If I made you a special forces soldier, would you become a terrestrial god?

Zhenguo Pass, the highest command tower of the Kunlun Brigade.

Standing before the enormous floor-to-ceiling window, Su Chen stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the steel city below that had fully awakened.

For more than a month after the exercise ended, the entire base was operating at high speed.

The group of top talents brought back by Miao Zhiyuan and Du Feifei are all in place.

Led by Academician Chen Jing, the research department is working day and night, relying on the "Tianji" supercomputing system, to conduct research and development and simulation of various cutting-edge technologies.

The newly established information warfare command center has initially acquired the capability to monitor and penetrate global networks.

Meanwhile, Du Feifei's medical department underwent a complete transformation. Su Chen directly used his authority to secretly purchase a batch of the world's most advanced medical equipment from the United States. Combined with the cutting-edge medical theories and elixirs he provided, it had become the most advanced life science research center in China, and even the world.

The framework of Kunlun has been completely built.

Now, all that's left is to fill it with the finest flesh and blood.

"brigadier."

Miao Zhiyuan pushed open the door and entered, his face showing barely concealed excitement. He handed a thick electronic file to Su Chen.

"The first phase of selection across the seven military regions has concluded. The list of the seven thousand individuals who passed the assessment and qualified for the second phase is here."

Su Chen took the tablet and lightly swiped his finger across the screen.

Familiar yet passionate names came into his view.

Southeast Military Region (1000 personnel)

He Zhijun, Fan Tianlei, Lei Zhan, Yan Wang, Old Fox, Harley, Han Guang, Cai Xiaochun, Qiang Xiaowei, Shi Dafan, Geng Jihui...

[Northern Theater Command (1000 personnel)]

Kang Lei, Gong Jian, Lao Hei, He Chenguang, Wang Yanbing, Li Erniu...

Gao Cheng, Shi Jin, Wu Liuyi, Xu Sanduo, Cheng Cai...

【…】

Long Xiaoyun, Leng Feng, Shi Sanba, Yu Fei...

Yuan Lang, Railway, Qi Huan...

Lei Keming...

Sure enough, not one was missing.

In their respective worlds, these individuals were destined to be protagonists, blessed with good fortune. In this unprecedented selection process, they all stood out by virtue of their extraordinary strength and will.

A satisfied smile curved the corners of Su Chen's lips.

He knew that his plan had succeeded in its first step.

By bringing all these chosen ones together under the banner of Kunlun, the energy they can unleash in the future will increase exponentially!

He Chenguang may just be a top-notch sniper.

But He Chenguang, who has been tempered in Kunlun and mastered the mental locking technique of "Little Li Flying Dagger", will be an unparalleled killing god capable of taking the head of a general amidst a vast army!

Xu Sanduo may simply be a "king of soldiers" with an amazing willpower.

But Xu Sanduo, who has cultivated the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill" and the "Golden Bell Cover," possessing immense strength and an indestructible body, will be the most indestructible mobile fortress on the battlefield!

When these guys, blessed with "protagonist aura," all become superhumans and form an army...

The thought of that scene alone is enough to keep any nation's supreme leader awake at night.

"Well done." Su Chen handed the tablet back to Lao Miao and gave a brief comment.

Upon hearing this, Miao Zhiyuan straightened his back even more.

For him, receiving a "not bad" from the brigade commander was more honorable than any medal.

"Brigade Commander, shouldn't we start preparing for the second phase of selection?" Miao Zhiyuan asked. "These seven thousand men are the apple of the army's eye. The regimental and divisional commanders of each unit are watching them like they're their own children, afraid that we'll ruin them."

"Did you practice too much and mess it up?" Su Chen laughed, a laugh that held a deeper meaning. "This is nothing."

He turned around, looked at Miao Zhiyuan, and gave the order.

"Pass on my order to summon the four battalion commanders and all department heads to a meeting at the brigade headquarters in half an hour. Prepare to launch the second phase of the selection process."

"yes!"

Half an hour later, in the conference room of Kunlun Brigade.

When Su Chen announced the second phase selection plan, codenamed "The Hunting Game," which he had personally drafted,

The entire conference room fell into a deathly silence.

Gao Dazhuang, Lei Kaihua, and the others couldn't help but gasp as they looked at the brutally cruel rules in the plan.

Seven thousand people were airdropped onto a deserted island isolated from the world.

There were no supplies, and no rules.

The only task is to survive.

It lasts for fifteen days.

There are also more than a hundred "hunters" on the island.

The hunters' mission is to use every means possible to "hunt" these seven thousand "prey".

Ultimately, only those who survive to the end and rank in the top four thousand will be eligible to advance to the next round.

"Brigade...Brigade Commander..." Lei Kaihua swallowed hard. This usually fearless guy felt a chill run down his spine. "Isn't this...isn't this a bit too ruthless? What's the difference between this and raising a Gu poison?"

"War is a thousand times more cruel than this." Su Chen's tone was icy cold, devoid of any warmth. "The soldiers of Kunlun cannot have the blood of their own people on their hands, but they must have the courage and ability to face any cruel environment."

"But who will be the 'hunter'?" Liang Sanxi raised a crucial question. "If our four combat battalions were to participate, these seven thousand men wouldn't last a day, let alone fifteen. This isn't a selection process; it's a one-sided massacre."

Su Chen smiled.

That's exactly what he was waiting for.

His gaze slowly swept over everyone present, finally settling on the figure in the corner who had been sitting upright the entire time, his eyes filled with tension and anticipation.

He is Chen Guotao, the company commander of the garrison company.

Su Chen's voice rang out clearly in the quiet conference room.

"The four major combat battalions will not participate in this hunter competition."

"The garrison company, the face of our Kunlun Brigade, will take on this role!"

boom!

These words were like a bombshell, exploding in the hearts of all the officers of the garrison company, including Chen Guotao, Zheng Sanpao, and Zhuang Yan!

Let them... become hunters?

To hunt down those seven thousand elite soldiers, the best of the best, chosen from among the million-strong army?!

How...how is this possible?!

Although they had undergone Su Chen's initial enhancement, they had only cultivated the most basic internal energy cultivation methods. Their strength was simply not on the same level as the "gods" of the four major combat camps.

How could they, with just over a hundred soldiers, fight against seven thousand of the army's top special forces and elite soldiers?

This is tantamount to sending a flock of sheep to hunt a pack of hungry wolves!

"Brigade Commander, this..." Chen Guotao suddenly stood up, his face filled with shock and unease. "Our garrison company... I'm afraid we're not up to the task!"

Zhuang Yan, Zheng Sanpao, and the others behind him also clenched their fists, their hearts filled with resentment, yet they had no choice but to admit the truth.

However, Su Chen simply looked at them and spoke calmly.

"This is also your garrison company's graduation exam."

His voice suddenly turned stern.

"Those who successfully complete the mission in this hunting game, and whose 'casualty' rate is less than 50%, will all pass the assessment and be officially granted the Kunlun Brigade's combat rank! They will enjoy the same skills and resources as the four major combat battalions!"

"But what if you get killed by those 'newbies,' or the mission fails..."

A cold glint flashed in Su Chen's eyes.

"Then, your garrison company will forever remain just a garrison company. The core of Kunlun will forever be out of your reach."

Upon hearing this, the entire garrison company's officers held their breath.

Immediately afterwards, an unprecedented surge of ferocity and madness, driven to the brink of despair, erupted from the depths of each of their hearts!

"Mission accomplished!"

Chen Guotao's eyes instantly turned red, and he screamed out those six words at the top of his lungs!

Zhuang Yan, Zheng Sanpao, and the others behind him also stood up in unison, their roars like thunder!

"Mission accomplished!"

They knew this was the only chance the brigade commander was giving them!

An opportunity that could truly transform them from "mortals" into "gods"!

Alternatively, stepping over the corpses of those seven thousand elite soldiers, he could rise from the ashes and ascend to godhood!

Either be nailed to the gates of Kunlun forever, gazing up at the altar!

There is no third way!

Looking at the group of tigers whose fighting spirit had been completely ignited, Su Chen's face showed a satisfied smile.

He knew that a good show was about to begin.
