Chapter 446: 446
After having accepted their mission, and gotten the bracelets, Xue Wei and his friends all returned to the courtyard .
There was no time limit before they had to leave the military camp . Everyone who joined the army were volunteers, so they were not going to stay in the military camp in order to hide from the ongoing war .
Everyone who was a soldier of the Demon Phoenix Continent could enter the military camp whenever they felt like it, and stay as long as they needed, to recuperate their minds and bodies .
Even though they could stay as long as they wanted, Xue Wei was not willing to wait too long in the military camp . He had come here for a purpose, not to relax .
After spending a week in the military camp, they had gotten all the news and information about the Xiyang Continent's current state .
They had gone as far as the Demon Phoenix Continent with their invasion and had gathered all their experts .
They should expect to face off against the enemy on the sea, and if they survived the dangerous trip, they would be faced with a whole army on the other side of the sea .
The Xiyang Continent was using a few Primordial Beasts, but the majority of the army consisted of humans . Which seemed a bit odd, considering that they knew that they were up against Sovereign Beasts, so using Primordial Beasts seemed useless .
Xue Wei and his friends had spent a week gathering information and were completely prepared for facing off against the other army . Many of the experts who had arrived with them had already left, but Xue Wei wanted as much information as he possibly could get before they set out .
While he was eager to fight, and although he wanted them to fight against overwhelming odds, he was not willing to risk their lives . It would naturally be for the better if they could be prepared beforehand .
Xue Wei and his friends set off on the eight day after arriving at the military camp . The city that had been turned into the main military camp was a harbor city, so they went to the docks and launched their ship into the water, before climbing aboard it .
This ship was different from the other ships, it was grand and had formations and inscriptions all over it, it was the ship that Xue Wei had gotten in the Thunder Twilight Zone, and he could guess that it was the property of a noble person who had lost his life on the island .
The ship was perfect for the war zone, as it had offensive inscriptions that could blast another ship to smithereens, if the right amount of energy was poured into it . It also had formations that would block the attacks of even Saint experts, and the ship itself was much faster than any other ship . It was the perfect vessel to use for traveling towards the Xiyang Continent .
When the other experts at the harbor saw the ship, their eyes glistened with excitement . It was a long time since they last saw such an exquisite ship in their port, and knowing that it belonged to some of their soldiers, they understood that they could not be a common group of experts .
Everyone was born with some sort of curiosity, and when they saw this ship, many gathered at the docks to see who the experts that could command this ship were .
When they saw that it was but a group of newly arrived recruits, many frowned, but the more influential experts were all acting respectful, as they recognized Lan at a glance .
When Lan had first arrived at the military base, many had looked down upon him, but after deciding upon the house he wanted, and beating up the current occupants of the house, no one dared to belittle him again .
The way he beat those experts was still clear in the mind of the higher-ranked soldiers, and most of them dared not say that they could survive the beating .
Xue Wei completely ignored the people who were observing them as he boarded the ship alongside his friends .
These ships were handy because they did not require sailors . All he needed was to add a few thousand high-grade essence stones, and the ship would be able to keep itself afloat and sailing for a long time .
As they boarded the ship, many were eager to ask for a lift . Although a lot of them had taken the task of working behind enemy lines, it was not so easy to get there, as good ships were quite rare in the Demon Phoenix Continent .
While the army did prepare some ships, they only sent two ships over a week, and these two ships were already full to the brim with experts .
Sometimes they even had to wait for the next boat to depart, as there was not enough space on the first, so many tried to hitch a ride when an expert with a ship appeared .
But although they wanted to ask for a lift, no one actually dared to step forward . The higher ranked soldiers were all too alert because of Lan, and the few remaining new soldiers all knew of Xue Wei and his actions of crippling the Fire Horse, so they felt fear from the bottom of their hearts when they saw him .
As a result, Xue Wei and his friends departed the military camp in their ship, setting sail towards the Xiyang Continent .
Their destination was only a few days of travel away, but even so, none of them relaxed . They had heard about the war on the sea, and knew that they had to be very lucky to avoid the enemy .
In a way, they did not want to avoid the enemy either . They could easily outrun any other ship on the sea, but because of their purpose here, they would not do so .
