Game: Civilization Paradise

Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Each Showing Their Special Prowess

"Holy shit, you bastard! You hit way too hard. Are you trying to kill me?!"

Wei Xiu snapped back to his senses and cursed at Long Ming.

"Don’t blame me. You’re just too weak."

"Pah! But still, you punk... how did your skills get so much better than before?"

"They’re alright. I’ve just improved a little."

Long Ming replied with a smile.

"Wait, why are you here? And why did you ambush me?"

Wei Xiu suddenly realized what was happening and stared at Long Ming.

"I didn’t. I was just passing by."

Long Ming’s expression stiffened, and he answered, looking a little guilty.

"You think I’d believe that? Also, you’re not from our Second Legion, are you?"

"I’m from the Third Legion."

"Shit, have you no shame?! I tried to get you to enlist with me back then, but you made all sorts of excuses. Turns out you just ran off to the Third Legion."

"You can’t put it like that. You told me you were working as a security guard!"

"I *am* a security guard. I’m just a security guard at the armory."

"Then let’s call it even."

"Fine, I won’t argue about that. But what’s a guy from the Third Legion doing over here?"

"I’m on a recon mission!"

"Recon my ass. You’ve crossed the boundary line."

"Have I? I can’t read the boundary line markings!"

"Cut the crap. You, a top student, can’t read a boundary line? Who are you trying to fool?"

"Doesn’t make a difference. This is just the edge of the boundary, isn’t it?"

"Something’s fishy. Definitely fishy. Don’t tell me there’s something wrong with this supply depot? I’m gonna take a look!"

As Wei Xiu spoke, he started walking toward the supply depot.

Long Ming quickly grabbed Wei Xiu’s arm and said,

"Don’t! There’s nothing to see in there!"

"Oho, now that you say that, I absolutely have to look."

"Don’t be like that. You’re forcing me to get rough, you know?"

"You dare? Believe it or not, I’ll report you!"

Wei Xiu replied smugly.

"Alright, can you just do me a favor? Just pretend you never saw this supply depot."

Long Ming said to Wei Xiu, completely exasperated.

"I knew something was up."

Wei Xiu’s smile grew even wider.

"So, are you going to help me or not?"

Long Ming asked with a sigh.

"Alright, fine. I’ll help you out. But you owe me a big meal."

Seeing how badly Long Ming wanted this supply depot, Wei Xiu decided not to make things difficult for him.

Just then, a sound came from the distance.

"Damn, someone else is coming."

Long Ming’s brows furrowed instantly.

"Probably recon personnel from other combat teams."

"Your legion sent this many people to scout?"

"Duh. I’m not arguing with you anymore. I’m already pretending I never saw this supply depot. You can deal with the rest yourself. There’s no way I’m helping you beat up my own people."

After saying his piece to Long Ming, Wei Xiu turned and left.

Long Ming sighed and crept toward the direction of the sound.

At that moment, two reconnaissance soldiers from the Second Legion were cautiously searching the area.

"Zhang Yi, are you sure there’s something here?"

"Not sure, but there are several suspicious supply depots around here."

"Alright then!"

...

"AWOOO~"

Just then, a deep cry rang out.

"Oh no, it’s a Blood Breath Beast."

"Run!"

Zhang Yi and the other soldier’s hearts leaped into their throats. They immediately turned and fled.

After the two had fled,

Long Ming emerged from a dark corner. A smile appeared on his face as he watched the retreating recon soldiers he’d scared away.

In reality, there was no Blood Breath Beast there at all. The sound he had just played was an audio file from his wristband.

After confirming everything was clear, he hurried away.

...

「The next morning.」

One after another, "Earth Bear" tanks were quickly deployed. A dense mass of soldiers stood in neat formations, their expressions grim as they waited for the order to move out.

"It’s almost eight o’clock. Where are Long Ming and Luoxue?"

Jing Chuan glanced at the time on his wristband and said anxiously.

"I don’t know. Let’s wait a little longer."

Fu Fuqing replied, his brows knitted together.

"Sorry, I’m late!"

Just then, Long Ming ran over, panting.

"Long Ming, you’re finally here! Where’s Luoxue?"

Jing Chuan immediately stepped forward and asked when he saw Long Ming approaching.

"Huh? She’s not here yet?

"Shouldn’t I be asking you that? Weren’t you two together?"

"No, we weren’t. But I figure she should be here soon."

Long Ming was also a little surprised.

Just as Jing Chuan was about to say something, Zhihan called out joyfully,

"Commander Luoxue is here!"

Fu Fuqing and the others turned to look. Luoxue was walking over with a calm expression.

Everyone let out a collective sigh of relief.

Luoxue glanced at everyone and said,

"It’s about time. The Second Legion and Third Legion are about to launch their attack. We should get moving too."

Just then, Fu Fuqing suddenly spoke to Luoxue.

"Luoxue, can I take a team to scout an area first?"

Long Ming was a bit surprised to hear Fu Fuqing’s words.

"You may. After you’re done scouting, rendezvous at coordinates 1521, 5214!"

Luoxue thought for a moment, then agreed.

"Alright!"

Fu Fuqing then left with Jiang Heng and the others.

Luoxue then turned to Long Ming, waiting to see what his plan was.

Long Ming hesitated for a moment before saying,

"How about we split up and act separately too?"

"Alright! Zhihan, you’re with me. We’ll go scout an area."

Luoxue said to Zhihan.

"Okay!"

Zhihan then took her people and left with Luoxue.

"Huh? What about me?"

Jing Chuan was stunned, seeing that they all had their own plans.

"You’re with me, of course!"

Long Ming said to Jing Chuan with a smile.

Jing Chuan looked at Long Ming, a bit bewildered.

"The problem is, they all have objectives. What are we going to do? We can’t just head straight for the rendezvous point, can we?"

"Of course not. Do you have transport vehicles?"

Long Ming asked directly.

"Duh. Of course I do."

Jing Chuan answered without a second thought.

"Bring all the transport vehicles and soldiers and follow us. We’re on a tight schedule."

Long Ming urged Jing Chuan.

"Alright."

Jing Chuan didn’t waste a single word and immediately did as he was told.

...

「A short while later.」

Jing Chuan drove a jeep with Long Ming in the passenger seat, leading a convoy of transport vehicles forward.

BOOM! BOOM!

Just then, the artillery positions of the Second and Third Legions began their attack.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

A sky full of artillery shells rained down on the outskirts of Osmo City, exploding one after another.

However, all the shelling was aimed at monster gathering points, avoiding all roads, so it was unlikely to hit the advancing troops.

"Turn left at the road ahead! Faster!"

Long Ming directed Jing Chuan according to the route he had scouted in advance.

"Wait, where are we going? And is it really okay to be moving this fast? Aren’t we going to get separated from the main attack force and end up surrounded by monsters?"

Jing Chuan asked Long Ming, a bit worried.

"There’s a risk of that, but as the saying goes, fortune favors the bold!"

Long Ming said calmly.

"Alright then!"

Jing Chuan couldn’t help but step harder on the accelerator, speeding the convoy up.

But as they drove on, Jing Chuan started to feel that something was off.

"Long Ming, have we crossed the line? I think we’ve entered the Second Legion’s territory."

"Have we? You must be seeing things."

Long Ming replied with a chuckle.

"Am I?"

Jing Chuan was also a little unsure.
