Inside The Black Mist

Ch 30: The last stubbornness

Lighthouse Base, Night Walker Headquarters Office.

On one screen, Zhou Wang's arrogant face was framed. This was the image sent back through Tianyang's electronic eyes. For the past half an hour, the young man's participation in the defense of the line was faithfully presented on this screen.

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

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

Only then did the adjutant Lin Yang say, "Should we inform Han Shu and ask him to kick this Zhou Wang out. It looks like he already holds a grudge against Tianyang, and he might even make a move against Tianyang in the next operation."

"No harm." Ling Feng said carelessly, "A person who does not go through trials and tribulations is not destined to become a great man, that is why I let him participate in the mission directly instead of throwing him into the training camp. He has to keep proving that he is worth investing in with his own actions. If he can't even handle a clown like Zhou Wang, that means his potential is nothing more than 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've seen you expect so much from a young man."

Ling Feng took off his glasses, "Did I act that obvious?"

Lin Yang laughed, but then said, "However, if you throw him into Han Shu's group, it won't take long for the others to get suspicious. From the way Tianyang took out that lead dog just now, his ability is very different from that of War God Level."

Ling Feng agreed and nodded: "It is indeed very different, this is only level 1, and already shows a speed that is not inferior to hunter level. Moreover, it is able to target lead dog's weaknesses with one hit. I don't think he has similar experience, this may be an ability that comes with the Assassin rank."

"There are so many more battles, even a blind man can see that he is definitely not any war god level. but, does it matter?"

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

"You guessed right, since the city lord knows, it will be much easier for us to block the news. In fact, the matter of the new level does not need to be hidden for too long, as long as after a period of time, so that Tianyang and Night Walker to establish a deep enough connection. When the time comes, we can announce it, and we won't be afraid of other legions grabbing people."

Ling Feng smiled, and then said solemnly, "More than that, the Commander's flip-flop with Minister Wed at the military meeting yesterday is more on these I worry."

Lin Yang couldn't help but rub his face with his hand: "I said how the Ministry of Strategy suddenly sent a high official together to Inverse Universe, it turns out to cut Ascenders' resource input, it seems that Minister Wed still has a nagging grudge about that incident with his son back then."

Ling Feng leaned back: "In recent years, people have been so jealous of Ascenders' resources and authority that they have become unbearable, and Minister Wed has a good chance of success if he makes a move at this time. But now a Tianyang has emerged, and he will, most likely, become a huge obstacle for Minister Wed to implement the reform."

"As long as Tianyang can prove that Avenger level is a deterrent to some hostile bastion, then Minister Wed's plan will be difficult to achieve."

Lin Yang sighed, "Life would be much simpler if our battlefield was just in the Inverse Universe."

Ling Feng put his glasses back on, the reflection of the lenses obscuring his eyes, "But then at the same time, it would be much less interesting, wouldn't it?"

Lin Yang whispered, "At my age, being ordinary is much happier than being interesting."

.........

In the battlefield medical van, Tianyang sits quietly in the corner, waiting to be examined.

Like a small mobile medical clinic, the vehicle has an independent generator set, which can ensure that the power supply will not stop during the process of treating the wounded.

This one medical car has an operating room, intensive care unit and temporary shelter ward. Together with a well-trained medical team, it greatly improves the survival rate of Inverse Universe explorers.

However, it is impossible to equip a medical team for small-scale exploration, and only important operations like the recovery of Pillar of Star will have such a luxurious configuration.

Not long after, it was Tianyang's turn.

The young man was about to walk into the examination room when he bumped into the senior officer of the Ministry of Strategy who had a sterile bandage on his head.

Chen Liu's rescue operation was intended to further discredit the Ascenders, but instead, the dark creatures got a big slap on the wrist.

The first time they met, they had lost their arrogance, and their faces were gloomy.

Tianyang nodded slightly in greeting, Chen Liu also ignored.

The young man was slightly stunned when he entered the examination room, the person in charge of the examination, is Xun. A young girl with a beautiful face, but not yet fully grown, when she saw Tianyang, her lips curved up slightly, outlining a smile with good intentions.

"You don't look like you're hurt." Although she said so, Xun still patted the white as snow examination bed, indicating Tianyang to lie down.

Tianyang took off his uniform and lay down on the bed wearing only body armor, saying somewhat helplessly, "I thought so too, but the captain had to let me come."

"Captain Han is quite concerned about you guys." Xun pulled down a piece of medical diagnostic, and just as he got close to Tianyang, his cute nose wrinkled slightly, "You, what did you step on?"

Tianyang remembered that on his own body, he had also sprayed DARK CREATURES' quenching body fluid, and said awkwardly, "Why don't I come back later?"

Xun stretched out a slim but soft hand and gently pressed him: "We're here, so don't waste time."

She started the instrument and began the examination.

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

"Why would you want to become a nurse and join Inverse Universe Medical System?"

Xun's movements stopped slightly, yet did not respond and continued his work.

Tianyang thought to himself that he probably asked a silly question.

"There's nothing wrong with you, just some parts are slightly strained, no need for medicine."

A few moments later, the girl who looked at the diagnosis said softly.

Tianyang got out of bed and took his uniform: "Thank you."

But as he was about to drill out of the examination room, the girl's voice rang out behind him, "Inverse Universe Medical System pays well, my dad is sick and needs contribution points to save his life. There are easier ways to do it, but I don't want to be tied down. You should understand that in the fortress, freedom is expensive."

Tianyang turned back to Xun, who was already busy organizing the instruments, and gave a silent look at the girl's back, before The young man walked out of the room.

An easier way would have been to become the wife or lover of some Upper Citizen. With Xun's condition, this should not be a difficult task.

But instead, she chose a more difficult path.

Tianyang read a book that said this: Life is a journey of constant compromise, but sometimes we should keep a touch of stubbornness for ourselves. Otherwise, what's the point of life?

Perhaps Xun's choice is the last bit of stubbornness she has reserved for herself?
