Scholarly Shadow

Chapter 7 is all about following the formula.

How many new beginnings can a person have in their lifetime?

Of course, even with a fresh start, people may not cherish it; laziness...That's terrifying.

A completely new beginning doesn't necessarily change one's true nature.

As the saying goes, "It's easier to change a country than to change its landscape."It is difficult to change oneself, so it is quite difficult for a person to change themselves.

ChangeIt's an unprecedented challenge to myself.

"You're not the British national team?"

When Wang Fan discovered these peopleWhen they realized that the unit was not a regular army, they asked questions directly without any attempt to conceal their identities.

Wang Fan asked because the fighter jets were incredibly powerful, and the soldiers were not affiliated with any country; they were private armed forces.

This was something Wang Fan hadn't expected at all.This is absolutely true.

Wang Fan is a relativeHaving experienced these nonThe fighting prowess of the armed personnel was so impressive that their rescue of Wang Fan felt like watching a Hollywood blockbuster.Sleep.

Uncle Lyme, who treated Wang Fan quite well, chuckled and asked him, "Young man from China, what made you realize we are..."Is Fang's team here?

"We're mercenaries, don't you know that?"

When Uncle Lyme uttered the word "mercenary," Wang Fan nodded; he had certainly heard of that term before.

But if you want to see mercenaries in China, that's absolutely impossible.At most, you can only watch it on TV.

Seeing Wang Fan nod, Uncle Lime chuckled and said, "Hehe, so what did you ask?"

Uncle Lyme, of course, had no idea that Wang Fan was a complete novice, someone who knew nothing. Wang Fan said he knew, but only to the extent of knowing; he had no real understanding.

Wang Fan is now somewhat completely...Completely confused: "You guys, I thought... So what are you doing now?"

When Uncle Lyme heard Wang Fan ask this question, he immediately burst into laughter: "Haha, of course we're going back! What else could we be doing?"

When Uncle Lyme said that, Wang Fan panicked a little. What should he do if the other person wanted to go back?

"Then what about me?"

Wang Fan had no choice but to raise this question: what should he do?

Uncle Lyme chuckled and said, "Hehe, young man, don't worry, Your Highness."I'll take care of you for a while.

What Wang Fan feared most was that these mercenaries would abandon him, leaving him to fend for himself.

"Thanks."

Wang Fan could only say...Thanks. It seems that his life and death are still not in his own hands, and he has no idea where he will go.

Uncle Lyme glanced at Wang Fan's injuries and shouted to a mercenary who was resting with his eyes closed, "Kexdor, help him!"reasonTreat the wound.

This is what puzzled Wang Fan. He looked at the unruly man with suspicion.Kesto, who was carrying a medicine box, asked Uncle Lem, "Do you still have a doctor?"

Aren't you mercenaries?

Little did Wang Fan know that he didn't even realize what he had said wrong. The moment he asked the question, all the mercenaries in the cabin who had been resting with their eyes closed suddenly opened their eyes and stared intently at Wang Fan.

Wang Fan shuddered in fright. These people's eyes alone were so fierce, they seemed capable of killing.

Honestly, Wang Fan really didn't know what he had said wrong, or why these people were looking at him like that, as if they wanted to eat him alive.

Uncle Lyme in Wang FanHe patted Wang Fan on the shoulder and said, "Young man from China, please don't speak of mercenaries with a questioning tone. We are mercenaries, that's true, but we are risking our lives to make money, and there's nothing wrong with that."

Wang Fan didn't understand what Uncle Lyme was saying, and he was even more confused. What did he say wrong?

What Wang Fan didn't know was that the mercenary himself was very anti-When someone skeptically identifies themselves as a mercenary, it reflects a lack of trust in their abilities.

SeeRealizing something was amiss, Wang Fan quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I didn't know."

These guys stared at Wang Fan with a vicious look and said into the phone, "Ignorant Chinese."

Who would have thought that Wang Fan could understand Rui's phone call? If Wang Fan understood, why would he scold himself for being ignorant?

So Wang Fan simply spread his hands and asked Kristall in Swedish, "How am I ignorant?"

Kestel, who was cleaning Wang Fan's wounds, was genuinely taken aback: "You understand Swedish?"

This is obvious.Or is Wang Fan talking nonsense?

Uncle Lyme patted Wang Fan on the shoulder again, interrupting their conversation, and asked Wang Fan, "You don't seem to know what we do."

This is obvious.Well, if he had known, Wang Fan wouldn't have offended the entire mercenary team on the plane with just one sentence.

Wang Fan nodded and replied, "Yes, I don't know."

Back in school, Wang Fan could proudly say that he knew everything, but now it seems that Wang Fan was too naive, incredibly naive.

Faced with theseThe bloody messenger of death left Wang Fan with nothing but fear and ignorance.

Wang Fan really didn't know why, but every time he saw the way these people looked at him, he felt...Goosebumps rose on these people.It always seems to carry aThey exuded a murderous aura, as if the whole world was their enemy.

"The journey back will be boring, so let me tell you about our profession."

When Uncle Lyme said this, Wang Fan was puzzled. Was being a mercenary a profession?

Wang Fan genuinely knew nothing about it; he was even about to ask, "Is being a mercenary a profession?"

But upon seeing the murderous aura emanating from these people, he still shut his mouth.Alright.

Uncle Lyme then began to explain to Wang Fan: "In the eyes of people around the world, we mercenaries are just a bunch of reckless rabble, but that's a misconception."

We mercenaries are a special type of soldier who fights for money; you could say we mercenaries are suitable for anyone.In the case of non"Fighting."

"Those are special forces soldiers?"

Wang Fan said something quite reasonable.

Uncle Lyme snapped his fingers: "That's right!"

We are a group of professional killers who 'make a living from war'.

They are hired to carry out various assassinations, kidnappings, battles, and even coups.

As long as you have money, we will appear and solve all your troubles.

Don't you have a grudge against General Kunchai? As long as you can afford the money, we can help you kill General Kunchai, provided that you can afford the price.

General Khun Chai's official bounty on the blacklist is 80 million euros, while his bounty through irregular channels should be 200 million euros.

However, this guy is not easy to deal with. Our rescue of Prince Groot was only possible because he was out looking for business partners; otherwise, we wouldn't have been so lucky to escape.Yes.

"So high?"

I only have 100 million US dollars.

Wang Fan casually remarked something, and to everyone's surprise, all the mercenaries in the cabin instantly brandished their weapons.He stood up, and even though he had just been bandaging his wounds, Kesto directly...A knife was placed against Wang Fan's neck.

Uncle Lyme next to him stared at Wang Fan with wide eyes: "Who are you?"

Wang Fan's handsHe explained, trembling, "I'm just a Chinese college student who was used as a scapegoat."

I also dream of a market value of 100 million, but unfortunately, I'm not destined for that.

After Wang Fan finished speaking with a sigh, he himself seemed dejected.The group of people put down their weapons with some skepticism..

"But Captain Lem, are you guys so good because of training?""The result?"

This is what Wang Fan is more concerned about now; it seems that Wang Fan has already begun to make some plans.

Wang FanbenI didn't know, so it's no surprise that Uncle Lyme laughed when I asked.

Uncle Lyme continued to explain, "Our mercenaries come from a very diverse background."

Mercenaries are typically recruited from veterans, though this isn't always the case if you're a special forces soldier.If so, that would be even better.

And your doubts from earlierI can also answer your question: mercenaries are not just single-skill units.

Pilots, naval and special forcesIn terms of combat types and so on, mercenaries can be considered to be just like regular special forces.

Some of the world's more formal mercenary forces, such as the French Foreign Legion, don't care where you come from or what you've done before; as long as you sign up and pass the test, you can join.,addThen, following its training methods, you will be trained.To be a qualified mercenary.

When Wang Fan heard that regardless of where you come from or what you've done before, as long as you register and pass the assessment, you can join....

This is so important to Wang Fan now.Wang Fan seemed even more certain of his direction.

Of course, Wang Fan also has another option: to return to China.

However, there was only one outcome after returning to China: being arrested and killed.

Ruan Lin's framing of Wang Fan is permanent.Yes, now ChinaFang still wanted Wang Fan all over the world, and even the Interpol General Administration of Police had issued an arrest warrant for him.

"May I?"

Wang Fan pointed to himself, and suddenly everyone in the cabin burst into laughter.

Hahahaha, all kinds of laughter.

Uncle Lyme looked at the thin Wang Fan and shook his head helplessly, saying, "Being a mercenary means you have to endure the most hardships."

The mercenary course consists entirely of basic military training, including various security measures and counter-terrorism operations.The training methods were almost brutal.The ability to inflict humiliation, terror, and pain.

On average, only one in ten trainees can complete it.Two weeks of training, the rest mostly enduredTo quit halfway through because of the pain.

"And the ten trainees I mentioned are all accomplished veterans. You, on the other hand, clearly have no military experience. You'd better not apply."

After talking with Uncle Lime, Wang Fan finally realized that the word "mercenary" was more than just three words; it represented a new type of military.

Mercenaries are usually individuals or small groups.As a unit,Employed by a certain country or interest group, strategizingCoup d'état, k********g, assassination, lootingIt was once called 'war''.

Wang Fan's conclusion was that mercenaries work for whoever has the money; wherever there is war, there are mercenaries. Mercenaries are death brokers; they are war monsters who live and work in war..

And let Wang Fan reallyWhat's truly frightening is that mercenaries serve multiple purposes, including...It is favored by all parties.

What Wang Fan found even more unbelievable was that during the US invasion of Iraq, 40% of the fighting was carried out by mercenaries hired by the US military.

This was also to reduce US casualties, something Wang Fan hadn't anticipated.

Just after Wang Fan fully understood this profession that made a living from war and lived alongside death, Wang Fan...His heart was filled with unease, and Wang Fan felt as if he had found his direction.

However, the only downside was that Uncle Lyme said he wasn't suited to be a mercenary.

However, Wang Fan didn't think that way.

Wang Fan believes that it's not a question of whether you can do something, but whether you want to do it.

If they can all do this so well, why can't Wang Fan?
