Chapter 2246: The Incomplete Blood Dragon Squad (Subscribe Please)_1

Zhang Huanyun saw his meaning and sighed, "There's no need to comfort me. There will be sacrifices when confronting the Holy Spirit Cult; we just didn't expect them to send the Darkness Phoenix to attack the Blood Dragon Squad!"

If not mistaken, their initial target must have been the captain of the Blood Dragon Squad, Tang Wulin!

Fortunately, he wasn't traveling with the Blood Dragon Squad!

Blood One pursed his lips, "We had no other option—the Blood Dragon Squad was facing a level 98, or perhaps even a level 99 powerhouse. The fact that there are survivors is already very fortunate!"

He had expected the Blood Dragon Squad might be completely annihilated!

But it seemed that Aruheng of the Body Sect had used a secret technique to buy some time, otherwise, they wouldn't have waited for their support!

How could Zhang Huanyun not understand this principle? His expression returned to normal...

"Since it has already happened, there's no use in avoiding it. Let's go back to the Blood God Army!"

...

However, upon returning to the Blood God Army, Tang Wulin and the others noticed something amiss...

Xie Xie glanced around and frowned, "Wulin, do you also feel that something is off? Why do the soldiers of the Blood God Army all look so gloomy?"

Yuanen Yehui also affirmatively added, "Yeah, all the way here, almost everyone has shown a look of mourning. Could something have happened while we were away?"

Yue Zhengyu shrugged his shoulders, "That's simple, why not just ask and find out?"

In his view, it probably wasn't anything major like an attack from evil Soul Masters; otherwise, the Blood God Army wouldn't be this calm!

Tang Wulin nodded and then approached one of the soldiers...

But before he could ask, the latter saluted and said, "Major General Tang Wulin, and all the other officers, the Corps Commander is already waiting in the conference room and has very important matters to inform you of!"

Tang Wulin queried with confusion, "Oh? Did the Corps Commander say what it's about?"

The soldier hesitated for a moment and replied, "This... I think it's best for all the officers to go to the conference room and let the Corps Commander explain."

Seeing that the former didn't seem willing to explain, Tang Wulin didn't press further and casually "Hmm"ed...

"Let's go, everyone. First to the conference room; it seems the Corps Commander has something to say!"

...

The conference room!

Zhang Huanyun looked at one of the colonels, "What's the current status of the Blood Dragon Squad?"

After returning to the Blood God Army, he had sent the survivors, including Jiang Qiyue, to the medical troop!

The colonel replied, "Reporting to the Corps Commander, except for Colonels Ma Shan, Aruheng, and Jiang Wuyue who have been martyred, the rest of the members are still unconscious. However, their vital signs are stable, and there is no serious concern!"

"Nevertheless, Colonel Ling Wuyue has lost her right hand and won't be able to pilot a mecha anymore!"

After uttering these words, he sighed helplessly...

Ling Wuyue was an ace mecha master; losing her right hand and not being able to pilot a mecha anymore was a massive blow to her!

The other officers also showed expressions of regret...

"Indeed, Colonel Ling Wuyue is one of the few ace mecha masters of the Blood God Army, what a pity!"

"This damn Holy Spirit Cult, they actually didn't hesitate to send a powerhouse like the Darkness Phoenix to perform the assassination; it's utterly despicable and shameless."

"After such an incident, we must strengthen our defenses to prevent this from happening again!!"

Zhang Huanyun nodded slightly, "Yes, what you all say makes sense..."

But before he could continue, a voice came from outside...

"Corps Commander, this is Tang Wulin. May I come in now?"

Zhang Huanyun stopped speaking and said, "Wulin? Come in."

As his words ended, Tang Wulin entered the conference room...

His gaze turned to Zhang Huanyun sitting at the main seat, and he said seriously, "Legion Commander, I heard from a soldier that you have something to tell me!"

Zhang Huanyun also became a bit more solemn, "That is correct, not just you, all the officers present are already aware!"

A bad premonition rose in Tang Wulin's heart, "What exactly is it?"

Since joining the Blood God Army, he had not seen any members of the Blood Dragon Squad!

Zhang Huanyun replied gravely, "Right when you went out to investigate, the Blood Dragon Squad was ambushed by the Darkness Phoenix of the Holy Spirit Cult!"

Tang Wulin felt as if he had been struck by a heavy blow, and he asked anxiously, "What? How are Big Brother Ru Heng and the others?"

Zhang Huanyun sighed, "I'm sorry, Wulin, by the time we got there, it was already too late!"

Tang Wulin suppressed the emotions in his heart and tried to keep calm, "Legion Commander, please give me more details."

But if one observed closely, they would notice his fists clenched so tightly that they "cracked."

The other man nodded, "Jiang Wuyue, Aruheng, and Ma Shan, all three colonels, have been sacrificed, and the rest of the members have also suffered injuries to varying degrees."

"They were warriors of the Blood God Army!"

Upon hearing these words, Tang Wulin's expression instantly became vacant, and he couldn't help but step back a few steps...

Zhang Huanyun stood up, concerned, "Wulin, you..."

Tang Wulin responded with a cold tone, "Sorry, Legion Commander, I need to be alone right now."

With those words, he turned to leave...

Seeing that he was about to leave, Zhang Huanyun reminded him, "Colonel Jiang Qiyue and the others are in the medical unit!"

Tang Wulin paused, but left without a word...

...

The Shrek Seven Monsters waiting outside saw Tang Wulin come out, and immediately wanted to approach him...

But they were stopped by Yuanen Yehui...

She said with an unpleasant expression, "Don't go over there, Wulin is in a really bad mood, and also, I just found out from another soldier's mouth that the Blood Dragon Squad encountered the Darkness Phoenix, one of the Four Great Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult!"

"The Blood Dragon Squad suffered heavy losses!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately felt a twinge of heartache...

Xu Xiaoyan pursed her thin lips and pondered, "…Now that I think about it, it seems like we were also attacked!"

Yue Zhengyu nodded, "Mm, it seems the Holy Spirit Cult made preparations on both fronts!"

Ye Xinglan narrowed her eyes, "But what would be the purpose of doing this? Just to severely damage the Blood Dragon Squad? I don't believe that's all the Holy Spirit Cult would do!"

Xie Xie sneered, "Do we even have to think about it? It's definitely because of Wulin! His identity is enough to attract the attention of the Holy Spirit Cult!"

"Moreover, whether Wulin was with us or with the Blood Dragon Squad, he would have been targeted!"

Xu Lizhi gasped, "Hiss… Now that Xie Xie mentions it, it does seem like that! The Holy Spirit Cult is indeed treacherous!"

Yuanen Yehui interrupted the discussion, "No matter what, we should not disturb Wulin today, he needs some quiet!"

Turbid World nodded slightly, "Hmm, then I will go discuss with the other two Elders of the Sea God Pavilion. You should also be careful!"

Everyone responded respectfully, "Yes, Elder Turbid World!"
