Chapter 30 – Special Assignment (2/2)
Nuo Yi Feng wanted used the term “extremely ferocious” hoping to shatter Lei Yu’s thoughts of going. Lei Yu’s life story and encounters is well known to Nuo Yi Feng, a child that has suffered a pitiful life, yet his background and lack of experience was of no use to them yet. But the next words that came out of Lei Yu almost made everyone fall out of their seats.
“For this mission, is it okay for me to complete it alone?
“No!” Nuo Yi Long and Nuo Yi Feng both stood up at the same time. Originally wanting to speak up, Nuo Hu was actually surprised by them. He would have never thought that his father and his aunt would have such a big reaction.
“Commander, I think in this situation, having too many people go would make the wild beast more oppressive, so having a lot of people is not necessarily a good thing.” Lei Yu was worried the little wild beast may be killed by other people.
“I will go with you then!” Nuo Hu stood up.
The most worrisome situation has happened; the two that wanted to bravely participate were exactly the two that Nuo Yi Long and his sister did not want them to go. Yet it happens that the two would volunteer.
“He is indeed the son of Dragon Group’s commander, such courage!” At this time, Shangguan Rong also stood up. “I think this decision is final, Eagle Group should have results pretty quickly as well. Combining your strengths, your success rate should be quite high.”
“But…” Lei Yu did not want to let the Eagle Group participate, but a small soldier like him could not make too many demands. Without waiting for anyone else to say anything, Shangguan Rong was the first to leave the conference room.
But this situation cannot be all blamed on the Shangguan family, Eagle Group and Dragon Group were the two military regiments closest to the appearance of the wild beast, there would be no reason to look for another military group that’s further away right?
“All of you withdraw; Lei Yu and Nuo Hu stay behind.” Nuo Yi Long heavily sat down, waving his hands to imply for everyone to leave.
The only people left in the conference room were Nuo Yi Long, Nuo Yi Feng, Lei Yu, and Nuo Hu.
“You guys are really too impulsive! It is impossible to estimate a safety factor for this kind of mission, what should we do if an accident occurs? Do you guys not understand what exactly the Shangguan family was expecting from this mission?” Asked Nuo Yi Feng while frowning.
Lei Yu will never forget the people that have treated him well. Regardless of the reason why these two were so concerned for their safety, either to ensure the strength of Dragon Group or for the sake of their personal safety, Lei Yu will remember it with his heart.
“Just let me go alone, this will be considered training to me.”
“No, how can I be assured if you go alone? I’m going with you!” Said Nuo Hu.
“I don’t know how to deal with you two anymore.” Said Nuo Yi Long in a powerless manner. “We will be unable to accompany you two on the mission so you will have to count on yourselves.”
“Don’t worry, we will be careful!” Nuo Hu and Lei Yu both said.
Nuo Yi Feng took off a bracelet from her wrist and gave it to Nuo Hu, “this thing you should know what uses it has, when in a dangerous situation, it can at least protect the two of you.” As the aunt, how could she not take care of her nephew?
After a series of instructions, Lei Yu and Nuo Hu were both ready to go.
“How confident are you?” Asked Nuo Hu while driving the car with Lei Yu.
“I’m not sure.” Lei Yu tapping his legs: “But I don’t think we’ll have too much of a problem.”
“The Shangguan family are like this, letting others do the manual task while they sit in their office. Once the task is accomplished, they will run to the leaders and ask for credit and rewards, we’ve grown accustomed to it now” said Nuo Hu with indifference. “Anyway, since this situation has become the burden of Dragon Group and Eagle Group, the success of capturing the beast will be credited to them, failure in capturing or accidently killing the wild beast, the responsibility will be on our heads, this is fcuking bullshit!”
“Come on, you and I are still a long way from the destination. Once we arrive, we still have to join up with Eagle Group members.”
This incident is not considered too big since it has not disturbed that many people yet. Only assigning Tenglong country’s two elite groups – Dragon Group and Eagle Group; and then dispatching select elite troops of each group. If they were unable to ascertain the level of danger in this mission, then the safety factor could not be predicted, then normally Lei Yu and them would not be sent out. In case the wild beast were to enter a populated city, then the consequences would be disastrous.
The two drove to the edge of a forest about two hundred kilometers or more away from the city. With Nuo Hu’s driving skills, the time spent driving was about two hours; it would be impossible for Lei Yu to do this if he were to drive.
“Should be in the front, we should arrive once we pass this forest.” Lei Yu pointed to the forest in front and the car slowly stops at the edge.
“Greeting you two, I am a member of Eagle Group, called Hui Wei Tao” came a voice not too far away. Lei Yu and Nuo Hu turned around to look; a soldier dressed in a camouflage uniform then came over.
