Chapter 526 Wait for Me
"Calm down! Shadow Crow!" A burly man, well over two meters tall, stepped forward, hastily blocking the Tang sword-wielding man known as "Shadow Crow."
But this two-meter-tall giant was actually being pushed forward by the Tang sword man. The scene looked like a small car pushing a bus.
"Pah!" The prisoner, held by two officers, groggily opened his eyes and spat a mouthful of bloody phlegm at the Tang sword man, speaking in strangely accented English, "Chinese dogs, we don't need your help! Go back to your home."
"I'll f*** your..."
"Shadow Crow," a hoarse voice came.
The chaotic scene instantly stopped, and everyone turned to look.
Two-Tail looked at the two soldiers holding the prisoner and said, "Go."
"Get out! Go back to your China! We have a savior! Long live Concg Kin De!" The prisoner struggled frantically, shouting loudly, his bloodshot eyes filled with fanaticism like a believer.
The soldiers quickly left with the prisoner, and Two-Tail's narrow eyes fixed on Shadow Crow.
The man squatted down, gripping his Tang sword tightly in his hand, his chest heaving violently, his anger still simmering.
The burly man beside him said, "Captain, what did the superiors say?"
Two-Tail: "At all costs, the mission must be completed. Only success is allowed, no failure."
The burly man grew anxious and said, "The team has suffered heavy casualties, and manpower is severely lacking. Our team has even lost the medical staff..."
Shadow Crow snorted coldly: "Don't need medical staff, and don't need large-scale encirclements. Pull up a few night watchmen who are agile fighters, and directly hunt down that bitch. At worst, there's no return! The more people there are, the more damage that bitch will cause!"
The burly man said, "The Night Watchmen are all helping them destroy the Sacred Ruins, where are you going to get people to transfer?"
"I agree with 80%," Two-Tail said.
"Huh?" Shadow Crow was stunned, never expecting his captain to say such a thing.
The burly man asked in confusion, "Captain?"
Two-Tail: "I called for backup."
The burly man: "The higher-ups sent us people?"
Two-Tail shook his head: "I called my own backup."
The burly man's expression grew anxious: "Captain, this is our Light Chasers' mission, a secret mission, a serious military mission. You can't just call a..."
Shadow Crow stopped him: "Sky Dog."
The burly man, codenamed "Sky Dog," stopped speaking and realized his attitude. He nodded apologetically to Two-Tail.
Two-Tail said, "He is a Light Chaser, my teammate, Nine-Tail. The higher-ups agreed."
Shadow Crow and Sky Dog were both stunned.
Nine-Tail?
Wasn't the Tail Feather Team disbanded? And weren't there only 1 to 4 Tails? Where did a Nine-Tail come from?
Two-Tail said, "While she and her followers are now lying low, we'll go help the nearby troops destroy the Sacred Ruins."
Sky Dog licked his lips and sighed, "Let's destroy as many as we can. Captain, do you think...the future direction of the entire Earth will be like this? Recently, many areas have seen abnormal activity in other dimensions."
Two-Tail: "Shut up and carry out the mission."
...
China, Central Plains Province, in a stadium.
Jiang Xiao and Fang Xingyun sat in the last row, their faces grave.
"You're actually a Night Watchman, and even a Light Chaser," Fang Xingyun said, twisting her hands together, somewhat dazed by Jiang Xiao's words. "I thought you were a Wilderness Reclamation Apprentice."
Jiang Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, I'm reclaiming the wilderness, I'm just an apprentice. But in the Night Watch, I'm a regular soldier. A member of the Light Chaser Squad - Tail Feather Team."
Fang Xingyun stared blankly at Jiang Xiao. What did she just hear? A Light Chaser squad with a designation?
The Night Watch was special enough, and the Light Chaser Corps was even more special. If your squad in the Light Chaser Corps had a designation...
Jiang Xiao stopped talking. It seemed that Hai Tianqing hadn't told Fang Xingyun about his military experience.
Or Hai Tianqing hadn't found the opportunity, or... his way of leaving the team wasn't glorious, so he didn't want to talk about it.
Then Jiang Xiao had no reason to reveal it. He said, "My superior summoned me, and someone is coming to pick me up."
Fang Xingyun asked, "What about your selection competition?"
"I've already made it to the top four, and I've been a starter for a long time. The World Cup doesn't start until June, right?" As Jiang Xiao spoke, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, accompanied by two staff members, came to the last row of seats in the stands.
The middle-aged man gestured to the two staff members, and they turned and left, giving the man and the students some time alone.
On the green field, Yu Jin of Magic City Star Warrior University and Wu Xiaojing of Huadong Naval Military Medical University were still fighting, while at the back of the stands, Jiang Xiao had already entered another world, at least his thoughts had completely detached from the competition.
It is worth mentioning that Hou Mingming won again in the battle just now.
Perhaps it was the favor of the goddess of fortune. When she dragged her battered body and got up, Zhao Wenlong in the distance was lying softly in the deep pit, unable to stand up again.
Although Hou Mingming was spitting blood, covered in dust, and her clothes were ragged, the arc of her blood-stained lips was so proud and confident.
What really made Hou Mingming's confident smile disappear without a trace was that when the two were healed at the same time, Zhao Wenlong woke up very quickly, and his body recovered even faster than hers.
Zhao Wenlong naturally admitted defeat, but Hou Mingming seemed to have noticed a trace of strangeness, which made her think of the private fight between the two last time.
The damaged venue was repaired by the staff, and now it was already the next match.
"Hello, Jiang Xiaopi." The man in the suit extended his hand, very friendly, and introduced himself, "Wu Ji, I am fully responsible for this National Team member selection."
"Hello, Leader," Jiang Xiao stood up, held Wu Ji's hand with both hands, and shook it gently, his etiquette was acceptable.
Wu Ji nodded with a smile and said, "I just received a notice that the Northwest Night Watch wants to transfer people from my team. I thought it was a joke, but it was indeed the notice from above.
This surprised me. I didn't expect that there was a regular Night Watch hidden in my National Team. Through these few games, I think I already know why you were able to join the Night Watch out of turn."
Jiang Xiao said apologetically: "Sorry, I also participated in a few missions before and was specially recruited. Under normal circumstances, I would have to wait until I graduate from college to officially join the Night Watch. I don't know what happened..."
"You don't need to know," Wu Ji suddenly said, "You don't need to ask."
Jiang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, listening to what this leader meant...
Wu Ji leaned forward and put one hand on Jiang Xiao's shoulder, saying, "As long as the country calls, then we will unconditionally play. This is the meaning of our existence."
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment and said, "Veteran?"
Wu Ji nodded and reported his origins: "North China Wilderness Reclamation Army."
He only reported the region, but not the specific team, and continued, "Complete your mission, and if time permits, return to the team as much as possible. I will keep a place for you. Of course, if you can't come back... Student No. 9 will fight for you on the field."
Jiang Xiao was extremely moved. He thought there would be some trouble, but now it seemed that everything was going smoothly: "Thank you for your support."
Wu Ji turned to look at the field below and said, "The arena, the battlefield, students, soldiers, the forms of expression are different. We return everything to the most essential, as Chinese people, as Star Warriors, what is the meaning of our existence?"
Jiang Xiao: "Uh..."
Wu Ji said, "Your team leader will write down my contact information. When you come back, report directly to me. I now specially approve you to leave the team."
Jiang Xiao nodded heavily: "Thank you."
"No thanks, you do what you should do, and I do what I should do." Wu Ji looked at Jiang Xiao with a serious face and tilted his head to the outside, gesturing slightly, "Waiting at the door, those people will be here in a while."
Jiang Xiao stood up, picked up the giant blade in his hand, glanced at Fang Xingyun, turned and walked down the stands.
"Comrade, come back alive." Behind him, Wu Ji's serious voice suddenly came.
Jiang Xiao's heart sank. This level of character probably knew some information. From another perspective, being able to have Two-Tail call from Xu Du to transfer people meant that the level of this mission was conceivable.
Doesn't the huge Northwest Night Watch have excellent medical Star Warriors?
Absolutely impossible! What is the reason that makes Two-Tail so determined to transfer Jiang Xiao?
Is it because of a shortage of manpower? Or is it because of trust?
Of course, Jiang Xiao didn't need to belittle himself. For others, perhaps Jiang Xiao was not the best.
But for Two-Tail, who had accompanied Jiang Xiao's growth and knew him well, Jiang Xiao's strength was definitely strong to a certain extent.
It was no problem for Captain Two-Tail to transfer members from his Tail Feather Team, it was just that this team member's identity was a bit special and he was currently participating in a competition.
Most of the agile fighters in the field were sharp-eared and sharp-eyed. Several people turned their heads to look, and this action also made other students who were still watching and had not yet noticed look over.
They saw Jiang Xiao carrying a giant blade, walking down the stands, and turning to the players' tunnel.
Hou Mingming hurriedly flipped down, stood at the exit of the players' tunnel, looked at the departing figure in the tunnel, and shouted loudly, "Jiang Xiaopi! Where are you going?"
Jiang Xiao walked quickly, without responding.
Hou Mingming couldn't hear the conversation just now clearly, but she heard the last sentence very clearly.
Come back alive?
This was already serious to a certain extent.
Hou Mingming looked at Jiang Xiao's departing back and said, "Remember, we still have a battle between us."
Jiang Xiao didn't turn around, just waved his hand: "See you at the World Cup."
Jiang Xiao returned to the locker room, took out his schoolbag from the locker, took out his phone, and unlocked the screen as he walked.
Sure enough, many missed calls.
Jiang Xiao thought for a while and dialed Two-Tail back, but it never connected.
Standing outside the main gate of Xu Du City Stadium, Jiang Xiao saw a military vehicle speeding towards him.
Jiang Xiao tightened his grip on the giant blade in his hand.
Two-Tail,
Wait for me.
