195 Chapter - Trump Card, New Employee!
Although Bai Cheng outwardly stationed the Pioneers at the edge of the Rainforest, in reality, she didn't fully trust them.
When Lü Duo left, she had used her abilities to leave a few offensive plants around the territory.
If they were destroyed, Lü Duo would know about it immediately.
And Chiyan immediately rushed over to inform Bai Cheng of the situation.
Bai Cheng had thought that the employees' split action would successfully deal with Chen Xiao, but she hadn't expected that fellow to ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ also pull a fast one on her.
A hint of surprise appeared on Bai Cheng's face.
No wonder that guy, knowing this trial would coincide with hers, still didn't choose to leave.
“It seems they want my talent.”
With Xiao Ran's foresight, she had no doubt that these guys wouldn't fight an unprepared battle.
“But the other party should know I'm not in the Rainforest... Why would they still attack there?”
This was something Bai Cheng couldn't understand.
Meanwhile, Zi Yuan, who was beside her, immediately said anxiously, “Miss, let's go back quickly!”
Chiyan said in a deep voice, “Eldest Miss, when I came to report, I had already sent Qingniao there at the fastest speed, and Lü Duo is also on her way...”
He paused for a moment, sounding a bit uncertain.
“However, if the other party has War General-level employees, it will be very difficult for the base's current defenses to stop them.”
After all, Bai Cheng's War General-level employees had all been dispatched at this moment, leaving only Yu Nian and Leng Ningxue in the territory. With their current strength, it would be impossible to stop a War General-level employee.
Chiyan's words were very clear; he was worried that Qingniao wouldn't be able to return in time, and the two young ladies might encounter misfortune.
Bai Cheng nodded, of course understanding Chiyan and Zi Yuan's concerns.
But she didn't seem anxious at all at this moment, instead muttering with a hint of uncertainty in her tone.
“Having killed so many lords, the accumulated experience points should be enough to cultivate a War General-level one, right?”
As soon as she said this, Huang Yu's eyes behind her lit up, and he reacted immediately... Time rewound to half an hour ago in the Rainforest Area.
Inside Liu San's castle.
When Bai Cheng asked her allies to monitor the Rainforest perimeter, Liu San had sent several of his employees in different directions.
In his words, he didn't trust the defense to those unfamiliar Pioneers, so he wanted to personally oversee it.
And Liu San's talent happened to be the ability to share vision with employees or other creatures after marking them.
A talent very suitable for positional reconnaissance.
The employee responsible for guarding the grassland direction was inexplicably killed. In the employee's last sight, Liu San saw the rebellious Pioneers, eight hundred troops invading the Rainforest, and an unfamiliar young girl.
Liu San was shocked and immediately reacted, sending a message to Bai Cheng at the first opportunity.
“Multiple Pioneers have betrayed the alliance, Miss Bai Cheng, you must be careful! Chen Xiao has already led her elite forces to secretly attack from the grassland direction!”
Liu San was naturally aware of Bai Cheng's actions to conquer other leaders, and he was worried about the Rainforest Area's defenses being weak.
Of course, Bai Cheng was not at the base, so the message was received by Yu Nian and Leng Ningxue.
Their initial reaction upon seeing this message was naturally disbelief.
If you had said that the rebellious ones were the Pioneers or Forerunners in the Channel, or even the Survivors from other Channels who had just joined the alliance, there would at least be some credibility.
But it specifically said that the rebellious ones were those Pioneers from their original Channel #2.
The Pioneers knew Bai Cheng's strength better than anyone; daring to rebel wasn't just seeking death?
“This Liu San wasn't originally from our Channel. Perhaps he and Chen Xiao conspired together to use a trick to lure the tiger out of its mountain, specifically to ambush the front line!”
Yu Nian was the first to raise an opposing view.
Leng Ningxue, beside her, also frowned. This was indeed very suspicious given the uncertainty of whether Liu San was trustworthy.
As for the reduced number of people in the Channel, perhaps it was all an act they and Chen Xiao had orchestrated long ago?
“No need to worry. I feel that if Bai Cheng works a bit harder on the front lines, she'll accumulate enough experience points.”
Leng Ningxue was not flustered at all, merely looking at the stored magic crystal beside her.
And next to this magic crystal, there was indeed an employee card constantly flashing with a golden halo.
With so many War General-level employees on their side, how could Bai Cheng possibly leave the base completely undefended?
What's more, Yu Nian and Leng Ningxue were still here.
The rules of the alliance had already put Bai Cheng on guard at first glance.
There were no constraints between allies, meaning that besides needing mutual agreement to join an alliance, withdrawing was entirely a personal action, unaffected by anything.
And this golden employee card was the trump card she left for the two of them, in case of special circumstances, to facilitate a response.
At the same time, it made the temporary item of the stored magic crystal crucial.
Although the credibility of Liu San's words made Yu Nian and the other woman suspicious, they still immediately sent soldiers to the grassland area to investigate.
However, twenty minutes later, they did not receive a message, but rather a notification on the screen that a commander had been killed.
【Our soldier commander (Wang Ershiyi) has been killed!】
The two were stunned immediately.
Wang Ershiyi was precisely the commander they had just dispatched!
“It seems Liu San was telling the truth. Many Pioneers have betrayed us, and Chen Xiao really wants to ambush our main base.”
Yu Nian's gaze sharpened as she looked at Leng Ningxue beside her.
“Let's use the employee card directly!”
As Bai Cheng's crew members, their authority on the train was almost indistinguishable from Bai Cheng's, which naturally included summoning employees.
And it happened that at this moment, Leng Ningxue noticed that their ranking points were skyrocketing, and the promotion of a new employee to War General was almost certainly going to happen.
“Okay!” She nodded, decisively picking up the Legendary Employee card and choosing to use it.
The card instantly dissipated, turning into specks of starlight that scattered and then slowly converged into a graceful and charming figure.
“It's a girl!” Yu Nian immediately determined the gender.
“Don't tell me, recruiting a Legendary Employee is still a bit exciting.”
The golden light finally solidified.
The young girl wore a dark blue, slim-fit camouflage uniform, with long hair like the ocean cascading over her shoulders.
Her most striking features were a black, mechanical-style goggle on her forehead and a super cute little fish hairpin clipped to her head.
Her flawless face, though delicate and beautiful and expressionless, didn't have the cuteness of Zi Yuan or the shyness of Lü Duo; instead, it exuded a sense of sternness and heroism.
Judging solely by her demeanor, this new employee seemed more like a seasoned soldier.
“Greetings, my two lords.” She knelt on one knee, her words respectful, yet carrying a coldness that kept others at a distance.
“No need to be so polite,” Leng Ningxue said with a smile, immediately stepping forward.
Then she handed over the stored magic crystal.
“Here, use these experience points first. There are enemies waiting for you to deal with in a moment.”
