Chapter 917 Breakthrough?

With simultaneous action on both sides.

On the outskirts of Gaoling City and Oasis City, the news of wild beasts attacking humans and causing death quickly spread in the construction team's camp.

For a while, it also caused panic, and even the construction efficiency of the past few days was reduced.

Realizing that he couldn't go on like this, Gawain sighed.

And in the early morning of the next day, all the workers were gathered in the camp for a morning meeting.

"In recent days, the construction efficiency of the project has dropped significantly!"

While speaking, Gawain dignified the project schedule in his hand.

All the workers standing below lowered their heads subconsciously.

"I know what everyone is worried about, but what are you worried about? There are a hundred soldiers in this camp to keep you safe!"

"And on the other side of Gaoling City, a special force has been sent to deal with this matter."

"Perhaps while I was speaking, that beast was disposed of by the soldiers in charge of the clearing mission."

"It's not too long before the winter. I think everyone wants to receive more wages at the end of the month, so that they and their families can live more peacefully and comfortably this winter."

"But according to the current work efficiency, there is no way to achieve this goal!"

The entire morning meeting didn't last long, only about ten minutes.

Gawain knew exactly what to say at such a time.

After the morning meeting, the workers felt a lot more at ease.

Yes, there are so many soldiers in the camp protecting them, what are they afraid of?

Work hard and get some extra pay at the end of the month, that's what they need to care about.

Thinking of this, everyone quickly regained their energy, and their work efficiency slowly returned to the level they should have been.

At the same time, at the other end, the Centuries sent from Gaoling City quickly arrived in the hilly area and started a search mission.

However, this task did not go very smoothly.

After all, the wild area is still very large, and it is not as easy to search for it in a short period of time.

At the end of the day, the Centuries sent to investigate could be said to have found nothing.

This made the centurion who was the leader of the team couldn't help but sigh.

Then looking at the soldiers who had already assembled in front of him, he said loudly...

"Today's task is here, everyone is going to camp for the night, and continue tomorrow!"

However, at this moment, a squad leader standing in the first row of the phalanx suddenly raised his hand.

"Report!"

"What's the matter? Say it!"

"Report to the centurion, one of the underling team failed to return in time!"

Hearing this, the centurion frowned.

"You take a small group of people to the area he is in charge of later."

"clear!"

However, after the meeting, the team leader led the team members to search again, but still could not find the figure of the missing soldier.

After nightfall, the centurion who got the news was about to twist his eyebrows together.

He had an ominous feeling.

And it turns out that his hunch was right.

The body of the missing soldier was found two days later.

The disembodied death was almost the same as the previous deceased, making the atmosphere of the entire military camp instantly dignified.

Faced with such a situation, the soldier who was the centurion naturally responded immediately.

"From today onwards, all soldiers will be in groups of five, act collectively, and do not scatter! Pay attention to taking care of each other!"

However, this approach does not seem to have much effect.

On the fourth day, a soldier who was on duty at night disappeared...

"What's going on? I should have said that we need a group of five to act together, and the night patrol is the same. Why is one person missing? What were the four of you doing at the time?!"

Facing the questioning of the centurion, the expressions on the faces of the remaining four soldiers were full of difficulty.

"Report to the centurion. At that time, Lao Gao said it was convenient to go, but out of caution, Lao Li and I also followed. How do you know, how do you know..."

"How do you know what?"

Looking at the hesitant soldier, the centurion became a little irritable.

"How do you know that when you turn your head, people, people are gone..."

"..."

At this moment, even the soldier who said this was full of disbelief, let alone the centurion who heard it.

A big living person, turned his head and disappeared?

Can it still evaporate out of thin air?

To tell the truth, the centurion thought it was nonsense!

But what to ask is still to be asked.

Inexplicably broke two subordinates, if this matter can not be found out, it would be his great dereliction of duty.

"Think about it carefully, was there any sound at that time, or something else was wrong."

Faced with this question, he has been standing beside him, as if the worried old Li raised his hand.

"Reporting to the centurion, if there is something wrong, it seems that a gust of wind suddenly blew past, and, out of the corner of my eye, I seem to have glimpsed a dark shadow moving at a very fast speed..."

The new information gave the centurion a slight boost.

Although there are no substantive clues in this information, it is better than nothing.

"Why didn't you say it just now?"

"Reporting to the centurion, it was late at night, the light was dim, and there was no moon. I thought I was dazzled, and the wind was blowing on the hills at night. Centurion, when you asked that, I remembered."

Hearing this, the centurion nodded.

However, in the face of this situation, he didn't know what to do for a while, and he could only ask the soldiers under his command to be more vigilant and more careful during the execution of the mission.

A few days later, they found the soldier who was missing that night. Obviously, it was already a corpse.

The method of death was exactly the same as the previous deceased, which made the atmosphere of the entire army more subtle.

Gradually, rumors began to spread among the soldiers.

Said one is more evil than the other.

But fortunately, their caution probably played a role, and during that time, there were no more soldiers missing.

And it was at this time that the task of the search team had a new progress.

They found a footprint in a hilly area.

The size of those footprints was much smaller than the size of a normal adult human, about the size of a child.

This discovery is a major breakthrough for the search team that has not been able to find a breakthrough for a long time.

After conducting a test and recording, they quickly sent the report up.

The update is sent, and I also thank the book friends for the monthly passes of 'Huahua 3912', 'Spring 85 Autumn', 'Do you remember those years', 'Happy Monthly Reading', and 'Colors Like the Wind'!
