Chapter 1182: A Group of Cripples Come to Scout?

Hearing Ge Li's words, Qi Xiong and the others were stunned; this damn thing lets a soulless, spiritually blind guy be the commander of the scouting unit?

Just who the hell came up with this!

In the Demon Realm, Bei Zun sneezed.

"It looks like Ge Li and the others have made progress; not bad."

Qi Xiong and the others were truly dumbfounded; Bo Bo Ke was also dumbfounded. Seeing this, Ge Li nonchalantly glanced at the other demons behind him and said.

"What's the big deal? They're all like that."

"Back when we followed the Demon Emperor on campaigns abroad, we unfortunately fell into an ambush, causing our souls to be severely wounded; even so, we still carved a bloody path, earning military merit for our demon race."

"That's why the king established the scouting unit, to showcase our achievements."

Huh???

Upon hearing this, I don't know what Bo Bo Ke thought, but Qi Xiong and the others were completely dumbfounded.

"Turns out they're a bunch of battle heroes."

"But damn it, even if they're battle heroes, it's not that extreme."

"If you want to reward them, there are plenty of ways, but you instead turned a bunch of cripples into a scouting unit?"

Ge Li obviously didn't realize he was being spied on, and continued speaking.

"Many of them are even worse off than me; because their souls were severely wounded, not only is their spiritual sense useless, but their ears are also deaf."

Huh???

"Deaf? Fine, fine, fine—this demon race really opened Qi Xiong and the others' eyes today."

"Not having spiritual sense is one thing, but among this scouting unit of over two thousand, half are actually deaf, and the remaining half have impaired vision—not quite blind, but close."

"Damn, is this a scouting unit? What are you letting these guys scout?"

Staring blankly at the formation's light curtain, Qi Xiong and the others fell into a long silence.

However, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief; for now, it seems this bunch of cripples won't be able to detect He Yun and the others.

"A scouting unit made up of the blind and deaf—what's there to worry about?"

Qi Xiong looked at the formation's light curtain with a complex gaze and said to He Yun.

"Follow them, don't act rashly."

"Okay."

After thinking, Qi Xiong again gave a weirdly worded reminder.

"Be more careful."

"After all, the other side has two Demon Gods holding down the fort; when he said that, Qi Xiong felt something odd—careful of what?"

After hanging up the formation, Qi Xiong looked at the people present and asked.

"What do you all think?"

"Take them down?"

Shi Qingfeng said directly, "These are all food material; being deaf or blind doesn't affect the taste."

But Bai Zu, hearing this, shook his head and said.

"Improper."

"Lao Bai, what do you think?"

"I think we can turn their own scheme against them."

"Turn their scheme against them?"

"Not bad, this...... uh, cough, scouting unit came ahead to scout, preparing for the demon race's later attack."

"What's the problem with that?"

Everyone heard this information, even though Ge Li said it himself, but at this point some couldn't grasp Bai Zu's meaning.

Seeing this, Bai Zu didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly.

"This scouting unit, at most just over two thousand, under three thousand; even if we capture it, having two Demon Gods as food material would merely be a snack to whet the appetite."

"But if we let this scouting unit go back and give them the illusion that our Haotu World poses no threat and can be easily wiped out, then likely what will come is the demon race's main force."

"Then how many would that be? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands? Millions?"

"Anyway, no matter how you say it, as long as we get one wave, we can achieve food material freedom."

"By then, at least for a long time, we won't have to worry about demon race food material."

Huh???

"Upon hearing this, all the elders present lit up; this idea is great."

"Compared to this small scouting unit before us, the demon race's main force is clearly the main course."

"Capturing this scouting unit means little to us; as Bai Zu said, it's merely a snack."

"But if we can lure the demon race's main force, that's a wave of profit."

"Weighting the pros and cons, everyone naturally sees it clearly; thus, without much hesitation, the elders present all expressed agreement with Bai Zu's decision."

"As for how to lure them, it's simple—show weakness, put on an act; everyone's too familiar with that."

"Even the details were quickly settled."

"After finishing these, it was already mealtime; they went to the canteen for dinner, the elders returned to the main hall, and Qi Xiong contacted He Yun again."

"The formation connected quickly, but what came through was a roar."

"Roar roar roar................."

Huh???

"Junior brother, what's wrong?"

"Upon hearing these roars, Qi Xiong startled, then hurriedly asked, 'Could something have gone wrong?'"

Although this demon race reconnaissance unit is a group of cripples, their strength is there; if discovered, the consequences can be imagined.

Qi Xiong was a little worried, but soon the Formation Light Curtain projected a huge bonfire in the mountains and forests.

And the demon race gathered around the bonfire there, drinking and dancing; that howl was their demon race's song.

Seeing this, Qi Xiong and the others all fell silent.

"Nothing much, they're drinking and singing; they look almost drunk."

"Huh??? Drunk?"

Taking a closer look, sure enough, many of these demon race members were already swaying left and right.

"Damn it, drinking is one thing, but you actually don't use magic to dispel the alcohol's effect?"

"Who has a reconnaissance unit that can drink while scouting, and get roaring drunk at that?"

"Are you sure you're here to scout?"

The elders said we still overestimated these demon race.

Seeing their lively atmosphere, Qi Xiong saw nothing amiss, and immediately had He Yun and the others continue monitoring, contacting him immediately if anything happened.

After cutting off the formation, the elders' faces were somewhat complex; what exactly had they been worried about before?

And just as the formation was cut off, the Jade Pool Shèngzhǔ suddenly received a report from his subordinate elder.

It said they had found traces of demon race food material, and were now reveling in drinking and singing in the valley.

"Huh???"

"Good, very good, even the people below have discovered it, showing how arrogant these demon race are."

"You know, the elders didn't tell anyone about this; being discovered is entirely due to their own arrogance."

Upon receiving the news, the elders exchanged glances, and the Jade Pool Shèngzhǔ replied with a strange expression.

"No need to pay attention."

"Damn, is this a demon race reconnaissance unit? They've only been here half a day, and their movements have been completely figured out by the Human Race."

"Moreover, they were discovered by other Human Race members, yet they themselves noticed nothing."

"They're still there drinking, singing, and dancing."

"Damn it, what exactly are you scouting?"
