This was their first time seeing the female captain of their team.
Since the selection, she had never appeared, and now, upon her arrival, she was immediately surrounded by over ten female soldiers, bombarded with enthusiastic questions.
Flossie Wright and her two companions had just walked back when they stumbled upon this scene.
In the dormitory’s first-floor corridor, a crowd had gathered, even Jessie Grain and Mariana Buck stood on the periphery.
In the middle of the crowd were two people.
One was very familiar to them, Nancy Phillips.
The other—
Looking at the one-bar-three-star shoulder mark on her shoulders, others could guess her identity too.
Compared to Nancy Phillips, the female captain seemed much more approachable.
With short hair, no military cap on, a rounder face, about thirty, Maxwell Moore wore a gentle smile on her face.
Not particularly beautiful, but she looked mature and poised.
Quite pleasing to the eye.
"This is... the captain?"
With curiosity, Becca Reyes turned to Flossie Wright.
"Probably."
Flossie Wright shrugged her shoulders.
That was the only possibility.
"Let’s go have a look."
Raising her eyebrows, Becca Reyes beckoned with her hand, seemingly eager to try.

They had been training here for six months and had never really met this female captain...
Naturally, they were curious.
However, they all knew the name of the female captain.
Ella Pemberton.
Becca Reyes walked ahead first.
Belinda Nichols and Flossie Wright exchanged a glance and followed closely behind.
As they got closer, they could hear the conversation; it seemed that Captain Pemberton was getting acquainted with them.
"Flossie Wright?"
Just as they walked over, Captain Pemberton glanced their way, and her gaze fell on Flossie Wright.
Her eyebrows appeared gentle, a smile in her eyes, and her attitude towards Flossie Wright was very friendly.
Flossie Wright responded lazily, her gaze indifferent.
Facing this female captain, Flossie Wright wasn’t very interested.
She preferred people whose depths one could explore at a glance.
And Ella Pemberton, like many in similar positions, was too common, with no distinguishing features.
Nevertheless, she did seem easy to get along with.
Captain Pemberton nodded her head, not taking Flossie Wright’s attitude to heart.
The surrounding crowd gradually quieted down, and she smiled at the others, her voice steady and strong, "Your items will be brought over later. Also, tell the others, to assemble at the drill ground at twelve noon, Nancy will then take you to the new dormitories."
"Captain Pemberton isn’t coming?"
"How many people does the new dormitory sleep?"
"Can we choose our own dormitory?"
Swiftly, numerous questions were thrown out by several people.
Captain Pemberton didn’t speak up, but Nancy Phillips’s expression turned cold, she glared at them, silencing the few who couldn’t keep quiet.
"Alright, I should get going."
She said warmly to them and then started walking outward.
On her way, she glanced at Flossie Wright again.
Flossie Wright felt somewhat perplexed.
She had the impression of being marked as a person of interest, but she couldn’t tell if this attention was well-meaning or malicious.
"This captain doesn’t seem fierce at all."
Standing behind Flossie Wright, Becca Reyes rested her chin on Flossie’s shoulder and couldn’t help but widen her eyes in wonder.
Flossie Wright replied lazily and pushed Becca Reyes’s chin off her shoulder.
During this period, Becca Reyes had been training intensely, her abilities had caught up, but her weight had plummeted, now barely different from her skeleton.
