After Breaking Up, I Married the General-Chapter 123 - 122: Harvesting Herbs

Chapter 123: Chapter 122: Harvesting Herbs
There were different varieties of plants growing under the tree.
The herbs they were looking for were growing in different parts under the tree it also surrounded some rare herbs.
He could finally understand why Lieutenant General Ren was able to get a lot of it even though it was not his main goal.
The herbs grew along different plants without being affected by the other plants and they were even thriving.
After confirming that there’s no danger all of them started doing their own jobs. He also saw that after they had enough samples the soldiers under Lieutenant General Ren broke off into different teams and went in different directions.
"Where are they going?" Ryzel asked after seeing a lot of soldiers going in different directions.
"They are going to look for the herbs in other places. The herb might also be growing in other places on this planet," Layton Lewis who was beside him answered.
"I see."
The others might indeed find other places where the herb grows. Even though there are already a lot of herbs here it is not enough to withstand the consumption of the federation. So, it is indeed good to see if there are other places where the herb grows.
The others were already studying the plants, the environment, and some were harvesting the herbs. Ryzel didn’t have a particular job to do so he started recording all the plants that were growing under the big tree.
Ryzel enjoyed taking the data of the plants around him. Some plants were also the same as the herb they got. They still have no data in the federation’s list of plants.
He could also hear the group from the medical center being excited because there were a lot of unrecorded plants in the clearing.
"How could there be a lot of unrecorded plants here?"
"Look at how different the plants here are compared to the plants on the way. Most of the plants here are all harmless and there are even a lot of rare herbs growing here together."
"Oh, it’s been a while since I saw a lot of undocumented plants."
A lot of people were working as explorers in the federation, and they often worked with mercenaries to go into different uninhabited planets to record or discover the living things inside of the planet.
That’s why as long as you searched it most plants in the federation already have data.
However, the frontline they were in is the most dangerous place, so it is understandable that the explorers haven’t fully explored the planet.
Most of the plants outside were also poisonous so even if some explorers came if they weren’t interested in poisonous plants then they would have ignored the forest and went to other places.
After being busy for a while he went and rested in the tent they arranged after clearing an area.
"Are you going to set up a guard team, here?" Ryzel asked.
"Yes, I will temporary live a guard team here before the once assigned from the capital could come."
"Aren’t you the one responsible for guarding this area?"
"The ninth army is indeed the one responsible for this area, but we are only responsible for monitoring the Zergs activity.
So, most of the time we are only monitoring if there are Zergs on the planet then take action.
The Capital would be the one to assign guards here together with a cultivation team," Layton Lewis explained.
"I see."
It is indeed better to assign other teams to guard such an area because it would only be a waste for Layton Lewis’ soldiers to just stay and guard a specific area.
All of them were very capable fighters so it is better for them to fight the Zergs than to just stay as guards.
Ryzel stayed with Layton Lewis at the tent while watching the others continue doing their own jobs.
His strength really isn’t comparable to the others.
The other guides in their team were still there gathering some herbs but he was already tired and needed to rest a bit.
While he was relaxedly sitting on the tent Lieutenant General Ren came to to Layton Lewis.
"General Lewis, Team 3 encountered an area blocked by a signal shielding device."
"Are they sure it was caused by signal shielding device?"
"Yes, according to them it wasn’t a natural phenomenon. According to them the signal was suddenly cut off as soon as they walked into the area without even any warning.
They tried walking around it and discovered that the place their signal was cut off was going in a straight line. So, they were sure that it was a signal shielding device."
"Let them stay put for the time being. Recall, all the teams we sent to the other areas and let them go to where Team 3 is."
"Stop everything here for the time being and let team 9 and 10 escort all the noncombatant personnel back to the spaceship. Team 11 and 12 will be going with us to where team 3 is."
"Understood."
Lieutenant General Ren went to stop all the people working as they needed to go back to the ship immediately. Actually, Lieutenant General Ren only needed to tell it to all the noncombatant personnel because all the sentinels in the area already heard their conversation due to their enhanced senses.
"Do I also need to go back to the battleship?" Ryzel asked.
"No need, I will be using Storm so you could stay inside with me," Layton Lewis said.
"Nice, I also wanted to see what is going on with the area with a shielding device."
When he heard there was a shielding device in Planet 125, he was a bit curious what was inside.
There were no notable resources in Planet 125 that others could have been interested in. So, he was a bit curious what was being hidden in such an area.
"By the way how did Team 3 discovered that there was a shielding device in that area?" Ryzel asked.
"Mr. Ryzel, you might not know but all the people in team 3 were a bit talkative.
They immediately noticed that that their communication signal was disconnected because they were all talking to each other," Lieutenant General Ren answered as he getting near them to .
"I see." It seemed that the subordinates of Lieutenant General Ren also have a bit of his personality. \
He already noticed that unlike most of the Lieutenant Generals of Layton Lewis, Lieutenant General Ren was the most talkative aside from Mervin.
"General all of them are all already done."
Within just a few minutes everyone had already finished arranging their equipment and other tools and were all ready to go back to the battleship.
"Team 9 and Team 10 escort all the noncombatant personnel to the battleship and be ready to go to where Team 3 is after we fully understand the situation inside the area with a shielding device."
After Layton Lewis gave a few more instructions Ryzel watched them go back.
The remaining people with them all took out their own mechas as they were also ready to go where Team 3 is located.
It’s been a while since he saw Storm, now that he was seeing him again his determination to continue training to enhance his physique was enhanced. He still wanted to drive his own mecha later on.
Layton Lewis held him and jumped up to Storm’s cockpit. Now, Storm also has a cozier chair beside Layton Lewis’ seat. So, Ryzel could finally be more relaxed while sitting beside Layton Lewis.
As soon as all the sentinels entered their own mechas they immediately started going to where Team 3 is located.
As they were travelling Ryzel could see where they were going through the screen projected by Storm.
"How long do we need to travel before reaching where Team 3 is?"
"Team 3 went up north, look at this red dot here. That’s where Team 3 is, and we are the blue dots here. So, according to our speed we could reach them in 20 minutes," Layton Lewis answered while showing the map in one of Storm’s screens to let him understand better.
"Oh, they already reached somewhere very far."
Looking at the map, Ryzel could see that Team 3 already wandered in a very far place compared to their original location.
Layton Lewis ordered them to search the planet to see if they could find more herbs and it seemed that Team 3 hadn’t found anything in any place along the direction they were assigned to. That’s why they already reached a very far place while looking for the herbs.
If they didn’t use their mechas and just used their gliders they would need to travel for four hours before reaching their destination.
After 20 minutes of traveling, they finally reached the place where Team 3 is. Ryzel looked and saw that the place looked just like other places he saw on the way.
