God of Pets

Chapter 118 If You Were You
"Wouldn't it be better to just live peacefully and join the regular army after the second awakening? Why do so many things?" Bu Changning muttered softly.

"Shut up and stop talking nonsense." Shi Zhimen heard Bu Changning's muttering, glared at him fiercely and cursed him twice.

"That's how it is. If he wants to mess around, let him do it. Why should he mess with us? We don't want to risk our lives to gild others." Bu Changning said with a pout.

"Those who don't want to join me in team building can go back. I never like to force others to do things they don't like. You can leave at any time." Chen Guan in front stopped and said to everyone.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.

Bu Changning's face looked unhappy. He gritted his teeth and wanted to say something, but Shi Zhimen slapped him on the head and he almost stumbled and fell off the horse.

"What nonsense are you talking about? He's our captain. You should obey his orders." Shi Zhimen gave Bu Changning a way out. He then rode up to Chen Guan and said with a smile, "Captain Chen, don't argue with him. A soldier's duty is to obey orders. He will do whatever you say. He has no right to speak."

"We are not real soldiers yet, so there is no need to worry about so many things. Those who are willing to follow me can go together, and those who don't want to follow me, Chen will not force you. Those who want to leave can turn around and go back to do what they want. I promise that I will never cause trouble for you. But I have to say this in advance. This time you are leaving the team and cannot share the joys and sorrows with your brothers, so you should not take the reward for completing the mission. Just distribute it to your brothers consciously, and then each of you can have fun on your own." Chen Guan said lightly.

"Okay, if you have the ability to complete the mission, then you have the ability. I won't take any mission reward from you. I will be transferred tomorrow. Captain Chen, if you have the ability, you can play. I won't play anymore, okay." Bu Changning turned his horse and left, no longer showing mercy to Chen Guan.

Bu Changning had the temper and confidence, but the others did not have such confidence and did not dare to leave with him.

Seeing that things had gotten to this point, Shi Zhimen had no choice but to step out to smooth things over: "Captain Chen, don't bother with that brat. He's notoriously bad-tempered and has offended many people. He wasn't on our team before, and was transferred here because he offended someone."

"He chose his own path, which isn't a bad thing. Everyone needs to be responsible for themselves. As long as he doesn't regret it, that's fine." Chen Guan's eyes swept over everyone's faces. "Anyone else wants to leave? If you want to, leave now. Once you enter the secret realm, you're not allowed to leave. Leaving then will be considered cowardice and will be treated as a deserter."

"Since no one objects, it means that you agree with what I said, so let's continue going." Seeing that no one spoke, Chen Guan asked Shi Zhimen to lead the team to continue to the blessed land of Beimang Mountain.

These team members were unwilling in their hearts, but they did not dare to offend Chen Guan. They just hoped that after Chen Guan saw the power of the Huangquan Yinbing Legion, he would change his mind and withdraw as soon as possible.

Some people even sneered in their hearts, waiting to see Chen Guan make a fool of himself.

The more decisive he is now, the more embarrassed he will be when he retreats later.

Even Shi Zhimen felt that this young master was a little too out of touch with worldly affairs. He didn't know how powerful the Yellow Springs Yin Soldiers were. It would be easy for the ten of them to get into trouble if they encountered hundreds of Yellow Springs Yin Soldiers. How could they possibly complete the mission?

"When he sees the Yellow Springs Yinbing Legion, I will give him a way out and he should be able to retreat." Shi Zhimen thought to himself.

A group of people were teleported into the blessed land of Beimang Mountain, and then headed towards a military base in Nanshan. There was an area of ​​Yellow Springs Yin Soldiers there that they were responsible for clearing out.

Half of the Beimang Mountain blessed land is steep mountainous area, and the other half is a relatively flat area. The Yellow Springs Yin soldiers usually wander out from the mountainous area, and they can never be killed or destroyed.

Military bases built on flat areas are often harassed by the Yellow Springs' ghost soldiers. Although they pose no threat, they can damage some buildings and facilities, so they need to be cleaned up regularly.

When they arrived at the place, Shi Zhimen volunteered to investigate the situation.

With Chen Guan's permission, Shi Zhimen rode away, but soon returned, panting, and reported, "Captain, there are at least a thousand Yellow Springs ghost soldiers ahead. It's difficult for us to defeat them with our current strength. Why don't we retreat first and make plans later?"

"Let's go and take a look first." Chen Guan ignored him and urged his horse forward.

Shi Zhimen had no choice but to let all the team members follow, and then he led the way in front. He stopped on a slope and stopped Chen Guan and the team members behind him: "Captain, look."

Chen Guan looked down the slope and saw many ghost soldiers wandering around like lonely ghosts, but they were all wearing armor and carrying weapons. Some of them even had ghost horses as mounts, which were far from comparable to ordinary lonely ghosts.

There was a huge mass of gray below, and there were indeed quite a lot of them. Shi Zhimen said there were over a thousand, and that was not an exaggeration. It must be more than that.

Seeing this situation, all the team members felt a little weak and wanted to retreat quickly. If they were surrounded by the Yellow Springs Yin Army, it would be difficult to break out.

"Captain, let's retreat?" Shi Zhimen advised again.

"Deputy Captain, you grew up in the pet arena, right?" Chen Guan looked at the Yellow Springs Yinbing Army below, did not mention the retreat, and suddenly talked about Shi Zhimen's childhood.

"That's right." Shi Zhimen didn't know why Chen Guan suddenly brought this up.

"I've been learning riding from you for a day. In my opinion, when it comes to riding skills, no one in the reserve team can match you. With the talent you showed when teaching me and your understanding of cavalry tactics, I'm afraid no one can match you, let alone in the reserve team, even in the regular army." Chen Guan secretly activated the cheerleader's soul talent.

"Captain Chen, you are too..." Shi Zhimen looked strange and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Chen Guan.

"With your riding skills and talent, you should have a place in the reserve team. But because of your background, you can't even become a captain. Don't you think this is sad?" Chen Guan looked at him and said.

Shi Zhimen was stunned for a moment, then said expressionlessly, "I'm already very satisfied to be your deputy captain."

"No, you're not satisfied, and you don't need to be. You shouldn't hide your talent. You should fully display your brilliance and talent, letting everyone see your excellence, instead of cowering and pretending to be a coward like you are now." Chen Guan's gaze was as sharp as a knife, staring directly into Shi Zhimen's eyes, and he spoke forcefully, "Do you know? A peacock spreads its feathers to attract the affection of a female peacock; a male lion defeats enemies with his majestic physique to gain the respect of a lionesses; a phoenix's cry in the sky attracts a phoenix to its tree and its companionship."

Chen Guan turned his gaze towards the Yellow Spring Ghost below and said word by word, "Only powerful strength can prove one's worth. Being a coward won't do."

After saying this, Chen Guan drew his spear and spurred his horse, charging directly towards the Yellow Springs Ghost Army down the slope, shouting as he charged, "If you were the real you, the ten of us would be able to conquer the world and be invincible."
