Wu control the world

When Lin Xi took a closer look, he found that eight scouts disguised with leaves and branches had appeared out of nowhere, and each of them pointed a heavy machine crossbow at themselves.

If it had been placed an hour earlier, he could have spotted the eight scouts in advance with his divine sense, no matter how much the opponent held his breath, but just now when he was distracted and anxious, he didn't take into account the movement around him, That's why the current situation of being besieged by people has been created.

However, Lin Xi was still not panicked at all. Facing the scouts from the army, it would not be difficult to deal with them.

"Nuo Qi's people." Lin Xi stood still and replied coldly, while observing the eight people 20 meters away with the blurred light.

"I rely on!"

At the juncture of the cold confrontation between the two sides, a sudden outburst of words dissipated the hostile atmosphere without a trace.

"Linxi, is that you?" The one who spoke was still a rascal.

At this moment, Lin Xi finally recognized who it was from the voice. "Fatty Weisuo, it's you!"

"Your uncle Linxi, why did you change into such a lifeless ghost? If I hadn't been quick-witted and recognized your voice just now, I'm afraid that the tragedy of brothers killing brothers will be staged in this dense forest."

A carefree voice sounded, who is it not the fat man Weisuo whom he hasn't seen for a long time?

Lin Xi's restless heart suddenly became happy. After all, it was a joy to see a good friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time in this kind of place.

But just as he was about to quarrel with Fatty Weisuo, another familiar voice sounded.

"Linxi, it's really you!"

Lin Xi was even more excited, and hurried forward, and said as she walked, "Kekan, I didn't expect you to come too, hehe, this is really great!"

Except for Anthony who is still in Chulin College, Kekan and Wei Suo are Lin Xi's best brothers. Seeing them all at once, Lin Xi is naturally happy.

It's just that even though she was happy and excited at this moment, Lin Xi still didn't forget her mission for this trip, so after the hug, she only greeted briefly and warmly, and Lin Xi was ready to leave.

"Kokan, Wei Suo, why are you lurking in Appomato's territory and performing missions?" Before leaving, Lin Xi asked the last question.

Immersed in the warm atmosphere of the brothers' meeting, the two and Lin Xi had already lowered their bodies and hid in the dense forest, and their voices were also kept low, in order not to let outsiders find out. As for the remaining six scouts, they naturally Everyone has heard of Lin Xi's heroic deeds in the Northern Army, so apart from lurking seriously at this time, they have no intention of blaming Lin Xi for disrupting their mission.

It's just that Lin Xi knew better about the duties and discipline of the Northern Army, so he wanted to leave as soon as possible, not wanting to embarrass the soldiers who were performing their missions.

But when he heard Lin Xi's question, even the thick and fat Weisuo who was used to hip-hop on weekdays rarely changed from a smiling face to a bitter one, looking very worried.

"What's going on? What trouble did you run into?" Seeing Wei Suo's expression, Lin Xi knew that something was wrong. Leaving aside his relationship with Wei Suo Kokan, he had always had feelings for the Northern Legion. With a sense of concern and a sense of genuine affection, I naturally don't want to see the soldiers from the Northern Legion grimacing when they encounter trouble.

"Our head hasn't come back yet." Wei Suo said helplessly.

"You mean Commander Marton." Lin Xi was referring to the current commander of the Heavy Knights, General Marton.

"Hmm." Wei Suo nodded, with a deep worry in his lowered voice, "Captain Marton personally led our elite team to ambush in the territory of Appomato, in order to ensure that the latest movement of the enemy country can be detected as soon as possible. , but at noon, Captain Marton suddenly left us an instruction to stand by, and then disappeared. I thought he had discovered some important information and needed to follow him secretly, and he would come back naturally after completing the mission. It's dark, and the leader is still missing."

Lin Xi also frowned after hearing this.

Of course he knew what it meant that even the heavy cavalry regiment sent out elite fighters, and the head of the regiment personally led the team to scout for news.Indeed, at the sensitive time when the Holy See was under siege, it was a military need to find out the movements of the enemy country Appomato as soon as possible, and it was a need to defend the tens of thousands of civilians behind the city of Ovi where the Northern Army was stationed.

"Then the other investigation teams didn't find it either?" Lin Xi asked.During the previous march, he found several groups of scouts who were secretly lurking and whose identities were unknown. Now that he thought about it, there must be scouts from the Northern Legion among them.

"There is no information from the brothers' reconnaissance unit in front." Kokan took over the conversation and said, "Our station is the closest to the border, and the regiment leader left from here in the direction of Appomato, so, If the other reconnaissance units don't find it, it means that the regiment commander must still be in Appomato, and he didn't go around us and go back to the rear."

"Wait a minute, General Marton has rich experience on the battlefield and is very strong, so he won't encounter any disaster so easily. I came here from Appomato, seventeen miles away, along the dense forest. I didn't see any fights, and I didn't find any suspicious masters, so General Marton must still be on a mission at a secret location, and he couldn't get away for a while and couldn't come back."

Lin Xi was busy reassuring, and at the same time thought that this was the reason why General Marton did not show up for so long.

"Linxi's analysis is that apart from observing the movement of the enemy country, we can only wait. By the way, Linxi, why did you return to this place from Appomato?" Kekan asked immediately.

Originally, the matter about the guards transporting the magic crystal long-range cannon was a top secret, even people who are familiar with it can't disclose it, but now Wei Suo and the others have been staying here since the morning, maybe they found something. , if you can get something useful from here, it is very valuable.

Besides, Lin Xi doesn't need to explain this top-secret mission clearly in front of her friends, she only needs to ask vaguely.

"Weisuo, Kekan, have you found a hunting team of more than 40 people here? Are they all dressed as ordinary hunters?"

"No, although this place is not dangerous, nor does it go deep into the hinterland of the dense forest, but there are still monsters that appear occasionally. Besides, there are also swamps and poisonous snakes here. Orion hunters generally don't go this way, but like 40 A hunting team composed of multiple people is possible, but unfortunately, I didn't find it."

Wei Suo talked for a long time, but he still didn't say anything.

Lin Xi felt a little disappointed, so she was about to stand up and say goodbye, and continued to search for the whereabouts of the guards in the direction of Appomato. At this moment, Kekan seemed to remember something, and looked at Fatty Wei Suo and said, "Fatty, we are in Nuo Didn’t we happen to see such a hunting team in tattered clothes in its territory? Captain Marton told us to ignore it.”

"Yes, yes, yes, yes," Wei Suo patted his fat head, and said annoyedly, "How could I have forgotten this? There is such a thing. At that time, the hunting team was less than a hundred meters away from us. On a difficult road where no one has ever walked, our team leader wanted to go up and question him, but was stopped by the team leader, saying that people from the Nuoqi Empire would not be our enemies."

Lin Xi was naturally very happy.Of course he understood that Captain Marton must have received an order from His Majesty Jason at the same time. This time, he sent a large number of scouts to detect the movements of the enemy country. In fact, he had a deeper purpose, which was to protect the safety of these guards. .

According to what Kekan and Weisuo described, based on time, the forty guards should indeed have entered Appomato from the border, but why did they not find any trace of them after careful investigation all the way?

"Fatty, your people didn't find them anymore?" Lin Xi asked immediately.Because the location where Fatty and the others were lurking was not far from the only way the guards had to pass, the high-level officials of the Northern Legion had considered it carefully.

"No, I didn't find it. It's been fine here, except for your sudden entry." Wei Suo replied.

"Could it be that the guards encountered an irresistible danger in the territory of the Nuoqi Empire?" Thinking of this possibility, Lin Xi's expression became very ugly.

Before, he deduced from the time, distance and common sense that the guards would never stay in the territory of the Nuoqi Empire, but according to Wei Suo’s description, and the fact that he searched carefully along the way but found nothing, the guards are still in the territory of Nuoqi. A certain location is very likely.

"Weisuo, Kekan, I still have something urgent to do. I have a chance to get together with my brothers in the future. Now I have to go. By the way, I have to stay calm while lurking. I believe General Marton will come back safely."

No matter how polite you are, after speaking, Lin Xi got up and ran towards the Nuoqi Empire.

In only half an hour, the dense forest would be plunged into darkness, and he had to find the missing forty guards within this time.
