I started with Emperor Armor and conquered Infinity.

Chapter 157 Departure

"Captain Zhou, why is this operation in such a hurry?"

In the team, a young member was panting heavily, his face full of exhaustion.

"We've been marching at breakneck speed all this time. Even though our team is the elite among the newcomers, with everyone reaching the level of a formal reincarnator, the intensity is still taking a toll on our bodies."

This team from the Linhai City Military Region is outstanding among the new recruits, possessing considerable strength and deserving the title of an elite squad.

Each member is a formal reincarnator, possessing strength around the high level of Qi Refining.

This level of skill is definitely no match for Lin Yao, but among the newcomers, it is top-tier.

In previous missions, other reincarnator teams suffered significant losses, some even devastating, but this team emerged unscathed.

The fact that everyone has survived to this day and reaped considerable benefits demonstrates their remarkable teamwork and capabilities.

But even with their strength, the rapid pace of Zhou Zhuoran's journey was taking a toll on their physical condition and internal energy.

It's not that the burst speed can't keep up, but rather that in situations requiring sustained high-speed movement, physical strength simply cannot support it.

Even if they grit their teeth and keep up, it's questionable how much fighting strength they still have if they actually achieve their goal under these circumstances; they might just be sending themselves to their deaths.

"I don't know the specifics very well. My orders were to rush to the battlefield not far from the desolate city at top speed."

Zhou Zhuoran was only a Foundation Establishment Realm expert, and even a Golden Core Realm expert like Chen Shu had to be cautious and behave himself during this period.

He naturally couldn't do anything too outrageous to avoid drawing too much attention, and he dared not question the orders from above.

Therefore, under such circumstances, they knew very little about intelligence from all sides, and only knew that they had to lead their troops to the battlefield as quickly as possible.

After saying those words, his worries grew even stronger.

As a seasoned veteran, I sensed something was amiss about the seemingly relaxed yet tense atmosphere in the camp, and I had a feeling that something big was about to happen.

Perhaps we'll have to fight tooth and nail to survive.

Lin Yao, on the other hand, did not follow Su Wan and the others, but instead mingled into this unremarkable group, making it easier to slack off and make a quick buck.

Because he had been studying formations for a while, his popularity had decreased considerably, and he was no longer very noticeable in the team.

With Lin Yao's strength, he naturally heard the discussion of the people in front of him. His gaze occasionally drifted to Zhou Zhuoran in front of him, and thoughts flashed through his mind.

"My Uncle Lu's subordinates' operations in the Dragon Abyss Dynasty are ultimately limited by their own strength; they are still a bit weaker than those with Golden Core Realm experts."

This group of people, besides Lin Yao who knew the general situation and had the ability to deal with it, were willing to come and obtain what they needed.

Most of the others were just there to make up the numbers.

To put it bluntly, it's about using these mediocre Qi Refining Realm cultivators as bait; they'd be winning by fighting the enemy one-on-one.

However, let alone Su Wan, who had seen life and death many times in this war, even Yun Tong, who was more gentle at heart, had no objection other than feeling a little reluctant.

As the future sect leader of Yaoyue Sect, this identity does not mean that she has no feelings for the Longyuan Dynasty.

Of course, those reincarnators who have concealed their identities through the power of the reincarnation space and have the identities of locals also have the same feelings towards them.

However, speed is of the essence in war, and if we dawdle any longer and miss the most crucial opportunity, the losses will be even greater.

In a war between two countries, the issue of trade-offs must be taken into account.

Although Yun Tong was still somewhat uneasy, she quickly made her choice.

"As long as one's own strength has not yet reached the point where one can change the world, following universal rules is the best course of action."

This is Yun Tong's inner conviction.

Now, Zhou Zhuoran and his group are not only being used like cattle by the Longyuan Dynasty, but they are also likely to be betrayed by their own people due to information asymmetry.

As for what benefits the higher-ups in Linhai City or the military region above had gained, Lin Yao was not very clear and had no intention of investigating.

It can only be said that the same applies to the cycle of reincarnation.

As the distance increased, all sorts of people with ulterior motives or those involved in factional struggles emerged, making the situation even more brutal than it had been in the Blue Star Federation.

During this march, Lin Yao remained hidden within the ranks, maintaining an inconspicuous mid-level strength while secretly making plans.

And so, this team drew ever closer to the grand stage where various forces vied for supremacy...
