CHAPTER 371: CHAPTER 173: UPHEAVAL (PART 3)

It was as if he just led the team there, fired a few shots, launched a few rockets, and those monsters naturally and logically fell.

To be honest, he’s experienced similar "crushing" battles before.

With the heavy artillery cover from the Guard Brigade, he even once killed a level four monster in just one minute.

But that kind of victory seemed so insignificant compared to the victory he just achieved.

There is a huge difference between them.

Knowing what you’re doing, and merely going with the flow.

And obviously, the warriors of the Guard Brigade felt the same as he did.

In the past, after every great victory, the first thing they did was celebrate, revel, boast about their bravery, and flaunt their loyalty to the Holy Trinity.

But now, the situation is completely different.

They are still excited, still proud of their heroic performance.

But what they are discussing is not the "future," but the "past."

They are reviewing that battle, discussing how "should have acted" to achieve better results, discussing the differences between "training and actual combat," and discussing whether they could achieve the same effect with inferior equipment.

From their focused expressions, Jin Zhong could even feel that they were not just "reviewing."

They were reminiscing...

As if what they had just experienced was akin to a lavish feast.

Jin Zhong let out a long breath, then he turned back to Chen Jian, bowed deeply, and said:

"Thank you, sir."

"You have shown me... shown these warriors a different world."

"It’s nothing."

Chen Jian casually waved his hand and replied:

"I have long told you, your individual combat strength is not weak."

"The reason you seem so weak is just because some things were done wrong."

"I corrected some of your mistakes, and thus you became stronger."

"But honestly, you are still far from being a real Huaxia Army..."

"I understand."

Jin Zhong nodded solemnly and then said:

"We will continue to learn and continue to accept your training."

"No matter what, we will take on the responsibility of eliminating monsters and will also help relieve your burden and that of your Huaxia Army."

"Very good."

Chen Jian smiled slightly and asked with a hint of teasing:

"But what if one day you find out that what you are doing conflicts with your faith?"

As the words fell, Jin Zhong was suddenly stunned in place.

It’s not that he hasn’t thought about this question, he’s just been avoiding it.

But after all, this is a problem that must be faced...

After a long silence, he looked up at Chen Jian.

But just as he was about to speak, Chen Jian suddenly spoke again:

"It’s okay, no need to answer me now."

"You will figure it out eventually."

"For now, take the team and rest."

"Your battle is not over yet, next, you still need to head west..."

"To Han Shui?"

Jin Zhong suddenly asked:

"An hour ago, we just received a call for help from Han Shui. Things don’t seem to be good there."

"Perhaps we should go over and help them..."

"You don’t need to worry about this."

Chen Jian shook his head and said:

"We are already prepared."

"That level three monster will arrive at Han Shui City in three hours."

"But don’t worry."

"It will never make it."

"Not make it?"

Jin Zhong looked at Chen Jian in amazement.

"Why?"

Chen Jian did not answer but instead pointed to an open space in the distance.

There, a Mosquito Bomber loaded with two 250kg bombs was slowly taxiing.

A few seconds later, as the aircraft took off, Jin Zhong’s question was immediately answered...
