Chapter 581: Subduing The Dragon!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Senior Colonel Mi was shocked when he saw the list of people Ling Lan chose. If he didn’t know that General Ling Xiao was a fair person, he would have thought that General Ling Xiao chose these people for her. The simpler the information, the stronger the person. If Ling Lan really chose these people herself, she would probably know this point.
Besides the three candidates from the Elite Blade Battle Team, Crazy Warrior was the captain of the second strongest battle team in the special forces. His close-combat skills were almost on par with the captain of the Elite Blade Battle Team.
As for Ice Spirit, she was the captain of the only female special forces battle team, the Ice Frost Team. Although she was not as strong as Domineering Blade and Crazy Warrior in terms of close-combat skills, she was still among the top 5. Most importantly, she was a female. She was not as talented as her male counterparts but she was stronger than them. This was a miracle by itself.
Due to her gender restriction, Ice Spirit had her own battle style. Her style was weird and sinister. According to what Crazy Warrior and Domineering Blade said, they would rather fight against each other than with Ice Spirit.
They could defeat her but her attacks were hard to predict. It required a lot of mental strength to fight with her. After one round of battle, they felt that they had fought 6 rounds with her. It was extremely tiring. This was why Ice Spirit was known as the captain that was the hardest to manage. She made people’s head hurt in a battle.
She would go along with the flow in the battle. When her opponents were strong, she would pretend to be weak. When her opponents were weak, she would dominate them. There was no one way to defeat her. She was like sticky-candy that stuck herself on her opponent. Sooner or later, her opponent would lose their mind and would be defeated by her.
Senior Colonel Mi felt that Ice Spirit’s ability was within the top 3 in terms of close-combat in the special forces. However, she was a female so her stamina was not as good as a man. During the internal compet.i.tions, she would lose energy towards the end of the battle and get defeated by her opponent because of this.
Hence, the three close-combat operators that Ling Lan chose were the strongest in the special forces. Devil Blade and Divine Blade were also among the top in their specialization. Ling Lan had chosen a strong team. However…
Senior Colonel Mi smiled bitterly. Ling Lan’s opponent was a team that even he didn’t have the confidence to win against——Flying Dragon Special Forces. The Flying Dragon Special Forces only allowed prodigies to enter their team. They focused on quality, not quant.i.ty. Only one person would be recruited into that team every few years. This was the team that all the members of the special forces wanted to enter. He didn’t expect the Flying Dragon Special Forces to accept General Ling Xiao’s invitation and be examiners for a recruit that wanted to form his own battle team.
Hence, when Senior Colonel Mi first heard this news from General Ling Xiao, he was dumbfounded. This was the reason why he let Ling Lan chose her team members from the entire special forces name list.
Since her opponents were frightening, Senior Colonel Mi helped Ling Lan by giving her the hint just now. He hoped that Ling Lan would choose the best people. That way, she still had a chance of winning…
Senior Colonel Mi didn’t think that Ling Lan would be able to win this mission. He knew that the members of the Flying Dragon Special Forces were stronger than Domineering Blade. Domineering Blade tried to apply for the Flying Dragon Special Forces before but he had failed the fifth test.
Also, Ling Lan’s opponents were people that fought and stayed with each other for many years. Their cooperation would be much better than the temporary team Ling Lan had. Senior Colonel Mi couldn’t think of any reason why Ling Lan could win this match…
Could it be that General Ling Xiao didn’t want Ling Lan to pa.s.s the mission? If that was the case, why did he let her pa.s.s the first mission? Senior Colonel Mi couldn’t understand General Ling Xiao at all.
Senior Colonel Mi sent out the emergency notice to the five people. Within a few minutes, all five of them came.
A bulky man with a loud voice came first. He called Senior Colonel Mi the moment he came. “Commander, why did you remember me today and even gave me an emergency notice? What happened?”
Senior Colonel Mi held his ears as he replied, “Go and wait at the side quietly. I will tell you once everyone has reached.” He introduced this man to Ling Lan in a soft voice, ” This is Crazy Warrior, the captain of the Crazy Wind Battle Team. He found it a ha.s.sle to choose his nickname so he just used the name of his battle team and gave himself this nickname.”
Crazy Warrior saw Senior Colonel Mi talking to the cold-looking young man after he spoke to him so he curiously sized up the young man. He kept his questions to himself and waited patiently at the side.
Ling Lan saw his actions and knew that although Crazy Warrior seemed rash, he had sharp observation skills. He would not act before understanding the situation. He was a mature and logical person. This was a piece of good news to her. Calm and logical people were able to make decisions that would benefit the team the most so they would not be a burden to other people.
After a while, a pretty soldier walked towards them with a straight back. She smiled gently when she saw Senior Colonel Mi and walked towards him slowly. Crazy Warrior saw the soldier and started to pinch his nose uncontrollably. He glanced at Senior Colonel Mi again. He was wondering why Senior Colonel Mi asked this soldier to come too.
The pretty soldier greeted Senior Colonel Mi with a military salute. “Senior Colonel, nice to see you.”
Senior Colonel Mi replied back with a military salute. There was another reason why Ice Spirit was known as the hardest captain to manage. She placed a lot of attention on formalities. It was a torture for other members of the special forces to stand beside her because they were used to being casual and relaxed.
Hence, when Ice Spirit saw Crazy Warrior leaning casually against the pillar, she frowned. Her smile instantly disappeared. She didn’t reprimand Crazy Warrior because there was an outsider here but she continued to look at Crazy Warrior intensely. Crazy Warrior couldn’t help but straighten his body up under her fierce gaze.
Women are so hard to deal with! Crazy Warrior thought in his heart. Why did the commander build a female team within the special forces? That was a bad decision!
Senior Colonel Mi took the chance to introduce Ice Spirit to Ling Lan and told her Ice Spirit’s gender. Ling Lan confirmed her guess that Ice Spirit was a lady. However, besides being smaller in size, Ice Spirit didn’t look like a woman at all. Ling Lan felt that Luo Lang looked more like a woman as compared to Ice Spirit…
Wait, Luo Lang is a weird person so it was unfair to compare him with Ice Spirit. Ling Lan decided to change the person. She had never seen Li Lanfeng’s face before but with the sickly aura that he carried, he would appear more like a woman if he cross-dressed as compared to Ice Spirit too. Even Li s.h.i.+yu might look better than Ice Spirit as a woman…
