The sunglasses were knocked off, and the man wearing them hesitated to act upon seeing Wang Zheng's face, but his eyes revealed uncontainable shock.

"Damn it, you're the damn... captain"

After removing the sunglasses, this handsome man had a neatly combed side part, sharp and spirited eyes, and often held a blade of grass in his mouth. He looked slightly rascally; when he smiled, there was something mischievous about him, making him quite attractive to girls.

But despite the smile on his face, his throat moved up and down several times, showing significant emotional fluctuation.

The corners of Wang Zheng's mouth twitched, revealing a baffled smile.

"I'm not the damn captain."

The man wearing glasses snapped to attention with a bang, his right hand fiercely slapped against his forehead as he stared intently at Wang Zheng, shouting loudly:

"Captain! Young Dumas reports!"

Wang Zheng looked at this "Young Dumas," but the smile between his eyes slowly faded.

"Yang Ming, you've joined forces with the wicked."

The gaze and voice of Wang Zheng became increasingly cold. Young Dumas showed a helpless expression upon hearing him.

"Damn it, Captain, we haven't seen each other in such a long time; don't scold me right off the bat"

Yang Ming was known by the codename of Young Dumas and had once been the sharpest blade in the Capital Region Snow Leopard Special Forces. Later on, when the Longlin special forces unit was established, Yang Ming was one of the first batch of members selected to join it, thus beginning a new chapter of his legendary life.

After the Dragon Scale squad was established, all members referred to each other by code names. Apart from the four top-notch experts in Dragon Scale, no one usually knew each other's real names; however, this guy with the strange code name "Little Dumas" was quite famous.

No one knew why this handsome but mischievous fellow had such an odd code name, but he seemed very satisfied with it, as if it were his source of pride. Perhaps he really was a philandering character!

After the last battle in Yunyin, Dragon Scale suffered heavy casualties, and many elites lay buried among the lush mountains and fields. Over these years, Wang Zheng didn't know who had survived, who had died, or who had betrayed their comrades. He didn't know if anyone had gotten married or had children, nor did he know how they were living. As a squad leader, Wang Zheng was clueless about all of this.

China is so vast, and with such a sea of people, how could one find those scattered former comrades

Wang Zheng didn't even know if the Su family had sent anyone to continue pursuing the surviving Dragon Scale members after that final battle!

In all these years, Wang Zheng had only encountered Li Minghao once!

Today, he met his second comrade!

"Are you following Dong Qinpeng to kill me" Still, no smile of recognition could be seen in Wang Zheng's eyes. He knew that if it hadn't been him but someone else, they would have probably been shot and killed by Yang Ming earlier!

If Yang Ming was truly a hired gun or bodyguard under Dong Qinpeng, he must have shed plenty of blood for his boss.

Yang Ming knew why Wang Zheng was angry with him. Helplessly ruffling his hair, he explained: "Captain, I don't work for Dong Qinpeng."

"Tell me more." Wang Zheng could tell that Yang Ming had some difficulty in speaking frankly about it.

"After so many years of being soldiers, we only have a lot of strength and nothing else. After escaping Yunyin, I even found myself unable to live in society, completely out of place."

Yang Ming sighed wryly: "Apart from joining the underworld, what can we do"

Hearing this, Wang Zheng was silent.

Serving in the military is undoubtedly a passionate way to serve one's country, but after dedicating so many years of youth and blood for the nation, what remains

Besides the scars on their bodies and meager retirement benefits, there's also an unyielding will. They have almost nothing else; they must restart their lives and relearn how to live when they return to society.

Many people end up joining gangs or becoming enforcers due to a lack of essential survival skills, some even get caught for breaking the law, these are harsh realities that one finds無奈.

The idea of fame obviously resonated deeply with Wang Zheng.

Wang Zheng realizes he has extraordinary martial prowess. After leaving the military, he can change his identity and continue to battle in the dark world of the West,積蓄力量 for his unfinished endeavors. But what about others What about those soldiers who don't have such formidable strength

"Or shall we find a place to drink" Yang Ming chuckled: "I know quite a few fun spots within Nanshan Province."

“Still the same old you.” Wang Zheng shook his head. It can’t be denied that encountering another former comrade made him feel rather sentimental; he was both moved and melancholic, recalling many things from the past.

Seeing that his captain didn't agree to it, Yang Ming laughed again: "Or I’ll take you back myself. Anyone who dares to touch my captain will have their neck broken by me."

Wang Zheng gave Yang Ming a sidelong glance and said: "Then perhaps you should start with yourself first."

Indeed, Yang Ming had posed a significant threat to Wang Zheng earlier. The two were almost evenly matched in the gunfight, which greatly pleased Wang Zheng; it seemed that despite his carefree demeanor, this young man hadn't slackened off on training and his individual combat skills had even improved since their days together.

"That won’t do, Captain. If I die, you’ll be short of a helper." Yang Ming laughed: "Never mind; today’s treat is on me. You’ve come to Nanshan Province, so if I don’t entertain you properly, those guys will definitely roast me when I get back."

"Those guys" Wang Zheng asked reflexively.

“Uh…” Realizing he had slipped up, Yang Ming quickly closed his mouth.

Those comrades are probably people he’ll never see again in this lifetime!

"Alright then, you'll be hosting tonight. Afterward, come back to the capital with me," Wang Zheng said with narrowed eyes.

"Sure thing, heading back to the capital," Yang Ming smiled slightly, but a cold expression was revealed within his smile.

"You, me, and Li Minghao—now there are at least three of us," A bright gleam appeared in Wang Zheng's eyes.

"Damn it, Bro Hao is here too" Upon hearing the name of Li Minghao, Yang Ming's face lit up even more. "He can still be considered half my teacher when it comes to throwing knives! How’s he doing these days"

"His status isn't very good, just a leader of one of the red and green gangs in the capital," Wang Zheng said with a faint smile; clearly, Li Minghao's achievements far exceeded their expectations. Wang Zheng knew that the efforts Li Minghao had put forth were no less than what Eastern Tyrant King had invested.

"Damn it, he’s the Black Society Emperor of the capital! Same as being in the black society, how is there such a huge gap" Yang Ming looked full of regret. "If I’d known this earlier, I would have followed Bro Hao into the business!"

“Can you take that adjective out”

"Which adjective"

"Damn it."

Wang Zheng laughed heartily after saying this and hugged Yang Ming warmly with both arms.

“Good bro.” Wang Zheng patted Yang Ming’s back.

"Captain, to meet you guys is really good," Yang Ming's voice was slightly trembling but he quickly continued. "But your two chests don’t seem the same size."

"Get lost! My left chest just got injured; how can they be the same"would be enough to stop a thousand soldiers and horses.Although Wang Zheng's tone was calm just now, he exuded an unparalleled domineering aura. In the end, Shi Shi was merely a young woman in her twe...
