General Greedy Wolf recognized Feng Yi's doubt and stated that it was not impossible for him to be granted the right to use the equipment at the Black Science Base without liability. However, there were clear regulations on the usage of weapons, and he believed that the President would grant him this favor. In return, Greedy Wolf had a condition: that Feng Yi would serve as a special training instructor for the elite warriors of the God's Thorn Legion. Having survived many battles, Feng Yi, with his ability to find exceptional talents such as Mu Tou and to unearth fighters with extraordinary abilities like Elvis, as well as Xia Xinru, Balun, and Old Smoky, Greedy Wolf believed that Feng Yi could train an elite group of soldiers for him.
After all, Grand, the White Coat Ace, wasn't exactly good at special training, and General Greedy Wolf was getting on in years. Aside from a battle-hardened soldier like Feng Yi, he couldn't confidently say that there was anyone better within the Federation.
Feng Yi agreed without hesitation. A drill instructor? Sure. After all, he was the gatekeeper guiding the recruits - the actual practice was up to them. As an instructor, all he could teach were the detailed skills in combat. Basic knowledge was a given.
As a real veteran of battle, Feng Yi could command respect from even the most seasoned soldiers. But Feng Yi had a demand: all schedules and routines had to be his decision. Moreover, the training site for God's Thorn Legion couldn't be within a bustling city, but rather in the outskirts. He deemed this would be more convenient for conducting practical drills, and would eliminate the need for transport. This also adhered to Feng Yi's personal training habits. As a General carrying the Hero Medal, respect from his soldiers was expected, regardless of rank.
A good training atmosphere can eliminate stray thoughts at their roots.
But it wasn't until the moment he left the President's office that Feng Yi felt something was off. He couldn't pinpoint what, but it seemed as if he had been conned. When he turned around to glance at the high-ranking officers present, he saw smug smiles spread across their old faces. Suddenly, Feng Yi was struck with a feeling that the two shamelessly crafty elders had tricked him!
Well, what's done is done. He had given his word and was committed, so that afternoon he arrived at the God's Thorn Legion's independent unit aboard a transport. The God's Thorn Legion was located on the outskirts of the Capital's military region. Although it was out in the suburbs, it still wasn't ideal. An elite force like this would undoubtedly attract a crowd if they started to train, so Feng Yi's first idea was to move the 2,000-plus elite soldiers of the God's Thorn Legion to the mountain plains nearby.
Most importantly, the area needed to have mountains, water, wild animals, venomous insects, steep cliffs, and a suitable environment for soldiers to train for survival in the wild. Such a location shouldn't be hard to find. He eagerly opened the electronic map with this in mind, and combined it with data from Eggy. He narrowed down his options to three locations: the banks of Somla River in the Northern Hemisphere, the Malgana Islands in the Eastern Hemisphere, and the Olympus mountains on Mars.
Mars was quite far from Earth. If possible, Feng Yi did not wish to waste even the slightest bit of national resources, so he decided to take the Clapping Tiger on a scouting trip first.
With a booming noise, powered by its master's will, the Clapping Tiger transformed into an untiring beast. This uncontrollable war chariot, lost on the Death Planet, was resplendent. It surged along, speeding across the jungle as if it were an invisible ghost. After several hours of continuous flight, it came to a stop on the outskirts of a primitive jungle.
The outskirts of the Malgana Islands are in a temperate zone. Despite being coastal, this area experiences a lot of rain, which can be seen from its moist soil. Feng Yi shook his head in disappointment. The rainfall here was too high, making it unsuitable for specialized soldier training.
It seemed that he'd have to make a visit to the bank of the Somla River. As it started to get dark, it was too risky to travel far in the Clapping Tiger. Doing so might land him in a countryside vegetable field or even worse, collide with someone. He didn't fancy going to jail. After contemplating for a moment, he processed the Clapping Tiger back into the Space Crystal and soon, a black biological Mecha appeared.
There was no other choice, he hadn't wanted to ride in this thing due to its high exposure risk. Though the risk wasn't major, he might run into some bad luck. But the circumstances had changed and he couldn't ride the Clapping Tiger all the way to the Northern Hemisphere. As for the magnetic levitation, Feng Yi didn't have a habit of using it unless it was necessary due to long-distance travel.
Boom! The black Mecha turned into a dark ray as it dashed into the sky. To conceal his tracks, Feng Yi had set the Mecha to stealth mode before takeoff and had it fly at a low altitude. The sensation was incredible. The imaging device provided a clear view despite the dark night. Watching the rivers and mountains swiftly recede was an exhilarating experience. The Mecha moved fast — it felt like he had arrived at his destination in a blink of an eye.
The result was undoubtedly disappointing. Although the environment of Somla River was decent, it lacked one essential thing: life. Due to industrial transformation, there was no life or organic matter in the river, which led to only 12 protected species of animals in the surrounding area of the Somla River. Just killing one of them would be illegal, let alone eating one. Training here would probably land Feng Yi in jail for good.
