Online Game: Unrivaled Gods

"You're very strong." The commander observed Sun Rui for a while before uttering these words. He continued, "While we require each person in our unit to have strong combat capabilities, we also need to cooperate. A soldier who doesn't understand cooperation, no matter how strong his individual strength is, cannot help the unit. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Captain!" Sun Rui straightened his body and shouted loudly.

"Someone, take this greenhorn and make him put on the black iron armor and black iron spear." As the captain spoke, two soldiers quickly appeared beside Sun Rui.

"follow me."

"Yes."

As the captain watched Sun Rui leave, he spoke calmly, "How are you feeling?" The area around the captain was empty, as if he were talking to himself.

"Hehe, our young master is as strong as you can see. Even the two of us combined probably wouldn't be a match for him. However, the outcome would be uncertain if he encountered a twenty-man squad from our unit." A strange voice came from the air, but no one was in sight. The commander-in-chief was not surprised by this.

"Would it be effective to have our young master wear the Xuan Tie Armor and wield the Xuan Tie Spear?" the captain continued, speaking into thin air.

"I doubt it. Our young master has been said to have superhuman strength since childhood, so his strength is definitely greater than others." A cheerful voice floated in the air, answering the question.

"Then we can only bring out that item from the Mo family." The captain seemed to think for a moment before answering casually.

"Yes, this is the only way."

"Then go to the magistrate's residence and bring the things back." The captain said, a smile appearing on his face.

"Damn it, you wait here for me, I'll be right back." Silence returned after that shout.

Meanwhile, Sun Rui had already followed the two soldiers to the warehouse.

"This is our unit's armory. No one is allowed to enter here without the commander's order," the soldier explained to Sun Rui.

"This is the Black Iron Armor, you can wear it yourself." Sun Rui saw a complete set of armor in the direction the soldier pointed. The armor was black in color and covered with dust, obviously it hadn't been touched for a long time.

Sun Rui felt a slight chill as his fingers touched the black iron armor. When he held the arm guard in his hand, he felt a sudden weight and was secretly surprised: "This arm guard must weigh about twenty pounds."

"This set of Xuan Iron Armor was discovered in this canyon when General Lü found this Mo Family passage. Since there were no skilled craftsmen, it was simply cast into a set of Xuan Iron Armor and a Xuan Iron Spear. The Xuan Iron Armor weighs a total of 120 jin, and the Xuan Iron Spear weighs 80 jin." Two soldiers took turns explaining the origin of this set of Xuan Iron Armor to Sun Rui.

Listening to the two's explanation, Sun Rui put on the Xuan Tie Armor piece by piece. After putting it on, Sun Rui felt a pressure but it was not uncomfortable. Sun Rui knew that this was because his strength to lift the cauldron was working.

Xuan Tie Armor: ? ? ? Equipment, Defense? ? ? ? Weight 120, Durability? ? ?

Looking at the system's prompt, Sun Rui smiled wryly, understanding what the soldier meant by the lack of skilled craftsmen. There was no way to process the black iron, so the things made only resembled armor but were not fully formed.

Sun Rui then casually picked up the black iron spear next to him and began to check its attributes.

Xuan Tie Spear: ? ? ? Weapon, Attack: ? ? ?, Weight: 80, Durability: ? ? ?

"As expected." Sun Rui thought to himself. Before even taking it, Sun Rui had guessed that the Xuan Tie Spear, like the Xuan Tie Armor, was also an unfinished product.

"Whoosh." Sun Rui casually brandished the black iron spear in his hand a couple of times, and the heavy black iron spear made a whooshing sound as it tore through the air.

"Young Master is indeed born with superhuman strength." Two soldiers exclaimed from a distance. Ordinary people would have a hard time holding that black iron spear, let alone wielding it, but Sun Rui seemed to have no trouble at all.

"Thump..." Sun Rui retracted his spear, and the two soldiers felt the ground tremble as the butt of the spear touched the ground.

"Young Master, let's go. The Captain is waiting for you." The two soldiers were much more respectful than when they arrived. Having witnessed Sun Rui's strength, they were completely convinced of his abilities.

"Thump." Sun Rui took a step, leaving a clear footprint on the ground, confirming the weight on his body.

"Reporting to the Captain, Lü Bu is fully dressed." Sun Rui stood upright, appearing completely normal, as if he were not carrying a 200-pound weight.

"Okay." After the captain answered, he fell silent, and Sun Rui also remained silent, waiting for the captain's instructions.

"I'm exhausted, here you go." A dark figure flashed by, and the captain had four rings in his hand. With Sun Rui's eyesight, he could make out the figure's appearance. It was a thin old man, and he guessed his identity.

"Put these on." The head instructor handed four rings to Sun Rui, who obediently put the rings on his hands without asking any questions.

"Player Lu Bu is restricted by the Mo family's binding rope, his martial strength is reduced to 10 points, and his talent strength is sealed."

As the system notification sounded, Sun Rui felt a wave of weakness wash over him. He knew this wasn't just weakness, but a side effect of his rapidly declining strength.

"Ugh." The decrease in strength made Sun Rui truly feel the weight of the two hundred pounds on his body, and his originally upright body began to tremble.

"Yes, that's right." The captain nodded and continued, "Don't take off the Mo family's binding rope, Lu Bu. You can start training with this on."

"Yes, Captain."

"You can just stand here for today." After giving Sun Rui the order, the captain left, leaving Sun Rui standing alone.

"You lot, stop slacking off! Look at your posture, none of you are up to standard." The departing commander continued his work, training the soldiers.

As time passed, Sun Rui felt his body becoming numb. Every minute and second seemed to pass very slowly. Deep inside, a voice kept telling him that he only needed to circulate his internal energy and he would be able to relax. This tempted him, making Sun Rui want to circulate the "Overlord's True Scripture".

Just as Sun Rui was about to give up and was about to circulate the "Overlord's True Scripture," he heard the captain's voice: "Alright, it's time for lunch. Let's stop training here for now." From the moment Sun Rui met the captain until now, he felt that the captain's words were the most comforting. Sun Rui couldn't hold his breath and plopped down on the ground, where he sat down, leaving a noticeable dent.

"Young Master, don't sit down. Even if you're tired, you can't sit down right away." Wang Huan's voice came from behind Sun Rui.

"Huff, huff." Sun Rui was panting heavily, not wanting to speak at all, and used his hands to push himself up.

"Let's go, it's time to eat. The food in our military camp is pretty good." Wang Huan watched Sun Rui struggle to stand up, but didn't help him up. He just talked to him from the side.

Sun Rui didn't answer; he was completely focused on controlling his body's movements, each step making a dull thud.

When Sun Rui finally arrived at the kitchen camp with difficulty, led by Wang Huan, he found that all the soldiers had already sat down and started eating, realizing that he was the last person to arrive.

After getting their food from Wang Huan, the two sat down nearby and began eating their lunch. Wang Huan, who had been nagging the whole way, quieted down and started wolfing down his food.

Sun Rui looked at the food with a troubled expression. He had no appetite at all and felt weak all over, not wanting to move.

"Young Master, eat quickly, otherwise how will you train this afternoon?" Wang Huan saw Sun Rui staring at the food without moving and whispered, "Everyone is like this. When you're very tired, you don't have an appetite, but you have to force yourself to eat now, otherwise you'll be in trouble this afternoon."

After hearing Wang Huan's advice, Sun Rui reluctantly started to move and forced the food into his mouth.

The captain, who was observing Sun Rui from a distance, nodded slightly, quite satisfied.

"What are your impressions of this young master?" A soft voice reached the captain's ears.

"His physical fitness is excellent. After wearing the binding rope, he can stand for a whole morning wearing the black iron armor and the black iron spear without getting tired. His physical fitness is unmatched. It's just that his control over his body is not very good." The captain answered expressionlessly.

"I just don't know if I can stick it out." That soft voice rang out again.

"have a look."

In the afternoon, Sun Rui repeated what he had done in the morning, continuing to stand motionless. In the afternoon, Sun Rui didn't know whether his body had become completely numb or had adapted to the weight, but the feeling of fatigue was not so intense.

"You're not using your body's potential at all. Your breathing is erratic, and you're not applying the correct force." The captain came up to Sun Rui and began to point out his shortcomings.

"Follow me, when you inhale, push your lower abdomen out and contract your upper abdomen; when you exhale, contract your lower abdomen and push your upper abdomen out..." The captain taught Sun Rui the breathing method, and Sun Rui followed along. With each inhale and exhale, Sun Rui's body relaxed, and after his breathing became regular, a new power came from inside his body, making Sun Rui feel relaxed.

After his body relaxed, Sun Rui had the energy to watch the rest of the training. The afternoon training was different from the morning training. Everyone started running laps around the camp while wearing armor. There was nothing special about it, just running non-stop without any rest time. According to the captain, the goal was to train everyone to be able to run until they were exhausted, so that they would have enough stamina to kill more enemies on the battlefield.

"Didn't you all eat lunch? You're running so slowly. Even the old lady can run faster than you. The last hundred have to wash the socks of the remaining thousand-plus soldiers." The commander shouted as he followed behind the thousand-plus soldiers.

After the commander announced the punishment, the team's speed increased significantly. No one fell behind. The sight of over a thousand heavily armored soldiers running laps around the camp gave Sun Rui an unstoppable feeling, and he felt the entire camp tremble.
