The Strongest Sentinel (20): Why does he feel that Gu Juntian particularly likes to kill mutated beasts?

Not only was Zhou Qinghao shocked, but the sentinel who was having their mental strength organized by Gu Juntian, as well as Tang Chen who was following Zhou Qinghao, were also very shocked.

The guide invited the sentinel to the training ground to fight; this was truly unheard of.

You should know that a Guide’s body was like that of an ordinary person, while a Sentinel’s body had undergone enhancements. Without using weapons, even if a Guide gave their all to fight a Sentinel, the Sentinel might not even feel it.

Guides and sentinels, how could they fight?

A few people looked at Gu Juntian together, and Gu Juntian slowly calmed down.

He and Zhou Qinghao really couldn’t afford to fight.

He currently only had the physical strength of a D-level sentinel. Unless he used his mental power, he absolutely could not win against Zhou Qinghao in a fight.

As for using mental power…

As soon as Zhou Qinghao appeared, his mental power wrapped around him and couldn’t be pulled back, so what was the point of fighting?

Was he willing to fight?

Even if he was willing, they had both formed a mental bond. If they really started fighting, it would just end in mutual destruction. Why bother?

He had just crossed over and wanted to fight with Zhou Qinghao to see who was stronger, but after choosing to be a guide, he couldn’t fight with Zhou Qinghao anymore.

It was quite a pity.

Tomorrow, when they go to the surface, let’s catch and kill the mutated beasts.

Gu Juntian said, “I was joking, Qinghao, you look really good right now.”

Zhou Qinghao like this, really got better looking the more you saw him.

Zhou Qinghao should not be covered in blood; he should be wearing a white robe, standing tall and dignified.

Zhou Qinghao could hear the deep admiration in Gu Juntian’s words. The mental power Gu Juntian clung to him with and the unwavering gaze he fixed on him also indicated that Gu Juntian really liked him this way.

The laser work wasn’t in vain.

Tomorrow, when he leads the team from Base One to the new base, many people would probably be shocked when they see his face.

But he was not even afraid of dying, so how could he be afraid of this?

In fact, there was no need to wait until the next day; by that evening, the people at Base One were already starting to be shocked.

The media under Zhou Qinghao directly published Zhou Qinghao’s current appearance on the front page.

“Surprise! This is what the Commander-in-Chief really looks like!”

“For the sake of the guide, the commander-in-chief angrily ‘underwent plastic surgery’!”

“Someone looks like the Commander-in-Chief? It turns out he is…”

……

Zhou Qinghao looked at these headlines with a confused expression.

In the past, the media center belonging to the elite controlled all the media. Although he also established his own media outlet to voice his opinions, hardly anyone paid attention.

In order to get the public to read the news they published, he instructed his subordinate media to use clickbait headlines as much as possible and even allowed them to use him as a topic.

In the past, they had published news articles like “Zhou Qinghao is not wearing clothes, hurry and look,” but the actual situation was that his clothes were torn by a beast while he was fighting it.

At that time, he didn’t think much of it, but now he felt a bit uncomfortable.

Did Gu Juntian also see these news articles?

Looking further down, Zhou Qinghao saw a report related to Gu Juntian.

“All the sentinels unanimously agree—he is the perfect guide!”

“The Commander-in-Chief’s Rivals Are Increasing, He Can Only…”

“How Strong is a Super S-level Guide? Let Us Uncover the Secrets!”

……

News related to Gu Juntian became more normal, and they even used him as an example…

Those people didn’t dare to offend Gu Juntian, but they weren’t afraid of him, right?

Gu Juntian saw Zhou Qinghao constantly looking at the communication terminal and once again pinned him down: “You have such great energy, want to go again?”

Zhou Qinghao’s body stiffened, and he immediately said, “It’s time to sleep.”

Gu Juntian, however, was full of fighting spirit: “Let’s do it again!”

Zhou Qinghao always felt that Gu Juntian’s current physical reaction was quite similar to the reaction he had when he was shouting about wanting to fight him.

However, he soon had no time to think about it anymore.

Gu Juntian cheated!

Using mental power to adjust his senses did indeed make him feel better, but this way, he really had no time to think about anything else…

The next day, Zhou Qinghao led tens of thousands of people, swaggering out of Base One.

These tens of thousands of people were those who were still under his command at Base One, along with their families.

Mother Gu and her colleagues were all inside.

Those who wanted to follow him to the new base were naturally not just these people. In fact, after the news was released yesterday, many civilians applied to go to the new base.

But he couldn’t take too many people at once, so he was planning to take these people over first and come back next time to take others.

He still had several decades to live, so there was plenty of time. He could take his time.

When Zhou Qinghao and the others left, the armed forces personnel appeared. They followed from a distance but didn’t dare to get close or obstruct them at all.

Nowadays, the outdoor environment was poor, the magnetic field was chaotic, and signal transmission iwas prone to problems. Between bases, if optical cables were not laid, it was impossible to transmit information in real-time.

People who operated away from the base, if they were too far from the base, would also be unable to connect to the base’s network.

Gu Juntian, Zhou Qinghao, and Tang Chen followed behind the team. Taking advantage of still being able to connect to Base One’s network, Tang Chen was reading the news from the media center: “The media center says Zhou Qinghao took people away from Base One, and the armed forces are escorting them all the way… Turns out they were following us from a distance to escort us! Hahaha!”

The sentinels around Tang Chen couldn’t help but laugh either.

After their commander-in-chief’s spiritual sea was confirmed to be fine, they weren’t afraid of the armed forces at all!

Their mental strength had been refined by Gu Juntian, and now they were in particularly good condition, even in the mood to joke and laugh.

Zhou Qinghao didn’t joke with them but instead looked at Gu Juntian: “Juntian, do you want to go sightseeing nearby? I can take you.”

Since Gu Juntian left the underground city, he had been staring intently at everything around him.

Zhou Qinghao understood his behavior very well; it was Gu Juntian’s first time leaving the underground city, so it was perfectly normal for him to be curious about everything around him.

Their group was too large and had spoiled the scenery. If Gu Juntian wanted to see something different, he could take Gu Juntian to another place.

Gu Juntian said, “Let’s go to the front of the line.”

Zhou Qinghao didn’t hesitate: “Okay.”

Nowadays, the outside world was very dangerous, and the air here was not suitable for ordinary people to breathe.

Therefore, the vast majority of ordinary people would never leave the underground city in their entire lives.

If they really needed to go to the ground, they needed to wear protective suits or take specialized isolation vehicles.

At this moment, the ordinary people in their team were all sitting in some large vehicles, quietly observing everything around them through the car windows.

This world was too beautiful for them.

They were seeing such a vast space for the first time, seeing so many green plants for the first time.

Many people, while watching, suddenly bursted into tears.

Mother Gu just kept crying; she had lived for forty years, and it was her first time leaving the underground city.

So this was what it was like outside, incredibly vast and boundless.

Someone quietly said, “Looking at the outside world, I suddenly feel that the troubles I encountered before are nothing.”

Someone else said, “Yeah, I used to feel really bad, but now I think that discomfort wasn’t a big deal at all.”

“If I could go outside and get some sun, that would be great. That way, my life would be worth it…”

……

They were chatting when they saw Zhou Qinghao riding a motorcycle, zooming past them, with Gu Juntian sitting behind him, not wearing protective gear.

They were really envious…

Gu Juntian wasn’t wearing a protective suit; Zhou Qinghao wanted him to wear one, but he refused.

He had mental power and could use it to block external harm. Why wear protective gear?

In fact, even if he didn’t use his mental power to isolate himself, nothing from the outside could harm him.

His body, after all, belonged to a D-level sentinel!

Zhou Qinghao didn’t force Gu Juntian to wear the protective suit.

Ordinary people exposed to the wilderness environment would indeed suffer some harm, but it took a whole day of exposure to be fatal.

He would always keep an eye on Gu Juntian. Even if Gu Juntian ran out of mental power and the protection was insufficient, he could still bring Gu Juntian back in time.

The bike that Zhou Qinghao rode was called a motorcycle, but it was still very different from the motorcycles in history.

It was bigger and faster.

Driving this car, Zhou Qinghao quickly led Gu Juntian through the entire team, reaching the front of the line.

There was an advance team arranged by Zhou Qinghao clearing the way here.

Many mutated plants were toxic and could block the way due to their large size, so they needed to be cleared out. Occasionally, mutated beasts would come over, trying to hunt humans, and these mutated beasts also needed to be killed.

Mutated beasts, some were very intelligent, but there were also some that were completely brainless.

Rodent mutant beasts were very smart; they would have run far away upon seeing such a large troop. However, insect mutant beasts would rush over without a care if they caught a whiff of “food.”

“They’re killing mutated beasts up ahead, it’s a bit bloody. Let’s go check out another place,” Zhou Qinghao suggested to Gu Juntian.

Gu Jun said, “I’m not going anywhere else; I’m going to kill the mutated beast.”

Zhou Qinghao doubted he had heard wrong: “You are a guide…”

“I am going to kill the mutant beast.” Gu Juntian spoke again, using his mental power to suppress Zhou Qinghao, then jumped off the motorcycle and ran towards a mutant beast not far away.

Zhou Qinghao was a step behind and saw that the mutated beast had already died at Gu Juntian’s hands.

Gu Juntian used his mental power to directly crush the mutated beast to death.

After killing the mutated beast, Gu Juntian turned to Zhou Qinghao and said, “See, I can kill mutated beasts. I want to go kill mutated beasts.”

Standing next to the dead mutated beast, Gu Juntian looked incredibly radiant.

Moreover, Zhou Qinghao noticed that Gu Juntian really enjoyed killing mutated beasts.

Since Gu Juntian liked it, he definitely wouldn’t stop him. Anyway, with him watching from the side, Gu Juntian wouldn’t be in any trouble.

Seeing that Zhou Qinghao did not stop him, Gu Juntian eagerly ran towards the next mutated beast.

At first, he practiced by killing low-level beasts. Soon, he found killing low-level beasts too easy and not thrilling enough, so he started targeting mid-level beasts and even tried using various weapons.

Gu Juntian discovered that he had no particular affinity for firearms and preferred to use cold weapons to slay mutated beasts.

So refreshing, really so refreshing!

If it weren’t for the D-level sentinel’s body not being able to take it, he could keep chopping away!

After getting tired, Gu Juntian returned to Zhou Qinghao’s side and then asked, “Am I handsome?”

Zhou Qinghao didn’t hesitate: “Handsome.”

The people in the vanguard unit responsible for exterminating the mutated beasts also secretly thought to themselves that he was cool.

The vanguard forces bore a lot of pressure, so they were composed of high-level sentinels with stable mental fortitude.

Right now, the most mentally stable sentinels under Zhou Qinghao were those who had undergone mental conditioning by Gu Juntian.

Therefore, there were many sentinels in the advance team whom Gu Juntian helped to sort out their spiritual seas, and they were all very grateful to him.

Seeing Zhou Qinghao bring Gu Juntian over, one by one, they all wanted to perform well in front of Gu Juntian, letting him see their heroic figures in killing the mutated beasts.

As a result, Gu Juntian took the lead in killing their mutated beasts.

They admired Gu Jun’s heroic figure as he killed the mutated beast for half a day.

At first, Gu Juntian wasn’t very skilled at killing mutated beasts; he could only rely on his strong mental power to do so.

But soon, he began to find the weaknesses of the mutated beasts, and his actions in killing them became increasingly proficient.

He really didn’t look like a guide at all; he looked more like a sentinel.

When Gu Juntian was resting, he discovered that he could use his mental power to make his body recover faster. The key point was that after recovery, his body could become even stronger!

This was too good! Gu Juntian quickly rested and then rushed out again.

Zhou Qinghao looked a bit dumbfounded from behind.

He had been killing beats for twenty years, and for the previous twenty years, he spent half of his time on the ground.

But he himself didn’t have much liking for killing mutated beasts; if possible, he even didn’t want to kill them.

Gu Juntian was different; how did he think Gu Juntian particularly enjoyed killing mutated beasts?

Moreover, Gu Juntian’s progress was too fast!

Gu Juntian also possessed powerful mental strength… It wouldn’t be long before he killed S-level beasts.

Zhou Qinghao suddenly realized that Gu Juntian was more suitable to be his successor than Xiang Tiange and Tang Chen…

What successor? This was his partner!

Wasn’t it just a ten-year age difference? It was no big deal.

He just needed to take good care of himself!
