Chapter 119 Who should be the captain?
After all members of Team 1B completed the shock gun training, they gathered together to select the captain for the actual combat simulation.
"Among the five of us, is there anyone who would like to volunteer to be the captain?" Pelene asked.
She glanced at Shu and Tong Wanwan, paused on Huo Han, and finally turned her gaze to Karen. She happened to meet his gaze, which was full of complex emotions, and smiled brightly.
"!" Karen's spirits lifted, and he decisively stood up and spoke first: "I'm willing to take the position."
Tong Wanwan frowned slightly.
This muscular boy is very confident in himself.
What he said was not a negotiation-style "I want to be the captain", but a statement-style "I am willing to take the role".
But what was a little embarrassing was that after Karen finished speaking, no one responded.
"Hey," Pelene said kindly, "How about this? If anyone else nominates themselves, the rest of us can vote to decide who will be captain."
"If not, the captain has decided it will be Karen-san. How about that?"
Deciding by voting is a fair way of selection and no one will have any objection.
"Then I'll vote for Karien first." Pelani took the lead in voting. "I definitely can't do it myself, but you can reconsider whether you want to run for captain."
At this moment, the girl who was talking and laughing looked like a completely different person from the one who secretly advised Karien to change teammates at the beginning.
Shu and Tong Wanwan looked at each other, somewhat hesitant.
She didn't want to be captain, but she didn't want Carreon to be it either.
If there were another choice...
"I'm running for election."
Suddenly, a clear and cold voice sounded in their ears.
It was Huo Han who spoke for the first time today.
What did she hear? The silent No.2 suddenly said he wanted to be the captain!
To Hiiragi, these words sounded like the sound of nature.
She immediately raised her hand and said without hesitation, "I vote for Huo Han!"
Hiiragi's dislike and distrust of Karien were clearly revealed on his face.
Karen was choked: "!"
At this moment, the vote count was tied at 1 to 1: Pelani voted for Karien, Shu voted for Huo Han, and only Tong Wanwan did not vote.
Moreover, the person Tong Wanwan votes for will directly determine the captain.
"What's going on?" System 1551 sighed helplessly. "How could they just hand over the final decision to me? Wanwan, this is just your first day meeting them! How do you know who's more suitable to be captain?"
Tong Wanwan shrugged in her heart and thought about it seriously.
Even though we've known each other for a short time,...his personality is quite obvious.
Karien has considerable personal abilities, but he's impulsive and has poor emotional control. If he were to become captain, he might lead the entire team into trouble.
Therefore, Tong Wanwan finally chose Huo Han.
In fact... she had occasionally glanced at it before.
Huo Han finished shooting long ago. For the rest of the time, his cold gaze remained fixed on the four of them. It felt like he was silently observing his teammates' training.
Tong Wanwan guessed: He probably already has a rough plan in mind.
"In that case, Huo Han will be the captain!" Hiiragi said happily.
Karen: “?!”
His temper was really fierce, and he blurted out a question: "Tong Wanwan, you did this on purpose! Is it because of what I said to the instructor?"
"This vote is not fair at all!"
His thoughts were straightforward and stubborn: Tong Wanwan was definitely holding a grudge because of the embarrassing incident and was seeking revenge.
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere dropped to freezing point again.
Unexpectedly, Karien "exploded" at this moment. Tong Wanwan felt strange and funny.
This person has said "unfair" twice today.
Before she could say anything, someone got in front of her and interrupted Karen.
"Karen!" The first teammate to offer help was surprisingly Perrine. "You were indeed at fault for what happened today, weren't you? You were the one who kept making things difficult for and ostracizing the new student. And, everyone saw it—Tong Wanwan made her decision after careful consideration."
Pelene looked righteous and defended her teammates: "Karen, what's your reason for losing your temper?"
Karien was stunned, stuck by Pelene's sudden change of attitude.
At the beginning, it was Pelani who persuaded him to ask the instructor to "switch teammates"...
If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been scolded for no reason.
For a moment, he felt like there was something stuck in his throat and didn't know what expression to make.
Huo Han had no interest in understanding the twists and turns between these people, nor did he want to spend time mediating.
The captain, who had a cold personality, lowered his eyes slightly and directly stated his plan.
"No matter what terrain you randomly draw, don't be the team that attacks head-on."
"Our tactic is to adopt a roundabout and encircling approach."
He continued, "Given that our opponent is Team A, led by Bai Shi, I'm not sure how thoroughly Bai Shi studies tactics. Therefore, the players must remain vigilant during the flanking maneuvers."
"I'll explain the specifics later." Huo Han, clearly fully prepared, turned his gaze to Karen and said bluntly, "Hiragi and Pelene are more suited to rear-end attacks. I have other plans for Tong Wanwan. The flanking operation will be handled by you and me. Any objections?"
Karien opened his eyes wide, obviously not expecting that Huo Han would entrust such an important operation to him.
He nodded subconsciously.
"Okay," Huo Han glanced at Karen, a hint of imperceptible satisfaction flashing across his eyes.
As long as you are not stupid enough to disobey orders, you have a chance of winning this game.
"The battlefield situation is ever-changing. I can't predict every step accurately," Huo Han lowered his eyelids. "After the random map comes out, we still have ten minutes to discuss strategy."
His tone was light, but the sense of oppression was no less—
"To win the simulated battle, you must follow instructions and arrangements."
The other four people cheered up: "Understood!"
Everyone is equal in the desire to win.
Soon, the instructor announced the random maps drawn by the five groups: Group 1 "Desert Chess", Group 2 "Land of Cloud Lake", Group 3 "Island of Tianchi", Group 4 "Wilderness Town", and Group 5 "Misty Forest".
The theme and terrain of each group are completely different. Within one hour after the simulated battlefield opens, the team that first "kills" the enemy camp wins.
When the final number of survivors of two teams is the same, the instructor will select the team with better performance as the winner based on the multi-angle live broadcast of the two teams, and the entire team will receive an A+ score.
The losing team will be scored based on their overall and individual performance.
