"How embarrassing." Luo Xiaobei couldn't stand it anymore and turned his face away.
Although he was usually very sarcastic, he had known Zhang Xi for quite some time. Seeing Zhang Xi begging them like a groveling dog, Luo Xiaobei found him rather pathetic.
Jiang Chu also felt that Zhang Xi's behavior was too boring.
A grown man who bleeds but doesn't shed a tear, what kind of play is he putting on now?
"Pumpkin, I'll listen to you, you're the captain," Chu Yun said to Luo Xiaonan, giving his good friend face.
Luo Xiaonan glanced at Zhang Xi, and after a long pause, said, "You should surrender."
"Thank you, thank you!" Zhang Xi surrendered with tears in her eyes.
The virtual battle has now come to a conclusion, with Jiang Chu successfully "winning" for the first time as a survivor.
The room returned to calm.
As Luo Xiaonan unloaded her equipment and left the room, she walked up to Jiang Chu and said, "Thank you."
"Leave a way out for others, so you can meet again in the future." Jiang Chu said calmly, "If it weren't for the fact that he would also have to go to the battlefield to serve the country in the future, I really wouldn't want him to have an easy time."
"You've really matured," Luo Xiaonan patted him on the shoulder and praised, "Master Jiang is so magnanimous!"
"Absolutely!" Jiang Chu grinned. "I'm starving! Treat me to a midnight snack!"
"Alright, let's have a big meal tonight! Young Master Luo will pay for everything!" Luo Xiaonan said generously.
"Great!" Jiang Chu and Luo Xiaobei cheered, raising their hands.
The three of them walked out of the room, only to find Yang Chen and the others standing opposite them.
As soon as Zhang Nan saw Jiang Chu come out, he clenched his fists in anger, wanting to rush over and fight Jiang Chu.
After all, he had been tortured to the point of wishing he were dead by Jiang Chu before, and in the end, Jiang Chu even shot him in the head. It was just too tragic.
Jiang Chu glanced at the other person coldly, without saying a word.
The moment Zhang Nan and Jiang Chu's eyes met, Zhang Nan suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
He recalled the fear he had felt when he was dominated by Jiang Chu.
"Stop messing around!" Yang Chen reached out and stopped Zhang Nan, saying calmly, "Losing your skills and then fighting is too shameful."
"Yang Chen, how dare you speak like that? Have you forgotten who you are?" Zhang Nan snapped.
You, Yang Chen, are nothing but a dog raised by my Zhang family. How dare you bare your teeth at me?
Yang Chen ignored him and instead said to Luo Xiaonan, "A bet is a bet. Let's make a deal. I'll give you 2 million KP!"
Luo Xiaonan nodded without being polite.
The two soldiers quickly opened a transaction system similar to WeChat.
After scanning Luo Xiaonan's fingerprints, Yang Chen transferred 2 million KP to Luo Xiaonan.
"Thanks!" Luo Xiaonan nodded slightly.
"Let's gamble again if we have the chance!" Yang Chen was much more cheerful than when he arrived. He smiled and turned to leave.
Zhang Xi waved to Zhang Nan and Chen Weilin: "Let's go!"
Zhang Xi did not speak to Jiang Chu at all.
After all, he lost too much face in the virtual combat, and he hasn't recovered yet.
Chu Yun glanced at Zhang Xi and Zhang Nan, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The brothers' overall combat strength has decreased rather than increased.
Their eyesight and physical strength have not declined, but their intelligence has decreased.
Zhang Xi dropped from 103 to 91.
Zhang Nan's case was even more outrageous; his score dropped from 110 to 85, a full 25 points lower, indicating he was quite frightened beforehand.
Moreover, intelligence is not a very constant metric; it is often difficult to improve, but it can plummet when it declines, making it very difficult to control.
With less than two days left until the deadline for conscription and combat capability assessment, time is running out for them.
Hearing Zhang Xi speak, Zhang Nan, no matter how unhappy he was, could only leave dejectedly.
However, before leaving, he still glared fiercely at Jiang Chu.
Chen Weilin did not leave, but stared at Jiang Chu, looking resentful.
"Vilin, aren't you leaving?" Zhang Xi asked in surprise.
"I'm not leaving. I'm going to settle accounts with Jiang Chu!" Chen Weilin sneered.
Settle accounts? What the hell are you talking about! You fickle woman, you've definitely got your eye on Jiang Chu!
Zhang Xi inwardly grumbled.
Although Jiang Chu let him off the hook today through Luo Xiaonan's help, he was not grateful.
Jiang Chu, just you wait and see. Don't think you'll be smug forever!
The three of them left.
Jiang Chu glanced at Chen Weilin and shrugged, saying, "You really hold a grudge, don't you?"
Although he spoke in a teasing tone, Jiang Chu still admired Chen Weilin quite a bit.
Despite being tormented by Jiang Chu, Chen Weilin's intelligence not only didn't diminish, but actually increased a bit! Now, this girl's overall combat strength has actually broken through the top 350 threshold!
"Of course I hold a grudge!" Chen Weilin sneered. "We're classmates, and you bullied me like that just now! Besides, how did you tie me up?"
If Jiang Chu were still an eighteen-year-old child, he certainly wouldn't have understood the hidden meaning in Chen Weilin's words.
But Jiang Chu was, after all, a 26-year-old veteran, and he knew, of course, that Chen Weilin was deliberately saying it for Luo Xiaonan to hear.
"It wasn't intentional, don't mind it," Jiang Chu said calmly. "Xiao Nan knows that I have no practical combat experience."
"Yes, I know!" At this crucial moment, Luo Xiaonan very considerately took the blame.
"Fine, just you wait. I'll go to Longdu Military Academy with you sooner or later, and see how I deal with you then!" Chen Weilin said angrily.
"How did you know I wasn't going to Tiannan Military Academy?" Jiang Chu asked with a smile.
"You know perfectly well why I'm asking." Chen Weilin gave Luo Xiaonan an ambiguous look before leaving with an awkward smile.
