Playing a DPS Role with Absolute Defense-Chapter 222 - 220: Tu Hongwu’s Calculations

Second Granduncle frowned instantly upon hearing the discussions around, and immediately spoke:

"Don’t talk nonsense. Su War God just went out for a ride and will be back soon." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Everyone here is an old hand at military affairs, surely you know what to say and what not to say."

"Exactly, we just need to wait here for a little while, and Su War God will probably return."

"But isn’t it against the rules for Su War God to leave us like this?"

"Youngsters, making mistakes is quite normal."

"Yes, yes, let’s just wait here patiently for a bit."

Somewhere on the Alien Race Battlefield

Su Mo looked bewildered at the White Dragon Horse before him: "Isn’t there a saying that an old horse knows the way? How come when you came out, you don’t know how to get back?"

"Wuu, puh~... "

"You’re saying you’re a young horse, not an old one!"

Hearing this, Su Mo was stunned. Although he wanted to retort, after thinking about it, he realized it’s indeed the case.

After all, the White Dragon Horse had only hatched from an egg less than three hours ago.

Calling it an old horse would really be forcing it to do the impossible.

So what should we do now!

The main problem is that I don’t know the way either!

He didn’t even know the name of the place they stepped out from just now.

If he knew the name of the place, he could ask for directions while making his way back.

Even if there was a language barrier, he could still ask for directions with gestures or even with fists and feet.

Of course, it would be best if he could meet someone from the Human Race.

But in the current situation, there’s not even an Alien Race, let alone Human Race; it’s safe to say it’s a godforsaken place.

Su Mo did think about using the communicator to contact his master.

But he didn’t dare, after all, his master entrusted this group of 320 people to him, and as soon as they arrived at the Alien Race Battlefield, less than half an hour later, he got lost.

He didn’t even know how to explain it.

If there was any real reason, he could still make up some story, like some others got lost too, or an alien invasion scattered their team.

But this was purely because he was too playful and ended up losing himself.

Just the thought of having to ask his master was already making him faintly hear Tu Hongwu’s scolding.

Su Mo patted the White Dragon Horse’s back and tentatively said: "Why don’t we try walking back?"

The White Dragon Horse looked at Su Mo with its black eyes, maybe it understood, maybe it didn’t, but it nodded after a snort.

Su Mo, regardless of whether it understood, mounted the horse and indicated for the White Dragon Horse to run back.

In this pitch-black world, not only is there no light, but even the soil and rocks are black.

Everywhere he looked were broken peaks and craters left by battles, and it’s no exaggeration to say there were ruined walls and ruins.

But the more it was like this, the harder it was for Su Mo to find his way back because every direction looked somewhat familiar.

This side seemed like he walked through earlier, and that side seemed like he walked through earlier as well...

After wandering around for a while, not only did Su Mo fail to find his way back, but he couldn’t even find the place where they stopped earlier.

He tried running and even tried flying, as they say, fly high and see far, but after soaring into the pitch-black Alien Race Battlefield sky, he couldn’t clearly see where the land was below.

He then tried having the White Dragon Horse return to its original form, hoping its gigantic size might attract Second Granduncle’s attention so they could come find him.

Instead, it didn’t attract Second Granduncle but drew a group of Alien Races instead.

Alien Races might be terrifying monsters to others, but to Su Mo, they were just a large amount of spare Free Attribute Points.

Seeing the Alien Race, Su Mo had no hesitation, Qingti Horse Deputy turned around immediately, charging directly at the group of Aliens of unknown race.

Riding the White Dragon Horse at high speed, his weapon swung continuously.

Sometimes it took the form of a Guan Saber, other times a Heaven-piercing Halberd, and at times transformed into a Bright Silver Spear, each swing securing a massive amount of Free Attribute Points.

Su Mo laughed heartily as he fought, truly experiencing the thrill of the battlefield.

At this moment, he even forgot why he came in the first place.

Then, after killing this large batch of Alien Races, he realized he was completely lost. It seems like he was already lost before...

In the Three-Eyed Realm, the Nine-Layered Blood-colored Treasure Tower in Tu Hongwu’s hand clearly displayed the movements of all Humans in the starry sky, along with troop deployments everywhere.

His focus was particularly on his disciple, even setting up a display just for watching everything Su Mo was doing.

When he saw his disciple just having entered the Alien Race Battlefield and already taken down over ten thousand War Giant Trees, he felt rather gratified.

But then, watching Su Mo’s series of blunderings, the veins on his forehead throbbed.

He did expect Su Mo might cause some trouble entering the Alien Race Battlefield alone.

But that would be later, surely!

From a normal person’s perspective, at least when they first enter the Alien Race Battlefield, they’d be more cautious, ensuring there’s no issue for the first three to five days.

Yet, within the blink of an eye, he managed to abandon the 320 seasoned veterans he’d specially prepared for him.

He originally planned to let him train a bit in leading troops, feeling the unity of the Human Race, then once familiar, have him venture out on his own.

After all, each of those 320 veterans could lead an army on their own on any battlefield.

Experts in analyzing battlefield dynamics, they could offer advice should any issue arise for Su Mo.

But with this giant mess, he really didn’t know what to say.

Initially, Tu Hongwu hoped to wait for Su Mo to contact him and admit his mistakes before he would thoroughly reprimand him and tell him how to return.

But waiting left and right, he never saw Su Mo reach out to him.

An hour, two hours, five hours, ten hours...

At this moment, watching Su Mo still galloping happily on his White Dragon Horse on the Alien Race Battlefield from the display, he was even tempted to contact him and give him a good scolding.

But then he thought since Su Mo, with his abilities, definitely won’t encounter any real trouble, let’s let him have his fun for a bit longer. He’ll give him a proper lesson once Chu Tian finds him.

For now, he should focus on assigning those veterans to the main forces.

However, the arrangements for Su Mo must not change.

The Human Race needs a War God who can truly shoulder a great responsibility, not a lone wolf.
