Chapter 670: Enemy Attack!!!

~8 min read 1,409 words

"Wu..."

Early in the morning, Lan Qingyou, who was still in her dreams, felt her face was somewhat itchy.

As a result, reaching out her hand to scratch in a daze, she actually directly grabbed a small, soft thing.

"Wu?"

"Squeak."

Opening her eyes, what Lan Qingyou saw was a white and chubby little fellow with a vertical eye on its forehead.

"Didn't you, this guy, run away from home?"

Upon seeing it was the little fellow she hadn't seen for a long time, Lan Qingyou involuntarily laughed and dragged it into the quilt.

Actually, ever since Typhon City turned into Eureka, Lan Qingyou had already not seen this guy for a very long time.

Because of the reason that these two little fellows were basically always playing on the streets of Eureka or the branches of the Dwelling Giant Tree, Lan Qingyou also didn't go manage them.

Anyway, compared to the previous Typhon City, the current Eureka was much safer.

Added to the fact that because of the eye symbol everyone knew they were her familiars, so besides being safe, after seeing them they would also feed these two guys from time to time.

So the final result was that apart from her not being able to see them, they were doing very well in every aspect.

To the extent of even getting fat.

Of course, these two guys would still come back for a trip sometimes.

After all, although there was food and drink and play outside, after being out for a long time they always had to come back to connect feelings with Lan Qingyou and conveniently take a bath.

However, this also had a very large relationship with Lan Qingyou's idea of free-range raising.

Although other Witches would also allow their familiars to leave their sides, they absolutely wouldn't be like Lan Qingyou where not seeing them for several days or tens of days didn't matter.

"Where is Steel Wool? Didn't it come back together with you?"

Because they were free-range raised, Lan Qingyou specially opened a passage for these two little fellows inside the shelter.

Mm... it was rebuilt precisely from that water-release opening dug out in the potion field inside the shelter previously.

Anyway, for them, this kind of height of several meters fundamentally wasn't anything.

Not to mention that after the shelter gradually upgraded, this first floor which originally should have been at a height of over ten meters also gradually lowered in height to the point of currently only having a few steps.

So...

Little Spoon, who originally still needed Steel Wool to grab it to carry out transportation, turned into the level of being able to enter as a single mouse.

"Squeak squeak."

The questioned Little Spoon shook its head and cried out twice, then drilled into Lan Qingyou's embrace. Afterwards, it closed its eyes, seemingly enjoying the feeling of being held to sleep.

However, the current Lan Qingyou didn't have time to play with this guy.

After placing it in the warm quilt, she got up to wash up.

Today she needed to produce a batch of industrial magic golems for drawing Magic Arrays.

After all, the finished product had already come out, then the only matter remaining was mass production.

Of course, apart from Lan Qingyou having matters here, actually the entire flying city had matters.

Yesterday.

After the new version Magic Array was put into use and obtained success, Lan Qingyou issued a departure command to the [Steel Witch] Erica.

As for the target...

That was of course the Knight Order Garrison located in the middle of the continent—Twilight Canyon.

Taking her things and wanting peace and stability, that was impossible.

Not to mention whether there was interest or not, Lan Qingyou had to make them spit out even the principal.

Otherwise, she would be too much of a failure acting as this Clan Leader.

And the Knight Order far away in the middle of the continent fundamentally didn't know what was about to be welcomed above their heads; every day they still trained as they should, assessed as they should.

"Liu, you stay behind. The rest are dismissed."

This day.

After training ended, when the Knight Order members were preparing to rest, Liu Wei was called out by his own captain.

Originally he had already arranged with his teammates to go to the tavern to drink a couple cups after training ended. The result was good: he was directly caught by the captain.

With no choice, the dumbfounded Liu Wei could also only wave his hand to his teammates, and then fast-walked over to the captain's front.

"Captain, is there some matter?"

"Don't be nervous, Liu. It's a good thing."

Seeing the nervous look on the face of this young fellow in his twenties, this middle-aged captain revealed a smile and patted the other party's shoulder.

"A good thing?"

"Mm. The Knight Commander's side has already passed your review. I believe it won't take many days before you can become a squad captain."

The captain said with a smile.

This kid was the most diligent guy inside his squad.

Whether it was in the training camp previously, or after being promoted to an official member and evolving into the Void Race, he had consistently performed extremely well.

So under the circumstances of his own approval, he directly sent a promotion application to his Knight Commander.

As a result, he didn't expect it would actually pass on the first try.

So the captain immediately came to tell the other party this good news.

Promotion!!?

Upon hearing that he actually could become a squad captain, Liu Wei's heart thumped non-stop.

This news was truly too important to Liu Wei.

Back when his own younger sister became an Exorcist, she also tried to persuade them to become Exorcists together, but ultimately she was still persuaded to stop by him.

After all, the drawbacks of Exorcists were too obvious.

If the people in his own family all turned into that kind of guy who had to obey orders, then he didn't even dare to think what his family would turn into in the future.

To the point that back when his younger sister became an Exorcist, she hid it from him; otherwise, she wouldn't even need to think about acting as any Exorcist.

So under the circumstances of persuasion, he promised to let them all be able to obtain the Void Race's evolution items.

So whether it was in order to not be bothered by people, or to fulfill the promise, he extremely needed this position.

Although a squad captain wasn't some very big official, at least there was a channel to communicate upwards, wasn't there?

So after hearing this news, no matter how agitated and excited he was, Liu Wei's face maintained that calm and unhurriedness that he had consistently maintained since starting to enter the Knight Training Camp.

After all, what his own advantage was, he was extremely clear on.

Doesn't an upper official like these precisely like a subordinate like himself the most?

As expected.

After seeing that Liu Wei's expression didn't change even when facing this news, the captain slightly nodded very satisfied.

It was precisely because of this steadiness that he would utilize his own recommendation quota to recommend directly.

After all, people who trained hard were plenty, but a squad captain was for commanding combat.

So mentality was the most crucial.

"Alright, you should have an appointment with people, right. Then let's just end here for today. Take good care of your Griffin, and then you can be dismissed."

The satisfied captain didn't waste too much of Liu Wei's time.

After informing the news, he prepared to leave.

"Captain, it's so late now. How about going to drink a cup together? Also let me thank your recommendation a bit."

Liu Wei, who knew his own promotion definitely couldn't be separated from relations with the captain, called out to stop the other party.

In the aspect of Social Niceties, Liu Wei was still able to grasp it.

"Forget it, today..."

Shaking his head, the captain who was just preparing to reject Liu Wei seemingly saw some terrifying thing, and just as he opened his mouth he stopped his mouth.

"Captain?"

Liu Wei, feeling strange, gently called out a sound using a doubtful tone.

"Enemy attack!!!"

The captain yanked away Liu Wei in front of him, and then strained his voice shouting loudly at the surroundings.
