Chapter 213 The Nanny-like Fool
Wu Heyi forcefully pulled Ah Dai to his side and solemnly announced:
"From now on, Ah-Dai is the supreme commander of both of our groups!"
Upon hearing this decision, Ah-Dai was completely stunned.
To be honest, Ah Dai had absolutely no idea what responsibilities and obligations the position of supreme commander entailed.
To make matters worse, he had never had any experience managing such a large number of people before.
Back then, he was just a minor vice-captain in his original squad, and he had to follow Archer's orders in everything.
Later, Wu Heyi appreciated Ah Dai's abilities and gave him a promotion opportunity, making him the captain.
Even so, he only led a team of five people, and usually just took them around to wander and explore.
But now the situation is very different. Wu Heyi is about to hand over all 200 people in front of him to Adai for unified management and dispatch!
Ah-Dai was dumbfounded on the spot, because these 200 people were four times the total population of their original tribe!
Faced with such a massive force, Ah Dai, who had never fought such a large battle before, was instantly stunned and stood there dumbfounded.
Fortunately, Wu Heyi did not give up. Instead, he patiently and meticulously spent nearly half an hour explaining the relevant matters to Adai.
After this in-depth exchange, Ah Dai finally understood Wu Heyi's calculations and plans.
However, something unexpected happened—just when Ah-Dai finally figured everything out, he suddenly changed his mind and said he no longer wanted to take over the 200 people.
The reason, simply put, was that he really didn't want to play the role of "nanny" for so many people, finding the job too tedious and tiring! But how could Wu Heyi let him go!
These 200 people have had many unfortunate fates.
Their originally planned future turned out to be that of pitiful guinea pigs in the hands of their leader, Xiaoqiang.
It was for this ulterior motive that the leader gave them the opportunity to awaken their martial spirits.
When these people first felt the mysterious and powerful force surging within their bodies—the Martial Soul—their hearts were filled with indescribable excitement and exhilaration.
They naively believed that from this moment on, they would finally be able to escape mediocrity and embark on the glorious path to becoming superior people.
However, harsh reality struck them like a hammer blow, shattering their beautiful illusions.
Despite possessing enviable martial spirits, their lives did not undergo any significant change.
On the contrary, they still have to struggle to survive as ordinary villagers.
On ordinary days, whether it is heavy farming or dangerous hunting, they are always on the front line, enduring tremendous pressure and hardship.
On the surface, they seem to have transformed into highly respected Soul Masters.
However, if you delve deeper, you'll find that the reality is far from so rosy.
To put it bluntly, they are nothing more than a group of human-shaped cattle and horses.
Because they have awakened their martial spirits, their physical strength and endurance are indeed far superior to those of ordinary livestock.
In their daily work, they don't even need to use farm tools; they can complete various tasks solely with the power of their own martial spirit.
Especially during hunts, relying on the abilities granted by their martial spirits, they all invariably charge ahead and face life-or-death tests.
However, when it came time to distribute food, they were always last in line, forced to watch others enjoy their meals first before they could even pick up the few remaining scraps.
This unfair treatment gradually extinguished the flame of hope in their hearts, replacing it with deep despair and helplessness.
This situation has continued to occur over time.
Gradually, the servility within them, like a long-dormant demon, was finally awakened and released.
At this time, their tribe's leader, Xiao Qiang, began to carefully match each person with a soul ring that suited their own characteristics, guiding them to become his guinea pigs on the road to becoming stronger.
However, these people are actually well aware of this cruel truth:
Obeying orders excessively and being manipulated by others will significantly shorten one's already limited lifespan.
But if anyone dares to disobey, they will inevitably suffer a brutal beating.
Therefore, they always lived in extreme turmoil and pain.
Nevertheless, driven by the most primal desire and persistent pursuit of survival, no one is willing to easily disguise themselves as a submissive and indecisive "good boy."
After all, no one wants to prematurely head towards death because of temporary compliance.
As a result, the level of their soul power has mostly stagnated, remaining at around level eight or nine, making it difficult to achieve any substantial breakthroughs.
For Ah-Dai, the most urgent and crucial task at hand was to find a way to quickly raise everyone's soul power level to level ten.
Only after achieving this goal can he lead the team out of this closed world, embark on a journey to find suitable soul rings, and gradually enhance the team's overall strength through a series of progressive methods.
Only in this way will Ah Dai finally have the opportunity to build a truly powerful team that belongs to him personally and is invincible!
Back when he led a small team of only five people, he had to rack his brains to figure out how to help them quickly improve their strength and plan suitable hunting targets—what type of soul beasts and what kind of soul rings they could obtain—in order to build an incomparably powerful six-person team.
However, even such a simple task almost exhausted all the wisdom and energy stored in his not-so-bright mind.
Now, facing such a huge number of 200 people, it's like a nightmare for him!
I felt as if I was being crushed by a heavy mountain, making it hard to breathe.
However, Wu Heyi's words were like an inviolable imperial edict to him, allowing no room for doubt or rebuttal.
Therefore, no matter how arduous or difficult the task may be, he must not only carry it out resolutely, but also strive to do it perfectly and deliver a satisfactory result.
After taking office, Ah-Dai did not hesitate to adopt the brilliant plan that Wu He-yi had taught him.
He swiftly divided the two large groups under his command into numerous smaller combat units of five people each, and carefully selected a capable and responsible captain for each team.
Next, he cleverly reorganized the teams into groups of ten, and appointed corresponding captains for each group.
In this way, Ah-Dai only needs to focus on managing and leading these four captains to easily control the overall situation and ensure that the entire team operates efficiently.
For the past week, Ah-Dai and his four captains have worked closely together and constantly honed their skills.
Now, these four captains all possess the formidable strength of level twenty-eight or twenty-nine, just one step away from the remarkable Soul Venerable realm, which is practically within reach.
When they first followed Ah Dai, these captains were filled with trepidation and unease.
However, after spending just one week together, they gradually let go of their many concerns.
Because they deeply felt that their current situation was hundreds of times better than before!
Here, they no longer face the constant threat of having their lives ruthlessly taken away. On the contrary, they not only gain a significant improvement in their own strength, but also win the respect and recognition of others.
Under the guidance and assistance of these four captains, the remaining hundred-plus team members gradually overcame their wariness.
With everyone working together and striving forward, each person's cultivation level successfully climbed to over twenty levels.
Such encouraging results greatly boosted the morale of the entire team, filling them with boundless anticipation for the future.
