Chapter 107: Hell on Earth.

By taking the shortcut of the Industrial and Manufacturing Division, one can reach the Danding Division very quickly, but this is only relatively speaking. Although Tingyun has already sped the Star Chariot to its fastest speed and is completely speeding, it still took a full day and a half to reach the destination.

While everyone was busy dealing with Jianmu Xuangen in the Engineering Department, Fu Xuan, who had obtained military power, had already led his troops to attack the Danding Department, leading the Yunqi to discuss the pros and cons with the local alchemists who had fallen into the cult.

At this moment, the interior of the cave had already turned into a battlefield. The corpses of the immortal species and the evil creatures of abundance were lying all over the ground, creating a scene of hell on earth.

Most of them are demonic beings without any human form, or animals similar to the Black Deer of Plenty, blessed by abundance... Most of them are wolfhounds, and only a very small number are normal human-shaped Cloud Cavalry.

"There's something wrong in the air..."

As soon as he arrived at this place, Yue Yan frowned and sniffed carefully: "There is a smell of medicine, and... a smell of abundance."

"Oh?"

Tingyun was curious when he heard this: "My benefactor, can you even smell the scent of fate?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Yue Yan seemed to realize something and immediately thought to himself that something was wrong - didn't what he had just said reveal the truth?

No, no, I can't let Huanlong realize that I have seen through her now. I'm mainly afraid that she will use this as a trap to trick me, which will not be fun.

So she nodded and continued:

"The power of destiny is too subtle to be detected... but the abundance in the air is as strong as the roots of the Jianmu tree, only slightly weaker than the scent of a hunting expedition. It's really hard to ignore."

Logically speaking, this battle should be considered a great victory for the Cloud Cavalry Army... because those lying scattered on the ground were all half-human, half-ghost demonic beings, and there were very few Cloud Cavalry to be seen, which was also within the train crew's expectations.

After all, although the Medicine King's Secret had been operating in secret for many years and had deep roots in the Danding Division, facing the well-trained regular army of Luofu, this group of rags who had never received any training at all could only be like Yu Qian's father in a noodle shop - there was no garlic left.

But if the troops really won their first victory easily, they would usually set up a stronghold in the rear and leave troops behind to provide support, but there is no such stronghold here, which makes people suspicious.

What was even more bizarre was that some of the corpses of the "Secret Medicine King" were, for some reason, wearing the armor of the Cloud Riders... This gave everyone a bad feeling.

……

"Is this thing...alive? Or dead?"

Yue Yan bent down next to a wolf beast that was killed by a spear in the head, observing it carefully - this guy was probably dead, and his brain had been burned into a ball of charcoal by the high temperature.

But not much blood was lost, and the wound was even healing slowly... Plant-like flesh and blood roots grew on its body, piercing into the soil in the gaps between the bricks, absorbing nutrients and trying to revive the host. It was extremely disgusting.

"A terrifying creature..."

The girl frowned, took out a slightly thinner knife, and began to dissect the wolf in front of her, trying to find something to eat from it.

Dog meat tastes good, but wolf meat... well, I haven't eaten it, but you can try it.

But the result was not satisfactory - although there was no bloody smell, nor was it smelly or rotten, the meat of this guy was worse than that of a fucking rock dragon. The whole body was hard, and only the single horn on the head was edible...

It's a pity that due to its futile attempts to revive itself, most of its power of abundance has dissipated, and its taste is not as delicious as when it was fresh.

……

Dandingsi is adjacent to Linyuan Realm and is also one of the caves closest to the Jianmu Seal. On the way to the stronghold, several people can see the magnificent ancient sea, and the scenery is absolutely beautiful.

It is called a sea, but in fact it is a freshwater ocean. I heard that the sea water in it can be used to make tea and stew soup. Teahouses of all sizes in Luofu use water from the ancient sea, which seems to be better than tea brewed with ordinary well water or river water.

However, at this moment, Yue Yan had no intention of filling several large bottles of water to cook - because the part of the ancient sea below close to the shore had been dyed red with blood, like a sea of blood.

One could even see several mutated human corpses lying on the shore. This scene was simply challenging the physiological limits of carbon-based organisms... Not to mention filling a few bottles of water for cooking, it was even a question whether she could eat today's meal.

"Uh... I'm suddenly a little glad that General Jing Yuan didn't send us to the front line. This is completely different from taking risks."

San Yueqi shuddered and rubbed his stomach unconsciously, feeling a little nauseous - fortunately, he didn't eat anything on the way here, otherwise he would have vomited here today.

At the same time, Xing was checking the bodies around him one by one, trying to see if he could find any survivors.

Just as she was examining Yunqi's body lying on the side of the flower bed, she suddenly noticed that her hand seemed to move. She leaned over and removed her mask, revealing a beautiful woman's face...

After putting her hand under the man's nose to confirm he was still breathing, she said a few words to everyone:

"Come here quickly, there are still living people here!"

Yue Yan was the first to run over after hearing this. He squatted down and felt her pulse, then removed all of her heavy armor, piled it aside, and instructed:

"There's still hope, March, give her an injection quickly."

"Oh well."

San Yueqi took out the injection needle used to treat internal and external injuries from his medical bag in a panic and injected it into the cloud rider - although he didn't know whether this kind of medicine used by ordinary people could be effective on the immortal species, he could only try it out as a last resort.

Fortunately, the medicine worked.

Not long after, Yunqi, who was originally dying, woke up under the dual effects of the injected medicine and his own recovery ability, and regained the ability to speak.

She shook her head dazedly, her brows furrowed, her eyes barely focused.

"Hmm... Emperor Gong bless you, you are not the Medicine King's secret disciple..."

"Don't worry, we are unknown guests of the Starry Sky Train. We were invited by General Jing Yuan. We have nothing to do with those evil cultists."

While comforting the other person, Yue Yan took out a piece of candy wrapped in rice paper and her own water bottle, opened it and fed it to the other person:

"Come, take this medicine, it will help you recover from your injuries."

The young lady from the Cloud Riders was quite obedient. She knew it was for her own good, so she opened her mouth and ate it. However, after the candy entered her mouth, she felt a little confused:

"Are you a doctor? Why is this medicine sweet? It doesn't feel like medicine, but more like floating goat's milk..."

But soon she stopped talking because she was keenly aware that her injuries were recovering at an accelerated rate.

It is indeed medicine, but it tastes much better than what I usually eat.

Chapter 108: Don't move, there's ice cream on your face

After seeing the other party escape from danger and his condition improved, Walter raised his own question:

"You're the Cloud Cavalry in charge of the battle, right? What's the exact situation on the battlefield?... The ground is littered with the corpses of demonic Yin-bodies. Logically, the Cloud Cavalry should have won a resounding victory in their first battle, but why haven't we seen any rear bases along the way?"

Hearing this, the Cloud Rider seemed to have touched a sore spot. He covered his head in pain, but still insisted on answering:

"Yes, as you said. This battle should have been a great victory. At the beginning, those cultists were indeed defeated by us. The Cloud Cavalry advanced triumphantly all the way, as if they were in an empty land.

This should have been a simple mission, but for some reason, as the battle went on, our compatriots in the army started to go crazy.

First, grass and leaves grew on his body and he lost consciousness. Then he roared like a wild beast, swung his weapons and injured his brothers and sisters... The military doctor said that such strange phenomena were symptoms of the demonic body.

But I clearly remember that one of the crazy people was only over two hundred years old and had just joined the army for over a hundred years. He was in the prime of life and full of energy. How could he have become ill with a demonic body?

Before long, even I started to have problems... After I chopped off the head of a secret disciple of the Medicine King, my thoughts started to become confused, my head started to split, and my body uncontrollably wanted to swing the knife and chop people... In the end, in order not to affect others, I could only run over here with the last bit of consciousness I had.

I wanted to kill myself with a knife, but I lost all my strength and passed out... When I woke up, I met you. Thank God, I haven't lost my mind yet. I was just a little bit away, just a little bit away..."

The cloud rider seemed to be still in shock, and after lying on the ground for a while, he was almost recovered and could even stand up and walk around - the people of the fairy boat were protected by abundance while practicing the destiny of hunting, and their recovery ability far exceeded that of ordinary destiny travelers.

"Phew, thank you so much for coming to my rescue..."

After getting up from the ground, she bowed to the few people and put on her armor. The fear in her eyes disappeared and she said firmly:

"I'm going back to the army. My comrades still need me. I can't be a deserter."

"Is it really okay?"

Sanyueqi asked with some concern: "You should be considered a wounded soldier now, right? You can rest for a while and get enough energy to fight again."

The heroic sister waved her hand, seemingly unconcerned:

"It's just a minor injury. It's no problem for us on the Immortal Boat. Even if our limbs are broken, they can grow back slowly. With the medicine given by this girl, I will be able to recover completely soon. I don't need to rest.

Furthermore, at times like these, we must not retreat from the battlefield... This is a principle we should have learned when we joined the army - if the Cloud Cavalry retreated, who would protect the people of the Immortal Ship? And who would protect the planets under the venomous claws of the Abundant Creatures?

"Your determination to fight is truly admirable, young lady... This is all well and good. We, under General Jing Yuan's instructions, are also to head to the Cloud Cavalry's headquarters to reunite with Master Taibu."

Walter nodded and said, "Why don't we go together so that we can look after each other on the way."

The Cloud Rider had no reason to refuse and agreed immediately.

So, there was one more returning Cloud Cavalryman in the group... On the way, they still checked every corpse, hoping to save a few more Cloud Cavalrymen who were left behind.

It's a pity that the female soldier seemed to be an exception. No living Cloud Riders were found, but a few of the Medicine King's secret disciples who were on the verge of death were seen counterattacking... After all, these guys transformed their bodies through various drugs, and their vitality is much stronger than that of normal people in the Immortal Boat. It is normal for some to slip through the net.

Finally, after a lot of delays, they arrived at the Yunqi Army’s base before dark.

The female soldier first found her superior to report, and then took the train crew to the cafeteria - everyone couldn't refuse her kindness, so they followed her.

It is worth mentioning that the temporary canteen of the Xianzhou troops does not serve pre-prepared dishes made by universal synthesizers or other machines, but has a separate cooking team responsible for the meals - even the soup dumplings are steamed freshly.

Maybe this is the persistence of the people in Xianzhou.

This is really rare in the interstellar era. After all, companies of the same period have even cancelled the quick-heating pre-prepared meals distributed to employees, and instead provide cheap, easy-to-produce, and easy-to-carry energy gels in order to squeeze out more surplus value.

The person who proposed this reform claimed that it was a "new-age concept that is environmentally friendly, healthy, and convenient." Then, on the grounds that eating energy gels does not take much time, he reduced the lunch time of employees in his department by ten minutes. He is truly the worst of beasts.

Well, that's a long way off.

At the food counter in the temporary canteen, everyone took a lot of food with the mentality of making a killing (fog).

Especially Xing... She hardly served herself any rice, but instead ordered a big bowl full of various ice cream balls, which dumbfounded Yunqi, who was in charge of serving the food. He reminded her again and again that it was not good to eat too much cold food before he served her some.

“Eat so much ice cream.”

Yue Yan tapped her head and asked, "Aren't you afraid of getting upset in your stomach?"

"Hehe, don't be afraid."

Xing scooped a ball with a spoon, looking very happy: "This is just the beginning, look, March eats more than me."

"She was fished out of ice. She's been frozen for who knows how many years. How can you be the same as her?"

Yue Yan said helplessly: "Forget it, I don't want to bother with you... Don't come to me crying if your head freezes."

“But it’s really delicious!”

Xing scooped a ball of chocolate ice cream with a spoon and handed it to the girl's mouth:

"The soldiers in charge of cooking here are really good... and Yue Yan, it seems you've never made ice cream for us, so we should enjoy it, right?"

"It's already stained with your saliva. I don't want to eat it."

At this moment, the girl was a little arrogant, but even as she said this, she still used her spoon to scoop a ball from the other person's bowl and stuffed it into her mouth:

"Well, it tastes really good."

The ice cream was very smooth, sweet and delicious, melted in the mouth, and had no residue. The ratio was perfect. It should be milk ice cream, but she couldn't tell which kind it was.

Having said that, it is a luxury to have unlimited supply of high-quality ice cream, chocolate and other desserts in the army.

However, on the battlefield, the morale of the troops is extremely important, and the food eaten every day is directly related to the soldiers' fighting will. I think the Xianzhou side should be very clear about this.

"Baji, baji... Let me try another one."

After chewing the ice cream in his mouth until it melted and swallowing it, Yue Yan couldn't help but stretch out his sinful hand again, and told himself in his heart - eat another one.

Strangely enough, after becoming a girl, she seems to like eating sweets more... Is this the reason why girls tend to gain weight easily?

"Hey, wait a minute... Yue Yan, don't move. There's ice cream on your face."

Chapter 109: Take a short break...

"what?"

Hearing this, the girl was stunned and was about to take a tissue, but she saw Xing suddenly come over, stretch out a slender index finger, slide it across her face, and wipe away the melted ice cream.

Then this guy did an amazing thing - he opened his mouth and subconsciously wanted to put his index finger into his mouth and suck it...

But as soon as she put her finger to her lips, she realized something was wrong. Looking at Yue Yan's eyes filled with shame and anger, Xing put her finger down awkwardly, wiped it clean with a tissue, and tried to get away with it.

"Hey."

"Hey, you're so big!"

(state!)

"Yida!"

Sanyue was sitting next to her. For some reason, she didn't say anything and had no expression. Instead, she kept staring at Yueyan, occasionally glancing at Xing. This made the girl feel a little strange, and she couldn't help but ask:
