"Captain, the ones protecting Goru over there are members of the French Assassination Battalion. I've crossed paths with one of them before, and I'm certain it's them. Should we just take them all out?"
The speaker was Daniel, short in stature but exceptionally sharp and lean. His gaze fixed on the building ahead with a mix of eagerness and ruthlessness. When he raised his head slightly to look at the god-like figure standing before him, his expression instantly shifted to one of reverence and fanaticism. That figure stood as imposing and towering as Mount Tai, majestic enough to inspire awe. His broad shoulders seemed to bear the weight of all the world's responsibilities, as if nothing could crush them—as though those shoulders could steadily prop up the entire sky. Daniel looked at that back with undisguised adoration, his gaze burning like a raging fire.
The figure admired so deeply by Daniel was none other than Xu Lin. At the sincere invitation of General Shane and General Keith, he had personally founded Prussia's first special operations unit: the Special Operations Team. This unit shouldered a special mission, born to execute those arduous and hazardous special assignments. Time flew, and six years had passed since the team's formation. This was their seventy-second mission, yet the difficulty of this operation was unprecedented. Their target this time was General Goru, Marshal Bazaine's deputy—a target standing before them like an insurmountable peak.
