Chapter 583 The Golden Army
Hearing Ling Yue's words.
Tao Yao was stunned.
Her first instinct was to push the matter away.
"Such a small matter can be left to your second sister to handle."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fei Ying cast a helpless glance at him from beside him.
Hiyori silently put down the game controller in her hand, sighed softly, and rubbed her temples.
They said they wanted to build an amusement park together.
They said they wanted to start from scratch and build a survivor camp that belonged to them.
But when it comes to the actual implementation stage, this nominally big sister, whenever she encounters something that requires brainpower or effort, her first thought is always to push her out as a shield.
Tao Yao is clearly the one who has the final say and the ultimate decision-making power.
And I always indulged her without any principles.
Thinking about all this, a feeling of helplessness, both laughing and crying, welled up in Fei Ying's heart.
But what can be done?
Who can blame her for being Tao Yao?
She stood up resignedly, preparing to take Tao Yao's place and handle the matter outside the door.
However, at that moment...
Ling Yue's voice, filled with unprecedented difficulty and anxiety, rang out again from outside the door.
"This... I'm afraid it will still be up to you and Second Sister to handle this together."
These words made Fei Ying, who was about to get up, pause, and finally made the lazy, wicked woman on the sofa take her eyes off the game console.
Tao Yao turned her head, and a hint of seriousness flashed in her clear eyes.
She put down the handheld game console, slowly stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.
Looking at Ling Yue outside the door, who looked nervous and even had beads of sweat on her forehead, Tao Yao's voice returned to calm.
"what happened?"
Ling Yue swallowed, seemingly still processing what she had just witnessed. Her speech was somewhat rapid and slightly disorganized.
"Uh...an army has arrived outside..."
"They could be called an army, all wearing gleaming gold armor. They looked... intimidating, and clearly not to be trifled with."
Ling Yue tried her best to describe it.
"However, those people didn't make any rash moves. Instead, they behaved themselves quite well, just standing guard outside our camp, saying... they wanted to see the leader of our camp, which is you, Big Sister..."
These words caused the atmosphere in the room to freeze instantly.
Fei Ying followed Tao Yao out, and upon hearing Ling Yue's description, an almost absurd expression appeared on her face.
She looked at Ling Yue speechlessly.
"Do you want to hear what you're saying?"
Hiyori's voice was slightly hoarse.
"army?"
"As far as I know, there is no need for, nor is it possible for, a large-scale, organized army to exist in this wasteland."
"Even if there were, they wouldn't be from here."
Hiyori's analysis was calm and also in line with the current situation in the wasteland.
However, Ling Yue was so anxious by her words that she stomped her feet.
"Big Sister, Second Sister, I'm telling the truth! Go and see for yourselves!"
……
When Tao Yao and Fei Ying, led by Ling Yue, rushed to the camp entrance with a group of camp members who had gathered after hearing the commotion.
Everyone was so stunned by the sight before them that they were speechless.
Outside the camp's simple wooden gate.
A team of several hundred people stands silently in the wilderness.
They really were all dressed in uniform, golden armor that shone brilliantly in the setting sun.
The armor was classically beautiful, covering the soldiers' bodies completely except for their sharp, calm eyes.
They stood in neat rows, their bodies ramrod straight, like a silent steel forest, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
That wasn't the typical raider group, a motley crew common in the wasteland.
It was a disciplined, well-trained, real army.
Hiyori was deeply shocked by what she saw.
Standing beside her, Tao Yao's clear eyes flashed with a mixture of understanding and complexity the moment she saw the golden armor.
She recognized those armors.
That unique design style, which combines magnificence and practicality, and the emblem branded on the chest of the armor, representing the sun and royal power.
That was the standard military armor of the Golden Kingdom.
I never imagined that I would be able to see this legendary army in person in this era.
The golden kingdom of old still exists.
Just as Tao Yao was observing the army, a tall woman, also dressed in golden armor, slowly stepped out from the enemy ranks.
Her armor was more elaborate than that of ordinary soldiers, and she wore a deep red cloak.
That must be a general.
The female general stopped about twenty meters from the camp gate, took off her helmet, and revealed a strikingly handsome face.
She gave a standard military salute to Tao Yao and Fei Ying, who were standing at the front of the crowd.
The movements were swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
Then, she spoke in a clear and loud voice.
"You two must be the leaders of this camp, right?"
Her gaze swept over Tao Yao and Fei Ying with a polite scrutiny.
"I am Livia, and I belong to the Third Squadron of the Salvation Army of the Golden Kingdom."
Her voice was steady, yet it inadvertently revealed an arrogance stemming from her immense strength.
"Now, calamities rage, demons wreak havoc on the world, and all people suffer on this wasteland."
"The great Queen, with her heart set on the well-being of all people, has specially formed the Salvation Army to eliminate the evil, restore order, and protect all surviving humans."
"I heard that a new survivor camp has recently been established here, so I have come here to formally invite you to join us."
"The Queen promised that all camps willing to accept asylum would receive the full help and support of the Salvation Army."
These words were spoken in a grand and righteous manner, full of a sense of awe and righteousness.
Although it sounds like an invitation, the condescending attitude makes it seem more like an invitation that cannot be refused.
Upon hearing these words, the surrounding survivors all showed expressions of excitement and longing.
In this wasteland where survival is uncertain, being protected by such a powerful army is something they never dared to dream of.
However, Tao Yao's reaction as the invited protagonist was completely unexpected by everyone.
She listened quietly, then uttered three words in a calm, even voice.
"You go."
The air seemed to freeze completely at that moment.
The confidence and composure on the face of the female general Livia froze instantly.
She clearly hadn't expected this answer and even wondered if she had misheard.
She paused for a moment, then subconsciously asked a question in return.
"What did you say?"
Tao Yao raised her eyes, her clear eyes looking at her quietly, and repeated herself.
"We don't need you."
