I'm Not That Easy to Kill

The weather remained as gloomy and cold as ever, as if even the heavens knew that today would be an eventful day, giving the entire sky a sense of oppression.

On the outskirts of the Russian Branch, in a vast open space, many people had gathered.

Of course, there are not only people here, but also military helicopters and armored vehicles.

One by one, the God Eater wielding divine machines and the soldiers carrying weapons and equipment gathered here. Some began to board planes and vehicles, while others discussed things on the spot.

Fang Li and his group were also among them.

As the military helicopters and armored vehicles began to start up, and the departure time was approaching, Fang Li turned his gaze to Soma, Sakuya Tachibana, and Soma.

At this moment, the three God Eater were fully prepared and ready to set off at any time.

"Captain Amamiya, Miss Sakuya, Mr. Soma," Hibari said with great concern, "Please be careful."

Hibari was, after all, just a communications officer and could not possibly go to the battlefield.

Therefore, this time, among the people from the Far East Branch, only Hibari will stay behind to be responsible for communicating with everyone and passing on messages and intelligence.

Originally, the only support from the Far East Branch was this group of people. Now, apart from Hibari, everyone else has to go to the battlefield, which inevitably makes Hibari feel uneasy.

What worries Hibari even more is the mission of Soma and the others.

"No matter how careful we are, if we're destined to die, there's no escaping it." Soma shrugged, saying with a hint of helplessness, "Well, we're in charge of the most important part, aren't we?"

"Yes." Sakuya Tachibana also said helplessly, "It's hard to believe that we, the outsiders, are in charge of the most important mission objective."

"Hmph." Soma turned around, his grip on the Divine Machine tightening little by little.

No way.

Even though they are known as the best Aragami-slaying force in the Far East Branch, this mission is extremely dangerous for Soma and his group.

During the strategic meeting, Soma and his group were given only one mission.

Target of attack: Aphrodite.

"This threat can actually be said to have been caused by Aphrodite alone." Soma held a cigarette in his hand but did not light it, as if talking to himself, and said, "Naturally, if we want to resolve this crisis, we can only deal with Aphrodite first."

The Aragami preparing to attack the Russian Branch are only here because of Aphrodite's manipulation.

In other words, once Aphrodite is dealt with, the army of the Aragami will automatically disperse and will no longer launch a unified attack on the Russian Branch.

Conversely, if Aphrodite is not dealt with, the only way to resolve this incident is to annihilate all the attacking Aragami.

However, the number of the gathered Aragami was terrifyingly large.

If we really want to defeat them, it's absolutely impossible to succeed unless Fenrir branches all over the world send reinforcements.

In that case, the Russian Branch naturally had to start with Aphrodite.

It is absolutely necessary to defeat Aphrodite.

Now, this task has fallen to the First Unit from the Far East Branch.

The reason is not hard to guess.

"Regardless of whether the Far East Branch's First Unit can successfully defeat Aphrodite, the God Eater that came are not from the Russian Branch. Even if we die in battle, it doesn't matter." Fang Li said as if he were talking about someone else's business, as if it were none of his own. "We've really been used as pawns."

"... No matter what, this is a mission." Sakuya Tachibana's expression grew increasingly helpless, but she remained unwavering as she said, "Since it's a mission, we must complete it."

"Yes." Soma shouldered the Divine Machine and spread his hands, saying, "Moreover, we are not the only ones going to the front line. Our mission is only to deal with Aphrodite. As for the other Aragami, the God Eater of the Russian Branch will be responsible for resisting them."

"I will keep everyone informed of the latest information as soon as possible," Hibari said quickly. "With everyone being so capable, we will definitely be able to get through this safely."

Upon hearing this, everyone smiled slightly.

Only Fang Li, speaking meaningfully to Soma, said, "Not only were you given the most dangerous missions, but I was also assigned to the front lines to plant landmines injected with Oracle Cell on the front lines in order to stop the Aragami's advance. Apart from Hibari, who poses no threat, the rest of us were sent out."

This inevitably raises suspicions that some people with ulterior motives might not want Fang Li group to stay in the Russian Branch, so they made this special arrangement.

This is what Fang Li wanted to express.

"In other words, we are ultimately a threat to them." Soma closed his eyes, but then immediately opened them again, jokingly saying to Fang Li, "If you're scared, it's not too late to run away now."

"I'll consider it." Fang Li pursed his lips, then suddenly smiled and said, "As long as I complete my task."

Without the Main Mission One and Main Mission Two missions, Fang Li might have disregarded the Russian Branch's arrangements, defied orders, and continued to infiltrate the Russian Branch, seeking opportunities to complete Side Mission.

However, considering the Main Quest, Fang Li also needs to go to the battlefield.

"Perhaps this is why Side Mission reach A-level difficulty."

If it conflicts with the Main Quest, then Fang Li will naturally find it much more difficult to complete the Side Mission.

Ultimately, how to proceed depends entirely on the arrangements Fang Li.

"You're definitely in far more danger than I am, aren't you?" Fang Li looked at Soma and said with a half-smile, "Do you have any last words you'd like to leave for me?"

"There were no last words, but there were orders." Soma couldn't help but smile, then looked at Fang Li.

There are three orders.

"Don't die."

"Escape when you're about to die."

"Then I went into hiding."

"If you see an opportunity, then go and defeat the enemy."

After leaving these words, Soma waved his hand and boarded the helicopter with Sakuya Tachibana and Soma.

Fang Li watched quietly as Soma and her group left, and only after a long while did he sigh.

"There are clearly four orders."

"Mr. Fang Li," Hibari said to Fang Li with utmost seriousness, "Please make sure you come back alive."

"Don't worry." Fang Li smiled slightly, his expression calm.

"I'm not that easy to die."
