Start inheriting a mercenary group

However, they are well aware that this road will not be smooth sailing. The threat of rival mercenary groups is always there, and they may resort to more radical means to seize this ancient weapon.

It was just dawn and the base of the Immortal Armed Mercenaries was already bustling with activity.

Lu Ting stood on the training ground, his neat military uniform making him look particularly energetic. His sharp eyes swept over every mercenary, as if he wanted to take in their status.

The morning sun shone on his face, highlighting his determined expression.

He knew very well that as an elite mercenary group, only by constantly honing their skills through rigorous training could they remain invincible on the battlefield.

"Everyone!" Lu Ting shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the empty training ground. "Starting today, we will conduct a month-long intensive training. The goal is to improve your tactical level and teamwork ability. Especially for the new members, I want to make sure you can quickly integrate into this team."

Upon hearing this, the mercenaries straightened their backs and showed serious expressions on their faces. They knew that Lu Ting was not a person who liked to joke, and every word he said was full of weight.

"Everyone, today's training begins with basic tactics."

Lu Ting announced loudly, his voice revealing determination and majesty, "We will conduct shooting, covert action and blasting training. I hope you can go all out and show your strength."

Upon hearing this, the mercenaries straightened their backs and showed serious expressions on their faces. They knew that Lu Ting was not a person who liked to joke, and every word he said was full of weight.

Lu Ting personally supervised the training process and commented and guided the mercenaries' performance.

He walked to the shooting range and watched Soap and Yuri practicing shooting.

Soap is a big guy with amazing strength, but he is always a little impatient when shooting; while Yuri is a small guy, agile and smart, and he can always find the feeling quickly when shooting.

"Soap, your shooting posture is wrong. You need to adjust your breathing and rhythm." Lu Ting walked to Soap and demonstrated the correct shooting posture himself. "Remember, shooting depends not only on strength, but also on skills and mentality."

Soap nodded and humbly accepted Lu Ting's guidance. He adjusted his posture and breathing and pulled the trigger again. This time, his shooting performance improved significantly.

Yuri was proudly showing off his shooting skills, and almost every shot he made hit the bull's eye, which impressed the other mercenaries.

Lu Ting also spoke highly of Yuri's performance: "Yuri, your shooting skills are excellent, but you should also be careful not to be complacent."

The next step was covert action and blasting training. Lu Ting led the mercenaries through a simulated battlefield, teaching them how to use terrain and bunkers for concealment, and how to quickly and accurately install and detonate explosives.

He particularly stressed the importance of teamwork: "Remember, covert operations and demolition are not a one-man show, but require close cooperation among team members."

Under Lu Ting's guidance, the mercenaries gradually mastered the essentials of covert operations and blasting.

They practiced in groups, cooperated with each other well, and successfully completed the training task.

In order to improve the combat capability of the Immortal Armed Mercenary Corps, Lu Ting decided to arrange a mock battle.

He knew very well that only by training in an environment close to actual combat could the mercenaries better cope with future challenges.

His sharp eyes swept over every mercenary present, and his voice was firm and majestic: "Today, we will have a mock battle. I hope you can go all out and show your strength."

Upon hearing this, the mercenaries straightened their backs and showed serious expressions on their faces. They knew that simulated battles were different from normal training and required more teamwork and personal courage.

Lu Ting carefully designed the battlefield environment and arranged obstacles and bunkers to simulate real battlefield conditions.

He explained the mission objectives in detail: "Your mission is to occupy the enemy's position and seize important military supplies. Remember, this is not a one-man battle, but the glory of the team."

With Lu Ting's order, the simulated battle officially began. The mercenaries quickly divided into two teams, led by Mao Zao and Yuri respectively. With weapons in hand, they swiftly shuttled through the battlefield, looking for traces of the enemy.

Soap rushed to the front with his strong physique and extraordinary courage.

He held an assault rifle and moved forward while shooting. Yuri was more agile and clever. He used the terrain and cover to hide and gave the enemy a fatal blow from time to time.

The battlefield was filled with smoke and gunfire. The mercenaries sometimes charged into battle and sometimes lurked and sniped. They cooperated with each other tacitly and jointly dealt with the enemy's attack.

However, the simulated battle was not smooth sailing. During the offensive, Soap's team encountered stubborn resistance from the enemy.

They were suppressed by the dense firepower and couldn't raise their heads. At this time, Yuri's team launched a surprise attack from the flank, successfully distracting the enemy.

Soap took the opportunity to lead the team in a charge and finally broke through the enemy's defense line.

In the process of seizing military supplies, the two teams of mercenaries once again demonstrated their teamwork ability.

They have clear division of labor, some are responsible for cover, and some are responsible for carrying supplies.

Lu Ting stood at the edge of the battlefield, observing the performance of each mercenary with a keen eye. For him, this simulated battle was not only a tactical training, but also a test for the new members Soap and Yuri.

"Soap, watch your left side!" Lu Ting suddenly shouted loudly, and his voice echoed in the empty battlefield.

Soap shuddered and quickly rolled to the left, while the rifle in his hand spewed out flames. A simulated enemy soldier fell down, and Soap patted the dust off his body, raised his thumb in the direction of Lu Ting, and showed a smug smile.

Yuri, who was not far away, seemed more calm. He used the terrain to cover himself and approached the enemy's position step by step. His movements were light and agile, like a cheetah running through the jungle.

"Yuri, how's the situation over there?" Lu Ting asked over the radio.

"All is well, Commander," Yuri whispered back, "I have discovered the enemy's weakness and am ready to attack."

Lu Ting nodded, satisfied with Yuri's performance. He turned to look at the other mercenaries, only to see that they were also fighting hard on their respective battlefields, engaging in fierce battles with the simulated enemy soldiers.

On the battlefield, the sounds of explosions, gunfire and shouts intertwined to form a passionate battle symphony.

The mercenaries sometimes charged and sometimes crawled forward. Their movements were quick and coordinated, showing the superb tactical level of the Immortal Armed Mercenaries. As young members, Soap and Yuri performed well in this simulated battle. They not only quickly adapted to the battlefield environment, but also worked closely with their teammates to complete the mission objectives together.

With everyone's joint efforts, they successfully transported the supplies back to their positions.

Soap's bravery and Yuri's wit won the recognition and appreciation of his teammates.

"Good job, Soap! That shot of yours was really beautiful!" Captain Qian patted Soap's shoulder and said admiringly.

"Yuri too, his stealth and assault are simply impeccable," Nikolai added.

Listening to the praise from their teammates, Soap and Yuri smiled at each other. They knew that the victory of this simulated battle was inseparable from everyone's efforts and teamwork.

The smoke of the simulated battle gradually dissipated, leaving behind a mess on the battlefield.

The members of the Immortal Armed Mercenary Corps withdrew from their respective combat positions and gathered around Commander Lu Ting.

Their faces were filled with the joy of victory, but more importantly, they were filled with a kind of perseverance that came from tempering experiences.

Lu Ting stood in the center of the battlefield, his eyes sweeping over every mercenary with a sharp gaze. His eyes revealed satisfaction and appreciation, but also a hint of severity.

He knew that although he had won the mock battle, there was still a lot of room for improvement.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Lu Ting said loudly, his voice echoing across the empty battlefield. "Today's simulation was very successful. You all showed outstanding strength and teamwork. However, we cannot become complacent and must always remain vigilant and enterprising."

The mercenaries nodded in agreement. They knew that Lu Ting's words were for their own good. In this industry full of dangers and challenges, only by constantly honing oneself can one survive.

Lu Ting turned his attention to Soap and Yuri. They performed particularly well in the simulated battle. Not only did they quickly adapt to the battlefield environment, they also worked closely with their teammates to successfully complete the mission objectives.

"Soap, Yuri, come here, both of you." Lu Ting waved his hand, motioning them to come forward.

Soap and Yuri smiled at each other and walked in front of Lu Ting. Their faces were filled with confidence and expectation, waiting for the commander's comments.

"You performed very well in the simulated battle." Lu Ting said in a serious tone.

“You have demonstrated calmness, courage, and wit, which are all essential qualities for an excellent mercenary. I am very happy to see that you can quickly integrate into the team and work closely with your teammates.”

Listening to Lu Ting's comments, Songao and Yuri smiled proudly. They knew that their performance was recognized by the commander, which was a great honor.

"But you shouldn't become complacent because of this." Lu Ting changed the subject and continued, "In this industry, there is no eternal winner. Only by staying vigilant and enterprising can you continuously improve your strength."

Soap and Yuri put away their smiles and nodded seriously. They knew that Lu Ting's words were meant to help them grow and improve.

"By the way, Soap." Lu Ting suddenly teased, "Your look today is very unique. Did you dress up specially to celebrate your victory?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Soap and saw that his hair was disheveled and his face was covered in dirt and dust. He did look a little disheveled.

It turned out that in the simulated battle, in order to avoid the enemy's attack, Soap had to roll into a mud pit.

Soap scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "Commander, please stop making fun of me. I am just trying to complete the mission better."

Everyone burst into laughter, and the tense atmosphere on the battlefield was relieved. Lu Ting also smiled, knowing that timely teasing and humor can enhance team cohesion.

The battlefield of the simulated war was filled with smoke and flames. The members of the Immortal Armed Mercenary Group showed their strength and teamwork ability in the flames of war.

In addition to the outstanding performances of Soap and Yuri, the other mercenaries also had their own strengths. They supported each other on the battlefield and completed the mission together.

"Curly, your sniping skills are getting better and better!" Captain Qian exclaimed. In the simulated battle just now, Curly relied on his precise sniping skills to successfully kill several simulated enemy soldiers, making great contributions to the team's victory.

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment." Curly smiled modestly and touched his curly hair, "It's because of everyone's good cooperation that I can show my strength."

Not far away, Nikolai and Sandman were checking the explosive devices. In the simulated battle, they were responsible for destroying the enemy's defense facilities and creating favorable conditions for the team's attack.

The tacit cooperation and superb skills of the two made Lu Ting nod in praise.

"Phantom, Frost, Meng Kara, you three female soldiers are not bad!" Soap came over and patted them on the shoulders, "On the battlefield, you are not inferior to the male soldiers at all."

Ghost, Frost and Mengkala smiled at each other. They showed excellent concealed action and quick reaction ability in the simulated battle.

Whether they are infiltrating enemy positions or performing rescue missions, they are able to quickly adapt to the environment and work closely with their teammates.

"Xiao Qiang, your assault ability is really admirable." Yuri looked at Xiao Qiang holding a rifle and charging into battle, and couldn't help but sighed, "With you leading the way, we feel much more at ease."

Xiao Qiang chuckled and waved the rifle in his hand: "This is my responsibility, to pave a way forward for the team."

"Okay, let's get back to the topic." Lu Ting restrained his smile and continued, "Although today's simulation battle is over, our training is not over yet. Next, we will provide personalized training and guidance for each person based on their performance in the battle. I hope everyone can continue to work hard and constantly improve their strength."

Upon hearing this, the mercenaries were eager to get started. They knew that the upcoming training would be even more difficult and rigorous.

Lu Ting stood aside and watched the performance of the mercenaries. A satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He knew that although these mercenaries had their own characteristics, they were able to support each other and complete the task together. This was exactly the team spirit and collaboration he expected.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Lu Ting said loudly, "Today's mock battle was very successful. You all showed outstanding strength and teamwork. I am proud of you!"

The mercenaries gathered around, their faces filled with smiles of victory. (End of this chapter)
