bad, i'm a fool

Chapter 90 Guards
On the school field of the General Directorate of the National Army, a group of five rows and five rows of soldiers stood upright under the sun, motionless like statues.

They have stood here since dawn, maintaining this meticulous appearance.

But it's not just wooden people who have been doing this for several hours. On the contrary, their attention is highly concentrated, and the muscles on their bodies are also relaxed and tightened in turn in the invisible armor, keeping them active at all times.

"Whoosh!"

There was a sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the air, and a golden light rushed towards the soldiers in the second row and the third row with lightning speed. The soldier stepped back and pulled out the sword around his left waist with his right hand. A sound blocked the golden light.

Almost at the same time, the four soldiers standing in front of him, behind him, on the left, and on the right drew their swords together, and came down from all sides with their swords, surrounding the uninvited guest who broke into the battle.

The dust fell slowly, but it was Li Zai who was under the swords of five soldiers.

A doppelganger of Li Jae, who was shining with blue-gold light.

The avatar slowly turned into a golden spot and disappeared. The five soldiers stood up straight, put their swords back into their sheaths, and stood back to their seats.

This kind of training has been done no less than [-] times this morning.

Such a morning has passed for no less than 20 days.

On the stands beside the school grounds, Li Zai was lying on a grand chair, with his feet up in the middle of the railings, playing with the front legs of the chair up, only the back legs were swinging back and forth, supporting him. own weight.

From bottom to top, the clone's light spot on the school field seemed to be blown back to Li Zai's position along with an invisible breeze.

He really didn't want to do this job of training personal guards.

But after all, he is a lieutenant of the Ministry of Xiu, and these guards will be assigned the most important task after all-to guard the undead emperor in a hostile neighboring country.

So Li Zai wanted to scold his mother very much.

Scolding the emperor's mother, or scolding the Tantai family's mother, is fine.

But today I can't scold.

He lowered his legs from the railing, and the chair returned to its original position. He stood up on the stand, stretched his arms, and yawned for a long time.

"Master Tantai, the training is going well, and I'm going to give them lunch later."

Li Zai looked at the soldiers in the school grounds and said without thinking.

"Li Buwei didn't go all out to train his subordinates. It's true that the corpse is a vegetarian meal. You should refer to the book."

A voice came from the stairs behind the stands, and with the sound of footsteps, Tantai in a short black robe walked up to the stands with a smile.

What was somewhat incompatible with his elegant attire was that he was carrying a big bow on his back—a very big and heavy bow, which made people think that the bow was not hunting ordinary prey.

Li Zai smiled wryly and turned his head: "Young Master, don't make fun of me."

Tan Taiming still had a smiling face like spring breeze and rain, showing a row of white teeth: "Call me Buwei, you and I are at the same level."

This is indeed true, Li Zai is the captain of the Xiu Department, and Tan Taiming is also the captain of the Injury Department in name, and they are indeed at the same level - except that Li Zai's father is not the chief of the national army.

"What a classmate, would you like to train me and test Li's achievements?"

Li Zai watched Tan Taiming take off the heavy bow and put it aside lightly, before he asked.

Tan Taiming did not refuse, he stood on the stand and looked at the soldiers standing in the school yard, and said to Li Zai casually: "Would Li Buwei give up these people to me? Too much damage."

"The wound is broken?"

Li Zai frowned: "Where is it broken?"

The loss of soldiers in the Injury Department is not a common occurrence. This is the branch under Tantai Ming who is responsible for the intelligence network of other countries. If Han Dongwen were to explain it, he would say that it was Simeng CIA.

The Simeng CIA was damaged, which meant the possibility of exposure.

Tan Taiming sighed lightly: "It's right here."

He looked down at the school field below.

here?

Li Zai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Xia..."

Right now, the training is for soldiers who will escort Han Dongwen to West Asia, so this school field naturally represents the Principality of West Asia.

"Why?" Lee Jae asked.

Tan Taiming shook his head: "I don't know, the conflict between the Catholic Church and the Grand Duke has become more and more intensified, and the internal cleaning of officials is also very frequent. Many people in the wounded department were eliminated during the cleaning."

"That is not bad."

Li Zai nodded——of course it is not good to lose manpower, but if he is eliminated in an internal struggle, it is not necessarily because of being exposed. Perhaps in the eyes of others, it is simply that he is on the wrong team.

"Does your lord know?"

Tan Taiming didn't speak, Li Zai understood - Tan Taifu naturally didn't know the news yet.

He looked around and took aim at the big bow: "Is this prepared for Mr. Zongsi?"

"Ah, yes."

Tan Taiming recovered from his thoughts, nodded lightly: "I hope he can be satisfied this time."

The two were silent for a while, Li Zai was about to say something more, but Tan Taiming stepped forward and patted his palms lightly.

"Crack, snap, snap."

The clapping sound was not loud, but the atmosphere in the school grounds was so tense and dignified. With this sudden sound, almost every soldier's ear muscles trembled. Pay attention to the direction.

"Third row, fourth row from west."

Tan Taiming spoke with a moderate voice.

The soldier he pointed to frowned, and quietly tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword.

Aware of the soldier's reaction, Tan Taiming's mouth showed a slight smile, he stretched out his right hand, pinched the palm of his hand into a two-finger sword gesture, and pointed at the soldier who had just called the roll.

"You keep a hand."

Li Jae made a sound.

Tan Taiming nodded with a smile, pointed at the soldier's arm and stretched it straight, suddenly a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he gestured towards the ground:
"fall!"

Almost at the same time, a heavy low cry came from above the soldier's head. Before he could react to what was going on, he suddenly staggered and fell on the ground unsteadily.

His body seemed to be hit from top to bottom by an invisible giant hammer. There was a muffled sound, and several cracks exploded on the blue bricks on the ground.

Lee Jae sighed.

Tan Taiming's expression didn't fluctuate, he just slowly pointed his finger at the next soldier again, and said:

"Fifth row, first column."

He paused for a moment, and also said in a low voice:
"fall!"

Exactly the same and confusing, the soldier who was targeted was knocked to the ground by an invisible sledgehammer. Although the soldier drew his sword this time, he didn't know where to stab at all.

"You are wrong."

Li Zai coughed: "This level of assassination is probably the official action of the Principality of West Asia. They..."

As he spoke, he looked back at the soldiers on the school field: "What they have to deal with is only the fanatics of the Catholic Church. Make sure that no such fanatics endanger the safety of His Highness."

Tan Taiming nodded slightly, and suddenly said: "Then what if the officials of the Principality of West Asia want to move His Highness?"

Li Zai sighed: "Then you and I should move."

"I?"

Tan Taiming was a little surprised.

"You said it yourself, you are at the same level as me." Li Zai smiled.

Tan Taiming suddenly laughed quite happily, he laughed a few times, turned around and left from the side of the railing, Li Zai was relieved in his heart.
