Chapter 225: Edge Testing
Chapter 225: Edge Testing
"Lord Alpha, I am seventeen years old and Sister Fanxing is eighteen. We came here with our family for business. Unfortunately, we encountered a storm at sea and all of us were killed. We have no relatives in the East. Therefore, we hope to follow you, Lord Alpha." Mingyue was surprised when she heard Alpha speak the oriental language so fluently.
They have lived here for nearly three months and have suffered many cold stares and deceptions due to language barriers. Both of them are trying hard to learn English, but without a foundation and no teacher, they can only communicate in some simple ways. Unexpectedly, the new owner can speak their mother tongue.
"Okay, you guys stay here first. I need to rest, you guys feel free to do whatever you want." Alpha looked at the clear and innocent eyes of the two people and realized that they were trustworthy, so he lay down in the quilt at the back of the car to rest.
"Sir, let me accompany you." Fanxing actually began to take off her clothes. However, Alpha had already fallen into a deep sleep and did not give Fanxing any chance at all.
As time passed, Mingyue and Fanxing gradually adapted to the life on the journey. Their presence added a bit of warmth and joy to Alpha's journey. And Alpha also silently vowed in his heart that he would do his best to protect them and safeguard their safety and dignity.
On the vast continent, the Orff family and the Alpha Corps, two powerful forces, are like the stars and the moon in the night sky, shining on each other but fighting each other. In an accidental encounter, the fate of the two sides began to intertwine, and a thrilling contest began.
"Lord Macron, are those the Alpha Legion, our old enemy of the Orff family?" the young knight asked doubtfully, with a hint of contempt in his eyes. However, the experienced Macron did not think so, as he knew that the enemy's strength should not be underestimated.
"Don't underestimate the enemy. Their eyes are full of vigilance and their movements are flexible and orderly. These are the characteristics of veterans." Macron's eyes were like torches, staring at the enemy in the distance. He knew in his heart that this battle would be extremely difficult, but he was not afraid. Only by defeating the enemy could he defend the honor of his family.
Macron turned around and gave an order: "Everyone stay alert and be ready to fight at any time. Send out scouts to closely monitor the movements of the Alpha Legion." The knights responded in unison, and a tense atmosphere filled the camp.
At the same time, the Alpha Legion regrouped after a rest. Alpha stood in front of the team, his eyes firm and calm. After communicating with Mingyue and Fanxing, he became more aware of his responsibilities and mission.
"Sir, we encountered scouts from the Orf family, and they seem to be very interested in us." Mark reported to Alpha. "Stay alert and don't take the initiative to cause conflict. Our goal is to reach the new city of Beth smoothly." Alpha's answer showed his calmness and wisdom.
As the two teams moved further apart, the tense atmosphere gradually dissipated, but everyone knew that this was only a temporary calm and future conflict was inevitable.
As night fell quietly, Alpha sat in the tent, with a very detailed map spread out in front of him. His fingers gently moved on the map, and finally stopped at a strategic location between Cross City and Beth New City. He knew that this would be a key battlefield to determine the outcome, and the future direction of the situation might very well depend on the upcoming showdown on this land.
"If we can build a city here, it will surely become a prosperous city with easy access to all directions." Alpha turned to the guards around him and gave orders, his eyes as firm and steady as a rock.
"Yes, sir." The guard took the order and turned to leave.
Alpha closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. He knew clearly that this contest with the Orff family was not only a confrontation of military strength, but also a battle of wisdom and patience. He had to be cautious and take every step carefully to ensure victory and the fruits of the final victory.
In a corner of the tent, Mingyue and Fanxing sat quietly, their eyes showing respect and trust for Alpha. They knew that their fate was closely intertwined with this powerful man, and they were willing to give everything for him.
As the night deepened, everything around him was quiet, but Alpha's heart was as clear as a mirror. He knew that the road ahead would be long and bumpy, but he was fully prepared to face every challenge calmly.
As time went by, Alpha began to plan the details of the new city. Alpha imagined that the city's walls would be tall and strong enough to withstand any enemy attack. The market would be full of vitality, and merchants from all over the world would bring rare goods from far away to trade. There would be a magnificent castle in the center of the city, which would not only serve as a hub for military command, but also a symbol of the city's prosperity.
"Mark, I need you to arrange a team of trustworthy people to go to this strategic location and conduct a detailed survey. We need to understand the terrain, water sources, and possible building materials." Alpha said to Mark who had just returned to the tent.
"Yes, sir. When I return, I will personally select the personnel to ensure the smooth completion of the mission." Mark replied, then hurried away to begin executing orders.
Alpha stood up, walked to the door of the tent, looked at the stars in the sky, and his heart was full of longing for the future. He knew that the establishment of this new city was not only for strategic needs, but also to provide people with a stable and prosperous home.
Mingyue and Fanxing also came to his side. They were infected by Alpha's dream and looked forward to starting a new life in this new city.
As the plan progresses, Alpha and his team continue to move forward, full of hope and determination. They know that the road ahead is full of challenges, but they are ready to meet every challenge for their common goal - to build a beautiful and prosperous new city, for the common dream in their hearts.
"Lord Alpha, three reconnaissance teams approached us last night and launched close reconnaissance. However, our unit remained highly vigilant and did not act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy." Mark stood in front of Alpha and reported last night's situation in detail.
"We are well aware that these reconnaissance teams may be sent by the enemy to collect intelligence. If we act rashly, it may expose our strategic deployment and action plan. Therefore, we chose to remain in place and quietly observe their actions." Mark continued to explain.
"During the reconnaissance process, we found that these teams acted very cautiously and seemed to have a strong interest in our fortifications and troop deployment. They used various advanced reconnaissance equipment to try to obtain intelligence on our side. However, due to our tight defense measures, they did not get much valuable information. On the contrary, by monitoring their actions, we have a deeper understanding of their tactics and intentions. This will help us formulate more effective response strategies."
"Lord Alpha, I believe our decision is correct. In the upcoming battle, we will continue to remain vigilant and pay close attention to the enemy's movements to ensure that we can make the right response at the critical moment." Mark's voice was full of confidence.
"Lure the enemy deep into our territory and show them weakness." Alpha knew Mark's tactics.
"Okay, the next battle is up to you, Mark." Alpha knew that Mark was a capable man, and now was the perfect opportunity to give him a platform to display his abilities.
"Yes, Lord Alpha, I promise not to let you down." Mark took the order, and all that was left was to continue to lure the enemy deeper and kill them with one strike.
As time went on, the Orf family's army was gradually lured into the trap carefully prepared by Alpha. Mark and his special forces team took advantage of the night and terrain to quietly set up countless traps and ambush points.
When the Orff family's army realized that something was wrong, they had already entered the encirclement of the Alpha Army. Suddenly, a loud noise broke through the night sky, signaling that the Alpha Army had launched a general attack.
Under Mark's command, the special forces launched a fierce attack on the enemy from all directions like a tiger descending from the mountain. The Orff family's army was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses.
However, the new army of the Orff family was very strong and could hold on tenaciously even in the face of such heavy losses. Mark was unable to defeat the enemy in a short time without using a rifle.
The battle lasted all night, and by dawn, the Orff family's army had been completely defeated and fled in all directions. Alpha achieved his goal, not only successfully defeating the enemy's sneak attack, but also expanding his influence.
As the sun rose, Alpha stood on the battlefield, looking at the mess on the ground. In his heart, he felt the joy of victory and deep thoughts about the future. He knew that this victory was just the beginning, and the real challenges and opportunities were still waiting for him. And he was ready to face everything.
After a night of fierce fighting, the battlefield was filled with smoke and the breath of death enveloped every corner. Alpha knew that this place was full of dangers and could not stay for long. With a firm gaze, he calmly directed everyone to clean up the battlefield and prepare to evacuate. The soldiers looked exhausted, but no one hesitated or stopped.
Mark quickly replenished some water and food. With excitement on his face, he asked Alpha to fight: "Master Alpha, we can still continue fighting!"
Alpha nodded slightly. He understood the courage and determination of the soldiers, but he was more aware of the current situation. He raised his hand, pointed to the distance, and gave an order decisively: "Okay, we will set off immediately and try to get to the base tomorrow afternoon!"
A normal team could reach the destination in one day. However, they needed to bring the laborers along with them, so the journey would take three to four days. This was why Javier was eager to get the Alpha train technology, because it could greatly improve the team's mobility and transportation efficiency.
Alpha took a deep breath and vowed to protect the civilians and get to the base as soon as possible. He led the team with firm steps and embarked on a new journey. The road ahead was full of unknown challenges, but they were not afraid and moved forward courageously.
In the following days, Alpha and his team faced numerous difficulties. Not only did they have to deal with physical fatigue and unknown beasts, but they also had to protect the unarmed civilians. However, their morale was not dampened, but became more united and strong.
Along the way, they worked tirelessly to help the civilians repair their dilapidated vehicles, build temporary camps, and find food and water. With their practical actions, they won the trust and respect of the civilians.
Finally, on the evening of the third day, they successfully arrived at an area 20 kilometers away from the new city of Beth. If they continued on their way, they would reach their destination tomorrow morning. However, the action at night was full of dangers, so after discussion, they decided to set up camp and wait for the day to continue their journey.
In this world full of mystery and fantasy, the cultivation of internal strength and mental skills is regarded as a profound subject.
"How is your inner power training going?" Alpha handed the secret book that combined fighting spirit and inner power to Mingyue and Fanxing. This was not only a transfer of responsibility, but also an ardent expectation for the inheritance of the Eastern secret book.
The practice of inner strength is like a long marathon, progressing slowly but with far-reaching significance. Each practice is a sharpening and improvement of one's inner strength. With the deepening of practice, the strength will gradually increase. Not only that, the inner strength is also believed to have the magical effect of prolonging life, which makes Alpha full of expectations for it.
However, the cultivation of Dou Qi is like a double-edged sword. Although it is fast and can quickly improve strength, its harm to the body should not be underestimated. The hidden injuries continued to accumulate, becoming a huge stone in Alpha's heart. He was eager to find a method, a salvation that could eliminate the hidden injuries in his body.
