You Actually Doubt Mu Fan? (Alliance Leader He, Zhejiang C??)
(Adding a congratulatory title; I forgot to include it in the previous chapter.)
"I heard that their team encountered a large-scale Zerg attack when they went out."
"It seems that the Expeditionary Force encountered them, and then Team 1 went to rescue them."
"Are they out of their minds? The Expeditionary Force is already in such a state, and they're still going to join in?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, they're back."
Amidst the discussions, the Tiger Hunting Squad returned to base.
Looking at the congealed yellow-green fluid on these people's bodies, and at the team members with their colorful faces, none of the people in the base said a word.
These people exude an overwhelming aura of menace.
As soon as Luo Jianjin and the others returned, they went straight to find Major Lin Hao. Mu Fan and White Hair were surrounded by their companions who rushed forward.
People were very interested in the footage of the two of them fighting with Zeg and asked many questions.
"Did you encounter a lot of bugs on your trip?"
Mu Fan nodded, while the White Hair excitedly grabbed the guy's shoulder, saying with a nostalgic look, "We saved a team! The feeling of blasting those bugs with firepower was so exhilarating, a hundred times better than fighting in PO Battle Network!! Watching those bugs explode one by one in front of us was truly intoxicating!"
Are those Zegs powerful?
"Wow! Those soldiers wearing Exoskeleton Armor were pierced through by those bugs in an instant. These creatures are too cruel," the White Hair exclaimed.
"So how did you manage to defeat them?"
"My marksmanship is divine! Of course, our team is just as strong." He subtly flattered his teammate.
Seeing the White Hair talking so confidently over there, Young Master Zhang Tang's group all looked displeased.
"Hmph, putting on a show." Young Master Zhang Tang snorted coldly, he had absolutely no liking for White Hair.
"They talked like it was the end of the world and they saved the whole planet. That smug White Hair guy is so annoying."
"Young Master, is Zeg really as strange as he says?"
"Listen to him bragging."
Shi Sen, sporting a buzz cut, walked over. Coming from a military family and belonging to the nobility, he addressed Young Master Zhang Tang as he reached the group, asking, "Shaotang, aren't you going to ask them about Zeg's combat experience?"
The young man opposite him shook his head, his attitude showing no hesitation whatsoever.
"Shi Sen, are you going to ask those commoners for advice?" someone next to him asked, frowning.
"We are now going into battle as quasi-soldiers, to survive and to better complete our mission, nothing more," Shi Sen replied, then strode towards Mu Fan.
"What are you pretending for!" The man looked at Shi Sen's departing figure with dissatisfaction.
More and more teenagers gathered around the crowd, each wanting to ask their questions, because these experiences might just save their lives.
"What are the weaknesses of those Zegs? Can firearms penetrate them?"
"Yin Shuai, are there any precautions?"
"Uh, yes! As for precautions, I suggest everyone choose the Exoskeleton Armor. If you have time, you can familiarize yourself with it at the base." At this point, the White Hair, who was busy shooting and having fun in the battle, looked at Mu Fan with pleading eyes. He didn't seem to be able to say anything about Zeg's weaknesses.
Mu Fan noticed his gaze and suddenly spoke up, "Low-level beetles are relatively fragile, but the shells of higher-level Zegs are very hard, providing strong defense against physical damage. Metal bullets need to be fired repeatedly at the same spot to penetrate them."
After he finished speaking, all the boys around him listened with their breath held.
However, at that moment, an untimely chuckle rang out. An old soldier from some Special Operations Squad, whose identity was unknown, laughed as he watched Mu Fan speaking so eloquently.
A freshman Zerg Race once can openly act as an expert here. This is the height of ignorance. He never hesitates to pour cold water on such a confident recruit.
Therefore, when this soft laughter was heard, the eyes of the crowd who were quietly waiting for Mu Fan to speak were all drawn to it.
A burly man carrying a large Grenade Launcher looked at Mu Fan with amusement, and with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, it was easy to see that he was just looking for trouble.
Some people who were watching from a distance had their eyes light up.
Something interesting is finally about to happen!
It's impossible for new recruits not to be bullied by veterans after enlisting; I was wondering why things were so harmonious.
Sure enough, less than half a day after arriving at the base, this scene unfolded: a new recruit was being treated like a veteran, and someone was looking down on him.
The trainees and soldiers who were busy with their work began to straighten up and glance in that direction from time to time.
"Hey recruit, I almost believed you with your serious face. You've only been on the battlefield once and you're already back to give back your experience? You don't even have Exoskeleton Armor. If you want to brag, at least make sure you have a proper set of equipment."
People from other teams came over, looked at the veteran who had spoken, and laughed and cursed, "Croft, you bastard, bullying the newbies again."
"He didn't bully me this time, and to be honest, I wanted to laugh too, but I wasn't as brave as Croft."
Hahaha~~
These Special Operations Team soldiers had a natural sense of superiority over the trainees who were still greenhorns.
A group of academics, flowers grown in a greenhouse, are actually so high-profile in the outside world.
Mu Fan was interrupted. Looking at the people laughing at him, he calmly said, "What I said is the truth."
"Oh? I'll hold my laughter for a moment. I just want to ask you, were you more than a hundred meters away from those Zerg during the battle? Wearing combat gear and risking your life against the Zerg, how did you manage to come back alive? Did you kill a single Zerg?"
The boys then looked at Mu Fan. Yes, upon closer inspection, he was right.
Mu Fan shook his head. "No."
This remark immediately made the people who had gathered around laugh.
Only White Hair noticed Mu Fan's serious expression and felt a chill run down his spine.
tm's Mu Fan killed more than one!
You blind fools, why did you have to step on anyone?
You big idiots!
White Hair adjusted his mindset and looked at the veteran with a gloating look. He was planning to have Mu Fan use the Exoskeleton Armor. Once the kid used the armor, his damage output would probably increase exponentially.
"I didn't kill just one... I think it was seven," Mu Fan said with certainty after thinking for a moment.
"Seven beetles? Shot them to death?" Give him a Vulcan Cannon, and he can kill seven hundred beetles.
Mu Fan shook his head. "Five guards, one tiger bug, and one Spraying Tiger Bug."
Hearing new terms from Mu Fan's mouth for the first time, the teenagers were filled with curiosity.
Croft finally laughed when he heard Mu Fan say "tiger worm" very seriously.
Killing tiger-like insects with bare hands, that's quite a boast.
"You say you killed the tiger insect, but I want to ask you, what did you use to kill it? The tiger insect could have easily torn you apart with a single blow."
The Special Operations Team soldiers knew Zeg far better than these trainees; they knew exactly how troublesome the Tiger Insects were.
"Laser Spear"
"How was he killed?"
"Pierce in from the top. The tiger insect's carapace has weak resistance to energy beams, so it doesn't take much effort to pierce in."
"Very well, then where is your weapon? Can we take a look? That spear should have some of Zeg's bodily fluids on it."
"Destroyed by the Spraying Tiger Bug."
Mu Fan shrugged, indicating that he had no weapon.
Croft wondered if he was crazy; this guy was seriously bragging, and he was actually continuing to talk to him.
"... How did you kill that Spraying Tiger Bug!?"
Seeing the soldier's forehead twitching, White Hair finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"This is hilarious! It's one thing to question someone as awesome as me, but you guys are actually questioning Mu Fan?"
