Chapter 86 A Plan that Is Not a Plan
"Everyone is here, let's go!"
The old man's eyes returned and he waved his staff gently. A ball of blue light enveloped his body, and he slowly rose from the ground, maintaining a position one meter above the ground.
Piaofei was far away, and the old man's indifferent voice floated from the front: "You can pretend that I don't exist, and I won't give you any help."
"Remember, the moment I help you, it means that you lose the qualification to enter the selection competition!"
Then, the green light on the old man's body began to become stronger, and the next second he disappeared out of thin air in front of everyone.
"This is the map, and these are our number plates for the Demon Hunting Group trials. I give them to you now."
Lin Jialu took out a sheepskin map from her arms, and then several beautifully crafted round tokens inlaid with purple gems.
Long Haoyu came back to his senses, looked at it and put the round token into the ring, and his eyes met Li Xin and Long Haochen.
"According to our assessment requirements, we need to kill thirty demons in total, so that we have completed the assessment."
"But we act as a team. A team must have its own captain to be immortal. I recommend brother Haoyu to be the captain of our team."
Lin Jialu continued speaking and handed the sheepskin map towards Long Haoyu.
When Li Xin heard this, she immediately started teasing: "You have some idea. You know that brother Haoyu is the strongest, but you thought you wanted to steal brother Haoyu's position as captain."
Lin Jialu and Li Xin are happy enemies. As long as they meet together, there will be absolutely no peace.
When Li Xin retorted like this, Lin Jialu immediately got angry: "Li, you want to fight again, don't you think that your strength has improved a lot in the past two years, I can still freeze you into a lump of ice."
"Think I'm afraid of you!"
Li Xin was unconvinced and wanted to have a fight with Lin Jialu.
Long Haoyu took the sheepskin map handed over by Lin Jialu and carefully looked at the markings of the demon territory on the map.
"Sister Xin'er, sister Jialu, please stop arguing for now. The most taboo thing about teamwork is disharmony within the team."
"The mission requirements of thirty demons are not troublesome. Then I will serve as the team leader this time."
"It's four hundred miles from here to the demon territory. We can't waste time. We need to set off immediately."
Long Haoyu stopped the fight between the two women and began to announce his plans for entering the demon territory.
It was dusk now, and it would take several hours to ride to the demon territory. It happened to be the darkest hour of the night, which was very convenient for them to complete the assessment task.
Of course, Li Xin and Lin Jialu couldn't really fight here, and they both agreed with Long Haoyu's arrangement.
After everyone got on their horses, Lin Jialu walked towards Long Haoyu: "Brother Haoyu, I'm wearing a robe and can't ride a horse. Why don't you take me with you and I'll sit behind you."
"You can pull me down, you still want to take advantage of my brother!"
Li Xin at least got to Lin Jialu's side, and without waiting for Lin Jialu to resist, she quickly pulled Lin Jialu onto her horse: "Sit behind me honestly, or I'll kill you!"
Lin Jialu was furious, rolled her eyes at Li Xin angrily, and could only ride with Li Xin honestly.
Long Haoyu chose not to see it, and Long Haochen also chose not to see it, especially the two brothers Chen Si and Chen Chen.
They were accustomed to Li Xin and Lin Jialu being happy enemies.
After everything was settled, Long Haoyu took up his responsibilities as a captain and called on everyone to rush towards the demon territory indicated on the sheepskin map.
Behind a team of six people, the old man was hidden under the magic power. He was not surprised to see that Long Haoyu had indeed become the captain of the team of six people.
"That adult is indeed right. This kid Long Haoyu will indeed become the core of this team."
"If the Lord can give such instructions, it seems that there will be no problems in this assessment."
The old man whispered softly, and then controlled his magical power to support himself and chased Long Haoyu and his group of six people.
A few hours later, night had shrouded the earth. With the number plate of the trial, Long Haoyu and his party had a simple dinner and then entered the demon territory without any hindrance.
In order to avoid exposing them to the demon territory as much as possible, the horses they rode stayed in the Temple Alliance's garrison area, and Li Xin also let her rose unicorn return to its space.
In the darkness, a group of six people advanced quietly in the demon territory.
Lin Jialu has a serious case of princess disease, but when it comes to getting down to business, she is still very reliable.
After chanting a few words softly, the Eagle Eye Technique was activated to monitor the surrounding terrain.
Although it is not as powerful as those powerful magicians who can use the Eagle Eye Technique to monitor a range of nearly a hundred miles around, it is still of great help to their current small team.
"Brother Haoyu, there is a hilly area five miles ahead on the left. There is a bush there. We can advance from there." Lin Jialu said.
Long Haoyu agreed, and with the help of Lin Jialu's eagle eye skills, he quickly reached the bushes over there, and then continued to push deeper.
Every time he passed a place, Long Haoyu would circle it on the sheepskin map and make safety marks. He did not order a short rest until he had advanced eighty miles.
After simply eating some food to replenish some energy, everyone sat together, with many doubts under their nervous expressions.
"It's strange. Why haven't we seen a demon at such a deep distance? How can we ambush like this? How can we wait and see?" Lin Jialu was very puzzled.
Li Xin looked at Long Haoyu: "Brother Haoyu, you haven't said anything. What do you think of the situations we have discovered now?"
Long Haoyu nodded and looked at Long Haochen: "Haochen, let your Haoyue come out. I will immediately analyze the previous events and arrange the next battle plan!"
When Long Haochen heard this, he immediately asked Haoyue to run out. He had given the little guy this name that had not changed since he came back from the Holy Mountain of Knights last time.
Haoyue's sudden appearance immediately startled several people, but after Long Haochen's explanation, they all relaxed their nerves.
"Sister Jialu just said to set up an ambush to wait and see, but there are no demons appearing at such a long distance, so this is something that needs to be considered."
"But the powerful magician Eagle Eye in the demon camp is more effective than you, Sister Jialu. We need to assume that we have been exposed to the other party's monitoring."
"The reason why no demons showed up may be that the other party has already started to play tricks on us, trying to lure us deeper and then annihilate us all!"
"So, the wait-and-see approach doesn't work for us."
Long Haoyu dug into his memory and analyzed it in an orderly manner for everyone to make sure nothing was missed.
When everyone heard this, their hearts immediately rose to their throats. What they thought was a very simple task made them all nervous when Long Haoyu said this.
When they actually entered the battlefield, each of their faces showed a look of contemplation, and they all thought about what to do next.
Long Haochen noticed that his brother was as indifferent as ever: "Brother, what are your battle plans?"
As he spoke, Long Haochen tightened the heavy sword and shield in his hands, and was ready to charge into the battle as a guardian knight should.
"My arrangement is quite simple. Since it may not be possible to wait and wait, let's just make a big fuss and return to the garrison area as quickly as possible."
"It's better to wait and wait than to take the initiative!"
As Long Haoyu spoke, he communicated with Xiao Keqiu again through spiritual communication.
"Little Bristle Ball, are you sure you didn't feel wrong? Is he following?" Long Haoyu asked worriedly, recalling the inspector's soft and uneasy look at the beginning.
Little Coal Ball said firmly: "Master, don't worry, I can recognize his breath even if it turns to ashes. It must be him. He likes to follow you sneakily like this."
"That's good, then my arrangement is just right!"
Long Haoyu felt relieved. Although he was crazy and wanted to kill the demons here, he would not gamble with other people's lives.
For example, causing a commotion among the demons after a big commotion in the demon territory, and ultimately causing sacrifices due to the passive defense of the alliance soldiers stationed in the area, these are not what he wants to see.
Now that everything is in order, with Long Xingyu following secretly, it will be natural for someone to put an end to the matter after it makes a big fuss.
This charming old father would not just watch him and Long Haochen fall at this time, nor would he watch the demons launch an attack on the garrison area after the commotion.
And they can completely escape after completing the assessment task, as long as it is not the supervisor who helps them save their lives and return to the garrison area.
After such a complete set of procedures is followed, then even if they have exploited a loophole in the rules this time, it will not be considered a violation of the assessment regulations.
After Long Haoyu finished speaking about this unplanned plan, Li Xin was instantly silenced.
Not only her, but Lin Jialu and others were also silent on the spot, completely unable to keep up with Long Haoyu's unconventional arrangement.
Among the few people, only Long Haochen was very calm and not surprised at all by his brother's arrangement.
This kind of arrangement is more in line with his brother's style of doing things. If it changes, he won't look like his brother anymore.
The old man who had been secretly observing the six Long Haoyu people almost failed to control his magic control and was exposed at this time.
It is better to take the initiative than to wait and wait. What kind of battle plan is this? Is this kid so reckless?
After confirming that he had heard correctly, the expression on the old man's face became a little uneasy. He suddenly felt that the burden on Alexander's shoulders had become much heavier.
Somewhere along the way, he realized that this time the assessment seemed to be very complicated, and the situation would become very serious.
