Despite being a woman, Bluebird had only been enlisted for two years before being specially recruited into the Nine Nether squad, breaking the record for the Central Military Region at that time! Five years ago, the Nine Nether squad was also considered the most promising team. However, the so-called promise was not about achieving the highest scores in the competition, but about them securing a place for the first time.Their developments indeed followed that trajectory. The previous Nine Nether squad achieved the best results in history during the competition!As long as they scored in the final mixed battle of all Special Forces teams, they had a chance to catch up with the Sky Drake squad.However, the Sky Drake squad seemed to have noticed that as well. Thus, the Nine Nether squad was targeted by the Sky Drake squad. In the Special Forces competition, even a slight difference could lead to drastically different outcomes. Not to mention, there was already a significant stren
Each time Bluebird recalled her sparring matches with other Special Forces teams, it was as if she were reopening an old wound, filled with shame. She would not have spoken about it if not for the high risk she believed was associated with the Heaven's Gate medicinal bath.Listening to Bluebird's words, Liam narrowed his eyes.He had not realized that there was such a story behind Bluebird. He also did not notice how much this cold and terrifying woman had endured."So, Grandmaster Burrey, no matter the cost, as long as there is a chance of success, I will try it!"Bluebird lifted her head, a smile appearing on her fearsome face. "Grandmaster Burrey, if your medicinal bath can truly help me and allow me to make peace with my past, then after the competition, my life will be yours."There was a real chance to change everything because of Liam. How could she not seize it?As she finished speaking, Bluebird did not hesitate for a moment and began to undress in front of Liam. Her exq
However, the burst of birdsong did not awaken Bluebird. Instead, it made her faintly feel that something was about to emerge from her energy center!Chirp, chirp!As the birdsong grew louder, the abnormality in her energy center became more apparent. However, Bluebird's energy center was like a tightly shut door!Even though the disturbance behind the door grew stronger, it remained closed, unable to be pushed open.As the impact of the disturbance grew more intense, it began to affect Bluebird herself. Her body started to tremble continuously, and a look of pain appeared on her face.The situation seemed to be worsening.Buzz!With a buzzing sound, Bluebird suddenly felt an external force appear. With the help of this tremendous external force, the disturbance behind the energy center surged!Boom!Suddenly, the door of the energy center was opened. A surge of power erupted from Bluebird's energy center.The Heaven's Gate had opened!However, because the power was too stron
The next morning, Bluebird awoke from her unconscious state. She found herself fully dressed and lying on Liam's bed."What happened?"Bluebird leapt from the bed. Her last memory from the previous day was pouring her heart out to Liam, then soaking in the Heaven's Gate herbal bath, feeling as if she were surrounded by flames. After that, everything went black."Grandmaster Burrey…"Bluebird hurriedly looked around. The tent was tidy, but there was no sign of Liam.Bluebird did not have time to notice the changes in her body as she quickly pushed open the tent door and stepped outside.Seeing Bluebird emerge from the tent, the Nine Nether squad members rushed to her, full of concern."Captain, are you alright?"Bluebird shook her head instinctively and looked around, trying to find Liam. "I'm fine. Where is Grandmaster Burrey?"Chimera stood at the front and quickly explained, "Grandmaster Burrey left the tent shortly after you went in yesterday. He said you needed rest and in
The main reason was that Liam had left in such a hurry.The Grand Tournament was about to start, and Liam leaving at that critical moment seemed like he had realized he could not change anything and decided to run away.Seeing Bluebird standing there in silence, Chimera became even more anxious."Captain, only you interacted with Grandmaster Burrey yesterday! Yesterday in the tent, did Grandmaster Burrey tell you any of the plans?""Grandmaster Burrey didn't tell me about the next training plan," Bluebird replied, shaking her head in response to Chimera's question.The situation left her feeling puzzled. Recalling what happened in the tent yesterday, she frowned and said, "Yesterday, I was in the tent taking a medicinal bath. Grandmaster Burrey told me that once the medicinal bath was over, the training would be complete.""The training would be complete after the medicinal bath?"Chimera was taken aback. The next moment, he widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Captain, I think Gran
Under the watchful eyes of the Nine Nether squad members, Griffon could not help but shudder and take a step back. He felt an inexplicable sensation, as if their team captain, Bluebird, had suddenly changed in some profound way.Before Griffon could ask what was going on, Bluebird's clear voice echoed again."Griffon, attack me!" she commanded, fixing her gaze on him."Captain, what are you..."Griffon was stunned by Bluebird's sudden request. Just moments ago, they had been discussing matters related to Liam. Why did she make such an unexpected demand?"I said, attack me!"Bluebird's voice grew cold as she repeated her order, seeing Griffon still rooted in place."Alright, Captain, but be careful..."Despite his confusion about Bluebird's intentions, Griffon had always believed in following orders. After giving his warning, his eyes sharpened in focus.In the next instant, he charged toward Bluebird like a fierce tiger. Though all members of the team had excellent physical ab
"What?"The moment he sensed what was happening, Griffon went into shock. However, it was too late for him to retreat. He followed quickly and arrived in front of Bluebird.Clenching his teeth, Griffon struck Bluebird just as he had the first time, delivering a fierce punch.Immediately, he saw a small, delicate, white fist appear in his line of sight. In the next instant, this small, delicate, white fist collided hard with his own!At the moment of impact, a muffled sound echoed.Griffon only felt an immense, boundless force surge through his fist. His body was thrown uncontrollably backward, crashing heavily to the ground!Seeing Chimera lying beside him, face contorted with pain, Griffon was stunned."Wait…"It was not just Griffon. The other three members of the Nine Nether squad halted abruptly at this scene.Yeti's voice trembled, as if he wanted to say something. "Captain, what… What's going on?"They were truly afraid that if they charged forward, the next person to b
However, Liam, who had taken a helicopter the day before, was unaware of what happened the next day. The reason he had hurriedly left the Nine Nether squad's base was simple.He had heard some news!During his time as an instructor at the Nine Nether squad's base, Liam had limited contact with the outside world due to the lack of cell phone signal. He could only reach out to others. It was difficult for others to contact him. Besides, there were not many people he needed to communicate with regularly. Thus, for the past ten days or so, he had lived quite peacefully.However, after helping Bluebird complete her breakthrough, he remembered his medicinal herb, Bellflower.It had been some time since the contract was signed. Liam wanted to check on the progress related to Bellflower, so he called Lucy.Over the phone, Liam learned that shortly after he left the sales office at Vientiane Bay, Serena arrived there alone. Before he could comment on that, Liam received shocking news fro
Gabriel laughed.He knew better than anyone how much Grandmaster Burrey disliked trouble.That's why he had not even considered informing Liam about the upcoming All-Army Special Forces Instructor Exchange Conference."But..."At that moment, a thought seemed to cross his mind.He suddenly paused, a complex look flashing in his eyes."I really didn't expect that the existence of martial artists in the Hestia military could be kept from me for so long..."It was evident.After the members of the Nine Nether Squad stepped into the martial path, it was impossible to keep it hidden any longer. As a result, Gabriel finally learned about the martial arts world.And the more he understood, the more dissatisfied he felt.In fact, there was even a hint of worry in his heart.To keep such a secret from the entire Central Military Region for so many years—even allowing them to suffer humiliation during the Special Forces competition without revealing a single word about martial artist
Gabriel clearly wanted to say something more.But when he saw Liam turn his head and glance at him calmly, he froze instantly and quickly shut his mouth.Gabriel did not dare to continue arguing with Grandmaster Burrey.Even though he stopped speaking, his thoughts remained unchanged.The matter regarding the Bastion Squad was definitely not that simple.Moreover, Grandmaster Burrey was seeing things too simply, but Gabriel did not mind.After all, from the beginning, he had not expected to find a real solution to the problem from Grandmaster Burrey.After all, Grandmaster Burrey was not part of the military, so it was natural that his suggestions were impractical.Just being able to learn from Grandmaster Burrey that Bluebird was still alive was already a gain.As for bringing Bluebird back or dealing with him, Gabriel had not even considered it!The moment he realized that Bluebird had chosen to follow Liam, he decided not to ask a single question more about it.In fact, h
He looked at Gabriel and responded calmly."Well..."Hearing this, Gabriel was suddenly stunned.The next moment, a bitter smile flashed across his face."That's true, but Grandmaster Burrey..." Gabriel sighed helplessly. "The problem really isn't that simple. The method you mentioned—I've actually considered it too."But no one knows where the Bastion Squad is now. Since they raised this issue with the Hestia military, it clearly means the problem hasn't been resolved, and they definitely won't show up."I also heard that the captain of the Bastion Squad, Benedict, seems to have passed away due to some issues related to Bluebird."With all these factors, even if we go through a lot of trouble to find the members of the Bastion Squad, they might not cooperate with us."Not to mention, we don't even have any leads on them."At this moment, he finally understood why Grandmaster Burrey seemed so indifferent.The method Grandmaster Burrey proposed was indeed good, but to actually
"I'm afraid they also want to come to the Central Military Region to get detailed information about the situation."A trace of concern flashed across Gabriel's face.Events involving the entire army were always grand, and the preparations had to be thorough.However, the sudden advancement of the instructor exchange meeting would definitely disrupt many of his original plans.Most importantly— All of this also involved Bluebird.Gabriel initially did not know the specific situation. Now, seeing that Bluebird was indeed still alive made things even more complicated for him.The incident happened suddenly, and the preparations were insufficient. For a moment, Gabriel didn't know how to continue covering up the matter about Bluebird.After all—The news of Bluebird's death directly led to the Western Military Region being penalized, and even the Bastion Squad was expelled from the army!If Bluebird was not dead, and such a huge misunderstanding had occurred, the other war zones
Is all of this real or fake?"Commander Warren."Bluebird looked at Gabriel, his voice cold and calm, and nodded slightly.Compared to before, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel had noticeably changed.If, in the past, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel was like that of a subordinate to a superior in the military, then now, although she still showed respect, that sense of duty-bound obedience was gone.Because Bluebird knew very well who she was serving now!"You're really not dead..."Hearing Bluebird's admission, a flash of utter shock crossed Gabriel's eyes.In the next moment."Grand... Grandmaster Burrey..."His eyes trembled as he looked at Liam, his voice so dry due to the shock that it came out strained.Gabriel was well aware of how severe Bluebird's injuries were at that time.It could be said that everyone present had basically declared Bluebird's death.When they returned to the temporary base of the Nine Nether Squad, it was merely to fulfill Bluebird's last
At the same time…Liam was completely unaware of everything happening in South City.He also had no idea that, due to some misunderstandings, Willow was already furious and seeking help to rescue him from the Central Military Region.At this moment, he had already arrived at the Southern Military Region and met with Gabriel, who was overwhelmed with work."Grandmaster Burrey, please don't blame me for not coming to greet you…"Noticing Liam's arrival, Gabriel forced a bitter smile. After glancing at the documents in his hand, he said helplessly, "I received an unexpected notice, and I really couldn't get away…"It was clear that Gabriel genuinely felt guilty about not being able to greet Grandmaster Burrey in person.Even now, having already met Liam, he was still busy explaining himself."No need."Liam shook his head calmly.He did not care about any of this.What Liam was concerned about was the matter regarding Bluebird that Gabriel mentioned over the phone."Go ahead.
"So, Miss Lloyd, you mean to ask me to get someone out of the military for you?"Hearing Serena's words, Kenton was stunned for a moment."Mister Welford, what's wrong?"Serena's voice suddenly became flustered. "Is it a bit difficult?""From what you're saying, the unit that took the person should belong to the Central Military Region, which is different from our Western Military Region."Kenton hesitated. "Crossing war zones is indeed a bit troublesome…""Mister Welford, you must help me!"Upon hearing this, Serena grew even more anxious. "We can pay, as long as you can rescue him…"However, before she could finish, Kenton's voice interrupted."But how could I refuse a beauty's request!" Kenton chuckled heartily. "Don't worry, even if it's difficult, I can handle it. Coincidentally, I'm in South City lately. Even the commander of the Central Military Region has to give me some face!""Just give me the details about your friend and wait for my news."His voice was full of co
"Then give it a try."Sam chuckled and agreed, "I just didn't expect that one day, our Lloyd Group would choose to save that worthless Liam!""Alright."Hearing the voices around her, Hailey also nodded in agreement.However, soon, she seemed to recall something, turned to look at Serena, and asked, "But do we really have the ability to get someone out of the military's hands?""Yes."Hearing this, Serena gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with determination."If you might have a way, then go ahead and try."Seeing this, Hailey said no more and waved her hand."I just hope we don't go through all this trouble, only for that ungrateful Liam to turn his back on us!""Mom, don't worry, that won't happen!"Serena shook her head.Immediately, she turned around and quickly left the Lloyd family mansion.Not long after, Serena returned to her office at Lloyd Group.She hurriedly made her way to her desk and started searching through a pile of documents.When she finally spott
"I…" Seeing this scene, Serena's body froze abruptly, trembling slightly out of anxiety.She desperately wanted to understand the situation immediately and help Liam.However, the situation in front of her made it clear that rushing off alone to save Liam was definitely not an option!"Phew…"Serena took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.Was there any way to convince the members of the Lloyd family to help Liam?The next moment, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something."Mom, it's not that I care about Liam, but if we want to collaborate with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation on the White Glycoside Cream project, Liam cannot be in trouble!"Serena raised her head and looked at Hailey."What does our Lloyd Group's collaboration with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation have to do with that useless Liam?"Hailey frowned deeply."Mom! Think about Liam's relationship with Lucy, and you'll understand!"Serena hurriedly replied, "When you were discu
