Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 756: Section 751 - After the Yellow Sparrow

Because the parasitic species "Taga" unexpectedly caused chaos and subsequent developments, Chen Fei and Bartona, the Commander of the Southern War Zone, were temporarily not in opposition to each other. However, they were still not friends but merely temporary allies using each other in a relationship that could betray one another without a second thought.

Everyone acts for their own benefit, whether coming or going.

If Chen Fei didn't have enough personal strength to make the other party value him, they wouldn't be able to reach a deal. Chen Fei might have already been dead; killing Chen Xiao'er would be as easy as killing a little chicken.

Bartona, who raised a rebellion, was no saint, and neither was the outcast "Taga" from the "Sagali" clan. Humans can befriend lambs and pigs, but does that mean they stop eating lamb and pork? They probably enjoy it even more! (A group of Dongying elementary students raising pigs... that's really just being sentimental. It's quite common in Huaxia Village. Pigs are so cute; of course, they should be braised! ￣▽￣!)

Going into enemy territory alone is something you'd only see in traditional operas. In reality, there are no fools ready to laugh along with you. Dying eight hundred times would still not be considered enough.

From the moment he stepped into the Rock Palace until he walked out unscathed, Chen Xiao'er had been sweating bullets. Sometimes he acted recklessly, but he wasn't really stupid; lacking intelligence wouldn't get him through college.

He teased the little bird on his shoulder.

"Let's go! Let's head back!"

Xiao Jiu turned its head and chirped toward the Rock Palace.

A group of little brothers were still on standby on the roof, causing the rebels to feel extremely anxious.

Instantly, a "Black Cloud" rose to the sky, thousands of Pure Light Sparrows flying in all directions, dispersing entirely, making everyone in the camp simultaneously breathe a sigh of relief.

Even though roasted bird skewers were only one Star Yuan each at the market, no one dared to consider these live Pure Light Sparrows harmless when gathered in large numbers.

Just as Chen Fei was about to leave with Xiao Jiu from the large camp at the Southern War Zone Headquarters, a burst of noise suddenly erupted nearby. Then there was continuous flickering of spell light, roaring explosions, and various screams and howls, immediately stirring up a commotion.

The Psi Skill "Basic Optical Observer" activated automatically, starting to load various vision modules, "Macroscopic Perspective" combined with "Visual Assistance," and an artificial intelligence AI "Adam" was interfaced to augment the given AR mode in the visual nerve, using a skyward view to identify the source of the chaos immediately.

Wouldn't have known if I hadn't seen it... Hey, what a coincidence!

It turns out to be Chen Fei's fault, bringing in those mercenaries now causing havoc inside the military camp of the Southern War Zone Headquarters. Once the officers there reacted, those mercenaries couldn't hop around anymore.

The mercenaries knew this, so while creating chaos, they desperately rushed toward the outside of the camp, even managing to steal a vehicle.

But not being familiar with the military camp, they ran around like headless flies, creating a lot of chaos but unable to find the right way out.

A few open-top military jeeps scrambled around and rushed past Chen Fei.

But the leading military jeep, without any warning, spun a beautiful 180 degrees, both front and rear wheels powering up, kicking up a lot of sand and soil, returned in front of Chen Fei, and slammed to a stop.

The mercenary at the driver's seat shouted toward Chen Fei.

"Hey! Get in!"

Thinking Chen Fei, like them, was also taking the opportunity to escape, and those who could break out must have some skills. An extra person could add more strength, and grouping together would give them a better chance to break out.

The other few military jeeps were somewhat caught off guard, clumsily turning and gathering together.

"Baron, why call him? Let's go!"

A young woman's voice came from the backseat of the jeep, the formidable Lulisa glaring at Chen Fei — thanks to this detestable guy, the "Yellow Sparrow" squad was brought to the Tessa Empire Restoration Army Southern War Zone Headquarters.

"You still think you can run?"

Suddenly, a shadow swept across the sky, and a loud voice followed as a figure descended from the heavens, crashing down.

"Gaga gaga!~"

A fully armed Flying Dragon circled above the camp.

Apart from the Giant Dragon, the Bipedal Flying Dragon is one of the most famous original aerial knights; once Assembled Combat Aircraft became the trend, Magical Beast mountings quickly left the stage, only seen in remote areas where transportation was inconvenient. Nowadays, those who continue to rear dragons are mostly for hobbies or nostalgic sentiment.

But these Flying Species Magical Beasts retired, and it took a long time to adapt to a new lifestyle.

Shh!~A blazing Sword Qi erupted more than three feet, blocking several military jeeps stolen by the mercenaries.

With a single move, the prowess was at least of an Earth Order Sword God.

"It's all your fault, Baron, we're done for!" freēnovelkiss.com

Trapped directly by an Earth Order War Professional, the mercenaries immediately fell into despair.

Just one like him could effortlessly kill all the mercenaries like little chicks, with no chance of escape.

Chen Fei, seemingly oblivious to the Fire System War Professional, came to his side, standing shoulder to shoulder and calmly said, "Alright, you all get off and line up!"

"I will haunt you even as a ghost!"

The mercenary woman Lulisa furiously cursed.

"We're done for, totally done for!"

"If we hadn't turned around earlier, we might have broken out."

"Baron, you've really screwed us over!"

The mercenaries in the vehicle were silently cursing their luck as the Southern War Zone Headquarters had sent experts and they had already missed the best chance to break out.

"Everyone out, line up, are you deaf?"

A bellow from the Fire System Sword God thundered like an explosion next to everyone's ears, leaving them all dazed.

Just this battle-filled roar alone was enough to rob the mercenaries of their will to fight.

After all, the rank difference was simply too great; the highest among them was just a Seventh Rank Earth Mage. If they had the power of higher ranks, who would choose to be mercenaries? Wouldn't it be more lucrative to work as bodyguards or doormen for some rich tycoon?

Baron: "..."

The tomboyish Lulisa: "..."

The mercenaries were collectively baffled. What did this all mean?

Their eyes shifted back and forth between Chen Fei and the Fire System Sword God. Damn it, the two were actually in cahoots!

The mercenaries felt like dying. Even Baron, the leader who had kindly turned the vehicle around to bring Chen Fei along in their escape attempt, began to regret his decision, realizing he had misjudged the person.

Facing the intimidation of the powerful, they had no choice but to obediently get out of the car, standing in a line trembling, their hearts like fifteen buckets fetching water — constantly fluctuating up and down.

"Hand them over to me. There's no problem with that, right?"

Chen Fei still didn't look at the War Professional next to him, as if talking to himself.

"Hmph!"

The surging Sword Qi instantly quieted down silently, and the Fire System Sword God sheathed his sword and didn't bother with Chen Fei or the mercenaries anymore, striding off.

Thanks to the communication methods passed down from the Blue Star Civilization, the temporary collaboration Chen Fei had with Bartona, the Southern War Zone Commander of the Parasitic Species "Taga," had been communicated to every combat unit. Naturally, no one would trouble Chen Fei, and some might even give him some face.

"Huh?"

Baron, leader of the "Yellow Sparrow" mercenary team, was stunned, his understanding overturned once again.

What was the background of this young man who had been caught by the Southern War Zone Headquarters? Could it have been a misunderstanding before?

The courageous tomboyish Lulisa was instantly revived on the spot and shouted at Chen Fei, "Hey, which side are you on, buddy?"

Her judgment was indeed lacking; she was simply impulsive. If it weren't for the leader Baron who had good insight, this type of rash person would have probably died many times over already.

"Me? I'm the client!"

Chen Fei pointed to himself and chuckled.

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; beneath the tree, there's a child ready with a slingshot.

The others wanted to rope him in, but now who was the prey was up for debate.

"Client? What do you mean?"

Baron frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly caught on, blurting out, "You want to hire us?"

"Exactly! That's right!"

Chen Fei snapped his fingers loudly.

He wasn't a rich man who could casually employ professional mercenaries, but someone else was picking up the bill for his expenses.

Previously, in Sun Domain City at the "Holy Blood Guild," when buying information about the commander of the Southern War Zone, the big shot Louis Landon didn't hesitate to pay fifteen million Star Yuan, and hiring a mercenary squad wouldn't be a problem either.

Compared to the three squads prepared for Nandu City, this mercenary squad's expense could be described as cheap.

Finally understanding the situation, Lulisa, as one of the only three female members in the mercenary squad, sneered repeatedly.

"We're not cheap, you know!"

Chen Fei said offhandedly, "Fifty thousand Star Yuan per day, including food, lodging, and ammunition consumption."

For his upcoming plans, he needed manpower and didn't want to look around; these mercenaries dared to cause trouble in the camp of the Southern War Zone Headquarters. If nothing else, they had the courage necessary.

The mercenaries on the scene froze for a moment. The pay wasn't bad, especially since it covered food, lodging, and weapon and ammunition expenses; it was pure profit.

Although the mercenary business in the southern region of the Zilu Continent was booming, it was also fiercely competitive. Most mercenaries could only scrape by, just earning enough to survive.

To eat meat heartily, drink heavily, and divide gold generously, earning a hefty sum was still rare, only achievable by teams that were both well-known and strong.

"Deal!"

The leader of the "Yellow Sparrow" mercenary squad, Baron, agreed without hesitation.
