Last Totem Novel - Chapter 594
Chapter 594 Coalition Forces
The two of them made a simple sleigh and stacked the spoils of war on it. In the adepts’ tents, they found many demon scouting bee eggs. Tie Zha wanted to set the fire on it, but the Black Pig King reached out to stop it and found a wooden box to pack it in.
They had gathered a large amount of gold coins, precious stones, herbs, saber axes and spears mixed with refined gold and secret silver, as well as totem potions refined from spirit ores and black oil. They were worth more than 30,000 gold coins. With the addition of more than three hundred sharp ears, he could exchange for nearly a hundred thousand merits, which could be said to be a fruitful battle. It had to be said that war was the fastest way to get rich. Normally, how could he make so much money in one night?
After collecting the items, the two of them carried the barrels of kerosene in the camp and sprinkled them everywhere. Finally, they set the fire on it.
In an instant, the flames shone red in the sky, and a heat wave pounced on his face. A charred smell permeated the air. After resting for a while, Tie Zha asked the Black Pig King to drag the spoils back to the communication station, while he followed the footprints on the snow and chased after them.
The only reason he wanted to see it was because he couldn’t bear it anymore. Old Man Tie had taught him since he was young that life was precious. As long as it was not a threat to him, he would not kill it if he could. Although this might seem paradoxical, or even hypocritical, they didn’t have many choices when they were born in a world where the weak preyed on the strong. To be able to retain a trace of goodwill deep within his heart was already precious.
After walking for several kilometers along the footprints, the corpses all over the ground entered his pupils. Their left ears had been cut off, and their faces were stained with blood. Quite a few people widened their eyes and died in grief.
Seeing this cruel scene, Tie Zha took a deep breath and turned to leave.
After returning to the communication station, he immediately called for everyone to return to the banks of the Nether River and wait for the large army. A few hours later, they returned to the shore and searched along the river for a long time. Finally, they encountered an aircraft that had come to drop. After confirming his identity and mission, he boarded the plane and crossed the river, returning to the camp.
After a few hours of tidying up, the Black Pig King took out the photos from the power armor camera, packed his ears in a suitcase, and sent them to the Mercenary Management Center.
Within the management tent, the Black Pig King encountered the two power-armored warriors who had left halfway. When they saw the Black Pig King from afar, they immediately showed fear and turned around to leave. The Black Pig King chased after him and didn’t say anything. He just clenched his fists.
The bug warrior stammered, “Big … big brother, I … we’re separated …”
“Yes, the situation is so chaotic.” The psionic warrior echoed.
“Half of it, I’ll pretend nothing happened.” The Black Pig King said in a deep voice.
The two of them looked at each other. They sighed and parted their ears. Judging from their size and shape, they were basically women’s and children’s. Among them was an old man’s head, which the Black Pig King didn’t want. However, he knew that it was the head of a flower-robed adept. It could be exchanged for thousands of merit points, dozens of times more than an ordinary demon’s ear.
The method of settlement for merit points was very similar to the “phased reward” given to agents by manufacturers to promote sales. Each ear, according to the age range measured by the analyzer, ranged from two hundred to five hundred battle merits. The closer it got to the number of young adults, the higher the number of points.
The company or individual had a total of 500 ears, which counted as exterminating a small tribe and earning 50,000 merit points. Exterminating ten small tribes was considered a medium-sized tribe, and they were awarded 500,000 merit points. Ten medium-sized tribes, considered a large tribe, were awarded five million merit points.
From this, it can be seen that the number of killings under the same company or individual name, has a huge advantage, therefore also prompted a large number of high-priced acquisition of ears.
But in reality, very few people are willing to sell because the intangible assets and fixed assets in the strategic resource pool cannot be traded. For example, titles could only be exchanged for merit points in one’s name. For example, real estate in Silver City was not allowed to be exchanged for 20 years. This meant that speculation was extremely difficult.
However, there were some exceptions. Bug Transformers didn’t really need merit points, because they couldn’t exchange for titles, and they couldn’t enter Silver City anywhere. Tie Zha’s goal was to fill in the gaps in the 100,000-ton Star Diamond. Titles and real estate were meaningless to his entire team’s core layer, so they were all placed under the name of Cyrus Investment Co., Ltd.
After accounting, the glasses officers of the management center uploaded the information to the main computer of Silver City World and publicized it on the financial streets of Eternal City and Elk City. Not long after, the company gained 120,700 merit points. Although it was still a long way from reaching the target of 30 million, it was still a small step forward.
Five days later, Mu Qianhe led the newly established Vermillion Bird Mobile Corps, along with Yang Yong’s Azure Bee Mobile Corps and the bearded Red Scorpion Mercenary Corps, into Theater 62.
The tripartite alliance army consisted of more than 5,000 men, of whom 700 were mechs, 200 were modifiers, 50 were power armor warriors, 2,500 were marines, and 1,500 were logistical personnel. Mu Qianhe was the commander-in-chief of the alliance forces, while Yang Yong and Big Beard were the deputy commanders. Although his position was clear, it was actually up to Tie Zha alone to say the truth.
Seeing the size of the Black Wolf Mercenary Corps, the two power-armored warriors who had worked together had the nerve to find the Black Pig King and request to join.
“Big brother, we were wrong, but we also paid the corresponding price.” “We have nowhere to go. Please take us in.” “Yes, please.” The two of them said hypocritically. Actually, with their strength and self-motivation, which mercenary regiment wouldn’t welcome them with open doors?
“There is a saying in our southern cemetery that traitors are like lambs. If you join us, the situation that happened that day will only lead to death. You …” The Black Pig King’s eyes revealed a fierce expression. “Do you understand?”
“Understood, of course I understand!” “I have to.” The two of them nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice and swore in confidence.
“Follow me.” The Black Pig King waved his hand and brought the two of them to report.
At the same time, Bai Xiaotian, the boss of the Seven Kills Legion, approached Tie Zha and requested to join the alliance army. Tie Zha agreed straightforwardly. In this way, the alliance army increased by more than a thousand men, expanding to 6,000 men. At this moment, their strength had already surpassed the two standard Marine Divisions of the garrison, and their combat strength far exceeded that of the same number of garrisons. They could be considered to be the crocodiles of theater 62.
Theater Commander-in-Chief Hildebrand sent someone over to invite the upper echelons of the Alliance Army to lunch. Tie Zha had Mu Qianhe bring the Black Pig King, Bai Xiaotian, Yang Yong, Big Beard, and the others with him.
In the meantime, Zhao Wenke sent a message saying that Evgeny and Dazhi Tokuda requested to surrender and be willing to reform and contribute to the Black Wolf Legion. Their company was wiped out and there was nowhere to go. Zhao Wenke suggested that their request could be considered. After all, the two of them were stronghold commanders, and their leadership skills were not bad. It was just that they had some bad habits. Moreover, in the past few months, the two of them hadn’t gone crazy after being repeatedly destroyed by Valeria. They were considered rare talents.
Tie Zha thought for a moment and replied, “Let’s talk after the war.” Then, she dialed Selma’s voice and asked her to persuade Valeria. She was done venting her anger, so she shouldn’t hold on to others.
“Women are very hateful.” Selma refused.
“Is there no other way?” Tie Zha asked.
“No.” Selma did not intend to dwell on this question. After answering, she said that she was going to take a shower and hung up the communication.
Tie Zha could only dial Mu Yuqinxin’s voice and ask her to persuade Selma to convince Valeria. However, Mu Yuqinxin said, “If you really want to recruit those two scum, it’s best to talk to Valeria personally. It’s much easier for a man to convince a woman than a woman to convince a woman.”
‘”Uh” Tie Zha rubbed his forehead and said discouragingly, “Forget it, forget it.”
“By the way, I was just about to send you a message. Jiang Xiao, the Jiang Clan’s Clan Head, would like to invite you to the 25th Theater of Operations and have a chat in person.” Mu Yuqin said in her heart.
“Now?” Tie Zha frowned. Each theatre was 50 kilometers long, and theatre 25 was nearly 2,000 kilometers away from theatre 62. This time, it would take at least three days.
“If you want to borrow some strength.” Mu Yuqinxin seemed to have seen through his thoughts and added, “We’ll be here in two hours if we hire an aircraft.”
“What kind of person is he? I have never come into contact with him.” Said Tie Zha.
“Families from the Far East have migrated from the Northern Wilderness Continent for hundreds of years. They are one of the nobles of the old territories.” Mu Yuqin introduced.
“And then?” Tie Zha asked.
“It’s easier to talk than those old men from Brandon, but that’s all.” Mu Yuqinxin replied.
“What’s the point of that?” Tie Zha was puzzled.
“I can interfere with him ~” Mu Yuqinxin said the key point.
“Alright, I’ll go.” Tie Zha nodded and said.
Not long after he hung up, Bi Tianye sent another communication request.
“How about it? Do you want to come to my place to play?” Bi Tianye invited. The snake race was in charge of 98 and 99 war zones.
“After a while.” Tie Zha declined. Even though Bi Tianye had formed an alliance with him, he still didn’t trust him. If they were to get caught, it would be over.
Bi Tianye seduced, “I have 60,000 people here. You can fight anywhere you want. Come on ~”
“Wait a bit longer. My side hasn’t stabilized yet.” Said Tie Zha sincerely.
“Alright, then I’ll wait for you ~” Bi Tianye said. Her tone was like a daughter-in-law waiting for a man to return home. If Tie Zha hadn’t seen her exquisite and versatile before, he would have believed it.
The two of them chatted a few more times before they went about their own business. Afterwards, Tie Zha went to the assembly room and put on the newly repaired Wilderness Knights. He went to the mercenary camp and found the flying machine.
Basically, the mercenary corps couldn’t afford to maintain aircraft, especially in the Aurora Plane. They needed to assemble them locally, so they could only borrow them from the garrison. Tie Zha went to the management center and asked the glasses officer what he could do to borrow the aircraft.
“At the very least …” The officer raised his glasses and said, “Find a general or above.”
“Can you introduce me?” Tie Zha asked.
“There’s no need. Your Black Wolf Legion has been in the limelight lately. Just go to the command tent.” Eyeglasses said.
Tie Zha nodded and left. Half an hour later, as the officer had said, he only mentioned one thing. The major general of the garrison personally arranged for the aircraft to send him to theater 25.
