Chapter 51: Catch a Whole Nest of Army Corps Commanders and Elite Troopers, Burn Them With Fire, Shock Them With Lightning!
“Hey hey hey!” Jiang Tea Tea called three times in a row. She and the others all turned their eyes toward Huang Da Zhuang: “Big Dog Huang, I really did not expect it. You actually know how to play. This idea is great!”
To sneak into the enemy’s ranks, become one of them, use a few words to make the enemy be their own cannon fodder, and then pick up the leftovers afterward – not bad at all. Very, very good.
Sui Xuan Chu nodded in a hurry, full of praise: “Yes, yes, yes, Huang Da Zhuang, you can do it. You are amazing. We will follow your idea. Anyone who disagrees, I will beat them up.”
Cheng Xiao Ting raised his hand: “I agree. I agree so much that if this place were not so serious, I would take off my shoes and raise my feet to agree too.”
Cheng Lin Yue, Yan Yu, and the others had no objections. They all agreed that Huang Da Zhuang’s idea was solid.
Huang Da Zhuang had only spoken along their line of thought and had a flash of inspiration. He never thought all seven of his teammates would agree at once.
He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, shy and a bit bashful: “If everyone likes this idea, then I can relax.”
“But let me say the ugly words first. I am Sister Tea’s little fanboy and flunky. When we split into groups, I want to be in her group.”
Jiang Tea Tea waved her hand with a smile: “That is a small thing. Come here, Big Dog Huang, Big Wolf Cheng, perk up your dog ears and wolf ears and listen carefully. Where are the nearest military academy students and drill instructor teams to us right now?”
Huang Da Zhuang and Cheng Xiao Ting were very good at carrying out orders. As soon as Jiang Tea Tea finished talking, both of them perked up their ears and lay down on the ground.
With one Great Demon Stage core, as long as Jiang Tea Tea stirred her spiritual power, her sight could reach farther, her hearing could be sharper, and her perception could cover a larger range.
But she knew that everything she was doing now was for the Fake Young Miss. She needed the spirit of teamwork. She had to let each person use their own strengths. She could not do everything by herself.
Giving others a chance to perform and letting them feel valued was the only way to have steady and healthy growth.
After listening, Huang Da Zhuang and Cheng Xiao Ting got up from the ground: “Within three kilometers around us, there are no drill instructor teams or military academy students.”
Jiang Tea Tea thought for a moment: “If there are no drill instructor teams or military academy students, then we will change into drill instructor uniforms, find a place to rest, and start again tomorrow morning. How about that?”
If they could not find targets, they did not need to force it. It was only the first day of the first round of the Supremacy Tournament. The days were long. They should first build up their strength.
They put on the drill instructor uniforms, drill instructor light-brain wrist terminals, and drill instructor space knob storage devices.
Then they took out war paint of different colors from the space knob storage devices and smeared it in stripes over their faces, covering their original skin color and leaving only their eyes showing.
After that, the eight of them picked three thick trees whose trunks would take several people to encircle. They climbed up and lay on the branches. They sprayed insect repellent on themselves and fell asleep in the trees.
The light hanging high in the sky was too bright. Jiang Tea Tea picked a large leaf, put it over her palm-sized face, and used it as a cover.
On the screen, Chong Ming watched them. He said: “Deputy Officer Ai, withdraw the lighting.”
Deputy Officer Ai answered: “Yes, Commander in Chief.”
The suspended lights were taken down. The primeval forest over a thousand kilometers around them fell into darkness once more. Only the bright moonlight shone through the heavy leaves, sprinkling scattered specks of light.
Jiang Tea Tea had been sleeping with her head raised. Now she lay sideways, took off the leaf that covered her face, relaxed her body, and drew in the nutrients from the air.
Each of the thirty Army Corps commanders had brought ten people, following the location coordinates on their light-brain wrist terminals. In the dark tropical jungle, they chased and fought each other for points.
The next morning, before the sun rose, the sky grew pale. The forest was full of fog, and the visibility was very low.
Jiang Tea Tea was jolted awake by Cheng Lin Yue’s shout: “Sister Tea, Sui Xuan Chu, Huang Da Zhuang, wake up, get up, look at the light-brain wrist terminal, the thirty Army Corps commanders and 300 elite troopers!”
Jiang Tea Tea and the others sat up, flipped over, and quickly opened their light-brain wrist terminals. They were not scared before they looked. Once they looked, they were shocked. Including the thirty Army Corps commanders, of the 330 elite troopers, only 298 were left.
“Wait, what is going on? Besides us, there are other people also farming points off the Army Corps commanders and the elite troopers?”
“In just one night, 330 dropped to 298. Thirty-two got farmed. If we wait a few more nights, we will not even need to do anything. Other people will finish them all.”
“No way, we cannot let others farm them. We have to farm them. If we blow up all thirty Army Corps commanders and the other 300 elite troopers, we will become the military academy students the Commander in Chief pays the most attention to in this Supremacy Tournament.”
Jiang Tea Tea watched them, full of fighting spirit and staring at the light-brain wrist terminals. She said in a low voice: “Since you want to blow up the Army Corps commanders, go find military academy students and drill instructor teams to work with.”
Sui Xuan Chu and the others answered in unison: “Okay!”
Once they said it, they did it.
Nutrient solution served as breakfast. Each person drank two packs until they were full.
Jiang Tea Tea pretended to drink but actually threw hers away. She could not drink any of it.
The eight of them split into two groups and stepped onto their ground hover sleds to go find drill instructors and military academy students.
Led by Sui Xuan Chu, one four-person squad went to look for military academy students. After five days of hard work, they found a five-person squad from the National Air Defense Military Imperial Academies and took them out. They put on their uniforms and then tricked four squads from the National Stellar Defense Academy, a total of sixty-eight military academy students, into going with them to farm points off the Army Corps commanders.
Led by Jiang Tea Tea, the other four-person squad went to look for drill instructor teams. With her sharp tongue and smooth talk, she tricked ninety-seven drill instructors from the Third Army Corps, the Eighteenth Army Corps, and the Twelfth Army Corps into joining them to farm points off the Army Corps commanders.
The thirty Army Corps commanders, while farming points off each other, did not manage to finish off their rivals. Instead, the men they brought with them were farmed. Some lost one person, some lost two.
Without any coordinates for members of the “Kill the Other Twenty-Nine Military Academies” squad, they wandered like headless flies through a tropical rainforest full of aberrant beasts and poisonous insects.
Besides being farmed by other Army Corps commanders, they also had to be farmed by military academy students and drill instructor teams. When they got attacked, they were not allowed to fight back. All they could do was dodge and run.
The thirty Army Corps commanders were not young anymore, and every one of them was strong. Other than their time as new recruits and the bitter training days under the Commander in Chief, embarrassing moments were very rare in their lives. They had never been chased around like dogs like they were now.
Maybe they were too embarrassed. The Army Corps commanders who happened to bump into each other finally decided to shake hands and make peace. They stopped farming each other and united against a common enemy, choosing to search together for the eight members of the “Kill the Other Twenty-Nine Military Academies” squad.
Jiang Tea Tea and Sui Xuan Chu’s two squads, leading the military academy students and drill instructor teams, arrived just in time to surround the Eighteenth Army Corps, the Twenty-Ninth Army Corps, the First Army Corps, and the Third Army Corps – four Army Corps commanders and thirty-two people in total.
Ye Ying had just formed an alliance with the other three Army Corps commanders when he was trapped like a turtle in a jar. He laughed from anger and said to the other three commanders: “This is really something. Military academy students and drill instructor teams have joined together to surround and block us?”
“Yes, it is really upside down. The First Army Corps drill instructors, the Eighteenth Army Corps drill instructors, the Third Army Corps drill instructors, and they are all here to surround us Army Corps commanders.”
Jiang Tea Tea lowered her voice and made it rough, like a male voice, stirring Ye Ying up as she shouted: “Commanders, you cannot blame us. Killing you is worth fifty points each. Killing drill instructors is only worth ten points.”
“We all want to win the Supremacy Tournament. After thinking it over, it is still better to farm points off you. When we farm you, you can only take the hits. You cannot fight back. If you fight back, you die. If you fight back, you lose!”
After her shout, the other drill instructors joined in: “Commander, you are the commander of the Third Army Corps. I am a drill instructor of the Third Army Corps. Just let me kill you and farm the points. My points are also the glory of our Third Army Corps.”
“Right, right, Brother Eagle, instead of letting other people kill you and take the points, let us from the First Army kill you. No need to let the fat water flow into other people’s fields.”
Ye Ying and the Third Army Corps commander cursed their own drill instructors: “You little brats, instead of going to farm points off other Army Corps commanders, you come to farm us. You even dare to stand here talking big, asking us to raise our hands and surrender. You are really asking for a beating.”
“Yes, they are asking for a beating. Even if we get eliminated today, we have to beat them so hard their teeth fall out, so they know how powerful we are. Come on, charge!”
After the two Army Corps commanders spoke, they and their elite troopers were about to charge forward. Jiang Tea Tea took a step back and shouted in a harsh voice: “They are not charging over to hit us. They are trying to run. Hurry up and surround them. Block all exits. Use your supernatural abilities. Burn them with fire, shock them with electricity, strike them with lightning!”
