Dark Age

Chapter 25 Shadow Sneak
At noon the next day, Ye Mo arranged Xiyan at home, and went to the barracks alone. He didn't want "thieves" to enter the room again when he came back.

At noon in Qiantang City, it was hazy, pedestrians were in a hurry, they came out to look for food, their eyes were sad, the army's food was not enough to satisfy their appetites, there was no way to do that.

Ye Mo predicted that the food in Qiantang City will experience its first crisis in the third month of the end, and as long as it survives this crisis, the plants on the second layer of the abyss will come.

Although these plants are a bit too fierce, they can be eaten as long as they are killed, unlike carrion corpses and green goblin dwarves, who will be poisoned and die if someone eats them.

But as time goes by, gradually, more and more demon hunters and even ordinary people come out to hunt, because a rotting corpse or the head of an abyssal demon can go to the army to exchange for some food, and this has also made Qiantang City A little settled down for a moment.

But these people may never know that tens of thousands of demons and rotting corpses may have gathered just outside Qiantang City.

Demon frenzy!

This is the most troublesome thing for human beings in the last life. Every time the demon frenzy comes, there are countless casualties, even Ye Mo is very afraid.

The demon frenzy is divided into five levels, but the demon frenzy outside Qiantang City is the lowest level, the fifth level.

But Ye Mo knew that with the current strength of Qiantang City, not to mention the fifth-level demon frenzy, even thousands of demons organized to attack could destroy most of Qiantang City.

This is war, not battle.

There are only a few people killed and injured in a battle, and a war can affect at least tens of thousands of people.

The power of an individual is too small in a war of hundreds of thousands or even millions.

A demon frenzy at level five is nothing at all. For demon frenzy at level three and above, each leader is a genius who is proficient in tactics. They possess superb intelligence and think like humans.

Ye Mo once remembered that the most massive second-level demon frenzy in the previous life appeared seven years after the abyss descended. At that time, even if Yang Ou and Chen Zifeng joined forces, the capital protection area almost fell.

You know, these two people were the best among the demon hunters back then, and they were also tactical geniuses, but they still almost failed.

Ye Mo will never take the demon frenzy lightly, let alone his job change task.

And assassinating the leader of the opponent is often the most effective way.

This time the army found him, which meant that the situation had reached a very serious point.

However, the most dangerous thing to assassinate the leader of the opponent is not the demons outside, but the leader himself.

As the leader of a demon frenzy, not only must he have a high IQ, but he must also be extremely powerful.

It is very dangerous to rush to assassinate without knowing what kind of abyssal demon the opponent is.

……

While thinking about the problem, Ye Mo quickly came to the barracks and was taken to an office by an officer.

The office is spacious and simple, with a large conference table in the middle. Because it is in the military camp, there is sufficient power supply here.

Someone brought tea, and the general was in a meeting, so I asked Ye Mo to wait for a while.

Ye Mo took a sip of tea, stood at the window and looked towards the barracks.

Not far away, some soldiers were doing high-intensity training with their upper bodies bare. That kind of training has far exceeded the limit of human beings.

Ye Mo sensed it, and found that the team was all demon hunters.

"As expected of an army, there are so many demon hunters."

Armored vehicles and tanks drove by, and the entire military camp was in full swing. In the end of the world, only the army can restrain large-scale demons.

Ye Mo knows that the general here is Zhang You. In fact, he is very familiar with this person, and he can even be said to be an old friend from the previous life.

The door opened.

Zhang You walked in.

Ye Mo's gaze also looked at the same time.

Zhang You is really handsome. His appearance has the toughness of a soldier, but also the kindness of an elder. There are some wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, which are clear and bright. Unlike other generals, he always has a smile , which made his subordinates get closer to him.

Ye Mo really knows him too well. According to what his second brother Chen Zifeng said, Zhang You is so cunning that you can't even give him a pack of facial tissues for safekeeping.

Everything is a disguise.

Zhang You in the previous life attempted to seize the capital protection area. This person was very ambitious and difficult to deal with. He was clearly a demon hunter, but he never revealed his identity.

While Ye Mo was looking at Zhang You, Zhang You was also looking at him.

In fact, he was not in a meeting just now, but was looking at the information about this person sent by his subordinates.

He was slightly surprised by the contents of the information.

He didn't expect Ye Mo to know Yang Ou and Chen Zifeng.

And grew up in the same orphanage.

With a smile on his face, Zhang You walked straight to Ye Mo's side, then patted him on the shoulder heavily, and said with a hearty smile, "I finally found you. It turns out that you are such a young master."

"I am the general here. Everyone in Qiantang City should know my name, so I won't introduce you. Come, sit down."

As he said that, he pulled Ye Mo to sit beside him.

Enthusiastic like an elder, if you don't know someone, I'm afraid you will have a good impression of this person in the first place.

Ye Molian said: "Don't dare, dare not." Then he stood up, showing the behavior that an ordinary person should have when he sees a senior general in the army.

Ye Mo smiled, but he was thinking in his heart whether he should kill him now.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Even after the end of the world, the struggle among people has never stopped.

Especially with the emergence of protected areas, when people's lives are a little more comforting, some ambitious people are ready to move.

What's more, people like Zhang You who hold military power and are deeply loved by soldiers.

This friend will cause too much danger to Lin Qianye in the future.

But if he was killed right now, he might not be able to walk out of the gate of the barracks.

What's more, even Ye Mo has to admit that although Zhang You has a different heart, he is really good at leading the army. If Qiantang City loses him, it will fall soon.

Ye Mo immediately dismissed this idea.

According to his plan, this year he will quietly dormant in Qiantang City, try to spend a year to upgrade to level 10, and then start the city lord trial mission.

And during this year, he will slowly enter the army, at least he must be well-known in the army, which will also help him control the army in the future.

He is doing his part to help Lin Qianye lead the capital reserve in the future.

The situation in Qiantang City is more comfortable than people expected or the doomsday in science fiction. Only Ye Mo knows that the appearance of the second layer of demons in the abyss will be the real loss of life.

"Let's make a long story short, you should know the mission this time." Zhang You entered the mode of talking about business.

"I don't know the details yet, do you have any detailed information?" Ye Mo didn't make it difficult for him here, he was too happy to be able to use the power of the army to complete the job transfer task.

"Information is very important..." Ye Mo paused, and suddenly seeing Zhang You's face, he frowned and said, "Could it be that the army doesn't have any information?"

Zhang You was helpless: "There is no information. We have sent out several scouts, but even if the thieves went there, only one came back, and only saw large-scale green goblins and rotting corpses."

"No information at all?"

"There is still a little bit. The number of the other party is about [-]."

Ye Mo secretly sighed in his heart, it might as well not have it.

Once the demon frenzy is launched, it must be at least level five, and the number of demon frenzy at level five is between [-] and [-].

"I sent two teams, one of which is led by you, and the two teams are divided into two groups." Zhang You said.

Ye Mo was puzzled, he thought he was here to play the role of a team member, but he didn't expect to become the main force.

"General, do you believe in my strength so much?"

Zhang You said with a smile: "I believe my information, you are at least level 5."

"By the way, our mission will start at noon tomorrow. I have assigned a few soldiers to you. Here is their information. You can take a good look at it. For this mission, the army can pay 500 contribution points in advance. If it is successful , then the reward is also huge.”

Five hundred contribution points?
Although it's a little less, don't let it go in vain.

Zhang You seemed to have something else to do, Ye Mo got to know it a bit, and left here.

……

When Ye Mo left the office, a muscular figure came up from the window.

"How?" Zhang You looked at his beloved general and smiled.

"Barely, I hope it doesn't hold me back." Tang Chen said lightly.

"You..." Zhang You shook his head and smiled.

After Tang Chen left, Zhang You had been standing in the meeting room. After an unknown amount of time, a figure suddenly appeared in a dark corner.

A black-robed man appeared from the shadows. If Ye Mo was there, he would know that this man's strength is at level 8, because only level 8 thieves can learn a skill - shadow stealth.

"General." The black-robed man was very respectful to Zhang You.

"Tomorrow's task, you also keep up. No matter whether Ye Mo completes the task or not, he will be killed in the end." Zhang You said calmly, and then the black-robed man re-integrated into the shadows.

"It's a pity. I originally wanted to win you over because of your strength...but..." Zhang You shook his head, he would not be wrong.

Everyone has desires and goals.

Tang Chen's goal was to defeat Yang Ou, and the purpose of the black robe just now was to repay his friend Zhang for saving his life.

"Power, wealth, beauty..." Zhang You mentioned it in front of Ye Mo just now, but although the other party was a little excited, his eyes did not change at all.

This young man is dangerous.

He can't read it, and he can't see through it.

Zhang You doesn't know what Ye Mo needs, this is the scariest thing.

Under the dim sky, Zhang You didn't know that a pair of slightly cold eyes saw everything just now.
