Tonight was bound to be a sleepless night for many people. The seventh day was about to arrive, a few more hours to be precise.Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
The family of the soldiers did not go to sleep inside the house. They gathered around the portal to wait for their husbands' return. Based on the information Cao Yuntai told them, this morning should be the time.
They did not intend to sleep but wait for their return outside. They should return in three hours and twenty-two minutes. Everyone brought blankets outside to make themselves warm.
Elin who was aware of their circumstance decided to cook for them. It was several pots of soup. She brought the ingredients from the Arkania Continent, including the boar feet.
Because of their circumstance, they had to flee from the Royal Knights and Guardian Knights hence Elin always brought the food ingredient within the storage bag. Thanks to her, these people did not need to worry about the food shortage.
As their leader, Tang Shaoyang joined them. He brought the couch outside to sit, and the table. He sat on the couch as Elin, Delia, Arina, and Selena handed out the soup and a piece of bread. Baking was Elin's specialty, her bread was so good.
After handing out the food, they went back to Tang Shaoyang's side. Of course, they served themselves a bowl of soup and also the bread. After a few days, taking care of the food for them, the four girls including Fan Rui's girlfriend got along with everyone.
"How is it? Have you gotten used to the kitchen tools?" Tang Shaoyang asked Elin. Yes, on the first day, Elin was having trouble cooking and baking with advanced technology.
"I am fine now. Suyin helps and teaches me to use it," Elin smiled as he glanced at the red-haired girl with a smile.
The five women were getting along well, but then Delia's concerned voice entered his ears, "Tang, she keeps looking at us, she hates me," the girl whispered as she glanced to the side.
Tang Shaoyang followed her gaze and realized what she talked about. Indeed, Mu Liqiu was aggressively staring at them.
The old lady had gone crazy because of him. The next day after their confrontation, Mu Liqiu wanted to enter the portal. She screamed that she wanted to be strong and beat him so she could free her daughter.
As soon as the new portal formed, the portal tossed out a group of five. Five men came out with tattered clothes, and they screamed on top of their lungs. They seemed to run from something as they kept waving their hands to the air.
It took them some time to realize they had returned to Earth. As soon as they were aware they had returned, the five men cheered loudly. They hugged each other and jumped out.
Such a return surprised the people who were waiting around the portal. Soon the second group returned. The second group was in much better shape. Soon the third group arrived and the portal kept pushing more people.
Tang Shaoyang stood up and called Cao Yuntai, "Gather the people, count the casualties!" The older man nodded and ran back to the portal. He was familiar with the ex-soldiers, so he could recognize who was missing easily.
Tian Donghai's group came out from the portal. His group was in great shape, even his and his team's armor got a big upgrade. Tian Donghai looked for him and soon spotted him.
The young man was about to rush until he noticed the two beastmen followed him. Tang Shaoyang smiled and walked over. He gave the young man a bear hug, "Good job, you bring your team back alive."
Tian Donghai responded to his hug with a pained grunt. The force behind the hug was unexpectedly strong. It hurt the young man's back, "My back hurt, Boss," the poor young man was pleading for his life.
"Oops, sorry," Tang Shaoyang released the young man. As he released the hug, he spotted Yan Sheng. He did the same to Yang Sheng, hugged him but with a considerate strength.
After Yan Sheng's team, Wei Xi's group came out. This time he hugged him pretty hard. The man kept tapping his arm, "You are killing me, Boss! You are killing me!"
Tang Shaoyang grinned ear to ear as he released the man. The next group was Lu An, the guy did not wait for him to come for him. Lu An dashed toward him and pounced on him, "I miss you, Boss!" The young man's voice was very loud that caused them to become the center of attention.
The four main captains had returned, but he had not seen Zhang Mengyao and Kang Xue yet. He saw Kang Xue's brother, Kang Zian had returned. He immediately looked for his wife and his parents.
This made him worried, Zhang Mengyao was the strongest after him, and Lu An. There was no way she failed in the mission.
But soon he was relieved when he saw the last group come out of the portal. Zhang Mengyao and Kang Xue were in the same group with the other three girls, Li Na, Zi Niu, and Zeng Dongmei.
Zhang Mengyao and Kang Xue smiled widely when they looked at Tang Shaoyang. Tang Shaoyang opened his arm, thinking they would come for a hug. That was what the two girls wanted to do until they noticed four beauties behind him.
