Signs of war
"Eldia Revival Army? Boss, why change the name?" an Eldia Soldiers asked, puzzled.
Selina glanced subtly outside the tent, then calmly said, "Because the Eldia Restorationists' theories are somewhat unrealistic and impractical, this time we have a new goal, a goal that is truly worth fighting for."
In a corner outside the tent, Yago leaned against the tent with his arms crossed, listening to the meeting between Selina and her subordinates inside.
This was something he and Selina had agreed upon, because he was still infiltrating the Marley Army and needed the cover of being Marley Officer. It was inconvenient for him to show himself in front of the Eldia Restorationists, who should now be called the Eldia Revival Army. However, Selina could pass on Yago's ideas first.
"Unite all Eldians? Revive the Eldia People!? That certainly sounds more appealing than restoring the Eldia Empire!" Selina's subordinates were extremely surprised.
Selina nodded. "You should also make arrangements as soon as possible to spread the ideology of our Eldia Revival Army. This time, our goals are even more noble, and I believe more of our compatriots will join us!"
"Yes!" Everyone roared in agreement.
"Wait, there's one more thing. Our Eldia Revival Army has a spiritual leader, but considering the special circumstances, I can't introduce him to you yet. However, he is the one who proposed the ideology of the Eldia Revival Army. Please believe that under his leadership, we Eldians will eventually rise up!" Selina said solemnly.
"Is that so? I understand, Boss!"
When the core members of the Eldia Revival Army stepped out of the tent, they were still excitedly discussing something, but the figure eavesdropping outside the tent had already disappeared.
"This is so exciting! It's like the Foreign Great Revolution I've read about in books. Aren't our goals similar?" an Eldia Soldiers said to his Comrade nodded in agreement.
Little did they know that because of these two Soldiers, the Eldia Revival Army would later acquire another nickname: the Eldia Revolutionary Army. But that's a story for another time.
Watching her subordinates leave, Selina breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a weight lifted from her shoulders. Previously, all the hopes of the Eldia Restorationists had rested on her shoulders, which had put immense pressure on Selina. Now, things were much better; having a leader to take the blame made things much easier.
Unaware that he had become a scapegoat in Selina's eyes, Yago was idly strolling around the Military Camp.
Passing by the training ground, I saw Eldia Soldiers practicing target shooting. A series of rapid-fire shots rang out. This was because Yago's help had provided the Third Regiment with sufficient supplies, giving them the confidence to let the Soldiers practice. In the past, they would have been counting their bullets carefully; they certainly wouldn't have used them for target practice.
Yago, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't resist taking Rifle from a Soldiers and firing several shots. The recoil of the Rifle only made Yago's body sway slightly.
Although his posture looked cool, when he saw the target and only hit it once out of five shots, Yago's smile vanished instantly. What future was there in playing with guns? It wasn't as cool as the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear! Yago glared fiercely at the Eldia Soldiers who was trying not to laugh.
Then he turned around and continued to wander.
As he walked, Yago arrived at the training ground for the Warrior Candidate. It was guarded by tall and strong Marley Soldiers. Although outsiders were prohibited, Yago was not. Upon entering the training ground, he saw several children carrying huge backpacks, running laps under the scorching sun, following their leader, Colt.
You could tell from the kids' faces that they were exhausted, especially Zofia, who was clearly running out of energy and about to give up.
Perhaps the best-behaved of the children was Gabi, the brown-haired little girl who followed Colt closely.
After running countless laps, Colonel Koslow, who was in charge of training, finally blew his whistle to announce a break. Then, Colonel Koslow hurriedly left, seemingly to do something else.
At this point, even Colt couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed on the grass, panting heavily. The others were in the same boat, except for Gabi, who kept standing with her hands on her knees.
"Gabi, take a rest, you're too tired," Falco said, rubbing Gabi sore calves.
But Gabi excitedly said, "No need! I can do it! This time I will prove that I am the best candidate for the Titan Warriors!" However, before Gabi could finish boasting, a tall and upright figure appeared above her head in the sunlight, casting a large shadow.
Gabi turned around in shock, only to see the very man who had given her nightmares for days—the Marley Officer!?
Gabi stood frozen in place, her eyes darting away.
The other person said calmly, "This Warrior Candidate seems quite afraid of me?"
Gabi quickly shook her head. "No, no, you misunderstood. I was just spacing out."
But Yago's eyebrows remained raised. "So, you Warrior Candidate don't greet your officers?"
Upon hearing this, several Warrior Candidate immediately stood up and shouted in unison, "Greetings, Captain Loa!"
After glancing at the several Warrior Candidate a few more times, Yago finally turned and left.
The pressure that Yago exerted on Gabi was so intense, it felt like suffocation. Gabi only felt a little relieved after he Gabi, but the memory of being choked that day immediately flooded her mind.
Gabi had been somewhat excited, suddenly calmed down, as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water.
A figure suddenly rushed towards Yago, who had his hands in his pockets. Upon closer inspection, it was Colonel Koslow, the Instructors of the Marley Warrior Candidate. What was he doing here?
But Koslow seemed to be targeting Yago. He rushed up to Yago, grabbed Yago hand, and said anxiously and excitedly, "Brother Loa, war is about to begin! Orders have been given that all troops immediately march to the front lines! Take the Middle Easterners fortress!"
Yago was still a little stunned. "The war has begun?"
Before Yago could answer, Koslow rushed into the Military Camp to call for the Warrior Candidate, and the Marley Guard to assemble.
Yago stroked his chin. The war came too suddenly. Just in case, it seemed he needed to get more supplies and medicine. After all, there were many Eldia Revival Army in the Eldia Forces, who were all Yago's subordinates. Yago had to think of a way to deal with this.
