Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 529 Executing a Suicide Mission, Would You?

"I don't know! What's the point of just standing here? Are we going to get stronger just by standing?"

"The instructor must have his reasons. He said before that his orders must be obeyed. We should just stand properly!"

"My brother is in the 156th Battle Squad. He told me that after entering the training camp, no matter what the instructor says, I have to listen obediently and execute his orders without question, unless I want to be eliminated. So, I think we should just keep standing here. The instructor must have his reasons!"

"Sigh! It wasn't easy to get selected. If I get eliminated now, it'll be even more embarrassing than not being selected in the first place. Standing is standing, I guess!"

"Yeah! That's right. Once you're eliminated, you'll not only be laughed at by those who were eliminated in the first place, but you'll also be suspected of being cowardly and afraid of death by those who were selected. I definitely can't be eliminated!"

"Then why are you still talking? The instructor told us to stand, but he didn't say we could chat!"

"Aren't you talking too?"

"Alright! Shut up, everyone!"

"..."

After that soldier took the lead in speaking, some soldiers also began to communicate in low voices, but in the end, they all shut their mouths and continued to stand at attention.

What they didn't expect was that this standing lasted a whole day. Li Chenzhou didn't come back after leaving them there. Instead, he ran to the group of people who were building the small world over there, gave them a lot of suggestions, and helped with the construction!

Although they were far away, everyone recognized Li Chenzhou. All the soldiers saw him, and they all felt quite awkward. You're the instructor, not a construction foreman. Why did you run over there to help and leave us standing here like idiots?

Some soldiers even wanted to go over and ask Li Chenzhou, but thinking about the potentially serious consequences, they ultimately didn't dare to!

It wasn't until the evening that Li Chenzhou came to the soldiers and waved his hand directly:

"Everyone, dismiss!"

After saying these four words, Li Chenzhou didn't care about anything and turned around and left. This time, the soldiers all protested and shouted:

"Instructor! Aren't you supposed to be training us? Why did you just make us stand for a day?"

"That's right, will this make us stronger? You might as well let us fight each other!"

"Yeah, Instructor, standing here is meaningless. Or, you could take us over there to help with the construction, too, right?"

"Instructor, will we have to stand tomorrow too?"

"Instructor, when can we start the real training?"

"..."

Hearing the soldiers' voices, Li Chenzhou stopped, didn't say anything, and just turned around to look at the soldiers, his face expressionless.

After the soldiers asked a lot of questions and didn't get any response, they gradually stopped and looked at Li Chenzhou's face. Almost all the soldiers felt a bad premonition in their hearts!

"No more questions?"

After the soldiers were all silent, standing there and looking at Li Chenzhou, Li Chenzhou waited for another two minutes or so. Still, no soldiers spoke, so Li Chenzhou asked.

The soldiers looked at each other, but no one said anything.

"Hmph! You can't take it after just the first day? Then all of you can get lost!!!"

Li Chenzhou suddenly darkened his face and shouted:

"Now I'm starting to regret choosing you. You're supposed to be the elites of the military? Are you worthy? People like you should go over there to work, just like you asked, because you don't even have the qualifications to join the army!!!"

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, the soldiers' faces all turned red. Of course, they were unconvinced. Being transferred here by Hu Tao and Dugu Tianfeng meant they were already elites in the military or the Avengers Alliance. On top of that, they were selected from more than 30,000 people, making them the elite of the elite!

Now that Li Chenzhou said they didn't even have the qualifications to join the army, they were naturally unconvinced, but no one dared to say anything because it was obvious that Li Chenzhou hadn't finished speaking!

"Hmph! What? You're all unconvinced, right?"

Looking at the soldiers' expressions, Li Chenzhou sneered and then ordered:

"Everyone, turn on your individual soldier auxiliary devices!"

The soldiers didn't know what Li Chenzhou was going to do, but they all turned on their individual soldier auxiliary devices. Then, Li Chenzhou played a video.

This was a video of the 156th Battle Squad's soldiers recovering Base Three, from the perspective of a single soldier.

This soldier was at an intersection in the base. In front of him were densely packed Blue Demons and zombies. At this moment, a command came from his communicator:

"Advance forward, direction twelve o'clock, distance fifteen meters!"

When the video played to this point, Li Chenzhou pressed pause and raised his head to ask the soldiers:

"You can all see what's fifteen meters in front of this soldier, right?"

The soldiers looked at each other. Of course, they all knew that was a horde of Blue Demons and zombies. This command was telling the soldier to charge directly into the enemy ranks!

Although they had all seen the power of the 156th soldiers before, looking at the number of Blue Demons and zombies in front of them, they didn't think that the soldier had any chance of surviving after charging in!

However, they had all heard that the battle to recover Base Three only lasted two days. The 156 soldiers, with just those 156 people, had killed over 50,000 zombies and Blue Demons, and finally recovered Base Three!

Although it was said that the Blue Demons suddenly disappeared for some unknown reason, they had still recovered Base Three. Moreover, they had killed over three hundred times their own number of Blue Demons and zombies. That meant that they had each killed an average of at least 320 Blue Demons and zombies!

This record was absolutely terrifying because it was completed in two days! Before this, the highest kill count in the Dolo World was held by someone who killed over 80 zombies in three days!

In addition, the most important thing was that, according to the information they had received, no one in the 156th had died in those two days of fighting. There were 156 people at the start of the battle, and there were still 156 people after recovering Base Three!!!

This was definitely a miracle! At least for the Dolo World, it was an absolute miracle!

Since no one had died, then, looking at the image on the individual soldier auxiliary device, all the soldiers felt that the soldier probably hadn't charged in because they couldn't imagine how he could have survived after charging into that group of Blue Demons and zombies.

But since Li Chenzhou asked this question, there must be a reason. So, even though the soldiers had an answer in their hearts, no one dared to answer.

"Not sure? Then I'll ask in a different way!"

Seeing that the soldiers were all silent, Li Chenzhou said again:

"If you were the soldier in the video, would you execute this order, issued by your captain, which, at least in your opinion, is completely sending you to your death?"
