Chapter 100 I'm Driving a Land Rover
The three were excited for a while. Kevin put his arm around Anthony's shoulder, looked him up and down, and joked with a smile, "Why are you back? Just like I guessed, young master Richard couldn't stand Chiffon, so you ran back to take refuge?"
Anthony shoved him hard and snapped, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"The chiffon cake is amazing, a hundred times better than you imagine! Don't just keep asking me, haven't you guys noticed anything?"
After saying that, a smug look appeared on his face, and he slightly puffed out his chest, suddenly releasing his deliberately restrained aura.
A faint aura of extraordinary energy lingered around him. Though not strong, it was incredibly real, the unique aura of a beginner-level extraordinary being.
Almost simultaneously, Im, who was beside him, also released his own life aura.
Martin and Kevin's smiles froze instantly, their eyes widened, and their mouths gaped open enough to fit a fist.
"You guys actually broke through to the extraordinary level!?"
Kevin's shocked voice became shrill and high-pitched, like a thunderclap in the training field, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
The veterans, who had been chatting in small groups in various corners of the training ground, all turned to look at the source of the voices.
When they saw Im and Anthony on the edge of the West court, their reactions were similar to Kevin and Martin's—they all looked surprised.
When they left, no one was optimistic, thinking they were going to their deaths in that harsh, cold place.
But now they're back, not only unharmed, but they've also broken through to the extraordinary level!
The retired veterans all swarmed around, forming a dense circle around Im, Anthony, Kevin, and Martin.
A cacophony of voices rose and fell.
"Hey! Im, you little brat, tell me the truth, how did you guys manage to do this?"
"Anthony, did young master Richard buy a lot of life-sustaining food for you to eat?"
"Is that even a question? Of course! Otherwise, how could they possibly break through to the extraordinary level with their mediocre talent?"
A barrage of questions rained down, making everyone's ears ring. The crowd grew increasingly agitated, and everyone's face wore undisguised envy.
Their eyes were fixed on Im and Anthony, as if they wanted to extract every possible answer from them.
Seeing everyone's excited expressions, Anthony and Im's smugness grew even stronger, almost making them stick their chins out to the sky.
After a while, Im raised his hand and gently pressed it down on the crowd, instantly silencing the noisy crowd.
"Everyone, please be quiet."
"I can tell you how we broke through to the extraordinary realm, and I can even help you all step into the extraordinary realm like us."
These words were like pouring cold water into hot oil, instantly causing an uproar!
An uproar erupted in the training ground; shock replaced all other emotions on their faces, and even their breathing became rapid.
"What did you say? You want us all to break through to the extraordinary realm? How is that possible?!"
"Did you eat too much garlic and get a sore throat? Why are you so arrogant? Even a wolf wouldn't do something like that!"
"Im, that's enough. If you keep toying with us, believe me, I'll pull your pants down and throw you out into the street so you can show off your ass!"
The crowd became restless again; some were excited, some were doubtful, and some were even furious.
The situation was almost out of control.
Martin was already excited by the news of Anthony's breakthrough to the superhuman level, and when he heard Im's words, he became even more anxious and roared at the crowd.
"Shut up, all of you!!"
His roar, imbued with the fierce aura honed over ten years of military training, instantly silenced all the noise.
The training ground fell silent. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Im and Anthony, and no one dared to breathe loudly.
Martin stepped forward, grabbed Anthony's arm, and stared at him with sharp, piercing eyes.
"Explain yourself clearly. Was what Im just said true or false?"
"If you're really here to make fun of us old brothers, even if you've reached the transcendent level now, you'll be crawling out of this training ground today!"
Although they are ordinary people, it would be incredibly easy for hundreds of well-trained retired veterans to take down two low-level superhumans.
Kevin stepped forward, grabbed Anthony's other shoulder, and looked more serious than ever before.
Judging from his expression...
If Anthony doesn't give them a satisfactory explanation, things will definitely not end well today.
It's not just them.
The eyes of all the veterans around were red.
It was the stimulation from the word "extraordinary" they used that reignited the resentment and obsession that had been suppressed in my heart for many years.
This desire has long been ingrained in my bones. Even if I only become a beginner-level extraordinary being, it would be better than living a normal life!
If Im and Anthony were truly there to toy with them, it would be like stabbing their already shattered hearts in another wound, trampling on their last hope and pride.
Looking at everyone's red eyes, at the urgency and doubt in their eyes, and at that barely concealed expectation.
The smiles on Im and Anthony's faces slowly faded, their expressions hardening and becoming extremely serious.
Anthony's gaze swept over everyone present, his voice steady and powerful.
"We are here today not to amuse anyone, not to have fun, and certainly not to show off."
"I, Anthony, swear by the honor of the Wolf of Glory, that as long as you make the choices I want, I guarantee you will all break through the threshold of the extraordinary."
His words struck like a hammer blow to everyone's heart. The soldiers of Benlang have always valued honor above all else, and they swear by the honor of Benlang that they will never lie.
As soon as Anthony finished speaking, Im immediately took over the conversation, his expression equally serious.
"Just remember this."
"Whatever choice you make today, everything you hear and see here must be kept strictly confidential."
"Anyone who dares to utter a single word about this place will face the wrath of Im, who will show no mercy!"
Done.
He raised his hand and patted the sword at his waist.
This is a warning.
But it is not a threat.
He just wanted everyone to understand the seriousness of the matter.
The training ground fell silent again. Everyone held their breath, watching Im and Anthony, their hearts churning.
The opportunity to step into the extraordinary is right in front of you, within reach.
This was the opportunity they had dreamed of their whole lives, a threshold they had never been able to reach despite countless drops of sweat and pain.
However, behind this opportunity lies an unknown choice and strict confidentiality requirements.
They all knew in their hearts that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and such a precious opportunity could not possibly fall into their laps for no reason.
That choice...
What could it be?
Should they return to the army, take up arms, and rush to the battlefield, or should they follow young master Richard to that Chiffon Wasteland?
Kevin and Martin also released Anthony's arms, exchanged a glance, and saw the determination in each other's eyes.
They both pounded their chests at the same time.
They said in unison, "We, Kevin and Martin, swear on the honor of the Wolfpack that we will never reveal the secrets we have seen and heard today."
See here.
All the other veterans present also swore together that they would keep this secret.
Im nodded.
His gaze swept over his former comrades present once more, and he slowly spoke, revealing the choice that drove everyone into a frenzy.
"As long as you are willing to give up your past as the Wolf of the North and take up arms to serve Chiffon, Lord Richard promises that he will enable each of you to break through to the extraordinary."
"I also assure you all that as long as you are willing to offer your absolute loyalty to Chiffon, you will all have a bright future."
"Chiffon will also bestow upon you unparalleled glory and wealth you could never even dream of!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions froze, as if they hadn't yet grasped what Im had said.
Abandoning the past of the Wolf of the North, to the bitterly cold lands of the far north...?
The wolf is their homeland, the place where they grew up, their roots, and everything.
Chiffon Wasteland was nothing more than a strange, barren, extremely cold land that no one had high hopes for.
but...
Is it even necessary to consider this?
"I'll go."
Martin's voice was soft, but its weight was enough to break through a city wall. He stared intently at Im and choked out, "As long as Young Master Richard doesn't despise my mediocre talent and aptitude, I am willing to offer him my loyalty."
"I'll go too."
Kevin followed closely behind.
"I."
"And me too."
"I'll go too."
Ten years of hard work.
A decade of longing.
Faced with a life already lost to the masses, no one will give up this last hope.
