I rely on you all to cultivate

Chapter 345 Contracting
Liu Tao's expression changed for a while, and he finally let out a sigh of relief: "I thought the Sixteenth team was acting together with you."

"Wang Shengli's team? Haven't seen him before."

Xu Ling called the team members to gather and walk back. The battle formation just now was spread out, "You don't think we killed too many monsters, do you?"

Liu Tao nodded reluctantly: "And it was too fast. We took a detour, and we had to walk an hour or so longer than you. Unexpectedly, we didn't catch up until here."

Xu Ling couldn't help being a little proud. He was very pleased with the team's praise.

Xie Yilang raised his head at this moment and said, "Brother Liu, why didn't you reveal your identity just now, it's so scary."

Liu Tao's face turned dark: "We were just getting close, and we were still more than 100 meters away from you. A bullet hit my face, and I fell directly on the ground."

It wasn't that Xie Yilang shot crookedly this time, because even though the magic crystal firearm had a longer range, his equipment was still a pistol after all, and the distance accuracy of 100 meters was no longer enough.

Liu Tao went on to say: "I still want to ask you, I just draw out my gun and shoot without asking, and when I'm done, just point your sixth-level bow at my face. Loud?"

Xu Ling pouted and nodded, "Indeed, Xie Yilang reacts really fast, if you open your mouth, he can really cum in your mouth in an instant."

Xie Yilang complained: "You guys approached sneakily, how would I know what is coming, in case it is a stealth monster, I must be on guard."

Liu Tao was also confident: "Hey, when marching in the field, you must move forward slowly, who would run amok in such a place."

"Our team."

Xie Yilang put his waist on a fork, and directly told Liu Tao that he was silent.

Can't refute.

Xu Ling smiled and led the people to the camping place. From this point of view, there were no major problems on both sides. The main reason was that the configuration of his team was too high, so Xie Yilang couldn't understand the behavior of the other party.

After returning to the camp, Liu Tao felt that something was wrong again. He saw that the members of Team Nine not only set up camp to fetch water, but also lit a fire to cook. When it was the most irritating time, the food used for cooking was carefully selected and cut from six-legged cattle. Ribs and bellies.

"You guys are here for an outing, right?" He couldn't help asking.

Xu Ling chuckled: "Life, oh, by the way, we only prepare meat for eight people, so...hehe, Brother Liu."

"Don't you just eat your own, who cares about yours." Liu Tao put his hands on his chest and snorted.

This made his team members want to cover his mouth.

Now that the sky is getting dark, it is not suitable to go hunting. Just now they were only on their way and didn't take the food by the way. In fact, they didn't even think about lighting a fire in the wild to avoid attracting monsters.

A few hours later, the smell of meat wafted out of the boiling pot. The fresh beef would not be unpalatable even without any spices, and the fishy smell would not be smelled after simply blanching.

It stands to reason that this kind of thing shouldn't be done at this time, but Meng Chi did just that.

Ever since, when Team Nine was stewing beef, Team Twelve could only watch and drool.

In the end, Liu Tao couldn't stand the team members' mad provocation with their eyes, so he could only approach him with smiles all over his face.

"Hey, Brother Xu, it's getting dark now, and you guys are still lighting a fire, aren't you afraid of attracting monsters?"

"Not afraid."

Xu Ling smashed the meat off the ribs in one gulp, and smacked his lips with a smile.

"Are you full? You can't just eat meat without some staple food. We also have compressed biscuits, so we can change it."

"Do you think we'll march outside without that?"

Liu Tao stared at the pot and licked his lips: "Then why do you still only eat meat?"

Xu Ling watched him silent for a while, then replied, "Because it's delicious."

"..."

In the end, Liu Tao received a small pot of steaming beef soup as he wished. Gao Fan saw how pitiful he was, so he divided his portion in half.

He and Meng Chi are the two most edible people in the team, so he gets a lot of food, and it doesn't matter if he misses a meal.

The little assistant originally reluctantly gave up part of his share, but when Liu Tao saw her teary face, he didn't have the nerve to take it.

The next day, the two teams began to work together to efficiently harvest the nearby monsters.

For these independent teams, there is a lot of freedom in clearing missions. Anyway, it is to clear some threatening mid-level and high-level monsters as much as possible, no matter what posture they use.

After the two teams merged, the number and strength of the two teams rose to a higher level. They ran rampant in the designated area and chased the monsters. They were so happy that they didn't even want to go back, so the chase lasted for ten days.

In the command branch of the Expeditionary Army in the Immortal City.

"How many teams have come back?"

Zhu Talan asked Chu Xiaojun, who looked at the summary information in his terminal and said, "Thirty."

"How's your goal?"

"About 80% of the area clearing goal has been completed, and the collection of overflowing magic crystals has exceeded the standard."

Zhu Taran frowned: "It seems that the actual density of monsters is higher than we planned, but the area target is still 20% away and they all returned. What do you mean?"

Obviously he is a little dissatisfied. The time limit for this task is one month. Since it has not been completed, why should they come back? Isn't this passive sabotage?

But Chu Xiaojun patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, the remaining 20.00% is contracted by the two teams that haven't come back yet."

Zhu Talan was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "Oh, Xu Ling, right, and which team is the other one?"

"Team No. 12, the captain is Liu Tao. Those who came back said that they joined together and acted together."

After hearing the answer, Zhu Taran's expression suddenly became very serious, and he tapped his fingers on the table, as if he was thinking seriously.

Seeing his reaction like this, Chu Xiaojun was a little afraid to speak, after all, he was in front of a general who was one level higher than himself, and there were rumors that he might become the next general when the situation in Xueyuan was completely settled.

"Could it be that you are not satisfied with this kind of cooperative behavior? Not at all, it's not a competition."

He thought secretly, and began to think in advance how to explain it later.

The silence lasted for a while, and Zhu Taran finally spoke.

"Which one is Liu Tao?"

It's just thinking about this when you make a face of criticism! !
Chu Xiaojun almost froze, opened his mouth, and finally just sighed, and then explained to him.

Zhu Taran nodded: "He is smart, he knows who to get closer to. I feel that Xu Ling should be removed from the 32 ranks. The ninth team is no longer in the same echelon as the other 31. "

"It's not necessary..."

Chu Xiaojun was a little unhappy. As long as Xu Ling stayed in the sequence of the independent tactical team, he was a member of his tactical team. If he wanted to go outside, it would be hard to say where he would go.

How could Zhu Taran not know what he was thinking, but he just smiled lightly and didn't speak.

At this time, Xiao Pingzi walked in from the door and said, "The remaining two teams have also returned."

The ninth team and the twelfth team are directly managed by her, and naturally report to her.

Zhu Taran raised his eyebrows: "Call them over."

After a while, Xu Ling and Liu Tao appeared in the corridor outside the door. Before anyone entered the room, the voice came in first.

"No, no, I really have to give that sixth-order wolf skull to me."

"Oh, I'm useful."

"I'm also useful. Ning Qingshuang's sword is still short of the last material."

"Hey, who is not?"

The two walked in while arguing, if Chu Xiaojun hadn't coughed, they might not have planned to stop.

Seeing that the two were still not convinced by each other, Zhu Taran could only shake his head and said, "Okay, stop grinning there, I'll make up for what you lack."

"thank you boss!"

The two changed their faces instantly and said in unison.

Zhu Taran was thoughtful: "Will you two play me?"
