CHAPTER 415: CHAPTER 214: YOU OWE ME A FAVOR

"These damn bastards!"

The members of the Dragon Army Squad showed expressions of grief and anger when they heard Lin Beichen’s words. They’ve been through countless battles and injuries, and could naturally tell that their comrade had little hope left.

But Lin Beichen’s words finally extinguished the last shred of hope in their hearts, and two of the squad members stood up and began to walk towards the back.

"Where are you going?"

The captain shouted sternly.

"Of course, we’re going to avenge our comrade!"

"Are you still qualified soldiers?"

With the captain’s words, the two squad members instantly calmed down, and then all of them tacitly turned their gaze towards Lin Beichen.

Although they were not within Dragon Country’s borders, they were still able to determine that Lin Beichen was one of their own. Many people can speak the language of Dragon Country, but the distinctive spirit and grace born from thousands of years of history can only be possessed by someone born, raised, and educated in Dragon Country with pure Dragon Country blood flowing in their veins.

"You don’t need to worry about me."

Lin Beichen saw concern in their eyes. Across the world, only Dragon Country’s army bears the title "People’s": only Dragon Country’s army is truly established to protect national interests and the safety of its citizens’ lives and property. Therefore, no matter what happens, even if there’s a risk of sacrifice, they must ensure Lin Beichen’s safety.

"That’s not acceptable. We will not stand by and watch any Dragon Country citizen face danger in front of us."

The captain’s firm voice directly rejected Lin Beichen’s suggestion. He looked towards the direction they had just come from. Even an ordinary person could now hear the footsteps of those drug traffickers.

Thinking about this, the captain’s face showed a determined expression.

"Number 3, take Number 6 and leave here. The rest of us will cover our young brother’s retreat."

Number 6 mentioned by the captain was the severely wounded comrade, while Number 3 was the fittest among them. To complete the mission of taking a severely injured comrade away, only Number 3 could do it.

"Let me stay. With my condition, leaving would only be a burden for Old 3."

At this moment, Number 6’s face was pale, and he spoke with a trembling voice. He didn’t want to become a burden. If he could choose, he would rather let his life end on the battlefield.

"Don’t worry, none of you will die."

Even though he knew the character of his country’s soldiers, witnessing the willingness of these people to die warmed Lin Beichen’s heart.

If he hadn’t received the ability of "Enlightenment," he would have walked the path of a soldier too. Even as an ordinary citizen from Dragon Country, Lin Beichen wouldn’t let anyone die in front of him, especially these soldiers, the backbone of Dragon Country. Lin Beichen would not let tragedy unfold before his eyes.

"You all stay here and rest for a bit. I’ll handle those people."

As he spoke, Lin Beichen stood up and walked towards the direction from which the Dragon Army Squad had just come. The squad members immediately rushed to stop him, but found they couldn’t hold Lin Beichen back.

"Rest assured, you all just take a good rest. It’ll be over soon."

In the brief moment of the squad’s hesitation, Lin Beichen had already entered the forest from which they had just emerged.

"Captain..."

The rest of the team turned their gaze towards their captain, who gave them a stern glare.

"Why are you still standing around? Hurry up and help!"

Upon hearing the captain’s command, they finally snapped back into action. They hurriedly grabbed their weapons and ran towards the direction where Lin Beichen had gone.

At this time, Lin Beichen had already entered the forest, facing over twenty armed drug traffickers.

"Are you the ones who have been hunting down my Dragon Country soldiers?"

Seeing the sudden appearance of Lin Beichen, the drug traffickers instinctively stopped. They didn’t expect to encounter such a young man in this place.

The leading drug trafficker signaled his men to halt. Despite Lin Beichen appearing to be a young man in his twenties, his presence here at this moment made the leader uneasy.

"Who are you?"

Using Dragon Country’s language, the leader asked.

"You’ve already figured that out, so why ask?"

Lin Beichen’s standard smile carried a hint of mockery through the eyes of the drug traffickers.

"You mentioned Dragon Country soldiers. So, you have met those people?"

The leader asked coldly, his gaze filled with threat.

"Of course, I have."

Lin Beichen nodded.

"Does this brat plan to give us away?"

The conversation between Lin Beichen and the drug traffickers was observed by the Dragon Army Squad members hiding in the shadows, and a trace of anger appeared on one soldier’s face.

"If you tell me where they are, I will spare you."

The leader’s face showed a slight smile, and the Dragon Army Squad members prepared for battle upon hearing those words. They were ready to strike first and eliminate the traffickers if Lin Beichen revealed their position.

"Sorry, even if I told you, you wouldn’t get to meet them."

Lin Beichen’s answer surprised everyone, and the leader’s face turned angry.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I mean, how can the dead meet the living?"
