“Brother Wang, we’re willing to follow you.” The young man in camouflage immediately replied. These people had only recently entered the second tier, and their mission in Kyoto was only protection, so they had no opportunity to use their strength. They wanted to take this opportunity to show off their skills.
The other soldiers echoed his sentiments.
"That's right. If you're scared, just go back. I don't expect you civilian psychics to do anything for the country."
"Haha, a bunch of kids who've just turned 18 and they're already thinking they're heroes."
"Go home and drink your milk."
The second-tier soldiers' words were quite sharp, which shows that humans really shouldn't have overly powerful abilities.
“You, you all…” Leng An had never seen such a scene before. In his previous life, he had hardly interacted with any government officials. In his education, these people were supposed to be great, selfless, and kind.
At least until the end of the world.
"Huixin, will you stay or not?" Li Xuanzu ignored the sarcastic remarks of the group; there were too many people around, and killing them would cause trouble.
"I came down the mountain for the sake of all living beings. Since something is threatening them, I will do everything in my power." Huixin looked at the mountain of corpses before him with a solemn expression, but he did not think of retreating.
"Fine, if you're not leaving, I'm not leaving either." Li Xuanzu had already guessed that Huixin would stay. After all, Huixin from Leng An's previous life died here, and he didn't want Huixin to die, at least not now.
"Did you even understand what I said? Retreat! We have no advantage in numbers or combat strength. Why are you playing your ridiculous heroism in the apocalypse? Retreat!!!" Leng An was already furious. This was too childish.
It's not his fault; he chose to advance even when he knew he was outmatched, and even when he had a way out.
If there is no way to retreat, then open up the path forward. What our predecessors did is admirable.
But now, with ample time to retreat, these people seem eager to try, which makes Leng An unable to remain calm.
The other four members of Leng An's team also decided to retreat, while Qian Li chose to follow Li Xuanzu.
“Leng An, you’re wrong about one thing. We do have a numerical advantage, but as for combat strength…” Li Xuanzu squinted, staring intently in the direction of the small mountain village.
Leng An listened, utterly speechless. Don't be fooled by Li Xuanzu's seemingly easygoing nature; you could never persuade him. In other people's eyes, he was the epitome of blind self-confidence.
"Hahaha, good lad, you've got guts. You're worthy of being a prodigy of our Dragon Kingdom, unlike some people who only think about retreating. My name is Wang Wei, what's yours?" The officer named Wang Wei stepped forward and tried to pat Li Xuanzu on the shoulder, but was slapped away.
"Get lost." Li Xuanzu's tone was cold. Anyone who had no benefit to him was utterly hopeless in trying to get close to him.
He didn't want to get involved with such a group of people, lest they create another farcical story of brotherhood on the battlefield.
"Fine, fine, young man, full of vigor, good indeed." Wang Wei gritted his teeth, and the soldiers around him also gathered around, trying to put some pressure on Li Xuanzu.
Li Xuanzu gave Qian Li a look, and Qian Li understood. She immediately used her spiritual energy, and a huge gravitational force pressed down.
Suddenly, all the second-tier soldiers, including Wang Wei, went weak in the knees and knelt on the ground.
"Ugh, can't you understand human language? I said, get lost!" Li Xuanzu said, and the surrounding temperature rose, a heat wave swept towards dozens of soldiers, throwing them several meters away.
Wang Wei struggled to his feet and remained silent.
He was the one who spoke rudely first, which made Li Xuanzu very unhappy, regardless of whether the sentence involved him.
If others can use words to disgust their own kind in the apocalypse, then Li Xuanzu needs to warn them.
However, the other party seemed not to have understood Li Xuanzu's good intentions, and even held a grudge against him.
