Chapter 223: Guards Legion
Hiss!
As soon as he jumped out of the bus, a cold wind blew and Chu Nan could not help but gasp.
Although Central City and the small city of Trenshenko were in the northern hemisphere at the same time and it was winter, the difference in latitude was nearly 30 degrees, causing the temperature to be worlds apart in winter.
When Chu Nan set off from the Central City in the morning, although the temperature was relatively low, it was still more than ten degrees. Now, after two hours of travel, the temperature had already decreased to -37 degrees!
Even if Chu Nan had the Overlord Body and his body’s resistance to temperature far exceeded ordinary people, he still could not resist.
Fortunately, he did not feel cold for long. A square floating shuttle that was clearly the military model of the Federation Army had already flown over from afar.
The shuttle stopped in front of Chu Nan and two fully armed soldiers jumped out. Then, a person dressed as an officer walked out.
Chu Nan turned around and was a little surprised.
“Mr. Hasklovsky, you actually came personally.”
This officer was naturally the personal guard of Marshal Chemekov, who had contacted Chu Nan previously.
Hearing Chu Nan’s words, Hasklovsky smiled.
“You’re a guest personally invited by the Marshal. Of course, we have to treat it seriously.”
“It can’t be…” Chu Nan scratched his head in embarrassment and looked around. He discovered that the nearby area was desolate. Apart from a small house at the stop of the bus shuttle that could be considered a stop for people, there was almost no human habitation. He could not help but feel a little strange,” Why did the Marshal choose to live in such a desolate place? ”
“Because this is the home of the Marshal,” Hasklovsky explained and gestured invitingly. “Come, let’s talk after getting in the car.”
Chu Nan nodded and got into the car.
The two fully armed soldiers also got into the car and sat Chu Nan down.
Looking at the weapons in their hands, Chu Nan moved and felt a little uncomfortable.
“Don’t worry, this is only their mission. Any guest of the Lord Marshal will enjoy this treatment,” Hasklovsky explained.
Chu Nan was even more puzzled.
“The Marshal is a Star-Grade Martial Artist. Could it be that he’s worried that someone will dare to harm him?”
“No one would have such a boring worry.” Hasklovsky shrugged, “But he’s the commander-in-chief of the Federation Army, so… you know.”
“Alright.” Chu Nan could only express his understanding and turn to look out the window.
Outside was the Great Plains of Siberia. The temperature had already reached nearly -40°C. At this moment, it was naturally impossible to see many people outside.
However, this did not mean that this place was barren.
On the contrary, as far as the eye could see, there was a vast needle forest that stretched as far as the eye could see. In the thick snow, it still dyed the vast land green, emitting powerful life force.
Chu Nan had lived in the Aat region of the Purple Cloud Planet since he was young. This was the first time he had seen such a special scene. He immediately felt that his horizons had been broadened. Just this alone was worth it.
Hasklovsky had been observing the expression on Chu Nan’s face. When he saw him staring out of the car in a daze, he could not help but say, “You don’t seem nervous at all?”
“Nervous?” Chu Nan turned around and smiled, “Of course I’m nervous. I want to see the supreme commander of our Federation Army, and he’s one of the eleven Star-Grade Martial Artists. I’m extremely nervous.”
Haskrov shook his head. “But I don’t see you being nervous at all.”
“I’m only desperately suppressing it. If I don’t even have the most basic ability to control myself, I’m afraid I don’t have the qualifications to meet the Marshal.”
Hasklovsky stared at Chu Nan’s eyes and only saw calmness in them. He could not help but nod and praise, “Good.”
The journey was silent.
The military vehicle drove for about half an hour on the vast Siberian Plains. After walking for more than 20 kilometers, it stopped at the foot of two protruding mountains.
At the foot of the mountain to the south, there was a long row of wooden houses connected together, surrounding a small lake at the foot of the mountain. It looked to be the private manor of Marshal Chemekov that Hasklovsky had mentioned.
This was because the cold wind blowing from the north was mostly blocked by two small mountains. The foot of the mountain was still warm.
However, even so, the surface of the lake was already covered in a thick layer of ice. On the ice, there was actually a group of half-naked burly men surrounding each other. It was not a deafening shout.
As soon as the car stopped, Chu Nan jumped out and immediately noticed these strange fellows who were still half-naked in such cold weather.
Noticing Chu Nan’s curious gaze, Hasklovsky smiled and explained, “They’re all boys from the Marshal’s Guards Legion. They usually train themselves like this when they’re free.”
Chu Nan nodded and noticed another aspect.
These bare-chested soldiers were practicing in battle. Their moves looked bold and unrestrained. At first glance, they looked very rough and did not have any exquisite moves.
However, with his powerful data ability, Chu Nan easily discovered that it was precisely such a simple and rough move that could always unleash the strength of these soldiers to the greatest extent, causing every punch and kick of theirs to erupt with extremely powerful power. It easily caused a powerful air explosion, causing the battle to appear extremely intense.
At the same time, Chu Nan also discovered that the bodies of these soldiers were also extremely powerful.
Facing such a powerful punch and kick, they actually did not dodge and only relied on their bodies to endure it.
However, when these fists and feet struck their bodies, although every strike could emit a terrifying muffled sound, they did not seem to be affected at all and still counterattacked extremely bravely.
From this, it could be seen that these soldiers were either all powerful Internal Breaths and had already tempered their bodies to an extremely high level, or they had cultivated a special cultivation method that could specially strengthen their bodies.
No matter what, it meant that these soldiers were all very powerful.
This discovery shocked Chu Nan.
At this moment, there were more than 50 soldiers practicing on the ice. All of them were so powerful that when combined, their combat strength was undoubtedly extremely shocking.
Coupled with various powerful martial techniques, the combat strength they could unleash could only be described as terrifying.
However, on second thought, they were part of the Guards Legion of Marshal Chemekov. They could be considered the elites of the Federation Army. It was normal for them to have such strength.
Beside him, Hasklovsky saw that Chu Nan was staring at the soldiers on the ice without blinking. He had a thought and suddenly smiled, “Are you interested in sparring with them?”
“Ah?” Chu Nan was stunned, “That’s not good…”
“It’s fine. In any case, there’s still some time before the Marshal summons you. It’s boring for you to wait here. Why don’t you spar with them and warm up?”
Chu Nan looked at the soldiers fighting fiercely on the distant ice and was silent for a moment. He suddenly chuckled and rubbed his hands.
“Alright.”
