Celestial Queen: Revenge Is Sweet When You’re A Zillionaire Heiress

Chapter 1540:

“What’s the issue? You claimed you could handle it, didn’t you? Now, you’re struggling with missing a single meal?” Her eyes flashed with disdain.

“I have no patience for slackers. Either leave or adapt to my rules and fend for yourselves!”

It was merely about foraging for their own food. In a real conflict, no one would ensure a soldier was consistently well-fed. Although these soldiers were undoubtedly strong and talented, they still held a naive understanding of military life. They thought being a soldier was just about handling weapons and engaging in combat, not yet grasping the broader skills required of an exceptional soldier.

Harlee finished speaking and, ignoring the reactions of her squad, lowered her head to continue enjoying her meal. Each of her soldiers had undergone intense training, and the top-secret mission scheduled for the recruits in three months was crucial.

Harlee was convinced that a nation like Breezeland, known for its cunning and deceitful tactics, would never allow a fair competition. Furthermore, according to Kareem, the Breezeland military plan was designed to disadvantage the Multitopian military by pitting them against advanced technology. If she wasn’t strict with her squad, how could she honor the sacrifices of their fallen heroes?

Noticing Harlee’s disregard, the male soldiers’ expressions darkened, their eyes reflecting resentment and rebellion.

Lionel observed the mood among the troops, seeing that Harlee and the squad leaders paid no heed to the soldiers’ discontent. He sighed quietly. He went to the food supplies and returned the cacti the female soldiers had gathered to them. He said to Rosie in a firm tone, “Ms. Sanderson declared that the finders of the food keep it. So, it’s your team’s decision on how to distribute these cacti.”

Despite their hunger and grievances against Harlee, the male soldiers refrained from disputing with the female soldiers over the food. The female soldiers’ haul was modest, likely insufficient even for themselves.noveldrama

Rosie accepted the cacti. Her objective was to clear these three selection phases and then tackle the final top-secret mission, so she harbored no undue sympathy for anyone.

However, with Rita absent due to poisoning, Rosie consulted her team and decided to allocate a fifth of the cacti to the male soldiers. She chose not to meddle in how they would share it.

Returning to the men, Lionel noted their continued glares directed at Harlee. He addressed them sternly, “A soldier’s duty is to follow orders. Ms. Sanderson has tasked us with learning to survive independently during training, so we must adjust. Moreover, our failure to find food is on us, not Ms. Sanderson.”

Lionel added with authority, “To prevent going hungry again, I propose that we split each team into five smaller units.”

Rosie and the others joined the group upon hearing this.

Lionel looked at them and said, “Each group should focus on specific survival skills: identifying edible and poisonous plants, locating food sources, finding potable water, recognizing potential dangers, and learning about the most…”

“Sustainable food options in the desert.”

“That’s a wise approach.”

Rosie regarded Lionel with respect, already formulating strategies in her head.

Mooney promptly organized the team into five appropriately skilled groups.

Meanwhile, Harlee, Thiago, and Alina continued their lunch, seemingly oblivious to the others, yet smiles crept onto their faces simultaneously.

Alina said, “Lionel’s doing quite well.”

“Yes, he’s shown considerable restraint.”
