Chapter 120 Pepper~
However, although these potions seem to be a lot, they will be consumed quickly when they are actually used up, especially since there is no supply now.
"Please use these medicines sparingly. This is all I have." Wen Le couldn't help but explain. After a pause, he added, "Of course, I hope there won't be any less medicine here. It would be best if no one could use it."
Everyone understood what he meant. If drugs were used, someone would get hurt, something no one wanted to see. So the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly quieted down, and everyone fell silent.
"Then let's try our best to avoid getting hurt," the squad leader said. "Everyone, have some confidence and don't be so discouraged. At least we're all in this together, we have so many resources to use, and we even have a three-star healer protecting us. We're already very lucky." He deliberately made his words light and lively to lighten the mood. "Maybe there are people who are worse off than us. They don't have a healer."
At least if they were seriously injured, they had Wen Le to help treat them. Others would just have to endure it. He also felt that the arrangement of this mission was too deliberate. Why did they have to come when so many seniors didn't?
As first-graders, the school has only been underway for half a year and they have learned very little. In this situation, should we ask them to help or just cause trouble?
And after I came here, I experienced this series of things. Now that I calm down and think about it carefully, I feel that the whole thing is subtly inconsistent.
The monitor of Class C couldn't help but speculate: "Do you think the school arranged this on purpose? Like, they secretly organized a competition without telling us."
I have to tell the truth to this classmate. The school held a competition behind their backs.
"If that's the case, maybe the competition will be to see who gets more bases first!" Those who can be admitted to the Imperial Capital Military Management College are not fools. They didn't expect it before because the incident happened too suddenly. Now that someone mentioned it, they naturally noticed that there was something wrong.
"If that's the case, there must be more than just our school. Since it's a competition, there must be at least two schools. Otherwise, who can we compete with?"
"It makes me feel at ease knowing that there are people who are having the same hard time as us," another person said.
"If that's the case, then we should speed up and get more bases. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if people from other schools beat us to it. I'm sure the Dean's face will be as long as the sole of his shoe when he gets back."
Because everyone was speculating that this might be a competition, and if it was a competition, there would definitely be surveillance cameras watching their every move. In this case, it would be inappropriate to continue saying the instructors' nicknames. Otherwise, they would definitely skin themselves alive when they got back.
After all, hearing about something and hearing it with your own ears are two different things. You might just laugh off the former, but with the latter... you'd definitely get angry. No one would be happy if they heard someone give them a nickname in person.
"Tsk! Do you think the school is bored out of their mind? They have to mess around when there's nothing to do. Are they short on funds so they're doing a livestream or something to secretly earn tips from the audience?"
The Pentagram's five-year ranking competition is a very famous example, and this type of live broadcast is also very popular. I heard that you can earn a lot of credit points every time you broadcast live.
However, as soon as he said this, he was criticized by others: "Are you stupid? What kind of school is this? How can we compare with those ordinary universities? Look at where we are, a military base! Can we just let anyone see it? If you really want to broadcast it live, you can expect to be collectively sued in a military court!"
"Needless to say, the confidentiality agreement was definitely not memorized."
Being disliked, the person who was doing the live broadcast suddenly became embarrassed and stopped talking.
Everyone in the monitoring room was also surprised by the sharp intuition and guesswork of these students. The legion commander then smiled and couldn't help but praise: "Not bad, now you act like a military school student." To be honest, the reactions of these students were extremely disappointing at the beginning. They were almost no different from ordinary people. Now it seems that there is still something to watch.
He is also happy that his students are excellent. After all, these students are the future of the motherland. If they are too stupid, then what future does this country have?
At the same time, the first-year students of the other two schools also encountered the same thing. Their reactions were even more devastated than those of the Imperial Capital Military Control. Moreover, there were no senior healers like Wen Le among their classmates, so they naturally could not get any self-defense potions, and thus suffered a great loss.
The number of casualties was more than double that of the Imperial Capital Military Control, and due to insufficient preparation, they also faced a shortage of supplies. It was much worse than Wen Le and his men.
At least if you get injured under the Imperial Capital Military Control, there are medicines and people to treat you.
…
"A team reports that no trace of the enemy has been found."
"Team Two reports, no trace of the enemy found."
…
"Team 10 reports, no trace of the enemy found."
As the students in the investigation team sent back feedback, the class monitor frowned: "This is strange. Could it be that these people have disappeared?"
"Could it be that they're hiding and we haven't found them?" Lily suddenly said, "Based on what everyone just speculated, since this is a competition, the enemy is most likely the Ninth Army. They must include people from various military academies, and they're very familiar with everything taught in the academies."
If the guess is correct, then this is their biggest disadvantage, because the other side knows what they are going to do next while they know nothing about the enemy.
After all, everything taught in school has a traceable path, and those seniors have fought their way out of real mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Their experience and methods in fighting the enemy are naturally not comparable to those of them, a group of rookies.
Wen Le held his chin in his hand and fell into deep thought: "In this case, we have no choice but to create opportunities ourselves. It doesn't matter if they can hide. We can just use some special means to force them out."
Everyone's eyes suddenly turned to Wen Le, staring at him. The squad leader said, "If you have any ideas, tell us now. Don't keep us in suspense. Time is running out."
Wen Le smiled mysteriously and pulled out a bottle from the system space: "This contains pepper. I specially added a lot of good ingredients to it. As long as you sprinkle it out, I guarantee that anyone who touches it will sneeze non-stop."
The squad leader was about to reach out to take it, but upon hearing Wen Le's words, he quickly retracted his hand, not daring to touch it. It was as if Wen Le had taken out not a medicine bottle but some venomous snake or beast.
Lily looked at Wen Le in surprise: "When did you do this?" She didn't even know that Wen Xiaole actually started to have secrets.
She suddenly thought of a possibility and her eyes narrowed dangerously: "Wen Xiaole, you are not trying to use this to trick us on April Fool's Day, are you?" If you dare to say so, you are dead!
Because there were other people around, Lily didn't call Wen Le "Xiao Lezi" directly for the sake of her friend's face, but she looked at him with a very unfriendly look, as if she would punch him if Wen Le said something wrong.
Being hit on the heart of the matter, Wen Le had no choice but to explain dryly: "I have never thought about it this way. I just made it when inspiration suddenly struck me." Even if he really intended to use it to play a prank, he couldn't tell the truth at this time, otherwise he would be finished before the enemy could do anything.
Lily knew Wen Le well enough to know he wasn't telling the truth. But now wasn't the time to argue with him; she'd settle the score when she got back. He was incredibly bold to play a trick on her. She'd have to teach him a lesson.
"Do you still have this stuff? Take it all out." Lily spread her palms towards Wen Le without any hesitation. "Don't try to hide it. If I find out, we'll meet in the training room and have a good sparring match."
Wen Le could hear the threat in her voice. Fearing that if he was slow to act, he would upset the little girl and get beaten up when he got home, he quickly took out the remaining bottles hidden in the system space and placed them in Lily's hands. Then he looked at her eagerly and said, "They're all here. There really is no more."
It was almost like swearing to heaven.
Lily glanced at him, making sure he wasn't lying before withdrawing her hand with satisfaction: "You're a sensible kid."
Wen Le's three roommates were also nearby. When they saw Wen Le's cowardly look, they immediately sighed in their hearts. He was too cowardly, really. It was such an embarrassment for them boys.
Lily noticed Du Yu and the others' gazes and glanced over: "Why, do you have any objections?"
"No, no, no! No!" Du Yu and the other two quickly waved their hands in denial. What a joke! Wouldn't they be in for a fight if this female devil targeted them?
Wen Le glanced at them with disdain. "How dare you laugh at others with such a scoundrel like you?" They were all equally cowardly. "Our eldest brother shouldn't laugh at the second brother."
Du Yu and the other two looked up at the sky, looked down at others, but didn't look at Wen Le, pretending that they didn't see Wen Le's eyes.
"By the way, I have masks here." Wen Le took out a stack of masks from the system space and handed them to Lily, "Don't forget to wear a mask when spreading the medicine." Don't lure the enemy out but expose them first, otherwise it will be a waste of time.
Of course, these masks are not the rough ones from the Earth period. They are carefully made to ensure that no dust can get in after wearing them. They are just right for sprinkling pepper.
The squad leader rolled his eyes, came over and put his arm around Wen Le's neck like a good brother, and said with a smile: "Wen Xiaole, do you have any good things? If you have any, please share them quickly. In this special period, whether we can quickly win this battle depends on you."
Wen Le glanced at him and said, "Squad leader, you're being unkind. I can't wear such a tall hat." But as for the stuff... he really did have it~
