34: I vomited a lot...

Ye Liuyun had just returned to his dorm after dinner when Xu Feng followed closely, knocking on the door and entering.

"Hello, Commander Xu."

"Alright, I came over to give you a few instructions."

Xu Feng pressed Ye Liuyun back onto his bed and said, "Tomorrow, your company will be deployed to the defense zone."

"I guarantee the completion of the mission! Tomorrow, if one comes, I'll kill one!" Ye Liuyun stood up and declared in a loud voice.

"I came precisely to tell you about this. Be brave tomorrow. You know that the military is hostile to people who are temporarily inserted like this."

"I understand, don't worry, Chief Examiner. I'm not here to freeload. Just you wait and see tomorrow." Ye Liuyun, of course, understood what he meant.

After all, his current situation made it seem like he was there for a gilded experience or out of curiosity.

Ye Liuyun had no objections to this; men speak with their strength, and that's all there is to it.

"With you in this state, I'm relieved. Let me tell you about the defense zone in advance.

Generally speaking, unless there's a particularly large-scale beast tide, it's mostly first-tier Vicious Beasts, with the strongest being only second-tier.

Most are not as strong as the Frost White Ape you killed back then."

First-tier and unranked Vicious Beasts are the most common on the battlefield because they reproduce quickly and in large numbers.

They are not highly intelligent, and most of the time, they just harass and charge blindly.

"However, it's not impossible for a third-tier Vicious Beast to appear. If one does, you retreat.

That's not something you can withstand. The commander will take action then." Xu Feng wasn't actually worried that Ye Liuyun would be a coward; he was afraid he would be too reckless.

If he were to encounter a third-tier and charge in head-on, dying there, their Eastern Theater Command would be in deep trouble.

Not to mention he was Commander Lu's adopted son, his status as Lu Province's top scholar and the third in the nation alone would ensure that the higher-ups and National Martial Arts University would not let it go.

This was also why Zhao Donglai didn't favor Ye Liuyun.

The risk was too great.

"Understood. If I encounter a third-tier, I'll retreat. If it's a second-tier, I'll go in and fight." Ye Liuyun agreed crisply.

"Remember what you said. If you dare to charge in then, I'll send you back to the rear.

No matter what, ensure your own life; you are different from us!" Xu Feng advised earnestly.

Ye Liuyun's value was far greater than their entire regiment.

"Yes!"

Ye Liuyun stood at attention and saluted.

He wasn't foolish either; if he really couldn't win, he certainly wouldn't force it.

But the premise was that he genuinely couldn't win!

Xu Feng had said everything he needed to say. After leaving the door, he looked at Ye Liuyun suspiciously.

He was starting to regret bringing this fellow here.

Judging from his performance in the college entrance examination battle, this guy was completely a hothead.

Sigh!

Forget it!

Tomorrow, he would just be more vigilant. If any danger truly arose, he could rush over immediately.

The night passed without incident.

The next morning, at eight o'clock.

Ye Liuyun followed the team out of the camp and arrived at the defense zone.

They relieved the original company.

The defense zone stretched for several kilometers to the left and right, with huge iron plates restricting both sides, and inside the iron plates were numerous dark gun muzzles.

The responsibility of these more than four hundred people was to defend this two-kilometer-wide area and prevent Vicious Beasts from breaking through.

Ahead lay an endless expanse of desolate plains. Before the Great Era, this place was once the capital of a nation.

But unfortunately, after the appearance of Vicious Beasts, that nation, which was almost on par with Daxia, was instantly overrun, becoming a kingdom of Vicious Beasts.

Now, no traces of a city could be seen.

Compared to the several Vicious Beast-dominated regions surrounding Daxia, the one opposite could be ranked among the top three.

Xiao Chen divided this 95th Company into platoons, and then the platoons were further divided into squads, each assigned its own area.

As the deputy company commander, Ye Liuyun didn't need a fixed position but had to patrol. Wherever there was a problem, he and Xiao Chen would take the lead there.

Battles usually concentrated in the noon and afternoon, with very few in the morning, only sporadic unranked Vicious Beasts.

They were already dispersed by heavy firepower before even approaching the defense zone.

Ye Liuyun patrolled back and forth on the front line, a nauseating stench wafting from the distance.

This was the smell of years of accumulation, having permeated the ground. Even if the bodies were cleared, the smell was difficult to remove.

But fortunately, he could relatively tolerate it; he just needed to get used to it.

The patrol was extremely monotonous. Ye Liuyun walked for half an hour and then found a place to sit down.

As soon as his rear touched the ground, dust suddenly flew up in the distance, and a cacophony of roars pierced the sky. Ye Liuyun sprang up as if electrified.

He quickly arrived at the front line.

Looking at the scene before him, Ye Liuyun's eyes were filled with shock.

He saw that the distant plain was already churning with rolling smoke and dust, and beneath the smoke and dust were countless Vicious Beasts.

All sorts of them mixed together, roaring as they charged towards the defense line.

This visual impact instinctively caused a physiological discomfort.

"Prepare for battle!"

Xiao Chen shouted, then came to Ye Liuyun's side.

"After they break through the first layer of defense, you will launch an attack with the Tianli System warriors."

The first layer of defense was heavy firepower controlled by AI, the second layer was the special ability attacks of Tianli System warriors.

The third layer was hand-to-hand combat.

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that Ye Liuyun's body next to him was trembling slightly.

"Relax, it's normal to feel this way the first time you see a scene like this..."

Xiao Chen comforted him, but soon realized something was wrong: this guy was actually smiling?

"Company Commander, you don't need to worry about me, rest assured." Ye Liuyun's voice was trembling, not from fear, but from excitement.

Damn it!

I'm rich!

An unranked Vicious Beast gives two or three points, a first-tier gives dozens to a hundred.

And the number of Vicious Beasts before him, damn, this was going to be a huge profit!

It was simply paradise!

Xiao Chen looked at Ye Liuyun in surprise.

However, once he confirmed that he wasn't afraid, he relaxed.

After Xiao Chen left, Ye Liuyun moved to the front, his heart rate uncontrollably accelerating.

In his eyes, these were not Vicious Beasts but glittering beast points.

In less than three minutes.

These unranked Vicious Beasts had already rushed to the first defense line, and blood mist mixed with gunpowder smoke rose.

One Vicious Beast after another was blasted into a bloody mist by powerful firepower before even charging over.

Ye Liuyun exclaimed that it was a waste.

Unfortunately, there were no orders yet, and he dared not attack without authorization. The army was not like other places.

If you didn't obey, it was reasonable for them to dismiss you.

Every minute and every second was agony for him.

However, soon, powerfully defended Vicious Beasts, enduring the heavy firepower, rushed to the front of the second defense line.

At the same time, the order for a full-scale attack was issued.

Ye Liuyun, who could no longer hold back, was the first to leap out of the defense zone, activating his Atomic Breath, which erupted with a roar.

The blue beam of light caused violent energy fluctuations.

The ground in front of Ye Liuyun was directly churned into a deep trench by the Atomic Breath.

The Vicious Beasts charging at the very front were directly engulfed and then disintegrated by the beam.

"[Killed unranked Vicious Beast Red-Furred Cat, awarded Beast Points * 2]"

"[Killed unranked Vicious Beast Iron-Armored Chicken, awarded Beast Points * 1]"

"[Killed unranked Vicious Beast Earth-Devouring Rat, awarded Beast Points * 5]"

... The accumulated prompts in his mind made Ye Liuyun even more excited.

This was what battle was like, this was what felt good!

He stood at the front alone for a full two minutes, clearing almost all the Vicious Beasts in front of their defense zone.

After Ye Liuyun stopped, his mouth was already stretched to the back of his head, he was making a fortune!

This must be several thousand Beast Points.

However, before he could even celebrate, he suddenly saw black, then his brain spun, and he fell straight to the ground.

Thump... Xiao Chen, who was standing behind with a smile still on his face, instantly turned pale.

Damn! What happened to him?!

"Medic! Quick!"

...
