Last Totem Novel - Chapter 309
Chapter 309 Initial Order
The next morning, after more than ten hours of flight, Sparrow Eagle 3 finally arrived at the Central Silver City Military Academy and slowly landed on the chaser apron. Last night, Tie Zha took into account Lena Euclid’s old relationship and didn’t leave her uncle behind the flying machine.
After walking down the telescopic stairs, Tie Zha took Hillman to the War God’s Hall. Then, he sat down in the lounge and called Qin Ke’er over with his communicator.
“Heavens! You really are a beautiful goddess.” Seeing Qin Ke’er, Hillman couldn’t help but stand up and exclaim.
Qin Ke’er was immediately shocked. She avoided the dementia-faced former and timidly asked Tie Zha, “Guild Leader, Ke’er is here.”
“Go call Bai Xiaoyun over.” Tie Zha asked. He originally wanted to call logistics officer Qin Ke’er to handle Hillman’s enrollment procedures, but when he saw his uncle’s idiotic appearance, he immediately changed his mind.
‘”Oh” Qin Ke’er pouted unhappily. If she notified Bai Xiaoyun to come over, she could just use the communicator directly. It would be useless for her to make such a trip.
“Goddess, what’s your communication number? Do I have the honor to record it?” As Hillman took out his communicator, he introduced himself, “My name is Hillman. It belongs to Commander Tie Zha …”
“Hurry up and go!” Tie Zha frowned and shouted at Qin Ke’er while interrupting Hillman.
“Wuwa ~ Ke’er will go immediately.” Seeing that Tie Zha was unhappy, Qin Ke’er hurriedly twisted her little butt and ran away.
Hillman murmured to himself as he watched the figure of the Iranian leave. “It’s really beautiful …” Looking at his uncle’s intoxicated appearance, Tie Zha only regretted not throwing him into the sea last night.
“You’re here to work, not to pick up girls.” Said Tie Zha.
“Don’t worry, I always work hard to pick up girls …” Hillman said leisurely.
“That’s my woman. Don’t try to hit on her in the future.” Helplessly, Tie Zha had no choice but to speak solemnly.
“Ah!” Hillman sighed, then said, “Are you worthy of my sister like this …” His voice was filled with grievances, as if she was a wife who had just been abandoned by her husband. “Are you worthy of me again?”
“What does it have to do with you!” Tie Zha couldn’t help but shout.
“Of course it matters. Think about it. You soaked all the beauties, how am I supposed to live?” Hillman said with a grim expression.
“Then go die!” Tie Zha couldn’t bear it anymore and scolded.
“Lord Wilderness Knight, don’t be angry, don’t be angry …” Sherman comforted softly, and then said, “How about this, let me make a suggestion.”
“Huh?” Tie Zha frowned, instinctively feeling that the other party would not say anything good.
‘”How about we exchange? Look, my fourth sister is not inferior to her. She looks a little similar to my little sister. Why don’t you make do with her first? As long as you agree, she can catch the next air train right away …”
“No need, thank you.” Tie Zha rubbed his forehead and said.
“Alright” Hillman shrugged helplessly, then asked, “Are you married?”
“Who?” “That little girl just now.” “No.” “It’s good that you’re not married.” “Right what?” “If you are not married, then our relationship is not protected by law. I have the right to pursue it.” Hillman argued.
“I’m sorry, the people of Tieshan Town generally don’t understand the law, and they seldom reason with each other.” Tie Zha threatened.
“I’m equally sorry. Our Hiroshi family never succumbed to the threat of violence.”
“You will yield.” Tie Zha said indifferently.
“Why?” Hillman raised his head and asked.
“Just because you’re a First Grade.” Said Tie Zha.
“Uh” Hillman was speechless for a long time.
After a while, Tie Zha looked at him and asked seriously, “Friend, you can’t even wear the first-generation psionic power armor. Why are you going to the bottomless abyss with me?”
The reason Tie Zha asked this was not because he looked down on Hillman, but because according to his understanding during this period of time, the air in the bottomless abyss not only contained too much oxygen, it was also mixed with toxins that could cause nervous flocculation, and the density of free energy far exceeded Silver City’s. Only psionic beings above rank eight, traditional evolvers and worm-forms with an evolution rate of more than 20% could directly breathe in the air. Ordinary humans, on the other hand, need to wear protective clothing and carry oxygen cylinders in order to survive.
There, low-level psionic artists could rely on the air filtration devices on the power armor to survive. However, Hillman was only a Tier 1 psionic artist, so he was unable to use the power armor. He could only use it like ordinary humans, which undoubtedly greatly increased the probability of death.
Hillman was silent for a moment and asked, “Didn’t you notice?” Only my fourth sister and I are left in the family … “he then asked himself,” and those capable Syros are out in the workplace, “Only Fourth Sister and I will stay at home, but I will soon be thirty years old. If I don’t come out for a walk, perhaps I won’t have a chance in the future. I don’t want to be a countryman in the Northern Wilderness. I’ve died in Sand City all my life, and I’ve never been anywhere, and I’ve never seen anything …”
“The bottomless abyss is very dangerous.” Tie Zha reminded.
“I know. The worst possibility is to lose your life. That’s all. What else can you do?” Hillman said.
“But your father” Tie Zha hesitated.
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Hillman smiled bitterly. “I’m not missing a single one of them.”
Tie Zha thought for a moment, then nodded, agreeing with him.
A few minutes later, Bai Xiaoyun rushed to the lounge. Tie Zha asked him to bring Hillman to complete the registration formalities. However, after a while, the two of them returned. Bai Xiaoyun said that Hillman was over 28 years old and could not complete the entrance procedures for the academy. He could only join the Wolf Legion as a temporary member.
“What’s the difference?” Tie Zha asked.
“Apart from the welfare of some students, the most important thing is that we cannot obtain any honor from the Academy Alliance.” Bai Xiaoyun replied.
“It doesn’t matter. My chances of winning the honor aren’t high.” Hillman waved his hand and said with great self-awareness. After all, the chances of an elementary psionic artist obtaining a battle merit were too low.
After discussing, Bai Xiaoyun brought Hillman back to the training area to familiarize the latter with the situation. After the two of them left, Tie Zha also left the War God Hall. He walked for dozens of minutes to Eva Green’s house on the Garden Street of Babylon.
When he saw his master, he asked impolitely, “Make me breakfast.”
‘”Yes, my lord” Eva smiled and nodded.
Not long after, the two of them came to the kitchen. Eva put on an apron and cooked breakfast. It had to be said that not only was Eva’s culinary skills first-rate, even her actions of peeling and cutting vegetables were neat and pleasing to the eye.
Sitting at the heavy oak dining table, Tie Zha drank warm water and asked, “Beginner Psionic Adepts, what methods do you have to increase your abilities?”
“How old are you?” Eva asked. Age was a very important criterion for psionic cultivators who relied on talent. Normally, the older they were, the less efficient their cultivation would be, unless they could reach a corresponding level.
“Twenty-nine.” Tie Zha replied.
“A twenty-nine-year-old beginner Psionic Adept” Eva stopped, turned to Tie Zha, and said seriously, “With all due respect, he’s like a piece of trash …”
“As for it?” Tie Zha asked.
Eva pointed at her chest and said, “Most people who haven’t comprehended psionic energy before they’re thirty will stay at this stage for the rest of their lives. Moreover, as they grow older, they might even slip down.” He said, “For example, I am twenty-four years old this year. If I can’t break through to the sixth rank within six years, I can only do so in this lifetime. As for that twenty-nine-year-old beginner rank, I can only wish him luck. Perhaps only a True God can change his fate.”
Then, Tie Zha asked if beginner psionic artists could temporarily upgrade their ranks by consuming liquid psionic energy regularly, thus reaching the standard of using first-generation power armor. Eva nodded her head, saying that she could, but the effect was very unstable, and there were also side effects and drug dependence.
‘”How troublesome” Tie Zha couldn’t help but sigh. This big uncle really gave him a bit of a headache. The other party might not be willing to stay at Dawn Stronghold. However, if he accidentally died, he didn’t know how to explain it to Layton.
Eva hesitated for a moment and asked, “May I ask, this twenty-nine-year-old beginner psionic artist … Is this Lord Tie Zha’s new girlfriend?”
‘”Uh” Tie Zha almost spat out the water he had just swallowed.
“Did Eva guess correctly?” “You got me wrong.” “Really?” “Really.” “But why do I feel like you’re lying to me?” “It must be an illusion.”
“What an affectionate little man.” Eva snorted and concluded.
Since he could not explain it clearly, Tie Zha was too lazy to explain. Actually, for Eva, there was no difference between having one more woman and having one less woman.
After breakfast, Tie Zha said goodbye to Eva and returned to the Atlantic Mansion.
However, not long after he entered, Wang Hu arrived before he could have a cup of black tea.
“Boss, our training period is over. We can leave at any time.” With that, he handed a list to Tie Zha.
Team Name: Wolf Legion
Guild Leader: Sa Chacha, equipped with [Wilderness Knights] Mechanical Power Armor
Assistant Guild Leader: Bai Xiaoyun
Power Armor Commando: Captain Jerome, Tuoba San, Marcus, equipped with standard mechanical power armor, scout matches, scout mechanical power armor, firepower support porcupines, equipped with defensive mechanical power armor
Marine Corps: Captain Mu Qianhe, 20 members.
Logistics Brigade: Captain Ju Ahmu, 35 logistical personnel.
Deputy Guild Leader Wang Hu, Chief Logistics Officer Qin Ke’er, Deputy Guild Leader Ma Wen, stayed at Tyre Stronghold to manage the Mech Brigade and the rest of the team.
“Jerome, is it suitable to be the captain?” Tie Zha put down the list and asked Wang Hu. Before this, because Jerome was from the War Beast Legion, Iron Slag had always placed him in a vacant position and didn’t give him any real power.
“He has proven his loyalty and courage in the Tyre Stronghold Guard Battle.” Wang Hu said solemnly.
Iron Slag immediately nodded and acknowledged the Deputy Guild Leader’s opinion. Next, the two discussed some further details and drew up the departure date. At dusk, Wang Hu postponed the invitation to dinner with Tie Zha and returned to the training area …
