Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 567

Chapter 567: They Got Wiped Out a Few Days Ago by Us

To large mercenary groups, the annual special forces competition wasn’t that scary to watch. But the smaller groups always had to work together to survive through this hard time. Otherwise, with ten of the most powerful countries in the world sending in their elite special forces for a chaotic battle, the moment a small mercenary group is discovered, they would only face annihilation. So, they must cooperate.

Every year, a lot of people would really die. Both the special forces and the mercenaries, casualties were inevitable.

But, only war and death could sharpen the best soldiers, and it also produced the best mercenaries!

However, the special forces backed by nations had better training and more advanced equipment. Putting aside actual capabilities, the special forces were at an overwhelming advantage with their equipment and weapons, so the mercenaries usually suffered a much higher casualty rate every year. After all, when it came to team cooperation abilities, solo capabilities, and strategies, the mercenaries were obviously no match for the special forces.

The special forces had dedicated brains to handle all the strategic planning, and the mercenaries were usually just hot-blooded and did whatever came to mind, so how could they be their match?

Another important thing was that the special forces all obeyed commands and valued commands above life, but in most cases, the mercenaries weren’t very well-disciplined.

This was also why Xu Cheng decided to emphasize obedience training when it came to the new recruits.

During the day, Xu Cheng was helping out those engineers with using the equipment left behind by Falcon to directly make the diamond mine into Hawking’s test base.

Hawking was originally overjoyed, but Xu Cheng added, “The diamonds won’t be managed by you, don’t worry.”

Then, the old guy became a bit grumpy, feeling not as motivated to work anymore.

Xu Cheng also dragged out Mario and the others as hard laborers to do the heavy lifting. Those guys weren’t very happy too, asking why they had to do so much heavy-lifting work.

But, Xu Cheng tempted them and said, “So we can buy more firearms.”

Alright. No need to say more.

Seeing how Mario directly picked up four big bags, it was clear how much he loved firearms. The others were no exceptions either. They finally found a good place to call home, and obviously they were motivated to work hard to get more firearms to better protect this place.

On the sentry tower, Luo Yi saw a few cars stop before their gate and raise their flag, signaling something. Vala, who was more experienced, told Luo Yi, “They want to visit and have a chat with us.”

Luo Yi shouted at Xu Cheng who wasn’t too far away, “Big Brother Cheng, some mercenary group is here for a visit, should I let them in?”

Xu Cheng: “Sure, let them in.”

Luo Yi waved, and Lin Dong opened the gate from below.

Five cars drove in one after another. It was a team of thirty.

They came into a house and greeted Xu Cheng with big smiles. “I heard the Falcon Clan is backed by the Polar Bears. We’ve always respected the name, and for this ‘winter’, do you mind if we stay under your umbrella?”

Their faces were filled with enthusiasm, the typical brown-nosing kind.

However, Xu Cheng and the others didn’t smile with them.

After feeling the awkward silence briefly, the clan leader quickly remedied the situation. “I heard the Falcon Clan is one of the top tier clans in the Land of Mercenaries, and even the big Dragon Clan respects you. We just came into the Land of Mercenaries not long ago, but we’ve learned quite a lot of its rules and stories. We’ve also heard a lot of legendary stories of the Falcon Clan, so we came here wanting to join you. Would the Falcon Clan still be looking for new recruits?”

Still, no one from Xu Cheng’s side smiled. They all looked at them oddly. That barbaric Mario was about to vent his anger and slam the table, but he was stopped by a look from Xu Cheng.

This made the visitors even more uncertain about Xu Cheng’s thoughts. They were just there, not knowing whether they should keep standing or sit down. Only a few of them had guns on them due to how poor they were. If they were to really get into a conflict with a big group of armed men, they really stood no chance.

“Drink some water first and quench your thirst.” Xu Cheng saw the atmosphere was a bit tense so he tried to ease it a bit.

The boss of that team let out a breath of relief and he immediately raised the cup and began drinking.

At this time, Xu Cheng suddenly said out of the blue, “We are the Deviant Corp, not Falcon.”

Puff.

At least three people across the floor were caught off guard and almost choked on their saliva.

Uhh… Now that was a bit awkward.

“You… you guys aren’t Falcon?” that boss hesitantly asked.

Xu Cheng shook his head. “Nope.”

He gestured, and Li Wei took out the flag that belonged to the Deviant Corp and said, “We are the Deviant Corp.”

The others across the floor looked at the flag, and after being certain that they’ve never seen it before, they politely smiled. “The logo is pretty good, but we’ve just never heard of such a name before.”

Xu Cheng was quite frank. “We just formed not long ago and only had one battle so our name isn’t out there yet.”

“Just formed?” The boss of the other clan exchanged a look with his guys, and his face began to show a hint of disgust. “Then you guys are about the same as us. How many armed personnel do you have?”

Xu Cheng: “9 right now.”

“Sorry, sorry, we got the wrong place.” At this time, a guy began talking, “Boss Creel, we got the wrong address. We are looking for the Falcon Clan.”

Boss Creel slightly nodded to Xu Cheng to express his apology, and they all began walking out. “Then sorry, we got the wrong place. We will take our leave now.”

At this time, Mario said, “But if you guys want to find a clan to work together for the winter, then you can still come to us, we still have the capabilities.”

Xu Cheng curiously asked, “What do you mean by winter?”

Zhang Xiu on his side began explaining to him, “It’s a metaphor for the tough time of survival when all the different countries’ special forces get sent in to use us as practice dummies. Those independent mercenaries and smaller clans would either find a big clan to take them in or group together to get through the ‘winter’ together. That way, they could at least increase their chances of surviving against the attacks of other nations.”

Xu Cheng suddenly realized.

The other side scoffed at Mario’s words. “You guys only have 9 people, forming an alliance with you is equal to just being independent, and you guys might even end up relying on us. Never mind, we will still go to find Falcon.”

Boss Creel: “I’m incredibly sorry, we just came here following the map, and we thought this was Falcon’s territory, but it turned out that we made a mistake. We are very sorry for the inconvenience.”

Then, they decided to leave.

Xu Cheng also didn’t force them to stay and had Luo Yi walk them out.

As they walked towards the gate, they saw a bonfire and it was burning a couple of the Falcon Clan’s flags.

“Isn’t this Falcon’s flags? I recognize it,” someone pointed at the burning flags and said.

Luo Yi said, “Oh, yeah they are. But they got wiped out by us a few days ago. That was also the only battle we’ve had. This place was indeed theirs, you guys didn’t get the wrong address. But now, it belongs to us. Now, this is the Deviant Corp’s territory.”

The guys of this small clan were all shocked as their bodies trembled. But, at that moment, they were already sent out of the gate.
