The next day, everyone gathered again, and then heard from the seventh sister that Mei was going to give up the position of captain, and that Yuno asked to exchange partners.
Although everyone was a little surprised that Mei gave up the captaincy, they were not unacceptable. After all, Fang Zheng's command ability in the previous battle was obvious to all. Of course, considering that Mei had considerable popularity and reputation among the children, Fang Zheng was eventually appointed as the captain of the 13th team, and Mei was the deputy captain.
On the contrary, there is another thing that is more troublesome...
To be honest, everyone else was very surprised when they heard what Yuno said. Like Mei, they couldn't understand why Yuno wanted to switch partners just because he was not suitable for Fang Zheng's fighting style...
Obviously, both times the results were so outstanding.
"The higher-ups won't allow an excellent driver like X to be left idle, so we have to find him a new partner. Who among you is willing to make the swap?"
"this……"
Facing Seventh Sister's question, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.
"How about this, let's do an experiment."
"experiment?"
"Yes, to be honest, I overlooked... your acceptance of my fighting style. It's no wonder. After all, there is a huge difference in experience..."
As he said this, Fang Zheng scratched his head. He was indeed used to fighting. Not to mention calling out to the dragon, even if there was a real person standing opposite him, Fang Zheng would chop down the enemy without mercy. As for being chopped off and bleeding and having intestines spilled all over the floor, he had already become numb to it. It was not even a big deal to Fang Zheng.
But these kids…even though they were trained as warriors, they are still flowers in a greenhouse (literally), so it’s normal for them to be uncomfortable.
"It's not surprising that some people have a low tolerance for this situation, while others have a high tolerance."
For example, in the Western fantasy world, some adventurers can kill monsters as easily as killing chickens, and they can do it without any problems from beginning to end. But if you ask them to dissect the corpse of a monster, they will suddenly feel disgusted and would not want to do it even if they are beaten to death. There are many similar things.
"If we simply exchange partners, similar situations might occur again. So I think it would be better to fight with each of the other partners once to see who can better adapt to my fighting style, and then make a decision. How about that?"
Regarding Fang Zheng's proposal, the others hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
The question is… who comes first?
"I, I, I, I'll go first!!"
At this moment, Mirai, a lively brown-haired girl with twin ponytails, was the first to raise her hand happily.
"I felt really good when I was experimenting with X before, I think we will definitely be a good match!"
Just try it and you’ll know.
So in the next battle, Fang Zheng exchanged partners and drove the Qingshuang to fight Jiaolong. This time they faced a Jiaolong that was hidden in the earth and looked like a giant snake. Because the opponent's attack was too elusive, Fang Zheng finally ordered others to nail Jiaolong's body to death, and he raised his sword and pierced the opponent from head to tail, killing him.
There's nothing much to say about the battle itself, the problem is after the battle...
"Well, so disgusting..."
Mirai climbed out of the cockpit with a pale face, and only had time to say this sentence before she fell down and went to the infirmary to follow Yuno's footsteps.
Okay, one out.
"As expected, as vice-captains, I should be paired with X!"
Mei bravely stood up and took the initiative to take on this important task.
Next, the 13th team faced a huge dragon in the air. The dragon circled in the air and used its tentacles to attack downwards. Fang Zheng signaled others to attract the dragon's attention, and then he flew along the tentacles directly to the dragon's head and killed it with one blow, and then flew down from a height of nearly 100 meters.
This time, Mei didn't even have time to say anything. After returning to the hangar, she was taken directly to the infirmary.
She is afraid of heights.
That leaves only...
"Is everything ok? Heart??"
Looking at the last "survivor", Mirai, Mei and Yuno all showed worried expressions. Before, they could not personally understand why Yuno was so resistant to being manipulated by Fang Zheng, but after experiencing it themselves, they immediately understood. The reason was that every battle of Fang Zheng was almost on the verge of life and death in their eyes.
Like when Fang Zheng pierced through the giant snake Jiaolong, Wei Li really thought he would be eaten. And when he dealt with the flying Jiaolong next time, when he finally defeated Jiaolong, Mei really thought he would fall to his death from the sky.
Fear of death is an innate instinct of all living things, and Fang Zheng is no exception. However, with his current strength, there are very few things that can make him feel the threat of death. For example, piercing through the opponent's body, falling from a height of 100 meters, Fang Zheng has similar coping skills in his mind. It's like when a big guy kills a boss with only a little blood left. It's thrilling for a rookie to watch, as if the opponent will be killed in the blink of an eye, but the big guy can kill the boss directly with this little blood.
After all, it's so familiar that some people are even more ruthless and can complete the game just by listening with their eyes closed.
For the big guys, it’s all “sit down, basic drills, don’t be silly.”
But for the rookies, they dare not do anything except shouting "666". If they are asked to try, they would never dare to do so.
And what Fang Zheng did was actually just synchronizing his spirit with the other party, and then increasing the synchronization value. Therefore, during the battle, because Fang Zheng's spirit was as hard as iron, the girls who were the pistils could still barely maintain their composure on the surface even if they were scared to tears in their hearts.
It's just like in a horror movie, even if you encounter a ghost, as long as there is someone supporting you, you can still remain calm.
But when the battle was over and they returned to the hangar to disconnect, without Fang Zheng's spiritual support, the girls were naturally overwhelmed by the accumulated fear.
Now that Yuno, Mirai and Mei have all been defeated, the only member of the 13th Team who has not yet fought with Fang Zheng is the one codenamed 556 Xin.
Kokoro is the most mature and gentle girl in the 13th team. She has long curly hair in a grey color and always smiles. She gives people a gentle and peaceful aura and is loved by everyone. Although they are the same age, compared to the somewhat strong Mei, the lively Mirai and the somewhat lonely Yuno, Kokoro is more like a big sister who likes to take care of people.
So in the eyes of others, a girl as gentle and kind as Xin would definitely not be able to adapt to Fang Zheng's wild fighting style.
Not to mention... this battle is different from the previous ones.
This time, the Thirteenth City will exchange magma fuel with other cities for "kissing", and this process will naturally attract a large number of dragons to attack the city. It can be imagined that this battle will be more dangerous than the sporadic dragon battles they encountered before, and in this case, Fang Zheng's fighting style will naturally be more terrifying and terrible.
Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, a gentle, kind and considerate girl like Xin is completely unsuitable to fight with Fang Zheng.
She might even be scared to tears.
"Please don't worry, guys."
However, facing the dissuasion of his companions, Xin just smiled and shook his head.
"I believe I can cooperate well with X. Besides, this operation is quite important, isn't it?"
"That being said..."
After hearing Xin's answer, the others didn't know what to say. This test was also ordered by the higher-ups. After all, the higher-ups also found out that even if Fang Zheng's fighting style would scare the little girls to death, at least it would be fine during the battle. And unlike 02, who would kill his partner, these females were at most stimulated mentally, and they didn't even need to rest their bodies.
So from the above point of view, this is not a problem at all.
Hearing this, Fang Zheng also raised his head and glanced at Xin, who smiled and waved at him, and Fang Zheng also smiled and nodded. But at this moment, suddenly, a fat man blocked Fang Zheng's way. He was Xin's partner - Tai.
This is a little fat boy who loves to eat very much. He always eats non-stop on weekdays. He is a greedy big belly, but he is kind-hearted and fat, and he is a little fat boy with a good personality.
However, at this moment, he was glaring at Fang Zheng fiercely.
"X, you must protect her in this battle. You must not let her get hurt. Otherwise, I...I will never let you go!"
As he spoke, the fat boy clenched his fist and waved it in front of Fang Zheng. Looking at his expression, Fang Zheng couldn't help laughing and reached out to pat the fat boy on the shoulder.
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I won't let her get hurt..."
Fang Zheng said this, glanced at Xin again, and then looked away.
To be honest, he didn't tell the fat girl that maybe her heart's ability to withstand stress was stronger than that of the other girls.
Why? It's very simple. Look, a beautiful girl, quiet, sophisticated, gentle and kind - what is this? This is Yamato Nadeshiko!
And anyone with the attribute of Yamato Nadeshiko is basically black, okay! !
Fang Zheng didn't discriminate against Yamato Nadeshiko. It was just that he had traveled through so many worlds and the Yamato Nadeshiko he had seen were basically of the same character.
He is gentle and kind in daily life. He can cry for the death of a bird and worry about a cat. He seems so kind that he doesn't even dare to kill a chicken.
But when they are really angry, they can do anything, and their hearts are as hard as iron, just like a serial killer...
Fang Zheng is not talking nonsense, he has evidence!
For example, Shiba Miyuki from the world of Magic High School, everyone regards her as a typical representative of Yamato Nadeshiko, but in fact she is an extreme brother complex. After Tatsuya Shiba died, she went crazy and destroyed several cities in the United States, killing tens of millions of people.
And there is Katsura Kotonoha, a lady from a rich family, a typical representative of Yamato Nadeshiko. She is the type who never fights back or talks back at school, and is even considered easy to bully by her classmates. But in fact, she has been practicing Iai-slash since she was a child. I heard that in the game, beheading and slitting throats are all done cleanly and quickly, killing in one blow. If it were the girl Fang Zheng knew, once she exploded, she would also beat the person who bullied her to pieces, and later she would use the power of the Katsura family to deal with the other party.
The same goes for Sanhua Reiya. On the surface, he looks polite, nodding and bowing to everyone he meets, with an attitude of being docile and respectful. But when it comes to chopping zombies, he is more ruthless than anyone else, and even Walnut has to retreat away from him.
It can be said that women with the characteristics of Yamato Nadeshiko are capable of going to the battlefield and working in the kitchen. They can kill people with a knife and cook with a knife - just don't be a human meat bun.
This is also the reason why Fang Zheng would shy away from similar girls in many worlds. Yamato Nadeshiko is too scary. Either she has a high combat power, or she is black when cut open. Add these two together, and she is almost the same as a murderous devil.
Of course, this behavior is not impossible from a psychological point of view. After all, Yamato Nadeshiko is also a human being, and everyone has a temper. It's just that Yamato Nadeshiko is just like an honest person. She usually keeps the grievances in her heart, and then explodes when she breaks through the critical point. As the saying goes, an honest person will bleed five feet when he is angry, and Yamato Nadeshiko is mostly like this.
Moreover, since most of the Yamato Nadeshiko were ladies from wealthy families, they were caged birds, so it was inevitable that there would be deviations in their education, so their values would be somewhat distorted, which also led to them not having the guilt and moral restraint of the ordinary world when they committed the crime. If ordinary people would feel guilty and remorseful after killing someone, then for them, killing someone is really no different from killing a chicken.
Some people may even have more twisted thoughts, such as "I will kill you and then commit suicide" or "this way you will belong to me forever" - Fang Zheng has had this experience firsthand.
So Fang Zheng actually prefers to be with lively girls like Miki or Mirai, because these girls are quick to express their emotions, and if they feel wronged, they are just unhappy. They are easier to coax, and even if the two sides finally break up, it won't lead to a fatal incident.
It's nothing like Yamato Nadeshiko, who puts a knife to your neck and you don't know when you made her feel wronged and angry. What's more terrifying is that for Yamato Nadeshiko, once she draws the knife, no matter how much you apologize or regret, it's useless... just wait for death.
Therefore, for most men, Yamato Nadeshiko is simply their dream lover and wife.
But for Fang Zheng, his first reaction when he saw Yamato Nadeshiko was that his neck felt cold and his hair stood on end...
In Fang Zheng's view, the heart also has this potential.
As to whether it is true or not, we will know during the battle.
