Last Totem Novel - Chapter 178

Chapter 178 Rain And Rain
After breakfast, Tie Zha put on his equipment, picked up his walkie-talkie and set off. He will act as a guide and scout for the team, staying 2 km ahead.

After leaving the camp, he quickly searched for the weeping flies and hatched the scouting ants. About two hours later, the army was fully equipped, and the number of soldiers had also reached 30 or so. After finishing the preparations, Tie Zha picked up the walkie-talkie, pressed the communication button, and ordered, “Let’s go.” Immediately after, he thought to himself, and the army of soldiers let out a faint hissing sound, quickly spreading towards the square fan-shaped area in front of him.

For the rest of the time, Tie Zha stayed at the front of the line and commanded them through the walkie-talkie. In the meantime, he searched for new cynomolgae to maintain the operations of the soldiers, while collecting cynomolgae canine fangs and stinger tail bones.

In the evening, the team, led by Tie Zha, arrived safely at the mission site. After camping, two maintenance personnel began repairing satellite signal receivers. In the canopy in the middle of the camp, Tie Zha called Wang Hu over and handed him a large bag of spoils of war, instructing him to manage it uniformly.

Wang Hu roughly counted and found that there were more than eighty pairs of canine teeth and eight stinger tails in the bag. Looking at the huge amount of spoils, Wang Hu was shocked. He didn’t expect the Guild Leader’s combat strength to be so strong, killing so many bee ants and insects in just a day. Actually, only a small number of these spoils were obtained today, and the rest were killed two days ago. Tie Zha returned along the same path. He had roughly recovered half of the canine teeth, and the tail bones of the thorns were relatively valuable. He had specially dispatched soldiers to search the area where the battle had taken place yesterday and easily recovered the remains of the eight thorns.

After resting for a while, a serviceman reported that the satellite signal receiver was badly damaged and that it would take them three days to repair it. Tie Zha raised his hand, signaling for the repairmen to continue working, and then ordered Wang Hu to set up a temporary defense line.

Everyone walked for a whole day, and just as they sat down, Wang Hu called for them to set up the camp. They couldn’t help but complain. Tie Zha saw that everyone’s morale was low and their spirits were depressed, so he jumped onto the roof of one of the woodland cars and announced loudly that they would have an extra meal tonight. Each of them would have three portions of canned meat. Apart from that, anyone who participated in the camp’s defenses would receive an extra gold coin.

Tie Zha’s words were like a heart-strengthening needle, stirring up everyone’s motivation. After two hours of hard work, they finally dug the trench, pulled up the barbed wire, piled up the shelter wall, and then surrounded the canopy to eat a delicious whole-meat meal.

Just as the camp was burning hot, in the dark lighthouse 120 km away, General Li Qi was looking at a letter with a deep frown. It was a call for help from the Dark Jungle Guard, whose patrol found a “bee ant nest” in the jungle 300 km from the night lighthouse. The letter said the nest had been in existence for several months and was led by an “Abyss Ant Queen”. It was a typical “nest.”

The patrol team initially detected that they had dug through an underground space of 90,000 square meters and built a small incubator at a depth of 30 meters. It was initially estimated that there were more than ten Hegemons of the Abyss, over a thousand Chrysopa and more than three hundred sting insects in this nest.

The letter asked General Richie to send a team of nearby students to cooperate with them to surround the nest and set up a defensive line. After reading the letter, General Li Qi left the office and went to the command center to retrieve the tactical map of the dark jungle from the three-dimensional sand table.

At this moment, there were many green cursors moving slowly or standing still on the map. These cursors represent the various academy teams. The general entered a set of coordinates. A red light flashed in the three-dimensional sand table, and a red dot of light spread outwards. He crossed his chest for a while, then sighed. He reached out and lit up six green cursors in turn, then pulled and drew in the air. In an instant, each of the six cursors stretched out a light green dotted line. The dotted line swam in the air and gradually converged on the short and fat finger of the general. When the six dotted lines were connected, the general pointed across the sky and the dotted lines separated from his fingers and connected to the red dot of light.

After arranging the reinforcements, General Li Qi held his chin and thought for a while. Then, he found a light green cursor in the sand table and connected it with a pull and a stroke.

Above the green cursor floated a line of small words: Campus Detective.

At the same time, tens of thousands of kilometers away from the night lighthouse, Bi Qinglan was sitting upright on the sofa in the main hall of a large house by the cold lake of the Central Silver City Military Academy in the western continent. She was making tea while listening to her subordinates’ reports.

“There is no one named Zhang Tie on the list of people from the War Bear Temple.” A petite girl with a brown ponytail half-kneeling on the side of the sofa said.

“We also checked the records of the martial monk before shaving, but we didn’t find anyone suspected of being Zhang Tie.” A girl with a brown watermelon lid and a similarly petite figure half-kneeling on the other side of the sofa said.

“Xiao Ying, Xiao Tao, get up.” As she spoke, Bi Qinglan picked up the exquisite little teapot and slowly tilted it down. A thin line of water flowed out from the mouth of the pot, bringing with it a faint fragrance and mist, falling into the small and exquisite tea bowl.

After pouring the tea, Bi Qinglan smiled faintly and raised her fair and slender hands to signal the two girls to use the tea.

“Yes!” Xiao Ying and Xiao Tao answered in unison. Then, they stood up, walked to the coffee table, bent down to pick up the tea bowl, and then began to taste it carefully. The fragrance of this aged Jade Sea Green Tea overflowed everywhere. It was fragrant in the mouth, and after drinking it, one’s lips and teeth would return to their sweetness, giving one an aftertaste.

“This Jade Sea Tea is only the best for the first brew. The rest is tasteless. It’s a pity to abandon it.”

“Sister is the most picky when drinking tea. She doesn’t even drink a single mouthful of the second brew.”

“I remember that last summer, Qing Lan and her sister climbed the Jade Dragon Lonely Peak.”

“On that thousand foot cliff, we took a ladle of spring water, picked up some firewood, and boiled a pot of tea.”

“We sat side by side on the cliff and watched the clouds, mountains, and seas of mist, sunrise and sunset. We made an appointment to be sisters in our next life.”

“Now that Yin and Yang are separated, the laughter is gone. Do you all know how much hate I have in my heart?”

“Please forgive Cyan Lan’s willfulness. Even if it’s a sliver of a possibility, Cyan Lan can’t ignore it!”

“Xiao Ying, Xiao Tao.” Bi Qinglan’s expression turned cold as she shouted in a deep voice.

“Yes!” “Yes!”

“Immediately head to the night lighthouse and monitor Sa Cha Cha.” Bi Qinglan stood up, pointed at the distant central continent, and said in a deep voice.

“Yes!” “Yes!” The two women returned to their original positions and cupped their fists in response.

After a while, Xiao Ying and Xiao Tao returned to their rooms. After packing their luggage, they arrived at the chaser apron and set up a special aircraft for the Ancient Temple. In the morning light, the flying machine slowly lifted into the sky, and then flew towards the central continent.

Half an hour after the twins set off, two student council assistants in a detached villa on Babylon Garden Avenue were lying on either side of the living room sofa, sipping wine and chatting.

“Just now, Yongle Li Qi came to claim credit.” Eva shook her glass of red wine and said meaningfully, “He said he arranged a safe and affordable mission for your friend.”

“Tell me.” Mu Yuqinxin looked at the former and said.

“The Dark Jungle Guards are preparing to attack an ant nest. They need the help of the Dark Night Lighthouse to set up defenses. This kind of mission is just a formality. The academy’s team is not a regular army and can retreat at any time.” ‘”You’re so nice to your little lover ~ I’m almost jealous ~ Oh, no ~ I’m starting to get jealous ~ I’m about to die of jealousy ~” Eva curled her lips slightly and said in a sticky tone.

Mu Yuqin snorted and said with disdain, “Little Demon ~” Then she changed the topic and asked seriously, “What benefits did Yongle Li Qi ask you for?”

“He said it was his honor to serve us. He doesn’t need anything.”

“Impossible. He’s a famous profiteer.” Mu Yuqin said with disdain, “As a general, he actually sells his own wine in his own district. With his style, how could he do business at a loss?”

“But” Eva said in a long voice.

“Hmph, look.” Mu Yuqin put on an expression of “I knew it would be like this”.

‘”He wanted us to praise their brandy in public. And for that, he gave a demonstration …” Eva cleared her throat and said in a male voice,

“Li Qi is actually not bad.” “Li Qi VSOP, it tastes great!” “Richie Napoleon, the choice of taste.” “Li Qi XO, a hundred-year-old wine, my favorite.”

“What a disgusting line ~” Muyu Qinxin mumbled, “And it tastes terrible, okay? The wine he gave me at the beginning of school last year, and I’m still putting it in the office as an ornament.”

Eva looked at Mu Yuqin’s gloomy expression and chuckled. “You know what? Last time, he gave me a 250-year-old Li Qi XO. Oh my God, he repeatedly emphasized that it was 250 years old. Moreover, the wine bottle also said 250 years old. I really don’t know what their winery was thinking.”

“Our old butler said that Li Qi’s VS tastes like horse urine.” Mu Yuqin smiled and said.

“Yes, my brother said the same thing.” Eva agreed. “He said it tasted worse than horse urine.”

Just as the two women were spitting out inferior drinks, in the jungle tens of thousands of kilometers away, Iron Slag, Wang Hu, and Giant Ah Mu were sitting around the kerosene stove, happily opening a bottle of Richie VS.

“Good wine! It’s warm all over after drinking.” Giant Ah Mu sighed.

“Our favorite.” Wang Hu raised his glass and said.

“Actually, it’s not bad.” The iron slag touched their cups and said.

At this moment, starlight flickered in the night sky. The bright moonlight shone on the thick and humid leaves, covering the silent forest with a layer of light veil. In the seemingly beautiful scene, a cool breeze blew in the next moment. The leaves rubbed together, making a rustling sound.

Not long after, a raincloud flew into the sky, and it started to drizzle …
