After Bai Qixue left, Luo Yan returned to Dragon Rider Base alone.
When he opened the door to the squad dormitory, he heard Jing Yu and the others discussing something in the living room.
Their voices were agitated, and the discussion seemed quite heated.
Luo Yan entered the living room. They looked over, and Luo Yan asked, "What are you discussing?"
Vice Captain Bai jumped up and raised his eyebrows. "Captain, you don't know yet?"
"Today, the Strategic Affairs Department issued an announcement. They're recruiting volunteers from among all the cultivators in the Strategic Affairs Department."

Jing Yu stood up and said, "It's about exploring Yanfu."
"The laboratory has already succeeded several times in sending animals into Yanfu. Now, they're going to attempt sending humans into Yanfu."
"Therefore, the Strategic Affairs Department is recruiting volunteers on a large scale."
Ning Xi said, "Actually, I don't understand. Why do they have to recruit cultivators? Can't ordinary people do it?"

Luo Yan nodded. "It should be."
Vice Captain Bai spoke again at this point. "Oh, right. The Commander's Office called just now. They said that once you returned, you should go there. Commander Bai seems to be looking for you."
Luo Yan raised his eyebrows and turned to leave.

The Deputy Commander was already used to it.
Hearing footsteps, the two looked up.
