Chapter 64: Heading to Battlefield #44
The day was already approaching noon, and Lein finally reached the city of Gehan, where he would depart with his team. As a three-star being, he had to lead a team to fight against the enemy.
The initial reward just for forming the mission and reaching the battlefield was 5,000 points, and if the mission succeeded, they would earn over 50,000 points. This mission was the best he could find at the moment.
Lein's flying boat slowly lined up at the city port, then docked neatly like the other flying ships.
Lein and the others then disembarked from the boat.
"Miss Su, I will be undertaking a mission. So for now, you can take refuge in the city of Gohan. Besides, all the important people in the sect are currently away fighting," Lein said to Su Yiling's family.
He couldn't give up his intention of earning points on the front lines just for the Laras family. Bringing them this far from their hometown was already a stroke of luck.
"Can I join you, Brother Lein? I will help as much as I can," Su Yiling offered. She herself was a Golden Core cultivator, but because she belonged to a high-level sect, she wasn't required to undertake combat missions. Moreover, she was still at the early stage of the Golden Core.
"Sorry, Miss Su, I can't," Lein firmly refused. He then took out 1,000 golden defense talismans from his bag, and a ring from his space storage, and handed them to Su Yiling.
"Miss Su, use these if you are in danger. Don't hesitate to use them."
Su Yiling accepted the small bag given by Lein, then examined it.
"What!?..."
Su Yiling screamed inwardly. Her eyes widened, and she looked at Lein with disbelief. She then said, "But Brother Lein, this is too valuable..."
Lein knew Su Yiling would react this way. Besides the golden defense talismans, he had also given her the Time Ring artifact.
Lein didn't respond to Su Yiling's words; he just waved his hand casually.
"Oh, I almost forgot one more thing," Lein took out a small pouch containing thousands of regular and mid-level energy crystals.
"Goodbye... we will meet again in a few days," said Lein as he walked toward the main road of the city.
Su Yiling and her family watched Lein as he walked away.
"Such a kind young man..."
"Yes, may he return safely."
Su Yiling's parents spoke. They looked at Su Yiling, who was staring silently where Lein had gone.
"Yiling... now is not the time to be sad," Su Yiling's mother approached and hugged her. As parents, they somewhat understood their daughter's feelings.
"UMM... I'm not sad, Mom. I'm just praying that Brother Lein gets the best results on his mission."
Soon Su Yiling and her family went to find a nearby inn to stay.

Qian Race War Building.
Lein was currently in front of the reception desk. He handed his war card to one of the receptionists on duty.
"Thank you, Mr. Lein, your data has been verified."
"The team and ship are ready at the port, Warship #8."
The female receptionist behind the desk returned Lein's war card and also a silver token.
(War Leader Token) A token used by the commander to lead a combat force during wartime.
- Soldiers: 50 Tier 2, 200 Tier 1
- Ships: 1 main ship, 2 support ships
- Domain: Qian Race
The war leader token was made of iron and had fine tassels at the end. Lein nodded and stored the token.
He immediately hurried to the port to meet his team.
It didn't take long for Lein to spot Warship number 8.
The ship was made of black iron, had 7 floors, with a length of 50 meters and a width of 10 meters. It was relatively small, but its combat equipment and design were indeed made for quick combat and maneuvering.
Behind warship number 8, there were two other larger ships. These ships were made of wood with several defense cannons.
There were already many people on the ships. The entire team was divided into two groups occupying the two ships at the back, while the main warship number 8 had a few people on board.
Lein came and boarded warship number 8. The ship's design looked more spacious than it appeared.
"Hey, there he is..."
"It looks like our leader this time is a player."
"Is he strong?"
Many discussions were happening among some of the people on the ship. Lein observed them all calmly. Most were cultivators, followed by Beast Masters, and a few were Star Beasts.
Lein was somewhat curious about beings with the Star Beast power type. From some information he had heard, they were actually sacred animal beings. Their cultivation method depended on how well their bloodline was.
"Hello, my name is Lein. I am your leader for this mission."
"Our destination this time is Battlefield #44."
Lein announced to them all casually. He saw some people with skeptical faces doubting his abilities. But he didn't care, as long as he wasn't disturbed, it didn't matter to him.
"You there... steer the ship," Lein pointed to a young man with cat ears at the front of the line. There was no particular reason for choosing him; he just pointed randomly.
"Yes, sir," the young man said firmly. He then went to the helm to steer the ship.
Of course, steering the ship didn't have to be done from the control room. But because they wanted to get there quickly, someone had to steer the ship.
The main ship soon flew and turned towards the void, followed by the two other ships behind.
Lein's combat team journey began.

"Wang Cai... Surrender and join the Lowu Race."
An old man with a long white beard was talking to a bald old man.
The bald old man was currently radiating golden light, and behind him, a 30-meter tall Buddha statue image floated majestically.
"Hahaha... What nonsense are you talking about? Come if you dare."
Wang Cai provoked. He wasn't afraid at all of the old man with the white beard.
"My task is merely to keep you from helping those low-level beings... Hhhh," the white-bearded old man's laughter echoed.
Wang Cai was deep in thought, he was indeed worried about something at the moment.
