Just as Lan Xuanyu was about to take a bath to relax, the communicator rang.
"Captain." Lan Xuanyu turned on the communicator and Yan Xinghe's voice came from the other side.
"Xuanyu, you're finally back. Come to my place immediately." Yan Xinghe's voice was kind and relaxed, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood recently.
"yes."
Lan Xuanyu agreed, put on his military uniform, and his rank of major general shone brightly. After saying goodbye to his companions, he got on the shuttle again and headed straight for the headquarters of the Dragon III battleship.
When they arrived at the headquarters, Yan Xinghe was already waiting there. There were no other senior officers in the headquarters.
Lan Xuanyu came in front of Yan Xinghe, stood at attention and saluted him.
Yan Xinghe smiled and said, "You don't have to salute me anymore. Come, let's talk in the conference room." As he said that, he brought Lan Xuanyu to the conference room.
Confidentiality protection was turned on, and only Lan Xuanyu and Yan Xinghe were in the meeting room.
Looking at the handsome young man in front of him, Yan Xinghe exclaimed, "Heroes emerge from youth! I always thought that I was already a young and vigorous faction in the military. But compared to you, I am not even young and vigorous enough!"
Lan Xuanyu smiled and said, "Captain, don't be so modest. You are the youngest admiral in the military. You are a candidate for the future military minister. Don't think I don't know that."
Yan Xinghe laughed and said, "I don't know how long that will be. How was it? Did your return to the home planet go smoothly this time?"
Lan Xuanyu nodded. "It went quite smoothly. I also reported this matter to the academy. I spent a few days in the academy to practice and adjust, so it took me some time to come back."
"You know, if you don't come back, we'll be waiting anxiously for you! The urging letters sent by the military to your academy are probably filling up Shrek's mailbox." Yan Xinghe said helplessly.
Lan Xuanyu was stunned. He did not receive any urging from the academy. It was obvious that the academy had no intention of paying attention to the urging from the military.
"Is it so urgent?" Lan Xuanyu asked doubtfully.
"How can I not be anxious? The information you brought back last time has been secretly studied by the Federation and has been proven to be of great value. It is of extraordinary significance for our research on the various tribes in the Longma Galaxy, especially the Tianlong and Pegasus tribes. This contribution is so great that it can even be compared to the entire previous war. You know, the Longma Galaxy has been blocking all information from us. We have no idea how strong their full combat power is. We can only conduct firepower reconnaissance. Facts have proved that until now, we have never actually seen their dragon knights and Pegasus knights. And these two forces are their strongest existence."
Lan Xuanyu nodded slightly. This was what he had guessed before.
"And the director of the Federal Research Institute expressed great appreciation for the piece of Space Origin Crystal you brought back. With this piece of Space Origin Crystal, many of our stalled space research can proceed. Especially many projects that have reached the final stage. It can be said that you have made great contributions."
Yan Xinghe paused for a moment and glanced at Lan Xuanyu. The young man in front of him was still calm and unperturbed. For some reason, he felt that Lan Xuanyu was a little different after he came back this time.
"So, regarding the meritorious service you have rendered this time, the Federation has given you special commendations. All members of your team have been promoted to the sixth-level Doutianzhe. And you personally have been specially approved to become an eighth-level Doutianzhe." At this point, Yan Xinghe's expression became serious.
Level 8 Dou Tian Zhe? Lan Xuanyu was stunned for a moment when he heard this level.
At the beginning, when he had just started to complete the Doutianzhe mission, he and his partners had checked the permissions of Doutianzhe, but these permissions were limited to those below level 6. They didn't know what permissions Doutianzhe above level 6 had.
Looking at Yan Xinghe’s expression at this time, Lan Xuanyu understood that a Doutianzhe who had reached the eighth level should be very different from others.
"There are some different opinions within the Federation regarding giving you the title of Level 8 Doutian. After all, the Doutian Department has a special status in the Federation, and Level 8 Doutian is a very unique existence in the Federation. The privileges they have are very great."
When saying the last four words, Yan Xinghe deliberately emphasized his voice.
Lan Xuanyu asked: "What kind of privilege is it? I don't know much about high-level Doutian people."
Yan Xinghe said: "In terms of low position, you are no less powerful than me in the Federation. That's why I told you just now that you don't have to salute me. Because we are no longer superiors and subordinates, but equals."
"Originally, the Federation considered promoting you. But your rank was promoted too quickly, and the Federation cannot allow you to command a fleet right now. Moreover, your role is more in special operations. Therefore, several ministers of the Doutian Department decided to approve you to become an eighth-level Doutian. As for your authority."
Speaking of this, Yan Xinghe's eyes showed a bit of envy, "Level 8 Doutian has the right to mobilize the federal fleet below the Dragon King class frigate."
Lan Xuanyu was shocked. He knew exactly what it meant to mobilize fleets below the Dragon King-class frigates. In other words, he could even mobilize the entire fleet of the Seventh Fleet except for the mothership. What kind of power was this
"This... is there any restriction?" Lan Xuanyu asked doubtfully.
Yan Xinghe said: "One Dragon King-class frigate, and the corresponding number of warships equivalent to one Dragon King-class frigate. For example, three battleships. At the same time, you have the power to recommend the mobilization of the entire federal fleet. Cooperate with your actions."
After going through this divine thunder body refining, Lan Xuanyu became calmer than before. Hearing this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm his somewhat excited mood.
Yan Xinghe said: "Eighth-level Doutian masters, especially those who are performing tasks, often face great dangers. And any eighth-level Doutian master is one of the most valuable assets of the Federation. Therefore, the Federation Fleet has the responsibility to spare no effort to protect them and cooperate with them to complete difficult tasks. Speaking of which, the Void Source Crystal played a huge role in your approval to become an eighth-level Doutian master. If you can get the Void Source Crystal in the future, I believe those crazy federal researchers will definitely regard you as the most important guest. They have already sent you an invitation, and you are welcome to come to the Federal Research Institute at any time. They are willing to provide you with all the latest technological weapons and equipment."
"Besides that, as long as you are a level eight Doutian warrior and do not commit treason, no law in the Federation can punish you. It is equivalent to having a golden ticket of immunity from death. If you are willing, you will have a seat in the Federal Parliament. Of course, not now. You need to wait until you are thirty years old. You are still too young. Alternatively, if your merits can accumulate to become a level nine Doutian warrior, the door of the Federal Parliament will be opened to you instantly."
"You also have certain powers to allocate the Federation's resources. For example, if you want to make your own battle armor, the Federation's blacksmiths and battle armor makers will cooperate with you. The Federation will also build a dedicated god-level mecha for you. In short, your importance in the Federation is even greater than mine."
Lan Xuanyu had guessed about the authority of an eighth-level Doutian master, but he never thought it would be so great. If it was a ninth-level Doutian master, wouldn't he be able to directly mobilize the space fleet
Yan Xinghe gave him a deep look, "In the Doutian Department, there are currently only three ministers and deputy ministers who are ninth-level Doutian masters. I can tell you their identities now. The Lord of the War God Temple is the deputy minister of the Doutian Department, and the Lord of the Sea God Pavilion of your Shrek Academy is another deputy minister. Of course, she basically doesn't care about the affairs of the Doutian Department. The Minister of the Doutian Department is concurrently the Minister of the Military Department. That is, he is the number one person in our military and the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces. And there are only eight known eighth-level Doutian masters. You are the ninth."
