Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 535: Chapter 534 [Demon Wolf Throws 3 Large Mountains]

[PS: Second update delivered. It’s double ticket month, so one ticket counts as two. If we reach 100 tickets by midnight tonight, I’ll burst out two more updates, mark my words!]

Man Tian suddenly became extremely assertive, no longer using the conciliatory tone he had earlier, which stunned Qing Hu and Fei Bao. They could tell Man Tian was not joking; if they disobeyed the military orders, they would indeed be expelled from the army, never to serve as soldiers again.

Whether Qing Hu or Fei Bao, they were among the elite in the Heavenly Gang War General team, the strongest next to the team leader Man Tian. But at the end of the day, they were soldiers, iron-boned and resolute, having spent their lives in military careers. If they were to stop being soldiers, stop carrying out missions, stop living a military life, it would be harder for them than death. They had once taken pride in being soldiers, in being Heavenly Gang War Generals, and now they were formidable powerhouses in their own right. But at their core, they were still soldiers, with a lofty faith and a strong will to protect their country. In battle, they could stake everything, even their lives, but they dared not gamble with their military status, which was more important to them than anything. Loyal devotion to their country was their ultimate belief, the faith that kept them serving their nation and their people.

”Captain...”

Qing Hu and Fei Bao still felt reluctant; they had not yet found the eight missing Heavenly Gang War General brothers, nor had they rescued the ten outstanding students facing challenges. Everyone knew the Demon Mercenary Seven Wolves consisted of seven men; they had expended all their combat strength and wits to eliminate those six monstrously strong foes. But what about the seventh man? The leader of the Demon Mercenary Seven Wolves, Demon Wolf, had not yet shown himself. Except for Ye Tianchen, Man Tian, Qing Hu, and Fei Bao knew of Demon Wolf’s super incredible strength. They needed to defeat Demon Wolf to rescue the ten outstanding students.

Defeat the Demon Wolf? These four words were hardly imaginable for ordinary people. Qing Hu and Fei Bao had the audacity but not the capability. Though they were subordinates to Man Tian, they were as close as brothers. They also knew that Man Tian had once accidentally battled Demon Wolf, with neither coming out as the victor. Despite Man Tian’s prowess being sufficient to dominate across China, he had still not managed to defeat Demon Wolf. How powerful was Demon Wolf? They were indeed curious to witness it.

”You two should leave. Your Captain Man Tian is looking out for your best interests. I’m really starting to wonder if you three are more than good friends!” Ye Tianchen opened his eyes slowly, always staring at the forest ahead.

”You...” Qing Hu and Fei Bao were infuriated by Ye Tianchen’s words, really wanting to give him a good thrashing, but unfortunately, both were seriously injured.

”You might as well leave, but I hope you choose to stay because this will be a battle worth seeing, from which you could learn a lot,” Man Tian glanced at Ye Tianchen and said.

Ye Tianchen stood up, looked at Man Tian and did not say anything, instead went over to Qing Hu and Fei Bao, ”Your Captain Man Tian might not say it out loud, but he really cares about you. Let’s go; I can feel the power of the person who’s about to arrive, it’s truly extraordinary. If you stay here, you’ll be nothing but cannon fodder, aside from making Captain Man Tian worry more, you can’t really do anything!”

Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, Qing Hu and Fei Bao’s eyes reddened instantly. To think there would come a day when their strength would become a burden, it was more painful than death itself. Yet as they gritted their teeth, they suddenly heard Ye Tianchen’s voice: ”Actually, I don’t want you to die either. You both are quite strong, and there might be a chance for us to spar!”

Qing Hu and Fei Bao were taken aback. They realized that while Ye Tianchen might be unreliable sometimes, cracking jokes even at critical moments, what he said made sense. Given their condition, staying would not only be unhelpful but would also distract Man Tian. If Demon Wolf targeted them, they would have no escape but death.

”Let’s go, it’s time to leave before it’s too late!” Man Tian suddenly frowned and said.

Ye Tianchen also frowned. Although his Superpower Perception couldn’t detect Demon Wolf’s powerful aura, his instincts told him it felt as if a Mount Tai was pressing down on him.

”Captain, be careful!” Qing Hu clenched his teeth and said.

”Man Tian, if you die, I’ll take over the Heavenly Gang War General troop,” Fei Bao glanced at Man Tian and said.

Man Tian was not angered by this. Often, the conversations between men revealed straightforwardness and friendship. He just glanced at Fei Bao and answered, ”Your personality isn’t suited for being the chief of the Heavenly Gang War Generals. If I don’t make it back alive, I already have a candidate in mind.”

After these words, Qing Hu and Fei Bao left. Their strength wasn’t lacking but they were too exhausted from the previous battles and heavily injured, making it nearly impossible to fight against Demon Wolf—a foe that even Man Tian must face with all his might.

Boom!

Shortly after Qing Hu and Fei Bao left, the clearing where Man Tian and Ye Tianchen stood suddenly darkened; they both furrowed their brows and stared at the sky, only to see it entirely obscured, and a small hill crashed down towards them.

To casually bring down a mountain peak showed incredible strength, akin to turning the clouds with a flip of the hand, and controlling the rain with the cover of the hand, even Ye Tianchen was greatly surprised. He could manage the feat, but never with such ease. Neither he nor Man Tian had seen Demon Wolf, but they were already under his attack. The mountain peak might have been thrown from a distance, a testimony to terrifying power.

Thud!

With a loud crash, the mountain peak came falling down. Both Ye Tianchen and Man Tian quickly dodged and rushed to the top of the peak, as the area below was already masked in dust, obscuring their view of the surroundings.

”I’ll take action later, just watch, and if there’s a chance, rescue the top ten students who are challenging the trial!” Captain Man Tian whispered to Ye Tianchen.

”I don’t mind you taking action, after all, I’m just here to see the fun, but I believe he won’t let me go easily either, and as for your wanting to rescue ten outstanding students, I don’t think it will be that easy,” Ye Tianchen said.

”Just don’t make a move, you don’t want to die young, do you?” Captain Man Tian asked with a smile.

”Aren’t you young too, do you want to die?” Ye Tianchen asked with a smile in return.

”You little...”

”Here it comes!”

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen froze, looking up at the sky very seriously; he felt a powerful oppressive force bearing down on him and Captain Man Tian again.

By now, there was no longer any misunderstanding between him and Captain Man Tian. Ye Tianchen had not known that Captain Man Tian held any grudges against him, but now, having seen Ye Tianchen’s strength, Captain Man Tian truly began to regard him differently. He also felt that although Ye Tianchen was somewhat arrogant and unreliable, he wasn’t a bad person, just sometimes annoying.

It’s often because people don’t spend time with each other or understand each other that misunderstandings occur. Now, although Captain Man Tian and Ye Tianchen aren’t exactly close buddies, they won’t undermine each other, as they both recognize that their common enemy is the Demon Wolf, an opponent that everyone must take seriously.

Bang!

Another loud noise as a mountain peak was hurled down, Ye Tianchen and Captain Man Tian were both startled. They hadn’t expected the Demon Wolf to throw two mountain peaks in succession. The strength alone was astonishing. For instance, Qing Hu and Fei Bao could smash a mountain peak with one punch. As Heavenly Gang War Generals, they definitely had the strength to do so. However, to uproot and hurl two mountain peaks as weapons was not something ordinary people could manage, requiring immense strength and the ability to control the force of the mountains effectively.

The second mountain peak crashed down, and both Ye Tianchen and Captain Man Tian quickly dodged. Although unharmed, they were still quite shocked. Until now, they hadn’t even seen the Demon Wolf, was it attacking them from a distance, or did it think that there was no need to strike personally?

”This guy’s strength is indeed freakish!” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but frown as he spoke.

”He’s very strong, we can’t be careless. When the time comes, just adapt to the situation and rescue the ten outstanding students, I’ll cover the retreat!” Captain Man Tian said earnestly.

”Better think about how to dodge the third mountain peak first...”

Boom! Another loud sound erupted, and as Ye Tianchen and Captain Man Tian were speaking, the third mountain peak came crashing down. Both were incredibly surprised and still couldn’t understand what the Demon Wolf was up to. It had yet to show itself, simply throwing three massive mountain peaks. Did it think that would be enough to kill them?

Whoosh!

Before Ye Tianchen could react, Captain Man Tian charged forward, facing the descending third mountain peak with a punch.

Beep!

A streak of golden light shot out, directly hitting the center of the mountain peak, and Captain Man Tian charged boldly forward. The third mountain peak exploded, unable to block him.

Little did he know, just as Captain Man Tian shattered the third mountain peak and soared into the air, Ye Tianchen suddenly gasped and shouted loudly:

”Be careful!” (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com, and also spread your monthly support. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
