At the center of the camp, the flag of the Third Battalion flutters beside the temporarily built command platform, its tattered red background with gold patterns rustling in the wind from the Demon Abyss.
Qin Tian stood quietly under the flag, his black combat suit’s edges lifted by the fierce wind, his eyes glowing with deep purple light like a pool, and his spiritual power forming an invisible network, capturing every movent within tens of kiloters.
Whether it was the earthen yellow spiritual energy in Lu Sheng’s saber light, Terreda’s barbarian-led unstoppable charge, or the sharp tear of air by the demon claws, all flowed clearly within his perception.
At this mont, he seed like a celestial eye suspended above the battlefield, overlooking this blood-fire intertwined chessboard.
"Company One, be advised, there are 57 horned demons approaching from the northwest," Qin Tian’s voice transmitted through the spiritual link into the minds of Lu Sheng and the Poisonous Widow, calm yet carrying undeniable authority, "Scarlett, set up the traps at the mountain pass, they are about to arrive."
"Roger that!"
Lu Sheng and Scarlett responded in unison.
Imdiately, Qin Tian’s gaze shifted slightly, locking onto the platoon in the northeast direction:
"Company Four, support Company Two at once. Xiong, Shen Juan is facing two Tier Five demons over there, they’re quite tricky, leave them to you."
"Got it!"
Xiong responded in a rumbling voice, accompanied by the heavy thunder of accelerating footsteps.
"Terreda, there’s a wave of demons from both the west and south sides charging at you, each totaling over a hundred," Qin Tian’s finger moved slightly, his tone steady,
"Handle the ones to the south first, they’re not a match for you."
"Understood!"
Terreda’s voice carried a tallic scraping texture, the crisp sound of his Zhanshou saber slicing through demon bones faintly audible.
Qin Tian stood in place, his eyes flowing with purple light, as if truly playing a command ga.
He could clearly "see" the positions and states of every platoon, could predict the demons’ movent trajectories, and could further rewrite the local battles at any mont through the ability of the Void Gate.
When any platoon was at a nurical disadvantage, a silver gate would suddenly appear at the flank, delivering reinforcing warriors; when demons attempted to encircle, the gate would open behind the enemy, allowing the Barbarian Battle Group to descend like divine soldiers and disrupt their formations.
Earlier, when Terreda was caught in a triple demon assault, it was Qin Tian who activated the Void Gate, permitting Xiong’s barbarian warriors to bypass the enemy rear and complete a brilliant counter-encirclent.
The horned demons that Lu Sheng was about to face had long been calculated into their path by him, just waiting for them to step into the valley’s trap.
At the camp center, Qin Tian suddenly curled his lips into a smile.
This feeling of overlooking the overall situation and holding life and death in his hands was completely different from his previous solo battles, as if the whole battlefield had beco a sandbox in his palm, every command issued could trigger the ripple of chain reactions.
"This is the charm of command~"
Of course, compared with those commanders who direct massive land or spacecraft wars, his command is rely child’s play, not worthy of being shown, but still, this is a pretty good start.
Perhaps in the future, he could create a whole new command style using his many abilities?
......
Half an hour later, silver ripples erged successively in the air at the camp entrance.
The first to return was the Third Company led by Terreda, the barbarian warriors stepping heavily into the camp, the blood on their black armor thick enough to drip, so still hung with pieces of demon flesh and bone, resembling Asura retrieved from the blood pool.
Yet the battle spirit burning in their eyes was stronger than the blood glow on their armor, many were excitedly conversing in Barbarian language, gesturing fully about the monts they severed demon heads.
Next, Lu Sheng and the Poisonous Widow appeared with the First Company warriors, Lu Sheng’s great saber still entwined with strands of dark green demon tendons, he laughed heartily, his voice loud enough to shake dust from the tent: "Refreshing! That’s what I call a fight!"
Company Two and Four arrived almost simultaneously, Shen Juan’s arm bleeding, clearly injured while dealing with the Tier Five demons, but his face carried a relaxed expression.
Xiong ca last, dragging the giant axe along the ground leaving a long blood trail, the blood in his eyes slowly faded, he gave Qin Tian a grin, evidently satisfied with the slaughter.
The whole camp was instantly enveloped by a strong blood scent, yet curiously there was not a hint of oppression.
The warriors gathered in small groups, so cleaned their weapons, others treated wounds, the topic revolving most around Qin Tian’s god-like command and the Void Gate.
"You guys didn’t see it! Just now those two Tier Five demons were about to break through the line, Camp Commander Qin opened a light gate and sent Captain Xiong over, and with one axe split the demon’s head in half!"
"On my side, it was quite sothing! Surrounded by over a hundred demons in the mountain pass, thinking of fighting desperately, the light gate opened right behind us, and Captain Terreda ca out with his n, attacking from both sides. That was thrilling!"
"Never fought such an easy battle before! Wherever the demons are, how many there are, and when they’ll co, Camp Commander Qin knows it all! We just follow behind, picking heads like we have cheat codes!"
Lu Sheng walked up to Qin Tian, vigorously wiping the blood off his face, speaking excitedly, "Camp Commander Qin, this battle was damn amazing! The brothers all say that following you, even breaking through the Third Floor of the Demon Abyss isn’t scary!"
"That’s exaggerating, the Three Layers of the Demon Abyss, I wouldn’t dare enter." Qin Tian laughed.
The Third Floor of the Demon Abyss is the most dangerous place in the Demon Suppression Abyss, truly a death zone.
Commanders of several battle zones, top experts from major bloodline families including the Dongfang Family, are suppressing demons in the Three Layers of the Demon Abyss, where Tier Five demons are just foot soldiers, and Tier Six demons abound, even Tier Seven, Tier Eight, and Tier Nine demons are commonly seen.
With his current strength, going to the Third Floor of the Demon Abyss is almost like looking for death.
"Anyway, following the commander, we fear no place however dangerous." Lu Sheng said, chest straightened.
Shen Juan walked to Qin Tian’s side, watching the warriors excitedly chatting, and sighed in a low voice, "Camp Commander Qin, you don’t know how long the brothers haven’t fought such a victorious battle... let alone so easily."
Qin Tian looked at the distant, gradually sinking dark purple sky, with a gentle smile, "This is just the beginning."
He knows that the warriors’ excitent at the mont is not just because of winning the battle, but because they saw hope—in this desperate Demon Suppression Abyss, finally, there’s soone who can lead them to survive and even win.
"Prepare for dinner, let’s give everyone sothing good to eat today!" Qin Tian shouted and then waved his hand.
Buzz—
Spacial ripples unfolded in the center of the camp, dropping four half-person-high tal boxes, slightly shaking the ground.
"What is this..." Lu Sheng was the first to jump forward, reaching out to rub the alloy lock on the box, eyes full of curiosity.
Qin Tian signaled the nearby warriors to open all the boxes. With several light clicks, the box lids popped open, and the aroma instantly stunned everyone around—
The leftmost box neatly stacked compressed nutrition bars, but not the usual tasteless gray type. These were wrapped in chocolate-coated golden packaging, with several bags of dehydrated fruit beside it, red strawberries, yellow mangoes, shimring enticingly in the dim camp light.
The two boxes in the center were even more eye-catching: vacuum-packed beef stacked like a hill, a variety of canned food neatly arranged, and half a box of chilled nutrient liquid, with "High Energy Recovery" printed on the blue bottle surface.
The box on the far right contained fresh vegetables, moisture-sealed carrots, crisp green lettuce, and even a few round potatoes, with moist soil clinging to them, as if just harvested from a cultivation pod.
"Hiss—"
Sounds of sucking in air echoed through the crowd.
Lu Sheng widened his eyes, picked up a sausage, sniffed deeply, and couldn’t help but swallow.
The last ti he ate this thing seed to be two months ago. Usually, he wouldn’t even look at these sausages, but now, even just slling their scent makes his mouth water.
"What are you standing here for?" Qin Tian laughed, kicked the box, "Help yourselves, plenty to go around."
Boom!
The place exploded with excitent, no one expected that their commander not only mastered spatial storage capabilities but also prepared such a rich variety of food.
"Wow-ho, finally can have a decent al, my taste buds are almost numb!"
"There’s so much, I’ll cook later and let everyone try my skills."
"The commander is too good, simply omnipotent!"
"Long live the commander!"
The atmosphere was lively, having a victory and good food waiting—in what kind of wonderland had they ever enjoyed this kind of treatnt!
A long line had already ford next to the big pot, warriors holding various containers, with irrepressible smiles on their faces.
In the corner of the camp, the signal officer quietly reported all circumstances truthfully to brigade headquarters.
