After flying for two or three hours, the relief team arrived at the front line. The so-called front line was actually a long stretch of territory, vastly different from the location they had initially arrived at in the Magellan Star System, and even further from the front lines that Jufeng had rushed to.
This relief trip consisted of three events, with two performances held on two distant planets. The first concert went smoothly and ended perfectly. That night, many new soldiers in the Military, who had never tasted meat before, woke up in the morning rushing to wash their underwear and bedding.
It was evident how great the goddess's charm was.
Chen Tan Hua stood beside Tian Feng, watching the staff nervously and busily set up the stage. Looking out at the crowd below, he couldn't help but exclaim, "The appeal of this musical idol is truly powerful; it probably has more influence than the Chairman of the United Nations."
Of course, this was a joke; politics and entertainment rarely intersected, and Wen Yun was certainly not that kind of person.
Tian Feng had been quiet throughout the trip and continued to maintain that silence now, allowing Chen Tan Hua to chatter away without interruption.
Seeing that Tian Feng was ignoring him, Chen Tan Hua remarked lightly, "Tian, you really have a heavy burden ahead." He then left to check on safety measures elsewhere.
Tian Feng gazed into the distance where he could faintly see Wen Yun's graceful figure and silently thought, "How heavy can it be? How far can it be until the end of time?"
As Wen Yun prepared for the second relief event, Jufeng and his group had already arrived at their designated location for the second time.
It was a border defense planet belonging to the Suihuan Army—desolate and uninhabited except for the stationed troops.
However, even with just one division present, the Suihuan Army felt completely at ease here because those stationed were renowned—the Scorpion Army.
The Scorpion Army sounded intimidating; a military force with a name like that was undoubtedly unique and unconventional. Yet no one dared to mock them, even though their commander was a woman.
For soldiers, military achievements were often the best proof of capability, and the Scorpion Army's accomplishments were countless; otherwise, they wouldn't be among the five Dragon Head Armies. Xiao Ji's words left all the men speechless.
In the distance, Jufeng and Vera lay low behind a hillside, their gaze fixed on a large military camp. The buildings were temporary structures made of steel—clearly wartime accommodations.
The report from Qi Fa reached his ears, as a group of over twenty elites stood ready at their designated positions, waiting for Jufeng's command to begin the reconnaissance.
Jufeng remained silent for a moment, his gaze fixed on the base not far away. The so-called reconnaissance aimed to understand the enemy's situation here, naturally including military strength and equipment deployment. Ideally, they would infiltrate the enemy's computer systems to intercept more concealed information, which would be considered an outstanding success.
Jufeng felt an unsettling atmosphere emanating from the other side. If there was indeed something wrong, he couldn't quite imagine what it might be. He turned to Qi Fa and asked, "Qi Fa, do you see any issues with the Scorpion Army's camp? I have a strange feeling of unease."
Jufeng's instincts had always been remarkably accurate, proven multiple times throughout his military career. This was a matter of probability; however, when probabilities accumulated, they became certainties. Jufeng trusted himself and knew he wouldn't deceive himself.
Upon hearing Jufeng's question, Qi Fa began to feel some doubt as well. However, based on years of experience, he saw no issues with the Scorpion Army's layout.
After pondering for a while, Qi Fa provided a neutral response.
"Based on my experience, there shouldn't be any problems."
This response from Qi Fa did not align with Jufeng's expectations. At that moment, Jufeng found himself in a dilemma.
If he insisted on his viewpoint, it might lead to Qi Fa's dissatisfaction and cause unrest among the soldiers. Especially if the outcome proved him wrong, it would result in a significant loss of prestige.
Yet if he disregarded his own feelings, it could cost many brothers their lives unnecessarily.
How should he weigh both sides?
Seeing that Jufeng hesitated to make a decision, Vera understood his predicament. Dressed in military attire, she placed her hand over Jufeng's.
"Trust your choice, Wind," she said.
Since ancient times, the most difficult thing in the world has been making choices. Standing at a crossroads, everyone has to think carefully.
However, the happiest thing in the world is that whenever one makes a choice, there is always someone steadfastly supporting them, giving them immense courage.
Jufeng looked at Vera; after rekindling their relationship, this situation had occurred many times. Even though he was a strong person, someone standing at the pinnacle, he still needed someone like Vera by his side.
"Qi Fa, let's change the plan a bit. Vera and I will take the lead while you provide support outside. No matter what, the lives of the Brothers are the most important."
With that, Jufeng and Vera melted into the wilderness under the cover of night, disappearing in an instant.
Qi Fa had anticipated Jufeng's choice long ago. On the contrary, he felt no discontent; instead, he found it quite reassuring.
A minute later, Jufeng and Vera arrived at the military camp, hiding among the tall grass. Not far away was the enemy's alert zone, with infrared sensors continuously scanning and a heavy machine gun poised on a high point.
Vera was an excellent marksman, even better at sniping; the death of Hear the Command was proof of that. Shooting from a low position to a high one had always been a sniper's challenge or taboo, but now Vera was taking on this nearly impossible task.
A cold muzzle peeked out from the grass; Vera raised her left hand and made a "K" gesture before quietly waiting for Jufeng's instructions.
The infrared beams scanned left and right, but for Jufeng, there would always be a gap to exploit—this was when he prepared to act.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared in Vera's line of sight. She paused for a moment before pulling the trigger.
The shadow was naturally Jufeng; he had evaded the infrared sensors but couldn't avoid drawing attention from the machine gun above.
But that was alright; Jufeng was not alone.
The machine gunner at the high point spotted Jufeng and was about to raise the alarm, but in that instant, he lost consciousness.
When a person falls, they make a sound, which could alert the Scorpion Army. However, Jufeng's dash was not without purpose; with a leap, he reached the elevated position just in time to catch the man's body, preventing it from hitting the ground.
Carefully removing the earpiece from the man's ear, Jufeng tidied everything up before jumping down to continue deeper with Vera.
In the command room of the Scorpion Army, lights blazed brightly, and numerous Suihuan Army soldiers stood at attention.
On the large screen before them appeared the figures of Jufeng and Vera.
The screen was big and clear, showing a tall female officer watching the recent events unfold with a wild smile etched across her face.
She looked somewhat unsettling.
