Chapter 268: Entry of Five Thousand Female Soldiers into the Base
Lin Mengxuan opened her mouth, wanting to say something. Just coming out of seclusion in the secluded villa and entering a new base, she felt a bit lost and naturally wanted a man to accompany her. However, a clever woman would know that it's best not to act spoiled and disturb a man when he's busy. Even if he might not say anything, he could feel displeased deep down.
So, the words that the beauty uttered changed a bit.
"Well, dear, please hurry up. I'm a bit nervous and want you by my side. Also, just now, flying in the sky for so long, it feels like everything inside my womb is about to flow out. I want my husband's big thing to block it down there."
Lin Mengxuan whispered in Derick's ear, expressing this with a sense of shame. Although she wouldn't disturb a man when he's busy, she knew what kind of words could make them happy and excited.
"Alright... Dear will definitely satisfy you~"
Derick said with a smile. One has to admit, married women understand men. The young girls in the base need to learn a bit more in this aspect. Perhaps only Camilla can compare with Lin Mengxuan.
Afterward, Derick called a maid over, asking her to take Lin Mengxuan to the villa area of the base. Then, he greeted Angelica and the others, and directly left.
Next, Lin Mengxuan truly saw Derick's authority within the base. Not to mention that the girl guiding her was cautious while talking to her, even the many women around looked at her with awe and admiration.
On the other side, Derick flew directly to the west side of the base. Because most people in the base were concentrated near the central hospital, this area had fewer people.
And at this moment, one after another transport plane was slowly descending, with teams walking out from inside.
The female soldiers from the previous waves of arrivals had already gathered together, standing in neat formation. Beside them, nearly a thousand female warriors stared at them vigilantly, preventing any unexpected incidents.
"You finally came back..."
Seeing Derick flying over from a distance, Angelica walked up, hastily grabbing his hand.
After receiving the rule of Lisa and Judy, Angelica and Yue Yiren didn't dare to be negligent. They quickly prepared a place to arrange these female soldiers.
A total of five thousand female soldiers, in terms of quantity, nearly occupied one-tenth of the Order base. If any accidents happened with so many female soldiers who had undergone military training, it could be troublesome.
"Don't worry, no need to be concerned. They, after all, have a military background and will understand the rules. They're not bandits."
Derick chuckled lightly. When he received the news from Judy earlier, he was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect the military district, which had a grudge against him, to willingly send these female soldiers to him. At one point, Derick even thought there might be some conspiracy behind it.
However, now that these female soldiers were already inside the base, once they've tasted the benefits, there's no way to withdraw. Even if the military district wanted to backtrack, it was impossible.
"That's true, but they are a collective, different from ordinary survivors. And just joining the base, they don't have much loyalty. We need to be cautious in case of any unforeseen circumstances."
"Don't worry, someone will manage them on our behalf."
Derick looked at the front of the female soldier formation. A soldier with a handsome and capable appearance, bearing a resemblance to Mu Ling, stood there in military attire.
He glanced at the epaulettes and couldn't help but smile. A brigadier general, and judging by the appearance, probably not even thirty yet. Could it be a rising star?
However, these female soldiers below were quite satisfying to Derick. Their military bearing was impeccable, and their overall morale was high. While their killing intent might be weaker than the female warriors who engaged in slaughter daily, they were undoubtedly much stronger than ordinary maids. A bit of training, and they would become a formidable force.
Derick turned around and walked towards Liu Wanting. Mu Ling, who was chatting with her on the side, patted her shoulder and then stepped aside.
"You've worked hard, Ling..."
"To share the worries for the Lord is my duty!"
Derick nodded and then looked at Liu Wanting, whose expression was complex.
"Brigadier General, Liu Wanting, right?"
Derick looked at her meaningfully, his gaze carrying scrutiny. An invisible pressure made Liu Wanting feel her heartbeat slowing down.
The man's gaze made her slightly uncomfortable, but she still firmly raised her head and looked into his eyes, loudly responding.
"Yes..."
"Very good, I like the defiant look in your eyes..."
Derick nodded. Originally, he thought this brigadier general named Liu Wanting might be a bit arrogant, but now it seemed that she had some substance.
Ignoring Liu Wanting, Derick walked to the front of the female soldier formation.
"Quiet down, I am the controller of this base. I know you are a bit confused now, not sure what to do. Now, I want to ask, what do you think is the duty of a soldier?"
Derick's voice attracted the attention of the female soldiers. They exchanged glances and then collectively looked at Derick, answering in unison.
"Defend the homeland..."
"Very good. Now, inside this base, there are tens of thousands of unarmed ordinary survivors who need protection. In the distant Magic Capital, there are hundreds of thousands of survivors who need rescue. Do you think you should protect and save them?"
"We should..."
All the female soldiers shouted in unison, their voices echoing loudly over the base.
"Very well, welcome to the City of Order..."
"In this base, you don't need to worry about your safety or whether there is enough food. What you need to do is take your weapons and defend Order, protect the people of Order."
"My only requirement is that you must absolutely obey my orders and not do anything against the rules of Order. If anyone is found out, she will face the most severe punishment. Do you understand?"
"Understood..."
All the female soldiers shouted together. As for the rest, Liu Jianye and others had already explained before they arrived. These female soldiers naturally understood this principle and wouldn't express any dissatisfaction in public.
"Good..."
Derick nodded. With such a group of professionally trained female soldiers, the power of Order would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced, and the efficiency of killing zombies would also be higher.
Liu Wanting looked at Derick with a gaze mixed with awe, confusion, and doubt. She really wanted to know what kind of man the leader of this base was and how she should face the challenges ahead.
"Liu Wanting, I don't care what you're thinking, but remember, manage these female soldiers well, let them integrate into the base as soon as possible. Also, I don't want to hear any negative remarks. Do you understand?"
Liu Wanting's complex gaze turned into determination, and she nodded firmly.
"Yes..."
Derick nodded, believing that under the management of his sister and Yue Yiren, with the assistance of Major Liu Wanting, integrating these female soldiers into Order quickly and turning them into a sharp tool in his hands would not be a problem.
Derick clicked on the system store to make a purchase, spending five hundred thousand points to buy five thousand personal wristbands, including weapons for these female soldiers.
Previously, there were just over a million points in the system inventory. He hadn't had a chance to buy a new ability yet, and now he spent a considerable amount, making him a bit worried.
"Oh well, out with the old, in with the new. With so many female soldiers, the pace of external expansion can be accelerated..."
The female warriors, in coordination, distributed weapons and personal wristbands to the newcomers, teaching them how to use them. Following Liu Wanting's orders, these female soldiers lined up and marched forward. Yue Yiren, near the dormitories of the original female warriors, arranged accommodations for them collectively, allowing them to integrate into the base as quickly as possible.
"My Lord, there are many issues. Although these female soldiers have a place to stay, the food supply is not sufficient. The crops planted earlier, including grains and fruits, are fixed. Now, with so many new people, food is a bit scarce. We can sustain it for a while, but it will be difficult in the long run," Yue Yiren quickly reported the situation in the base as Derick relaxed.
