Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Chapter 12: The Eternal Flame!

The great battle came to an end.

Lin Ye did not join the Iron Dragon Army warriors in pursuing the retreating兽群(shou qun - beast horde), but instead went to the monsters he had killed.

He was always very proactive and spared no effort in dissecting monsters and collecting materials.

When Lin Ye faced the giant wolf at the level of a Beast General, he was overjoyed.

Because high-level monsters often meant higher prices.

Moreover, this was the first Beast General he had killed himself.

He dissected it with great care, disassembling and collecting the important parts one by one.

At this time, a captain with a "Mid-Level Warrior" badge on his shoulder limped towards Lin Ye, supporting his heavily injured body.

Staring at this young warrior general who was focused on dissecting, the captain finally said weakly, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome, it's my duty!"

Lin Ye glanced at the blood-covered warrior and said, "Go get treatment quickly, don't stay here!"

"Want a smoke?"

"Thanks, but no."

After saying that, he continued his dissection work without looking back.

The captain reached into his pocket for a cigarette, pulling out a crumpled cigarette case stained with blood at one corner.

He tilted his head and struggled to pull one out.

Because his hands were covered in blood, the cigarette was also covered in blood when he put it in his mouth.

"Cough cough cough!!!" He struck a match to light it, but suddenly coughed, spraying blood and the cigarette onto the ground.

"Here!" Lin Ye picked up the cigarette, lit it, and handed it over.

"Thank you... thank you!!"

The captain took the cigarette, nodded, put it in his mouth, looked at the gradually dawning sky, and a trace of gratitude appeared in his eyes: "I thought I wouldn't see the sun today, but you came!"

"..." Lin Ye frowned slightly, paused for a moment, and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is... cough cough... Lu Gang!!" The captain introduced himself, smiled, his teeth covered in blood.

"Lu Gang, will as strong as steel!" Lin Ye said with a smile.

"Indeed, your name suits you, your temper is really stubborn and unyielding. You have such serious injuries and you're not going for treatment, but running here to chat with me."

Hearing this, Lu Gang scratched his head embarrassedly.

He just trembled and turned around, pointing to a pile of corpses covered with white cloth not far away, raising his hand and weakly poking his chest, "If I don't come to chat with you on behalf of those brothers, this place... is uneasy."

"You don't know how happy they were to see you kill so many high-level兽兵(shou bing - beast soldiers) before they sacrificed themselves, it's just a pity they couldn't thank you in person... cough cough cough!!"

"Cough cough... cough cough cough!!" As he spoke, the captain coughed severely again.

Thick blood flowed from his mouth, dripping on his clothes and the ground.

Looking at the dripping scarlet blood, Lin Ye fell silent again.

He looked again at the white cloth covering the area not far away, and in the end, did not continue to persuade him.

"Lend me a cigarette!" Lin Ye suddenly said.

"Huh?" The captain was stunned for a moment.

Then, he tremblingly took out the crumpled cigarette case, took out one and handed it to Lin Ye.

Lin Ye took it, lit it, and handed it to Captain Lu Gang.

He looked at the white cloth, his expression serious, and said: "Captain Lu Gang, please say a word for me, Lin Ye, to them."

"They are all good men, worthy of the glory of the Great Xia soldiers defending their land against the enemy."

"Even if their souls return to the yellow earth, they are worthy of our learning!"

After saying that, Lin Ye pulled out a tooth from the Beast General giant wolf's mouth: "Not only the sacrificed warriors, you are also a good man!"

"I'll give you this wolf tooth, I hope the next time I see you, it won't be this level of warrior badge!"

"Go get treatment first!"

Lin Ye's gaze quietly swept over Lu Gang's arm, and he said bluntly.

"Okay!"

Hearing his words, Lu Gang nodded heavily, then solemnly gave Lin Ye a military salute, and turned to leave.

"Having such warriors is truly the luck of the Great Xia people!"

Watching Lu Gang limp away, Lin Ye couldn't help but sigh: "With such a spirit of eternal flame being passed down, even if the beast tide is bigger and more terrifying, it cannot cause our country to perish..."

"May the eternal flame last forever, never to be extinguished!"

Withdrawing his gaze, Lin Ye blinked, dispelling the mist in his eyes, and continued to dissect the remaining parts of the Beast General.

When Lin had collected all the materials from this monster, another figure appeared beside him.

It was the middle-aged military officer who commanded the overall situation - Zhanlong Regiment Commander Li Yunfei.

"I am Li Yunfei, the commander of this defense force, thank you for joining us, otherwise we would definitely have suffered a lot of losses!"

"Regiment Commander Li, hello, I am Lin Ye." Lin Ye said neither humble nor arrogant.

"No need to thank me too much, all the monsters I killed this time will be recorded by the military department, and corresponding rewards will be given!"

"My Zhanlong Regiment is still short of a deputy commander, I wonder if you have any ideas?"

"Recruiting me?" Hearing this, Lin Ye was slightly stunned, and secretly said in his heart: "And with the position of deputy commander, it's really worth spending a lot of money!"

"But for the time being, I'm afraid it won't work!" Lin Ye shrugged helplessly, politely declining Li Yunfei's good intentions.

Joining the army would most likely limit his performance and growth...

From his current point of view, becoming a free mercenary was the best choice.

As for the future, Lin Ye didn't think much about it.

He just wanted to kill monsters and become stronger, using the money from monster materials to support his sister until the day she was cured.

Before that, he would not consider joining any forces.

Lin Ye's mind raced, and he quickly firmed up his thoughts.

At this time, his gaze turned to a button in front of him, revealing a meaningful smile.

"..." Li Yunfei's mouth twitched slightly: "So it's a hunting detector specially prepared by the military for warriors."

After he finished speaking, Lin Ye slowly shook his head and said, "Thank you for the regiment commander's kindness, I am currently employed by the South Bank Military Region and have no plans to join the army for the time being."

Li Yunfei: "..."

He keenly captured the change in the regiment commander's emotions, looked at Li Yunfei, and slowly said:

"If I want to join someday, I hope the regiment commander won't mind."

"Of course, who would dislike a powerful warrior with endless potential like you?"

Li Yunfei smiled, responding to the young man's comfort.

"But there's something I have to say first," Lin Ye added.

Li Yunfei: "Mr. Lin Ye, please speak."

"If your department has any major operations in the future, I am willing to help for a fee!"

"No problem!" The middle-aged military officer nodded, feeling very satisfied with making friends with such a warrior.

Next, their Zhanlong Regiment did indeed have several fierce battles.

The more warriors they needed, the stronger the better.

After speaking, the two exchanged contact information for later communication.

Soon, he used a large wolf skin to pack all kinds of valuable materials dissected from the Beast General giant wolf.

Dragging the wolf skin package, the young warrior general walked towards his off-road vehicle with great satisfaction...

Watching the direction he left, Li Yunfei's eyes burned with heat.

This is the confidence of an elite warrior!

With strength, courage, and a strong confidence to move forward and become more and more courageous!

His future is definitely limitless!

When Lin Ye turned into a small black dot in Li Yunfei's eyes, he slowly withdrew his gaze.

Then he called the messenger and began to order.

"Quickly clean up the battlefield, rebuild the fortifications, and replenish ammunition resources..."

"Received!"
