Chapter 249 A World Of Strength Supremacy!
After dealing with the Abyss Raiders, Chen Yu looked at Sophia.
At this moment, Sophia had her eyes tightly closed, her head tilted to one side.
Her breathing was long and smooth, indicating that she had been scared unconscious.
"With this kind of quality, how did she become a soldier?" Chen Yu frowned.
As a Rank Three warrior, she was actually scared unconscious by the enemy. This was unimaginable for professionals on Blue Star.
Back in the ranking match instance, there were examinees who were caught by the clone of the Demon God. Even though they knew they had no hope of survival, they still tried various ways to escape or launch a final attack at the last moment.
Even the soft-hearted female professionals would at most not be able to bear watching others die in a tragic manner.
When it was their turn, they would still face fear, seek a way out, or counterattack before dying.
This was the first time Chen Yu had seen someone faint in front of the enemy.
Chen Yu summoned the Heart Phase Xiao Miao and threw a water ball at Sophia's head.
"Wu~"
Sophia slowly woke up, her expression confused.
"Am I dead? Is this the afterlife?"
"Ah? Captain, are you dead too?"
"It's okay, I won't blame you..."
Chen Yu furrowed his brows.
"But, it's a pity. I still have regrets in the mortal world, I couldn't avenge my family..."
"Smack—"
A crisp sound rang out as a five-finger mark appeared on Sophia's face.
Sophia immediately covered her face in pain and let out a cry.
The pain stimulated her and she fully regained consciousness.
"Are you awake, Miss?" Chen Yu said coldly.
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry, Captain!"
Sophia stood up straight and apologized in a panic.
At the same time, her gaze swept over to the Abyss Raiders' caravan.
The carriage was still there, but the Fallen and the demonic warhorses were nowhere to be seen.
Before she could carefully consider the current situation, Chen Yu's voice came again.
"You are a noble lady. Even if your family's territory is destroyed and you go to the rear, you can still live a good life."
"Do you remember what made you become a soldier?"
"It's hatred, Captain!" Sophia answered loudly. "I want to personally kill the Fallen and demons and avenge my loved ones!"
"In that case, how did you act when facing the Fallen?" Chen Yu sneered.
"Just now, I didn't restrict your movements."
"You are a Rank Three warrior, you have the ability to resist."
"But you closed your eyes and waited for death!"
"You even fainted from fear!"
"I..." Sophia looked ashamed.
"I won't judge whether your choice was correct or if you are suitable for battle."
"But!" Chen Yu's tone suddenly rose. "Since you chose to join the military."
"Then, please remember, you are no longer a noble lady, but a warrior, a avenger!"
"When facing the enemy, you can run away, you can fight to the death, but you must never give up and let the enemy slaughter you!"
"Even if it's the last moment, even if the enemy's blade has already chopped off your head, you must open your eyes wide and see clearly who is killing you!"
"If your mouth can still move, then use your last bit of strength to bite off a piece of their flesh!"
"Never mind, why am I telling you all this?" Chen Yu shook his head self-mockingly.
His experiences in his previous life made him realize how difficult it was to change a person.
So in this life, he never tried to persuade others.
Those whose opinions differ from his own are not worth paying attention to, and conflicts that cannot be resolved directly should be handled harmlessly.
Even Chen Yu himself didn't know why he had said so much to Sophia.
Clearly, Sophia was just an insignificant character, and after completing the trial, she would have no connection with him.
"Captain, I'm sorry, I will..." Sophia quickly made a promise.
Unfortunately, Chen Yu interrupted her with a waning interest.
"Yes, yes, you will."
"Enough of that, go check on the people in the car, they should still be alive."
"Yes, Captain."
Sophia fell silent for a moment and walked towards the carriage with a low mood.
Inside the carriage were ordinary villagers.
They were among the "goods" plundered by the raiders.
Some of the strong villagers had already regained consciousness.
However, they did not struggle or shout.
Those full of vitality might have had their heads smashed by the fallen ones on the spot and eaten as snacks.
After learning that they had been rescued, the villagers expressed their gratitude to Chen Yu and Sophia.
Chen Yu and Sophia sent these civilians to the nearest intact village.
Some people with status and position hoped that Chen Yu would escort them back to the city or their territory, promising to pay a high reward.
Naturally, Chen Yu did not agree to their requests and left directly after delivering them.
However, he did not return to the camp directly, but let Sophia go to another ambush location.
These small groups of Abyss raiders could provide a few more batteries, so as not to run out of energy during the upcoming major battle.
The nearest mission location to him was two intact villages where no trace of the Abyss raiders was found.
The team responsible for this mission target was organizing their defense, ready for battle.
Chen Yu did not disturb them and continued to the next location.
At the third target, a village, the team in charge was engaged in a fierce battle with the Abyss raiders.
This team arrived just in time, and the village had not been destroyed yet, with the villagers hiding.
A few strong villagers had joined the fight.
Without hesitation, Chen Yu controlled the bloodthirsty spirit and joined the battle.
After easily dealing with the enemies, he continued to the next location.
It took more than two days for Chen Yu to visit all sixty target points.
Along the way, he saw distress signals from other areas and went to rescue them, gaining some additional fallen ones.
After returning to the camp, Chen Yu went to the main tent of the military camp to submit the mission.
Just as he reached the entrance of the tent, the sergeant major walked over with a friendly smile.
"Lord Salando, you're finally back. Please, have a seat."
The sergeant major welcomed Chen Yu into the tent, brought a chair, and let him sit down.
Even in his address, he used honorifics.
Although the military system in this world was loose, the ranks were still distinct.
Soldier, captain, camp (sergeant major, knight commander), legion commander.
Each rank was divided into three stars.
Soldiers wore a four-pointed star badge on their chests, captains had a pentagram, camp commanders had a hexagram, and legion commanders had a multi-pointed star like a small sun.
On Chen Yu's armor, there was only a pentagram on his chest, indicating that he was a one-star captain.
The sergeant major had two hexagrams on his chest, which was a whole rank higher than Chen Yu's.
His respectful attitude towards Chen Yu was naturally for a reason.
Some of the teams that Chen Yu had helped had already returned and informed the sergeant major of Chen Yu's displayed strength.
On the battlefield, especially in the Transcendent world's battlefield, strength was the ultimate authority.
Those with exceptional strength would undoubtedly receive respect.
While reporting the situation, Chen Yu carefully recorded it with a quill pen and parchment.
After finishing, the sergeant major stood up and smiled at Chen Yu, saying, "Lord Salando, the legion commander has heard of your deeds and would like to meet you. Do you have time now?"
