"Swallow, pack up, we may have to go to Longmen later."

"——Be prepared for battle. This time, just treat it as a test mission for you."

"I'm glad you've figured it out." Chen Qi smiled when he saw this. He was quite pleased to see Jessica made such a decision.

What he was most worried about was that Jessica couldn't get over that knot in her heart, but now it seems...she has indeed seen through many things.

"——Not only for myself, but also for Rhodes Island. We all need members like them."

"It's just right. If I were here, many things wouldn't happen again."

Jessica paused for a moment, as if she was questioning what she had just said, but soon she changed her words:

"I don't accept just anyone. If the current 'me' doesn't satisfy me, I won't be so kind."

"It all depends on her own awareness."

Chapter 78: Jessica's Purpose and the Contest with Black Steel International

At the same time, with Longmen's Black Steel International Division...

"This mission went very smoothly!"

In the dormitory of the Black Steel International branch, at this time, Franka, Razer and Jessica were summarizing the work after a mission.

"Cathead, your bullet support is getting more and more timely. I feel like I can't keep up with your speed now."

"Thank you for the compliment...Senior Franka..."

However, Franka's generous praise made Cat Head a little nervous. She was seen playing with her fingers with a shy look on her face, and said in a weak tone:

"I still need to grow more... My goal... is still far from being achieved."

"…Cathead, although it may sound a bit weird to say this, isn't your goal set too far?"

As the people who usually acted with Jessica, Franka and Razer rolled their eyes when they heard what Jessica said. They had heard this sentence so many times that their ears were almost callused.

They knew that Jessica's target was the "Miss Jessica" of Rhodes Island, and her goal was to become a mercenary as outstanding, ruthless, and efficient as Miss Jessica.

Jessica is timid, cowardly but kind-hearted by nature. She came to Black Steel International in order to change her current situation, abandoning her identity as a young lady and becoming an ordinary mercenary to hone herself.

It turns out that Jessica is very talented, but this mentality... is still not enough.

Although she had completed so many tasks and could achieve her goals excellently, once Jessica acted alone, she would become extremely timid, lacking confidence and decisiveness. As a result, Jessica, who originally had good strength, could not even display 30% of her strength when acting alone.

This is why Jessica was assigned to a combination like Franka and Razer. Not only because the combination of Razer and Franka works perfectly together, but also because such a partnership can better cultivate Jessica's character.

"Cathead, I think we shouldn't set our sights so high at the beginning. Let's set a small goal first, such as becoming the number one sniper operator in the Black Steel International Branch!"

"Then, we will work harder and become the number one in the headquarters. Then, we will go find Miss Black. If we defeat Miss Black, we will be able to reach Miss Jessica!"

As a senior who had climbed up step by step in this way, Franka was very keen to share her struggle experience with Jessica. However, the first sentence she said made Maomaotou tremble with fear.

First in the division... doesn't that mean she has to surpass her predecessors?

And she is ranked first in the headquarters... Can she really do this?

"Don't say that, Franka."

At the side, Razer, who was working on a mission summary report and planning to submit it to the headquarters, said calmly as he wrote:

"Jessica finally has a goal to strive for. Don't undermine her self-confidence here."

"But, Jessica, Franca is right about one thing. You have to be prepared to achieve small goals one by one, one step at a time, so that you can stand firm."

"Yes, it is……"

Maomaotou attached great importance to the teachings of his predecessors and immediately took out the small notebook he carried with him and wrote them down.

She knew that she still had a long way to go and many goals to achieve before she would be qualified to stand in front of that heroic lady!

"Da da da."

"Hmm? Please come in."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the dormitory door. The three people who were still talking were all stunned. Razer put down the pen in his hand and asked the member of Black Steel International at the door:

"What happened?"

"Two people came from Rhodes Island and said they want to see you." The member of Black Steel International said to the three women:

"Actually, there was a girl who said she was 'Miss No. 2' and said she knew you guys."

"Miss No. 2?"

This familiar name made Razer and the others move slightly. After looking at each other for a while, the three of them nodded.

"We'll go there now."

……

Half an hour later, in the reception room, Jessica, who had half of her face hidden with a hood, was smoking silently. Beside her, Graythroat was standing there indifferently, holding his new sniper rifle.

Graythroat actually doesn't like the smell of cigarettes, nor does he like people who smoke. As a sniper, Graythroat knows that smoking can cause many effects. For example, the smell of cigarettes on his body may expose his position.

However, Jessica seemed to be oblivious to this. Gray Throat had also seen his teacher smoking nonchalantly sometimes and had wanted to remind her several times but never said it out loud.

The teacher is so amazing... She must be able to consider the things I consider, right? - Graythroat thought so.

But why did the teacher hide her face? She is obviously very beautiful.

And...why did the teacher tell me not to make any noise no matter what I discovered?

Graythroat had many questions in her mind, but Jessica had always taught her to "watch more and ask less". She was not particularly keen on seeking advice, but rather preferred to delve into research, so she did not ask.

At this moment, the door of the reception room was finally knocked, and the two women looked over at the same time.

"Click."

The door opened, and then three beauties of completely different races, each with their own beauty, slowly entered the reception room.

"Long time no see, everyone from Rhode Island, and Miss Jessica."

"...Yeah, long time no see."

And Jessica nodded, and a hoarse voice slowly came. She found that her teacher's voice had changed a little, and her gray throat moved slightly, but she didn't say much.

On the other side, after seeing Jessica's arrival, the cat-head's eyes brightened a little, but after seeing Graythroat on the side, his face stiffened slightly, and then suddenly deflated again.

Graythroat seemed to have noticed Jessica's gaze, his pupils suddenly froze, and he subconsciously tightened the gun in his hand.

What was happening before his eyes suddenly impacted Gray Throat's brain, but soon, a glimmer of understanding flashed in Gray Throat's eyes.

However, Graythroat's look was not noticed by others. Razer looked at Jessica in front of him and smiled friendly, saying lightly:

"Ms. Jessica, may I ask what brings you to Black Steel International this time?"

"Is there a mission for us? If it's a collaboration, we can set off at any time."

"——It's not a mission, but I do have something to ask of you."

Jessica said lightly, and then made way for them to see Graythroat clearly.

"This person, codenamed Graythroat, is a worthless student I accepted at Rhodes Island."

"Her training has reached a bottleneck. This time, I came here hoping that the people from Black Steel International can help hone her."

"By the way, I'm here to discuss the cooperation between Black Steel International and Rhodes Island with you guys."

Jessica's voice was light and calm, but when Jessica said this, everyone subconsciously frowned and smelled a strange smell of gunpowder.

It wasn't the smell of gunpowder from a real battle, but... a smell of gunpowder that was inevitable and had to be fought in order to prove oneself...

Chapter 79: Graymaw is a natural taunt unit (

"People from Rhodes Island...what do you mean?"

At this time, in the meeting room of Longmen's Black Steel International Branch, the senior executives of this branch gathered here at this moment, looking at the cooperation documents sent from Jessica and passed to them through Razer, and raised such questions.

"...Cooperation is nothing new. We at Black Steel International are indeed keen on cooperating with Terra's international forces. The higher-ups have also told us that it would be beneficial for us to cooperate with companies like Rhodes Island that are keen on curing Originium disease as much as possible."

"…The question is, what exactly does this competition mean for that person from Rhodes Island named Jessica?"

Cooperation is a common thing for Black Steel International. Rhodes Island is also very important now. After all, it defeated the giant Ursus Legion. Black Steel International in Longmen must know this news.

If we say that before, Rhodes Island was not only at a disadvantage in the negotiations with Lungmen due to its own strength, but even Black Steel International, which is also an international force, looked down on them, then, since the Reunion Movement was defeated and even the Ursus Legion was routed, the entire Terra and all forces' views on Rhodes Island have undergone earth-shaking changes.

This is not just a manufacturing company, it is a deeply hidden force that may very well cause Terra to be shaken three times - almost everyone thinks so.

Facing the Ursus Legion, not to mention the international forces, even many countries would be defeated. However, a manufacturing company like Rhodes Island was able to defeat the Ursus Legion with the help of the Reunion Movement and Lungmen. The strength of such a force... is enough to attract everyone's attention.

People would not think that this group of ragtag groups of the Reunion Movement would have such strength, and most people in Lungmen's defense force knew that they could not withstand the Ursus army at all.

Therefore, Rhodes Island, which had been keeping a low profile all this time, became the biggest change in everyone's eyes in this battle.

No one dared to underestimate Rhodes Island now. How could a force that could directly influence a war that was decided without any suspense and tip the balance of war be just a simple pharmaceutical company?

"Maybe, he is trying to intimidate us."

Finally, in the meeting room of Black Steel International, Razer, who was also a cadre in the Longmen branch, finally spoke up with speculation:

"I have to say that Miss Jessica is extremely powerful. It is no exaggeration to say that if she goes all out, I think it is not impossible for her to assassinate someone from our branch."

"But Rhodes Island sent her to negotiate. I think on the one hand, it's because Miss Jessica and we have fought side by side before, and on the other hand, it's to test us."

"——Testing whether we have the strength to cooperate with Rhodes Island."

Cooperation is based on an equal relationship. Otherwise, even if the deal is concluded, the most likely outcome is an unequal treaty. Neither Rhodes Island nor Black Steel International wants this. Therefore, both sides must strive to be the stronger party in the negotiations.

Rhodes Island’s strength…is unclear, but Black Steel International is quite clear about it. After all, it is an international security company, and much of their combat capabilities are public.

In the current situation... Black Steel International does not have any advantage, but they cannot just show weakness.

"Since we want to compete... let's compete."

A senior executive of Black Steel International, who looked quite old, had a kind face, but his powerful voice carried a hint of indifference.

"Anyway, whether we win or lose, we should still cooperate, and our final result will be the same."

"…The old man is right."

Obviously, the old man's status was not low. Although he sat near the end of the meeting room, no one dared to underestimate his presence and nodded one after another.

"...Then, Razer, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Remember, be careful not to embarrass Black Steel International."

"...I'll try my best." After being silent for a while, Razer still agreed. However, she was not sure how much confidence she had in her heart.

That was Miss Jessica... Miss Jessica who was always elusive and hard to guard against...

Although she is just that lady's student, since Miss Jessica has taken a fancy to her, that girl must have her strengths and must be difficult to deal with.

But fortunately, they are just students... If Miss Jessica goes up by herself, it is not that Razer has no confidence, but all of them may not be enough to kill the opponent.

Should I say, it’s great that we’re not enemies?

……

However, when Razer arrived at the venue, he discovered an unusual scene.

The operators wearing the uniforms of Black Steel International were gathered together at this moment, making constant noise and noise.

When seeing this scene, Razer's heart suddenly skipped a beat and he felt that something was wrong.

They just finished the meeting and it's already started here?

"——Hey! Shorty! Come here!"

However, Franka, who was watching on the other side, noticed Razer's figure and immediately raised her hand high, signaling her to come over quickly.

The anxious Razer walked up without saying anything, grabbed Franka and asked, "What's going on here now?!"

"The situation is not optimistic!" Franka also looked a bit troubled and said to Razer:

"I don't know who started it, but now the competition has begun. Our people are competing with the little girl named Graythroat that Miss Jessica brought with her."

"What are we competing for now?" Razer asked Franka as he pushed through the crowd to get in and find out what was going on.

"——Disassemble and assemble the guns!"
