Everyone remained silent on the way back.
Some were silent because there had been casualties during this mission. This was the first time the Evolutionary Legion had suffered casualties, with eleven evolutionaries dying in battle against the Alien Monsters.
Objectively speaking, the dead evolutionaries had all been "weaklings," but it still served as a warning to everyone.
They were not invincible.
There were still things on this planet capable of threatening their lives! Mr. Lin Qi had even said that these monsters were actually only the lowest-level "soldiers." In the future, creatures several or even dozens of times stronger than them would come here and engage them in battle.
It was not a pleasant feeling. During this period, they had completed all kinds of missions smoothly, giving everyone a sense of arrogance and conceit.
Reality had slapped them across the face. It had not sent them flying, but it had still left them somewhat dazed.
Another reason for the silence was that, once they returned, Mr. Responsibility would challenge Mr. A.
The victor would not only receive the unofficial title of "Strongest," but would also decide the future direction of the Evolutionary Legion.
Mr. Responsibility did not like Mr. A or his current appearance as a human lackey.
Evolutionaries should stand above all others and be revered and feared by humanity, not wag their tails around Lin Qi like a dog.
He did not want the Evolutionary Legion filled with people like that. If those lackeys ever truly came to occupy the Evolutionary Legion, then there would be no future! Mr. Responsibility had always refused to acknowledge Mr. A's strength verbally, but he had already accepted it in his heart. The more seriously he treated the matter, the more solemn and heavy the atmosphere felt, making him unwilling to speak.
