Ota coughed and forced himself to sit up: "I'm fine, I can still fight!"

An upright warrior, he only knows how to fight!

Freya placed her jade hand on Ota's chest and pushed him back onto the bed:

"You can't move yet. You need at least two weeks to recover. Don't worry, He Ding will take care of the rest."

As she spoke, she handed a piece of parchment to Ota:

"I updated it for you while you were asleep. Well, although the attributes didn't increase much, the development ability was improved by one level. I have to thank the golden-armored man for that."

Ota said in a low voice: "Probably because I got beaten again."

It has been so long. Ever since the battle with Chardo, there is nothing that can break through his absolute defense.

Ota took the parchment and looked at it...

Development ability: [Hunter] E / [Abnormal Resistance] E / [Magic Defense] F→E / [Crush] G→F / [Hard Body] G→F

In terms of ability values, except for magic power, some abilities that almost reached 999 have also reached the limit.

He was hard again.

Freya smiled and said, "Hedin and the others have also achieved some small-scale growth and their fighting spirit has been stimulated. After we return, we may try a clan expedition."

"Family expedition?" There was a subtle change on Otagu's calm face, an expression of joy.

Ever since his ability was close to the limit, Freya had forbidden Ota from taking risks. He had been constantly honing his martial arts skills, but he had never expected that this restriction would be lifted today.

Freya's family is famous for their individualism, and the relationships between the various cadres are complicated. It is not easy to organize a large-scale joint expedition.

It's not impossible for Freya to order an expedition, but it's not necessary.

The main problem with the clan is that they have no awareness of coordinated combat, and it is too easy to get into danger if they go to floors below the 49th floor.

Above that, they can also play solo, without any help...

But this time.

Freya saw humiliation in the eyes of those children.

Especially Alan..., now he looks like everyone he meets owes him hundreds of millions, and he really needs to vent.

Perhaps, this will be an opportunity for them to activate their potential!

Freya was in a good mood: Just wait, Loki, it won’t be long before I can show you the strength of our followers that can rival Hera’s!

……

In the merchant city.

Sora and Shiro, along with Ali, stood in front of the metal cages that held over ten thousand people.

Such a large number of soldiers completely filled the huge square before them.

After a night, they, whose bodies were restricted and unable to control their physiological needs, gradually began to let themselves go.

The square was filled with the smell of excrement, including sweat.

Bai covered his nose, with small wrinkles on his forehead:

"Ni, stinky!"

Kong's expression was not good either: "We need to find a way to deal with these people..."

Kong was unwilling to accept this hot potato.

Being responsible for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of nearly 2000 people is not something that can be solved with just one sentence. Just the food and fodder alone costs million Faris a day.

This is just the daily consumption level of eating fried potato balls. If you want to ensure the labor force, you need to supplement the necessary nutrition, which will cost more.

Not to mention how great the food demand is in the desert.

Sora couldn't help but look at Yali: "What do you think?"

Yali was also having a hard time deciding: "Can we instigate a rebellion?"

Kong said bluntly: "I'm not sure. Their wives and children are in Varsha, so they can't be loyal to you."

"makes sense……"

Yali still felt it was such a pity. The soldiers here, even if they were detained, would be beneficial to the war situation.

The total number of troops dispatched by Varsha was no more than 40,000, and more than half of that number was here.

Ali can only rely on the sage:

"How do you think I should deal with them?"

Sora shrugged.

"The best option is of course... to let it go."

"Let him go?!"

Yali said in disbelief: "Isn't that aiding the enemy? If we can detain these people for one more day, our remaining army will have a better chance of recovering the lost territory!"

Kong sneered: "Can you afford to support them? Or are you going to kill them all? Or sell them to a slave trader?"

"This..." Yali's face fell.

Kong continued, "Even if I let you kill them, do you know how long it would take to kill 20,000 pigs? One kill per second, it would take two days. How would you deal with the bodies afterwards? Do you need to bury them? Where are the people responsible for the aftermath?"

"Even if you try to instigate a rebellion, given the current state of your country, it will cost money to appease the people and rebuild the city walls. Do you still have the funds to support 2 civilian soldiers?"

According to Kong's investigation of this world, a normal person needs at least 12 Faris per month to make a living.

To maintain 24 soldiers, even if they were paid the minimum wage, that would be 300 billion francs a month. Nearly billion a year. This does not include weapons, equipment, war horses, etc.

Moreover, most of the time they have no production value of their own and rely entirely on taxes paid by their own citizens to support them.

So... the kingdom-level clans are the richest clans in the underworld. Lokifreya is simply weak.

Ares is the richest man!

Yali held her head and looked at the captive in front of her with disgust in her eyes: "I, I was wrong, don't say anything."

"But if we let them go like this, what will we do when they become the fighting force of Varsha?"

Sora stroked his chin and thought for a moment before saying:

"Do you have any hidden bases near the Merchant City? It doesn't matter if it's a small base, but at least find a hundred soldiers you can trust."

"terribly sorry……"

"That's fine." Kong smiled and said, "You can choose some Sharzak immigrants in my city who are willing to fight for you. Humph, war is not a game where whoever has more troops will definitely win."

Yali was stunned: "You want them to go undercover in the enemy army?"

Bai reminded: "No, it's Li Dai Tao Jiang."

Sora explained: "Even though there are 2 people here, they don't all know each other. Most of the troops are organized into tents of ten people, led by a decurion, and then a centurion..."

Just like the dormitories in college, most smart college students are only familiar with the people in their own dormitories, and then the classes, grades, departments, colleges, etc.

"As long as you abolish all the centurions, use your own people to act as decapitations and infiltrate the captive group, and then gradually gather other decapitations during the escape, you will naturally become the leader of a hundred or even a thousand people."

"At this moment when Varsha lacks immediate combat power, if we learn that the defeated troops have returned, the first ones to be re-armed will only be the troops that still have complete organizations."

"I don't think I need to say more about what's going on next..."

Yali listened to Kong's plan quietly, and the look in her eyes seemed to be wrong.

She had already imagined that if a decisive battle was to be fought with the Kingdom of Varsha in the future, these officers would not need to do anything. As long as they waved the military flags and started a retreat at the critical moment, the army would naturally collapse.

Trampling and chaos alone can give you an absolute advantage.

Yali's eyes sparkled: "Then let's go now! But...if we leave, what will happen to these people?"

Kong Wusushi said, "Just starve first, so you can escape more slowly. Only when you are exhausted will you trust the captain who can find food frequently."

Chapter 420 The Taste of Nature

The battle in the desert continued as planned with the addition of Kongbai.

And here at the Stardust House.

After Xia Jia was carried back by Liu and others, he was immediately sent to Mihe for treatment.

Although he was protected by the golden armor, the impact caused by Ota was not weak. There were extensive bruises on his body and many broken bones.

Most external injuries can be healed by magic, but problems with bones require Mih to adjust.

Fortunately, the injury was not too serious for a high-level adventurer. After just one night's rest, Xia Jia opened his eyes.

The moment he regained consciousness, he felt a delicate and elastic touch on his cheek.

The feeling is very similar to the hot spring buns, but more chewy, giving the illusion of lying on QQ candy.

As his eyes opened, he saw a piece of emerald green cloth in front of him. Above the cloth was the hem of a pure white T-shirt. He could vaguely see the tight and hunched belly with a vest line.

He slowly twisted his neck so that he was facing upwards.

What I saw was a beautiful sleeping face and long ears, which confirmed the other person's identity...

"Hiss, isn't it normal that you can't see the face? What a pity..."

Looking at the hot spring poached egg hidden under the clothes, Xia Jia couldn't help but compare it with the strawberry steamed bun...

He licked his lips... Sure enough, the steamed buns were more fragrant, damn... I was too greedy.

……

Perhaps it was the hair on the back of Xia Jia's head that pricked Liu, or perhaps it was Xia Jia's mumbling to himself that made her gradually open her eyes.

The two looked at each other in silence for a few seconds.

Liu gently brushed her temples, her face slightly red:

"You...you're awake."

Xia Jia's expression was calm: "Is this a way of taking care of someone?"

Liu raised his head, looked around and said, "I, I specifically asked Lady Livilia for advice, and she said that this will heal faster..."

Oh, that's what Li Ma said because she lacks the ability to try. That's okay.

Xia Jia turned over...

"Then let me rest for a while. I'm not fully recovered yet."

Liu felt a moist and warm breath coming from his lower abdomen, and said helplessly:

"You, don't go inside...it's itchy~"

Xia Jia rubbed it and said: "The smell of the forest makes people feel at ease."

“The smell…!”/(/ /o/ω/o/ /)/

Liu's face flushed, and he stood up in excitement: "I, why do I smell? I just took a shower!"

With a thud, Xia Jia fell under the bed, touched his head and muttered: "Hey, I'm still a patient..."

"Yes, I'm sorry! Then, let's do it again!"

Liu pulled Xia Jiaxing to the bed again. This time, Xia Jia looked at the ceiling with a calm expression.

"You, you don't want to rest?"

After a long while, Liu finally spoke again.

Xia Jia said indifferently: "I can't sleep."

"why?"

“I’m afraid of falling from the sky in my dreams.”

"..."

The two of them stared at each other for a while, and before they had even started looking at each other for a while, Xia Jia turned sideways and bowed again.

"Hmm. Finally, do you want to rest?"

"Hmm." Xia Jia groaned.

I'm afraid of accidentally raising the flag when lying flat. What should I say then? I'm injured there and the wound is red and swollen. Do I need saliva to sterilize it?
