Chapter 616: Chapter 630 I Want to Challenge You
Following the leading soldier, Mu Can t with the General stationed in this town, and he felt the General looked astonishingly familiar.
It was as if he greatly resembled the General hidden in the mountains; after inspecting the three of their Tokens, the General suddenly asked a question.
“Is my brother doing well?”
Indeed, this General was truly related by blood to General Chang Ming, and they were even brothers.
“General Chang Ming is well, and we haven’t had much interaction,” Mu Can replied honestly, knowing that lying to such an enigmatic figure would be the most unwise choice.
“Then why would my brother entrust these three Tokens to you?” The General scrutinized Mu Can, then inquired further.
“Perhaps it is due to my identity as an Alchemy Master.” He had thought the Token was just an ordinary one, not realizing its significant status.
“Oh? You are an Alchemy Master?” The General’s eyes lit up; what the army lacked the most was Alchemy Masters, as the impact of one Alchemy Master could surpass that of a group of warriors.
“Yes, I am an Alchemy Master, and these are my companions,” Mu Can spoke up.
“Then let ask you, are you willing to join the Empire’s army?” The General sized up Mu Can, his face now bearing more of a smile than before.
“We are willing.” The three of them nodded eagerly; the task given by their assistant was clear, and they would certainly regret it if they refused now.
“Good, then the three of you will be assigned to the Vanguard Camp. After you have achieved so military rit, I will grant you rewards.”
Although they were people introduced by his own brother, as a General, he must be clear about rewards and punishnts; before Mu Can and his companions had shown their worth, he had no grounds to reward them.
After expressing their thanks, they followed the earlier soldier’s lead to the Vanguard Camp.
As soon as they arrived at the Vanguard Camp, Mu Can could sense sothing amiss, not because of anything else but because of the people here.
The mbers of the Vanguard Camp were like fierce bandits, exuding intense murderous aura all over.
Compared to them, the three looked just like children.
“Ha-ha-ha, Boss, new blood has arrived, co out and see!” A brawny man with a loud booming voice shouted.
A group of fellow soldiers in training surrounded them, giving off the impression of onlookers at a rare animal exhibit.
Ye Feng and Da Zhuang imdiately drew their weapons, coldly facing the people around. Being bullied was sothing they couldn’t stand, even if they were outmatched, they wouldn’t allow themselves to be pushed around.
The trio was encircled in the middle when a brawny man with a bare upper body and scars all over walked out, even with a long scar across half his face, Scarface sneered as he looked over Mu Can and his companions.
As soon as the brawny man stepped forward, all the chatter ceased, only the man who had spoken earlier ca up to greet him.
“Boss, new blood has co; at long last, General Chang Ming has sent us so newbies,” that man comnted gleefully to Scarface.
There was an interesting rule in the Vanguard Camp: newcors had to wash the clothes and socks for other soldiers.
Scarface, assessing the trio, slowly approached Mu Can, towering over him by two heads.
“Are you the new recruit?” Scarface asked with interest, as if seeing a new soldier in the Vanguard Camp was an amusing affair.
“If by new recruit you an soone who just joined the Vanguard Camp, then yes, I am,” Mu Can replied, looking up at him.
It was not a big deal; an Alchemy Master, even in the army, couldn’t be looked down upon by anyone, not to ntion his two companions, each with their own unique skills. Plus, Wang Cai, who was proficient in Arrays, just the three of them alone could form a fighting squadron.
“Good, do you know what the Vanguard Camp stands for?” Scarface inquired, laughing heartily at Mu Can.
Mu Can shook his head; he didn’t yet have a rough understanding of the situations within the Trial World, let alone this military camp.
“Tell them, what is the Vanguard Camp?” Scarface ordered the soldiers around him.
“Fight to the death, we are the vanguard,” the n shouted collectively, seemingly with all the strength they could muster.
“I’ll tell you, the Vanguard Camp is the place in the whole army where it’s easiest to earn military rit, but also where the death rate is the highest. There are no rules here; the only rule is that strength reigns supre,” Scarface explained seriously to Mu Can.
Mu Can looked at Scarface, whose strength was two levels higher than Da Zhuang. After a mont’s thought, Mu Can suddenly stood up.
“I challenge you!”
Those words, once spoken, plunged the scene into a silence that was rapidly replaced by uproarious laughter.
“Ha-ha, we must have heard wrong; this lad wants to challenge the boss?”
“Poor little guy; it seems you’ll be spending your first month in the Vanguard Camp in bed.”
“A calf not fearing the tiger? Where did the General find such a joke?”
Scarface swept a displeased gaze around, and the laughter gradually ceased.
“He’s stronger than you all; at least he has the courage to challenge . What about you? What have you done recently?” Scarface said with discontent.
A bunch of burly n imdiately swallowed any retorts; although they might not voice their discontent, they surely felt it.
Everyone in the Vanguard Camp knew one thing: who the boss of Vanguard Camp was, and still challenging him? Plenty of prior examples were well known.
“Scarface, he was introduced by General Chang Ming, so go easy,” said the soldier who had guided them and who had remained through the commotion, now stepping in as things seed to get out of hand.
He didn’t want the newcors sent by General Chang Ming to end up incapacitated by Scarface, who was notoriously fierce throughout the camp.
With his strength, he was more than capable of vying for a General’s position in the Empire, but he chose to linger here as the Commander of the Vanguard Camp.
“Don’t worry,” Scarface remarked, looking at Mu Can and his companions with a new perspective, seemingly due to General Chang Ming’s referral.
“You want to challenge ?” Scarface looked at Mu Can with renewed interest; it had been many years since anyone dared to challenge him in the Vanguard Camp.
He couldn’t even rember when the last failure was.
“Mm, three against three. General, please choose your n,” Mu Can confird with a nod.
With his Elixirs, Wang Cai’s Arrays, and the strengths of both Ye Feng and Da Zhuang, they were not afraid to face the opponent in the slightest.
