Chapter 994 - Moonlight Men! (2/2)

“Open the gates! We are Moonlight troops!” shouted Zhuang Shuo toward the watchtower of Divine Light Fortress gates. Behind him were the remaining 600-odd men looking like a group of refugees fleeing from famine.

There were few of them who were without injuries, but the exhausting half-month journey didn’t give them the mood to tidy up themselves.

“Stop approaching, or we will kill immediately!”

The response was immediate, but it was not what Zhuang Shuo wanted to hear.

F*ck, I risked my life for Moonlight, only to be shut out at the gates now?!

“Calm down, they don’t know what we have done. Changes take time.” Bai Xiaofei, who was being carried on a simple stretcher, watered Zhuang Shuo’s fury with an indifferent tone.

“Lie back down! Keep forgetting that you’re not allowed to move?!” Tan Xin immediately jumped out and pressed Bai Xiaofei back down.

After the Second Leader brought Bai Xiaofei back, everyone’s heart ached to see his condition, and only after hearing about what had happened at Savage Wolf Ridge did they know why he wanted to remain until the end.

Tan Xin, who had been tricked into leaving by Bai Xiaofei, became an entirely different person, currently never keeping her eyes off him.

“Good, good, I won’t move. Alright, don’t worry too much, someone will clear our name,” said Bai Xiaofei.

At that moment, the gates opened and around two hundred armed soldiers marched out, directly surrounding them.

Despite Bai Xiaofei’s early warning, the group still felt uncomfortable being treated in such a manner. However, no one lost their temper.

“How did you get Moonlight military uniforms? Who are you?!” the garrison captain questioned in a harsh tone.

Gritting his teeth, Zhuang Shuo was about to reply when Ye Qingtong stepped out.

“We are soldiers appointed by Her Majesty. We have just completed our mission of stopping the Sacks army, currently returning to report,” she said.

The soldiers in front of them had no idea the price of such an achievement. From 16,000 people to now only 600, and most were seriously injured, it was not easy for Ye Qingtong to be able to speak so calmly.

“Stopping the Sacks’ reinforcements?! Try to make up a better story! Who doesn’t know that in the past few days, all the fighting power of the Sacks has been sent to Divine Light? Don’t think that you can talk nonsense to protect these men just because you are a woman,” said the garrison captain coldly.

The soldiers immediately tightened their encirclement with weapons pointing at Bai Xiaofei’s group, ready to attack at any time.

Seeing this, the men immediately clenched their weapons. There was no fear in their eyes, only a fighting spirit. As long as Bai Xiaofei gave the order, they would immediately attack.

“Want to resist?! Capture them!” shouted the garrison captain.

“You’d better take back what you just said,” Bai Xiaofei’s icy voice echoed at the same time.

Getting off the stretcher, he walked straight to the garrison captain. Tan Xin didn’t press him back down again but supported him right away.

“What if I don’t?!” subconsciously retorted the garrison captain, looking at Bai Xiaofei who was full of fighting intent.

“I’ll cut you down!”

With that, the Bai Xiaofei who seemed so weak a second ago sprinted toward the garrison captain like a gale. Before she could even react, he had pressed her down on the ground.

The rest of the group also moved almost right after. Those who were in better conditions rushed straight out and caught the soldiers off guard. In less than 30 seconds, the 200-odd soldiers were collectively disarmed and detained.

“Boss, whatever happened to ‘remaining calm?’” Zhuang Shuo burst out laughing.

“Have I ever said such a thing? Why can’t I remember? Your ears stopped working, didn’t they?” Bai Xiaofei said with a serious face, then looked at the garrison captain. “You probably don’t know us. Let me introduce myself and the group behind me. We, soldiers of Moonlight, have contributed first-class merit by stopping a 300,000-strong Sacks army!”

As Bai Xiaofei’s voice echoed in the air, the 600-odd people immediately revealed unprecedented confidence on their faces.

Yes, that is us! We have created miracles with a force that was dozens of times weaker than the enemy!

Watching at the side, Ye Qingtong’s sight was blurred by tears, having witnessed for herself how this group of men, who used to tremble upon the sight of women, had completely overcome their fear!

From this moment on, Moonlight had real men!
