"The Ouyun people also eat people?" Richard was shocked. If Richard was tortured and killed, he could understand it, but eating people was beyond Richard's cognition.

Bob sneered and said, "What's wrong with eating people? It's not surprising that people who believe in evil gods do anything. When I first came to the Ouyun plane, they even ate their own people, saying that this would send gods who don't believe in the great god Ouyun to hell."

Richard frowned. It was surprising that the followers of Lord Ou Yun were so cruel to those who did not believe in Lord Ou Yun.

George pulled himself together and said, "So in order to avoid being eaten, we have to live well."

"Richard, what do you think? Break out or go back to the Green Flag Camp?"

Richard thought about it carefully, but suddenly remembered that no matter where his group went this week, they would be discovered by the Ouyun people. Even if they had snatched the divine power sensor, they had never appeared within the sensing range.

Richard remembered that the magic of Priest Ou Yun included the art of controlling animals, which meant that there must be a priest controlling the animals to stare at his group of people. Richard glanced at the sky, but did not see any flying birds or anything.

That’s right, if that were the case, I would have had doubts a long time ago.

Richard could only tell the two of them what he knew, "The priests of Ouyun have mastered a magic that controls animals. No matter where we go, as long as we don't escape the encirclement, we may be discovered."

George and Bob looked at each other and could see bitterness in each other's eyes, but they both knew that the only way now was to return to the Green Flag Camp. If they broke out, they would be discovered by the natives.

Richard continued, "Although priests can control animals, they cannot communicate with all plants like elves can. They can only communicate with the creatures they control, and controlling animals will consume a lot of their mental energy, so the number of animals they can control will not be too large."

"We need to use the speed of the warhorses to move in one direction and completely get rid of the tracking of the animals controlled by the priests."

George made the decision and said, "That's it. Let's go towards the direction of the Green Flag Camp, towards the east, at full speed."

The group of people seemed to have burst out with new energy, galloping on their horses and hurrying on their way regardless of their injuries.

Due to the fast speed, Richard had to frequently use the divine power sensor to detect the Ouyun professionals, but he did not find many Ouyun people along the way. Even small groups of Ouyun soldiers would be scared away by Richard's magic.

As the only intact second-level combat force in the team, Richard now has to take on the main responsibility and reduce his rest time to patrol and keep watch for the team. Fortunately, the power of faith of the Tiger God can help Richard restore his mental strength, otherwise Richard would have collapsed long ago.

Gradually approaching the Green Flag Camp, the team even encountered traces of a caravan, but the strong smell of blood and scattered bones on the ground made Richard realize that they were also besieged by the Ouyun people. After a stalemate, they were defeated. In the end, the caravan's goods were robbed and everyone was killed.

Richard used his mental power to control a piece of bone, which had teeth marks on it. It seemed that what Bob said was not a lie.

However, the Ouyun people seemed to want to catch them all in one fell swoop, and did not block the road leading to the Green Flag Camp. Instead, they left the opening to allow more people to slip into their pocket.

Richard continued to lead the team forward. Even though he knew there was a dead end ahead, the team could not turn back. Perhaps the only way to survive was before he reached the Green Flag Camp. If he was a few days late, he might still be outside the encirclement of the Ouyun people.

However, without the other two teams, Richard was more likely to be killed by the Ouyun soldiers and turned into a pile of bones.

Approaching the Green Flag Camp, Richard finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Green Flag Camp had already learned of the siege, and a large number of construction workers were building an earth wall outside the camp, which should be used as the foundation for defense.

On the earth wall, a guard asked, "Which team are you from? Why did you come back at this time?"

George, a senior non-commissioned officer, took out his rank badge and replied, "We are a patrol team carrying out a cleanup mission. I am Senior Non-Commissioned Officer George. Please let us into the camp. My teammates need treatment."

The guard did not release him immediately. Instead, he took out a piece of paper and continued to ask, "Have you and your men betrayed the Jeff Kingdom? Will it be detrimental to the Green Flag Camp?"

Richard sensed the power of faith on the paper and guessed it was the Honesty Contract of Monroe, the God of Honesty. It was said that the Honesty Contract had the power to distinguish between truth and lies.

George performed a noble salute, covered his chest with one hand and said, "I swear in the name of my family that my teammates and I have not betrayed the Jeff Kingdom. We are all committed to serving the Green Flag Camp."

The guards then let the group enter the camp. Richard and George, who was less seriously injured, went to the military merit office to hand in their mission. It was obvious that the mission had failed. However, after passing the test of the honesty contract, the two also won the military merit of killing the Ouyun people.

However, under the test of the honesty contract, the original method of distributing military merits that the few people discussed was no longer valid, and the military merits could only be counted strictly according to the number of kills.

After all the hard work, Richard was successfully promoted to senior non-commissioned officer thanks to the lethality of his second-level magic, while George and Bob were still a long way from being flag officers.

After leaving the Military Merit Office, George stopped Richard who wanted to go back, "Richard, you have to live well. As a 16-year-old second-level wizard, your future should be in the Saint Magic Academy of the Jeff Kingdom, not the Green Flag Army."

The Holy Magic Academy of Jeff Kingdom is the highest institution of learning for wizards in Jeff Kingdom. The only sanctuary wizard in Jeff Kingdom serves as the dean of the Holy Magic Academy of Jeff Kingdom.

Richard waved his hand and said casually: "No matter what the future holds, we must survive this time."

Richard returned to the wizard group’s base. The condition of the two wounded who had returned earlier had improved a lot, but he couldn’t help but feel a little scared when he saw that four knights had died. If it weren’t for their injuries, they might have been among the four dead.

Richard gave them a few gold coins and asked them to buy a few tents. In order to speed up the process, the tents were discarded.

Richard took the magic box off the horse's back, and a divine power crystal was shining inside. Richard knew that his current condition was not suitable for absorbing the divine power crystal, so he closed the magic box again.

In the evening, Richard ate a piece of black bread and lay down in the small tent to rest. Tents of the original specifications were no longer available at the Green Flag Camp.

At this moment, a fierce quarrel broke out in the command center of the Green Flag Camp...
