Chapter 1212 Part of the Danger
To Zhang Beixing's surprise, as soon as he opened his mouth, a teammate immediately backed out: "This mission is too difficult. Let alone capturing a beast alive, even capturing a dead beast is not an easy task."
One of them spoke up, and another teammate chimed in, "That's right, this is obviously an impossible mission. The captain just wants us to go and die."
"Why don't we just quit and run away? The captain still can't do anything to us." Another teammate, who also didn't want to continue the operation, came up with this idea.
"No." When Zhang Beixing heard these words, he felt a little angry, but he couldn't blame his teammates too much for the time being. After all, even Zhang Beixing himself knew that this was indeed a very difficult task.
But now he's in a difficult situation. Based on his reputation alone, Zhang Beixing wouldn't choose to abandon this mission. Moreover, if he suddenly gives up halfway, it will ultimately affect his future life.
"Putting aside the fact that this mission is extremely dangerous, even if we run away, although the captain may not be able to find us for a while, the organization can send people to search for us and bring us back one by one. We'll be in deep trouble then."
"So we really have no other choice now but to complete this mission perfectly, go back and report back, and then leave this terrible guard team completely."
After Zhang Beixing finished his long speech, the others immediately abandoned their idea of deserting and began to ask him, "Do you have any good ideas now?"
Hearing this, Zhang Beixing knew that he would have to come up with a solution himself. After a moment's thought, he offered his idea: "We can use a sleeping potion to knock it out first, that would make things much easier."
“Let’s find some herbs that can induce hallucinations in the beasts first,” Zhang Beixing said, randomly picking someone. “You can come with me. We’ll get them ready quickly. I just saw a large patch of them not far away.”
So, after hearing Zhang Beixing's words, the teammate felt embarrassed to refuse and immediately agreed: "Okay, let's go together."
It didn't take Zhang Beixing long to grind the hallucinogenic herbs he had collected into powder, and then make them into a liquid medicine, which he planned to secretly put into the water when the strange beasts weren't paying attention.
"The medicine is ready now. Just put it into the water the beast will drink later, and it will immediately faint," Zhang Beixing said, shaking the bottle containing the medicine in his hand.
"However, this water source is very close to where the strange beast appears, so we must be extra careful when we move around and not let it discover us," Zhang Beixing whispered a reminder, though he had already prepared himself to take the risk.
However, to Zhang Beixing's surprise, his teammate, who had been quite depressed before his long speech, now seemed full of enthusiasm: "Why don't you let me go?"
In fact, this teammate had indeed thought about running away before, but after listening to Zhang Beixing's words, he realized that running away was not a good solution. After all, you can run away but you can't hide, and you will eventually have to face everything.
So this teammate thought that he should also do his part for the team, and volunteered to help Zhang Beixing.
Seeing this, Zhang Beixing was naturally very happy, so he smoothly handed over the task to him, and did not forget to remind him: "You must be careful and don't let the beast find you."
After giving his instructions, his teammate set off. He carefully poured the potion into the water the beast was about to drink, then quietly hid to the side and observed. After a while, the beast indeed came to drink.
After a while, the beast gradually fainted.
After the beast slowly fell into a coma, Zhang Beixing and the other five worked together to capture it with a net and transport it back to the team. By then, it was already the evening of the second day.
Zhang Beixing told the others to deal with the monster first, and then they would go to the captain to report on the mission. Before they left, he specifically instructed them: "This time we'll sneak in and see what the captain is doing. Everyone, keep a low profile."
"The captain assigned us such a difficult task, but he's been slacking off by himself. I want to see what he's been doing." One of the team members was furious when he mentioned the captain.
"So let's all be careful not to alert them." So everyone started making plans to secretly see what the captain was doing.
Some people were just curious, but Zhang Beixing knew perfectly well why the captain had assigned them such a heavy task.
As expected, everything unfolded exactly as Zhang Beixing had predicted. When they pushed open the door, the captain was drinking alone inside; there was no one else in the room at that moment.
The captain seemed to have had a few rounds of drinks, and he couldn't help but spit out his pent-up feelings. He didn't see Zhang Beixing and the others, assuming no one was around, and began to ramble on.
"I assigned Zhang Beixing and his group such a difficult mission so that they would never return. By now, they've probably already been eaten by the monsters and become their meal."
Thinking of this, the captain felt even more resentful towards Zhang Beixing, and said indignantly, "Especially that Zhang Beixing, who actually saw through my thoughts at a glance. But it doesn't matter, I still dealt with him now."
Just as the captain was smugly saying these words, Zhang Beixing suddenly stood in front of him: "What are you talking about? Who's dealing with whom?"
In fact, Zhang Beixing had long anticipated the captain's intentions towards him: to put him to death or else he would not let it go. He just hadn't expected the captain to say such things so openly, and that someone would overhear them.
Zhang Beixing was naturally unwilling to accept such an insult, so he angrily rebuked the captain: "We are out there working hard and risking our lives for a mission, while you are here leisurely drinking. You think too highly of yourself."
At this point, Zhang Beixing slammed his fist on the table in anger, instantly sobering up the captain, who could only stammer as he explained his words and actions: "That's not how it is, Zhang Beixing, you've misunderstood."
"I was actually very worried about your safety, but I was drinking earlier and said some things that were a bit incoherent. I'm really sorry. I apologize to you all. As for wanting to harm you, that's absolutely not true." Seeing Zhang Beixing staring at him coldly, the captain immediately began to explain incessantly, "As your captain, I naturally hope that you all have a good future, which is why I gave you this difficult task. How could I possibly want to harm you?"
At this point, Zhang Beixing knew, of course, that the captain was just spouting lies and making excuses. So he couldn't listen anymore and interrupted him directly: "You don't need to spout any more nonsense."
"You were actually criticized by your superiors. Because you were afraid of being laid off and losing your job completely, you wanted to send a few of us to our deaths so that your position as captain would be unshakeable."
Zhang Beixing hit the nail on the head, and the captain had no chance to argue anymore. He could only stand there for a moment, then couldn't say anything.
Zhang Beixing seized the opportunity, gave the captain a lecture, and then found the other teammates to express his thoughts: "Actually, I wanted to leave from the beginning."
"Now I'll be completely honest with everyone. I originally planned to leave immediately after completing this mission." Zhang Beixing had no other choice but to tell everyone the truth.
“It’s not just because of the captain’s matter. I’m thinking that even though I’m leaving, the friendship between us will still remain.” Zhang Beixing’s tone suddenly became emotional as he said this.
"However, I won't stop you from having your own ideas. I know that some of you still don't want to leave, so I won't force you to do these things. It's just that everyone has their own choice."
At this point, Zhang Beixing immediately revealed his plan: "So if anyone wants to leave, they can come with me to headquarters, and we'll send the alien beasts there."
“Then we can form our own guard team, no longer subject to the jurisdiction of others. We can set our own rules, and naturally we won’t be bound by those restrictions.” Zhang Beixing looked up at everyone and bowed deeply.
Zhang Beixing led the others who wanted to leave to the headquarters, pondering the matter of forming his own team later.
For a moment, Zhang Beixing hesitated. After all, when he first joined this guard team, he simply wanted to find a job and do it properly. But what he hadn't expected was that the captain wanted to harm him and his teammates.
Therefore, Zhang Beixing was naturally unwilling to do those things. So he planned to build his own team and create something great together with his former teammates.
Thinking of this, Zhang Beixing suddenly felt motivated again, determined to work hard, build his own team, and lead his teammates to achieve great things.
"We have successfully brought the alien beasts here," Zhang Beixing said, emphasizing each word, his tone tinged with pride. Looking at the people in headquarters, he didn't feel he was much inferior to them.
"We didn't expect you guys to be so amazing." The people at headquarters were quite proud when they saw that Zhang Beixing and his group had actually brought the alien beast. However, they were right to be proud. "You've really impressed us."
When headquarters learned that the original captain had assigned Zhang Beixing and his group this task, they thought it was almost impossible to complete. They initially wanted to refuse, but seeing that no one else was willing to do it, they proceeded with the assignment.
Seeing Zhang Beixing and his group complete the mission so well, he was naturally pleased and immediately praised them without hesitation: "You guys are really amazing. I never expected you could complete this mission."
Hearing such words once or twice would naturally please Zhang Beixing. But now, after hearing them so often, he's gotten used to them and even finds them somewhat hypocritical.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Beixing revealed his true thoughts: "Actually, the reason I brought these people here this time is not just to report that the mission has been completed, but also to create my own guard team."
Upon meeting the people from headquarters, who didn't seem so stern, Zhang Beixing's initial nervousness vanished instantly: "So I also hope that headquarters can agree to my request."
Zhang Beixing spoke with neither servility nor arrogance, appearing very serious. After assessing Zhang Beixing's capabilities, headquarters quickly agreed: "Please fill out the form and register first."
And so, Zhang Beixing took the form handed to him by the headquarters staff, read it carefully, and signed his name and basic information. In that instant, it felt as if his own team had been successfully established.
"After you fill out the form, a professional will give you a team badge and allocate the corresponding supplies." The people at headquarters explained everything to Zhang Beixing, ensuring that he could better adapt to and lead his new team.
Then Zhang Beixing led the group back to their lodgings to discuss other matters. Zhang Beixing was clearly dissatisfied with the dormitory; after all, they needed a more spacious place for training.
Because no matter what, they were now a team. With that in mind, Zhang Beixing asked for the others' opinions: "Now that we've formed a team, we can't keep living in the dorms. We need to find a new place."
As soon as Zhang Beixing made his suggestion, it was immediately met with enthusiastic agreement from his teammates. They offered their own ideas all at once, but Zhang Beixing rejected them one by one, regardless of whether the location was too far away or inconvenient to move around in.
Finally, Zhang Beixing had a flash of inspiration and remembered a very suitable place he had seen before, so he shared it with everyone for reference: "I saw a place before, a manor."
"The manor is not in a remote location and has a large area, providing us with ample space to practice. Now that we have formed a new team, we naturally cannot afford to be inferior to other teams in terms of strength, so we still need to practice."
"As for the rooms, there's no need to worry. The manor is quite large, and there are plenty of empty rooms. Overall, I think choosing that place as our new location is the best possible option."
As soon as Zhang Beixing spoke, his teammates agreed. But suddenly someone asked, "Wouldn't buying an entire estate be too expensive? I'm afraid even if we pooled all our money together, it wouldn't be enough."
At this point, Zhang Beixing naturally had his own solution, so he calmly said, "Of course, that's not enough. Buying them all would be too expensive and uneconomical, so I only plan to rent them." (End of Chapter)
