Empire of Shadows

Chapter 62: Delayed rescue

Views:

"Sir, look! Over there is our military camp. Over there is...ah! Over there is our army, sir, shall we go and take a look?"

"Let's go take a look!" As soon as we walked out of the forest, we saw a large group of soldiers lined up on the side where we started, preparing to march into the forest. Above them, there were several magicians (wind magicians) wearing light blue clothes floating. It seemed that this must be a message sent by Thacker and his men, and those troops were ready to support and search for us. Pulling Yaruo onto the horse, we, three of the four, ran towards there.

"Stop, who are you... Ah! Sir, you are out too? That's great." After seeing me clearly, a squadron leader wearing the insignia of the Flame Legion happily pulled my reins and headed towards the place where the rescue team was most concentrated.

When he saw Yaruo behind me, he obviously looked like a pig brother, but he quickly came to his senses and began to concentrate on leading the way. From this point, it can be seen that the Flame Legion is worthy of being the elite in the words of Thacker. I think I have also experienced the test of various beauties on the Internet in reality, but when I first saw Yaruo, I was even worse than him and almost drooled all over the floor.

Soon, we approached the group of people. To my surprise, the two team leaders, Thack and Wink, had left the jungle earlier than us. They were nervously issuing a series of orders and sending teams of soldiers slowly into the jungle.

As we approached, Thacker immediately spotted us, the oddballs on horseback (the search team was all infantry). I was very happy that when Thacker saw me, his eyes lit up, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he looked much more relaxed. Although he still dispatched and commanded the soldiers into the forest, I knew that I did have a certain weight in his heart.

"Hanlong, how are you? Are you hurt? Do you want me to call a magician to heal you?" After handing over the command to an officer, Sack came towards me.

"Thank you for your concern, sir. I am fine. My two guards and I are reporting to you safe and sound." Seeing Sack's relaxed look, I made a little joke and adjusted my mood at the same time.

"Hey, it seems you have a good harvest! You only have three guys and you managed to get such a difficult elf. It seems that you have reaped a lot of rewards in this operation!" When I dismounted and saluted Sack, Yaruo, who had been hiding behind me, inevitably appeared in Sack's sight.

"Sir, the elf of the Hanlong Division Commander is not only a young elf as you said, but also a great elf with dual attributes of Feng Shui. Her Ice Arrow subordinates have learned a lot." Before I could speak, a guard told me about Yaruo's situation. Hey, they are still Sack's people after all!

"Lord Sack, in addition to this, we also brought back a six-color elf. With this, I think I will have a great chance of entering the Imperial Magic and Martial Arts Academy. I would like to ask for a long vacation from you here." Since he couldn't hide it, it would be better for him to confess first, and he could also make a good impression.

"Oh, six-color elves! They are worth a lot of money if sold. I heard that many high-level alchemists are trying to use six-color elves as a primer to improve the magic shields of large cities. Now the price of six-color elves has increased a lot..."

"Sir, I have signed a contract with her. Look, it's this little fellow." Suppressing the dissatisfaction in my heart, I pretended nothing had happened and took the six-colored elf out of the breastplate.

"How could this happen? Don't you know... Didn't you two tell your division commander?" When Sack said the last sentence, his face was so grim that even I almost shivered. My two guards, who were the first to bear the brunt of it, could not bear it anymore. They quickly knelt on the ground and reported the whole incident in detail.

"Damn you..." After hearing his subordinates' words, Sack's face was gloomy. "Don't worry, Hanlong. Your main responsibility in the army is not to fight directly, so you don't have to care about these things. And the six-color elves are not bad, at least you don't have to worry about what your attributes are. And according to the 50% increase in magic power of the six-color elves, it is almost certain that you will enter the Magic and Martial Arts Academy, and I won't have to think of any way for you. Well, if you are worried about your own safety, I can arrange a senior swordsman to be your bodyguard. I think you don't have to worry about anything. In addition, regarding that Krad and the other bitch, we will have a chance in the future. I promise to find a chance for you to get rid of this breath!"

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. I will follow your arrangements." After hearing what Thacker said, I hurriedly thanked him and followed his arrangements. To be honest, I was not very angry about signing the six-color elves. What made me most angry was that the two guys whose lives I just saved actually played tricks on me and framed me in this way. I couldn't swallow this breath no matter what. As for Thacker's arrangements, I had nothing to say. After all, what was the concept of arranging a senior swordsman as my bodyguard? It was almost like asking someone of the same level as me to be my bodyguard! (As long as you know a little about marching and arranging formations, a senior swordsman is almost equivalent to a division commander) This face was already given enough, and it also showed how much Thacker valued me.

"Okay, go back and have a rest first. I think we can rescue most of the people tonight, and I'll calm you down then. To be honest, we were too careless this time. We didn't expect that there would be a group of high-level monsters here. Not only did we not gain much, but we almost got everyone into trouble. Next time if we have the opportunity to act again, we must not be careless again. Okay, go back, I'll let someone lead the team for you..."

After thanking Sack for his kindness, I took Yaruo and followed a group of soldiers back to the barracks. The two guards had to stay there to assist the search teams in finding other people who had run away. Of course, they were only the main people who had run away. Those ordinary soldiers, if they were lucky, might be rescued by the way. If they were unlucky, they could only hope for the best.
