Chapter 142: End of the Reserves Camp! (Added for Alliance Hierarch Déjà Vu)
"Commander-in-chief, Qin Nan has slain an Emperor-tier Dark Crystal Beast in the Dark Demon Immortal Country!"
In front of Nan Yue Ran, a phantom light and shadow surfaced, unable to conceal his excitement, he spoke rapidly.
"Understood." Hearing the voice that faintly echoed over, Nan Yue Ran quickly rose to his feet, gazing in the direction of the Immortal Country.
An Emperor-tier Dark Crystal Beast...
Worry flickered in Nan Yue Ran's eyes.
The Dark Crystal Beast clan was not easy to propagate, and their strength was among the very top in the Dark Demon Immortal Country, so each one slain was a great achievement.
He wondered how that girl managed to do it.
Even Guardian Beast Co-operation in two dimensions would hardly make this feasible.
Could it be...
Thinking of a possibility, Nan Yue Ran could no longer restrain himself and rushed to the window.
Following that, he saw that giant claw stretching out from the depths of the Dark Demon Immortal Country!
"Dark Kirin! You're seeking death!"
His pupils contracted instantly, and Nan Yue Ran let out a fierce shout, his figure vanishing from the command headquarters' office, whereabouts unknown.
…
The First Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
"How is the batch of new students from Jinghua University doing in the reserve camp?" A tall, bald man with his fingers interlaced and resting on his chin, swept his gaze over several projections before him.
"Commander-in-chief, they have just started their combat missions, and the situation is not bad so far," a silhouette quickly responded.
"That's fine," the bald man nodded slightly. "Instruct the instructors at the coordination reserve camp not to take anything lightly; this year, I hope the casualties among the students will remain at zero."
"Yes!" the person in the projection responded promptly.
"Next, we will..." The bald man was about to continue when he suddenly stopped mid-sentence, looking up toward the Dark Demon Immortal Country shrouded in countless dark clouds.
"Meeting adjourned!"
Leaving those words behind, the man's figure disappeared in an instant, leaving the other attendees exchanging glances.
…
The Third Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
"Xiao Hua, how about I personally cook and make you some Guobaorou?"
"Mom, don't you need to direct the battlefront?" A young boy with wide eyes looked hopefully at the beautiful woman who started to busy herself in the kitchen.
"Today isn't too busy; the scale of the superbeast tide is smaller than usual, so I can take some time off," the beautiful woman replied with a smile, her eyes sharp yet her smile was remarkably tender. "It's probably because those beast scamps know it's my son's birthday today, so they're giving us some face!"
"Pfft!" The boy couldn't help but laugh, "Since when does the Immortal Country give us face?"
"Who knows?" The beautiful woman shrugged her shoulders. As she dropped pieces of prepared meat into the wok, she continued, "By the way, Xiao Hua, you'll be eighteen after today, have you decided what beast to contract with?"
"Xue Henqing, I suppose!" The young boy smiled.
"Good choice."
The mother and son chatted warmly, and the beautiful woman's face was always bursting with smiles.
Until, at a certain moment, her smile froze slightly.
"Xiao Hua, it looks like I, as a mother, am going to have to break a promise again."
Leaving behind those words, the beautiful woman disappeared in an instant.
The boy glanced at the Guobaorou in the wok that was still sizzling, let out a sigh, and without surprise, picked up the spatula.
…
The Fourth Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
A man with glasses stared at the countless screens arrayed in the air, issuing orders for the day's combat operations.
At a certain moment, he swiped his hand, swiftly transferring command to his subordinates, then without a word, he stepped forward, and his figure vanished on the spot.
…
The Fifth Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
A short-haired woman was communicating with her husband, her typically cold demeanor unusually tender and shy, with an uncommon smile on her face.
Until at a certain moment, the short-haired woman's expression stiffened slightly, and after quickly saying "The battle is urgent," she vanished from the spot without hesitation.
…
The Sixth Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
A broad-backed, bear-waisted man brandishing a stick was chasing after a blubbering young man, greeting him with the stick at every opportunity.
Until at a certain moment, the man grunted and dropped the line "You're lucky today, kid," abandoning his stick and instantly disappeared.
…
The Seventh Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
…
The Eighth Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
…
The Ninth Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
…
The Tenth Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
…
The Eleventh Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
…
The Twelfth Combat Sequence, Combat Headquarters.
…
In every Combat Headquarters, the commander-in-chief holding authority, no matter what they were doing at that moment, all suddenly left their responsibilities behind, disappearing without a trace.
…
Desperation filled Lin Su's eyes.
Dark Kirin hadn't even fully revealed its form, and the mere presence coming from millions of miles away had already posed a lethal threat to Lin Su. It felt as if a single thought from the creature would be enough to obliterate him on the spot.
Is this the power of an Immortal?
He had thought that if the strength of the Emperor tier was so great, then the power of the Immortal tier should be only a few times higher than the Emperor tier.
Only at that moment did he realize how ridiculous his assumption was.
The difference between the Immortal and Emperor tier was even greater than the difference between the Emperor tier and the Youngling tier!
In the eyes of the Immortal, an Emperor is no different from an ant.
At that moment, it was as if the heavens and the earth were repulsing Lin Su, loathing him as it were.
This was no longer a supernatural power; it was the application of supernatural rules.
Within the rules, the Immortal was divine, the creator itself!
