<h4>Chapter 713: The Enemy Attacks Once Again!</h4>
“Brother Feng, this ruin is so huge. Your city-building this time should need to engage some help, right?” Watermelon Skin asked Feng Luo, along with the three of them , about the city-building matter.
Sk and Ion me exchanged nces, looking towards Dan Hen who seemed he wanted to say something, but only lowered his head and remained silent.
Atst, Ion me could not help but tell Feng Luo, “Hmm… Definitely needed!”
Feng Luo nodded in affirmation.
The total number of yers of Nightless Club was no more than over 1,000, whereasbat yers were only over 700 people.
With such manpower, it was really insufficient to clear out the Underground ruin, even though NPCs’ help was avable in the n. They would definitely, nheless, need to engage a part of the people to participate in the clearing mission.
“Well then, Big Brother Feng, could we join?” Sk instantly spoke, sounding a little urgent.
Hearing this, Feng Luo did not immediately respond. He carefully considered Sk’s offer. Then collecting himself, he said with a smile, “Of course! You’re most wee. With experts like you and Brother Ion joining to help us, we’re absolutely fortunate.”
The reason why Feng Luo was taken aback by Ion me’s and Sk’s words was because from what he knew, the battle between the Veterans Tribe and the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group these days after the fall of Silvermoon City had not ended yet.
After the Veterans Tribe people had been driven out of Silvermoon City, they had stationed themselves at a system city near Silvermoon City, then especially took up camp missions rted there. A battle ensued with the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group almost every day.
As such, although the city-building ruin-clearing required manpower, where the Veterans Tribe and Nightless Club yers previously had experience in cooperating in clearing the ruin before, along with the rtionship among Feng Luo and Dan Hen, ck Rose, and the others making them the best candidates, Feng Luo had not initiated the invite.
He thought that in such a situation, the Veterans Tribe clearly did not have time to spare some manpower toe over and help.
As the guild’s main elite team, it was understandable that Dan Hen andpany took some time to do a mission. After all, most missions were of limited time and needed to bepleted as soon as possible.
However, staying back to help Nightless City do city-building clearing was not really possible.
Then again, who would have thought that Ion me and Sk would have initiatively brought up this matter?
In such a situation, he naturally would choose to agree.
However, this situation that just happened was slightly strange, as Ion me and Sk’s we clearly did not refer to just the two of them, but to the entire Dan Hen team.
Logically, such a decision typically shoulde from Dan Hen as the team leader, but he had been silent.
Of course, he did not object either.
But such silence, along with his observation at the moment that had actually noticed the reactions of the three of them, had made Feng Luo feel a little confused.
Naturally, he would not speak up about this confusion.
The participation of the Dan Hen team was truly a pleasant surprise.
He was very clear about the ability of the Dan Hen team. Everyone was good that they could definitely be seen as elites even in thebat teams of big guilds such as the Nine Star Guild.
Not to mention that the ability of Dan Hen himself was at the level of top experts!
With their participation, the ruin-clearing mission, needless to say, had an extra portion ofbat power.
“Right, Brother Feng. If we, the Nightless City, built our station here, would it be under the threat of that so-called ‘Freedom g’ NPC force in the Death Forest?”
Upon confirmation about joining the Nightless Club, My World had already brought his own position into the guild and probed.
“Don’t worry about this…” Feng Luo smiled reassuringly.
…
Time gradually past with their conversation. It was already four in the morning, and the sky was at its darkest before dawn.
Beep. You have an automatically received message.
Feng Luo’smunicator received a notification.
“All has been well prepared. We’ll be arriving in about half an hour,” Mu Wu announced from themunicator.
“Alright!” Feng Luo eximed.
He thenmunicated the situation to Mu Wu, then sent the videos recorded by Mu Zi and the others before hanging up.
Everything was going smoothly. Since Mu Wu already received Feng Luo’s messages, it meant that he should be at a distance of within 100 kilometers from them already.
In the game, as the air had a lot of disrupting substances and maic fields, if both yers were in the wild, they would not be able to connect if they were over 10 kilometers.
However, if one party was in a city or possessed the map of themunication towers, or if they carried instruments that strengthened connection effect, the range would be expanded.
Something worth mentioning was that it was heard that the Federal government had already researched a newmunication tower and would set it up in many important maps, whereby the connection range would no longer be restricted—this was actually one of the content in the system update this time too.
…
Rumble.
As time passed and it was 4:45 in the morning, a faint white-like belly of a marine creature appeared at the edge of Death Desert.
In the sky not far from where they were, a beam of light from a moving SUV appeared with a faint rumbling.
“Seems like they’re here.”
From the lookout on a mid-top level of this building, the faces of Watermelon Skin and the others were delightful.
“Hmm… Not right!”
At the back, however, Feng Luo’s face was somber.
It was not just him. Dan Hen and Ion me, as well as Mu Zi, Rose Thorns, and the rest were also not delighted, but rather stern.
“Old Wu is probably half an hour away,” Feng Luo began, “and there should be enough time in the middle for meeting some monsters. But even with good luck and no monsters were encountered, it should need at least one hour. Now it has only been over 40 minutes. It’s not the Nightless City people who’re here!”
Feng Luo looked at the time on the screen projected from Mu Zi’s wristband, which was the reason why he had made such a judgment.
“Then who could it be?” For a while, Azure’s eyes widened in disbelief, then she spoke again as she regained her senses. “The Freedom g people?”
“Ny percent possible. I’ll go and take a look,” Feng Luo said as he stood up, already holding the Wings of Death, and leaped out from an exit.
“Old Little Brother Feng, I’ll help you!”
Dan Hen jumped out and followed Feng Luo.
Scouts could shield the opponent’s Detection. Furthermore, they had a better effect the closer the range. Dan Hen was worried that Feng Luo would be discovered.
“Alright,” Feng Luo agreed.
On the military base sand, the yers’ corpses left behind from that battle in the middle of the night had already been cleared out.
The two Gunner yers both engaged Quick Sneak and quickly ran a distance and climbed up to the roof of a taller building in front of the military base, and hid themselves well.
Subsequently, they used their binocrs and looked towards the direction of the source of the noises.
The sounds came from behind the biggest sand dune. The beams of light from SUVs shot chaotically into the night sky, creating a glow of white light.
Judging from the beams of light, the number of SUVs definitely would not be small.
“At least over 50!” Dan Hen said as he held up his binocrs, his voice low.
…
Five minutester, the first Energy SUV entered the field of view of the two of them . Two Heavy Armored Warriors holding Alloy Shields stood on top, and between them stood a six-barreled machine gun.
Right after, the SUV was followed by the second, third…tenth…twentieth…
Each one was an Energy SUV of a different style modified to suit the desert terrain, sending up sand and dust as they entered the extended field of view of the two people.
Many of the SUVs had people standing at the top, most of them were Warrior yers, while there was also a part of them who were protected Gunners and Maniptors covered in force fields.
As they had yet to have enteredbat state, these people’s chests did not have the camp-signature red light. However, Feng Luo was already sure of their identities.
Among these people, no one was a Nightless City member whom he knew.
Rather, he saw a few people who had that kind of Golden Scorpion and Wolves marks from before.
In contrast with other yers, these few Golden Scorpion and Wolves people were more careful in action, as they hid their bodies’ critical spots behind the SUVs and shields.
Obviously, they were full of fear.
But they would not know.
At this point, Feng Luo decided against firing at all, as he turned a little grim just like Dan Hen beside him.
While there were already over 50 SUVs that entered their field of view and the number of people had definitely exceeded 200, there were actually even more from behind.
“Retreat!” Feng Luo decided as he exchanged nces with Dan Hen.
They hadpletely given up on attacking first, using the suddenness of the ambush and the long-range advantage to assassinate the opponent Machine Gunners or Medics, and other strategies. They were outnumbered. Obviously, engaging the opponents was futile.
The two of them turned back and jumped off the building from behind, rushing back to the underground-linked building where Mu Zi and the others were.
Seeing that the two had returned, Mu Zi immediately asked, “Brother Feng? How’s the situation?”
“It’s indeed the Freedom g yers. There are more than 200 of them!” Feng Luo said in a low voice.
“Two hundred people? That’s a lot!”
My World, Sk, and the others were shocked after hearing the news.
“Perhaps even more…,” Feng Luo added.
“I’m now really curious,” he continued, “about just how important your mission item this time is, actually letting so many Freedom g yers take the risk of meeting BOSSes and getting wiped out toe over here and chase us!”
Feng Luo knew that these people definitely would not deliberatelye over to avenge those yers they had previously killed.
The yers recruited by the Freedom g NPC armed force were all as small as the structures of small 100-men mercenary groups. In addition, these mercenary groups were vigorouslypetitive among themselves.
Hence, these few hundreds of people taking a huge risk to travel 100 kilometers in such a high-level map in the night clearly would not be to avenge two of theirpetitive opponents.
They would have epted a mission released by the NPCs, have been attracted by rich rewards, that was why they would once again form an evenrger team toe over and attack after both the Golden Scorpion and Wolves people had failed.
This absolutely proved that the mission item procured by My World and the others was definitely of extremely high value, but it was a shame that the mission item was, as they had said, being stored in an unopenable safe.
