Godslayer: A random filename extension?

Like the Masked Squad, the Phoenix Squad was also lying in wait near an operation base of an ancient god church.

However, at this time, the average strength of the Phoenix Squad was surprisingly exaggerated.

Their team leader, Xia Simeng, was already just one step away from the true ceiling, and the rest of the team members had all stepped into the realm of half a step ceiling.

After all, the Phoenix Squad's situation was special, so after the Immortal Banquet and the Heavenly Tribulation, their strength improved by leaps and bounds.

"This is a complete stomp, Captain. I think we can finally challenge that descended god. Wasn't it said that the opponent is only the weakest of the god sequences?"

Vice Captain Kong Shang felt incredibly arrogant.

Xia Simeng glanced at him, then nodded.

“That makes sense. Then you stay behind and fight that god while I lead the sisters to retreat.”

Kong Shang: Okay... huh??

Kong Shanggang was about to win when he immediately realized something was wrong. Shouldn't everyone work together to defeat that god?

The opponent is a god! Captain, you want me to go and fight him alone?

It's not impossible, but that would require waiting until you've fully realized your potential, like waiting another two months.

"You have to believe in yourself. You can do it. Don't worry. Even if the other party is a god, he is still the weakest kind. He can't kill you who has the bloodline of the phoenix."

"Plus, the other side definitely won't linger in the fight. At most, you'll only be seriously injured, which will give me the perfect opportunity to apply for your discharge due to injury."

Xia Simeng said that she recently spotted several promising girls at the recruit training camp who could be candidates for the Phoenix Squad.

Kong Shang: ...Captain, why do you still keep thinking of finding a reason to kick me out?

Woohoo~

(っ╥╯﹏╰╥c) No more love.

"Get out of here, don't make that face to disgust me, but I am serious about the selection of new team members."

Xia Simeng reminded the team members that, according to the Night Watchers' rules, once someone reaches the true ceiling of human potential, they are automatically removed from the team.

They will become trump cards, leaders, commanders, or simply individuals acting independently.

Take the former "human ceiling" for example. They may have once belonged to a Night's Watch squad, but who is still a member of that squad now?

"Squad, squad" literally means private in the army.

Whose private has become a commander, and in the midst of even the smallest skirmishes, does he personally carry a gun and personally maneuver through the trenches on the front lines every day?

Once everyone has reached the pinnacle level, they will have become the predecessors of those who come after them.

Even if they carry out missions again, they will basically be top-level, specialized, and highly capable combat operations.

Instead of being a special squad that goes around putting out fires as it is now.

"If this trend continues, our Phoenix Squad will not be far from disbanding. You should find suitable candidates for successors and disciples as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, the members of the Phoenix Squad also fell into deep thought, as this seemed to be a major problem that urgently needed to be considered and resolved.

I was so focused on marveling at my improved strength that I almost forgot about this.

"Alright, we still have a few months, everyone can take their time to think it over. Now, listen to my instructions..."

They were completely dominating their side, but the situation was less certain in the other areas. Therefore, the Phoenix Squad had to send some members to support other battlefields.

Of the nine locations where the gods have descended, Lin Qiye's fifth reserve team is capable of handling one.

The members of the Masked Squad can handle one place.

Xia Simeng felt that she could handle this situation on her own as part of the Phoenix Squad.

The medium team was also lying in wait somewhere, and they thought that dealing with the other party would not cause any problems.

The remaining five locations.

Miao Su, the newly reorganized leader of Squad 010, went to a landing point alone.

But all she could do was barely protect the people. After all, although Miao Su was also a returnee from the Fairy Banquet, she had not yet reached Klein's peak.

In a one-against-five situation, it would be virtually impossible to defeat the entire Church of the Ancient Gods.

Similarly, the members of the Suzhou 017 team were in the same situation, but their situation was much better.

After all, there were eight of them already in the Klein territory.

In an eight-on-five situation, the advantage is on my side, and I can definitely secure a stronghold.

Then there's the fasting center. The Master's disciple, together with Deputy Warden Lü Yang and Doctor Li, is managing a base. It seems quite secure, and there shouldn't be any problems.

Thus, there are still two outposts that cannot be dealt with.

This was the mission of their Phoenix Squad.

After all, they have a total of seven half-step ceilings.

Xia Simeng arranged for Kong Shang to go and assist Miao Su in defeating the opponent.

Then, two team members were assigned to each of the eight and nine Ancient God Church strongholds.

The last person left was to stay behind and cooperate with their actions.

"That's it, let's get started."

At Xia Simeng's command, the Phoenix Squad members immediately set off for their respective mission locations.

In this battle, the Great Xia side must severely damage the Ancient God Church!
