Chapter 50

"Alright, rest is over."

"Let's go."

The 9 members of the Silver Snake Mercenary Group instantly stopped playing around,

and silently followed behind Lu Shu to start retreating from this small village.

They all tacitly kept a distance of at least half a body length behind Lu Shu.

Seeing this marching formation,

Su Mu and Zhang Zhe looked at each other,

and were shocked again.

Both of them knew

that what the members were showing

was an attitude of respect.

After coming out of the small fishing village,

the sky had already turned completely dark.

The Silver Snake Mercenary Group walked quietly in the desert.

The area on the west side of Gaza City

was almost all desert,

and the end of the desert connected to the sea.

Su Mu and Zhang Zhe, as well as the only cameraman,

walked at the back of the team,

filming the footage of the Silver Snake Mercenary Group marching.

Lu Shu had already moved to a position slightly ahead of the three of them.

Su Mu asked softly,

"Where are we going now?"

Lu Shu glanced at the night scene around him,

and answered casually,

"To buy equipment."

"Fighting in a tracksuit isn't very good."

Hearing this,

the netizens in the livestream all laughed,

"Wearing a tracksuit didn't seem to affect you suppressing that M249 just now..."

"Exactly! And you suppressed it so well."

"You gained 4 KD as soon as you arrived."

"Anyway, Student Lu Shu, we hold a skeptical attitude toward whatever you say now."

Su Mu, who received the response, just nodded.

She seemed to be able to feel

that Lu Shu's mood right now...

was a bit good?

He was even humming a song while walking.

Lu Shu's mood was indeed very good right now.

Although they had just encountered a sneak attack from a hostile mercenary group,

and everyone had fought a round without equipment,

there were no casualties among the members.

And as soon as they arrived,

he gained 4 KD.

According to the terms of this mercenary mission,

100,000 dollars per head,

it would all be settled when the mission ended later.

The official mission hadn't even started yet,

and he already had 800,000 in the account.

The members under him could also earn quite a bit.

So sweet!

Actually, if he hadn't been short on ammunition just now,

the bounty he could have gotten for his members would have been even higher.

And as soon as the other party saw him appear,

they took the initiative to retreat.

That was also a little bit of a pity.

However, he wasn't in a hurry,

he had just started his vacation,

and there was still plenty of time.

It was just that

the members of the Silver Snake Mercenary Group had just arrived here from various countries,

and they weren't carrying much weaponry or equipment.

That small-scale battle just now

had completely exhausted their weapons and supplies.

So now he had to take his members to replenish them first.

Zhang Zhe, who was following at his side,

had already silently noted down the information "Commander Lu Shu" firmly in his heart.

Compared to Su Mu's surprise,

he, who knew more, was actually even more shocked!

He knew very well how much deterrent power was needed

to become the commander of a mercenary group!

Looking at Lu Shu walking in front,

Zhang Zhe asked thoughtfully,

"Which side is the mercenary mission you accepted this time for?"

Then Zhang Zhe saw

Lu Shu's gaze sweep over him lightly.

This look

gave him a bizarre feeling that everything had been seen through.

But it was just a glance,

and then Lu Shu spoke softly.

"The Batan nation's."

Hearing this answer,

Zhang Zhe couldn't help but speak out,

"It's actually the mercenary mission for the weaker side?"

Lu Shu nodded,

"Mercenary groups only carry out the mission they are hired for."

"So whether it's the stronger or weaker side of the war, it has no impact on me."

"I just need to get the mercenary mission completed."

Su Mu was confused by what she heard,

but Zhang Zhe understood.

Such strong self-confidence...

But Su Mu asked in a low voice.

"What does that mean?"

Zhang Zhe looked at the team marching silently in front,

and explained.

"There is a distinction between the strong and the weak in the war."

"This difference will bring about huge differences in the pattern of the frontal battlefield."

"Generally speaking, accepting a mercenary mission from the stronger side is relatively easier."

"But Lu Shu means that even if it's the weaker side, he can ensure the mercenary mission is completed."

Su Mu nodded as if she understood,

"So, he chose the most difficult one?"

Zhang Zhe shook his head with a bitter smile,

"Strictly speaking,"

"he might have chosen the side that pays higher commission."

"Because often the weaker side gives much higher commission when they issue a mercenary mission..."

Once this was said,

Su Mu understood.

She smiled confidently.

"Then I understand."

"This is completely Student Lu Shu's style!"

The netizens in the livestream also agreed extremely.

"Haha! I agree with this point!"

"As expected of my Lu God!"

"Whether it's difficult or not isn't the problem, the key is that the pay must be high!"

"It seems that even if he's a part-time mercenary, my Brother Lu's style remains the same!"

After all, they had been watching the livestream for so long,

and everyone was quite familiar with that little quirk of Lu Shu's.

It was just that hearing Su Mu's teasing tone,

Zhang Zhe's expression was serious,

"This is war."

"The war situation between the two countries is already very severe now."

"Although there aren't many big moves on the surface,"

"privately, each side has already issued countless mercenary missions."

"Dozens of mercenary groups from all over the world have already come here."

"The Batan nation needs these mercenary groups to help escort supplies to Gaza City."

"And the mercenary mission on the Israeli nation's side is to prevent these supplies from entering."

"Under the war needs of both sides, this place will become a battlefield for mercenary groups."

"And even become a private war meat grinder."

Zhang Zhe's tone was very heavy.

In essence,

mercenary groups are a group of people driven by interests.

Wherever there is war,

there will be their shadows.

So under the high commission,

more and more mercenary groups will participate in this war.

"The tragic state of Gaza,"

"has already caused a huge international reaction."

"But the Israeli nation has no intention of stopping at all."

"The war has continued to this day."

"It's no longer just a matter for the two countries themselves."

"Behind it, there are forces from other countries supporting them."

"Just like the Israeli nation."

"The support behind it comes from the forces led by the United States."

"They are attempting to plot more interests through this war."

"So the citizens of the entire Gaza City have become the most innocent victims."

"You will even find that many of the mercenary groups for the Israeli nation are hired by the United States..."

Hearing this,

not only Su Mu,

but even the netizens felt a surge of anger.

"Too hateful!"

"As expected, the United States is behind everything causing trouble!!!"

"For their own interests, they export war everywhere."

"Such a country should have disappeared long ago!"

"No, war is one thing, the key is that they don't even care about humanitarianism."

"I saw the news before, many of the injured and dead in Gaza City were children."

"Sigh, watching those children turn into cold corpses is too painful..."

"Damn! Bastards! Smash them hard!"

"Lu God! Can you go work part-time in the United States sometime..."

"We'll crowdfund your commission,"

"I want to see the Pentagon explode on the spot!"

The team marched silently,

and soon,

a faint light appeared ahead.

Looking from afar,

that was also an abandoned small village,

only now there seemed to be sporadic figures in the village,

and there was an iconic bonfire in the very center.

"This should be a supply point."

"It's possible that it's a place specifically for mercenary groups to resupply."

Zhang Zhe explained softly on the side.

Standing on top of a sand dune,

Su Mu saw Lu Shu stop.

He signaled two members with his eyes.

"Bearded man, Niya, you two go."

"The others wait here with me."

"Okay, Commander."

"Understood, Captain."
