Chapter 220 Acting Team Leader
Chapter 220 Acting Team Leader
Deep in the armor base, the atmosphere was particularly solemn and quiet. Except for Xinnan who was absent for some reason, the other four core members sat around the conference table, their eyes focused, revealing a concentration that should not be underestimated.
Meizhen listened carefully to Kunzhong's detailed report with her usual calmness. Her eyes gradually changed from calm to sharp, and a hint of surprise quietly crept onto her face.
"So, this newly emerging force of supernatural beasts is very different from the shadow world we are familiar with?" Her voice was mixed with confusion and deep thought, as if she was trying to uncover a layer of fog.
Kunzhong nodded firmly, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes, including regret for not being able to enjoy the duel to the fullest, and unwillingness to face the unknown challenge.
"Indeed, the power they displayed is fundamentally different from that of the mutants in the Shadow World. I was about to engage in a deeper fight, but they ran away!" His words revealed an indescribable passion and indomitable spirit.
Bei Miao nodded silently to show his agreement, but his stern face could not hide a hint of hidden worry, as if he was troubled by some heavy thoughts deep in his heart.
Meizhen hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke slowly. Her voice was steady and powerful: "It seems that we are facing an unprecedented opponent. Its origin is unknown, which makes it even more difficult. This means that every step we take must be more cautious and we cannot afford to make mistakes."
"Also, there is urgent news from Xinnan. He will be away from here temporarily due to training for an important piano competition. He will not be able to return to the team and fight alongside us immediately."
As soon as these words came out, Bei Miao's body trembled slightly involuntarily.
"Does Xinnan have any specific instructions for the team leader's arrangements?" Dongshan's voice revealed a bit of urgency and doubt, and his eyes wandered among the crowd.
Meizhen shook her head slightly, her tone slightly helpless: "Xinnan did not mention this, but I personally think..." Before she finished her words, she was interrupted by a more determined voice.
"I think we really need to appoint an acting leader immediately!" Bei Miao's voice echoed in the conference room, his eyes flashing with unquestionable determination.
"Before Xinnan returns to the team, we cannot be leaderless. We must have a clear command core to ensure the continuity and effectiveness of the operation."
His words revealed a strong confidence and determination, as if he had secretly vowed in his heart: "Li Xinnan, I will not let you give up this position easily. I, Bei Miao, have the confidence and ability to fight for the position of captain. When I really lead everyone through this period of time, they will naturally understand who is the qualified leader who can lead us to victory."
At this moment, Bei Miao's eyes were shining with infinite longing and firm belief for the future.
.....
"This..." Dongshan and the others exchanged complicated looks with each other, obviously caught off guard by Beimiao's sudden self-recommendation.
After a brief silence, Bei Miao spoke first, his voice a little hesitant but firm: "If it's just a temporary acting position, I think I'm capable of doing it."
Bei Miao's lips curled up into a barely perceptible smile, and his eyes became more determined, as if he had already foreseen the scene of himself leading the team to victory.
After a brief silence, Dong Shan nodded slowly, with a hint of caution in his tone: "If it is an agency, I agree to let Bei Miao take over as the team leader temporarily." His words revealed his recognition of Bei Miao's strength, and also expressed his expectations for the team's future.
In the urgent atmosphere of pursuing armor upgrades, every member has put in unprecedented efforts, and the training intensity has been significantly improved compared to the past.
Among this unremitting pursuit of power, Bei Miao is undoubtedly the most dazzling one. He trains himself day and night, and his sweat and persistence become the ladder to his strength.
The feedback from the backend data is like the most fair referee, mercilessly revealing the fact that Bei Miao's combat effectiveness has leapt to the top of the four people, becoming a force that cannot be underestimated in the team. This achievement is the best proof of his hard work.
However, when Bei Miao again asked to be the team leader, Mei Zhen's reaction was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
"Can I object?" There was obvious displeasure in her tone, and her eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, directly revealing the bad impression Bei Miao's past behavior had left on her.
Meizhen's dissatisfaction was not groundless. Bei Miao's arbitrary and inconsiderate behavior had already planted the seeds of dissatisfaction in her heart.
She knows very well that an excellent team leader not only needs strong fighting power, but also needs the ability to unite the team and win the hearts of the people. And Beimiao obviously still has a long way to go in these aspects.
Facing Meizhen's questioning, Bei Miao's eyes did flash with a complex emotion, which was an examination of his own abilities and a response to the team's expectations.
He knows very well that building trust does not happen overnight, but requires time and action to accumulate slowly.
"Meizhen, give me a chance, I will prove it with my actions!" Bei Miao's words were firm and powerful. He took a deep breath, as if to concentrate all his determination and courage in this moment.
He understood that this was not only a response to Meizhen's doubts, but also a challenge and commitment to himself.
Meizhen looked at Beimiao's determined eyes, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She saw Beimiao's determination and change, and also felt his sincerity and desire for the team.
After a brief silence, she finally nodded, her tone revealing a hint of helplessness but more of expectation: "Okay! I believe you will prove yourself with your actions."
......
In the conference room, the atmosphere was a little solemn. Kunzhong and Xizhao remained silent and did not make a clear statement on the current situation.
Bei Miao's eyes revealed an unquestionable determination. He spoke calmly, with a hint of tentativeness in his voice: "Do you two have different opinions? Or have you secretly considered the position of captain?"
"That's okay. If that's your intention, we can have a fair fight. If I lose, I'm willing to give up this position and let someone more capable take it." Although there was a hint of subtle provocation in Bei Miao's words, it also revealed his determination and confidence.
He tried to calm his inner turmoil, and once again focused his gaze on Xizhao and Kunzhong, his tone becoming more serious: "Now, please tell me, does anyone among you have reservations about this arrangement?"
Xizhao turned to look at Kunzhong. Although this new member had some reservations about Beimiao's style of doing things, he chose to be cautious in such an occasion.
After a brief thought, Kunzhong nodded slightly, expressing his unwillingness to argue. Seeing Kunzhong's words, Xizhao also nodded slightly to show that he had no objection.
A barely perceptible trace of satisfaction flashed across Bei Miao's eyes. He knew that although his proposal was not smooth sailing, it was finally recognized.
"Since everyone has no objection, I will then announce several new regulations." His words were filled with unquestionable authority.
“From today on, all information must be gathered to me first, and I will coordinate and distribute it to ensure the efficiency and order of the team’s actions. Even in the face of unexpected challenges, we can respond quickly and formulate countermeasures.”
Bei Miao's gaze swept over Dongshan, Kunzhong and Xizhao one by one. Although they hesitated, they finally chose to trust and obey.
Finally, Bei Miao's gaze fell on Meizhen. Meizhen seemed a little angry at the moment, but she still snorted and nodded slightly, which was regarded as her acceptance of the new rules.
This scene eased the atmosphere in the conference room a little and also heralded a new beginning.
"Very good, everyone must maintain a high degree of coordination in the battle, obey my command, and avoid any unnecessary individual actions." Bei Miao's words were filled with unquestionable determination, and a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He secretly compared himself in his mind and thought that the previous captain Li Xinnan was obviously lacking in management and failed to effectively unite the team's strength, resulting in each team acting independently during combat and making it difficult to form a joint force.
"Li Xinnan may be an excellent fighter, but he clearly still has a long way to go in leading a team." Bei Miao thought to himself, firmly believing that he could do better and lead the team to new heights.
However, he also knew that before pursuing this goal, he must eliminate the unstable factors in the team to ensure the purity and efficiency of the team.
His eyes inadvertently swept over Xizhao, and he was secretly calculating in his mind, but he remained calm on the surface.
"Oh, by the way, Brother Xinnan also asked me to pass on something." Kunzhong interrupted the tense atmosphere at the right time, took out the Flame Dragon Summoning Device from his body, and gently placed it on the table.
This action immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all showed complicated expressions on their faces.
"What does Xinnan mean? Could it be..." Meizhen couldn't help but speculate in a low voice, but was interrupted before she could finish her words.
"Don't get me wrong," Kunzhong explained quickly, "Xinnan said that he may not be able to directly participate in our operations due to his current condition, and taking the summoner to the training camp may expose our whereabouts, so we decided to temporarily store it with us for safety reasons."
After hearing this explanation, everyone felt a little relieved, but the doubts and uneasiness in their hearts still had not completely dissipated.
They understand that there may be more considerations and arrangements hidden behind this decision, and all of this requires them to face and resolve together in the days to come.
