Beast World: The villain mermaid cub refuses to become a good person

Chapter 217 Backbone

“Yu Manman, you should stay as the team leader,” Ackerman said.

The females looked at each other, not quite understanding, but the others were convinced.

Although Yu Manman is female, her overall strength is no weaker than theirs, and she even knows more than them.

For example, last week, someone experienced a sudden emergency, and while several medical students couldn't diagnose the problem, Yu Manman had already resolved it perfectly. After that, they were completely impressed by Yu Manman, and several medical students even excitedly sought her advice…

For example, someone experienced mental confusion due to excessive stress. Before anyone else noticed, Yu Manman was the first to inquire about the stressed-out beastman and helped him resolve the problem. It's fair to say that Yu Manman possesses exceptional insight.

Over the next two weeks, the eighty-one members got to know each other and worked together. They provided the five females with more in-depth training, mainly in mental strength and the purification of the mental sea. However, the females also needed at least half a day of practical combat training to ensure they had a certain level of coping ability so that they could protect themselves even without male beastmen around.

Yu Manman, on the other hand, is a combatant, not a support, so she doesn't need to be trained with them.

Most of their training was the same. The others also trained their mental strength, but the proportion of time spent on it was different. Yu Manman mainly trained in combat with the male orcs, such as how to materialize mental strength so that her mental body could fight alongside them!
As for purification power, Yu Manman would also set aside about an hour to train it.

"Are you ready?"

Ackerman watched the team below, who had been training hard for three weeks.

"Ready at all the time!"

After more than half a month of training, their mental state has changed significantly. They all stand tall with their heads held high and their eyes sharp, like a sharpened knife.

"set off!"

"Yes! Instructor!"

They boarded the yacht, dressed in special combat uniforms.

Wu Yingyue sat down next to Yu Manman with bright eyes.

“It’s incredible…” she said softly.

Wu Yingyue's life path had been preordained since childhood. She never imagined that one day she would join such a team! Even if she didn't have to fight in the water, it was still a thrill for her!

"I will train harder in the future so that I can fight alongside you someday." Wu Yingyue looked at Yu Manman with longing in her eyes.

"Yes, I will." Yu Manman smiled.

She recently discovered that while Wu Yingyue appears to be a very well-behaved girl, she actually enjoys doing exciting things. Coming here seems to have opened the door to a new world, revealing that there's so much more she can do!
She wants to learn how to use a gun and how to fight, and she's not afraid of getting injured!
"You have a great talent for shooting!" Yu Manman encouraged him. "Given time, you will definitely become a sharpshooter!"

This is not an exaggeration on Yu Manman's part.

She discovered that Wu Yingyue was really talented in this area. Although she hadn't trained for long, she could make the bullet holes overlap when shooting at a stationary target, and she could also hit the nine or ten rings when shooting at a moving target!
Wu Yingyue smiled shyly, "I didn't expect this either..."

The other females nodded silently after hearing Wu Yingyue and Yu Manman's conversation.

They shared the same idea as Wu Yingyue; they also wanted to be part of the fight!
The instructors had high expectations for them, but not as high as Yu Manman and the others! Their most basic requirement was self-defense.

But being in such a team and witnessing Yu Manman's strength, they also yearn for it, and their goal is no longer simply to be a support purifier.

"Whoosh—" On the sea, a huge whale emerged from the water, flipped over, and splashed up high waves.

The whale was only a hundred meters away from their yacht.

However, they had all learned how to use their mental power to distinguish between primitive and corrupted species. The whale that was not far from them was just a primitive creature and had not mutated.

They used their mental powers to probe and discovered that it was a blue whale that was over thirty meters long but had a relatively gentle temperament.

What a huge blue whale! It's almost as big as their yacht!

This was Yu Manman's first time observing whales up close, and she found it all very novel.

"We are about to reach a low-to-medium danger zone. Please be aware," Ackerman said, holding a miniature walkie-talkie. "Today, you will be randomly divided into groups of five to work together to deal with a Fallen creature with a danger level of A."

"From the moment the Fallen Ones appear, there is a ten-minute time limit. Teams that fail to complete the task must swim back to shore on their own."

They looked at each other, wondering whether to swim back.

That would mean swimming for several hours!

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Ackerman nodded, then turned his gaze to the six females, including Yu Manman, and said, "Today, you will form six-person teams and hunt down a B-grade Fallen Species! The time limit is also ten minutes. If you fail the test, you will have to swim back to the base on your own."

"Us?" Wu Yingyue asked with some worry, fearing that she might be dragging Yu Manman back.

The girls who were selected are quite capable, but compared to those who went through multiple rounds of selection, there is still a significant difference.

"Don't worry, we can definitely do it!" Yu Manman said. "Yingyue, your marksmanship is good, and your mental strength is the strongest. Stay on the ship and keep an eye on the location of the Fallen Ones, and look for opportunities to kill them."

"We've also learned about the weaknesses of various Fallen Ones these past few days. Once you find its weakness, the probability of killing it is very high!"

"And An Yan, your beast form and your materialized spiritual body are both very strong, and their coordination is also very high. As long as you calm down, your strength is in no way inferior to mine."

Tao Anyan's prototype is an orca with S-level mental strength, but she is not well trained and tends to panic when faced with problems.

"Xixue, you're from the Eagle Clan, so your observation skills are very sharp. You can command from the air and oversee the entire operation. If anything unexpected happens, notify us immediately!"

"You Xiao, you're fast underwater, you can find an opportunity to lure the Fallen to the surface, which will also make it easier for Yingyue to shoot them!"

"Ah Chang, your defense and attack power are both very strong, and your ranged and melee combat skills are also quite good..."

"Thank you so much, Manman!"

After Yu Manman's analysis, the five of them felt less nervous and more confident in dealing with the Fallen Ones. They looked at Yu Manman and immediately regarded her as their backbone.

"We're a team! As long as we work together, we can definitely do it!"

Actually, Yu Manman wasn't entirely confident, after all, this was her first time receiving a mission to kill corrupted beings. But if she panicked now, what would happen during the assessment later?
"First group, get ready!"
