Saint Moon saw that everyone was silent.
His cold, sharp gaze swept over everyone before finally settling on Long Haoyu.
Seeing Long Haoyu deep in thought, his brows, which had finally relaxed, furrowed again.
"Long Haoyu, leader of the No. 1 Sergeant Demon Hunter Squadron!"
"Does your Rank 1 Demon Hunt Squad have any objections to the Military Department's arrangements?!"
Saint Moon asked again in a deep voice.
Seeing Long Haoyu's current state, he felt uneasy from the bottom of his heart.
In particular, Long Haoyu's insights on many things are indeed quite unique, and it is very necessary to figure out what Long Haoyu is pondering at this moment.
" Knight Errant Returner!"
"Our Rank 1 Demon Hunt Squad has no objection to this decision."
"However, I believe that your decision, Knight Errant, will likely have very limited effect!"
"Based on our previous encounters, I don't think that Demon Commander is the type to give up on us just because many of our exorcism team members haven't left the Demon Extermination Pass!"
Long Haoyu gave a firm and resounding answer.
Since Saint Moon asked this question, he didn't mind telling her what was on his mind.
This also allows the Captain of the other nine Demon Hunt Squad, including Yang Wenzhao, to learn about this matter and make some preparations in advance.
Otherwise...
When his maternal uncle launches his next swift offensive, he will likely suffer a great loss without any preparation.
At best, there will be casualties; at worst, the entire force will be wiped out!
Even within the Demon Extermination Pass, this possibility cannot be ruled out.
"This is a decision we had to make after deliberation among our senior management, and it may not develop as we expected."
"But given what's happening right now, this is the only way we can ensure your safety."
"After all, given your normal growth, you shouldn't encounter so many variables, so we need to control everything as much as possible."
"Of course, if you all manage to get through this crisis without these arrangements, it will be better for your future."
"But this isn't the safest option, so we at the top can only adopt a relatively safe approach!"
Long Haoyu remained silent, listening attentively to Saint Moon's arrangement.
Having already understood Saint Moon's predicament, he naturally wouldn't raise unnecessary questions about such matters.
Although he himself loves fighting and longs for his next battle with A Bao, the growth of his teammates is also a factor he needs to consider.
He is no longer the impetuous teenager he was a few months ago.
Putting teammates in danger for one's own selfish desires is certainly not a desirable course of action.
"Alright, I have finished explaining what needed to be explained!"
"From now on, you can focus on your training within the Demon Extermination Pass!"
"If there are any further notices, I will summon you here again for further arrangements!"
With a wave of his hand, Saint Moon settled the matter and then signaled to Long Haoyu and the others that they could leave.
Unlike when they arrived, the group leaving this time was not moving very fast, and Yang Wenzhao and the others felt particularly heavy-hearted.
Their minds were filled with the things that Saint Moon had just arranged, and their brows were furrowed deeply.
Thinking that he would have to spend the next two months cultivating in the Demon Extermination Pass, but could not actually leave to Demon Extermination Pass Demon Race, he felt uneasy.
Even though fighting on the city walls still allows for some interaction with the Demon Race, the battles on the city walls and the battles outside the Demon Extermination Pass are on completely different levels.
During the previous Military Mission Number One, they clearly felt this, and there was a sense of enjoyment in it.
As Yang Wenzhao pondered, he also noticed Long Haoyu, who was deep in thought as well, " Brother Haoyu, are you also thinking about the arrangements for not being able to leave the Demon Extermination Pass?"
"A little, but there are some other things as well," Long Haoyu replied.
Yang Wenzhao patted Long Haoyu on the shoulder. "It seems we've thought of the same thing. But since the Military Department has made this arrangement, I think I should congratulate your Rank 1 Demon Hunt Squad in advance."
"Before this Military Mission Number One, you Brother Haoyu had already successfully killed Sixth Order Demon Race, and you must have made many merits during the previous interception missions."
"Even though this Military Mission Number One was a failure, you did have a battle with the Demon Commander at the Same Realm, so your merits must be considerable."
"We can't go out anymore, so we probably won't have a chance to overtake you in terms of merit. This time, the first place in the Team Competition will probably belong to your Rank 1 Demon Hunt Squad."
After Yang Wenzhao finished speaking, the Captain of the other Demon Hunt Squad all came forward to offer their congratulations in advance.
Long Haoyu smiled slightly, "Brothers, the future is still uncertain. There are still two months before the Team Competition ends."
"You little rascal, are you teasing us? We can't even get out, what else can we be thinking about?"
Yang Wenzhao made a sarcastic remark to ease the atmosphere before they took their leave.
Long Haoyu did not linger and went straight back to the First Battalion's camp.
A few days later.
In the camp of the First Battalion.
Long Haoyu stood in front of the tent, deep in thought.
Long Haochen followed beside Long Haoyu, sensing the subtle changes in his older brother over the past few days, and his brows furrowed as well.
"Brother, are you worried about what that Demon Commander will do next?" Long Haochen asked.
Long Haoyu hummed in agreement. "I do have some concerns, but no one can predict the future. We just need to do our own thing."
"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it. That's the motto of our Rank 1 Demon Hunt Squad!"
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Long Haoyu had just finished speaking.
Suddenly, a hurried assembly order rang out.
The assembly call was delivered very frequently and in a very tight rhythm, carrying a sense of tension in the voice.
"Brother, it's a rallying order!"
"Understood. Notify Lin Xin and the others to make preparations!"
Long Haoyu made a quick decision and immediately made the arrangements. Long Haochen didn't waste any more words and decisively returned to the camp to wake up Lin Xin and the others who were still cultivating.
Long Haoyu heard the assembly order beside his ear, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"This rallying order seems to be similar to the one I received when my maternal grandfather descended upon the Demon Extermination Pass, and also similar to the one I received when my maternal uncle took office."
"It seems that my uncle really did orchestrate a major operation, and to orchestrate such a major operation in such a short period of time is obviously not just a show of force like at the beginning."
Long Haoyu murmured to himself.
After analyzing the likelihood of this mobilization order, he reopened his eyes, which had been narrowed to slits.
A sharp light suddenly surged in his eyes.
He was certain this would be a major offensive, and he had no intention of remaining silent.
The eldest uncle orchestrated this major operation.
It's obvious that he'll be waiting for this battle!
How could a nephew possibly disappoint his uncle in something like this?!
