Flashy Adventurer System : Show Off to Get Stronger! - Chapter 869

Chapter 869: Performance Review (2)
The recordings of the next few units were, once again, sleepers.

Not only were their objectives less important than those of the Valenzia Strike Force, but their elites were also noticeably weaker, and their commanders didn’t stand out in terms of combat prowess or leadership abilities, though this was precisely the reason why they were assigned to less critical missions in the first place.

Nonetheless, they successfully completed their assigned tasks with an impressive record of less than three hundred casualties per unit.

Kirov’s attack on the Phaskalda Region’s capital was the only exciting recording among those of the next eight regions.

Even the attacks on Fanfir and Deltra, both high-ranked regions, turned out to be dull to watch.

The combat styles of the units assigned to these regions centered around two main concepts: caution and efficiency.

The Kirov Unit, on the other hand, had lots of eyes on them.

With Commander Hakkin’s unexpected death at the hands of Alexander Aphelion, other commanders began to doubt whether former Vice Commander Kirov could lead the Hakkin elites as effectively as the deceased commander had, especially the old heads who had known and respected Hakkin well.

While they were well aware of Kirov’s combat prowess, ranked third among all vice commanders, they knew he lacked Hakkin’s talent for leadership and fearlessness.

Moreover, he wasn’t strong enough to turn the tide of battle like Viper and Feather could—at least, not in the past.

This was why Feng, Tigren, and Grover, doubted the rumors that Kirov had already surpassed ‘Hakkin the Mad’.

However, they were also too prideful to find out for themselves.

They would certainly not lower themselves to visit the headquarters of a half-baked unit like the Black Dawn.

Hence, despite some commanders already having a rough estimate of the Kirov Unit’s monstrous prowess from a week of cross-training with them, the unit’s performance still shocked the majority of them, especially the geezer trio.

The Kirov Unit was like an unstoppable force of nature in the Phaskalda capital, effortlessly dismantling their opponents’ formations in less than ten seconds and wiping them out.

The remaining Phaskalda heroes, titled adventurers, and champions who dared stand in Kirov’s and Vice Commander Fino’s way were slaughtered like chickens facing a vicious coyote.

None of them, nor their armies, lasted more than a minute against the Kirov Unit’s storm-like assault.

In fact, even some of the previously unknown captains from the former Hakkin elites managed to make a name for themselves in the organization by defeating simulated champions and titled adventurers.

Nonetheless, the ways of the three stubborn old fools were already long fixed.

It was difficult for them to fully acknowledge the Kirov Unit’s strength despite the solid proof presented before their eyes.

The three elderly commanders found some solace in the thought that their enemies were merely from the seventh-ranked Phaskalda Region, believing that the Kirov Unit wouldn’t be able to maintain the same level of performance when faced with the combined pressure of competent opponents, high-risk situations, and circumstances critical to the success of the unsealing operation as a whole.

Soon, the segment depicting the fall of Hawkridge City, the capital of the Deltra Region, to Hadean Varsa’s hands came to an end.

But instead of the recording of the Yon Augenn Strike Force playing next, the holographic screen turned blue—indicating that the recording had been temporarily paused.

This naturally confused the elites, as most of them were eager to see how Yon Augenn City was captured.

“Everyone, I apologize for the interruption,” Sanada said, emerging from the void. “As you all just saw, we’ve underestimated Commander Kirov and his elites. I will make a few appropriate changes and announce them later.”

The old man then disappeared back into the void, and the recording resumed playing.

The elites, captains, and commanders simply nodded before turning their attention back to the recording, where Chaos and his men moved like ghosts, darting beneath the legs and feet of the monstrous creatures.

The Chaos elites soon arrived at the gates, not even bothering to get into formation.

Vice Commander Feather effortlessly created a massive gap for his men to exploit with a single swing of his enormous greatsword, which was even larger than Darky and Murky yet likely weighed less than the twins.

This single breach was enough for Chaos and his men to break through completely, entering the city through the west gate, near the Hawkin Mansion.

The guards were now torn between pursuing the infiltrating terrorists or defending the gates from the advancing tide of monsters.

If they chose to give chase, the monstrous creatures would undoubtedly wreak havoc on the citizens of Yon Augenn—something they simply couldn’t allow.

Guard Captain Horwell was thus forced to make a decisive choice: defend the gates against the monster tide and allow the 2,500 terrorist elites to run amok inside the city.

Hadean Varsa rarely targeted civilians.

The WAA understood that Hadean Varsa wasn’t as monstrous as the world perceived them to be and shamelessly planned to exploit this aspect of the organization, despite having painted them as the blackest of villains.

This was how the Chaos Unit managed to smoothly make their way to the Hawkin Mansion without a single casualty.

Nonetheless, guard squadrons—a mix of elites and standard ones—popped up from time to time to block their path.

This was where everyone’s attention was captured by the Chaos elites’ chaotic fighting style.

Not a single one of them seemed to care about formations, focusing solely on killing the opponents or groups of opponents in front of them.

There were even times when warriors, archers, and mages shared the same targets.

Their fighting style appeared clumsy and disorganized at first glance, relying purely on their individual strengths to carve through enemy ranks.

However, the more observant elites noticed something entirely different.

The Chaos elites couldn’t be farther from the word “disorganized”.

No.

Soon, as the recording crystal shifted to a bird’s eye view, everyone’s eyes widened.

The Chaos elites were already renowned within the organization for their might, but who would’ve thought their skirmishing prowess was even more fearsome?

Even Shye couldn’t fully comprehend how they were managing to advance like a raging hurricane despite being a chaotic mess before the angle changed.
