~7 min read 1,295 words

"Then is he still doing alright now?"

Yingfang did not pay attention to Chenjie's glib talk there and spoke up.

"Not sure. According to that classmate of mine, he went out to execute a task a while ago; it seems he went to the Fourth Defense Zone."

"Sigh, the Fourth Defense Zone? How could he go to such a far place to execute a task? I was still thinking of telling him the news of my marriage!" Yingfang sighed and said helplessly.

"There's no helping it. After all, he is a Captain of a combat squad; it must be a common occurrence to be out executing tasks."

While the two were conversing, Xu Fenqiu knocked on the dormitory door and said to Yingfang with a smile on his lips.

"Yo, chatting? Yingfang, your marriage leave has been confirmed. You can leave the Military District next month. You kid better put in some effort after you get home!"

Seeing it was Xu Fenqiu, Yingfang did not feel shy and laughed, "Hahaha, that's for sure. It's not easy to be able to go home, and I can go back to see my mom. It's just a pity that my younger brother went out to execute a task."

Chenjie interjected from the side, "Captain, do you have any impression of Yingfang's younger brother, Yingzhou?"

Xu Fenqiu nodded and replied, "I have an impression. His physique is truly too impressive; it's hard for me not to have an impression. What's wrong with him?"

"He formed a combat squad under Nie Hao of the Thirteenth Legion and is currently executing a task in the Fourth Defense Zone."

Upon hearing Chenjie's explanation, a flash of surprise crossed Xu Fenqiu's eyes, but he quickly returned to normal, nodded, and said, "This kid is something; being able to form a combat squad under Nie Hao is also quite impressive!"

"Right? I confirmed it at the time, but that kid's physique is truly too recognizable; it definitely must be him!"

"Alright, you guys chat first. I'm heading off; there are other matters to handle."

After Xu Fenqiu finished speaking, he turned and left. Chenjie asked Yingfang in confusion, "Why did Old Xu leave so suddenly?"

"Didn't you hear the Captain say? He has things to be busy with. Alright, knowing my brother's whereabouts can be considered putting my mind at ease; at least it's not news of his death." Yingfang turned and began to continue tidying up his bunk.

"Fine, you're all busy people; I'm the only idler."

"If you're going to put it that way, then help me..."

"I suddenly remembered there is a very important matter; I'm leaving first."

Seeing Yingfang's malicious smile, Chenjie immediately stood up to take his leave.

Fourth Defense Zone.

After the Beast Race was forced to stop their attack on the Inner City, more than 20 days had passed. During this time, Yingzhou had been constantly uprooting one Orc Camp after another, making the Beast Race side very irritable.

Although Mailun and Maike of the Beast Race organized several operations to wipe out that unit of masked Two-legged Sheep, Maike and Mailun discovered that these masked Two-legged Sheep seemed like they could never be killed off; instead, their own casualties were gradually increasing.

In the end, Maike and Mailun had no choice but to call back all the Beast Race camps in every area of the Outer City, suspending their control over the Outer City, and prepared to concentrate their strength to wipe out these Two-legged Sheep units harassing them in the Outer City all at once.

"We killed over 400 Two-legged Sheep and lost over 800 Orc warriors, but they are still the same as before, constantly appearing around us to harass us."

Mailun sat in Maike's tent, grumbling.

"Mm, this unit is indeed tricky. I have already called back all the Orcs stationed in the camps in the Outer City. Now we still have many Orc warriors. This time, we will solve both these Two-legged Sheep units harassing us and those Two-legged Sheep units that came out from the Inner City together!" Maike's eyes narrowed slightly, and a flash of ruthlessness crossed his eyes.

While the two were conversing, the staffs in their hands flickered with a faint blue light.

When the two's consciousness entered the Gathering Space, that calm voice drifted over.

"I have already given you opportunity and time for your failed attack on the Inner City. How are the preparations going now?"

Maike said respectfully, "High Priest, we have already gathered all the Orc warriors, prepared to wipe out the living strength of those Two-legged Sheep in one fell swoop. Those Two-legged Sheep in the Inner City have already sent a large number of troops to the Outer City; having lost the protection of the city walls, their combat power is not worth fearing."

"Very good. I don't have the energy to manage your side recently. The Zerg seem to have sensed our intention to invade the Ninth Defense Zone. Now they have established a Hatchery not far from our territory. When the time comes, I want to hear your good news!"

"Yes! Rest assured, High Priest!" Maike and Mailun replied respectfully.

The two's consciousness quickly returned to their bodies. Mailun looked at Maike and said, "Although our heavy firepower has been replenished somewhat now, that Two-legged Sheep unit is still there. I will take two ten-thousand-man squads to find them; you go deal with those Two-legged Sheep that came out of the Inner City."

"Mm, this time, no matter how many of those Two-legged Sheep there are, I will wipe them all out!"

Giant Sequoia District Gathering Place.

Yingzhou looked at the current Legion cap he possessed and felt deeply moved in his heart. The Legion's appearance finally had some scale. His recent outings to raid Orc camps and rescue survivors were indeed quite effective!

Opening his System Panel, Yingzhou checked his achievements during this period.

【Host: Yingzhou.】

【Currently possessed Legions: Death Korps of Krieg, Catachan Jungle Fighters, 5 Xiunu.】

【Legion cap: 426 people.】

【Summonable Legion personnel: 350 Death Korps of Krieg, 70 Catachan Jungle Fighters, 5 Xiunu, 1 Krieg Commissar.】

【Number of times to draw Legion types: 0 times.】

【Current Faith Value: 673.】

【Faith Legion cap: 783 people.】

【Legions summonable by Faith Value: Death Korps of Krieg, Catachan Jungle Fighters.】

【Faith Value summoned Legion personnel: 650 Death Korps of Krieg, 133 Catachan Jungle Fighters.】

Yingzhou had already paid the points and Faith Value required for these Legions in advance, but he was not in a hurry to summon them. After all, withdrawing them again would require consuming points; he should save a little.

It was a pity that those Orcs had directly abandoned their camps and retreated in the last few days.

Otherwise, he could have saved quite a few more survivors.

At this moment, Yingzhou heard several familiar voices outside the gathering place. He walked out of the gathering place to take a look and discovered that Han Li was talking to several of his team members.

"Zhao Jian? How did you guys come?"

Seeing Yingzhou come out, Zhao Jian hurriedly shouted loudly, "Captain! The Beast Race has made a big move. They have a large group of troops heading toward the troops sent by the Fourth Defense Zone to the Outer City. Looking at that posture, they are going to go head-to-head with us! Councilor Xindi sent us to deliver the message to you!"

"And another batch?" When Yingzhou heard about a large group of troops, he sensed something was wrong.

"There is another batch wandering in the Outer City. They haven't dispersed in large numbers; there are probably also Orcs."

Yingzhou nodded and said, "Alright, I know. Since you guys have come, then stay and help."

"Yes!"
