Chapter 75: Hidden Strength
Anson's weapon is a double sword. When wielding two ion machetes, it is as terrifying as a meat grinder. The disadvantage is that it is obviously insufficient as a one-handed weapon, and it is rarely used to attack mechas.
Anson was not so stupid that he gave up his lethality. The halberd behind the mecha was not a decoration. With the help of the fire bull's cover, he quickly rushed to the side of the charge boat, and instantly replaced it with the halberd, stabbed and pulled, leaving a cross wound on the surface of the armor. When the explosion occurred, he replaced it with two swords again and left freely.
The layman may look very exciting, but Chen Fang knew that this was not the strength of a quasi-fifth mercenary. Anson could approach the charge boat without the cover of a heavy mecha.
Linni's performance is not inferior, she is strangely approaching and kills with one blow. Every time she appears, it represents the doomsday of a pirate mecha, and then she will disappear quickly and then appear again.
The battle was similar to the expected situation, and it was meaningless to look at it. Chen Fang withdrew his gaze and went to bed.
The cabin was filled with screams, and the students could not see the trick. The hundred pirates were defeated by six mercenaries in the blink of an eye. This strange scene made them unbelievable. The mercenaries conquered them with unparalleled performance. In contrast, the actual combat of the academy was purely a pediatric department. While watching the battle, they began to guess the mercenaries corresponding to each mecha.
Zhang Ting's face is not good-looking. To become a member of the team of Taoist aid, one must abandon the concept of race and camp. Whether it is a noble, poor, or even rebels or pirates, they must be treated equally. It is precisely because of this belief that humanitarian aid can gain wide recognition.
The rescue team took the initiative to attack the pirates, which is probably the first time in history. Once this incident is exposed, it will definitely become a scandal. This rescue operation is very likely to die in the middle. For this reason, she must think of a satisfactory explanation.
Lu Lingxue was still as calm as water, unconsciously, and her eyes turned to the back cabin.
Sometimes, ordinary performance indicates extraordinaryness, the threat of pirates, and the excellent performance of mercenaries are enough to inspire people. Chen Fang is as lazy as usual. When watching the battle, he yawns from time to time, and finally falls asleep. Could it be that such a wonderful battle is not attractive to him at all?
When people who don’t know the details see Chen Fang’s performance, they must think that he is hopeless, but Lu Lingxue is the one who knows the details. She knows that this person is not a waste. During the actual combat course, the person who drives the skull-slasher is this person. The terrible feeling of absolute suppression is like a nightmare.
What's bizarre is that the skull-slasher revealed a flaw when she was in despair, as if she felt a ray of light in the darkness. She uncontrollably used her strongest bursting skill, and the battle ended. No matter how stupid she was, she could see that it was intentional.
Since she was not a waste, Chen Fang's performance was incredible. She embarrassedly discovered that the mystery of this strange man aroused her curiosity.
One hundred and twelve mechas, three assault boats, and a battle of six minutes and forty-nine seconds was a shameful result. If the opponent was not a pirate, but a rebel, he had been chased and killed at this moment.
The number of rebels was at least three hundred, their fortresses was stronger than the charge boats, they were well-trained, and familiar with the terrain was also advantageous to them, seven minutes were enough for them to hold on until reinforcements arrived.
Anson and others who returned in triumphantly could not see any joy, and ignored the students' admiration. After sending Susan away their complaints, they returned to their seats in despair and began to plot again.
A week later, the rescue team arrived at Xiunanxing, and the spacecraft landed in a dilapidated airport with simple facilities. It was known that it was temporarily built at a glance.
The explosions from afar were heard from time to time, as if reminding the students that this was the closest airport to the war zone and could be attacked by rebels at any time, so the atmosphere of the rescue team became tense.
"Climbing these two mountains is the Shaer Village. That is the first relief point for this trip. Everyone hurry up." Zhang Ting was busy and busy. The situation in Xiu Nanxing became increasingly tense. She decided not to be too close to either party. After counting the number of people and items, she immediately urged the team members to go on the road.
The war destroyed the roads and communications, and the rescue team could only trek on foot, and two weeks of physical training finally came in handy.
The mercenaries were temporarily divided into two groups, Anson's people were exploring the way forward, and Linni and others were responsible for placing the back.
Chen Fang was hanging behind the team as always, just walking with the mercenaries behind the mat. Because he always did this, no one felt strange.
In fact, Chen Fang is not easy. Although a large number of medical devices are collected in the space, each person still has about 20 kilograms of load. Don’t underestimate this inconspicuous burden. As time goes by, it will be unbearable.
Chen Fang was miserable and insisted stubbornly. He didn't know where the damn Fire Bull ran. He was embarrassed to ask a woman to help carry the bag. Moreover, Lin Ni did not talk to him after she appeared. At this moment, she looked frosty and made such a request, which was probably boring.
Unfortunately, the backpack on his shoulders became heavier and he trekked on the mountain road. Every time he bumped, his bag seemed to be pressing directly on his bones. In a moment, sweat soaked his clothes. After a fierce ideological struggle, Chen Fang decided to summon the fire cow.
As soon as I opened the communicator, I suddenly felt my shoulders light and my luggage reached Linni's hand.
Chen Fang felt warm and even though he knew that it was probably because he was bored by himself, he still expressed his gratitude.
"What do you think of this mission?" Linni had too many questions in her heart, and the task was the most concerned about.
"It's very tempting. I've reviewed the task menu. I've not only received a billion bonus for killing Aturu, but also a C-level special task reward. His right-hand man also has 300 million bonuses and a D-level special task reward." These rewards are enough to transform the team and may even advance again, but Chen Fang never substitutes the speculation element in his speech, and he doesn't like exaggeration.
"What tasks do you think we are capable of completing? With our strength, it is difficult to deal with the rebels in a small team. The task I asked was how to deal with the rebels." Linni was shocked by Chen Fang's ambition again, but being realistic is better. Ordinary people are unrealistic at most, and the price paid by mercenaries is life.
"Squad Rebels? If it were that kind of garbage mission, why did Anson join forces with me? Didn't you see that? His team didn't do all their efforts in the battle with the pirates." Chen Fang sneered when he thought of his allies' poor performance.
"You also let us hide our strength. I don't understand, what is the purpose of doing this?" Before facing the pirates, Chen Fang quietly told Linni with private words, asking her to pay attention to hiding her strength. Although Linni knew the reason, she still did what she did. At this moment, she just asked the whole story.
"Before accepting teammates, you have to test your strength first, and it is the same as choosing a cooperative team. If Anson thinks that we are not strong enough, you may give up cooperation." Chen Fang thought about it, as if recalling the situation at that time, Anson's performance was the heaviest, and the fast knife was even more outrageous. The level he showed was the same as that of the third-level mercenaries. The only real thing was Yao Jia. Maybe she was aroused by Chen Fang's exclusion and disregarded Anson's orders; maybe she thought that the two sniper mechas fired at the same time, and could not reveal her strength, or she was unwilling to lose to the Pili Bee, but she didn't know that Chen Fang reminded his teammates early in the morning to hide his strength.
It was a hypocritical performance, both sides were so that Chen Fang lost interest in watching the game in the end.
"What does this have to do with hiding strength? If it is a test, isn't it necessary to show strength?" Linni became more and more confused as she heard it.
"Why did Anson test us? Because he and us are not the same. If he finds out his strength, what trump cards do we have? Who knows whether he uses us as cannon fodder? Only by hiding his strength can one leave some of his strength as a bargaining chip for the turnaround."
Chen Fang suddenly realized that letting his teammates know that he was a cunning and suspicious guy was definitely not what a smart person did, so he said self-righteously: "You must be guarded against others, right? It is definitely not noble to be unpredictable to others, that is a fool. Trust between life and death is not just patting your shoulders or calling you brothers."
"Don't treat others as fools. Although I'm lucky, I have never experienced that kind of thing. I know that the first thing a mercenary has to learn to enter the industry is to betray teammates, or betray them by teammates. When facing a life-and-death decision, let yourself survive or let your teammates survive. No matter how you choose, it is right, let alone the temporary team formed, who knows what Anson's motivation is?" Perhaps this is another reason why Linni has long rejected her new teammates. She is unwilling to betray her teammates, nor does she want to betray her teammates.
Linni's luck comes from Tony. Tony defends his teammates with his life to forge the spirit of the team. With Linni here, this spirit will never disappear.
Chen Fang was also attracted by this team spirit and joined them. When he was charging, he had to worry about being betrayed by his companions. It would be a bad feeling. Chen Fang would rather choose a weaker team. Moreover, Tony's vision is not bad. The strength of this mercenary group is not bad. Despite the many problems, each member has good potential and qualities, and can use his merits to become a superior team.
"What a god, we actually reached a consensus. This is a gratifying progress and a historic step." Chen Fang began to get closer again. Although Linni was cold on the surface, she gave her teammates meticulous help. She must have a thick-skinned face when dealing with women who are cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
"We blindly conceal our strength. What should we do if Anson is disappointed? One beat and two breakups are not the result you want." Linni automatically filtered out nonsense and asked the most concerned questions.
"I'm free to do it." Unconsciously, someone's old habits were broken again, and he did his own thing and ignored his teammates.
It was indeed uncomfortable for Chen Fang to speak out the truth in a blunt manner, but his image in Linni's mind was not only not reduced, but instead added points. The truth was originally ugly, and trying every means to cover it up was hypocritical. He was at least honest, and his approach was to protect his teammates. Therefore, Linni still admired it very much, and did not care about him talking nonsense, and decided to indulge him once.
When she was at Hall Star, Chen Fang not only won her trust, but also made her feel dependent. Once a woman like Linni is dependent on a man, it will be difficult to change. She is not worried about Chen Fang's motives, nor does she doubt Chen Fang's ability. Anyway, she will know sooner or later, so why bother to be anxious? However, she still dare not think about the difficult task of killing Aturu.
When entering the war zone, the rescue team could meet the wounded from time to time while marching, and more were corpses. Zhang Ting, regardless of the identity of the wounded, was given treatment as long as she was still alive. Doing so would undoubtedly slow down the journey.
Whether it is seeing a corpse or a dying person, Anson is indifferent, especially when he sees the rescue team to save soldiers, he feels funny and his eyes are full of disdain, which is called hypocrisy.
The war is crazy. After a hundred years of war, the human nature of soldiers has long been distorted. Whether it is a government army or a rebel, in the eyes of civilians, they are devils and executioners. Whenever an executioner is saved, they will create more corpses, widows, orphans for Xiu Nanxing.
As a mercenary, Anson did not believe in the fraternal spirit of humanitarian aid, so when he had the opportunity, he would first turn the dying soldiers into corpses and do some good deeds for the civilians of Xiu Nanxing. Of course, his motivation was mainly to save time.
Even if he did it secretly, he could inevitably see some clues in the corpse, and Zhang Ting quickly became suspicious.
When he tried to kill a government army, he was finally captured by Zhang Ting and others on the spot, and an unpleasant quarrel broke out.
It doesn't make sense to talk to women, and Anson is not good at quarrels. In desperation, he found Chen Fang in the crowd.
"You are a student and a member of the rescue team, so you might as well say justice."
"What does it have to do with me?" Chen Fang regretted it. Can't you stay away when you watch the fun? Why are you doing so close?
Depressed, the women who were traveling with me were very interested in Chen Fang's views, especially Susan, who clearly wanted to see Chen Fang look ugly.
This is not a question of right or wrong, but a question of position. As a member of the rescue team, of course, he cannot agree with the murder, not to mention that the death is the government army. However, from a personal point of view, Chen Fang still tends to be Anson.
"Even if you want to kill someone, do it cleaner and you will be caught on the spot. Are you a fourth-level mercenary? Is it embarrassing to lose it?" Chen Fang quietly sarcastically said Anson as a vent of anger, and then expressed his opinion.
