"The day after tomorrow, two days later, at nightfall, to be exact. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Liu Yuying confirmed the date and time on the dial of the system, and said solemnly, "We still have about two and a half days to prepare." ”

Arthur stared directly at the short-haired Oriental girl with a beautiful face in front of him for more than ten seconds, and then suddenly grinned, and after the laughter, he suddenly raised his voice and smashed the lighter in his hand into the waterhole in front of Liu Yuying: "What do you think of us?" On-call extras? ”

"Mr. Arthur, you know, we don't joke when it comes to work." Brushing off the dirty water splashed on her forehead casually, Liu Yuying still held her head high and replied without flinching, "The time is a bit rushed, but as a former professional soldier, I believe you should be able to better understand the value of the fighter - instead of wasting time arguing here, it is better to calm down and think about how to adjust the forces and attack Caesar's new position." ”

"Adjust the troops? Do you think we have enough to spare? Arthur no longer cared about the gentlemanly demeanor that he should always maintain as an Englishman, but he was like an old dog with a whip, with his hands behind his back, hunched over and pacing back and forth around the command post, and roared, "In the first round of the battle for the sentry fort, because the intelligence information you provided was inaccurate, we didn't get a single sentry fort, and there were 7 heavy casualties; We did not participate in the second Pompeii offensive and defensive battle, but the Pompeii side you supported not only failed to succeed in the ambush, but went to the fate of destruction; Last night you promised me to be the final winner of the 5th Closed Beta...... But now, is the victory you promised to be the embarrassing situation you are in? ”

"We will deliver the victory we promised. Rather, Mr. Arthur, do you think you have any other choice? Liu Yuying ignored Arthur's anger, still straightened her waist and replied in a steady tone. This reply brought Arthur back to his composure—indeed, there was not much choice for him at this point. "Cleopatra" represents not only the elusive women outside the battlefield, but the will of the black sheep to manipulate the puppet strings behind them, representing the interests and trade-offs of the black sheep. Thinking of this, Arthur, who had just been furious, instantly took a step back, forced himself to restrain his anger, and rethought how to deal with the situation in front of him.

As a "veteran" who participated in the previous closed beta and has served for Black Sheep for more than a year, Arthur was able to rely on his own keen perception of Black Sheep's intention to hold the fifth closed beta test - this seemingly nonsensical battle of internal friction is actually a testing ground for Black Sheep to reorganize the previous selection model and further select elite teams. Although Arthur, as one of the contract-guaranteed mercenary captains, was treated fairly well in the company, he was always cautious and reserved, but he could also vaguely sense that some of the company's top brass still took a wait-and-see attitude towards them: they were still pawns that could be discarded at any time, unless they were able to show something different from other pawns in the right arena.

At this point, Arthur was actually extremely jealous of Lu Pingchuan and Jiang Lan in Caesar's camp - before they entered the fifth closed beta, he had heard about the deeds of these two: one was personally guided by the old Captain Victor, and the other was selected as a "special recruitment" for two consecutive terms. This situation was extremely rare in the previous three closed betas, and Arthur could feel the reason for this difference - not only the bosses' special love for the "mysterious Oriental warriors", but even more terrifying, in this closed beta, these two young orientals really showed outrageous tactical level and development potential.

Arthur knew that if it continued like this, then sooner or later, he would fall into the same miserable situation as the worthless "human feed" in the "feed field", so in this year's internal test competition, he has changed the previous command style of "not seeking merit, but seeking no fault", and has shown a more active initiative from the beginning of the battle for position. For the cooperation that Pompeii and Cleopatra need, he also did his best, always playing the role of an "obedient" pawn...... But when the earth-shattering fire in Pompeii's rear was ignited, he felt despair and jealousy again—those people, those special "pawns" who were circled, they may not be so obedient, but nothing can deny or hide their strength.

So, after hearing the news of the "fall of Pompeii", Arthur became more and more concerned about his own performance and the appearance of the team, and became more and more in contact with "Cleopatra" - he desperately needed to get the orders and goals given to him by the Black Sheep from the mouths of these women, and he also urgently needed a complete victory to show his worth. And when these goals could not be successfully achieved, the great mental pressure had already formed his own "sword of Damocles", which had been hanging over his heart since the day of Crassus's fire.

“…… Tell your person and I'll continue to fulfill the promise. After a series of complex and in-depth psychological struggles, Arthur relented again and bowed his head to Liu Yuying, "Please give me some specific plans, how should we cooperate with the implementation at that time?" ”

"The detailed battle plan is in the USB flash drive file I gave you just now." Liu Yuying's expression still looked so calm, but an imperceptible smile quickly crossed the corner of her eye, "Please contact us after reviewing the documents to discuss the action, I am just an acting commander, and I still have to obey your orders regarding the operational command." ”

And at this moment, on the other side of the rainforest, Lu Pingchuan, who had been in a coma for more than ten hours, finally woke up in his new position.
