Another two months passed after news of Yuan's presumed death spread throughout the military.
Because of the incident, the Scorpion Squad had become one of the most hated squads in the entire military and were constantly harassed and bullied by other soldiers, particularly those aligned with General Mei.
At first, almost no one was willing to stand up for them. However, as time passed, more and more soldiers from General Gu's side began stepping in to protect them.
Whenever someone confronted the Scorpion Squad, the encounter almost always devolved into a heated argument or outright brawl.
Although Yuan was still a new soldier, he had already earned a favorable reputation among his peers, largely because he frequently helped others during gathering missions—work that most soldiers considered tedious and burdensome.
