Taking the Task Force out to Dine!

"Heh heh."

Seeing this, Lu Ting chuckled and patted Price's shoulder, saying, "Price, no need to be so serious. But indeed, there is a significant difference in mindset between soldiers and mercenaries. You all need to adapt quickly in a short time."

"But before that, you first need to remember the three principles of mercenaries!"

"I know this!"

Upon hearing Lu Ting's words, Soap, standing beside Price, quickly gave an answer. With full confidence, he replied, "No nationality, no faith, and no limits!"

During the previous missions of Task Force 141, they had also dealt with mercenaries, so they were already well aware of their code of conduct.

Just never expected that one day, these three principles would also be used by them.

"Um."

When Soap reached this point, the lazy smile on Lu Ting's face was replaced by a serious expression. His gaze swept over all the members of Task Force 141, and he solemnly continued, "These are the three major principles of mercenaries, and they are also the principles you must adapt to."

"I think I don't need to describe to you the brutality of the battlefield, right?! As your leader, I don't want a situation where someone among you loses their precious life because they cannot adapt to these three principles in the future!"

Just as Lu Ting once said, every second on the battlefield is ever-changing. Any situation can arise, and mercenaries from around the world are people who truly lick blood on the edge of a knife.

They do not receive protection from any country or international law. Even if they die, they can only count themselves unlucky.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the principles and regulations set by ordinary armies or special forces are completely inappropriate for mercenaries. If their thinking and actions do not adapt promptly, the consequences in the future will be unimaginable!

As the commander of Task Force 141, Lu Ting naturally thought it best to clarify these matters with them as soon as possible.

And for the members of Task Force 141, they were all clear about this reasoning. Immediately, they solemnly replied, "Understood!"

"Alright!"

After discussing the serious topic, Lu Ting once again showed a smile to them. He first raised his right fist and extended it towards them, saying to all members of Task Force 141, "So, starting today, we are officially establishing the first mercenary squad of the Immortal Arms Group!"

"Also, I have only one requirement for you all, and that is to execute mercenary tasks perfectly. Everyone must come back safe and sound, enjoy the commission you earn in your own lives!"

Upon hearing Lu Ting's words, thinking about no more military rules to restrict them, the prospect of making big money, and being able to do whatever they wanted, why would any member of Task Force 141 have objections?

Immediately under Price's lead, all members of Task Force 141 raised their fists and bumped them heavily with Lu Ting's.

"Guarantee to complete all missions!"

"Living a life of wine, women, and money, here I come!"

"Huah!!"

At this moment, Soap, Yuri, and Roach, three rough guys who were already unrestrained by nature, were even more excited, howling a few times.

At this moment, whether it was Lu Ting or the members of Task Force 141, their eyes were filled with anticipation for the future.

After a brief initial understanding, Lu Ting glanced at his wristwatch, then looked up at the members of Task Force 141 and said, "It's still early now. You can arrange your own activities for the rest of the day. The rest area is on the right side of the first floor of the base. You can choose your rooms there. Dinner will be at 6 PM, and we'll gather here."

"Tonight, we'll head to the nearest town for a meal, consider it a simple welcome ceremony for you all. If you need anything for daily life, make a list in advance. We can buy everything together after dinner. Any questions?"

Just recently, Lu Ting had received a commission of five million dollars from the Chinese Interpol, which, while not a huge amount, was more than enough for these seven men to splurge!

"No problem, Commander!"

After all the members of Task Force 141 responded in unison, they followed his instructions and headed towards the rest area on the right side of the first floor, each beginning to look for their own rooms.

Watching the estate base become lively once more, Lu Ting couldn't help but feel an inexplicable surge of emotion. He had been alone for too long! Now, with new companions, and especially with game protagonists he had once admired, Lu Ting's heart was filled with excitement and nothing but excitement!

Most importantly, those mercenary tasks he had only dared to look at on the dark web from the Chinese International Criminal Police, he could now consider taking them on himself!

Thinking about this, Lu Ting felt quite pleased with himself.

Soon after, he let Task Force 141 choose their rooms on the first floor, while he himself turned and headed upstairs towards his own room.

The afternoon passed in the blink of an eye.

At 5:55 PM,

Five minutes before the appointed gathering time set by Commander Lu Ting, all members of Task Force 141, already changed into casual clothes, were waiting in the living room on the first floor of the estate base.

They could arrive early, but absolutely could not be later than Lu Ting!

Tap, tap, tap.

Soon, with a series of footsteps coming from the staircase, Lu Ting's figure appeared before everyone.

"Commander!"

Seeing this, the members of Task Force 141, who had been lounging lazily on the sofa, immediately stood up one by one and greeted Lu Ting.

"You're here so early?"

Seeing everyone had arrived so promptly, Lu Ting thought he might be late. He glanced at the time but realized it wasn't time yet.

But it didn't matter. After arriving in front of them, Lu Ting glanced over everyone from head to toe and said, "Alright, we're about the same size. The clothes should fit."

After being summoned and materialized here, besides themselves and the camouflage uniforms and high-tech combat gear they wore, the members of Task Force 141 had nothing else.

And naturally, they wouldn't go out for dinner tonight dressed in such equipment.

So Lu Ting had given each of them a set of his own clothes, which seemed quite appropriate now.

"Let's not waste any more time. Let's go."

Since everyone was present, Lu Ting called out to them and headed towards the parking garage outside.

The rest of Task Force 141 followed closely behind.
