Outside of Time - Chapter 1264

Chapter 1242 Corpse Touching Team
Wars, on the left front, are becoming more frequent.
At every moment, in different locations, there are explosions, like flashing sparks.
Although the scale is not very large, with most of them involving about a thousand people, their scope has shown a trend of spreading.
And war is a whole, it serves a purpose.
So whether it is a large-scale battle or a small-scale dispute on the left front, it all has its purpose.
If most of these goals are achieved one by one, they will form the final trend and achieve the ultimate goal.
This is the essence and also the game.
Just as Xu Qing and others guessed after gathering all the information: the layout of the middle left wing is completed.
So, while the layout of the left-center war zone was completed, small-scale battles between gods and monks appeared more and more frequently on the front line. The purpose behind this… was actually very clear.
Whether it was the gods or the monks, they were all using these frequent small-scale battles as a cover!
For example, at this moment, among the many sparks of war between the fourth and fifth star rings, one of them was an area filled with meteorites.
There was a bloody battle going on between the two sides.
From afar, the place was filled with roars and echoes, collapse and fragmentation, and the aura of the alien and the immortal spirits, impacting it at all times.
One side wants to invade.
One side is blocking.
Extremely intense.
And on the periphery, on the large number of scattered meteorites, there was a group of people staring at the battlefield in the distance.
They were mostly dressed in gray and black, and there were nearly a hundred of them. Each of them was like a vulture, with sharp eyes, paying attention to all directions and paying special attention to the situation on the battlefield, as if they were ready to retreat if things went wrong.
There was also an old man inside, who was speaking in a low voice to the cultivator next to him.
“I’m right, right? The battle ahead can’t end so quickly. According to my estimation, it will take at least another half an hour.”
“If I hadn’t seen you a few months ago, knew your origins, and sensed your token before, I wouldn’t have called you over after you arrived.”
As the old man spoke, he glanced at the dozen or so people in front of him, feeling the evil spirit from these people. He was also frightened, especially when his eyes fell on the leader of these people, the feeling of evil spirit was even stronger.
“Speaking of which, you are quite famous now, and you were able to cross the Central War Zone and come to the front line. However, since you have chosen to join the Collection Army, there are some things you need to understand.”
These dozen people are naturally Xu Qing and his group.
After they volunteered to do so, they arrived here two hours ago according to the mission arrangement. However, before they could get close to the battlefield, they were stopped by the old man guarding the periphery.
They also recognized each other’s identities and realized that they were all corpse-seeking team.
The old man also recognized the origins of Xu Qing and the others, so he showed goodwill and invited them to join him.
Listening to the old man’s words at this moment, Xu Qing, Xing Huanzi and others looked at each other, clasped their fists to the old man, and humbly asked for his advice.
The old man nodded slightly and continued speaking.
“Although our name is collection, since you have chosen to join, I think you have some understanding. To put it nicely, we are cleaning up the battlefield. To put it bluntly, we are actually searching for corpses!”
“As for clearing the battlefield, we naturally have to wait until the battle is over before we can go there.”
“Otherwise, it wouldn’t be touching a corpse, it would be joining the war.”
“You have to remember that fighting is something that those military cultivators are going to do. We won’t easily get involved. What we have to do is go in after they’ve finished fighting!”
“Because… our joining may affect the formation of our army. At the same time, we also have a mission, which is to leave a retreat route for the army in the front after they are defeated!”
When the old man said this, his expression became much more solemn.
Upon hearing this, Xu Qing and the others nodded slightly, their expressions solemn.
In fact, they had no intention of actually entering the battlefield, they just wanted to get closer so that they could collect the source material as soon as possible.
After all, they think they are good at collecting source materials.
Since becoming a member of the Resource Collection Department, he has done this kind of thing a lot. Not only did he complete the collection tasks, but each of them also secretly intercepted a lot.
However, in the past, the samples were collected from living beings. This is the first time that the samples were collected from the corpses of gods.
Seeing that Xu Qing and others had taken his words to heart, the solemnity on the old man’s face disappeared and he coughed.
“Just listen to what I said above. In fact, we don’t need to guard the retreat route, and entering the battlefield is unlikely to affect the military formation.
These words are for outsiders, and what follows is for us to know. Remember, you must not leave too early, because if you leave too early, life or death is unpredictable. “
“It’s safer to wait until the battle is over. In addition, the outcome of a war is unpredictable, so we must also be prepared to evacuate quickly if the group of military cultivators is defeated.”
“You guys are still too young. If I hadn’t stopped you just now, if you had gotten too close, who knows how many of you would have died by now.”
“There is one more thing you should know, that is, don’t get into conflicts with the military cultivators…”
Before the old man finished speaking, Xu Qing’s expression suddenly changed, and he and Xing Huanzi and others looked up at the battlefield in the distance. The old man also paused and turned his head suddenly.
On the battlefield in the distance, the aura of immortal spirits suddenly increased, and cheers spread in all directions.
A Taoist flag can be vaguely seen standing there.
“Victory!”
The old man’s eyes lit up, and without bothering to explain the rules to Xu Qing and the others, he shook his body violently and shouted to all around.
“Everyone, start working!”
As the voice echoed, the old man rushed forward, and the teams under his command also flew out, licking their lips, spreading their wings like vultures, roaring forward and galloping at full speed.
Xu Qing and others also took a step forward immediately and moved forward together.
Just like that, in a short period of time, everyone rushed into the center of the meteorite like sharp blades and saw the battlefield up close.
In this vast area, corpses of gods were everywhere, blood of gods was everywhere, broken limbs and arms, and shattered magic weapons could be seen everywhere.
There were also many corpses of monks.
The army of monks had left, but some military monks were left behind to clean up the battlefield and collect essence.
The old man and his men seemed to be accustomed to this. They didn’t even look at it and went straight to the corpses that no one had collected yet.
Some cut, some collect, some store…
They cooperate with each other perfectly and at an amazing speed.
Extremely skilled.
In just over ten breaths, a lot of cleaning had been done, and everywhere was spotless.
The spirit inside was taken away, and as for the corpse, it was placed there without any desecration.
When Xu Qing and his companions saw this, their pupils shrank, especially Zhou Zhengli and others, who were even more solemn.
It was really that the old man and his subordinates were more skilled than them in collecting things!
Especially their speed, which was amazingly fast.
“This group of people are good at corpse mining, which is different from us!”
Xu Qing and others looked at each other, and immediately rushed into the battlefield and started collecting.
But it must be said that even though they came from the Resource Collection Bureau, compared with that old man, their collection speed was much slower and not as clean.
In addition, corpse collection, because the gods have died, the source materials left behind are not active, and the quantity is also much different from when they were alive, so often after all the hard work of collecting, the quality of the source obtained is still a drop in the bucket.
But fortunately there are many corpses.
Therefore, if you want to get enough, you have to deal with more corpses of gods.
The corpse-collecting team seemed to have its own rules. Once the corpse of a god was collected, no one else would compete for it, even if it was still in the process.
Xu Qing and others soon discovered this and began to abide by this rule.
But there are still robbers.
It was not the monks who touched the corpses, but the military monks who were left here.
They are often very domineering. Regardless of whether the corpses have been collected or not, they will come in a rude manner, with some disgust and helplessness on their faces.
This is understandable, after all, it was their legion that killed them…
But all the material of the war, including the spoils, were coordinated, so they had nothing to say about it.
However, in order to take people’s emotions into consideration, after the war, although the main army of each legion withdrew, some people would be left behind to collect.
These were also tacitly accepted.
The corpse-collecting team led by the old man has obviously been accustomed to this. They will give up as soon as they encounter it and rely on the speed of collection to look for the next target.
However, since Xu Qing and his group were touching a corpse for the first time, they were obviously not as fast as the others, so they became the main target of the military cultivators.
Just like that, after several hours, the originally large battlefield area had become almost unrecognizable.
All the bodies of the monks were placed in a very good place.
He was taken away by the military repairmen to whom he belonged.
As for the collection of the corpses of the gods, the corpse-searching team led by the old man took nearly 60% of them.
I took 30% from the military repairmen.
The last ten percent… was obtained by Xu Qing and his group.
So after the cleanup was completed and the military repairmen left, Xu Qing and the others were more or less hesitant in their hearts.
Seeing this, the old man, who had reaped a lot of rewards, came over with a smile.
“Everyone, are you a little helpless? Are you a little angry about being robbed? You have to get used to it. After all, they killed you, so it’s normal for them to take you away.”
“It will be fine once you practice more on the acquisition speed.”
After saying that, the old man said goodbye, turned around and waved his hand, and left the battlefield area with his corpse-searching team.
Even after everyone had left, Xu Qing and the others continued to ponder in the center of the meteorite.
The old man’s judgment was obviously wrong.
Xu Qing and the others were silent, not because of helplessness, nor because of anger.
After all, the gods here were killed by those military cultivators, so it is only natural for them to take them away. Even if you put yourself in their shoes, if someone else comes to collect the gods they killed, they will not agree.
So, what they pondered was…
“We are not as fast as the corpse-seeking team, and there is no reason for us to fight with the military repairmen for it…”
“So since the corpse-sniffing team only goes in after the war is over.”
“If we enter the battlefield ahead of time…”
Xu Qing and the others looked up and looked at each other while they were thinking.
They both saw the strange light in each other’s eyes.
