Chapter 8, The Night Before Dawn

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Monsters can no longer compete with humanity, and humanity will embark on a journey to the stars and the vast ocean.

Upon turning a corner and passing through a corridor, the scene before me suddenly transformed.

Such situations are quite common in the military

He went directly back to the barracks to pack his personal belongings, though he didn't have much. The military has strict regulations, and many items are not permitted to be carried.

Two fully armed soldiers holding firearms are guarding the entrance

Lin Yan stood upright, glancing towards the source of the sound. It felt somewhat familiar, and only after a moment did he realize it was the person he had encountered at the training ground yesterday

... ...

In addition, I currently possess 332 points of soul power, which is sufficient to elevate my combat strength by several levels.

This can be considered a significant upgrade from a bird gun to a cannon

Lin Yan smiled and said, "By then, we will all become martial artists and return to school together, which will be quite impressive"

Report

Lin Yan smiled and said, "You all are too."

Lin Yan stood up and saluted, saying: "Yes, Chief!"

Wang boldly declared: "I have confidence in myself, and I will definitely become a warrior before the start of school. Xinran, don't be downcast; we are soldiers, and it is our nature to bear these burdens. Only by becoming stronger can we live better in the future"

Brother, be cautious while carrying out the task

Furthermore, regarding firearms, your authorization level has been elevated, and for this mission, you are permitted to carry ammunition for 4 series weapons

Today, he also encountered danger as a tiger hound beast charged into his position. He could even smell the strong, fishy odor emanating from its gaping maw, and the glint of its sharp teeth nearly threatened to tear him to shreds. Fortunately, it was a close call without any real harm.

Alright, you can directly collect the complete set of 5 series combat equipment from the armory. I will mark the manual for the "Breaking Army Sword" as urgent, and it will be delivered to you by tonight.

The equipment of Series 5 can handle the attacks and defenses of most medium-level beast generals, while the firearms of Series 4 are sufficient to inflict damage on low-level beast generals

Lin Yan was somewhat at a loss for words

Wei Xinran looked at their optimistic demeanor and was quite influenced by it. He asked, "The person next to you is ... ... "

Wang had been waiting for a long time, and he rushed over with an excited expression: "Lin Yan, I heard that you have become a martial artist?"

Jia Yan is truly angry. Although he despises Liu Mingxuan and the library, he did not expect that, in addition to his pretentiousness, he is also so lacking in discretion.

How could the news spread so quickly that he went directly to the office for assessment after coming down from the battlefield

In fact, among the three of them, Wei Xinran possesses the best talent; however, he is somewhat indecisive in character, lacking a certain degree of boldness and decisiveness

Jia Yan was filled with anger upon hearing this

Arrival location

Is the wilderness area a place that can be used for assessment

Who did you hear this from

Lin Yan explained: "Oh, it is someone from the affairs office. After I became a martial artist, I was assigned to participate in a task, and I probably won't be able to see anyone for a while. He is here to guide me to the new work location"

Wei Xinran also lowered his head and sighed: "The battlefield is indeed fraught with dangers, I feel that I have made considerable progress, yet I still remain somewhat distant from becoming a martial artist"

A soldier regards obedience to orders as their duty

Come in

Lin Yanzheng was puzzled. Soon, a figure dressed in combat gear opened the warehouse door. His combat mask was transparent, revealing a very young face inside.

Lin Yan stood at the entrance of an abandoned military district warehouse, holding something in his hands, while the surveillance camera at the entrance emitted a hazy light

Liu Mingxuan's cold voice echoed in the conference room

This moment is the eve of dawn

For someone like him, who is deeply aware of the trajectory of the story, he knows that when Luo Feng emerges, the civilization of Earth will embark on a brand new and bright future

He did not speak, merely gestured for Lin Yan to follow. Before them was indeed just an abandoned warehouse, with containers scattered everywhere and disordered maps or drafts strewn across the ground

I am willing to undergo the deputy captain's assessment to prove that I possess sufficient strength to fulfill this position

This is, in a sense, the limit of portable firearms

Deep into the wilderness area

Wang Bing and Wei Xinran immediately went to the barracks with Lin Yan to help him pack his belongings upon hearing this. Before leaving, each of them gave him a hug

Wang chuckled and said, "Yes, yes."

However, for him, rather than waiting for the arrival of dawn, he would prefer to become the blade that pierces through the night

Lin Yan could not help but feel a sense of excitement

What is their combat mission

Pfft

Jia Yan stood up, fixing his gaze on Lin Yan with an imposing presence that exuded authority, resembling a ferocious beast ready to pounce: "I question whether your abilities qualify you to join the Starry Special Operations Team. As the deputy captain of the special operations team, I will report to the military district to revoke your membership."

"Preparatory member of the Starry Special Forces, Lin Yan, reporting for duty"

He feels that if Wang were to change his impulsive nature, he should not be a soldier, but rather become a secret agent

They were not obstructed and directly entered the base, arriving at the conference room

Lin Yan strode in, and inside, along with the young man who had just picked him up, there were a total of seven people. Liu Mingxuan stood at the forefront, and something was being played on the large screen beside him

No, Liu Mingxuan, what are you thinking? This kid shouldn't be a martial artist yet, are you bringing him over to send him to his death?

Compared to the destined protagonist of that story, he too can be sharp and unmatched

A hint of unusual color rose in Lin Yan's eyes, which was not at all like something he would say, yet upon reflection, it indeed resembled his style

Indeed. Lin Yan prevented the excited giant monkey from pouncing: "I was almost taken down by a broken bird on the battlefield, but as luck would have it, I finally crossed the threshold of a martial artist."

Lin Yan, dressed in a green military uniform, looked straight at Jia Yan, standing tall and proud, neither servile nor overbearing

Are you playing?

We all need to survive

Alright, you will now go to the barracks to pack your things. I will arrange for someone to take you to the work location of the Starry Special Forces.

The light immediately vanished

The silver metal gate revealed a secret base reminiscent of a science fiction film before his eyes, filled with various precision instruments, and the lighting was bright as day

An unfriendly voice emerged

The name seems to be "Jia Yan"

However, even so, I am still in a state of shock.

A person who is not a martial artist will only be a burden

The staff member at the office is waiting; he has not lost his patience due to the conversation among the three of them, but is quietly standing by.

Lin Yan threw his personal belongings outside the conference room and shouted loudly at the door

What is the martial artist practical assessment? A group of people is gathered in Monster Town to kill a group of low-level monsters, with the army standing guard nearby. If one's strength is insufficient, they can choose to withdraw in a timely manner.

Report, Chief. I have passed the qualified warrior test, and the arrangements from the military district indicate that I will join this mission as part of my practical assessment as a warrior

He curiously glanced at Lin Yan a few times, waiting for Lin Yan to walk in and close the door again
