Pirates: Awakening of the Divine Religion, I just want to teach and preach Chapter 034

No…that’s not right…

Wayne quickly realized another problem, his eyebrows raised.

Gion’s recognition of him…

From another perspective, isn’t this the favorability in those dating simulation games?

Could it be that this so-called recognition could become his standard for conquest and favorability?

A strange, peculiar glint gradually appeared in Wayne’s eyes.

“Alright, everyone has basically understood Instructor Wayne’s strength. Does anyone else have any doubts about him?”

At this moment, Zephyr smiled and took a step forward, addressing the crowd.

Everyone shook their heads in unison, almost like rattle-drums.

Doberman even shrank his neck, a surge of fear washing over him.

Are you kidding? Those who dared to question are already hanging on the wall. Who would dare to nitpick?

“Very good…”

Zephyr’s smile grew even wider, then he suddenly changed the subject, his eyes becoming stern as he coldly shouted:

“Now, the training camp officially begins!”

“First training: twenty kilometers of weighted running!”

Hiss—

Everyone gasped, hardly believing their ears.

Twenty kilometers with weights?

Is this training?

This is practically asking for their lives!

They looked at Wayne’s gentle smile, then at Teacher Zephyr’s dangerously renewed smile.

A sense of foreboding rose in their hearts simultaneously.

These two instructors… are they devils?

“Run, what are you all doing?”

“This is only twenty kilometers.”

“When I was your age, I could run for three days and three nights with full gear without even panting!”

“Hurry up and run!”

Under the scorching sun of the drill ground, this batch of military academy fresh recruits truly experienced what it meant for hell to be empty and devils to be among men.

The strict chief instructor, like a demon, stood there like a door god, arms crossed.

Once he found someone slacking off, he would unleash a torrent of curses.

Wayne, standing nearby, was also full of black lines, his mouth twitching uncontrollably.

Running for three days and three nights without even panting—wouldn’t that mean he’s already dead?

He shook his head helplessly, pulled out a cigar from his pocket, bit it, and lit it.

However, the next scene he witnessed made his cigar tremble, almost burning his mouth.

Zephyr seemed very dissatisfied with the new recruits’ lap times, suddenly rushing to the nearby gun rack.

He directly grabbed a flintlock pistol and, without even looking, fired at the military cadets.

Bang bang bang—

Bullets continuously exploded into holes at the cadets’ feet, kicking up sand, scaring them so much that their faces instantly turned pale, and they started dancing in place.

“Hurry up and run!”

Zephyr roared furiously, frantically pulling the trigger.

Chased by bullets, the military cadets ran in terror, their legs churning like windmills, scrambling to get ahead.

Wayne: “…”

Half a day quickly passed.

By the time this group of recruits finished the twenty kilometers, dusk had gradually fallen.

As the sun set, the clouds in the distant sky were dyed crimson.

The new recruits lay sprawled across the dusty drill ground, panting heavily.

Their military uniforms were soaked with sweat, leaving behind pale salt crystals.

The drill ground was filled with wails of agony.

Their faces were as pale as death, their lips cracked.

Some even started twitching their legs, their eyes rolling back, making Wayne’s eyelids twitch.

“Isn’t this a bit too much?”

He frowned, weighing the situation in his mind.

Zephyr walked over at this moment, arms crossed, and grinned at the unfortunate group:

“Hmm, not bad, you all passed.”

Hearing this lukewarm evaluation, Doberman and the other new recruits collectively rolled their eyes, almost fainting.

They had practically risked their lives, enduring a hail of bullets, just to complete these twenty kilometers of weighted running.

In the end, in Teacher Zephyr’s eyes, they were only “just passed”?

“Today’s training ends here. Go back to your dorms early, get some good rest, and eat more meat to replenish your nutrition.”

Zephyr casually instructed.

“Ze…Teacher Zephyr, what’s tomorrow’s training content?”

Doberman finally caught his breath, his cracked lips trembling as he asked.

The others also suddenly reacted, looking at the purple-haired uncle before them with faces full of anticipation, even pleading.

Zephyr took in their expressions, puffed out his chest, and proudly said:

“Don’t worry, I won’t repeat the same training content twice.”

Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to be saved, letting out a sigh of relief as if granted a great pardon.

However, Zephyr then suddenly grinned: “Tomorrow is twenty-one kilometers of weighted running.”

Everyone was struck by lightning, their minds instantly going blank.

Wayne couldn’t help but cover his face.

You guys celebrated too early…

“That’s it.” Zephyr waved his hand and turned to leave decisively.

Watching that tall, sturdy figure disappear, the military cadets gradually came to their senses.

A hint of fear slowly spread through their eyes.

They could already imagine how miserable their military academy life would be from now on.

“Um… Instructor Wayne, can you please intercede for us with Teacher Zephyr, and persuade him, the elder…”

At this moment, a new recruit said to Wayne with a tearful face.

His words immediately received approval from the others.

“That’s right, Instructor Wayne, you’re Teacher Zephyr’s adjutant, he’ll definitely take your advice.”

“This amount of training is too terrifying, it could kill us!”

“Twenty kilometers of weighted running, we’ve already given it our all…”

“If you keep increasing the load, we simply won’t be able to hold on…”

…

Doberman and most of the new recruits looked at Wayne with pleading eyes, trying to use emotional persuasion.

In their opinion, Lieutenant Colonel Wayne was not much older than them and would be better able to understand their difficulties.

And with Lieutenant Colonel Wayne’s demeanor, such a gentle person, how could he possibly watch his students suffer?

“Hmm, you all make very good points,” Wayne nodded.

There’s hope!

The new recruits’ eyes lit up, and hope ignited in their hearts.

However, Wayne’s next sentence directly plunged them into despair.

“But I’m sorry, I won’t intercede for you.”

“Why?!”

They all wailed in unison.

Wayne exhaled a puff of smoke, narrowing his eyes with a faint smile:

“Who do you think suggested this twenty-kilometer weighted running training to Teacher Zephyr?”

The military cadets froze, then seemed to realize something, and their gazes towards Wayne gradually became filled with terror.

So…you’re the devil!
