Chapter 679: Purpose of War

"You don't know? Colonel Kelso, are you challenging my IQ?" Catherine said coldly.

The colonel hesitated to speak, and finally bowed his head and said: "This subordinate really doesn't know, and is willing to accept any punishment."

Being punished by Catherine is at most suffering for herself, and it is better than offending Ke Meng and causing the whole family to suffer. Kelso is quite clear about the gains and losses in this. Catherine glanced at him. This middle-aged colonel has served in the army for many years and has always been rigorous in his work. He has never heard of any major troubles. This time, the hunting group that was originally in charge of the periphery was sent to the second-level theater. Such an obvious mistake can no longer be described as negligence. Catherine believes that he will not make such a low-level mistake, so the remaining possibility is that he has a grudge against Allen, and he took advantage of the convenience of his public office to take revenge and deliberately lead Allen's team to an extremely dangerous war zone. Secondly, it was concealed by others, who could modify the mission and make a colonel feel scruples. At this moment in the army, that person is ready to come out.

Komon!

Catherine waved her hand and said, "If you make the same mistake again, I will not forgive you lightly. Now, do your job well."

Kelso looked at her in surprise, then nodded and sat down.

"Notify that team and let them return to camp immediately." Catherine said hastily.

The tactical staff showed a embarrassed expression: "General, the source of energy in the chaotic canyon is disordered, and the interference of the magnetic field is very serious. It is not easy for us to receive signals. If we want to achieve communication, it is obvious that the performance of the equipment they carry is far from sufficient."

"Then, look at which ground forces are in the secondary theater and move them there to support."

"But in that case, wouldn't the original layout of the ground battlefield be disrupted?"

Catherine said coldly: "It's okay, if necessary, I will fight in person. That person is the one Marshal Capulo wants to fight for, in case something happens to him in this operation. Don't say that Marshal Capulo will blame him. I am afraid that someone will find out afterwards that our mission system has been modified, and it will attract the enemy of Bethkind. Compared with the two, one or two loopholes in the layout of the ground battlefield are nothing at all."

The staff officer was sweating profusely, only then did he realize that the matter was so important.

Catherine went back to the bridge and sat down, her fingers interlocked, her face gloomy. Seeing her like this, the people below did not dare to take a breath, for fear of causing the general's displeasure.

Chaos Canyon.

A tall and strong figure suddenly appeared from the waist-length grass. The Cato warrior yawned and let go of a smudged battle ax in his hand. He found a piece of limestone protruding from the sea of ​​grass, and sat on it. The thick plate armor and rocks on his body made an unpleasant sound.

Before the Catu's butt was warmed up, another warrior climbed up the limestone. As soon as he lifted his thigh, he kicked his colleague off, and then he laughed loudly, and the laughter rumbled like thunder across the sea of ​​grass in this canyon.

This is a rare open area in the canyon. A long and narrow strip of grass passes through the towering cliffs on both sides, with several strange trees with twisted branches standing in the middle, as well as blocks of large and small limestone. Chaos canyons are mostly complex and changeable terrains, and there are not many long valleys like this without too many twists and turns. As long as the Cato people stand on the limestone, they can see the scene in the valley and the sea of ​​grass.

But now, the two Cato fighters seem to be having a dispute. Their family has never had anything to do with words like "harmony" and "unity". Even if they are compatriots, if they disagree with each other, they will resort to force. Therefore, the individual combat strength of the Catu tribe is eye-catching, but it is always like a pan of loose sand, unable to condense the power it should have. Therefore, it is always below the middle in the ranking of the strong tribes in the Jotun star field.

At this moment, the two Catus who were fighting for a piece of limestone had already wrestled. After several rounds of punching and kicking, they separated panting. The soldier who was beaten until he lost his helmet could only shrug his head and rest under a strange tree next to him. Win the one and sit proudly on the gray rock, as if there were a throne under your ass. The figures of the two Catus fell into the eyes of one person with red pupils.

Allen raised his hand and gestured to the Catu man under the tree. Belmode, who was next to him, nodded, and turned into a human and fled away silently. Allen suddenly jumped onto the rock with Xue Yin in his hand, and whistled forward. The Cato warrior who was also sitting on the gray rock was stunned, apparently he did not expect a human to appear in this place. At such a moment of distraction, the screams of his comrades sounded from under the tree next to him.

Belmode appeared from behind the Catu man under the tree. The black magic wings stretched from behind his shoulders wrapped around the Catu warrior, and a sharp short knife had already cut the warrior's throat. With one hit, Belmode slid back in an instant to prevent the enemy's dying counterattack. The Cato people are indeed tenacious and crazy enough. Blood gushed out of his throat, but the warrior was still able to throw a throwing ax at Belmode, and then he fell to the ground and died.

The throwing ax made Belmode dodge with his head tilted, only cutting off a few strands of his hair.

The soldier on the gray rock finally reacted, and he lifted a beam rifle covered with dark patterns from the ground. Just as he was about to attack Belmode, he heard a sharp piercing sound in his ears. He turned his head subconsciously, and saw Allen shooting towards him. A red light suddenly lit up in the silver-haired boy's hand, and in the blink of an eye, there was nothing but a dense red light in his sight.

The world in his eyes suddenly slanted and split, dislocated up and down, and the middle was pitch black like an abyss. With the pitiful intelligence of the Catu people, the warrior lost his consciousness completely before he could figure out what was going on. Alan cut off half of his head with a knife, and he died so badly that he couldn't die anymore. Immediately, the body fell to the ground, and the rough beam rifle slid from the limestone to Alan's feet.

Allen picked it up and gestured back for safety. As a result, several figures appeared in the long grass. Reina strode forward with a warhammer in hand, and said in a muffled voice, "Next time there will be sentries, let me deal with them."

"Your movements are too slow. When you approach, people have already sounded a warning." Regis said with his hands behind his head, biting a straw core.

Reina glared at him: "So what's the warning? It would be better to call the main force here. It also saves you from sneaking over in such a sneaky way. What's the fun in fighting like this?"

"This is war, Reina." Allen couldn't agree with his brother's opinion: "The only purpose of war is victory. As for fun, that is dispensable."

"I don't think it's possible for these two things to coexist." Reina said stubbornly.

Lucy watched the two of them shake their heads, but Belmode jumped down from the vigilant canopy and said in a deep voice, "Go, an enemy force is coming."

"How many people?"

"About twenty or thirty people, this kind of open place is not good for us." Belmode reminded: "I saw a big guy carrying a beam cannon, once that kind of thing shoots, the two young masters should know how powerful it is. "
