They have already been briefed about the operation, and also knew that the company was sending them a captain. They were even talking about it just now and were a little anticipant.
This operation was not simple, and the company will definitely send a high-level Arcanist, perhaps even a Level 4 one. Then they can ask a thing or two, or even foster a good relationship.
It turned out too good to be true. The level 4 Arcanist was nowhere in sight, but instead, a punk came in his place, how could they take it?
“Miss Luo, this joke has gone too far!”
Before Ling Jiu even spoke, the squad leader of the T-Rex squad spoke. “This operation between two base cities, and more than 400 Arcanists working together!”
“Moreover, we are going into the Qin Mountains, and the Daba Mountains, the dangers there are unimaginable, and you are letting a little punk be our captain?”
“Danger aside, if the other companies find out that the captain leading the Pangu squads is a punk, won’t we be laughed our way out?”
“Miss Luo, you should change him with someone else. If the company really cannot spare the manpower, then we don’t need a captain. In any case, our two squads are more than enough!”
“Yeah, Miss Luo…”
The team members all spoke one after another.
Arcanists respected strength and age represented strength to a certain extent. Ling Jiu looked like he had not even had hair down there, what sort of strength such a kid could have?
Luo Jia frowned and was a little unhappy as Ling Jiu faintly said, “A group of oil farts, all of you are not all that strong, but your tempers sure are.”
“Kid, what did you say?”
Huang Hailong widened his eyes as he glared at Ling Jiu, the other members also stared at Ling Jiu angrily, their expressions sour.
“Let’s cut the nonsense, all of you can take me on at once!”
Ling Jiu walked to the center of the training room. “Let me see if your strength is as strong as the words coming out of your mouth!”
Huang Hailong was stunned!
All of the other members were also stunned!
Taking on all of them all at once?
Did he want to fight solo against two squads?
F*ck!
Upon realizing that, the members of both squads blew their fuses.
“Arrogant!”
“Insolent!”
“Way over your head!”
“Boy, you are way too arrogant!”
Huang Hailong looked at Luo Jia. “Miss Luo, the kid you brought here lacks discipline, so get him to apologize to us immediately or otherwise, I don’t mind disciplining him for his parents!”
“Discipline him? Up to you lot!”
Luo Jia said impatiently. “I’ve brought you guys your captain, whether you recognize him or not is none of my business. All right, I have work to do, so you guys continue talking!”
After that, Luo Jia nodded to Ling Jiu, and then left the training room, not forgetting to close the door of the training room as she left.
There was no need to watch what would happen next, as the results were already set in stone.
“Boy, apologize to us this once!”
Seeing Luo Jia leave, the members of both squads were relieved, they then looked at Ling Jiu all at once, with a look of ridicule and displeasure in their eyes.
“Apologize? Sure!”
Ling Jiu hooked his finger. “If you can beat me, forget apologize, I will even kneel and kowtow!”
“What an impudent punk!”
“You’re too bloody arrogant, oh my temper’s boiling…
“Who will teach him a lesson?”
Huang Hailong looked at everyone.
“Me!”
Zhang Yuan stood up: “Boy, I’ve never met anyone as arrogant as you!”
As soon as his voice trailed off, Zhang Yuan grabbed at the void, and a shot put in the training room flew up, and blasted out like a cannonball out of the barrel at Ling Jiu.
The weight of the shot put was amazing, and under Zhang Yuan’s control, its speed was terrifying. If it was to strike someone on the body, it can definitely kill that person.
“Child’s play!”
Ling Jiu showed a look of disdain, and no one saw what he did as the shot put flying at him suddenly veered towards the ground and slammed straight into the rubber mat floor, letting out a muffled bang, and stopped moving.
“Hmmm?”
Everyone let out a soft whisper of confusion.
Although Zhang Yuan did not use his full strength, the high-speed shot put was not that easy to catch. Yet the punk before him did not do anything and had changed the trajectory of the shot?
“What Arcana was that?”
“Metal Manipulation? Gravity Manipulation Or Air Manipulation?
“Punk, you do have some tricks up your sleeves!”
“I did underestimate you somewhat!”
Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes and grabbed the void with both hands as seven or eight alloy spears flew up into the sky and shot at Ling Jiu like bolts of lightning.
“Just this? Seems like I had expected a little too much from you lot! Forget it, let’s end this boring farce!”
Ling Jiu shook his head slightly, and as a thought flashed past his mind, a terrifying gravitational force suddenly enveloped the entire training room.
Baaaaam!!
Everyone, including Zhang Yuan, suddenly felt a terrible pressure upon their bodies as if Mount Olympus was pressing upon them. Their bodies were bent, and the bones in their bodies made a crackling sound.
“Gra… Gravity!”
“What terrifying gravity!”
“His Arcana is Gravity Manipulation!”
All of the squad members were shocked. It was not like they have not seen a Gravity Manipulation-type Arcanist, but the current gravitational force is just too terrifying!
They felt dizzy and found it difficult to breathe as they were unable to even straighten their bodies. Even movements became extremely difficult, let alone fighting!
“Activate!”
Suddenly a roar rang out, as a person grew inches by inches, and in the blink of an eye, he grew into a two-meter-tall being that looked a robot made out of alloy.
“Ol’ Meng!”
The squad members were shocked and all looked at the ‘robot’ at the same time. That person was a member of the Windchaser Squad, Meng Lijun.
“Boy, I’ll take you down!”
Meng Lijun roared and then charged in a fury towards Ling Jiu against the terrifying 8 times the gravitational force.
Baaaam!!
Baaaaaam!!
Baaaaaaamm!!
His feet stomped on the floor, and the ground trembled. Soon, he was upon Ling Jiu as he raised his fist and blasted it out.
“Tsk! As expected of the Arcana I desire!”
Ling Jiu sighed inwardly, and at the moment Meng Lijun’s fist struck, he controlled his osmium soil to meet the attack.
Baaaaam!!
The fist collided with the osmium soil and a loud bang rang out. Before Meng Lijun could even throw out a second punch, a large amount of osmium soil fell upon and wrapped around him.
“Sand Binding Coffin !”
Meng Lijun struggled frantically, but under the pressure of the 8 times gravity, his movements came more and more difficult, let alone resisting the binding of the osmium soil.
In the end, Meng Lijun was completely buried by the osmium soil and transformed into a small hill, with only his head sticking out.
Meng Lijun struggled and struggled, but he could not break free. The osmium soil was just too heavy.
“Save your breath!”
Ling Jiu looked at Meng Lijun. “Eight times gravity alongside osmium soil 20 times heavier than sand, even if you are Sun Wukong you’ll never break free!”
Meng Lijun looked flustered and finally gave up. “I admit defeat!”
“How about the rest?”
“I give up!”
“We admit defeat!”
“Captain, please remove the gravity, I’m almost at my limit…”
