Chapter 31: The last stubbornness

Lighthouse Base, Night Walker Headquarters Office.

On one screen, Zhou Wang's arrogant face was frozen. This was the picture sent back by Tianyang's electronic eye. In the past half hour, the entire process of the boy's participation in the defense line was faithfully presented on this screen.

Ling Feng sat on a chair, spinning an electronic pen in his hand. The adjutant next to him knew that Ling Feng would make such movements when he was thinking about a problem.

The pen finally stopped and Ling Feng turned off the screen.

Adjutant Lin Yangcai said: "Should we inform Han Shu and ask him to kick Zhou Wang out? It seems that he already has a grudge against Tianyang, and he may attack Tianyang in the next action."

"It doesn't matter." Ling Feng said nonchalantly, "A person who doesn't go through hardships is doomed to fail. This is why I let him directly participate in the mission instead of throwing him into the training camp. He must use his actual actions to constantly prove that he is worthy of investment. If he can't even deal with a clown like Zhou Wang, it means that his potential is just that."

Lin Yang smiled.

Ling Feng looked at him strangely: "What are you laughing at?"

Lin Yang said: "It's been a long time since I saw you have such high expectations for a young man."

Ling Feng took off his glasses: "Was it that obvious?"

Lin Yang laughed, but then said, "However, if you throw him into Han Shu's team, it won't be long before the others get suspicious. Judging from how Tian Yang killed the dog demon just now, his ability is very different from that of a War God."

Ling Feng nodded in agreement: "It is indeed very different. He is only at level 1, but he has already shown a speed that is not inferior to that of the Hunter level. Moreover, he can kill the dog demon with one blow by targeting its weak spot. I don't think he has similar experience. This may be an ability that comes with the Assassin level."

"With a few more battles, even a blind man can see that he is definitely not a god of war. But, does it matter?"

Lin Yang seemed to have figured out something key: "If you say so, it seems that the city lord has already known about this matter."

"You guessed right. Now that the city lord knows about it, it will be much easier for us to keep the news secret. In fact, there is no need to keep the new class secret for too long. We just need to wait for a while for Tianyang and Night Walker to establish a deep enough connection. We can announce it then, and we won't have to worry about other legions snatching people away."

Ling Feng

He smiled and said solemnly, "Compared to this, I am more worried about the fallout between the commander and Minister Wade at the military meeting yesterday."

Lin Yang couldn't help rubbing his face with his hands. "I was wondering why the Strategic Department suddenly sent a senior official to the Reverse Realm. It turns out that they wanted to cut the resources invested in the Ascenders. It seems that Minister Wade is still upset about the incident with his son."

Ling Feng leaned back and said, "In recent years, people have become jealous of the resources and authority that the Ascendants have, to an unbearable degree. If Minister Wade takes action at this time, there is actually a great chance of success. But now that Tian Yang has emerged, he may very likely become a huge obstacle for Minister Wade to implement reforms."

"As long as Tianyang can prove that the Avenger class has deterrent power against a certain hostile fortress, then Minister Wade's plan will be difficult to achieve."

Lin Yang sighed: "If our battlefield is only in the adversity world, life will be much simpler."

Ling Feng put his glasses back on, the reflection from the lenses blocking his eyes: "But at the same time, it's also much more boring, isn't it?"

Lin Yang muttered quietly: "At my age, being ordinary is much happier than being interesting."

... ... ...

In the field medical vehicle, Tianyang sat quietly in the corner, waiting for examination.

The car, like a small mobile medical clinic, has an independent generator set to ensure that the power supply will not be interrupted during the treatment of the wounded.

This medical vehicle has an operating room, an intensive care unit, and a temporary ward. Together with a well-trained medical team, it greatly improves the survival rate of the explorers in the reverse world.

However, it is impossible to equip a medical team for a small-scale exploration. Only important operations such as recovering star pillars can have such luxurious configuration.

Not long after, it was Tianyang's turn.

When the boy was about to enter the examination room, he happened to meet a senior official from the Strategic Department with a sterile bandage on his head.

Chen Liu had strongly advocated this rescue operation, originally intending to further bring discredit upon the Ascenders, but unexpectedly it gave the people of darkness a slap in the face.

At this moment, the arrogance he had when they first met was gone, and his face was gloomy.

Tianyang nodded slightly in greeting, but Chenliu ignored him.

Entering the examination room, the boy was slightly startled. The person in charge of the examination was Xun.

The girl had a beautiful face but had not yet fully grown up. When she saw the sun, her beautifully curved lips slightly curled up, outlining a kind smile.

"You don't look like you're injured." Although she said this, Xun still patted the snow-white examination bed and motioned Tianyang to lie down.

Tianyang took off his uniform and lay on the bed wearing only his armor. He said helplessly, "I think so too, but the captain insisted that I come."

"Captain Han really cares about you guys." Xun pulled down a piece of medical diagnostic equipment and just as she got close to Tianyang, her cute nose wrinkled slightly, "You, what did you step on?"

Tian Yang remembered that he was still sprayed with Hei Min's tempering fluid, and said awkwardly: "How about I come back later."

Xun stretched out her slender but soft hand and gently pressed him down: "Since we are already here, don't waste time."

Start the instrument and begin inspection.

Lying on the bed, looking at Xun's sweet and lovely face, Tianyang could even see the fine hair under her earlobes illuminated by the light.

"Um, why do you want to be a nurse and join the medical system of the opposite world?"

Xun paused for a moment, but did not respond and continued with his work.

Tianyang thought that he probably asked a stupid question.

"You're fine, just a few minor strains. No need to apply any medicine."

After a moment, the girl looked at the diagnosis results and said softly.

Tianyang got out of bed and took up his uniform: "Thank you for your help."

But when he was about to get out of the examination room, the girl's voice sounded from behind: "The remuneration of the medical system in the opposite world is high. My father is sick and needs to contribute to save his life. Although there are easier ways, I don't want to be bound. You should understand that in the fortress, the price of freedom is high."

When Tianyang turned around, Xun had already started busying herself with organizing the equipment. He silently glanced at the girl's back, and then the boy walked out of the room.

An easier way would be to become the wife or lover of some superior people. Given Xun's conditions, this should not be a difficult task.

But she chose a more difficult path.

Tianyang once read a book that said: Life is a journey of constant compromise, but sometimes, we should retain a bit of stubbornness for ourselves. Otherwise, what is the meaning of life

Perhaps, Xun's choice is the last bit of stubbornness she reserves for herself
