Chapter 574 Execute the Mission!

After eating, everyone began to meditate and rest immediately. For the students in the inner courtyard, this kind of task was already commonplace. In the outer courtyard, Beibei, Xu Sanshi, He Caitou and Jiang Nannan are older and faster to accept.

But this matter was decided by Elder Xuan, and no one present could change it. Wang Yan knew very well that what Elder Xuan did was not to let Xiao Chen and the others directly participate in the killing, but to let them see the whole mission. Accelerate their mental age growth. No matter how close the academy's assessment and discussions are to actual combat, it is not as good as real combat in this atmosphere, which can sharpen people's minds. In fact, the real main attack was still the seven people in the inner courtyard.

Elder Xuan did not enter the barracks because he was unwilling to establish a relationship with the officials. With his strength and status, he could represent Yinchen Academy. But his old man will never lose track of these students, so he is sure to bring these young people to the war.

After three hours of meditation, everyone's fatigue was swept away. At this time, it was already past noon, after eating the lunch prepared by Durex. Durex handed over all the information collected by the Central Army Corps to them.

According to the information, the main area of ​​activity of the Death Hand Bandit Group is in the central area of ​​the Mingdou Mountain Range. They will only go down the mountain to plunder at the fastest speed when they have a specific target. There are about three hundred members of the entire bandit group. All young adults. Among them, soul masters accounted for about one-tenth of the number. There is no accurate information on who the leader of the bandit group is. I just know that it is a soul master whose cultivation base is at least above the level of soul king, and there is no way to know his ability.

The reason why there is so little information is because the hands of death have never left anyone alive, and the methods are extremely cruel.

The latest information comes from about half a month ago, they robbed a group of merchants and escaped into the Mingdou Mountain Range. Intelligence has a general bearing from which it leaves.

That's all the information the military can provide, because it is possible to enter the territory of the Sun Moon Empire to fight, so the Western Group Army can't give manpower help, and even the flying soul guide they borrowed cannot be carried into the mountain.

Time was running out, and they were going to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition. After confirming the information and getting the map, everyone set off immediately. First, he used the flying soul guide to fly to the entrance of the mountain as indicated by the information under the guidance of the white tiger guards. Then he removed the flying soul guide and entered the Mingdou Mountain Range with the map provided by the military.

"Keep the formation. I, Dai Yaoheng and Chen Zifeng are in front, with an interval of ten meters, and the control system and auxiliary system are behind. Xiao Chen, come here, follow me, and maintain mental detection. Beibei, Xu Sanshi, you two are behind. .Set off!"

Arima Xiaotao and the other three opened the way ahead, moving very fast. Chen Zifeng's soul-chasing sword was most effective at this time, with the sword in front, all the thorns were cut quickly. Coupled with the great strength of Dai Yueheng and Ma Xiaotao, a passage was easily opened. When the sky darkened, they had already penetrated into the Mingdou Mountain Range.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Wang Yan reminded Ma Xiaotao, "Let everyone take a break and eat something.

"

Ma Xiaotao nodded, "Everyone rests where they are, and no fire is allowed, so as not to startle the snake. I'm afraid we will have to search all night tonight."

Wang Yan said in a deep voice: "I checked the surrounding situation just now, plus the observations along the way, so far I have discovered a few things."

"Wenlan tree has appeared near here. Wenlan tree is a relatively rare tree species. Its heart can be used as medicine, and its trunk is as hard as iron. It is most suitable for making all kinds of furniture. Its growth requires extremely high air. Only Its living environment can only be found in places with extremely rich vegetation. I once read in an ancient book that the place where the Wenlan tree grows must be at least fifty miles deep into the dense forest before it will appear. Its tree heart is very helpful for soul masters who cultivate yin-cold martial arts."

Ma Xiaotao frowned and said, "Mr. Wang, what do you mean by these words?"

Wang Yandao: "What I mean is that the appearance of Wen Lanshu means that we have entered the core area of ​​the Mingdou Mountain Range, or at least the edge of the core area. According to our information, the leader of the Death Hand bandit group may It's an evil soul master. Just now, I discovered this."

While talking, he took out a tree trunk from his storage soul guide. This section of the trunk was half damaged by something, and there was a cylindrical hollow inside.

Wang Yandao: "This is the Wen Lan tree. The heart of the Wen Lan tree is dark blue. It is gone now. That is to say, it was poached away by someone. Combined with our goal this time, we can boldly assume that this is the tree. A bandit leader or his subordinates did it. The purpose is to feed the bandit leader. If this is the case, then there is a high possibility that the enemy we are facing is an evil soul master. At the same time, it also means So we should not be far from the enemy."

Ma Xiaotao said: "I agree with the previous point, but why do you say that we are not far from the enemy? Doesn't this wenlan tree grow in other places?" Wang Yan analyzed so much with just a few clues. Everyone had to admire her intelligence, so Ma Xiaotao unconsciously used the respectful words that should be given to the teacher.

Wang Yan smiled confidently, and said: "I just said that the Wenlan tree is a rare tree species. Since it is rare, it is naturally rare. What I just said was just its growth environment. But it really grows Wenlan tree. There are very few places with trees. There are quite a lot of Wenlan trees around here. It is the largest Wenlan forest I have ever seen.

And its tree heart not only has an auxiliary effect for the soul master who cultivates the Yin-cold martial soul, but also enhances the internal organs' tolerance to the Yin-cold soul power. It is a rare good thing. For them, it can be regarded as a treasure of heaven and earth.

If it were you, would you give up such a good thing? Therefore, I can almost conclude that since the bandits discovered and dug Wen Lanshu's heart here, they must not be stationed too far away from here. We were lucky to find our target without taking any detours. Otherwise, the mountains are so vast, and if we don’t find them tomorrow, we can only do aerial reconnaissance to attract the attention of the enemy to defend and counterattack. "

Wang Yan's words made everyone feel admiration. Among the fourteen students, only Xiao Chen and Xiao Xiao were taught by him. But the three of them only knew that Wang Yan's research on martial arts was very deep and knowledgeable. But I didn't expect him to have such a wealth of experience in the wild.

Ma Xiaotao subconsciously asked: "Teacher Wang, what should we do now? Should we wait for the rabbit?"

Wang Yan shook his head and said, "No, we have to take the initiative to attack. When people walk in the woods, they always leave some clues.
