Chapter Index

    That “coo coo” sound seemed to be giving a command to the Blade Beast.

    As soon as Wang Jixuan noticed this commotion, a small number of the bladed beasts besieging the fortress and camp began to retreat.

    The horde of bladed beasts seemed to be in disarray, like two opposing tides.

    And it was at this moment…

    Guh—

    That young queen beetle!

    Wang Jixuan suddenly turned his head to look in the direction from which the ghostly scream came. It was in the northwest, and he could see a continuous stretch of sand dunes.

    The horde of bladed beasts retreated simultaneously.

    The human army opened fire with all its might and immediately gave chase, shouts echoing through Wang Jixuan’s earpiece.

    Uncle Tai and Wan Xiaoqi are cheering;

    The commander is calling for fire pursuit;

    Ling Tong asked him how things were going… Ah, I need to reply to that.

    “It’s nothing, sir, don’t worry about me,” Master Wang asked quickly. “Are you in pursuit?”

    “Our principle is to fight within the effective range of firepower.”

    Ling Tong’s voice was still very relaxed:

    “I remember you promised two hours of massage.”

    “I’ll clean up the battlefield first, and then hunt them down as needed.”

    “No problem,” Wang Jixuan said immediately. “Don’t pursue it too far… I heard pigeons cooing twice just now. The first time, the order came from the side of the fortress, and then some of the Blade Beasts began to retreat, causing chaos. The second time, it came from the young King Insect in the northwest, and all the Blade Beasts began to retreat.”

    “Understood, I will report this information.”

    Lingtong said:

    “Several unfamiliar psionicists have appeared at the Fortress Psionic House. They are not registered and may be helpers invited by Qin Qin.”

    “Don’t approach the fortress for now.”

    “good.”

    Wang Jixuan responded, and Ling Tong had already hung up the call.

    Zheng Shiduo shouted from the side, “Coordination complete! We can go over there now, boss!”

    “I’m tired,” Master Wang said, waving to Zheng Shiduo from the top of the armored vehicle. “See you later, I’m about to disappear into the camp.”

    Zheng Shiduo blinked and immediately said, “Understood! I’ll take care of the cleanup!”

    This guy is pretty savvy.

    Wang Jixuan took the remote control out of his pocket, tossed it over, jumped off the armored vehicle, and ran towards the camp in the morning light.

    Get some more crystal cores!

    Anyway…

    What does the crystal core mined by the Black Storm have to do with Wang Zheng?

    Zheng Shiduo gripped the remote control tightly, trembling, and let out a long sigh of relief. He looked up at Wang Jixuan’s rapidly speeding figure.

    He heard greetings from his teammates through his earpiece:

    “Captain Zheng, is this your old flame?”

    “He’s amazing! He threw the explosive charge with such confidence and accuracy. We’re all lucky to have him, otherwise we might have been dead too.”

    “I advise you not to make any careless remarks, or I’ll record it.”

    Zheng Shiduo clicked his tongue:

    “This guy is someone Ling Tong has taken a liking to. You know Ling Tong’s personality.”

    “Damn it, Captain, I’m sorry, please don’t record this!”

    “Major Ryūdō is the fiercest! Pfft, the cutest!”

    How many of our team members are still here?

    “Eight? Nine?”

    “Eleven, Captain. Eighteen came, and seven died.”

    Zheng Shiduo smiled and said, “We’ll throw them a farewell party later and cremate their remains together… We must show full respect to our fallen teammates, and we must not take away their personal belongings or damage their bodies.”

    The team members started complaining halfway through their cheers:

    “Captain, this is a waste of resources!”

    “I even want to make a specimen of my boyfriend’s sapling; we’re a perfect match.”

    “This is a bit disgusting. I just wanted to sleep with my roommate again.”

    How do you sleep?

    “Sleep normally! You filthy, disgusting bastards!”

    Zheng Shiduo:…

    He often felt out of place with his teammates because he wasn’t eccentric enough.

    Forty-two crystal cores!

    Moreover, in terms of quality, most of them are comparable to the crystal cores he obtained at the House of Psionic Energy last time!

    Master Wang looked at the spoils spread out on the bed and smiled with narrowed eyes.

    He deftly wrapped the crystal cores with demon-sealing talismans, leaving three for later cultivation. He then divided the crystal cores into three areas and cast spirit-suppressing spells to minimize spiritual energy fluctuations.

    He then jumped back onto the bed.

    Is the gas leaking?

    Replenish directly with the spiritual power of the crystal core!

    These crystal cores should be enough for him to advance to the later stage of the Gathering Spirit Realm. Next, he will absorb spiritual energy, temper his body, and strengthen his divine soul, taking steady steps forward!

    Wang Jixuan activated the array plate, focused his mind, and streams of spiritual energy were rapidly released and absorbed by him.

    Now is a good time for training. The camp is busy cleaning up the battlefield, replenishing ammunition, and allocating supplies.

    The Blade Beasts retreated voluntarily; they were not all destroyed.

    The fighting on the outer defense line of the medieval basin war zone intensified, with new Blade Beast tribes joining the war, which put some pressure on the entire D5 integrated war zone.

    Fortunately, the D5 Comprehensive Theater has a relatively long history and abundant material reserves, so supporting the Middle East Basin Theater in fighting a high-intensity war for several months is not a problem at all.

    After all, the resources invested in these fortresses were all in preparation for the war against the Blade Beasts.

    Rumors of a black storm have already spread through the military camps.

    Coupled with the previous legends of Black Storm punishing gangs in the lower city, the soldiers were all discussing this mysterious psychic who had suddenly appeared with great interest.

    Most people believed that the Black Storm was a psionicist created by the military, which greatly excited the soldiers in the camp.

    The battle before and after dawn consumed a large amount of ammunition, but because the defensive line was not breached by the Blade Beasts, the soldiers did not suffer heavy casualties.

    Fortunately, the Blade Beast did not fight to the very end;

    Otherwise, if a gap appears in the camp’s defensive firepower, it could easily lead to a complete collapse of the camp’s defenses.

    Wang Jixuan had only been cultivating for less than half an hour when there was a knock on the door.

    His spiritual senses had already detected it, so he put away the array plate, got up, and opened the door.

    Ling Tong, dressed in that white combat suit, came into view.

    She was sizing up Wang Jixuan.

    Uncle Tai, who was behind him, shouted, “See! I told you he wasn’t hurt!”

    Sister Wan raised her hand to hit him, but Uncle Tai quickly shut up and lowered his head to eat his breakfast.

    “Mechanic Wang Zheng,” Ling Tong said coldly, “the D5 Comprehensive Theater Command is dissatisfied with you for disobeying orders, going into battle without authorization, and joining the assault team without permission.”

    Wang Jixuan nodded with a smile: “I thought it would be criticism.”

    “I received two messages.”

    Ling Tong’s pretty face melted like ice and snow, and she shrugged slightly.

    “The first message was critical, but a dozen seconds later a second message came, and the tone changed to one of dissatisfaction.”

    “Rest assured, I will not delay the subsequent research on the Demon-Slaying Dagger.”

    Master Wang gazed at Ling Tong’s neck, where a gauze pad was affixed to her swan-like neck.

    “Are you injured?”

    “I got grazed by a flying rock during the fight; it’s just a superficial wound. What about you?”

    “I’m fine.”

    The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

    “What kind of magic did you use on Zheng Shiduo?” Ling Tong’s expression was slightly disgusted. “He was praising Black Storm like crazy and even said he wanted to establish a Black Storm cult to develop followers for Black Storm.”

    Master Wang frowned and pursed his lips.

    In their cultivation world, only those evil cultivators who cannot break through their own cultivation and want to take crooked paths will set up temples and religions for themselves and make offerings.

    “Come in and talk,” Wang Jixuan said, “or we can go to the dinner table.”

    “I can’t rest right now, I just came back temporarily to check on you.”

    Lingtong said quickly:

    “This battle caused considerable losses to the horde of blade beasts. They retreated underground, withdrawing along the geological tunnels they had previously constructed.”

    “We don’t have enough bunker buster bombs, so we’re trying to determine the location of the young queen beetle by tracking the movement of these blade beast swarms.”

    “The Space Fortress has prepared three tactical nuclear missiles and one three-phase missile, ready to support us at any time.”

    “However, because too many nuclear missiles have been used up in previous battles, and because there are war zones all over the world, the average number of nuclear missiles per region is insufficient. The space fortress will only release these nuclear missiles when the number of Blade Beasts reaches a certain level.”

    “Do you have any other information about the young Queen Beetles?”

    Wang Jixuan thought carefully and said softly, “Meng Caiyuan, that failed psionicist who can command lower-level blade beasts, I suspect he can communicate with the young king worm.”

    “Um……”

    Ling Tong thought carefully and said softly:

    “I’m going to the Fortress Psionic House next to capture Qin Qin.”

    “Do you want to come along? Under the guise of Black Storm.”

    “Because of your actions last night, the matter of Black Storm can no longer be kept from the Thirteenth Institute. Now the Joint Defense Force will protect you steadfastly. As long as you separate the identities of Black Storm and Wang Zheng, there won’t be any major problems.”

    “Okay,” Wang Jixuan nodded immediately. “I also want to meet those unfamiliar psychics… Zheng Shiduo has changed my opinion of the psychic community quite a bit.”

    Ling Tong reminded him, “Perceptions can only be directed at individuals, not groups. Everyone’s past is complex, and there are extremely evil people in the military. Most psychics are puppets of the Thirteenth Institute.”

    “I understand that principle perfectly well. Please wait a moment while I change my clothes.”

    Just as Wang Jixuan was about to close the door, he paused, raised his sword finger, and stretched it toward Ling Tong’s neck.

    Ling Tong’s body was a little tense, but she remained calm and restrained, and did not launch a counterattack.

    clatter.

    Wang Jixuan pointed a finger at the outside of her wound gauze, and strands of spiritual energy seeped into it.

    A faint wisp of black mist emanated and disappeared into the air, while her wound felt a slight tingling sensation.

    Master Wang had actually discovered a wisp of stagnant energy swirling around the area, but it hadn’t yet had a chance to invade Ling Tong’s brain.

    However, when he’s in a good mood, he also pays attention to this little thing called emotional intelligence.

    “Such beautiful skin, it wouldn’t be good if it got scarred.”

    Close the door and change your clothes.

    Ling Tong paused at the door for a few seconds, then lowered her head and went back to her room.

    She didn’t change her clothes, just took a short rest. Based on her judgment, she would need to use this combat suit again later.

    Two helicopters landed in the center of the fortified military camp.

    After observing the traces of the battlefield along the way, Master Wang gazed at the remains of the bladed beasts with a sigh of despair.

    Crystal cores are a core resource required by the 13th Research Institute, which keeps a close eye on them and considers them its top priority.

    At this stage, the military must abide by the laws of the Fortress Era. It cannot deliver crystal cores to Wang Jixuan until it has purged all the spies planted within the military by the Thirteen Institutes or has completely broken ties with the Thirteen Institutes.

    Obtaining a small number of crystal cores is not difficult; the military can organize trustworthy hunting teams to hunt bladed beasts and extract crystal cores.

    However, these are all benefits that Wang Jixuan can only obtain after his mutual trust with the military has been upgraded.

    More than a dozen figures jumped out of the helicopter.

    Ling Tong walked at the front, followed closely by Zheng Shiduo and more than a dozen military personnel and military psionicists. Wang Jixuan, wearing a black helmet, black combat uniform, and carrying a baseball bag, followed behind them.

    The elevator goes directly to the third floor of the fortress.

    The Psionic House remains occupied by hundreds of elite warriors.

    Most of the psionicists stationed at the fortress had participated in the previous sub-battlefield.

    —As a reserve team.

    At this moment, these psionicists are all under house arrest in ground military camps, and the Psionic House has fewer than ten legally stationed psionicists.

    These guys are currently blocking the entrance to the lab.

    Upon seeing this, Zheng Shiduo immediately prepared to adopt the demeanor of a ‘C-level veteran’ and hurl a few insults at these D-level and E-level psionicists.

    Ling Tong raised the right robotic arm.

    Buzz, whoosh!

    A small pit emitting black smoke appeared on the cement floor.

    The group of psionicists immediately became obedient, standing against the wall as if they were about to give a military salute.

    The sound of hurried footsteps approached the laboratory door. Qin Qin, wearing a white lab coat, appeared behind the glass door of the laboratory, a charming smile on her lips.

    “Major Ling Tong, are you going to use an arrest warrant on me? Oh, the Black Storm has arrived too… Uncle Feng, this is the psychic I mentioned to you, created by the military.”

    Qin Qin smiled and took a half step back.

    A somewhat thin old man, dressed in a Tang suit and with his hands behind his back, walked to the laboratory door and stared at Ling Tong and Wang Jixuan with an unfriendly expression.

    Master Wang had already spotted this guy; otherwise, he wouldn’t have voluntarily walked at the very back of the group.

    The old man possessed powerful energy within him;

    It is mottled and messy, yet it carries a kind of ‘order’ born from the chaos.

    If we compare the old man to Zheng Shiduo, just looking at the amount of energy in his body, he is roughly equivalent to sixteen and a half Zheng Shiduos.

    It’s obvious… a B-rank psionicist.
