CHAPTER 436: CHAPTER 436: HOW FORTUNATE

Even Qin Mo and Su Ye had not sided with Elbert.

They did want to go with Lin Fu, but as team leaders and the spiritual figures of the Military Academy, they couldn’t make everyone trust Lin Fu wholeheartedly and thus couldn’t act on their own.

Suddenly, Elbert became the one who was abandoned.

Besides Elbert, the other Military Academy teams chose to advance along the mastermind’s route, which naturally made the group quite large, providing mutual support along the way.

And choosing Lin Fu’s route made Elbert the lone one.

Lin Fu stood at the front of the team, looked back, and met the gaze of each of her classmates one by one.

Every gaze was so determined and trusting, which silently made Lin Fu vow never to let her classmates down.

"Depart!"

"Depart!!"

"Depart!!!!"

Following Lin Fu’s first command to depart, the other squads also followed suit, stepping forward.

A few who were left alone or had separated from their original teams were integrated into different squads based on individual talents.

"Hm? You came too?" Lin Fu only noticed Morris after they had set off.

She remembered Morris was a master of Land Combat Soldier type at the First Military Command College, exactly what was needed in this situation—the immediate combat power that no Military Academy could afford to lose.

Morris being there was quite strange.

"Everyone else can come, so why can’t I?" Morris coldly huffed, displeased, "Do you not welcome me?"

"You’re different from the others."

Lin Fu was well aware that those who had separated from their original teams were almost all non-Combat Sequence types with very weak combat capabilities, who would need others to protect them during intense battles. That’s why they were reluctantly included with Elbert.

Lin Fu couldn’t bear to refuse them.

But Morris was different.

"How am I different?"

"You are stronger than the rest."

Lin Fu’s straightforward compliment made Morris quite pleased, who proudly said, "You’ve got good insight."

Then he seriously responded to Lin Fu’s earlier comment, "I just trust your judgment, and if others don’t, they shouldn’t expect to control me. I’m not like Qin Mo, unwillingly listening to those people."

Morris’s mood was genuinely upset, irritably rubbing his hair and cursing, "I’ll go wherever I want, each one of them is a weakling, yet they act as if being weak justifies everything, it’s infuriating just to look at them."

Lin Fu understood, "You had an argument among yourselves as well?"

"Yes! It was quite intense. Qin Mo wanted to follow you guys, but the others disagreed, and in the end, he had to compromise. But I didn’t want to compromise, and those people were very unhappy about it."

Morris disliked Qin Mo’s compromise.

"So, it was moral coercion."

Morris’s eyes lit up, "Exactly, it was moral coercion."

"But I think Qin Mo must have his own difficulties." Lin Fu was grateful at that moment, realizing she was fortunate to have her classmates’ unconditional trust and support. When her map was marked, Elbert’s group naturally accepted it without even the need for a meeting or a vote.

How fortunate she was.

"What if I transfer to your Military Academy?"

"Of course, you’re very welcome." Poaching someone from the First Military Command College, Song Zheng would probably be thrilled.

"Hahaha...then it’s settled."

The two continued on, occasionally chatting. Morris’s joining helped Lin Fu alleviate much of her burden, which was perfect as she also needed to recover from the damage her spiritual power had sustained, so she handed over the patrolling tasks to Morris.
