Holding the original shares, they fought all the way to the Korean War!

Zhou Tianyang's gaze darkened slightly.

He mentally considered several possible scenarios.

If those worst-case scenarios happen.

Basic combat proficiency allows him to defeat one Japanese soldier, but what if he faces two at the same time?

Three?

Even more?

Intermediate Fighting Mastery requires 800 points, while Advanced Fighting Mastery requires 2,000 points.

The coverage area is the entire fighting system of a person.

From one-to-one to one-to-many, there are corresponding techniques for each situation.

But once his gaze lingered on the Advanced Combat Mastery section, it didn't move.

It's not that advanced combat proficiency isn't good enough; it's that its coverage is too broad.

He doesn't need to upgrade himself right now.

What he needs is for his soldiers to be able to hold their ground in critical moments.

Those soldiers were different from him.

During this trip to Shanghai, he needed to ensure that all thirty people had sufficient means to protect themselves.

Once the gunshots ring out, once identities are exposed, once forced into close combat.

Everyone must be able to fight, kill, and escape alive.

Zhou Tianyang's gaze lingered on the points section for a moment.

He planned to exchange the top-tier fighting skills for each warrior individually.

One card, one person.

The highest-level combat skill inheritance card in the entire system.

The card costs 100 points each, which doesn't sound expensive.

However, it can only affect one person, and the content it transmits is extremely rich.

He had read the detailed description of the card in the online store.

The text in that column wasn't long, but every sentence left a deep impression on him.

"Advanced Fighting Skill Inheritance Card, suitable for single player."

The content of the inheritance includes, but is not limited to:

Hand-to-hand combat (including a complete system of joint locks, chokeholds, and striking techniques), knife fighting, close-quarters disarming techniques, and one-on-many combat strategies.

"This inherited combat system integrates the essence of close combat techniques of special forces from many countries in later generations, and has an unparalleled suppressive power in the context of close combat with cold weapons."

"After using this card, the recipient will possess combat abilities equivalent to those of a future special forces king."

When Zhou Tianyang saw those words, his heart beat a little faster.

Combat skills at the level of a special forces elite.

In later military systems.

Being a top special forces soldier means being able to face multiple armed enemies simultaneously without any weapons and not be at a disadvantage.

This means that a fatal blow can be delivered in a very short time at any close range.

This means that when a cold weapon is in hand, one is almost invincible.

Thirty people, each of whom will possess this level of fighting ability.

Zhou Tianyang did not hesitate any longer.

He quickly did the calculations in his mind.

Thirty cards, each worth one hundred points, for a total of three thousand points.

His current points balance is 29,197.

After deducting 3,000 points, you have 26,197 points left.

Regarding this operation...

This investment is absolutely worthwhile.

"System, exchange for thirty advanced combat skill inheritance cards."

[Confirmed redemption of 30 Advanced Fighting Skill Inheritance Cards, consuming 3000 points.]

[Confirm?]

"confirm."

[Redeem successful.]

[Host's current remaining points: 26197.]

[30 Advanced Fighting Skill Inheritance Cards have been issued to your system space.]

Zhou Tianyang's gaze lingered on the notification that the exchange had been successful.

He stood up and walked to the window.

She stood there for a while, then turned around, walked back to the bed, and lay down.

He needs to rest because he has to travel early tomorrow morning.

He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

.........

The next morning.

Zhou Tianyang woke up while it was still light.

He sat up, got dressed, and went outside.

In the courtyard of the regimental headquarters.

The thirty guards had already lined up.

Ma Yong stood at the front of the group, doing a final check on everyone's equipment.

Upon seeing Zhou Tianyang walk in, he stood at attention and saluted.

"Commander, everyone's here."

Zhou Tianyang nodded, his gaze sweeping over each of the thirty faces.

The road ahead is different from the battles we've fought before.

Previously, we fought on familiar territory, knowing which way the mountains turned and which way the gullies led.

This time, we're going to a completely unfamiliar place and facing a completely unfamiliar enemy.

All he could do was to ensure that everyone had as many survival skills as possible.

Comrades.

Zhou Tianyang spoke, but his voice was not loud.

But every word is very clear.

"Before we set off today, I have something to tell you."

All thirty people straightened their backs, waiting for him to continue.

"As you all know, we may encounter various situations on this trip to Shanghai."

"The worst-case scenario is that we get entangled in close combat with the enemy and have to resort to hand-to-hand combat."

"I don't want any of you to be in that situation."

"But if we really do encounter that, I hope every one of you can fight your way out alive."

The courtyard was quiet; no one was speaking.

But everyone's attention was focused on Zhou Tianyang.

Zhou Tianyang didn't say anything more.

He meditated in his heart.

"System, use Advanced Combat Skill Inheritance Cards on these thirty warriors in front of you."

[Confirmed to have used 30 Advanced Fighting Skill Inheritance Cards on 30 targets.]

[Confirm?]

"confirm."

[Advanced Fighting Skill Inheritance Card has been used on Ma Yong.]

[The Advanced Fighting Skill Inheritance Card has been used on Liu Dazhu.]

【…】

The system's notification sounds kept ringing in his mind.

Each time, it accurately matched one of the thirty people in front of it.

Zhou Tianyang stood there, looking at the soldiers.

Their posture remained unchanged, and their expressions showed no abnormality.

But he knew that in those unseen places, earth-shattering changes were taking place.

That change won't be immediately apparent.

It will only be triggered when we actually take action.

The moment the dagger is held in hand, the moment the fist strikes the enemy.

The moment when the body instinctively makes its most lethal reaction.

They themselves would be surprised by that change.

About ten seconds later.

The system notification sounds stopped.

[Advanced Fighting Skill Inheritance Cards x30, all used.]

The goal has been fully achieved and passed on.

Zhou Tianyang let out a long sigh of relief.

He looked at the thirty people in front of him, at their still upright figures.

Looking at their weathered faces, etched with the marks of years spent in war.

Then he spoke, his voice steady.

"Alright, let's get ready to go."

The thirty people responded immediately, turned around, lined up, and walked out of the courtyard.

At the village entrance, Brigade Commander Chen and Liu Ping were already waiting.

Brigade Commander Chen stood by the roadside without saying much.

He simply walked up to Zhou Tianyang and extended his hand.

Zhou Tianyang grasped his hand and shook it vigorously.

"Brigade Commander, we're leaving."

Brigade Commander Chen nodded.

"Be careful on the road."

Zhou Tianyang released his grip and turned to walk towards the group.

Liu Ping nodded to him, and the two exchanged a glance.

Thirty-two people walked along the mountain path in a southeast direction.
