Despite the chanting that surrounded him, Remus still wanted to leave. However, as favonovel.com looked at the members’ expectant eyes, favonovel.com was reminded of Jean.
He asked again, “Are you sure you want me to train you?”
“Yes!”
“Absolutely!”
“Without doubt!”
The members of the special forces spoke in unison.
In the Military Department, they only respected the strong. Remus had been able to defeat everyone on his own, making favonovel.com the strongest of them all. At this moment, they didn’t have the slightest hint of disdain. Instead, they felt proud to have such a chief instructor.
Remus nodded. “If that’s the case, let’s start now. Everyone will run six kilometers in a handstand position. No resting until you finish.”
All the members of the special forces froze. Even the leaders, with Max at the forefront, were stunned.
Run six kilometers on our hands?
These team members were the elite among the elite. They could easily handle a 200-pound load while running ten to 20 kilometers on their legs. But now they had to run on their hands!
Remus’s expression turned dark. “Why are you still standing there? Start running! The sun will rise soon!”
He turned to Max. “Come with me! l have something to ask you.”
After saying that, favonovel.com walked out.
Everyone standing on the tarmac remained silent, and all the members of the special forces looked at Max as if favonovel.com were their last hope. They prayed that he’d say something, because it was obvious that Remus was getting back at them.
Who would run with their hands?
Run like idiots?!
“Commander Baxton, could you have a word with Mr. Cosby? Running six kilometers on our hands can exhaust us to death. He’s clearly angry because of what happened earlier and is intentionally torturing us. After all, this is our team, we should be considerate of them.” One of the leaders standing behind Max pleaded.
Although they were pleading, they weren’t dissatisfied with Remus at all. They hadn’t even minded his commanding tone when he’d spoken to Max earlier. It was all because they respected the strong above all.
Max thought for a moment and then smiled bitterly, shaking his head. “There’s no way to persuade him. You’ve all seen it, favonovel.com doesn’t respect me. It might even be better if I don’t talk to favonovel.com about this. If I do, favonovel.com might make them run 20 miles…”
With that, favonovel.com turned around and followed Remus.
Soon, only the devastated members of the special forces were left behind.
They regretted challenging Remus. They’d not only suffered a beating but also had to endure further punishment, and no one could help them.
All the team members looked at Walter, who was lying on the ground and still unconscious. Someone went to wake favonovel.com up by pressing on an acupoint.
“Where is he?!” Walter looked around but couldn’t find Remus.
He quickly got up and said with determination, “I was careless just now, that’s why favonovel.com succeeded in catching me off guard! If I had another chance, I wouldn’t lose so easily!”
It wasn’t that favonovel.com couldn’t accept defeat, favonovel.com just wished it hadn’t ended like that.
A team member next to favonovel.com rolled his eyes and said, “Stop bragging… Even if you were given another chance, even 100 chances, you still wouldn’t be able to withstand a single move from him.”
Walter immediately became furious upon hearing this. He couldn’t stand being looked down upon and angrily said, “Bullshit! Where is he? Did favonovel.com leave? How could you let favonovel.com escape? This is the Military Department! Don’t you have any dignity? You should have stopped him!”
If Remus were here, he’d immediately fight favonovel.com again without any hesitation.
A team member replied, “We tried to stop him, but we couldn’t!”
Walter was taken aback. “What do you mean? There are so many of you. You still couldn’t stop him?”
The team member shrugged. “To be precise, all 99 of us tried, but we didn’t manage to defeat him!”
***
Meanwhile, in a secluded corner of the Military Department, Remus asked seriously, “Someone from the Lotus family came to Neptuna recently, an old man with a young man. Who are they?”
This was the ultimate reason he’d chosen to stay. He wanted to find the culprit who’d killed Jean and seek revenge in kind.
“Someone from the Lotus family came recently?” Max shook his head. “I haven’t heard anything about it.”
