The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 124
Chapter 124 Meet Each Other in the Middle of the Road
Li Hao was the first to walk past Yifan. He already had a black rock dagger in his hand. It was not very eye-catching. He had never seen such a dagger before, but he had seen such a weapon made of this material.
He was well aware of the value of this weapon. He had only seen it in Yifan’s guild. He had never seen it elsewhere or in the military. Obviously, this material was extremely unusual.
Li Li happily stroked the dagger in her hand. What a pleasant surprise. He was more knowledgeable than Li Hao. She clearly knew that this was a weapon unique to the Yifan team, and she also clearly knew that the length of this weapon should be considered a dagger.
Everyone else filed past Yifan. Each of them had a sheathless black rock dagger in their hands. Most of them were military warriors, so they weren’t completely amateurs in terms of weapons. They were all knowledgeable experts.
This short sword is something that you can tell from the start. If you don’t talk about anything else, just look at the weapons on the instructors’ waists. Looking at the materials of this short sword, you will know its value.
Everyone returned to their team after receiving the rewards. Yifan said again, “Alright, the rewards have been given to you. Their names are Soul Devouring. I hope that you will not disgrace this name.”
Twenty people said in unison, “Yes, Instructor!”
“Alright! Then, let’s begin the first training session today. The 100km limit cross-country training will begin. Now! Immediately! Immediately! Run!”
“The last 20 will receive special punishment tomorrow.”
As soon as Yifan said those words, 1000 people howled and ran out like a gust of wind.
The word’punishment ‘popped out from the mouths of ordinary instructors, and it definitely did not have such a powerful effect.
They clearly remembered that Yifan’s so-called punishment had caused more than 30 young masters to become food for zombies and mutated beasts.
Everyone’s hearts were shrouded in a layer of gloom. Perhaps this was really a life-threatening punishment. Even if it wasn’t that serious, they would definitely have to peel off their skin if they didn’t die!
Whoever dared to touch this mess would run all the way to the peak, and no one would dare to be lazy anymore.
After these trainees ran out, Yifan first used his rock power to condense all the bunkers on the ground into a single path. Then, without hesitation, he quickly compressed all the rocks together and transformed them into a gigantic arena. This would be the arena for the final assessment of Plan Dawn.
The huge rectangular pit was also leveled by Yifan, and more than 30 pairs of noble father and son were buried here.
Following that, Yi Fan signaled to the two members to send the injured back to the camp for a day of rest.
‘”Go back to the camp and rest. Zhang Liang, Wang Yang, and the other two of you will lead the training here with three members each.”
“Ruoxue, Zhou Xin, Qiangzi, let’s bring the other uninjured members to the civilian area. It’s time for the recruitment there to begin!”
Yi Fan quickly made arrangements, and everyone immediately moved. Soon, the training ground that had just been in a mess regained its calm.
At 9.30 a.m. On 31 May 2030, in a civilian broadcast room.
Yi Fan, Ji Ruoxue, Zhou Xin, Qiang Zi, and the others each brought a member to form four recruitment teams.
However, as soon as they arrived in this civilian area to the west, the unusually hot atmosphere in the civilian area shocked Yifan.
The arrival of the eight caused a warm welcome from the people in the commoners’ area, and applause filled the sky from the commoners’ area.
Yifan led Ji Ruoxue, Zhou Xin, Qiangzi, and the rest of the team to the broadcast room. These commoners applauded crazily. Some applauded. They were venting their emotions. They were happy that such a person was from a commoner’s background like them.
This background gave them a natural sense of identity, and when they found out about the treatment and conditions of his recruitment, they were incomparably delighted.
Countless people who met the requirements were forced to participate in his selection. Especially in the hearts of countless women, Yifan’s recruitment document seemed to stick to their hearts. After the apocalypse, they were no longer recognized. They could feel Yifan’s recognition of them.
From this moment onwards, they were willing to sacrifice themselves for Yi Fan, who appreciated them and was willing to nurture them to give them a chance.
Indeed, it is not without reason that Yifan is so popular in this civilian area.
In fact, the people of this civilian area had heard of Yifan yesterday because he had beaten up those beasts here yesterday, causing the people of the civilian area to look at him in a new light.
But at that time, they were still strangers to him.
In the morning, soldiers of the military began to paste up notices. The general meaning of the notices was.
There was an outsider named Zhu Yifan who had been promoted to senior colonel because of his outstanding contributions. He would choose 10,000 civilians from the two civilian areas and become his subordinates.
Requirements are very relaxed, 15 years old and above, and healthy, both men and women can register, as for whether to choose, that is two things.
As for the treatment, it was good to be bluffing. Once they were selected, they would take care of their meals and arrange for them to enter the soldiers’ dormitory. Furthermore, each of them would be given a set of individual combat equipment.
This seems to be deceiving people. This is about food and clothing, and the treatment of having a branch room. Moreover, both men and women are allowed. Since when has the military been so kind? Are you sure it’s not a fake advertisement?
When the military came to recruit, they had always forcefully recruited. Moreover, they had always wanted strong men and never wanted women.
The women in the civilian areas couldn’t sit still anymore. After the apocalypse, most of the women had become accessories to the men and tools to vent their Yu.
This Zhu Yifan actually recruited a female soldier. That’s great. The women were completely enraged. Has this senior colonel gone crazy? He actually dared to ask for a female soldier?
Didn’t he know that women were born weaker than men in terms of physical fitness?
Will Yifan be the kind of person who doesn’t even know common sense? Of course not. In fact, women are indeed inferior to men in some respects, but in some respects, it is impossible without women.
Let’s not talk about anything else. There’s only one thing. Can you have a baby with ten thousand men when it comes to giving birth?
However, if there were men and women, it would be different. They were no longer just 10,000 warriors, they would be countless warriors.
The team that Yifan chose was to build a base and defend it. Apart from fighting strength, they also needed to maintain their strength.
Moreover, Yifan felt that after proper guidance and training, women might not necessarily be inferior to men. This depended on one’s innate talent and hard work.
This senior colonel’s recruitment of female soldiers was not the biggest reason why the atmosphere in the civilian area was so lively. The reason why the civilian area was so lively was because they had just received news 10 minutes ago.
This senior colonel named Zhu Yifan had actually killed all of the beasts from yesterday. There were even rumors that this senior colonel named Zhu Yifan was very powerful and had a strong backer. It was said that he had just killed the notorious Flower Gathering Gang from top to bottom. Even the leaders behind the Flower Gathering Gang had been uprooted.
At this moment, the two civilian areas had just received the news, and the entire civilian area was boiling. They remembered the evil deeds of the dozens of half-grown boys, the dead relatives, and the pornographic Hui broadcasts that came out of the broadcast room from time to time.
Some were overjoyed, some were excited, some were making a fuss, some were hiding in a dark corner crying, and some were spreading the news of the beast’s death everywhere, as lively as a festival.
The people in the commoners’ area in the west were extremely lucky to see Yi Fan’s true self.
After applause, Yifan finally walked into the broadcast room.
In the broadcast room, Duan De looked at Yifan who was sitting in front of him with deep admiration in his eyes. That’s right, he admired this senior colonel very much.
He didn’t expect that this person would actually dare to slaughter all the members of the Flower Gathering Gang. It was even said that the father behind them had been slaughtered. He was so domineering, so decisive, and so satisfying.
Duan De was a nobody. Before the apocalypse, he was a security guard. The reason why he carried a little ruffianism was because he had once worked in the underworld when he was young. However, he did not go up or down. Afterwards, he just quit Jianghu after getting married.
However, there was still some fame in the underworld of C City. After the apocalypse, he and a few of his brothers stumbled to the base. However, inside the base city, it was not a paradise. They were all taken to the civilian area. He was better off because he was lucky to awaken a strengthened ability and was taken care of.
The other brothers in the Dao were miserable. They lived a life of starvation and hunger. From 13 days ago, a group of organizations called the Flower Gathering Gang had appeared here.
They were a group of half-grown children. They played unscrupulously in the civilian areas. They caused many people and families to be destroyed, and also made the already depressed civilian areas even more depressed. If this continued, something big would happen one day.
Duan De was very surprised that no one was able to care about them. Later on, after he asked around, he realized that it wasn’t that no one was able to care about them. There was no one who could care about them. Standing behind them together was equivalent to more than half of the upper echelons of the entire military.
However, this newly arrived and newly appointed Great Colonel dared to interfere, and he really managed to interfere, no! They could not be said to be in charge, but to be directly destroyed by violence.
How strong and courageous would it take to do this?
Apart from admiration, Duan De was also secretly shocked and grateful.
As a civilian who later joined the military, standing in his position, he had always been in incomparable pain. His two predecessors had died in this matter, and they did not even interfere. They only asked one more question, causing the entire family to be executed.
He was incomparably grateful to Yifan for ending his pain. His appearance, his uprooting this time, was too domineering, too inspiring. He let out a sigh of relief for everyone who was a commoner.
As the military, it was only natural for the strong to exploit the weak.
However, there was a limit to this exploitation. If it was too excessive, then sooner or later, something big would happen.
After this time, I believe no one will come to the civilian area to openly act wildly. If they come, they will come in time. They will also remember the fate of those people yesterday.
It was because he had said that commoners were not inferior to anyone else!
