After spending a little more than a day, Tianyang saw the supply base at noon.
On the way, he thought about how to contact Chu Yan. The most convenient way was to sneak into the base and meet with the old commander alone, but in the end, he decided to enter the base openly to announce his return.
Considering that his father has already conveyed his message to the old commander, he believes that Chu Yan will not take the opportunity to arrest him. This is out of trust in his father and trust in the Night Walker.
If it were a different time or place, he would never do that.
At this moment, Tianyang was driving a magnetic energy vehicle stolen from the wilderness. Xing Luo was sitting in the passenger seat. The magnetic energy vehicle was wobbling towards the gate of the base.
In order to prevent Xing Luo's appearance from causing unnecessary trouble, Tian Yang found her a mask to wear, covering her face so that people would not associate her with the Silver Knight of the church.
When they arrived at the gate of the base, a group of soldiers stopped Tianyang and asked him to get out of the car and show his identification.
Tianyang opened the car door, jumped out, and said with a smile: "Please inform Commander Chu Yan that the night walker Tianyang wants to see you."
It seemed that Chu Yan had already informed the guards. When they heard Tianyang's name, they hurriedly reported to their superiors. A moment later, an officer in a Storm uniform led Tianyang and the other man into the base.
In the base command room, Tianyang brought Xingluo in and saw the commander of the Night Walkers, Chu Yan.
Chu Yan was wearing a night walker's long coat and holding a cigarette in his mouth. When he saw Tianyang, he waved his hand, and the people in the command room filed out. Soon, the door of the command room was closed, and only Chu Yan, Tianyang and three others were left.
Exhaling a puff of smoke, Chu Yan got straight to the point and said, "I have lifted the wanted order that Yuan Shu issued for you. If you are willing, I can restore all your duties in Night Walker."
Tianyang smiled and said, "Thank you, Commander, but it's not necessary."
"I came back this time mainly because I heard that the Fortress War had broken out, so I came back to see if there was anything I could do to help. After the war is over, I will leave and will no longer stay in the Skyfort."
Chu Yan didn't force it. The old man nodded and said "OK", then laughed and said: "I can see the shadow of your father in you. In a way, you two are very similar."
"Tianyang, I have always owed you an apology. Today, I finally have the chance to say sorry to you."
Tian Yang was puzzled and asked, "Commander, why is this happening?"
Chu Yan sighed, "When your father entered the Reverse Realm, I arranged for your mother to take you away from the Upper City to prevent you and your son from being found by someone with ulterior motives."
"I have been keeping an eye on you, but I was afraid of exposing your identity, so I didn't dare to approach you or offer you help."
"I originally thought that you would live an ordinary life, but I didn't expect that you would become an extraordinary person."
"When I got the news from Ling Feng that you became an Avenger, I had very complicated feelings. I was happy for Su Lie, but I was also worried that you would be in danger as you became a Beyonder, and a new rank."
"Just when I was hesitating whether to hide you from the public and prevent you from being promoted to a high position so as to avoid being assigned to overly dangerous tasks. Due to my negligence, Nan Fei met with an accident."
"It was after that incident that I made up my mind that only by being strong can I protect myself and the people I consider important. So
After that, I stopped restricting you and assigned you some more important tasks, hoping to train you. "
The old commander said this, looked at Tianyang, and nodded gently: "You did not disappoint me, you completed all the tasks excellently, and your rank was promoted quickly."
"Originally, your mother should have been able to share your growth and your glory. If I had been more decisive and not considered so much, and directly protected your mother, then what happened later would not have happened..."
Tianyang then realized that Chu Yan was apologizing for this matter. Although a long time has passed, Tianyang still felt a slight pain in his heart when Chu Yan mentioned it, and his mother's face flashed through his mind.
He closed his eyes, exhaled softly and said, "This matter has passed, and I think Dad is the one who needs to apologize."
Chu Yan put out his cigarette: "I've already told him."
Tianyang smiled and said, "That's fine."
The old man hummed, was silent for a moment, and then continued: "You go find Han Shu. After they received the news that you were released from the wanted list, they all came to me and asked when you would be back."
"They all want to see you. I'll have someone take you there. Also, if you are needed, I'll let you know. But do you mind telling me your current rank? That way, I can take it into consideration when arranging tasks."
Tian Yang said frankly: "I have successfully been promoted to rank 7 not long ago, but I have just started to work in the field of 'phase' and have not yet formed my own style."
Chu Yan was stunned for a moment: "You are already at rank 7? You can actually gather all the sublimation media by yourself, good boy, I want to regret it now, I shouldn't have agreed to let you go afterwards."
Tian Yang laughed and said, "Commander, once you say something, it's like spilled water. Don't even think about taking it back."
Chu Yan snorted: "I said you two are alike. In this respect, you and Su Lie are exactly alike."
He laughed again and waved, "Go ahead, go meet your friends."
Tianyang nodded and took Xingluo out of the command room.
Outside the command room, an officer had received the message and was responsible for taking Tianyang to see Han Shu.
On the way, Tian Yang learned from the officers that Chu Yan had transferred most of the Night Walkers to the front due to the needs of the war. The missions of the Night Walkers were the same as the last Fortress War, either to perform independent missions or to be mixed into the Storm Army to serve as support nodes on the battlefield.
When they arrived at the Night Walker's camp, it was surprisingly quiet. After asking around, the officer found out that most of the Night Walkers were out on missions.
Han Shu was no exception, but there was an acquaintance still in the camp, and that was the captain of the Huayu Squad, Ji Yu.
The officer led Tianyang to the tent of the Huayu Squad and went in to pass the message. Tianyang then heard a soft cry from the tent, and then a figure rushed out from inside.
It was a clear rain.
After not seeing each other for a while, Ji Yu had matured a bit, and even her hair had grown longer, tied into a high ponytail at the back of her head. Her dark red eyes looked her up and down, and there was a faint scar on her face, it looked like she had been on many missions in the past six months.
"Long time no see, Ji Yu." Tian Yang raised his hand and greeted with a smile.
"It's really you, Tianyang, you kid, are you finally willing to roll back?" Jiyu suddenly rushed over,
She hugged Tianyang and rubbed her hair with her hands, "Also, you have to call me sister, call me sister, how many times do I have to tell you before you understand!"
Looking at the crystal clearness in the corners of her eyes and feeling the tight embrace, Tianyang felt a warm feeling in his heart. This was the feeling of being hugged by family.
He raised his hand, hugged Ji Yu gently, closed his eyes and said, "It's me, I'm back, Sister Yu."
Several girls came out from the tent of Huayu Team. They were Jiyu's team members. Seeing their captain hugging a young man tightly, they were extremely surprised and either covered their mouths or widened their eyes.
At this time, Ji Yu loosened his hand, turned around, and said to his teammates proudly: "He is Tianyang, he is a member of our Night Walker, and he is also one of my family members!"
Then he took Tianyang's hand and said, "Come on, tell your sister where you have been all this time!"
Tianyang was pulled away by her without any explanation, but he did not resist at all. He found a quiet corner away from the tent and simply told her about his journey.
After hearing this, Ji Yu sighed and said, "I have never left East Continent. No, let alone East Continent, I have never even left the Gulf. I didn't expect that you would go to West Continent. After hearing what you said, I also want to travel far away."
Tian Yang reminded her, "It's not easy to travel far. The wilderness is very dangerous. In addition, the activities of the gods and evil spirits have become more frequent in the past six months, and there have been fortress wars in the Central Continent."
Ji Yu wrinkled her nose and said, "You can do it, but why can't I? Sister, I am now at rank 6, how about you? Have you reached rank 6 yet?"
Tianyang laughed dryly: "I am now at rank 6."
Then he asked, "Captain, are they all right?"
Ji Yu then said, "The captain is still the same. He has also been promoted to rank 6, about four months faster than me. I just recently gathered enough contribution points and made full progress before applying for promotion to the fortress."
"Cangdu is still at rank 5, and his contribution points are still a little short. There's nothing I can do about it, he spends money a lot. Unlike me, I'm on my own, so I can save money faster."
"By the way, that kid Kunlan is gone."
Tianyang was stunned for a moment: "Gone, where is he going?"
"After we came back from the expedition, he left, saying that he wanted to go to another world to train himself. And Xiaoniao, because you left without saying goodbye, she was disheartened and applied for retirement after returning. I haven't seen her for a long time."
After listening to Ji Yu's words, Tian Yang finally knew the current situation of his former partner.
Tianyang asked again: "Where's Qianhong? Did she leave too?"
Ji Yu laughed: "Do you still remember Qian Hong? No, she stayed because Xun told her that you would definitely come back."
"That silly girl didn't leave just because of what you said. Otherwise, I think she would definitely come to find you."
Tian Yang sighed softly: "Something happened in the tomb and I had to leave. I will apologize to her when I see her."
Ji Yu nodded, and then said: "When the captain and the others come back from their mission, I will take you to find Xun. She is in a medical camp in the war zone, and she is very busy every day. She is already at level 5. With her around, everyone feels much more at ease on the battlefield..."
Just at this moment, Ji Yu's communicator rang. She picked it up and her face suddenly changed.
