That night.

Ye Qiu and Shavega, leading a group of people, camped directly in the wild.

This time, with Ye Qiu's permission, Shang Yu and a group of Genetic Warriors could finally start their training.

But just as the training began, more than twenty Genetic Warriors were surprised to discover that their bodies had unconsciously changed.

"What's going on? Why do I feel like the power inside me is easier to control?"

"Yeah, me too, and not only is it easier to control, but the power seems to have increased a bit."

"This is so strange! We've just been playing these past two days, no training at all."

Shang Yu and the group were perplexed and couldn't help but look at Ye Qiu.

In response, Ye Qiu seemed calm, smiled, and said, "Haha, you've finally noticed the benefits? The competition is about to start, and you thought I would let you relax for no reason?"

"Since I made such a decision, it must be beneficial for you. Before this, your desire to become stronger was too intense, causing everyone's nerves to be too taut."

"If it were just the beginning, this enthusiasm could certainly help you improve, but as a saying from Huaxia goes, 'things will backfire if pushed too far.' Such a state for too long is naturally not good."

"This time, I let you under Shavega's lead to relax and play, so you could unwind. Experience tells me that in such a state, your mindset can easily improve, thus boosting your strength somewhat."

"The final outcome is exactly like this, and your improvement now is greater than what you'd achieve with intentional training."

Seeing Shang Yu and the others were still puzzled, Ye Qiu casually explained a bit. After speaking, he leaned against a big tree, squinting his eyes, and took a nap.

These words were a revelation to Shang Yu and the group.

Instantly, everyone looked at Ye Qiu with eyes filled with shock and gratitude.

They didn't disturb Ye Qiu with words, but their respect for him grew even more. Because even though they've only been with Ye Qiu for a few days, the benefits they've gained are something they couldn't obtain even after two or three years otherwise!

Having a leader like Ye Qiu feels like a blessing accumulated over several lifetimes!

In the following two days.

Ye Qiu and the group of Genetic Warriors continued to wander around under Shavega's lead.

Of course, during these two days of fun, Ye Qiu had fewer thoughts.

It was purely to let the brothers relax properly before the competition started.

After all, this military competition is incredibly important to every country.

Each nation will dispatch the elite of the elite.

The intensity and difficulty of the competition surely aren't as simple as imagined.

Over these two days of interaction, Ye Qiu and Shavega got to know each other much better. Shavega had a good impression of Ye Qiu, initially just introducing various tourist spots, but now, whenever possible, she takes the initiative to approach Ye Qiu and start other conversations.

Ye Qiu would occasionally joke with Shavega, and during this time, whether intentional or not, Ye Qiu often managed to take some liberties with Shavega.

Initially, Shavega's entire face would turn red with shyness each time.

But that bashful look always tugged at Ye Qiu's heartstrings.

It's indeed quite endearing...

Of course, later on, Shavega became much more relaxed, and when faced with those unintended liberties, she only froze for a moment without overreacting.

On the other side, Shang Yu and the group of Genetic Warriors also hit it off with Shavega, though not as close as she was with Ye Qiu.

That noon.

On Shavega's suggestion, the group went to a Thai specialty restaurant to try some local dishes.

Before long, the waiter brought all the dishes.

However, just as the group was happily getting ready to eat, suddenly, a cell phone rang.

It was Shavega's phone.

Upon hearing the ringtone, she didn't think much and immediately took out her phone, but then her expression changed slightly.

It became somewhat gloomy.

After hesitating for a moment, she answered the call.

The phone had good quality; a voice came from the other side right away, but Ye Qiu and the group didn't hear what was said.

A few seconds later, Shavega hung up the phone.

From answering to hanging up, she never spoke, but her expression became even more unpleasant.

After putting away her phone, she immediately got up, jogged away in a hurry.

Suddenly.

It was too sudden.

Shavega left even without saying goodbye to Ye Qiu and the group.

"Boss, what's going on? Something doesn't feel right," Shang Yu asked puzzledly. After these days of interaction, the relationship between the Genetic Warriors and Ye Qiu improved, and they naturally switched from calling him 'chief' to 'boss,' making it seem closer.

"Leaving so suddenly, there is indeed an issue," Ye Qiu nodded slightly, speaking in a deep voice, "These past two days, she's been accompanying us without even charging the usual expenses. We should follow her and take a look. If there really is something, we can help out."

"Okay!" Shang Yu and the other Genetic Warriors nodded one after another, they all shared a good relationship with Shavega and naturally wouldn't refuse, even feeling a bit worried.

More than twenty minutes later.

At Shavega's house.

The house already seemed somewhat rundown, and now it looked even more dilapidated.

Both inside and outside were a mess.

In the yard stood a group of men in military uniforms, all looking somewhat ferocious, tugging at a child who seemed only seven or eight years old.

"No! Don't take me away, please, don't take me away..."

"I don't want to go with you."

"Uncle, please, I don't want to become a Scout, I don't want to..."

The boy struggled desperately, crying out loudly, but it was of no use.

How could he be a match for these adults?

This boy was Shavega's younger brother, now targeted by a mercenary squad led by Naizalun, who personally showed up to take him away as a Scout.

This Naizalun was quite notorious locally, a close associate of the local crime boss, General Meng Cai.

Shavega had warned her brother about such situations numerous times, but now that it's happening, her brother certainly doesn't want to go.

At this moment, quite a crowd had gathered around the yard.

Facing this group of mercenaries, the surrounding people felt both angry and hateful.

But beyond watching the boy being taken away, what else could they do?
