Outside, Xiong Tai was working tirelessly, and several people returned to the conference room. This time, the action was clearly planned. But they also maintained their proper attitude of justice, so fortunately they were not taken advantage of, and Xiong Tai also got his money back, but he was accepting the punishment he deserved for his wrongdoings, and he wanted to Dyeing that kind of specially made paper is not an easy task, and it is likely that it will take more than ten hours to maintain such a punishment. But such a price should be enough for him to remember for a lifetime. Even a hunter would never be able to sustain so-called high-intensity exercise for several hours. After all, a person's Ultimate has an upper limit. Although his appearance is covered by flesh shells, those flesh shells are the symbols that can determine a person's future status and rights. The stronger he is, the better he will start in the future. High, there is no doubt about this. The words came back, but when they returned to the tent, the originally good meeting had been completely forgotten due to the disruption just now. There is no one here who can remind them. Everyone is in an awkward situation. They did not expect to be in such a situation. Everyone on one side looked at each other with wide eyes. Under the influence, they all knew what would happen next. Something happened. Freyr Sitting on the innermost bed, with his legs crossed to maintain a meditative posture, he seemed to have a trace of majesty. However, people who know him would never imagine that he is such a very serious person, and he is unwilling to show too much seriousness on his face. But now everyone is silent. What happened just now shocked everyone. The reason for not speaking is just to think better and think about the future development. The current situation seems really worrying. There is a squeaking sound of breathing outside, and Xiong Tai's breathing starts to get heavier. After half an hour, he finally got a little better, and the push-ups began to warm up his body. "Come on, do you have any other ideas about the current situation?" Freyr suddenly broke the silence and gestured.
"Well, I don't have any other ideas yet, but I know that our mission here will likely come to an end soon. After all, if the association remains stationed here for too long, the accumulated tasks and resources will eventually lead to a crisis of bankruptcy. So, from any perspective, the President will definitely find a way to send some people back while keeping a portion here. The current situation is uncertain, and if a series of war alerts arise, we can always call people back at that time. For now, it seems they just want those left behind to maintain numbers—one for waiting and the other to support the warriors of the Human Alliance here, avoiding any disputes," Mackey said.
Aside from Ross, Mackey was the only experienced member left in the team.
After all, Mackey had years of experience in executing missions. Although his thinking wasn't as sharp as Ross's—who appeared very young but was actually around twenty-seven or twenty-eight—he seemed to have considerable experience in missions and knowledge of some confidential operations.
It was just unfortunate that he had fallen to being picked up by them as a pillar of the team. Clearly, Mackey's methods were not as effective as Ross's.
However, due to his age advantage, Mackey had more considerations in various aspects.
Thus, his remarks were quite surprising. The other three looked at him with doubtful expressions. Mackey met their gazes and quickly added, "You might think I'm rambling, but I've been through a war mission before where all my companions perished. Back then, just like now, the warriors were in a state of siege and standoff. In such circumstances, unless the insects take further action first, we humans would predict their possible moves and act preemptively. The reason we've consistently defeated the Zerg isn't solely because of our unity; it's mainly due to our intelligence, technology, and our thinking. This is also why the Zerg has never been able to compete with us. To them, confronting us must seem utterly inconceivable."
"I see. If that's the case, then that would be great," Freyr nodded in agreement.
They continued their patrol according to schedule; however, the situation felt very calm—there were no strange occurrences like during the night, and everything was peaceful.
If this peace could last for at least a month, then it would be reasonable for the association to consider reducing troop presence in the near future. Even so, there are ways for humans to defend their cities should unexpected situations arise.
Once reinforcements arrive at the scene, there shouldn't be any issues.
The possibility of a city falling would only occur under significant disasters or sudden invasions by the Zerg.
The combination of these two scenarios actually presents a probability much higher than winning the lottery.
Xiong Tai, after being triggered, lost his enthusiasm. Every evening, he worked tirelessly for each member of the team, showing unwavering dedication.
Freyr also took on the role of Vice Captain, yet he did not immediately appoint a new Vice Captain. He thought that rather than replacing the Vice Captain, it might be better to completely abolish the position altogether.
This way, they could avoid appearing too distant from one another. Such considerations were indeed valid; after all, among the five of them, it would be inappropriate for anyone to take on the role of Vice Captain.
Instead of that, it would be more effective to simply abandon the Vice Captain position, which would help eliminate any barriers between them.
As days passed, it seemed that nothing significant occurred. The hunters among them, who lacked awareness, were ordered to return to the association to carry out their Daily Tasks.
Indeed, they had been away for at least two months.
No one expected this war to last so long, and it appeared that this battle would be recorded in textbooks. Upon their return, they would undoubtedly be treated like heroes. The Human Alliance had dispatched the stationed troops to other strongholds since these forces were originally sent as emergency reinforcements.
Now that the crisis had temporarily passed, the soldiers who had not suffered losses needed to return to their original units to continue rigorous tactical training. The training during peacetime was meant to sharpen their skills, preparing them for the imminent war ahead so they could deliver a lethal strike when the time came.
