Chapter 76 (1/2)

Stewart seemed to be a person who could not stay idle. Seeing Fatty not saying anything, he turned over and started chatting with another commando with a voice so loud that the entire transport s.h.i.+p could hear him.

”O'Neal, what is your current ranking in Fire of War [1]?”

The moment Fatty heard the three words ”Fire of War”, he immediately understood that this bunch of people surely spent most of their time mixing around in the virtual battle web, so he perked his ears up and was ready to hear what O'Neal had to say.

O'Neal said, ”Don't mention it. Those who are ranked after 10,000 and before 100,000 have a standard that is considered as average. The majority of those in our battalion is ranked at about 80,000 and right now, I'm the highest amongst them at around 15,000!”

Stewart laughed in jest: ”This father is stronger than you. I'm reaching 12,000 soon!” Seeing O'Neal's expression turning ugly, Stewart consoled him hypocritically, ”It's not that bad since there's already more than 100 million people partic.i.p.ating in the game internationally. For you to rank at about 10,000 proves clearly that our Fierce Tiger's techniques are quite good.”

First Lieutenant Company Commander O'Neal did not seem like he really respected this monster-like Battalion Commander as he snorted disdainfully, ”What good is that? There are still so many experts who have yet to come, and there's not a single one from Leray with a ranking in the top 1,000! It's such a pity that SM01314 has disappeared after a single fight; otherwise, I estimate this chap would most likely be ranked in the top 1,000.”

Fatty fell in a daze as he thought, ”Why did he mention me? Have I battled against this chap?”

The moment SM01314 was mentioned, the entire transport s.h.i.+p immediately exploded as the commands began to discuss in high spirits, with some scolding and the others praising. Those who were scolding him used words that were truly sharp and unkind, causing the entire body of Fatty to tremble; those who were praising him, however, were truly pa.s.sionate as those words came like a tide, causing Fatty to feel his brows and eyes curving in happiness.

Stewart, who had most likely suffered before SM01314, voiced out indignantly, ”That brat isn't human. d.a.m.n, last time when this father fought with him, he had used an engineered bomb to blast apart part of a mountain, causing the debris to fall down and burying this father alive! Up to this point is still fine, but after entering the international web, that chap has, at the very least, s.n.a.t.c.hed 12 of my parts. F*** this! Even after investigating for such a long time, I've yet to discover who he is. When I get my hands on him… Heh heh…”

Feeling alarmed as he watched the figure of this monster, Tian Xing Jian turned that fleshy face of his around. Indeed, enemies always appear on a narrow road.

Under the protection of the fighter aircraft, the transport s.h.i.+p continued flying towards its destination. The current cabin was so bustling and noisy that it felt like a market. Tian Xing Jian looked at these boastful Fierce Tiger Commandos, and for a moment, he wondered how these people, who had yet to go on the battlefield, would have such high enthusiasm as if they were merely sight-seeing; he had never seen them being nervous at all. This was their first time entering the battlefield, and yet, they were so bullish. Indeed, the Fierce Tiger Commandos lived up to their reputation.

After an hour or so, the transport s.h.i.+p's system broadcast emitted the voice from the captain of the s.h.i.+p—the transport s.h.i.+p will be entering the region of their destination 20 minutes later, and 30 minutes later, they will be dropping from the air, so everyone, please make your last preparation.

The cabin turned quiet within moments. Seeing the chaps, who had apathetic expressions, going to the toilet one after another or just sitting there feeling at ease, Fatty chuckled in his heart, 'This father still thinks that all your mental states are made of iron while your bladders are made of alloy. So, it turns out that all of you were actually just acting like heroes.'
