Everyone was just very curious, where could Gu Xiaoxi go at such a critical moment!

Clearly, she had no intention of sharing with everyone.

Gu Xiaoxi contacted Jing Rui, hoping that this time, she could take part in the battle to strangle the Rat King.

Jing Rui, however, said with difficulty, "Xiao Xi, you guys are newcomers. This mission wasn’t supposed to fall to you. But you said you have a way to kill those two rats. I will apply to my superiors right now."

"Great! I’ll wait for your good news!" Gu Xiaoxi was not in a rush.

While waiting, Gu Xiaoxi led her team to hold a temporary meeting in the conference room.

At the same time, they also got to know their teammates.

Willy was tall and formidable; the axe in his hands was clearly no ordinary weapon. Although it wasn’t a divine artifact, it could be compared to a magic artifact.

It was a very handy weapon. With that axe, his attack power instantly surged by half.

Kang Wei’s poison was indeed formidable, and that little horn was his own invention, which could rapidly spread his poison.

Danmai’s magic had a very good supportive role in the previous battles. Quietly in the background, he gave everyone a lot of support and help.

Although others didn’t know, Gu Xiaoxi was very clear about it.

At that time, when she was healing others with spiritual energy, she felt the magical healing elements during the physical strength exhaustion. She herself had benefited!

Jason was a person with strong inner strength, his power was not inferior to Jing Haoran. He wielded only a 30-meter bayonet. Pure physical attack, yet he could hold his own.

Only Mason was still a stranger to everyone.

When everyone looked at him, Mason explained with embarrassment, "I’m a cyborg!

I was badly damaged in a car accident, and scientists picked me up and gave me a whole new body.

Of course, eighty percent of the power I can use comes from electricity.

For example, laser slash and sonar slash are very strong high-damage abilities. "

"No wonder it’s Xuan State; their technology is so advanced," Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t help exclaiming. At least, turning a dying person into a cyborg was not yet possible in Liuli Country.

After getting to know them, Gu Xiaoxi found that compared to them, Yun Xiao, Jing Haoran, and Tang Yisheng were slightly less in physical strength and power.

If it were a one-on-one duel, Mason and the others might not necessarily win against Yun Xiao and the rest.

Thus, this war had eliminated many people, and only the truly strongest had remained.

"I still prefer to act in groups. Before the battle, make good deployment of team members, and first let everyone understand how to cooperate!

" Gu Xiaoxi looked at Yun Xiao and explained to everyone, "Nature series, ice ability user.

She can condense the water vapor in the air into ice, thus forming an ice formation to attack the enemy.

She can also use Ice Vine to control the enemy for a short period.

However, she has a weakness in physical strength.

I hope someone can cooperate with her and protect her safety. "

After Gu Xiaoxi finished speaking, everyone was startled for a moment. They had seen Yun Xiao’s abilities, and although her physical endurance was not very strong, her ability to hold out until the end in the recent battle showed that she was not that weak!

Compared to protecting a woman, big fellows like Willy were better suited, as well as Jason with his profound inner strength.

"I’ll do it!" Jason was the first to raise his hand, smiling at Yun Xiao, "I like working with beautiful girls. Man and woman together, the work’s not as tiring, right?"

"You volunteered, oh! Now I’ve handed the only beauty in our team over to you," Gu Xiaoxi also said seriously.

"OK!" Jason nodded, of course knowing that Gu Xiaoxi was serious.

Gu Xiaoxi then looked at Jing Haoran, "Who do you want to cooperate with?"

Jing Haoran looked at Kang Wei with a mischievous smile, "Mouth-Water Chicken, want to pair up with me? Buddy will protect you!"

"Who are you calling Mouth-Water Chicken! Believe it or not, I’ll poison you to death."

"Ha! I’m so scared! Come on! I’ll let you do a strip dance in front of everyone!" As he spoke, Jing Haoran’s eyes immediately turned red, scaring Kang Wei into quickly shutting up, "Stop it! We’re having a meeting now. I’ll pair up, but you can’t call me nicknames anymore."

"I’m calling you that because every time you spit at the enemy, yet you won’t let people call you. If you don’t want to be in my group, I’ll team up with Mason," Jing Haoran said with a mischievous smile.

These days, he had been teasing Kang Wei with those eyes.

Kang Wei utterly despised him for it. But then again, Kang Wei didn’t want him to team up with someone else. If the two of them ganged up on him, how would he continue to survive?

"I agree to be in a group with him, but, captain, can you tell him to stop teasing people?" Kang Wei felt so wronged.

Gu Xiaoxi glared at Jing Haoran, "Stop it. If you bully your teammates again in the future, see how I deal with you."

Jing Haoran pouted. Well, who made him fear Gu Xiaoxi!

Just at that moment, Danmai raised his hand first, "I want to be with Che Junqing. His Thunder and Lightning Ability can combine better with my magic to exert greater power."

At this point, everyone turned their gaze towards Willy and Danmai.

"Oh! Sneaking around behind the scenes, huh?" Tang Yisheng said admiringly.

"Then it’s settled for this team. Who else will team up with Tang Yisheng?" Gu Xiaoxi asked again.

It came down to Willy and Mason.

Clearly, Willy wanted to be on Gu Xiaoxi’s team, while Mason was undecided; his fire ability was strong, yet entirely useless in sync with his own.

"Mason will be with me. I have faith in your Laser Strike!" Gu Xiaoxi declared earnestly.

Immediately, Willy felt some disappointment, as Gu Xiaoxi had not chosen him. Thus, he had no choice but to pair up with Tang Yisheng.

"Willy, what teammates need from each other is willingness and cooperation. If you’re unwilling to team up with Tang Yisheng, we can arrange a different partner for you. Kang Wei, you and Jing Haoran will split up. Willy, you protect Kang Wei and try to coordinate."

"Jing Haoran will team up with Tang Yisheng. Although you both are special ability users, this might place you at a disadvantage against the enemy. But with one controlling and the other slaying, a good coordination could make you invincible."

Tang Yisheng and Jing Haoran had no objections; after all, it was all about combat no matter what.

Teams were formed merely to enhance cooperation and understanding among members.

Having finalized the team arrangements, Gu Xiaoxi’s expression turned serious, "This grouping is only temporary. I hope that each pair will cooperate closely. Teammates should support each other. If anyone feels the team distribution is unsatisfactory, we can adjust it later."

"Yes!"

Since Gu Xiaoxi had made a decision that didn’t negatively affect anyone, naturally no one opposed.

It was then that Jing Rui’s call came through.

"Headquarters has agreed to let you all go together and assigned you a helicopter. We hope you’ll perform well this time. But safety comes first!" Jing Rui said.

Gu Xiaoxi nodded, smiled, and hung up the phone.

She looked at her teammates sternly, "Our target this time is the Rat King. The danger is undoubtedly great, but if successful, we will earn 3 billion in rewards. In the future, we’ll have a certain status within the International Alliance. Do you all have confidence?"

"Yes!" Hearing about the rewards, everyone was tempted, their voices were raised a notch.

"Then cooperate well and follow my commands!" Gu Xiaoxi stood up, cheering and encouraging her team members.

Afterward, she led the team swiftly onto the helicopter.

Previously, when Ya had taught her dagger techniques, he had explained the characteristics of the Rat King.

The two Rat Kings were hard to kill because their skeletons and fur had been enhanced with a special serum.

Plus, they had learned a bit of cultivation technique, which significantly increased their speed and reaction abilities.

To deal with the Rat Kings, they must first be restrained, then quickly find and exploit their weaknesses to kill them.

However, after several days of testing,

The International Alliance had tried poison, electricity, heavy weapons, fire, and electrocution, but none had managed to kill them.

In truth, she also had no confidence.

She didn’t know whether her dagger could truly kill the two giant rats in one strike.

But without trying, how would she know?

The International Alliance, using sticky trackers, had been continuously tracking the two Rat Kings.

When Gu Xiaoxi arrived at the battlefield, there were already two teams trying to take down the Rat Kings.

Despite a long bombardment, the two giant rats still managed to escape.

In the end, they had no choice but to give up.

Huo Jin and Bai Yi were seasoned members of the International Alliance, each leading their own teams.

After a fierce battle and the depletion of their weapons and ammunition without killing the two Rat Kings, they were not only frustrated but also hopping mad.

When they saw Gu Xiaoxi’s arrival, they couldn’t help but display a touch of mockery, "We couldn’t handle them. And they’re sending newbies."

Without a second thought, Huo Jin looked at Gu Xiaoxi with disdain and said, "Are you here to die?"

Gu Xiaoxi clearly sensed the other’s contemptuous gaze and frowned, "We’re here to provide support."

"Has the International Alliance run out of people? Sending a new team for support. Are you that new captain?" Huo Jin’s expression was even more scornful.
