“Do you need me to come and help?”
“It’s just a matter of picking up some things. I can handle it on my own, buddy, no need to worry.”
“The failure of the missions in Shianggang and Sunrise Land has already made the supervisor very unhappy. If something goes wrong with this operation too, not only you but I will also face consequences.”
“I know, that’s why I’m going to make sure this is handled.”
“But I’m curious—why did you stop me from coming to Huaxia with you? Do you have something else you need to do?”
“It’s not that. I just feel that this is something I can handle alone. You should focus on your tasks. Besides, more people would only increase the chances of being noticed.”
“Alright, we’ll do it your way, but be extremely careful. You know you can’t be careless. You’re going to Yanjing.”
“Don’t worry, buddy. I’m not about to risk my life for nothing,” the shadowy figure replied lightly.
“This time, she called me. After all this time, I trust she’s ready, or she wouldn’t have contacted me.”
“But I’m concerned. Are you sure that person is really willing to help? We can’t afford any mistakes on this mission, even if we’re commanders.”
“You know me—I believe money makes the world go round.” The shadowy figure said.
“I believe that 99% of the problems in the world can be solved with money, including that woman.”
“Well then, I wish you success. If you run into any trouble, remember to call me.”
“Don’t worry, I will.”
With that, the shadowy figure hung up the phone and pulled back the hood of his black hoodie, revealing a face with blonde hair and blue eyes.
This person was none other than Walker, the one who had previously clashed with Lin Yi.
Walker’s main goal in Huaxia was to steal the Central Guards Brigade’s experimental report.
But beyond that, he had another important task to complete.
“Huaxia man, last time we didn’t get to finish our fight. This time, I’m here to send you to meet your maker.”
…
The next morning, Lin Yi and Ning Che were still sound asleep when they were abruptly woken by a knock at the door.
There was no need to guess—it could only be Qiu Yuluo.
Ning Che groggily got up and opened the door.
“I swear, you people with no X life really need to chill. It’s barely past six in the morning—why are you up so early?”
Qiu Yuluo rolled her eyes at her.
“Can you two focus on your responsibilities for once? Today’s the day of the Central Guards Brigade’s national recruitment. You’re both team leaders, so can you please take this seriously?”
Ning Che scratched her messy hair.
“How could I forget about that?”
Realizing they had work to do, the two didn’t go back to bed.
They even skipped their usual morning workout and quickly got dressed.
After washing up and having breakfast, the three of them drove to the Central Guards Brigade.
Meanwhile, at the Central Guards Brigade’s training ground, about eighty people were scattered around.
These were the candidates for the trial training.
Although it seemed like a lot of people, it was fewer than in previous recruitments.
Over the past two years, the Central Guards Brigade had conducted frequent national recruitments.
This was a concern among many families.
The frequent recruitments suggested that the Brigade’s casualties had reached alarming numbers.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t need to recruit so often when the teams were at full strength.
So, while there weren’t as many participants this time, there were still a decent number.
The eighty or so people were clustered in small groups across the training ground, quietly discussing various things.
“Have you heard? This time, the national recruitment is mainly for the Central Guards Brigade’s Team 4. I’ve heard it’s a brand-new team with no veteran members, so we’ll be the newest batch.”
Said a young man named Wang Chong, who looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.
“So, if we pass the recruitment, we’ll be assigned to the Team 4, right?”
Asked a woman named Yang Xiaoshan, who was around the same age as Wang Chong. Her appearance was rather ordinary—she was the kind of person who could easily blend into a crowd.
“Yeah, that’s about right.”
“If that’s the case, even if we get into the Central Guards Brigade, we probably won’t be given any missions for a while,” Ling Han commented from the side.
“That’s for sure. We’re newcomers with no experience, so we’ll probably be focusing on training for some time,” Yang Xiaoshan said.
“My cousin told me that Team 4 used to be really strong, but it was disbanded and reformed for some reason, so now we have this opportunity.”
Yang Xiaoshan’s cousin was none other than Yu Siyi from Team 1.
“Then let’s not think too much about it. If all goes well, the fourth team will be where we end up,” Wang Chong said.
Ling Han nodded.
For her, just getting into the Central Guards Brigade was enough; after all, there weren’t any other teams to choose from.
“But my cousin also said that if someone performs exceptionally well, they might be transferred to Team 1. But you’d have to be really outstanding—otherwise, there’s no chance,” Yang Xiaoshan added.
“Who’s your cousin? How does she know so much? Is she a member of the Central Guards Brigade?” Wang Chong asked.
“To be honest, my cousin is a member of Team 1. And in their team, there are only seven members. They follow a strategy of keeping the team small but elite. If I remember correctly, my cousin was already at D-class when she was recruited during a national recruitment, and even then, she barely made it into Team 1.”
“No way! You have to be at D-class just to barely make it into Team 1? If you’re not at D-class, you probably can’t even get in, right?”
“Well, it’s not all about that. If you’re not at D-class, reaching a D-cup might help,” Yang Xiaoshan said, puffing out her chest.
“What kind of weird requirement is that? This is the Central Guards Brigade, after all.”
Said Ling Han, who was only a B-cup.
“This is a serious, sacred place. They can’t possibly be judging people based on their body shape.”
“Other teams don’t have that requirement, but Team 1 does. My cousin said their team leader isn’t interested in women with less than a D-cup, so that’s where the ‘requirement’ comes from,” Yang Xiaoshan laughed.
“But I’m sure it’s just a joke. It probably just means they have a good team atmosphere and strong relationships.”
Ling Han nodded, agreeing that it was likely a joke.
“So, Team 1 is the Central Guards Brigade’s elite unit, right?” Wang Chong asked.
“Of course. That goes without saying,” Yang Xiaoshan replied.
“My cousin said Team 1 is undoubtedly the elite unit. Especially their team leader, who is incredibly strong. I’ve heard he’s already reached C-class. According to her, their leader is a monster—no one his age can match him!”
“But I heard that all the team leaders in the Central Guards Brigade’s four combat units are very young, with the oldest being just over thirty. And Team 1’s leader is already at C-class? Is his talent really that exceptional?”
“From what I could tell from my cousin’s expression, it seems true. And Team 1’s leader is apparently in his twenties, even younger than we imagined. Otherwise, my usually calm cousin wouldn’t have spoken so highly of him.”
“Do you know what the real criteria is for getting into Team 1?” Ling Han asked.
