The security team doesn’t even know how many days they have been deployed today. That group of people are just like cowhide plasters, they stick again after being peeled off.
Moreover, these people were very skilled at running. Yuan Yuanyuan saw them several times running like dogs, while the people in front ran happily while those behind were chasing them breathlessly.
"What exactly do these people do?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked curiously during a meal one day.
"I'm not sure, but this trick is really good." said the proprietress.
Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly realized something. No wonder she said she liked those guys so much. It turned out that they were so skilled at running away. She might have silently seen her own shadow in them...
I've heard about this for a few days now. The security team can't do anything about them. They can't hit them, and they run away when they get close, so they just put up a human-shaped sign there. When Yuan Yuanyuan heard about it, she was furious...
They probably hoped that this thing would work like the scarecrow that scares sparrows, but it didn't. This time, after these people came, they didn't even look at it, and continued to hammer at the blue protective shield...
Yuan Yuanyuan heard that the security team was recently thinking about making an enhanced illusion-shaped human stand to be more frightening.
…These people are bored every day.
"Is it true that the team can't be found?" Fanning frowned and asked, "This shouldn't be the case... Could there be something wrong with our information?"
Changsheng, who was sitting next to him, slowly wiped his Guandao. After hearing this, he turned around and comforted him, "It's okay. Maybe they didn't leave any descendants, so there's no need to worry about this."
"How is it possible..." Fanning said, "There were so many monsters here at that time, there were dozens of big monsters alone. With so many monsters, how is it possible that there was not even one female monster?"
"Most of the female monsters have been assigned to the medical team or the spy camp. There are really few female monsters on the northwest front. Don't disbelieve me." Changsheng said, "After all, a large part of the female monsters are flowers, plants or small animal monsters... The climate in the northwest is not very friendly to them. It's not that there are none, but compared to male monsters, their number is very small."
"So what should we do if we need a female monster to perform a mission?" Fanning asked curiously.
"Just use the method that was more common back then." Changsheng said, "But I also read it from a book, so I might be wrong."
"It's okay, go ahead." Fanning said.
"It's like they randomly picked one among the monsters and suddenly saw that you were pretty, so they picked you to pretend to be a woman." Changsheng patted Fanning's shoulder, "Then they said you were you."
"... What?" Fanning was a little confused.
"If you are to be sent out on a spy mission, you will have to dress like a woman in the camp and speak in a woman's voice. It is much easier for monsters to do such things than for us. You are not allowed to expose yourself too much in front of others."
"... Na Yuan... Could it be that he was also cheated by this kind of cheating method back then?" Fanning didn't know why, but his thoughts suddenly turned to a very strange place.
Of course, he kept this in mind and didn't say it out loud. After all, there were many descendants of the spy camp in the team. What if he touched their sensitive spots
Having stayed in the Northwest for a long time, Fanning is ready to go back. The military forces in various places are actually not enough. If there is nothing to do in the Northwest for the time being, he will rush to other places.
However, just as he got up to leave, something suddenly happened that made him stay.
"I heard you want me to stay here for a while?" Fanning asked, "Why?"
"It's not that simple here in the northwest." The person who was talking to him was a man Fanning knew a long time ago. His name was Wang Yun, and he always had a smile on his face. "I heard that the King of Hundred Demons might send someone here soon."
"How do you know?" Fanning asked in surprise.
Yuan Yingli hasn't spread the news yet.
Wang Yun smiled mysteriously and didn't say much.
This person is a local boss in the northwest. When Faning came here, he first consulted with him before he dared to carry out the following series of activities here. However, Faning was not very clear about the power of the other party, and only had some guesses.
This person must be extraordinary. Fanning had only come into contact with him a few times in recent days, but he could already tell from his style of doing things that although this person looked very frivolous on the surface, he was actually very cautious in his heart.
It shouldn't be such a simple thing for him to say such a thing.
Despite this, Fanning still suspected that this story was fake. As a result, a day later, a little monster with scars all over his body was found lying there.
Fanning recognized this little monster. He was one of the ones who left with Yuan Ying.
The little monster was quickly brought back, and after being properly treated, he opened his eyes and said something.
"The King of Hundred Demons may send someone here soon."
After saying this, the little monster fainted again.
After hearing the news, Fanning stopped again in the northwest with peace of mind.
Of course, staying here is not without other uses. Fanning can learn about the customs and habits of the northwest, and can also take proper care of the civilian monsters living here.
Fanning had heard about the situation in the northwest before, but he didn't have an accurate understanding.
However, after watching it recently, he had a deep understanding of this, which is definitely not something that can be described from the mouths of others.
Maybe this place was once very prosperous, but now it has become a kind of hell on earth. Many monsters are not suitable for the local climate. Fanning has learned these days that those old people are not really old people. Many of them are in the prime of their lives.
Of course, even monsters in their prime can live longer than humans in their old age. There are still a dozen monsters that participated in that war living here, but there are no humans from that era anymore, because they have basically reached the limit of human lifespan.
The reason why they have become like this kind of old people now is because they are extremely unable to adapt to the climate here, and there are also some sequelae left from the excessive use of demonic power back then. It can be said that people of that era actually lived a miserable life now, much more miserable than now.
A group of people abandoned by the times.
Fanning had a lot of things in his mind, but whether from his position or identity, he was not suitable to do much. The people who really came forward were the people from the anti-war organization and the descendants of the spy camp.
They also understand these people better, so what they do is usually on point.
One day when Fanning was walking around, he suddenly heard a very old monster asking a man from the spy camp, "Girl, please tell me... Whose subordinates are you?"
"We are Yiqi's subordinates." The young female monster from the spy camp said with a smile.
"Yiqi's subordinates?" The monster's eyes widened after hearing this. "… Master Yiqi?"
"Wait a minute." Fanning, who was watching from the side, suddenly felt that the old man's mood was a little off. He turned around and asked, "Don't they... know that Yiqi has now become Yuan?"
"I don't know." Changsheng said, "This place is originally inhabited by monsters, and there are almost no humans living here. Have we met any people along the way? And after the war ended, they never left this place."
Fanning was stunned. Only then did he suddenly realize that the people here not only lived in poverty, but were also very isolated. They were even like the people of the Ming Dynasty who hid away to avoid the rule of the Qing Dynasty. They hid for many years and had almost no contact with the outside world.
But if we had been hiding back then, perhaps the changes wouldn’t have been as drastic as they are now, but now the world is completely different after just a few years.
Since they have almost no contact with the other settlement and the young rarely return, they have little exposure to human things.
They may not have experienced a night of demons roaming in high-rise buildings, nor have they seen what modern humans are like.
They may not even know Ji Qiu.
In their minds, perhaps the only remaining impression is of the war that year.
Fanning became interested at this point. He walked over and asked the monster who had just been chatting happily with the female spy, "What was Yiqi like back then?"
"Who are you?" The old monster looked up at him.
The female spy next to him turned around and gave Faning a blank look. Faning felt embarrassed. He had just called him by his name without adding the word "Adult". This might have made the monster and spy feel uncomfortable, but he had been with Yiqi for such a long time, and it felt weird to add the word "Adult" now.
At this time, the female spy next to him saved Fanning. She said, "This man is the apprentice of Master Yiqi."
"Master Yiqi's apprentice?" After hearing this, the monster turned around and looked at Faning in a daze. Faning's heart moved, and he quickly said, "I am actually a monster. This is all my disguise. If you don't believe me, just watch me change back and show you." As he said that, his body was filled with monster aura.
"He really is Master Yiqi's disciple." After seeing this, the monster almost knelt down to Faning, which scared Faning. He and the female spy next to him persuaded the monster to come over, and saw tears on his face.
"Master Yiqi... you are such a good man..." the monster said to Fanning.
Fanning was suddenly stunned when he heard the monster crying.
He was stunned for a moment, then slowed down his voice and said to the monster, "Can you tell me about it?"
