Chapter 1675: Seemingly Older Soldier
A few days later, a burly, stern-looking foreign man appeared in front of Zhou Shi and Zhou Min. He was Javier, the legendary underground soldier king.
"Are you Javier?" Zhou Shi looked up and down at the man in front of him, secretly amazed. Javier's momentum was indeed extraordinary. Standing there was like an insurmountable mountain, which made people feel afraid.
"It's me." Javier's voice was deep and powerful, as if every word contained infinite power. "You are the employer who invited me here? Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"It's very simple." Zhou Min sneered and pointed to Qin Yuan who was walking with Zhou Meir not far away. "Did you see that boy? It's him. I want you to teach him a lesson and let him know that there are some people he can't afford to offend."
Javier glanced at Qin Yuan and raised a disdainful sneer at the corner of his mouth: "It's him? No problem, such a small matter is easy for me."
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." Zhou Shi and Zhou Min looked at each other, and a trace of fierceness flashed in their eyes, "Wait for your good news!"
As night fell, Qin Yuan and Zhou Meir strolled on the dimly lit path, enjoying this rare tranquility. However, they didn't know that a crisis was quietly approaching.
Suddenly, a black shadow rushed out from the darkness, like a ghost, and instantly came to Qin Yuan. It was Javier, his eyes were cold, and his body exuded murderous intent.
"Are you Qin Yuan?" Javier asked coldly, as if he was examining a dead person.
Qin Yuan was stunned, then reacted and quickly became alert: "I am Qin Yuan, who are you? Why did you come to me?"
"Who I am is not important." Javier sneered, "What's important is that someone paid me to teach you a lesson."
After that, Javier suddenly attacked and punched Qin Yuan in the chest. He used enough force to knock a cow away. However, Qin Yuan was not scared by him. He dodged quickly and grabbed Javier's wrist at the same time.
"I have no grudges against you, why did you attack me?" Qin Yuan's tone was cold, and his eyes flashed with anger.
"No grudges?" Javier sneered, "In this world, some things do not need reasons. Just like now, I just need to complete my task, that's all."
After that, Javier attacked again. This time, he used a more fierce offensive, trying to defeat Qin Yuan in one fell swoop. However, Qin Yuan was not so easy to deal with. He was agile and responsive, and he could dodge Javier's attacks skillfully every time.
The two fought fiercely in the night, punching and kicking each other, and each move was fatal. Zhou Meir was terrified watching from the side. She wanted to help, but was afraid of accidentally hurting Qin Yuan. She could only stand aside anxiously, praying that Qin Yuan would be safe.
The battle lasted for more than ten minutes, and Javier finally began to feel overwhelmed. Although he had been through many battles, Qin Yuan's skills and reactions were beyond his expectations. Every attack was cleverly resolved by Qin Yuan, which made him feel very difficult.
Finally, in a mistake, Javier was caught by Qin Yuan. Qin Yuan punched him in the chest with a heavy punch, knocking him out. Javier fell to the ground, spitting blood, and was obviously seriously injured.
Qin Yuan looked at Javier coldly, with unquestionable majesty in his tone: "Tell me, who sent you?"
Javier struggled to stand up, but Qin Yuan stepped on his chest. He felt a sharp pain and almost suffocated.
"It's... Zhou Shi and Zhou Min..." Javier uttered a few words with difficulty, "They paid me... to teach you a lesson..."
Hearing the names of Zhou Shi and Zhou Min from Javier's mouth, Qin Yuan's face did not show the slightest surprise. He smiled indifferently, as if he had expected all this. He knew very well that behind this prosperous city, there were countless unknown undercurrents, and Zhou Shi and Zhou Min were just two clowns among them.
"Javier, go back and tell them," Qin Yuan's voice was calm and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a heavy weight, "This will not happen again. This time, I will spare them because they are Zhou Meir's uncle. But if there is a next time, I will never show mercy."
Javier was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Qin Yuan to let Zhou Shi and Zhou Min go so easily. After all, as far as he knew, Qin Yuan was not a tolerant and generous person. But on second thought, Javier understood Qin Yuan's intention. Perhaps, for Qin Yuan, Zhou Shi and Zhou Min were not worth mentioning at all, and he was too lazy to bother with them.
"Okay, I will tell them your words intact." Javier nodded, and his admiration for Qin Yuan increased a little more. He knew that he was able to get away with it this time, thanks to Qin Yuan's tolerance.
"However," Qin Yuan changed the subject, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, "You have to tell them that I, Qin Yuan, am no longer the Soldier King level. Now I am already the God of War! There are few people in this world who can beat me. If they still want to cause trouble, they'd better weigh their own weight first."
Hearing this, Javier was shocked. He knew the weight of the title of "God of War", which was a level higher than the King of War. In the entire underground world, there were only a handful of people who could be called God of War, and Qin Yuan had actually reached this level!
"I understand, Mr. Qin." Javier responded respectfully, "I will definitely tell Zhou Shi and Zhou Min your words word for word. I believe that after listening to them, they will definitely restrain their behavior."
After that, Javier turned and left, disappearing into the night. He knew that although his mission failed this time, it was worth it to be able to witness Qin Yuan's strength and style with his own eyes.
And Qin Yuan continued to stroll in the night with Zhou Meir. There was a faint smile on his face, as if nothing had happened just now. Zhou Meir looked at Qin Yuan, her heart full of gratitude and admiration. She knew that if Qin Yuan hadn't helped, she would have been harmed by those two bastards Zhou Shi and Zhou Min.
"Qin Yuan, thank you." Zhou Meir said softly, "You always show up at the critical moment to protect me from harm."
"Mei'er, you don't have to thank me." Qin Yuan smiled and responded, "It is my responsibility to protect you. No matter when and where, as long as you need me, I will be by your side."
After hearing Qin Yuan's words, Zhou Meir felt a warm current in her heart. She felt as if she was surrounded by a powerful force, which was the sense of security and reliance that Qin Yuan gave her. She knew that as long as Qin Yuan was there, she had nothing to fear.
The two continued to move forward, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth. However, they did not know that in the dark, a pair of eyes were staring at them closely. Those eyes were full of jealousy and hatred, as if they were going to devour them.
The owners of those eyes were Zhou Shi and Zhou Min. They hid in the dark, watching the backs of Qin Yuan and Zhou Meir going away, and their hearts were full of reluctance and anger. They did not expect that Javier, who they had hired at a high price, would be defeated so easily by Qin Yuan's hands. What made them even more unacceptable was that Qin Yuan had actually reached the realm of the God of War! "Brother, what should we do?" Zhou Shi asked with gritted teeth, "Should we just let it go?"
"Of course not!" Zhou Min responded viciously, "Qin Yuan, that kid, dared to be so arrogant! Does he think he is a god of war? I tell you, no one in this world is invincible! We must find a way to let him know how powerful we are!"
"But, what else can we do?" Zhou Shi asked helplessly, "Javier is not his opponent, who else can we find?"
"Humph, Javier can't do it, but it doesn't mean that others can't do it either." Zhou Min sneered, "There are countless masters hidden in this world. As long as we are willing to spend money, we will definitely find someone more powerful than Javier! At that time, I will see how arrogant Qin Yuan is!"
After speaking, Zhou Min turned and left, disappearing into the night. Zhou Shi followed closely behind, his heart full of hatred for Qin Yuan and the desire for revenge.
The moment Qin Yuan returned to the recruit company, the sun just happened to shine on the training ground, covering this land full of sweat and tenacity with a layer of golden glory. His steps were steady, and his eyes revealed an indescribable calmness and confidence, as if he had returned from a distant battlefield and brought back the glory of victory.
"Hey, isn't this our instructor Qin? What's up? You look better and better after returning from an outing!" Yue Ming, a recruit who usually likes to joke, immediately greeted him with a playful smile on his lips, "It seems that love can really nourish people!"
Qin Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this, and his eyes were like torches, shooting straight at Yue Ming. He knew that although this kid usually liked to joke, what he said today seemed to be a bit too much. Especially in this recruit company that pays attention to discipline and rules, any slight disturbance may affect the training status and mentality of the soldiers.
"Yue Ming, do you know what you are saying?" Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from his teeth, "As a soldier, what is your duty? It is training and self-improvement, not gossiping here and talking about the instructor's private affairs."
Yue Ming was stunned. He didn't expect Qin Yuan to take this issue so seriously. Although Qin Yuan is strict about training, he will joke with the soldiers in private, and the atmosphere is relatively relaxed. Today's sudden severity caught him off guard.
"Instructor, I... I was just joking, nothing else." Yue Ming tried to explain, but the words seemed a little pale and powerless.
"Joke?" Qin Yuan's eyes became sharper, "In the army, some jokes can't be made. Especially on the training ground, every word and every action may affect your comrades and the morale of the entire team. Do you understand?"
Yue Ming lowered his head, and a sense of guilt surged in his heart. He knew that he had indeed done something wrong this time. In this place where discipline is the main line, any frivolous words and deeds are not allowed.
"Instructor, I was wrong, I am willing to accept the punishment." Yue Ming's voice was small, but his tone was firm.
Qin Yuan looked at Yue Ming, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He knew that although this kid was a little naughty, he was not bad in nature. Moreover, in training, he has always worked hard and never slacked off. Today, perhaps he just spoke too quickly and didn't realize the seriousness of the consequences.
"Okay, since you admit your mistake, I'll give you a chance to correct it." Qin Yuan's voice softened a little, but his tone was still serious, "You go run ten laps with weights. Remember, this is not a punishment, but a reminder to you. I hope you can learn from it and don't make the same mistake again in the future."
Yue Ming felt relieved when he heard this. He knew that Qin Yuan was not really angry, but just hoped that he could recognize his mistakes and correct them. So he quickly packed his equipment, carried a heavy sandbag on his back, and started his weighted run.
As Yue Ming's footsteps gradually faded away, Qin Yuan's eyes became deeper. He knew that as an instructor, he was not only responsible for the training of the soldiers, but also for their ideological education. Only in this way can we cultivate soldiers who are truly disciplined, qualified, and responsible.
And this scene was also seen by other soldiers. They talked about it, some felt sorry for Yue Ming, and some expressed understanding of Qin Yuan's severity. After all, in the special place of the army, any small mistake may be magnified and even affect the combat effectiveness of the entire team.
"It seems that our instructor Qin is not in a good mood today." A recruit whispered.
"That's right, although he is strict at ordinary times, he will also joke with us. Today's atmosphere is indeed a bit wrong." Another recruit echoed.
"But then again, Yue Ming did go a little too far this time. There has to be a limit to joking, and you can't just say anything." A seemingly older soldier said.
The other soldiers nodded in agreement. They knew that in this army based on discipline, any frivolous words and deeds were not allowed. And Yue Ming obviously violated this bottom line this time.
As time went by, Yue Ming finally completed his weighted run. He returned to the training ground panting, his face pale, but his eyes revealed an indescribable firmness. He knew that he had done something wrong this time, and Qin Yuan's punishment was also a reminder and spur to himself.
"Instructor, I'm back." Yue Ming's voice was weak, but his tone was firm.
Qin Yuan looked at Yue Ming, and a sense of relief surged in his heart. He knew that this kid had realized his mistake and was willing to correct it. This was the result he wanted.
"Okay, you're back." Qin Yuan's voice softened a little, "Remember, don't make the same mistake again. In the army, discipline and rules are iron laws, and no one can violate them."
The next day.
Ye Cunxin, dressed in a neat camouflage uniform and military boots, stepped into the camp of the recruit company with sonorous steps.
Her arrival immediately attracted the attention of all the recruits. You know, in this male-dominated military environment, Ye Cunxin not only stood out with her outstanding military talents, but also became the goddess in the hearts of many recruits with her extraordinary temperament and beauty.
"Instructor Qin Yuan, are you there?" Ye Cunxin's voice was crisp and loud, penetrating the entire training ground and reaching Qin Yuan's ears.
Qin Yuan was standing in a corner of the training ground, supervising the training of the recruits. Hearing Ye Cunxin's voice, he was slightly stunned, then turned around and his eyes fell on her.
