Global Towers: Starting With The SSS-Rank Talent, God-Tier Extraction

672 Forming the Sharp Knife Squad

“I think this is a good idea. I want to join the sharp knife squad!” Murong Xue’s interest was piqued.

“I’m also quite interested in it. Why don’t I arrange for a vice-captain to take over Second Squad? I’ll join the sharp knife squad.” Ye Yifan suggested.

“I’m also very interested,” Hans Wilson said.

Allen Smith had been keeping his head down and not participating in the discussion. He was also interested when he learned that Liu Yan was planning to form a sharp knife squad.

Derek Dole could not help but ask, “Captain, when do you plan to form the vanguards? What level of experts do you have, and when do you plan to start?”

The rest of the people also looked at Liu Yan curiously, curious about his decision.

Liu Yan faced the curious crowd and said, “Immediately. I plan to form the vanguards now. We’ll take action tomorrow!”

Hearing this, everyone was surprised. They didn’t expect Liu Yan to be so decisive. He wanted to form the sharp knife squad now and start the operation tomorrow.

However, after thinking about it carefully, everyone understood. After all, the situation was urgent, and they didn’t have much time left. They only had 25 days.

Although 25 days wasn’t a short time, it wasn’t a long time either. Naturally, they had to make good use of time and take action immediately.

When Murong Xue heard this, her interest was piqued. “Sure, it’s good to act immediately. I want to participate. You’ll let me participate this time, right?”

Murong Xue had long been bored out of her mind. She did not want to gather resources around the territory anymore.

Yesterday, he had explored the surrounding area, but for the sake of safety, he had only explored the nearby area. Therefore, he had not encountered any enemies, powerful fierce beasts, or any dangers. There had been no battle, so it was boring.

Now that he knew that Liu Yan wanted to form a sharp knife squad to explore the outer perimeter…

It was especially so when he was going to form a team immediately and take action the next day. Murong Xue was interested.

Liu Yan continued, “However, for the first, I plan to send the best of the best only. After confirming the situation over there, I’ll send the rest of the best.”

The faces of the experts, who were initially excited, instantly darkened.

Liu Yan only planned to use the top experts for this first exploration.

As a result, the weaker experts naturally had no chance of participating in the first operation.

However, they could understand Liu Yan’s thoughts. After all, the outer region might be full of danger.

This Wind Barrier was incomparably dangerous, and all sorts of powerful fierce beasts, monsters, and alien races emerged in an endless stream.

The exploration this time was completely unknown, and he didn’t know what kind of danger it would be.

Under such circumstances, it was undoubtedly the safest to use the strongest top-tier experts for the first exploration.

The top-tier experts were stronger and less likely to get into a dangerous situation. The sharp knife squad would have fewer people, making it more convenient for them to move.

When Murong Xue heard Liu Yan’s words, she had a bad feeling.

Her 7-star combat strength and she was an expert in the team. She was indeed not considered a top-tier expert. There were a few people in Origin Team who were stronger than her.

“Liu Yan, what’s the meaning of this? You won’t let me participate? You’re doing this on purpose, right?” Murong Xue couldn’t help but glare at Liu Yan.

The rest were also watching the show. They knew that Murong Xue had been following Liu Yan for a long time. She was one of the earliest followers of Liu Yan. Therefore, she was close to Liu Yan. Naturally, Murong Xue wouldn’t feel a certain amount of fear towards Liu Yan as they did.

Liu Yan glanced at Murong Xue as he explained, “I’m not you. Why would I target you for no reason? This operation is indeed too dangerous. Only top experts can go. If you want to go, wait for us to come back. I’ll take you to the next operation.”

Liu Yan and Murong Xue explained briefly before turning to the crowd. “As I said, only top-tier experts can go on this first exploration mission. It is the safest way. For this mission, only top-tier experts with 8-star combat strength and above can go.”

When the experts heard this, they thought it made sense.

8-star and above combat strength were top experts in Team Origin. In the entire team, the number of people who had reached such combat strength could be counted on one’s fingers.

In Team Origin, there were only six people who had an 8-star combat strength and above, including Liu Yan.

Liu Yan had 11-star combat strength, and the other five had 8-star combat strength. Of course, one of them had broken through to 9-star today, and that was Allen Smith.

Although the experts wanted to join this operation, they knew it was dangerous. Only the best experts would be safe. They also understood Liu Yan’s concerns, so they did not say much.

“Then, including Captain Liu, there will be a total of six people participating. Six top-tier experts are strong enough. At the same time, there are fewer people in the squad. It will indeed be much more convenient to move.” Sun Wen agreed.

Even though Sun Wen wanted to participate, he knew he was not strong enough. It would be dangerous for him to participate.

Liu Yan was looking at Xu Han, Ye Yifan, Hans Wilson, Luo Wei, and Allen Smith.

Among these five people, other than Allen Smith, who had broken through to 9-star today, the other four were all 8-star. They were the top experts on the team.

Among the five, Luo Wei and Allen Smith followed Liu Yan directly and listened to his orders.

The other three were all team leaders with responsibilities.

Liu Yan said, “The three of you can leave the tasks to your vice-captains. The team will be led by the vice-captains. Anyway, the main task is to collect resources and guard the area. There aren’t many combat missions. They should be enough.”

“Alright.”

“Sure.”

“No problem.”

Ye Yifan and the other two responded.

Liu Yan nodded slightly. “You guys get ready. Tomorrow, the five of you will follow me to explore the outer perimeter.”

Liu Yan looked at the remaining experts and said, “Now, let’s discuss the plan for the five squads to collect resources.”

As Liu Yan spoke, he took out the map that Sun Wen and Derek Doyle had made. It recorded the distribution of the resource points in the original habitat of the Whirlwind Turtles around the territory.

“There are a lot of resource points. We must try to collect as many as possible, but we also have our priorities. Which resources should we prioritize, and which resources should we collect more?” Sun Wen analyzed.

The rest of the people also nodded slightly in agreement.

There were many resource points around them. They would want to collect all of them if possible. However, they had limited time.

It was especially so under the current circumstances. Time was extremely precious. In these twenty-five days, not only would experts like them have to take the risk to explore other places and look for opportunities.
