Devouring the Star: Age of Cataclysm

Chapter 35: Embers Medal!

In the conference room.

Lin Ye didn't say much. He picked up the pen on the table and signed his name under Party B on the last page.

Three copies were signed quickly.

Xu Qi handed over the red ink pad, Lin Ye stretched out his thumb and pressed it inside, and then pressed his fingerprints on the three agreements one by one.

Then, he handed it to her.

"Then... Mr. Lin, welcome to join the Daxia military."

Xu Qi took the contract, smiled and stretched out a hand, saying: "From now on, you are a high-ranking general in the Great Xia military, and also a colonel in our Shancheng military, Lin Ye."

"I believe that in the near future, Da Xia will have another top warrior who will wipe out the beast tide, clear away all obstacles for Da Xia's future, and illuminate the way forward!"

Lin Ye smiled, then stretched out his hand and shook her hand.

"Although I don't have such great aspirations, I just don't want to lose the people closest to me again, but... in order to repay you for saving my sister's life, I will do my best!"

When Xu Qi looked at him, she found that his eyes were firm and his spirits were high, as if he was a man of his word.

"Welcome, Colonel Lin!" Xue Zhan also stood up, his serious square face full of smiles, and extended a hand towards Lin Ye.

Lin Ye reached out his hand and shook hands with the veteran high-level warrior. After letting go, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Master Xue, when can I get the benefits in this contract?"

"As for the matter of redeeming the benefits... you'll have to ask Secretary Xu."

Xue Zhan looked at Xu Qi and said jokingly, "She is responsible for distributing these benefits."

The latter frowned slightly: "...Hmm?"

"What I'm talking about is the high-level general's combat uniform, sword... and the complete "Jiuhua Jue" as stated in the agreement." Lin Ye spoke slowly, his eyes full of desire.

Xu Qi nodded.

She had anticipated this result when she gave Lin Ye the first part of "Jiuhua Jue" last time.

After all, no warrior can resist a better guidance technique.

"I've already notified them."

"Wait a moment, the stuff will be delivered. Our human base happens to have prepared a set of equipment for high-level warriors, and we also have the Jiuhua Jue."

Xu Qi stared at Lin Ye and gave a meaningful smile.

Lin Ye nodded slightly and smiled back.

He knew very well that for warriors who had not joined the army, it would be a rare opportunity to obtain the training methods of the "Jiuhua Jue".

As for the complete genetic energy cultivation method, it is of course prepared for the military itself and cannot be leaked easily.

In this way, Lin Ye, Xu Qi and the other two chatted casually.

As it was his first time joining the military, he still had a lot to learn and needed to humbly seek advice from these two seniors.

Just as the three of them were chatting happily, there was a gentle knock on the door.

In less than five minutes, two officers of high rank entered the conference room carrying an aluminum alloy box that was 70 centimeters long, wide and high.

Behind them, a third officer followed in with a long, narrow knife case in both hands.

"This is the combat uniform prepared for you. It can resist attacks that weaken high-level beast generals, and the battle sword can break the defense of high-level beast generals. As for the higher-level ones..."

Having said that, Xu Qi paused, and her beautiful eyes dimmed a little.

Next to him, Xue Zhan sighed softly and continued, "Because the military can obtain less Lord Monster materials, the amount of synthesized Kro alloy is also small.
Therefore, the number of war god-level weapons and combat uniforms... is barely enough for the current war gods to use, and there is no extra reserve at all."

"I want to prepare something better for you, but unfortunately I am unable to do so!"

After saying that, Xue Zhan glanced at Lin Ye, his eyes filled with deep helplessness and loneliness.

"It's okay." Lin Ye shook his head gently and said with a smile, "I am currently using a high-level general's combat uniform, which is enough.

What's more, I'm not stupid enough to fight a lord monster to death, so I don't need a more advanced combat suit for the time being."

“Haha… that’s the best. What you need now is to grow up well. In the future you will definitely be a leader among the Great Xia’s war gods. Then you won’t have to worry about not having lord monsters to kill!” Xue Zhan patted Lin Ye’s shoulder with his rough, calloused hands, with a look of appreciation on his face.

Xu Qi also looked at Lin Ye with a smile on her face.

however.

Lin Ye restrained the smile in his eyes and felt a little sad.

He has been wandering in the wilderness for many years and often deals with front-line troops.

The current situation of the Daxia military is also very clear.

Ever since the large-scale battle between humans and monsters began four years ago.

There has been constant smoke of war in the Great Xia Kingdom.

Large and small beast waves continued one after another, and the consumption of combat uniforms and various resources on the front line was extremely huge.

Even a resource-rich country like Daxia, one of the five major powers, seems to be somewhat stretched when it comes to combat uniforms and weapons.

"Even a skilled cook cannot cook without rice."

Lin Ye sighed silently in his heart, and then opened the alloy box containing the combat uniforms.

The first thing that caught my eye was the one placed in the center of the box.

A small silver-white box the size of a palm.

Picking up the exquisitely crafted small password box, Lin Ye saw that it required a three-digit password to open it, and asked in confusion: "Is this my warrior badge?"

"Yes, but not entirely!"

Xu Qi smiled slightly, looked at the small silver box and said, "Not only does it contain your warrior badge, but it also contains your exclusive medal of honor after joining the Daxia military!"

"Medal of Honor?" Lin Ye was puzzled. "What is that?"

"The Medal of Honor represents your merit, which is the contribution you have made to Daxia."

Xue Zhan said calmly: "Sparks, embers, firewood, and prairie fire... correspond to warriors, generals, gods of war, and beings beyond gods of war, respectively.
This is a unique medal of honor for our Daxia military, and the number behind it is the serial number of your joining the military."

"This is my Embers medal - No. 45."

As he spoke, Xue Zhan opened his combat uniform on his chest, revealing a dark red round medal.

After taking it off, he introduced it to Lin Ye seriously——

"The Medal of Honor does not only represent merit, it is also the supreme honor for a Daxia warrior. It is our life!"

"More importantly, there is a small needle placed on the inside of the Medal of Honor.

Just press the switch and he will pop out, and the end of the needle is coated with a drug called "Shenlingyin"! "

"Once this drug enters the body, it will burn all of a person's potential in a short period of time, causing their strength to skyrocket to a terrifying level."

"Using the essence of life as a fuel, forcibly burning all the potential of the warrior... This is a means of mutual destruction, and also a means of counterattack in desperate situations..."

Xue Zhan added in a low voice, and tragic scenes flashed through his mind -

Since the appearance of the Medal of Honor and the Divine Guidance, so many warriors have used them that he couldn't even count them.

In almost every beast tide, there were warriors who would not hesitate to insert the medal into their chests and inject the potion, exchanging their potential and all the remaining lives for that short-lived surge in strength.

They used their flesh and blood and lives to stop the monsters and protect their homes.

"..."

On the side, Lin Ye listened to Xue Zhan's words silently, his eyes gradually becoming more serious...
