A group of field staff surrounded Gao Xuan and Bison, their eyes flickering, some gloating, some excited.
This conflict came a little suddenly, but it was also expected by many people.
It is not easy to get promoted in an armed department like the Field Support Department.
Wei Ying was okay, he had a strong background and strong subordinates. Although he had a bad temper and was immature in his work, these two points were enough to control the situation.
Gao Xuan is far inferior.
Gao Xuan was just an average member of the 300-plus field team. What does average mean? If you remove the tail, there are at least 100 people who are on par with him. There are also 100 people who are slightly better than him.
Gao Xuan's only impressive achievement was killing an apostle of the evil god. But luck played a big role in that kind of thing.
What's even more annoying is that Gao Xuan's promotion has nothing to do with this incident. It's all because Gao Xuan got a hold of a beautiful woman.
To be honest, everyone was particularly jealous of this. Gao Xuan was the team leader, directly commanding everyone, which made the conflict inevitable.
Everyone wanted to see how Gao Xuan would deal with the attack from the wild bull. If he couldn't handle it well, he would lose face.
To everyone's surprise, Gao Xuan did not get angry. He just said calmly: "Follow orders, drive this group of people away, leave two people to watch the entrance, and the others continue to move forward."
Bison was also a little surprised that Gao Xuan was so deep at his age. This was really rare.
You have to know that these people are all warriors trained by the company. They have some cultural knowledge, but the level is very low. Moreover, the company does not teach knowledge such as management and sociology.
The people in the field department are simple-minded soldiers after all. Bison has been working in the company for more than ten years and has learned some principles of dealing with people.
Wild Bull suddenly attacked just to provoke Gao Xuan and humiliate him. He wanted to vent his anger. If Gao Xuan couldn't handle it well, he wouldn't have the face to command others.
This operation is so important, if he can stand up and show his ability, well, that would be a great honor.
Wild Bull had no idea how Wei Ying would react, and he didn't care. In his eyes, Wei Ying was just an ignorant woman who came to gild herself.
As a result, Gao Xuan's calm reaction made Bison a little overwhelmed.
Seeing that the bison was standing still, Gao Xuan asked calmly, "Why, do you want to disobey orders?"
A fierce light flashed in Bison's eyes. Gao Xuan was really using his position to pressure him, which made him extremely furious.
He believed that with just one punch, with the help of the light exoskeleton armor, he could blow Gao Xuan's head apart with one punch. Even with Gao Xuan's protective mask!
Gao Xuan just looked at the bison calmly, his eyes filled with indifference and depth.
Bison really widened his eyes, but he could not see any uneasiness, hesitation, or fear in Gao Xuan's eyes. On the contrary, the other party's indifferent and deep gaze made his heart chill, and he slowly calmed down.
Directly attacking a commander, even a temporary commander, is a serious crime. He can hardly bear the consequences.
Bison turned his eyes away helplessly. He cursed at his team members: "What the hell are you looking at? Why aren't you working? You're a bunch of rubbish."
The 10 members of the group were scolded, but no one dared to say anything. At this time, Bison was very angry and had no place to vent. Whoever said anything would be in trouble.
Several team members walked over, shouted and drove them away. The group of guys lying on the ground were driven out of the passage, crawling and rolling.
Two people were left to guard the entrance to the passage, while the others continued to move forward.
In this way, every time they passed an entrance, they left someone to guard it.
Gao Xuan has a map of Anxi Fort, but this map is quite old. It is said to have been found in archives hundreds of years ago.
Hundreds of years have passed, and this underground building has changed a lot. Some passages have completely collapsed, and some places where there were no passages have been forcibly opened.
In addition, there are some messy transformations.
Although the general structure is correct, many details are not correct.
Moreover, there were too many people here. Gao Xuan and his companions encountered more than a dozen groups of people along the way. There were hundreds of people.
Wild Bull still suggested killing them all, but Gao Xuan naturally couldn't do that. He wasn't afraid of killing people, but he wouldn't kill them indiscriminately.
Even though these people at the bottom of society are living a life worse than death, each of them is like a ghost.
Gao Xuan found a closed space and drove everyone in. Of course, not everyone was willing to obey orders.
In the process of executing the order, someone opened fire directly, killing several people on the spot. The others then became obedient.
Gao Xuan was also somewhat helpless about this. These people were really brainless. They dared to confront others even though they had guns in their hands.
Gao Xuan couldn't help him because he was so irresponsible with his own life. He didn't agree with this approach, but that was how the world was.
Personal ideas of good and evil have no value here. The company's values are what count.
This world is so realistic and so indifferent. If you don't understand this truth, it will be difficult to survive in this world. This is the simplest truth of survival.
Gao Xuan didn't like this world, but he could accept the reality. He was no longer the high and mighty Gao Xuan, and the world would not revolve according to his will.
To put it even more unpleasantly, he can hardly control his own destiny now, let alone the destiny of others.
Gao Xuan led the team forward and arrived at the designated location, the entrance of a hall.
The hall was very spacious, with about five to six hundred people gathered inside. They all knelt facing the hall, muttering some spells.
The Alliance has only one faith, the Temple. Other than that, all other faiths are cults.
There is no doubt that people kneeling and chanting in this place are all cultists.
Gao Xuan still had twenty people left under his command. According to the situation at the entrance of the hall, Gao Xuan set up three defense points at the entrance.
His mission was to control the passage here and not allow anyone to enter or leave.
As for the evil god believers inside, as long as they don’t come out, it has nothing to do with him.
While the defense points were being set up in the rear, Gao Xuan stood at the gate and silently watched the group of believers.
Finding self-worth through belief in evil gods is both a tragedy of the times and an individual tragedy.
Gao Xuan doesn't sympathize with anyone, he has never been that noble.
Thousands of years ago, he desperately wanted to change the end of human destruction. That was his obsession. He never thought that this was how noble his morality was or how kind his heart was.
In the end, he just wanted to do it.
In the words of the bald man, it's just a matter of interest.
He completed his mission thousands of years ago, and he did his best to reform the Alliance. He did not feel responsible for the way humans had become.
However, out of basic empathy, he still hated this scene.
Gao Xuan didn't like pity or sympathy. These emotions were condescending, and he didn't think he was qualified.
We are all adults and everyone is responsible for his or her own destiny. That's all.
The believers in the hall had no idea that someone was watching them at the door.
The fundamental reason for believing in gods is not that gods need them, but that they need gods and need faith.
For them, in this cold and cruel world, faith is the only spiritual comfort and the last spiritual home.
Gao Xuan was not just watching the fun in the back. Through the ultra-high-definition camera on the helmet, the body data of all people in the hall were scanned and recorded.
This data will then be fed back to the company through the mobile data transmitters they carry with them.
The company will use a super optical computer to compare data to determine the identity of everyone.
Of course, many people were born in the underground world and may have never been to the surface in their entire lives, let alone register their identity information with relevant authorities.
After waiting for three minutes, the company's feedback came back.
70% of the people had their identities confirmed, and all of them were recognized as senior believers of the Moon God Cult.
Even if a person was originally a good person, if he becomes a believer of an evil god and his spirit is polluted by the evil god, he will gradually turn into a monster.
The Moon Goddess Cult has such a great reputation in Mingjing because it has gained it through killing.
After confirming that the other party was a follower of the Moon God Cult, Gao Xuan felt relieved. Since the target was correct, there was no need to hesitate.
At this moment, a loud rumbling noise suddenly came from deep in the hall.
The entire hall was shaking and trembling, with countless dust falling from above.
The evil god's believers in the hall were also shocked. They all stood up and looked ahead in panic.
A man stood up in front and shouted, "Someone is invading. Brothers and sisters, we must fight back. Everyone, follow me!"
This person knew very well that the Moon God Cult was in a very bad situation and was being hunted down by the Yuanlong Company.
There must be a fight going on inside. If you don't run now, you will die.
So, although he spoke passionately, he led everyone in the hall out.
Gao Xuan had to speak. He fired a shot upwards. The sound of the bullet pushed by gunpowder was very powerful, and it was especially loud in the closed hall.
He shouted: "Everyone get down on the ground immediately. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy."
The leader was also startled when he saw someone at the door. But he was not willing to surrender. He shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid, let's kill him together!"
A dull and powerful gunshot ended the man's scream. The armor-piercing bullet directly shattered the guy's head.
Many followers of evil gods do not take other people's lives seriously, but now they are a little afraid of death.
Everyone stood there, at a loss as to what to do.
Gao Xuan was about to order the group of people to lie down when a young woman in a white robe suddenly jumped out from the depths of the hall.
The woman was very beautiful. Although she was far away, Gao Xuan could still see the small black spot on her mouth through the tactical optical scope.
That’s right, this is Crescent Moon, one of the seven apostles of the Moon God.
The culprit, Gao Xuan, fired continuously without hesitation.
The muzzle of the automatic assault rifle sprays flames, and the gunpowder-propelled armor-piercing bullets are fired at high speed.
Xinyue, wearing a white robe, kept adjusting her body to dodge and was always able to avoid Gao Xuan's shooting one step ahead.
This extraordinarily sharp sensitivity and extraordinarily fast movement surprised Gao Xuan a little.
A thousand years have passed, the cultivation system has made great progress, and the evil god has also become more powerful
Of course, Gao Xuan could use the Mysterious Divine Seal to attack the opponent. As long as there was a momentary delay, a single shot would be enough to blow the opponent's head off.
But at this time, Gao Xuan didn't want to be too prominent.
Xinyue reacted quickly. She let out a scream and chanted some spell, and a ball of light like a curved blade appeared behind her.
Xinyue pointed her slender white finger forward, "Brothers and sisters, kill!"
At the command, the eyes of many believers immediately turned red, and they rushed towards Gao Xuan like wolves seeing blood.
