These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 288: Invasion (7)
"Well, we wanted to see what happened with the Abyss Demons. You were able to deal with the ones that were harassing you, so we wanted to see if there was anything we can help you with." One of the captains said with a sly smile.
The other captain turned to look at Yun Tian before saying, "It seems like we've come at just the right time."
There was a dark look that appeared on Captain Fang's face when he heard this before he calmed himself down and said with a cough, "This is an internal matter. I don't think that this is something that involves the two of you."
But even with him rejecting the two of them like this, the two captains didn't seem fazed at all.
Instead, they just looked at Yun Tian and one of them asked, "Are you the one that dealt with those Abyss Demons just now?"
Yun Tian could see the way that Captain Fang was looking at him, but there was no fear or hesitation in him as he said, "That's right, it was us."
The captains both revealed wide smiles when they heard this while Captain Fang's face looked even uglier.
If possible, he really wanted to put his hand over Yun Tian's mouth to shut him up.
It was just that in front of the other captains, he really couldn't do that.
The only thing that Captain Fang could do was say, "Brother Yun, how about we discuss how to deal with these Abyss Demons? I'm sure that with my help, we can take care of these Abyss Demons without a problem."
Yun Tian gave a soft snort before saying, "I still have to report to my new position on the frontlines."
Captain Fang's lips twitched for a second when he heard this before he said with the same smile, "How could someone as important as you be sent to the frontlines? Naturally you'll be working with me. After all, our family have been good friends for many generations now."
With how he was looking at Yun Tian, it was as if he was trying to force him to follow his words, but Yun Tian once again wasn't moved at all.
Rather, it seemed like Yun Tian was even tired of Captain Fang with the expression on his face.
The two captains didn't hesitate to jump on this.
"Brother Yun, if you want, you can always come to my team."
The other captain glared at that captain that made a move first before saying, "Brother Yun, ignore him. If you come to my team, I'll give you whatever you need to deal with the Abyss Demons."
Yun Tian didn't respond even though they were basically throwing themselves at him.
It seemed like the high grade Abyss Demons had dealt quite a blow to the other lines of defenses with the way that they were acting.
When Captain Fang saw the other two captains acting like this, his face couldn't help turning ugly again.
If he could have gotten Yun Tian to follow him, then he would have been able to set the terms for them. He would have been able to gain quite a few benefits if he had been able to convince them to let him take the lead with Yun Tian as a card.
But now…
After letting them continue for a bit, Yun Tian said, "I understand that the situation is grim, but it's not as if I can be everywhere at once. Rather, the only thing that I can do is help each line of defense when the high grade Abyss Demons come."
The two captains seemed to hesitate a bit when they heard this.
It was as if they also wanted to do the same thing as Captain Fang.
They had wanted to use Yun Tian as well to help them raise their own influence, but he really didn't seem like he was falling for it.
And since the other captains were here, they had no choice but to restrain themselves.
They just couldn't do anything when the other captains were here as well.
This tense mood was broken in the end by two people who suddenly arrived.
The captains seemed to recognize these two as they had ugly looks on their faces when they saw them.
It turned out that these two were representatives that had been sent by the last two captains.
Like this, all five captains of the defense line were represented in this matter.
"I think that the best way is to create a roaming group that deals with these hidden Abyss Demons." Yun Tian gave this suggestion in the end.
The captains and representatives didn't look exactly happy to hear this.
It was clear that all of them had wanted something a bit more from Yun Tian with how they had all gathered here, but that was also part of the problem. Since they were all gathered here, it meant that they were restraining each other and stopping each other from acting too excessively.
The one that was suffering the most from this was naturally Captain Fang.
In the first place, Yun Tian was under him and he wanted to use Yun Tian for his own gains.
But the more and more that happened, the more that he was losing control of the situation.
"Alright."
One of the captains suddenly gave his agreement.
It wasn't that he wasn't planning anything, it was just that there was nothing left for him to plan.
At this point, it was better to agree with this than to push Yun Tian too far. At the same time, being the first one to agree would be a good way of showing his support for Yun Tian, something that Yun Tian wouldn't forget.

The other captains and representatives narrowed their eyes to glare at him, but then they also gave their agreement as well.
It was like a tide that couldn't be stopped.
Just like this, there was a special independent unit that was created for Yun Tian and his team.
Naturally that team included me as well who had been silently watching from the side.
