Chapter 466 - 455: Battle Plan
Only by getting more locals involved can more lives possibly be saved.
"You must guarantee that they all return alive."
"Agree to what I just said, or everything is off the table."
Both sides stubbornly insisted on their own opinions, refusing to yield.
In the silent confrontation, Mo Shang conceded defeat.
Now, he has no choice but to compromise.
Back in the cave, Cheng Xiaoxiao started to replenish her sleep, tonight she had a big job to do.
The others exchanged glances.
Unclear about what Senior Brother and Junior Brother Xiao discussed, they seemed not too happy.
However, this matter was quickly overlooked.
Because Senior Brother announced they would break out in three days, advising everyone to rest well and ensure strength.
Mo Shang was uncertain about the other’s plan and wondered if help was needed?
He could only let the team rest and gather strength for three days.
And Cheng Xiaoxiao asked for three days.
Three days later, the breakout would surely succeed, though he wasn’t very hopeful.
The toughest days have passed, waiting three more days isn’t a problem, he can plan then.
His injuries are still not stable.
After nightfall, the cold wind was whistling, Cheng Xiaoxiao was flying through the forest, darting and leaping swiftly.
As she was about to reach the destination, she stopped running.
She leaped onto a dense tree.
Through the goggles, there was a dense group of deer, closely packed together.
Goodness, wow! Enough to eat for years.
In the eyes of a foodie, eating is always the most important.
Hehe!
Acting alone is indeed much more convenient.
A nimble leap down from the tree canopy, gracefully landing, a strong electric baton appeared in her hand.
Between two steep peaks, the pass was only about three meters wide.
Fierce beasts front, middle, and back, as if advancing in layers, protected the largest body in the center, which was the pass location.
What do they call this group of deer?
They really looked strange, with four deer antlers on their heads, mouths longer than pig snouts, tails only a finger long and short.
Their bodies had patterns like a spilled palette, forming irregular patterns.
The Deer King, with a body like a small mountain, crouched at the most narrow spot, blocking the only way out completely.
Not to mention breaking through, even reaching the middle of the pass wouldn’t be easy.
But... these aren’t much of a problem for someone with external support.
The dark night was perfect for hunting.
Cheng Xiaoxiao stealthily approached, hiding her breath, almost assimilating into the night.
How big was her space ranch now?
Who cares, grab them first.
The agile body flashed, instantly storing several touched fawns into the space.
As the surrounding deer found something amiss, she quickly concealed herself.
Only the wind was heard around.
The restless deer group barely settled down, suddenly lost several companions again.
Frightening the deer deeply.
Cheng Xiaoxiao maneuvered to another place.
Using the same tactic, she ambushed the deer in this area half-asleep half-awake.
Repeating like this.
All night, she kept busy attacking.
As dawn’s light gently illuminated the earth, she had gathered at least seventy or eighty deer.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was extremely satisfied with such a harvest.
Sleeping during the day, ambushing at night, for three days straight, she made the deer panic and restless. If not for the Deer King’s deadly orders, they would have fled.
But Cheng Xiaoxiao didn’t feel well herself.
Especially on the third night, she was discovered twice.
Surrounded by a hundred deer, in several life-threatening situations, almost crushed into meat paste.
With an electric baton in one hand and a Soldier’s Shovel in the other, she fought her way in and out three times.
She leaned against a big tree, gasping for air, bright red blood streaming from her arm.
The Deer King had already noticed something was off, the deer group’s attack became methodical, disciplined, advancing and retreating appropriately.
She almost didn’t escape.
Taking a deep breath to calm the surging blood.
Her harvest in three days was sizeable.
Now 275 Fierce Deer were in her space, all sizes, only eight or nine were dead, the rest lively, frolicking on the grass.
After tonight, the medicine effect should be almost ready.
Medicine packets hanging on branches around, swaying with the cold wind, infusing into the pass, dispersing into the air.
Cheng Xiaoxiao cleaned the bloodstains by the creek, bandaged the wound, and quietly returned to the cave.
Unexpectedly, she met Mo Shang at the entrance.
The faint smell of blood made Mo Shang frown.
"You’re hurt, what did you do these nights?"
He vaguely had a guess, but dared not confirm.
That’s several hundred Fierce Beasts, how could a mere human body possibly resist?
He didn’t know what kind of trick she had up her sleeve.
"So concerned about me, were you waiting here specially for me?"
"No, not at all!" Mo Shang was at a loss.
Three days had passed, he just wanted to know her plan or strategy, how he needed to cooperate.
As for caring words... didn’t he only ask because he smelled blood, guessing she was injured?
Who asked her to say it so openly?
He couldn’t explain.
"Weren’t you here to ask about my progress, you’ve already guessed?" Cheng Xiaoxiao replied casually.
"But..."
"There’s no but, I am the Envoy of Phoenix City, previously concerned about my identity being revealed, couldn’t use many methods, hence hesitant. Otherwise, these Fierce Beasts couldn’t stop me?"
The words carried a sense of calm confidence, her eyes indifferent.
As if the biggest matters were trivial to her.
That’s the right way for an Envoy.
Just when Cheng Xiaoxiao was brimming with confidence, full of style.
Mo Shang responded.
"Then why are you injured?"
Like teasing her, if she’s so capable, how could she get hurt?
Cheng Xiaoxiao was momentarily embarrassed, inwardly ranting if this kid knows how to talk?
With no expression on her face, "Which eye of yours saw me injured? Alright, this Envoy is tired, leave!"
To cover up her guilt, Cheng Xiaoxiao turned her head, waving, gave him a definite answer.
"Tomorrow we can leave." Mo Shang’s words almost stuck in his throat.
What had he done in these three days?
Didn’t they need a deployment plan?
Directly attack, ensuring no pursuit from Fierce Beast groups?
Charging again, would only end in heavy losses.
Could it be... she broke the stalemate?
Impossible!
Three days was too short, he didn’t believe she solved the problem.
But seeing her calm and composed appearance, he silently started to hope.
Never doubt the person you’re relying on, tomorrow the answer will be clear, why worry now?
Let’s see the abilities of Phoenix City’s Envoy!
Then, decisively turned and returned to the cave.
The next day, Cheng Xiaoxiao woke up bright and early.
No one urged her.
No dissatisfaction or complaints.
The team was ready to go, just waiting for her.
It seemed Mo Shang deserved credit.
When they reached the pass area, from afar, half the Fierce Beasts were gone.
"Hey, why is the deer group so quiet?"
"The count is off!"
"Senior Brother, look quickly?"
