Ruan Xiong is not very old, probably around twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
He is of medium build, well-mannered, and looks like a natural secretary.
So Xia Chujian didn't understand why this kind of person had to come and grab the position of a squad leader of the Star Marines.
Even if I want to avenge my father, isn't this method too cost-effective?
Xia Chujian pondered in his heart, but remained calm on the surface. He nodded and said, "Is it Secretary Ruan?"
Ruan Xiong also nodded, with his hands behind his back, looking gentle and elegant, and said with a smile: "I am Ruan Xiong, the third secretary of the captain's office of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet."
"Are you Xia Chujian? Candidate for squad leader of the 044th Squadron, 144th Company, 4th Battalion of the Star Marines?"
Xia Chujian's mouth twitched, thinking that the prefix of this title was really long.
This is really a small piece of meat, and some people are arguing...
She remained calm and said calmly, "It is me. Shall we begin the challenge now?"
Ruan Xiong shook his head. "I still need to announce the rules. Don't you already know the rules?"
Xia Chujian said, "Rules? Isn't it just a challenge? Whoever kills the other wins."
Ruan Xiong smiled meaningfully and said, "It can be seen that Captain Xia is an eclectic person."
"However, the necessary procedures must still be followed."
As he spoke, he raised his hand.
In the transparent cubicle, a talker on the glass wall began to make sounds.
"Now I announce the rules of the challenge. The challenger may not aim to kill the opponent."
"Once the opponent is unable to fight back, the challenger needs to stop the action."
"The challenged party may make every effort to defeat the other party and, if their life is threatened, may use all possible means."
"Both sides can only use weapons approved by the military."
"Weapons not permitted by the military shall not be used."
"Once discovered, they will be immediately treated as defeated."
Xia Chujian listened attentively, very confused: "...That's it? This is the rule?"
Ruan Xiong raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't this enough?"
Xia Chujian said seriously: "What's enough? We have to fight to know whether we win or lose!"
Ruan Xiong shook his head and said, "If I remember correctly, Captain Xia is not a genetically evolved person."
"And I am a D-class genetic evolver."
"There is a wall between genetically evolved people and ordinary people."
"Captain Xia, you don't think that an ordinary person like you can defeat a genetically evolved person, right?"
Xia Chujian said, "We haven't fought yet, how do you know you can't win? I've never been the type to give up before the fight."
Ruan Xiong nodded: "I see. It turns out Captain Xia is the kind of person who won't turn back until he hits a wall."
Xia Chujian didn't want to waste time talking to him and said directly: "Let's do it!"
She was about to unleash her Xuannv Qingyao Titanium Mech when she heard Ruan Xiong say, "Captain Xia, we don't necessarily have to fight to the death."
"Although I challenge you, I can also admit defeat immediately."
Xia Chujian: “…”
Are you kidding her?!
Is there something wrong with this person?
Xia Chujian frowned and said coldly: "Ruan Xiong, I don't have time to joke with you!"
Ruan Xiong hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Captain Xia, I want to discuss something with you..."
As he spoke, he looked in the direction of the surveillance camera on the glass wall and made a gesture.
Then, there seemed to be a flash on the surveillance camera.
Ruan Xiong nodded and said, "Okay, the surveillance here has been turned off now."
"I specifically sought this opportunity to negotiate a deal with Captain Xia."
Xia Chujian placed her hand on the red spider lily necklace around her neck and said calmly, "I'll give you a minute."
Ruan Xiong said: "As long as you promise me, I will immediately admit defeat. You will be the team leader, and I will only be a space marine under your command."
Xia Chujian said: "No, I never make promises easily."
"Since today is a challenge, let's do it!"
She released her Xuannv Qingyao Titanium Mecha.
A black and silver light flashed, and Xia Chujian was already completely enveloped in the mecha.
Ruan Xiong's expression suddenly changed. He said in a deep voice, "Captain Xia, I told you, as long as you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Xia Chujian's sniper rifle had already been loaded out, and the black muzzle was directly against Ruan Xiong's forehead.
Ruan Xiong felt the cold and murderous texture of the sniper rifle, and his back suddenly broke out in sweat.
He no longer cared about negotiating terms with Xia Chujian and said quickly, "Captain Xia, as long as you promise me to kill the remaining eight people on your team, I will immediately admit defeat!"
Xia Chujian was a little surprised: "What did you say? You want me to kill my teammates?"
Ruan Xiong said coldly, "Captain Xia has just arrived at our Fifth Interstellar Fleet. I'm afraid he doesn't know what kind of ruthless people your team members are!"
"They are incredibly audacious. Not only do they frequently engage in scheming against one another within the Star Marines, they even dare to attack their superiors!"
"My father, Ruan Qiang, was once the captain of the Fifth Starship, but because he offended them, he was murdered by them!"
"I endured humiliation and joined the army. As a genetically evolved person, I was forced to serve as a small secretary, all to avenge my father!"
When Xia Chu heard that he was indeed avenging his father, she felt a little bit of admiration for him.
She put away her sniper rifle and said calmly, "You're trying to drag me down with your one-sided statement."
"Ruan Xiong, if your brain isn't strong enough, don't use your IQ to challenge other people's patience."
Seeing that Xia Chujian was unmoved, Ruan Xiong suppressed his anger and said, "Of course I have evidence!"
"I've collected a lot of evidence in the past few years in the captain's room of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet."
