Chapter 861: The Best Mercenary Regiment
Feng Tianlan adjusted herself into a comfortable position. “I just asked him about what Xi Jin wanted to know when he went looking for him. Besides, he just had to tell me about our future.”
After hearing what Feng Tianlan said, Si Mobai frowned. He then hugged her tightly. “Lan’er is so great.”
Feng Tianlan smiled. She then yawned and closed her eyes. “Let’s sleep. Mei’er said that they have already chosen new members. I have to go take a look at the mercenary regiment tomorrow. I must think of a way to train them properly and make them loyal toward the United Mercenary Regiment.”
Si Mobai replied with a soft “uh-huh.” He then gave her a gentle kiss on the top of her head. “Go to sleep. I will figure it out for you.”
…
Feng Tianlan raised her head and looked at the hundreds of people in front of her. They consisted of both men and women between the ages of fifteen and twenty-five. Their eyes were filled with anticipation and hope. However, some were lowering their heads. They obviously felt inferior.
Mei’er was off to the side explaining the situation. “Some of them were bought. They were slaves. Some were driven to a corner. They had no choice but to consider committing suicide. There are also some who are here because they passed the test.”
Feng Tianlan replied with a soft “uh-huh.” She raised her head as she looked at them and said, “This is the United Mercenary Regiment. Although we are a small group, we still pay great attention to the rules and tests. Therefore, for the next three months, you will be participating in an outdoor test in the Forest of Death.”
After hearing what Feng Tianlan said, the crowd gasped as they raised her heads and gave her shocked looks.
“The Forest of Death?” Someone raised his head and asked Feng Tianlan, “That place is known as the hell of the human world. Are you trying to test us or ask us to die?”
“If you follow me, I will bring you to the peak of the continent. However, to be at the peak, you must face death bravely and make a path for yourself by fighting. Otherwise, if I were to just accept you no matter what, you would be nothing but a heap of loose sand. You would easily be blown away by a gust of wind, not to mention the type of winds you would encounter standing on the peak.”
Feng Tianlan raised her head and looked at the man, who was still dissatisfied. She then continued in a deep voice, saying, “Of course, you are welcome to leave now. This is fear for one’s life, and this is nothing to be embarrassed about. No one will laugh at you.”
The man raised his head and looked at Feng Tianlan. Her handsome face looked as if it was coated with a layer of golden light under the sun. Even though she was younger than him, for some reason, he suddenly felt as if the young man who was giving a speech in front of him was born to be a Prime Supreme who would look down on the world from its peak.
He thought this young man would mock him for being cowardly. He never thought that he would be so understanding.
“The United Mercenary Regiment is currently the smallest regiment. However, I have the ability to make it the best mercenary regiment on the whole continent. Whether you can be a member of this mercenary regiment depends on your next test.”
“What will our test be like in the Forest of Death?” After listening to her speech, the man was moved. Perhaps he had a different opinion of her after hearing her say that fearing for his life was nothing to be embarrassed about, and he wanted to give it a try.
Feng Tianlan raised her head and curled her lips. “It’s very simple. It doesn’t matter what you do. As long as you can survive in the Forest of Death for three months, you pass the test.”
“All right,” the man replied, followed by others.
Feng Tianlan glanced at him. It was obvious that some of them were following his lead.
