Chapter 6

He seized Polvason's wrist and knocked his long spear away

The Eastern doctor stated that overeating is harmful to the body

"Yes! I heard he has gone to the palace to work as a man in service there." After saying this, Xiukela was taken aback, "What! ... Are you saying that you ..."

Subsequently, the two followed Captain Philia of the Third Squad on a mission, and during the actual combat, they discovered that after making adjustments based on Mu's guidance, their marksmanship indeed improved significantly

When Mu Yi asked, Xiu Ke La smiled again, and Mu had no choice but to patiently wait for him to finish laughing before speaking again

The two individuals secretly contemplated that in the future, they must accompany the deputy squad leader on more missions, as that would provide them with the opportunity to learn more about marksmanship from him

Then it is my turn to ask questions

"However, you are truly remarkable! Not to mention your martial skills and military strategy, just that level of composure is already impressive." At this moment, Xiukela was already somewhat intoxicated.

"It doesn't matter, after all, you are still my superior." After saying this, Mu took another sip of his drink

Last year, Marusia also transitioned from assisting with cooking and laundry to becoming a new recruit in his team

Under this sense of fear and hesitation in battle, the three were initially overwhelmed by Mu's continuous thrusts, leaving them gasping for breath

At that time, Priscilla gathered all the female soldiers into a single squad, which he personally trained, resulting in a number of personnel and combat capability far superior to that of other squads

Soon, all nineteen members of the Wenji team and seventeen members of the Biz team gathered together

"Ha ha ha, is that so?"

Later, others who inquired about the same matter received different stories

After being reprimanded, the three individuals rekindled their fighting spirit and unleashed their most skilled techniques to launch a joint offensive forward

Recovering her senses, Xiukela said: "You can't possibly be a member of the royal family from some Eastern country, can you? What you are referring to is the study of imperial governance, isn't it?"

Observing their sparring situation, it is evident that in terms of basic training, Wen Ji's subordinates are inferior to Biz's team members

Their physical condition and experience have reached a considerable level of maturity, and the progress of individual training results will be relatively slow at this time. Therefore, enhancing the combat effectiveness of joint operations through formations is the most cost-effective investment

At this moment, Mu flashed a look of approval, brandished his spear, and first deflected the most powerful attack from Biz, causing the now off-target assault to become completely ineffective

Is it related to me

Well! I happen to have many things I would like to ask you.

"Those team members told me that no matter what happens, they have never seen you get angry, and you can even smile. By the way! This is the method you mentioned for managing subordinates in a way that seems profound and inscrutable, isn't it?"

Going to battle is not child's play; if one had to choose one of the two teams to fight, Mu would unhesitatingly choose Team B.

However, their work performance has also declined correspondingly

After closing his eyes and reflecting for a moment, Xiukela said: "Wenji joined the group nine years ago, when he was only sixteen years old." He then began to recount events from the past

"No, this is merely a form of contemplation and meditation. You didn't come all the way here just to cover me with a blanket, did you, Captain Shukra?" Mu opened his eyes and said

After listening to Xiukela's recollections, Mu finally realized that there was such a past.

All three individuals were shot multiple times. Although they were using practice long guns modified with fabric covers, they still felt intense pain at the sites of impact. Even Wen Ji was not spared; Mu showed no mercy simply because she was a woman.

After reporting the progress of the task to Noxiu, and since there are currently no suitable tasks available, Noxiu instructed Mu and Wenji to take a rest today and to notify them once a task arises

I did not expect that the training aimed at reducing casualties could have such a significant effect, allowing Wen Ji's team to cooperate with him and take down three targets and the books in one go, while the zero casualties surprised Noxiu.

After speaking, Mu extended his hands. Strangely, one palm was red while the other was blue.

"He thinks this way because I don't have a beard or an Adam's apple, right?" Mu said without a moment's hesitation

Young man, are you interested in her? Your taste is not bad! She is indeed a good girl. However, you are also young and accomplished, so the two of you are quite a match.

"What do you think?" Xiuke said with a smile

At this moment, the members of the group realized that Priscilla was from the Earl of Restan's family in the Northern Skandia Kingdom

Garante previously told me something very interesting

For human traffickers, a girl's good physical condition is essential to sell her at a higher price, so they do not suffer any harm

However, he did not wait long, as the maid soon brought the ordered items.

"Ha ha ha! You young people are truly amusing. Do you have time to accompany this old man for a drink?"

Of course! He said you should be a woman!

After the guidance for the three individuals is completed, the next step is the practice instruction for the team members

The reason is simple: the girls have been undergoing training in formation with firearms these past few days, allowing them to leverage the cover provided by the formation to achieve a greater combat effectiveness than that of individuals.

In terms of the variation and application of techniques, although there has been enhanced training under Mu over the past two days, it can only barely keep pace with the standards of the Biz team

However, the older superior revealed an ambiguous expression, squinting at him.

After contemplating various possibilities and watching Mu leave, Noxiu has gained a basic understanding of his background

At this moment, Wen Ji's offensive had closed in, and Mu countered with a thrust, forcing Wen Ji to retreat

"Is it just drinking?" Mu's gaze suddenly became sharp

Regarding the composition of Wenchih's team, Mu harbored some doubts; however, this is not the appropriate time for investigation. He must focus his mind on the training at hand

Most of the members of the team are young men in their twenties or older, whose physical development and experience are already quite mature

When the outcome was determined, many players who had been anxiously watching and holding their breath finally let out a long sigh

The maid hurriedly noted down the menu and left

Staying within the group to wait for a more favorable commission is indeed the best strategy. Gallant's approach of holding out for a better price does indeed make the group's income more favorable, while also making the work relatively easier

"Truly...! ... This is indeed a marvelous secret technique!" For Xiukela, this is the most flavorful appetizer of the day.

However, in terms of the flexibility and precision of marksmanship, as well as the variety of techniques, Bi Zi is not as proficient as Wen Ji.

This foundational training should not be rushed; excessive training may instead lead to injuries

Due to the widespread reports of a large number of subhuman tribes and magical beasts near the Redhuaiya Mountain area, an increasing number of adventurers and mercenary groups have come to this vicinity to take on missions

Why is that? Generally, people would make such a judgment!

Due to Galante's exceptional financial acumen, Morningstar's financial condition is quite favorable. For tasks where the compensation is relatively low compared to the difficulty or the distance is considerable, one may choose not to accept the commission.

He feels that today's side dishes are surprisingly flavorful

The guidance work will begin with the three team leaders and deputy leaders. Mu will first have the three of them take turns practicing with each other

Mu has determined the future training directions for the two teams. After clearly explaining the training methods and key points, he urged everyone to diligently follow the prescribed methods for exercise. He also stated that the results of the training will be assessed in the future, which will then inform the decision on whether to proceed to the next stage of training

The same wine, and some nuts as well

As the two continued to discuss some recent rumors, their conversation was nearing its conclusion when their bottles of wine ran dry

Initially, the members of the two teams will practice with each other, and the outcome of the competition with the books will mostly result in Team B's victory

Mu took a sip of wine and continued, "However, if it is a capable subordinate, one should appropriately disclose a portion of the secrets. This way, they will feel valued and will work harder and remain more loyal."

It has been five years since Wenji took office, but during these five years, most of the new members have been young girls without support. Perhaps it is because Wenji empathizes with the experiences of those girls

Oh! What do you want to know? Xiuke La is already eager to see what the next dish to accompany the drinks will be

The storm-like gunfire suddenly ceased, and Mu reprimanded the three individuals.

What should I take note of

The small team of two has just returned, similar to Wen Ji's team. Previously, the two had been on a mission with Captain Phyllia of the Third Squad.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Biz launched an attack, but Mu countered with a sweeping motion, deflecting his long spear. He then closed the distance and struck a palm to Biz's chest, causing Biz to fall from the impact

Wen Ji and the others' task is merely to divert the other enemies, allowing Mu to confront a single ogre alone

In fact, Mu and his companions returned much sooner than Noxiu had anticipated; he had originally estimated that it would take a few more days.

Do Eastern people sleep in this special posture

Wen Ji's talent is commendable; in just over two years, his marksmanship has improved significantly

After the individual practice concludes, Mu requires them to engage in group practice, conducting team battles in groups of six.

At this time, the mercenary group had just passed near his hometown, while the other girls who had been brought along with him had long since returned home

Did you see me meditating on the bed today? In fact, that is a form of Eastern mysticism that can alter one's constitution and strengthen the body

I chose a table in the corner and sat down; before long, a young waitress came over to present the menu

That is the result of my subordinates' hard work, not solely my own merit

You have done quite an excellent job recently

Therefore, although the number of people is smaller, the combat effectiveness of Team Biz is actually higher than that of Team Wenji

However, for the few months after he left, Noxiu remained very despondent, and most of the matters in the group were handled by Galante and Xiukela.

"What’s wrong, Mr. Xiukela?" As Mu just finished speaking, he noticed that Xiukela was staring blankly with his mouth agape

Upon hearing these words, Xiuke's tense expression relaxed slightly

After opening the bottle of wine, the two poured a glass for themselves, and then Xiuke La began to get to the point

Subsequently, the squad leader also left the mercenary group due to marriage, and was succeeded by Wen Ji, who had already been promoted to deputy squad leader

At this time, it was already dusk, and the firearms training came to a conclusion.

In the evening, Mu sat on the bunk in his tent, closing his eyes to meditate and cultivate his energy

After the crowbar pried open the walnut shell, it was discovered that the walnut kernel inside had already broken apart

Rubbing his chin, Xiuke La continued, "However, I am still very curious as to why you do not have a beard or an Adam's apple."

Touch my hand and see

Priscilla quickly caught up with the other party. Against such kidnappers, she showed no mercy, not even sparing those who attempted to escape

I have heard everything from Bowasen and Wenji; their skills are remarkable, making me, an old man, feel inferior. You mentioned that you once served in the military in the East; at that time, you must have been at least a senior officer, right

Although Wen Ji's team does not possess strong combat capabilities, their casualty rate is very low, which is largely related to his care for the lives of his team members

Priscilla originally had no intention of inheriting a title; she only wished to travel the world on her own. Therefore, she set off on a journey away from home, and it was only later, at the sincere invitation of Nox, that she joined the Morning Star.

That day, Mu heard what Wenji said, but Noxiu believed it was merely a statement to reassure the troops. No one can guarantee that there will be no casualties on the battlefield, as depicted in books, yet it unexpectedly came to pass.

At that time, Xiuke La was his deputy, and Donier was merely a young warrior of swordsman rank.

As far as I know, Easterners do not allow women to study military strategy and martial skills, let alone lead armies. Your military strategy and martial skills have evidently been honed on the battlefield; given the circumstances in the East, it is impossible for you to be a woman

After Mu finished speaking, he picked up a walnut, clapped his hands together, and handed it to the other person, indicating for him to crack it open

Such individuals should also achieve considerable success in their own country; why would they come to the West

Then Mu had the three of them team up to battle against him. Although it was three against one, the three of them lacked confidence, especially Wen Ji, who knew that Mu had killed the ogre with a single blow.

However, Wenji, who had gone home, unexpectedly returned, and this time she brought along an eight-year-old girl.

Biz and Bowasen initially believed that their skills in marksmanship had improved significantly after receiving guidance last time, and they thought they could surpass Wenji. However, they later realized that Wenji had been closely accompanying the deputy squad leader these past few days and must have received even more instruction.

Conversely, the members of the Wenji team still have significant room for improvement in their individual combat capabilities; therefore, the focus of training should be placed on the individual.

Poisson is slightly inferior to the other two, but the gap is limited

It would be acceptable if they were young girls around eighteen or nineteen years old, but even girls as young as fourteen or fifteen, like Marusia, have four

The issue should lie in the composition of the team; apart from the two squad leaders and Wen Ji, who are of similar age, the others are significantly younger than Wen Ji

However, Mu does not believe that Wenji's subordinates are lacking in ability

This team battle is merely intended to allow the Biz team to experience the power of effectively utilizing formations and cooperating with one another

Wen Ji repaid Priscilla's care by diligently practicing his spear skills. Soon after, Priscilla deemed his spear skills to be quite good and promoted him to the position of squad leader

Upon hearing Mu's statement, the three nodded in agreement and quickly went down to gather their team members

Spear techniques involve not only thrusting but also methods such as sweeping, hooking, and twisting, similar to those he employed. Additionally, one can also use strikes with the hands and feet, as demonstrated earlier, to complement spear techniques

"Oh! How humble! To be able to so easily eliminate nearly a hundred goblins and to have slain three ogres without a scratch, that is not something that can be achieved solely through the efforts of subordinates." After speaking, Xiukela raised his cup and took a sip of wine

"You misunderstood; there is a reason I asked this way." After saying this, he proceeded to clarify his questions regarding the composition of Wenji's team.

At this age, not only is there a lack of combat experience and training time, but even the physical muscles have not yet fully developed

Taking advantage of the lively conversation, Mu once again inquired about this matter

In the context of business competition, the reliance on the services of the Morning Star Mercenary Corps has significantly decreased

The senior officials of Morningstar each have their own exclusive tents, which is quite convenient for him, as he is accustomed to solitude

At this moment, Wen Ji launched another attack, but Mu dodged and counterattacked. Having had one experience already, Wen Ji quickly retreated

Upon hearing the captain's words, Mu realized that he had been misunderstood. If he did not clarify the situation, the misunderstanding would only deepen.

Biz's marksmanship is powerful and forceful, whereas the destructive capability of the female character Wenji is comparatively lesser

Is there still some rumor?

Mu's continuous thrusting speed was extremely fast, leaving the teammates beside him dazzled; all they could see were streaks of gun shadows, as if several long spears were thrusting incessantly.

"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha------" Xiu Ke La laughed for a long time before stopping

However, the tranquility of solitude tonight was disrupted by the arrival of guests at his tent

The outcome, however, was that the Biz team left the girls looking disheveled and defeated, with each team member feeling downcast.

Mu and Wenji returned to the camp of Team 4, where they encountered another squad leader, Biz, and his deputy squad leader, Powasen

After they took a brief respite, Mu began to explain the techniques and methods he had just employed.

At the time he took over, the strength of the female rifle squad within the infantry battalion had significantly diminished due to the loss of several skilled members

First, gather the members of your team. Since we are going to provide firearms training, let the team members observe as well. I can also take this opportunity to enhance their training, which will be beneficial for future combat situations

For us, the growth of beards and Adam's apples in men is influenced by the abundant presence of vigorous Yang energy, while the fullness of breasts in women is influenced by the abundant presence of cool Yin energy

A bottle of red wine, and some smoked meat and sausage. Mu, what do you want

I just want to tell you that, like those people, if a person's body experiences issues in certain parts, it will manifest as changes in their appearance.

To be a leader, one must maintain an aura of mysterious authority to instill respect in subordinates, and to maintain this mystery, one must not let them know in advance what one is thinking. When actions yield significant results, authority will be established in their minds

Upon hearing the requests of the two individuals, Wen Ji also put forth the same matter

There is no such thing; I am merely an adopted orphan. I no longer wish to recall these matters.

After the battle concluded and he inspected the traffickers' vehicle, he discovered that in addition to the individuals he intended to rescue, there were also over ten girls who had been captured, among whom was Wen Ji.

When Priscilla departed, she only allowed the three female warriors who had been with her the longest to accompany her, as Shukola speculated that she did not want to lose more combat strength from the mercenary group

However, this time is different from the last; Mu rotated the spear, transforming the thrust into a entanglement

At this moment, he was unaware that Mu was merely fabricating a story based on the situation he had observed earlier

"Your coordination in the recent attack was excellent," Mu praised.

When will the captain return

Priscilla arranged for Marusia to assist with cooking, while Wenji continued to remain in Priscilla's direct team

This is called Qi, which consists of two types: Yin Qi and Yang Qi

"Is that all you're eating?" asked Xiuke, squinting his eyes.

Noticing something unusual about Mu's hands, he cautiously touched each one and discovered that one hand was astonishingly hot while the other was frighteningly cold

These individuals have come to retrieve Priscilla to return and inherit the Restan family estate. The original Earl of Restan—his brother has already passed away and left no sons—thus Priscilla has become the sole heir

The Noxian Order dispatched the relatively weak Wenji squad to participate in the battle, believing that Mu would employ a strategy of defeating the ogres one by one.

At this moment, the female soldiers who had just suffered a defeat in their individual training appeared very excited, while the male team confidently believed that, due to the differences in average quality, they would achieve an overwhelming victory in team combat.

Xiukela was aware that there existed a certain sentiment between the two, yet neither had expressed it to the other.

I suddenly thought of something: "The method you just mentioned for managing subordinates should be a secret, right? Why did you tell me so easily?"

Mu taught them different variations of techniques based on the characteristics of the three individuals, and also informed them of some key points for basic training

On one occasion, Priscilla and several of her subordinates were unexpectedly entrusted with the task of rescuing a girl who had been abducted by human traffickers

After speaking, he pondered for a moment and quietly muttered to himself, "I knew it was their mistake"

So that's how it is! I didn't expect you to notice such details; no wonder Badola and the others said you are very meticulous.

Have you all completely forgotten your marksmanship? If you only have cowardly thoughts like mhetushucom.com when facing the enemy, you are bound to lose. You three, pull yourselves together! Take it seriously!

Seeing Xiukela's wide-eyed expression, eager to extract words from his mouth, Mu continued speaking.

"Uh! Yes." Mu replied, a hint of melancholy flashing in his eyes, but at that moment, the elder, with his drunken and bleary gaze, could no longer see clearly.

This is the unique aspect of this secret technique. In order to effectively cultivate Qi, we usually store Qi in the lower abdomen, avoiding waste in other areas. Without the influence of Yang and Yin energies, other parts of the body will not undergo external changes

"That's right, but I don't think so," replied Shu Ke La.

Xiukela found it quite interesting to converse with this new colleague, but he was not in a hurry to enjoy it; waiting could enhance the flavor even more

The two individuals were very pleased to see Mu, as during the last introduction by Xiukela for them, the squad leaders, Mu had practiced with them and provided guidance on their marksmanship.

The two of them thus arrived together at a small tavern in the city

After returning home, Wenji discovered that her brother from her hometown had already passed away, and her niece Marusia had no one to care for her. For the sake of their future, she had no choice but to take the child back to the mercenary group

The envoy persuaded for several days, presenting grandiose reasons such as family honor, national righteousness, and the happiness of the people, before finally convincing Priscilla to return and inherit the Restan family.

However, six years ago, a few individuals came to the Morning Star Mercenary Corps to seek Priscilla

"It is an immense honor," Mu said as he stood up to put on his shoes

Nine years ago, the strongest warrior of the Morning Star Mercenary Corps was the female gunslinger known by the title "Beautiful Warrior"—Priscilla

After a night of rest, Mu and Wenji returned to the regiment with their team from Qiping Town

However, the mercenary group does not take in those who can only eat. Priscilla incorporated them into her own squad, planning to return them home when the mercenary group passes near their hometown in the future

Driven by the rotation, Wen Ji unexpectedly could not hold onto the gun handle, and the long spear in her hand was twisted out of her grip and flew away.

However, including Wenji, several girls have already traveled far from their hometown. Priscilla is unable to send them back and cannot find anyone to entrust them to, so she has no choice but to take them back to the mercenary group first

I did not expect that Mr. Xiukela has quite a bit of knowledge about the East; I wonder if he has ever heard of a group known as eunuchs

Mu's performance in the last task was already quite surprising to Nox. Such consistent displays indicate that he possesses profound strength.

I would like to inquire about Wen Ji's matters

Hmm

I will only be back tonight! I want to enjoy a couple of drinks to relieve the fatigue of the past few days, but drinking alone is too boring, so I came to find you

Is that so? Huh! No, that's not right! With your two distinct traits being so obvious, you should have both a beard and an Adam's apple, as well as a full chest.

The circumstances of each team vary, and therefore the same training methods cannot be applied; it is essential to tailor the instruction to the individual needs.

Therefore, the two eagerly hoped that Mu could provide them with further guidance on their marksmanship

The two individuals were evenly matched, with neither gaining the upper hand

This is not magic. Over the years, Shikela has encountered many magicians and knows that this situation is not caused by the use of magic

"However, I have a question: why do you often not explain the reasons when taking action at the command center, and only clarify them to a few officials afterwards?" Shu Ke La raised the question

Upon hearing the last sentence, Xiuke understood that the other party had indicated a desire not to elaborate further, and it would not be appropriate for him to press for more information.

"It's not like that, don't be anxious, can you let me finish speaking?" After saying this, Mu leisurely took a sip of his drink.

However, he previously said, "I knew it was their mistake!" which caught Mu's attention a bit
