Chapter 123 - Spark Extra for alliance leader Jian Yanru Ni_because of the rain 27th update

On the other side, Zi Qing arrived at Zhao Han’s office, only to see Lin Zinuo was also there.

Lin Zinuo flashed a brilliant smile; she raised her request very seriously in front of Zi Qing to Zhao Han.

“Sister Zhao Han, I formally request to join the Sea Battle Department; I want to be a captain of a ship too.”

It looked like she got addicted to it.

“I have no objection to Sister Zinuo wanting to become a captain.

However, I think since Sister Zinuo has always been leading the Land Combat Team and is not very familiar with ships, she needs systematic training.

Also, she’ll probably have to start off as a reserve captain in the beginning.”

Zi Qing stated her thoughts very pragmatically.

“Hey, it’s no big deal, look at how well I was piloting before.

I think I’m completely up for the task.

Besides, it’s not a problem having two captains on such a big ship.”

Lin Zinuo quickly defended herself.

“Enough, stop arguing; both of you are deputy captains!”

Zhao Han stood up, displaying her pearly teeth as she announced.

“What?

We’re deputy captains?

Then who is the actual captain?”

Lin Zinuo and Zi Qing were both stunned, what was happening?

“Of course, it will be me; starting from now, I will serve as the captain of The Crane Orchid, and also the commander-in-chief of the Sea Battle Department.”

Zhao Han dropped the bombshell information outright.

“Ah!!!

Sister Zhao Han, you’re not joking, are you?

Don’t you have to command the entire twelve groups?”

Lin Zinuo stuttered in asking.

While Zi Qing was shocked, she also sensed something amiss but couldn’t figure out why Zhao Han would do this.

Zhao Han then showed a sly smile; it was clear she wasn’t acting on a whim but had thought this through thoroughly.

Then she stated very seriously, “Let me ask both of you, aren’t our Legion’s twelve groups ranked by strength?

We are ranked twelfth, which means, frankly, we’re the weakest in combat within the Legion.”

“That’s true.”

Though resentful, Lin Zinuo still nodded in agreement.

“So, we’ve become the logistics group.

Put bluntly, what are we doing now?

Isn’t it just housekeeping?

On the rare occasions we get to go on missions, what kind of missions are they?

You must be aware, right?

Today we go to Base A to pick up some weapons, tomorrow to Base B for some supplies, the day after to Base C to deliver provisions.”

Zhao Han’s tone grew heavier with each word.

Lin Zinuo and Zi Qing fell silent, not knowing what to say.

Actually, Lin Zinuo’s sudden wish to become a ship captain was her attempt to find a way out.

“So given this situation, we could completely shift our approach.

I’m not just assuming the position of captain; I want to redirect all our group’s resources to the Sea Battle Group, transferring all convertible personnel there.

Since the Legion is ranked by strength, our Sea Battle Group now has a complete advantage, it may not even be worse than the first group’s Sea Battle Group.

If managed well, we could even surpass them, and then we wouldn’t we become the Sea Battle Group’s first team?

Who would dare call us a logistics group at that point?”

Zhao Han laid out her rationale very clearly.

“But Sister Zhao Han, if we do this, will Sister Xue agree?

And how about our logistics responsibilities?”

Zi Qing expressed her primary concern.

“It’s simple; we just need to do our assigned tasks well, meaning we continue our transportation duties and our housekeeping.

We’re only reducing the investment in the Land Combat Team and diverting a large number of personnel and financial resources to the Sea Battle Group.

You two are my right-hand women, what do you think?”

“Don’t hold back; if there are any concerns, speak freely; it concerns the future of our twelfth group.

You wouldn’t want to just handle logistics forever in the development of the Star Ring, would you?

To put it bluntly, if we don’t make any changes, someday when the game progresses into the Interstellar Era, there’s a big chance we’ll just end up as a transport squadron or an interstellar mining crew.”

Zhao Han was completely serious; in fact, their group wasn’t that bad to start with.

But they had trouble recruiting top talent, and the few capable members they had were poached by other groups.

And because she was somewhat softhearted, she took in quite a few life players, which led to their current situation.

Zhao Han was always deeply unsatisfied; she had her own aspirations and dreams.

She was constantly looking for opportunities and now that one had arisen, there was no way she would let it slip away!

“I support you!”

Lin Zinuo declared, full of excitement.

“I support you too.”

Zi Qing didn’t hesitate at all.

“Okay, then the three of us sisters will work hard together!”

Zhao Han took the lead in reaching out her hand.

Zi Qing and Lin Zinuo followed suit, placing their hands on top of the others’.

Inside Star Ring, a city overrun by zombies, aimless undead roamed everywhere.

At that moment, a disguised helicopter flew into the sky, and one paratrooper after another jumped out.

As these paratroopers descended to low altitude, they all drew their silenced rifles and began firing bursts at the zombies below.

The muffled sounds of gunfire rose continuously.

Thud, thud~

One zombie after another was shot in the head.

In the blink of an eye, the entire area was cleared.

Then the paratroopers landed, quickly discarding their parachutes and moving towards an abandoned concrete skeletal building.

Leading them was a blond-haired, blue-eyed woman with an athletic build.

They gathered under the skeletal building.

At that moment, there lay on the ground a corpse that had been gnawed beyond recognition, with only bones and scraps left on the body.

The woman took out a special glass bottle from her backpack, inside which a bright red flame burned, and there was a metal ball that looked like a heart, pulsing with red liquid.

After opening the bottle, she tilted it slightly, and the spark fell directly into the corpse.

Instantly, the broken bones floated up and the spark flared vigorously.

The tattered bones visibly began to regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few seconds, York was resurrected, taking a deep breath before letting out an exasperated roar.

“I’m finally back online!”

“That’s enough.

The lesson learned this time is profound enough, don’t mess around next time,” the woman in front of him reminded coldly.

“You don’t need to educate me, I know what I’m doing!” York snorted.

“Instructor, the zombies are closing in from all sides, we should withdraw!” the elite squad member reminded respectfully.

“Hmph, a bunch of trash!

Let’s go!”

Inside the North Camp of Dawn City, Su Mo was currently in a private hangar, watching Qin Wang repair the mecha.

As Qin Wang worked on the repairs, he said somewhat awkwardly, “Don’t you have anything to do, Su Mo?

Actually, you don’t have to just watch.”

“It’s fine, you do your work,” Su Mo responded indifferently.

Qin Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead; he felt a great deal of pressure being watched by Su Mo while working.
