Bringing up the worst possible issue at the wrong time. Indeed, Vivian had promised Greedy Wolf that the loser would present Bergheide with a big gift during the strategic deployment. In the beginning, a group of generals desperately tried to stop Greedy Wolf from acting rashly. At this point, Vivian suddenly felt she had been cunningly deceived by a group of old men.
However, Sky City was also the great stage to test High Commanders. Vivian gave a slight smile, "Alright, I'll submit a strategic report as soon as possible."
While she had overestimated her charm, she had also underestimated Feng Yi's will power. Of course, the Federal Army was also deliberately testing Vivian. Rumors were just that, and her command skills may not be as excellent as they appeared. They would need to see the horse run to verify the rumors.
Time flowed like water, a month passed in the blink of an eye. The Blazing Legion had been remarkably calm throughout. This tranquility was surprisingly unsettling, and no one knew what the Blazing Legion had been through. Because Feng Yi had completely sealed off the Blazing Legion's training field until a week before they were set to embark. Only then did they open it to the public for the first time.
When the gate opened, the crowd of military journalists was hit with the overpowering stench of sweat. As a beam of morning light illuminated the soldiers' dark and toned skin, one could scarcely believe their eyes. Those men emanated an even stronger aura of danger and defiance than before, their eyes as sharp as knives. Both the men and women had undergone a significant physical transformation within the month.
If the journalists couldn't believe their eyes, then an hour before, the Blazing Warriors truly couldn't believe their ears.
Legion Commander Feng Yi personally conveyed a five-day leave for all. The popular consensus was a combination of work and rest. During this period, they could leave freely, return late or not at all, but they had to remember that causing chaos was prohibited. If someone provoked them, they would have to endure. If the provocation was intolerable, he instructed his soldiers to go against their antagonizer, stating that the Blazing Legion didn't dread causing trouble. If anything happened, they were told to look for John. And if John couldn't fix it, wasn't Brother Feng around?
However, Feng Yi repeatedly instructed his soldiers to not broadcast his identity. It was more comfortable being an ordinary soldier than being the Legion Commander. At least, aside from a few people in the Military Department, the general public was still unfamiliar with the Blazing Legion and their supreme leader.
Upon hearing the news, the soldiers were so excited that they could barely contain themselves. The first thing they thought of was using their post allowances to buy alcohol.
During this period, they had experienced rigorous physical training and gravity testing, enhanced mecha battle training. This was indeed the final dawn before stepping onto the battlefield. The men put on their favorite casual clothes, revealing their dark and sturdy arms, the mark of their journey through hell. This was proof that they were soldiers who had truly endured hellish trials. They had completely shed their downtrodden past, transforming into real warriors capable of holding their own.
The women too, had put on their prettiest casual attire. Their personalities varied and their spirits were high. The wheat-colored skin of their muscular bodies radiated endless power, like mother leopards bristling with spines.
In just a month, everyone had undergone numerous hellish tortures. Those experiences, once endured, could never be forgotten. Bathed in the gentle sunlight, they emerged anew with a longing for the future that forever resonated within them.
By nightfall, the lowest floor of the Gallia Club was absolutely packed. The decadent neon lights and the resonating laughter from the men complimented each other perfectly. The dancers all stood up, welcoming tonight's most distinguished guests…
And who were the distinguished guests that evening? Of course, it was the Blazing Warriors. The onlookers who didn't know what was going on thought that a group brawl was about to break out. However, everything had already been arranged by John.
The truth is, consumption at the underground level of Gallia might not be that expensive. There weren't luxurious decorations or endless Waltz for added elegance. Generally, only high-ranking individuals would gather on the upper level. However, the upper level also didn't have the charm of the underground level. Here, there was draft beer, barbeque, laughter of the men and the sound of countless glasses clinking together. Every time night fell, weary people would swarm to the underground beer plaza. Among them were office workers, petty traders, or sunburnt warriors who were working hard elsewhere.
The term 'warrior' had now become an unwritten rule for bounty workers. Since the foundation of the Bounty Tribe, many financial groups and private enterprises had followed suit. The two most famous ones in the Solar System were the Dante Castle Club and the Nan Family Adventure Group. After finishing a day's worth of tasks, dragging a weary body to get a draft beer was the best reward. This was the haven for the working class to consume.
As the second-in-command of the Blazing Legion, John didn't care about footing the bill. He hauled Feng Yi into the venue without talking and ordered everyone who wanted to come to show up — the treat was on him that evening. As for those idiots who didn't want to come, it was their loss. The crowd burst into laughter when they heard John's words.
A female soldier immediately expressed her desire to marry John on the spot, proclaiming that he was too good to everyone else. John waved her off and told her to go cool down somewhere. He had grand ambitions to liberate Mardis, and he didn't have time for family affairs.
The somewhat aggrieved female soldier quickly ran into Feng Yi's arms to complain about her grievances. On her way out, she didn't forget to give John a hard kick, eliciting another round of laughter around her. Maybe during training, everyone's posts were different, but once they left the military camp, they were all brothers and sisters.
However, unbeknownst to them, this was just a play set up by John and a group of rogues. Someone came up with a cunning plan, and shockingly, it was a surprise attack that was successful. The female soldier instantly put Feng Yi into a chokehold.
Feng Yi raised both hands in surrender. He just wanted to join in the fun, so he gladly popped the cap off a bottle with his thumb, and in an instant, he finished a bottle of beer. He shook his head, not enough. Feng Yi wanted to take revenge on the female soldier, but John instantly stopped him by slamming the table. John stated that if anyone wanted to bully his soldiers, they would have to get through him first.
So, you guys were ganging up on me? Alright, let's go then. Feng Yi didn't back down. Remember, a real man never chickens out. He made eye contact with a couple of familiar warriors around him. Unfortunately, he ended up fighting alone after sending that signal.
Was the world conspiring against him? Well then, bring it on. After fighting for less than 30 minutes, Feng Yi found an opportunity to slip away. No matter how high his alcohol tolerance was, he couldn't withstand this onslaught.
Once he staggered outside, his drunkenness disappeared. He smiled to himself, leaving the rest of the time to his soldiers. He still had military plans to consider and perfect. The countdown to support Sky City had already begun. He couldn't waste any more time here.
Through television programs, Feng Yi was able to gather some preliminary frontline warfare information. He had to say, representing the military's position, Sky Shadow had an admirable record. The Sky Shadow Legion, which he led, had captured over three regiments of imperial soldiers. The only regret was that they hadn't encountered any powerful enemies. At least, based on the interviews on Light Screen TV programs, many netizens from the Federation believed that Sky Shadow had the ability to compete with the ace. Remember, he wasn't even 30 yet.
