Asphyxiation

Jiang Baimian quietly listened and sincerely suggested, "You should mark out your experts and form a team to scout the area."

She didn't volunteer because this wasn't within the Old Task Force's scope of work. It was already a little risky for them to take the initiative to be 'hired' and deliver the supplies over. However, she could at least exchange for a military exoskeleton and train the team. Furthermore, the danger level was acceptable.

As for forming a reconnaissance team and heading to a clearly strange place while risking their lives for a settlement that had just arrived, it was clearly not something the Old Task Force should do.

A mercenary had to have a mercenary's 'professional ethics.'

If Jiang Baimian were alone, she might've taken on the reconnaissance mission out of interest. However, she was now a team leader. Any order from her would affect the team members' personal safety.

She couldn't be willful.
