Gu Li, who was providing support everywhere in the arena, became the focus of everyone's attention. Some people swallowed hard as they looked at her seemingly tireless body.
"Isn't this a bit too strong? What are the new recruits the Federation sent to District Eleven this year supposed to say?"
"I heard that person's name is Gu Yuqing? He's known as the Federation's Star in recent years, the strongest individual soldier, right?"
The man next to him, who was still holding a gun, rolled his eyes openly from inside his helmet upon hearing this.
"What are you thinking?" He pulled the trigger again: "Don't think that just because we both have the surname Gu, we can get away with this. That guy who claims to be the strongest has only been injected with drugs."
"In all these years, have you ever heard of Gu Yuqing ever going to the battlefield?"
The man suddenly realized.
Putting aside whether Gu Yuqing is really as powerful as the legends say, just look at the fact that he hasn't dared to go to the front lines for an internship even once in the past five years.
No matter how powerful he is, he's nothing more than a coward with strength but no substance.
Gu Li, who had already reached the area directly below the cave entrance, suddenly received a message.
The voice on the other end of the hooded communicator was urgent: "We can't get any closer! I repeat, everyone immediately retreat to the hospital and abandon your current positions!"
"I repeat, everyone immediately retreat back into the hospital and abandon your current positions!"
Gu Li paused in the speed at which he drew his longsword from the low-level creature's body, and a commotion began to break out not far away.
Someone was frantically gesturing to her.
She clicked her tongue, and at the same time, the ceiling above her head began to groan under the strain.
Gu Li turned around and headed towards the hospital.
Even if she's incredibly powerful now, she's still human. If she were really hit by the ceiling and still survived, that would be hard to explain.
She was running wildly over the bodies of countless low-level creatures, sparing the dead and sending the living to their deaths.
When I arrived at the hospital entrance, I was just the last person to enter.
The specially made door slammed shut behind her.
At the same time, a loud rumbling sound came from outside, and even the ground beneath their feet began to tremble.
In the huge hall, all the survivors of C01 and C02 were crammed into one space, yet they tacitly maintained silence.
Once the tremors subsided, another ominous rustling began to spread.
They knew that the missionary had finally taken action.
Everyone involuntarily looked at the girl at the front, her face hidden behind her helmet, making it impossible to see her expression.
But just standing there quietly brings a sense of peace.
Gu Li was thinking about something unrelated at the moment; the pain that should have appeared in her body was not showing up yet.
Even the starlight surging within me seemed to have increased.
Gu Li kept a close eye on the commotion outside as she waited.
They waited to see what kind of information Wang Li and his team would get from Du Rui.
Sure enough, a short while later, someone approached her: "Miss Gu Li, please come with me. The district chief has important business with you."
Gu Li silently followed him as he turned around, but her eyebrows under her helmet twitched slightly.
"The district chief of the second district is actually on the front lines?"
The soldier leading her forward, his heavy expression clearly improved, said proudly, "The district chief has always fought alongside us."
"He is also the only district chief in District 11 who will appear on the front line. We've arrived, please go in."
This is a conference room located on the top floor of the hospital.
The room was already full of people. Gu Li glanced around and even spotted a group of people in one section.
The square-faced man at the very front of the long table looked at her solemnly. She paused briefly at the doorway, then took off her helmet and walked over.
Chen Guo, the district chief of the second district, quietly looked at the girl who walked up to him, whose face still had a touch of childishness.
A sigh flashed in his eyes as he extended his hand to Gu Li: "Thank you for your help. I am Chen Guo, the district chief of the Second District."
Gu Li shook hands with him briefly: "Gu Li."
She could sense that her frail appearance, stemming from her weak genes, had attracted many eyes, both overt and covert.
Some of them looked contemptuous, some looked amazed, and a few had greedy, longing eyes that made Gu Li frown.
What exactly was the composition of this meeting?
There are all kinds of people here.
She looked at Chen Guo with a questioning gaze, but the man remained expressionless and told her to sit down and talk.
Chen Guo was pointing to the location below him.
There was a slight commotion in the meeting room, and several disapproving glances were directed at Gu Li, but Gu Li sat down as if nothing had happened.
He nodded to Chen Guo and asked, "Did you call me here for the battle plan or for the mysterious church?"
Chen Guo also sat down. His iron-fisted wrist carried immense power, and with a light glance downwards, everyone immediately composed themselves.
"This meeting is both a war council and a purge of the mysterious cult."
Everyone was instantly energized.
Chen Guo continued, "After our investigation, we have obtained evidence that the mysterious church has taken action after the two bases have encountered large-scale invasions by alien species."
Nobody knows what kind of plan was discussed at the higher-ups.
But as the meeting ended and everyone quickly dispersed, only Gu Li was stopped when he left.
"Do you feel it's unfair?"
Gu Li glanced at him and said, "People like you are always charging into battle, so it's nothing for a young person like me to contribute a little."
Hahahahahahahahahaha.
After showing off, I was met with a series of loud laughs from this person.
Gu Li simply shut his mouth and quickly walked away.
Just as she was about to leave, Chen Guo suddenly asked, "Are you really a new human?"
Gu Li's heart skipped a beat, but she turned around with a somewhat inexplicable expression: "What are you talking about?"
Chen Guo didn't look at her, but just muttered to himself, "I've never seen anyone endure so long among the alien species without needing treatment. The old lady was just asking out of concern."
Gu Li remained silent for a moment, then continued walking away.
A barely audible "thank you" drifted through the air.
The deployment was quickly set up.
This hospital, as the last resort in the emergency plan, is constructed entirely of special materials that can withstand attacks from missionary-level alien species for a short period of time.
The last weapon left on the rooftop is a mortar, the most powerful and effective weapon against aliens that the Federation has developed so far.
It takes ten minutes for the mortar to initiate target acquisition.
During this time, they would all be exposed to the missionary's eyes, and Gu Li's task was to stall for time as much as possible.
After successfully locating the enemy with mortars, they safely withdrew with their men.
She inexplicably became the team leader, and after a short rest, she led the team to open the inexplicably stuck courtyard amidst the sticky sounds that kept coming from outside the building.
Their team consisted of twenty men, all of whom were the most outstanding and experienced soldiers.
Meanwhile, the technicians who volunteered to activate the equipment were blocked in the middle, their faces pale.
Gu Li looked up calmly, signaling them not to make any rash moves.
Outside this small courtyard, all was quiet.
Yet it inexplicably instilled a sense of fear in people.
