When you're in the Wolf Pack, your ability to obey orders becomes stronger.

Chapter 7: Seizing Troops!

At the entrance of the barracks, a long line of Luo Shan had already arrived, rolling up his sleeves.

The officer who came back to receive the new recruits this time was the third platoon leader. He will definitely let the third platoon members choose first. He came to help.

Du Hu re-tie the gong and drum to his waist, and with his belly protruding, he called Kaiyoumu and Xu Ge aside to begin his explanation.

"I just heard from the platoon leader that there are quite a few new recruits coming back this time, with an average of about five per squad. After the new recruits get off the truck, the three of us will split up and grab any that meet the requirements!"

"Squad leader, what are our requirements?" Xu Ge immediately asked in a low voice.

"We're the first platoon of the first company of new recruits, which is the face of the entire recruit training camp, so our image has to be presentable!"

Du Hu pointed at Kaiyoumu and Xu Ge, "At least we can't be too much worse than the two of you. As for the rest, you can figure it out yourselves."

Xu Ge nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

Du Hu was still a little worried, and continued to look at Xu Ge, instructing him: "Be bold when you snatch people. Don't listen to what those veterans say, just grab them and leave, understand?"

"understand!"

"Squad leader, don't worry, Xu Ge is very bold!" Kaiyoumu said from the side.

He came by train with Xu Ge and knew that this new recruit was obviously more clever and daring than the others, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of bringing him to Du Hu's squad.

"That's good. Once the person gets off the bus, start grabbing them. Once you've got them, take them straight back to your classroom. Remember to help them with their luggage!"

"Yes!"

Beep!
The whistle sounded.

"The majestic drum and gong team, hurry up and line up! They'll be here soon!"

Following Luo Shan's command, all the new recruit squad leaders immediately lined up neatly on both sides of the gate, raising their drumsticks and cymbals.

At the camp gate, there is a cement road that leads directly to a low hill in the distance.

Xu Ge looked up and saw that the convoy of five military trucks had reached the foot of the mountain and was heading this way.

Boom boom clang! Boom boom clang!
Amidst the sound of gongs and drums, the convoy stopped one by one in the open space. Several officers in charge of the troops got out of the vehicles first and began to arrange for the new recruits to assemble and line up.

Luo Shan began to slowly and stealthily move forward, wanting to get closer and see if there were any promising talents.

brush!
A figure suddenly swept past him and rushed directly towards the recruit team dozens of meters away.

Holy crap! Who is it?

Luo Shan was startled. Who was this guy who dared to disobey orders and rush over to snatch people ahead of time?
No, this guy doesn't have a military rank; he's a new recruit!
"Xu Ge! What are you doing, you brat..."

brush!
Before Luo Shan could finish speaking, another figure darted past; it was Kaiyoumu.

Kaiyu knew the procedure; he had to wait for the troop-receiving officer on the other side to give the order before he could go over. However, after discovering that Xu Ge had acted ahead of schedule, he had no choice but to follow immediately.

But his movement instantly led the people behind him astray.

The next moment, amidst a clatter of clanging and banging, the squad leaders who were still banging drums and gongs couldn't stand it any longer when they saw someone breaking the rules, and they all rushed over.

"Damn it, what are we waiting for?!"

"Come on!"

And so, a large group of people, not even bothering to remove the gongs and drums from their waists, began to run wildly with their bellies sticking out.

. . .

. . .

Xu Ge, a fresh-faced new recruit, didn't know any rules. He only knew that his squad leader had said to start robbing the new recruits as soon as they got off the vehicle.

But when they ran out, it seemed like no one else moved?
It sounds like someone is calling my name.

Xu Ge glanced back as he ran and saw a cloud of yellow dust rising behind him, indicating that a large group of people had caught up with him.

It seems everyone is rushing to buy things at this time.

Relieved, Xu Ge continued sprinting towards the convoy, while still thinking about the instructions his squad leader had given him.

We need soldiers with good looks!

Hey, there's a new recruit in the middle of the first row with rosy lips, white teeth, and fair skin. He's not short either. You're the one!

The footsteps behind them were chaotic and hurried; even with gongs and drums strapped to their bodies, these veterans ran just as fast.

Without thinking twice, Xu Ge charged straight at the recruit. Before the recruit could react, he grabbed his luggage with one hand and pulled him by the other, then turned and ran. Soon after, the others arrived, shouts and the sound of drums and cymbals filling the air, creating utter chaos.

With dust swirling around them, Xu Ge couldn't tell who was who at all. He spotted a direction, exerted his strength, and squeezed the new recruit out of the crowd.

"Damn it! Where's my messenger?"

"Li Dongshui!"

There were faint shouts coming from behind.

The new recruit, being pulled along by Xu Ge, instinctively turned around: "Hey, I'm here..."

"Do not talk!"

Xu Ge quickly shouted, grabbed the other person, and ran into the barracks gate, heading straight for the dormitory.

The convoy area was too chaotic, and he didn't see Du Hu and Kaiyoumu at all, so he decided to take them back to the classroom first.

Halfway through the run, Xu Ge, who was still holding Li Dongshui's wrist, felt resistance behind him. He turned around and saw that the recruit was holding his luggage with his other hand and was bending over, panting heavily.

"Who...who are you?"

Li Dongshui tried to break free from Xu Ge, but found that the other party was holding her very tightly. "Let go, what are you doing?"

"Just come with me, you've been assigned to our class!"

Seeing that the other person was still trying to grab the luggage from his hands, Xu Ge immediately gathered his strength and shouted, "Attention!"

He had learned his commands from Luo Shan, and they came out quite well.

Li Dongshui had already felt that the person pulling him, although not a military rank, acted like a veteran and was unsure of his identity. Now, when the command was shouted, he subconsciously let go and stood at attention.

The token appeared before Xu Ge's eyes and flipped automatically.

[Military orders are 100% executed. You may randomly acquire one of the opponent's skills. Do you wish to draw it immediately?]

Xu Ge was delighted. He had only wanted the other party to let go, but he hadn't expected such an unexpected surprise.

"Extract!"

[New skill randomly selected - Throwing, maximum level is Special, activate skill slot?]

Top grade?!
Xu Ge was somewhat surprised. According to his memory, the intermediate level was above the advanced level, and the special level was above the advanced level. This pretty boy was hiding his true abilities.

But what does "throwing" mean? Does it mean throwing something? By the way, I'm pretty good at shooting hoops.

Never mind that for now, it's a top-tier skill after all, let's unlock it first!
Instantly, the grid next to the cooking skill was lit up.

Throwing: Beginner (1/5)

Seeing that Li Dongshui was still standing there without moving, Xu Ge waved his hand while carrying Li Dongshui's luggage bag: "Come with me to the classroom to put your luggage away. The class monitor will be back soon."

Back in the dormitory, Xu Ge first threw Li Dongshui's luggage onto the lower bunk next to him: "There's an advantage to coming first; you can choose the lower bunk."

"Thank you!" Li Dongshui took a can of sparkling water out of her bag and handed it to Xu Ge.

Xu Ge didn't stand on ceremony, opened the bottle and took a swig, then casually asked, "Who was calling you outside just now?"

“Platoon Leader Li Zhi told me on the train that I should come here to be his communications officer.”

Li Dongshui looked around and found there was no place to wash her hands. She took out a pack of wet wipes from her bag and carefully wiped her hands and face. Seeing that Xu Ge was covered in sweat, she handed him the wet wipes.

Xu Ge shook his head to indicate that he didn't need it, then wiped his face with his sleeve, thinking to himself that this kid was living a pretty refined life.

"Are you a veteran?" Li Dongshui asked tentatively.

"No, I just arrived recently," Xu Ge replied truthfully.

Li Dongshui was stunned for a moment: "Then why did you say I was assigned to Class One..."

Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door.

The two turned their heads and saw a sergeant standing at the door.

"Does either of you have a name like Li Dongshui?" the sergeant asked directly.

Li Dongshui subconsciously stood up to answer, but Xu Ge spoke first: "No!"

Li Dongshui, standing behind Xu Ge, opened her mouth but ultimately remained silent.
