Chapter 214: Hunting in the Western Mountain Range

“So, what you mean is that we have to go out and kill monsters to level up?”

Yan Wuyue said awkwardly, “But in your current condition, wouldn’t it be seeking death to face a beast tide?”

At this moment, Zhou Mingrui gave a mysterious smile and said, “Why do we have to deal with the beast tide?”

Yan Wuyue paused for a moment. The next moment, she looked up at Zhou Mingrui as if she had thought of something. “You’re saying…”

“That’s right. We can go to other places. Why do we have to fight the beast tide head-on?” Zhou Mingrui said with a smile.

“But the beast tide could break out at any time. If we leave like this, won’t we…” Yan Wuyue said with some hesitation.

However, Zhou Mingrui smiled confidently. “Don’t worry. I can even tell you with confidence that the beast tide won’t be launching an attack any time soon. Even if they do, it’s only a probing attack.”

“You’re really that sure?” Yan Wuyue was still a little worried.

“Wuyue, let me ask you. If the beast tide really launches a full attack now, what can you and I do?”

“The only thing we can do now is to head to other places and kill monsters as quickly as possible to unseal and improve ourselves.” Zhou Mingrui said in a very serious tone.

“Only in this way can we have the strength to come back and help the defense line. This is the best way to do it, right?”

Yan Wuyue closed her eyes and opened them two seconds later. “You’re right. I’m too stubborn. What’s your choice now?”

“I was thinking about it when they were having a discussion today. I looked at the map and found that the most suitable place for us is the west.” Zhou Mingrui answered.

“The west is a mountain area with a higher altitude. The monsters there are more agile.” Yan Wuyue touched her chin and pondered.

“The north is too far away from us. It’s not suitable for us to come back if something happens. Didn’t you see that the reinforcements from the north were the last to arrive two days ago?”

“As for the east side, it’s near the ocean. Once the monsters there enter the sea, we would be really helpless. Not to mention, if something happens in the ocean, it’ll be difficult for us to escape.”

“I choose the west in the end. Although it’s pretty troublesome over there, it is the most suitable place for us to go at the moment.”

“And isn’t the agile type the easiest to deal with at the moment?”

“I didn’t expect you to think so thoroughly this time. I have to praise you this time.” Yan Wuyue commended.

“Alright, let’s request to the Lieutenant General quickly. Let’s not waste any more time.” Zhou Mingrui laughed and urged.

Yan Wuyue nodded and dialed Lieutenant General Yu’s number after turning on the watch’s communicator.

After the call was connected, Yan Wuyue explained the situation. Lieutenant General Yu only paused for a second before saying, “Okay, I’ll arrange for the fastest plane to take you there now, but promise me that you must take care of your safety.”

“I can understand the danger, but don’t put yourself in a situation where there’s only a slim chance of survival. I don’t want to personally send away the future of a human.” Lieutenant General Yu’s expression was calm, but his words were very serious.

“I understand, Lieutenant General!” Yan Wuyue’s answer was firm.

“Alright, go to the airport now. I’ll give the order immediately.” Lieutenant General Yu hung up after he finished speaking.

“It’s really as the saying goes, it’s easier to do things with someone in the court. If it wasn’t for Lieutenant General Yu’s high regard for us, it would have taken us at least two days to get there without the support of the plane.” Zhou Mingrui said with a sigh.

“Tsk, why else do you think I made such a battle plan? Only those who know how to use all the resources around them are truly smart.” Yan Wuyue said and rushed to the airport with Zhou Mingrui.

“As soon as they arrived at the airport, a soldier in a flight suit immediately came forward and asked, “Are you Snow Leopard?”

Yan Wuyue nodded.

“Lieutenant General Yu has already given his orders. I will be the one to send you to your destination. Please follow me.”

After saying that, the pilot walked in front to lead the way. Yan Wuyue and Zhou Mingrui quickly followed him and soon arrived in front of a small plane.

It was a small military rapid transport plane. It could reach half the speed of a fighter plane and could carry up to several tons of supplies. It was specifically used for emergency missions.

“Get on the plane.” The pilot cut to the chase. He opened the cabin door for Zhou Mingrui and Yan Wuyue to get in before heading straight to the pilot’s seat.

After a series of operations, the plane began to move forward. With the huge power of the thrusters, it quickly rose into the air.

Zhou Mingrui was rendered speechless by this scene. There were all sorts of summoned spirits and summoners in this world. Logically speaking, technology should not have developed to such an extent.

Although it wasn’t a medieval country like in the novels, it was unlikely to have the same developed technological level as Zhou Mingrui’s hometown. He felt that something was amiss.

The plane’s speed was getting faster and faster, and the surrounding scenery was also constantly flying backward.

Under such circumstances, the gravitational acceleration caused by their rapid flight did not affect Yan Wuyue and Zhou Mingrui at all. Hence, their speed began to soar.

In less than an hour, the plane crossed a distance of nearly 2700 kilometers in a straight line and brought Yan Wuyue and Zhou Mingrui to the western defense line.

After landing at the airport of the Western Military District, the pilot said, “According to the Lieutenant General’s instructions, I’ll be waiting here for you for half a month at most. During this time, if you need to return, I’ll bring you back as soon as possible.”

“Thank you for waiting. We’ll be back as soon as possible.” Yan Wuyue also expressed her gratitude.

Then, she brought Zhou Mingrui to the western defense line’s military base to report.

“You’re bringing your summoned spirit into the Yakas Mountains alone?” The officer in charge of registration asked in surprise.

“Yes, we’re on a special mission issued by Lieutenant General Yu.” Yan Wuyue directly used this excuse to block many of the following questions.

As expected, the officer immediately shut up when he heard about the special mission. He quickly registered and provided a certain amount of resources.

When Yan Wuyue was about to leave, she gave a military salute.

After returning the greeting, Yan Wuyue got into the special transport car and drove straight out of the military area.

After more than an hour of driving, the two of them got out of the car and arrived at the nearest entrance to the mountain range.

After the salute, the driver turned around and left.

As he looked at the mountain range outside the valley, Zhou Mingrui could not help but laugh. “Next, this place will be filled with our footprints and our names.”

“Look at how smug you are. Don’t leave behind a dirty name of running away in a sorry state.” Yan Wuyue left immediately after complaining.
