Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

At Cao Geng's command, the carriage continued to move forward, and the soldiers on the carriage were all in high spirits...

Kog held the magic map and crossed a dark forest ahead, which was the demon checkpoint.

The carriage continued to move forward and just turned a bend covered with magical vines.

Here it comes, that premonition of disaster comes to my mind again.

Koger suddenly shouted: "Stop the car, hurry..."

Sang Ming immediately stepped on the brakes of the carriage, looked around, and asked anxiously: "Captain, what happened?"

Koger's face was grim: "There is a trap ahead, retreat, leave quickly..."

Without thinking, Sang Ming quickly reversed the carriage and turned the reins frantically, causing it to slide sideways to the middle of the road.

Sang Ming continued to turn sharply, and the carriage passed through a patch of grass and sped away.

Ahead, a demon squadron leader and many of his men were hiding in ambush in the forest.

He led his men to wait here, not intending to surprise Koger and his party, but trying to let them pass and lure them into an encirclement.

However, at this moment, the captain of the demon clan was shocked.

what happened?

Why did the carriage suddenly stop and turn around quickly while driving?

"Damn..."

At this point, even the dumbest demon squadron leader realized that their plan had failed.

He leaped out furiously, drew out his magic staff, and roared loudly: "Kill and move forward..."

The demon leader standing by was helpless. What's the point of killing? The enemy is riding in a carriage, how can we catch up with them if we run on foot?

"Captain, report back immediately and order our mounts to chase after them!"

"Yes, quick..."

The captain of the demon clan quickly put away his self-proclaimed majestic attitude and ordered loudly: "Hurry up and inform the sentry post that Korg has escaped. Have them drive the beast cart to chase him..."

Just as Kog and his companions' carriage turned around, they heard a fierce sound of arrows breaking through the air from behind.

Fortunately, Sang Ming drove the car quickly through the bend, and the demon's arrows immediately lost their target.

Sang Ming shouted anxiously: "Captain, we are indeed exposed, what should we do now?"

It is impossible to return, as there are demons everywhere here, and the only way to survive is to cross the mountains.

Koger made a decision: "After we have traveled a certain distance, we will stop the car and climb the mountain. Faster, faster..."

At the back of the carriage, Zheng Xiao's eyes kept rolling around, and he wanted to pull out his magic bow and kill them. Maybe this would stop them.

However, after thinking about it, he gave up. Because he knew that once he was exposed, he would not be able to fight against Korg. He wanted to complete his mission and did not want to die. His thoughts were completely focused on returning to the position of Demon General.

The carriage drove several hundred yards before Cog yelled, "Stop."

Sang Ming immediately braked and stopped the carriage.

Korg shouted loudly: "Brothers, pick up your weapons, let's go, quickly..."

The soldiers jumped off the carriage and Korg landed on the ground.

"Tang Long, take your brothers and go up the mountain. I'll cover your rear. Quick..."

Tang Long didn't dare to delay, waved his hand, and led everyone to rush to the top of the mountain...

Cao Geng stood in the shadows, seemingly paying attention to the aliens opposite, but in fact, his eyes were fixed on Zheng Yi through the fog.

Yes, doubts had already sprouted in his mind.

Just now, Cao Geng obeyed Zheng Xiao just to verify the guess that made him uneasy.

It is undeniable that Zheng Yi was a loyal companion.

But why would such a reliable partner choose to kill him?

That day in Luyang City, the assassin who assassinated Cao Geng used the magic gun "Garand". The unique explosion sound still lingers in my ears.

Foreigners would never use such weapons. Therefore, Cao Geng firmly believed that it was Zheng Xiao who pulled the trigger.

However, what was the motive? This mystery troubled Cao Geng, and until today, he suddenly realized that Zheng Xiao might not be the person he knew.

Even though Cao Geng had just made it clear, Zheng Yi still spoke out to refute him, which had never happened before.

In order to test Zheng Xiao, Cao Geng pretended to agree and drove into the dangerous situation.

Sure enough, there were a large number of foreign soldiers lurking among the woods ahead.

Therefore, Cao Geng became more convinced that even if Zheng Yi was not a foreigner, he had close ties with them.

However, it would not be wise to reveal the truth at this moment. Cao Geng could not predict other people's reactions. Zheng Xiao had been with him for a long time, so how could he be convicted easily with just one accusation?

He understood that there must be solid evidence to expose the betrayal, otherwise it might lead to internal strife in the team with disastrous consequences.

Cao Geng silently observed Zheng Xiao for a while, but he did not reveal any flaws.

In desperation, Cao Geng took out the spicy powder he had prepared and gently sprinkled it on the ground. Then, he followed the team and quietly evacuated.

This powder had been prepared long before stepping into the alien territory, and there were also a few small props hidden at his side.

He knew very well that he would inevitably encounter such situations on this trip.

Not long after Cao Geng and others left, several huge chariots carrying teams of aliens arrived here.

The vehicle stopped and countless alien soldiers jumped off, some of them leading ferocious giant wolfhounds.

Soon, the giant wolfhound sniffed the scent and followed Cao Geng and his men's trail into the depths of the mountains.

The two giant wolfhounds moved forward while sniffing, but soon they suddenly barked wildly, with saliva flowing from their mouths and noses.

"Damn rebel..."

The two foreign soldiers carrying wolfhounds cursed angrily.

"You despicable guerrilla, you actually cast spicy powder on my beast, damn guerrilla..."

Once a wolfhound inhales the spicy powder, its keen sense of smell will be greatly reduced. Instead of killing it, it will just lose its original value.

The wolfdog's owner was heartbroken.

When the owners of the other wolfhounds saw this, they quickly stopped their dogs and did not let them approach.

"Useless, useless thing! Signalman, report our location immediately and chase after us..."

The alien squadron leader roared angrily and led his men to follow Cao Geng and his men's footsteps in pursuit.

In a distant fantasy world, several alien warriors followed closely behind, riding three ferocious magic wolves.

Although their commander declared that they were no longer needed, fear kept them from evacuating their positions.

Cao Geng, walking at the end of the team, stood on the mountain, and used a magic telescope to spy on the approaching foreign army.

After thinking for a while, he set up an invisible magic trap on the road. He saw that the aliens were only twenty steps away from him.

However, the lush forest concealed his tracks and the aliens were unaware of his presence.

After Cao Geng set the trap, he immediately followed Tang Long and the others, running as fast as the wind.

They cannot stop fighting the enemy, otherwise they will be surrounded on all sides.

Cao Geng galloped through the mountains. Even though the terrain was complicated, his body was as agile as the wind.

The foreign soldiers climbed to the top of the mountain and immediately caught a glimpse of the fast-moving Cao Geng, who was only a few dozen yards away from them.

They quickly raised their guns and fired fiercely at Cao Geng in the distance with their magic-infused spears.

But they overestimated their marksmanship. Cao Geng's speed had already exceeded their aiming limit.

Seeing that their gunshots were ineffective, the alien soldiers immediately ran away. Unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, there was a loud bang, and several people were blown into the sky by the explosion.

"The devil's trap...with magical mines..."

The alien soldiers screamed in fear and immediately stopped, waiting for follow-up troops to come and support them.

These new soldiers who have not received rigorous training are only suitable for maintaining peace. Facing a master like Cao Geng, they are undoubtedly seeking their own death.

Since Akatsuka Yoshio left, most of the veteran alien fighters have been transferred to the Pacific battlefield. Today, the Chinese battlefield is full of fresh blood.

First, the 36th, 37th, and 69th Divisions under the First Corps, as well as the 3rd and 4th Independent Brigades.

Except for the 36th and 37th Divisions, which are secondary divisions, the rest are third- and fourth-level units.

The top division, not a single soldier left.

Yes, you heard it right, this is the entire military force of the alien race in Shanxi at present.

The alien squadron leader climbed to the top of the mountain and shouted angrily: "Damn it, where are all the people?"

A team leader pointed in the direction where Cao Geng fled and reported loudly: "Report to the captain, the anti-Japanese fighters ran in that direction."

The squadron leader was furious and slapped the team leader hard, roaring:

"Damn it, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and chase him! That's Cao Geng, you know? If you catch him, you will have wealth and glory at your fingertips, enough to make you promoted three levels, do you understand?"

"Hey... Warriors, chase..."

The team leader responded immediately and led his men to rush towards Cao Geng.

When Cao Geng caught up with Tang Long and his friends, they had already set up a new magic trap.

As soon as they saw Cao Geng, they immediately took him and continued to escape.

The team behind followed closely behind. Suddenly, there was a loud roar, and three more aliens were blown into the sky, including the team leader.

There's nothing he can do about it. Who makes him rush to the front for promotion and wealth?

The aliens immediately restrained themselves and no longer dared to chase after them rashly...

Unable to move forward, there is a magic stone minefield hidden in the fog ahead!

The demon squadron leader came rushing over, and seeing this scene, he was enraged and roared loudly.

"Damn magic, what's going on? Why are you stopping again?"

The demon soldiers under his command responded timidly: "Captain, there is a magic stone mine ahead! Quickly summon the ore worker wizard."

The demon squadron leader was furious and slapped him hard.

"Damn it, forget about the magician. Where can I find him now? Chase him immediately..."

The demon soldiers had no choice but to move forward, praying not to step into the mysterious underground minefield.

Seeing them staggering, the demon squadron leader became annoyed again.

"Damn it, speed up, how can we catch the enemy if we chase him like this?"

In fact, even if experienced elite demons encounter magic stone mines, they will only react like this.

Hearing the rebuke, the soldiers hastened to quicken their pace, but only slightly.

Cao Geng had never expected that he could escape from the pursuers so easily.

The ten warriors stopped, and Cao Geng ordered: "Brothers, you can't go any further. Nine people climb along this mountain road, be careful, don't leave any traces, and go around to the back of the demon descendants. I will continue to move forward for a while, and then return to meet you. Remember to keep the magic crystal communication open."

Cao Geng said, pulling Tang Long aside and whispering, "Listen to me, don't make a sound. Zheng Xiao is a strange person. I suspect he is a spy from the Devil's descent. But I have no proof. Whether it is true or not, tell the brothers one by one, pay attention to his actions, and don't fall for his schemes."

Tang Long was shocked, but he knew it was inappropriate to ask more questions at this moment, so he just nodded and said, "I understand."

"Okay, let's go!"

After Tang Long understood the instructions and watched them disappear into the woods, Cao Geng continued to run forward.

While running, Cao Geng kicked over the vegetation on the ground, creating the illusion that ten people were passing by.

When Cao Geng reached the mountain ahead, he began to return along the same route.

When the demon soldiers chased here, they suddenly found that the Eighth Route Army had disappeared without a trace.

The demon squadron leader was so angry that his nose twisted. He turned around and glared at his men, then slapped the team leader viciously.

"damn……"

"You are a bunch of idiots, cowardly and incompetent bastards..."

"That's Cao Geng. How can we report to our superiors when we lose him?"

At this time, three demon descendants appeared with three demon wolfhounds.

The captain of the demon squadron shouted excitedly: "Quick, use the wolf and let them track, we must find the people!"

The three demon descendants who raised wolfhounds knew that the Tubalu would not use chili powder to interfere all the time, so they led the dogs to search.

Soon, the wolfhounds sniffed out the trace of Cao Geng's departure, and the demon soldiers followed closely behind.

After chasing for a while, the captain of the demon squadron realized that the Eighth Route Army had jumped out of their encirclement.

That's right, the demons had already deployed their troops to form a ring around him, intending to trap Cao Geng...

However, unexpectedly, Cao Geng broke through their siege with an ingenious strategy.

"Devil's Words, what a cunning underground warrior! Quickly contact the Mage Council and inform them of our location. Those warriors have sneaked up behind us."

Cao Geng ran quickly and with the help of the magic communicator, he quickly found Tang Long and his group.

Seeing that the nine of them were safe and sound, Cao Geng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He sat down under an ancient tree and took out some dry food and magic spring water to enjoy.

It was not easy to get rid of those demonic alien creatures, and Cao Geng was indeed overwhelmed by fatigue.

Tang Long and his companions saw Cao Geng eating and quickly took out their own food. At the same time, they assigned people to guard the surroundings.

After dinner, Tang Long asked: "Captain, what should we do next? Our whereabouts have been exposed. Should we continue to blow up the evil spirit portal?"

Cao Geng thought for a moment and replied, "No, there is nothing else to blow up now. Let's go back."

Cao Geng deliberately let Zheng Xiao hear this.

As expected, Zheng Xiao immediately retorted upon hearing this: "How can we not blow it up? Brother Geng, we have come from thousands of miles away. If the mission fails, how can we face the brigade commander?"

To be honest, Zheng Xiao was full of confusion at the moment. He never dreamed that Cao Geng could escape the pursuit of alien creatures so easily.

In other words, in this battle, he, Zheng Xiao, was completely defeated.

At this time, Cao Geng's ears moved slightly.

It's not good, the sound is that of a dog barking, and the alien creatures are chasing us again.
