Chapter 253 Why Are World Tree And Primordial Elf Female? The Reason Turns Out To Be This!
"Remember, always act with caution."
Before leaving, Captain Derek reminded once again.
"Understood, sir!"
Chen Yu replied with a serious expression.
After leaving the main tent of the central army, Chen Yu returned to his own camp.
In the newly built camp, Sophia was working on ideological education for the soldiers.
Among the ten sentences, five of them would quote Chen Yu's "quotations" to explain some profound truths.
Of course, Chen Yu didn't think he had said those words.
"The captain is back!"
"Look, it's Captain Chen Yu!"
"He's the captain who single-handedly fought and annihilated a marauder camp, even though he was seriously injured!"
"..."
The soldiers looked at Chen Yu with fanatical eyes.
"You all train well." Chen Yu smiled and nodded at the soldiers.
Then he summoned a thorn spirit and took Sophia away.
"The captain has taken Captain Sophia away, where are they going?"
"I think the captain and Captain Sophia have a good relationship, maybe..." a female soldier started to ship them.
"You better stop." A soldier next to her sneered, "The captain and Captain Sophia are going to the erosion zone for a special mission."
"I envy Captain Sophia, being able to go on a mission with the captain."
"Yeah, Captain Sophia is so lucky. Actually, I'm familiar with the nearby terrain too."
"..."
The soldiers who stayed behind looked enviously at Chen Yu and Sophia's departing figures.
They wished they could join the battle themselves, follow Chen Yu into the erosion zone, and kill the fallen ones in groups.
...
"How does it feel to be the captain?"
Chen Yu teased.
These past few days, he hadn't given any orders to his soldiers.
Since the establishment of his warrior camp, Sophia had been in charge of everything.
It was true to say that Sophia was the true captain.
"I'm just conveying your orders on your behalf."
Sophia's forehead was covered in a cold sweat as she nervously spoke.
"Don't be afraid." Chen Yu said calmly, "You should be able to see that I have my own goals."
"As long as your goals don't contradict mine, there's no problem with whatever you want."
Previously, Chen Yu had only thought of Sophia as a naive noblewoman from the countryside.
But he realized he had underestimated her.
Although she performed poorly on the battlefield, she was a cunning and capable person.
Just like his attitude towards the little Saintess, Chen Yu didn't care about her hidden motives.
As long as she didn't interfere with his mission, everything was okay.
Having such a person around could save him a lot of effort.
Sophia was a person with ambitions and self-awareness.
When brainwashing her soldiers, she deliberately downplayed herself and emphasized Chen Yu's presence, which was evident.
"Yes, Captain." Sophia said seriously, "Please rest assured, I can swear that I will never betray you."
Interesting.
A slight smile appeared at the corner of Chen Yu's mouth.
When Sophia spoke, there was an obvious emotional fluctuation.
With his spiritual power reaching thirty thousand, Chen Yu naturally sensed this unusual information keenly.
She didn't lie to Chen Yu, but it seemed like there was more to her words.
However, Chen Yu had no intention of probing further.
After a moment of silence, Sophia spoke again.
She seemed to have made a decision, with a hint of anticipation in her expression.
"Commander, if I may be so bold, may I ask you a personal question?"
"Go ahead," Chen Yu replied.
"Do you... have a wife?" Sophia asked.
"Yes," Chen Yu answered.
"Then would you mind having an additional lover? She wouldn't cause any trouble in your life."
After a moment, Sophia asked.
"I don't mind," Chen Yu said, "but there aren't many women who interest me."
So far, besides his own backyard, he had only encountered one woman who somewhat met his expectations.
"Your wife must be an outstanding woman," Sophia praised.
"Well, I suppose," Chen Yu said uncertainly.
After all, it wouldn't be accurate to say that the World Tree was a woman.
Strictly speaking, the World Tree had no gender.
Because in Chen Yu's inherent understanding, he was male, with physiological needs and a preference for women, so the image of the World Tree and the Primordial Elf appeared as female.
Their true nature had nothing to do with traditional biological beings.
Chen Yu understood Sophia's intentions.
She hoped to gain Chen Yu's trust in a different way.
But Chen Yu didn't have that kind of mindset.
If it were a woman from the Blue Star world, like some senior sisters or teachers.
If they cooked well and came to him, he might consider it.
But Sophia was from the mission world, unable to leave, with too many uncertainties, unable to satisfy his possessiveness.
So even if she offered herself openly, Chen Yu wasn't prepared to accept.
After Chen Yu politely declined, Sophia didn't bring up the matter again.
On the way, they remained silent except for providing directions.
In less than half an hour, the Heart Thorn Demon Spirit brought Chen Yu and Sophia to the location circled on the map.
There was only a small circle on the map, but in the real world, it covered an area of hundreds of square kilometers.
The Heart Thorn was different from ordinary plant life.
If it was too far from Chen Yu, it would automatically retract and couldn't be sent out for reconnaissance alone.
However, Chen Yu had other ways.
In Sophia's terrified expression, a huge vine shot up from the ground, lifting Chen Yu and Sophia high into the air.
There were no large mountain ranges blocking this area.
From a kilometer above, Chen Yu could see a large area at a glance.
Next to a forest, he spotted an abandoned small town with many fallen beings coming and going.
Most of the fallen beings were wearing standard equipment.
This dilapidated little town should be the base of the Fallen Vanguard mentioned by General Derek.
At this moment, several demons soared into the sky from the small town, flying towards Chen Yu's direction.
"Epics demons! Real demons! We've been discovered!"
Sophia's face turned pale.
"Just a few small fries, what are you afraid of?" Chen Yu realized that he couldn't quite understand Sophia.
Her behavior in the face of the enemy was completely different from her usual scheming and strategizing.
"Commander, those are real demons!" Sophia trembled all over, but still suppressed her fear, drew her long sword from her waist, and aimed it shakily at the demons.
The demons didn't attack, but looked at Chen Yu with caution.
"Are you a fallen being or a demon? What brings you here?" the leading demon boss asked cautiously.
The fallen beings couldn't tell, but the demon boss could sense it.
The total amount of Abyss magic power that Chen Yu possessed was not lower than theirs, and the quality was extremely high.
That was one thing, but the key was that this massive vine-like object contained several times more Abyss magic power than them.
A plant life without any Abyss characteristics, with a total amount of Abyss magic power surpassing that of an Epic Rank Four demon?
This was unbelievable!
