Chapter 40, Garrison No. 3, New City

Outside the mission area.

The werewolf who was besieging Yunzhu and intended to launch a sneak attack suddenly had its neck severed. The cut was perfectly smooth, and blood gushed out like a fountain, sending its head flying.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yunzhu jumped out of the encirclement, swung her claws and grabbed the head of a werewolf. In the instant the flames erupted, the werewolf's head shattered.

On the other side, Mengyu's straight knife skills were superb. She fought against five werewolves alone without being at a disadvantage, and even showed a tendency to turn the tide.

Lin Ran glanced at it and used her pupil technique to hit a werewolf.

Mengyu immediately seized the opportunity and killed a werewolf with a straight blade without any hindrance.

Lin Ran walked forward slowly, not showing herself for the time being, and used her pupil technique to assist the two.

All the werewolves in the slave group were attracted to the two, and with his assistance, they could handle it, so there was no need for him to step in for the time being.

Lin Ran watched for a while, then controlled his dark spiritual energy to cover the werewolves besieging Yun Zhu, isolating the battle from the outside world.

After completing the coverage, Lin Ran sent a telepathic message to Yun Zhu.

The flames on Yunzhu's body suddenly surged, and with one strike, a werewolf was sent flying backward, coughing up blood. During its flight, its neck was severed, and it died before even hitting the ground.

With the two working together, the remaining werewolves were no match for them and were all killed in less than two minutes. The werewolves who tried to escape were killed by Lin Ran before they could escape.

After dealing with this group of werewolves, Lin Ran turned to attack the werewolves surrounding Meng Yu.

First, they were enveloped in dark spiritual energy to prevent them from escaping, and then they cooperated with Mengyu.

Mengyu is extremely powerful and her timing is very precise. Every time she strikes, she kills a werewolf. She wiped out the entire werewolf team in a shorter time than Yunzhu.

When only one werewolf remained, Lin Ran cut off its limbs, stopping Meng Yu from continuing.

"I'll ask, you answer; I'll only ask once."

"Where are you from?"

"Pah, you cowardly attacker, you..."

puff!

The werewolf turned its head and rolled to the side with a thud.

Lin Ran led Yun Zhu out of the darkness, without dispelling the dark spiritual energy.

"First, restore the spiritual energy."

He took out a pile of crystals and put them aside. He ignored the slaves for the time being, as they were all within his sight. If they wanted to escape, he could just kill them.

More than half an hour later, all three of them returned to their full strength.

Lin Ran approached the slave group, and after a brief moment of thought, put on a faceless mask, then casually gave one to Yun Zhu and Meng Yu each.

We don't know the situation in the mission area right now, and we can't contact Yan Lingfei, so it's best to be careful.

The slave ranks were somewhat disorderly, splitting into several groups. If it weren't for the heavy shackles, they would probably have already started fighting.

Lin Ran dispersed his dark spiritual energy and with a wave of his hand, killed several large demons that were trying to cause trouble.

The slave procession fell silent instantly; apart from the two elves, fear filled the eyes of the rest of the slaves.

Lin Ran reached out and grabbed an elf, breaking her shackles.

"I'll ask you a question, you answer: Where were you arrested from?"

"Are you reinforcements from the human race?"

puff!

The elven head fell to the ground, its expression filled with bewilderment.

Lin Ran captured another Pokémon.

"Where were you arrested from?"

"Human, you should think this through..."

puff!

Another head fell to the ground.

Lin Ran caught a succubus and continued asking questions.

The succubus was very honest and quickly answered the question.

"We were captured from the human race's third settlement and are to be transported out of human territory to the werewolf race's settlement."

"Tell me everything that has happened at Base No. 3 recently."

Lin Ran instructed Yunzhu and Mengyu to interrogate the other slaves separately.

The succubus's body trembled slightly, and she quickly said,

"The major event recently was the sudden attack by the werewolves, and the attack was so powerful that it almost broke through the defenses of the human settlement. Fortunately, reinforcements arrived in time."

"There are no large-scale battles at the moment, but other races have joined in and built a city outside the base. The main battles are now taking place in the city..."

The succubus spilled a whole bunch of information from the bamboo tube.

Lin Ran sorted through everything, keeping only the important parts, asked a few other questions, and then tied up the succubus and threw her back into the slave ranks.

Before long, Yunzhu and Mengyu had finished asking for the information. The three of them compared the information and found that the information they had received was almost identical.

"More or less, the news should be true." Lin Ran stroked his chin.

"What should we do with these slaves?" Mengyu wiped the blade of her knife, her gaze sweeping over the remaining dozens of slaves.

Lin Ran glanced at it.

"Leave those two humans alive, kill the rest."

"it is good."

Yunzhu and Mengyu joined forces, and a massacre ensued instantly.

Lin Ran grabbed the two humans and brought them in front of him. After a brief observation, he found that their mental state was very poor, as if they had suffered a severe blow to their spirits.

He had no means to restore their mental state, and after roughly confirming that he couldn't bring them back to normal, he gave them a quick death.

Before long, Mengyu and Yunzhu had dealt with the slaves.

"Let's go to Garrison Number Three."

……

station.

After undergoing a racial check, the three were able to enter the compound without incident.

The entrance is a long street lined with buildings constructed of a dark bluish-black stone, giving it a heavy and imposing feel.

The streets are lined with shops right next to the main road, and there are many living things on the street, but there is not much of a sense of prosperity. Instead, there is a strange sense of tension.

Besides humans, cat people, werewolves, elves, fire spirits, ice spirits, lizardmen... and many other orc races are also commonly seen.

The three masked groups did not stand out too much.

Lin Ran frowned. If he hadn't seen any particularly strong alien races, he would have thought the base had already been breached.

Under normal circumstances, this situation would never occur in the base!

After walking for a while, Lin Ran decided to first check out the situation in the city outside the garrison.

After traversing streets that stretched for over ten kilometers, we finally arrived at another gate.

Crossing the gate meant leaving the territory of the human race.

Without much hesitation, Lin Ran left the camp with Yunzhu and Mengyu.

Following the direction indicated by the succubus, after walking for more than ten kilometers, a city with tall walls appeared out of nowhere.

Even from a distance, you can feel the restless energy of the city, as if it were mixed with cheers and roars.

Lin Ran suddenly touched her storage ring and took out a token-shaped crimson crystal.

This was a communication method that Yan Lingfei had given him a long time ago. Back in the small world, terminals were more convenient, so he had never used it.

The token was glowing and emanating a scorching aura.

Lin Ran infused spiritual energy into the token, and Yan Lingfei's voice immediately rang out.

"Captain, you're finally here!"

"I'm outside the new town. Come out and meet me. Don't tell anyone I'm here, and don't bring anyone with you."

"Okay, I'll go out now."

After Yan Lingfei finished speaking, she disconnected the communication, and the token returned to normal.

Lin Ran walked a short distance away, raised a layer of dark spiritual energy to conceal her figure, and before long, she saw Yan Lingfei walking out of the gate alone.

"I'm here," Lin Ran said, taking out the token.
