Ancient God in the Modern World

The speed of the hovercraft is unlike the speed of the hoverboard nor the hovercar that Allen knew. Its speed is ten times if not twenty times the speed of a hovercar.

After a few hours, Allen, Thomas, and Drew reached the front line, which is about five thousand miles. But contrary to their expectation, the frontline is not gloomy nor did it reek the aura of death.

Instead, the front line looked like a lunch virgin forest. The three of them can see the astounding view of the frontline as the hovercraft silently flies above the trees.

Then, after a while, the hovercraft reached its destination and landed on a landing pad of a military base.

Allen looked around and saw a series of numbers plastered in one of the signboards, "300," which indicates that they were in Base 300.

*beep* *beep*

The three of them heard their watches beep as they received a message that contained a short introduction for Base 300.

Based on the message that they received, Allen found out that Base 300 is a base that did not only have one general operating, unlike the other bases since it was in charge of a front line.

Base 300 is facilitated by three generals and oftentimes, an admiral comes here for inspection.

The front line that Base 300 was in charge of is mainly fighting demonic beasts. But as to what is the main reason for this, it is still unknown, or rather, the reason is not yet known to the public.

"Yow, fresh meats."

A middle-aged man called unto Allen, Thomas, and Drew as he saw them. He was in charge of the three of them. Although Allen and the others were considered to be 'punished,' they cannot let fresh meats roam around in the front line and serve as free targets for their enemies.

No matter what they thought of it, they were 'part of the human race.' (Author: chuckles)

"I am Alonzo and I will be in charge of you." Alonzo introduced himself while looking at the three of them from head to toe.

For some reason, he could feel a faint intimidating aura from Thomas and Drew while Allen is totally blank, which scared somewhat frightened him.

The blank aura that he felt implies that Allen is either stronger than him or Allen has a profound ability.

*ahem*

Alonzo cleared his throat to divert his attention.

"Follow me, I'll tell you some of the rules in Base 300."

Thus, Alonzo told them some of the rules in Base 300. According to Alonzo, the trainees like them are not like those that we're in service of. They were free to do as they like as long as they submit a demonic beast corpse to the base as proof that they were not idling.

They are given a quota, which they need to reach within a month. A point will be given to every demonic beast that they submit.

Then, they could exchange the point for either Credits or treasure that was available in the treasury of Base 300 such as the weapons and some other resources. It could also be exchanged for properties or a military rank.

After a while, they entered a building, "so, that's it. Your room will be Room number 314. You will be sharing rooms whether you like it or not."

Of course, Allen did not mind. But Thomas and Drew have objections deep in their hearts. Their room was barely satisfying in their perspective for their Lord.

The room only has four bunk beds, a small desk, four closets, and a comfort room as well as a small air conditioner. Moreover, the soundproofing was not that good. They could hear some sounds from the other side of the walls of the room.

Allen shook his head but he did not voice any complaints for he knew that it would cause unnecessary trouble. Because, If he voiced it out, Thomas and Drew would surely make a fuss about it as a symbol of their faithfulness.

Allen opened his watch and checked for his quota and the system for giving points to demonic beasts.

A captain beast would be given 5 point and 1 point for the beasts below the ranks captain. Then, a colonel beast will be 10 points whether higher colonel demonic beast or lower demonic beast. 100 points for general demonic beast and 1000 points for admiral demonic beast.

And finally, Allen discovered that his quota was 300 points for this month which is equal to three general demonic beasts or thirty colonel beasts. Then, the points could be exchanged for Credits in a ratio of 1:100.

Allen took the day that they arrived at base 300 as a day off. But the next day, Allen set out and explored the lush forest of the front line.

As they stepped out of Base 300 Allen felt faint traces of demonic aura and familiar energy, the natural energy. But the natural energy seemed to be already used.

The natural energy that was not collected by anyone resulted in the lush forest of the frontline. It boosted and fertilized the forest.

Allen temporarily disregarded their quota as he thought that it would be unwise to run rampant in an environment that they were not familiar with. Thus, Allen condensed some of his divine energy and created eyes of the spirit.

The eyes of the spirits that he created back at Camp 03-355 were left in the camp and served as the eyes of his shrine.

Thomas and Drew's eyes widened as they saw Allen create a firefly-like something. The 'firefly' has the aura of their Lord which made them reverent.

"These are the eyes of the spirit. They serve as my eyes," Allen said with a calm voice.

Thomas and Drew we're enlightened, and we're also thankful at the same time. It was their first time seeing Allen create a divine item.

…

Meanwhile, somewhere in Base 300, a middle-aged man smiled and said to his subordinate.

"A divine spirit is in the front line. Eliminate him."

His subordinate nodded and said, "Yes, general, I will do my best."

For some reason, the general seemed to be aware of Allen's presence and he did not like it.

The subordinate of the general went out and swiftly followed his command.
