Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Two hours later, all the personnel of the Gamma Military Zone arrived at Lunan City. They were fully prepared for a fierce battle, but they fell into a daze when they saw the sight that greeted them.

“Hahaha… You guys came too late. Everything has been settled earlier.” Wang Lu walked over, laughing heartily.

“Not bad, Old Wang. Your efficiency is pretty high. You made us worry for nothing.” The other two Generals pretended to pat their chests in fright.

If they were to lose one General due to any mishap, that would be their greatest loss ever since the Holy War.

“You guys really fucking think it’s my effort? I don’t take credit for nothing. I didn’t accomplish this feat. Rascal, show yourself and get to know these two guys well.” Wang Lu chided in a half-hearted manner.

Lu Yu, who was walking behind Wang Lu, had a surprised look on his face.

Successfully guarding a strategic city connecting the western region of Flame Country from the attack of an SS-class Fearsome Beast, and then killing that beast was a monumental achievement.

Such a great achievement was sufficient to add a stroke of glory to Wang Lu’s resume, giving him an excellent chance of promotion in the future. Yet Wang Lu did not grab the credit first. Lu Yu felt quite touched inwardly.

These two Generals were the Gamma Military Zone’s General Liu and General Li respectively. They looked at Lu Yu standing in front of them with surprise. Due to the last appointment of his title, they still had quite an impression of Lu Yu. At the same time, certain fairly substantial ripples spread out in their hearts and their expressions were somewhat odd.

From the look of things, this guy Old Wang was planning to take Lu Yu as his successor-in-training, vigorously promoting Lu Yu’s abilities.

“Military Lord!” Very soon, Xu Qingguo and Qi Lei arrived close behind.

All the cultivators of the First Military Unit stood up smartly and saluted respectfully. The cultivators of Lunan City and those who came to support in the rescue work all had the good sense to keep their mouths shut at this point, their eyes full of admiration.

It was the first time they had seen a Lord of a military zone up close.

Wang Lu reported the whole situation to Xu Qingguo.

He related how the Fearsome Beasts in the blood-sucking wasteland went on the rampage, attacking Lunan City endlessly. Then they discovered Du Feng was the culprit behind all this. Following that, the appearance of the SS-class

Fearsome Beast et al. As all these incidents were recounted, the expressions on Xu Guoqing’s face changed from the initial fury to shock, fear, and then finally relief.

One could imagine how hard the First Military Unit fought and what a huge price they paid to protect the city.

And the contributor with the biggest credit for all of this was Lu Yu! Xu Guoqing was more and more certain now that recruiting Lu Yu into the Gamma Military Zone was undoubtedly the correct decision.

“Good! You guys have worked hard. All of you who have participated in this battle to protect the city, whether you are from the Gamma Military Zone or from elsewhere, will be rewarded afterwards based on merit and receive the praise and honor you deserve. Heroes should not be overlooked.”

Xu Guoqing gazed at Lu Yu for a long while before turning his gaze on the crowd involved in protecting Lunan City.

When they heard they would receive commendations, Zhang Xilai and the other people were moved to tears. As veteran soldiers who had participated in the Holy War back then, what they coveted were naturally not the benefits, but to be recognized for their war efforts.

Next, after the First Military Unit took stock of the casualties, they all took their rest. The Second and Third Military Units took over all the rest of the tasks.

“Military Lord, I have one more thing to report here.” Lu Yu stayed back until he was the last person left. He reported everything the Ying family had been plotting in Lunan City without leaving out any detail.

After learning this, Xu Qingguo was at first shocked, and then furious. “How dare the Ying family try to grab all the mineral ore veins underneath Lunan City for themselves! Vermin! They are the federal government’s vermin! I must impeach them severely!”

Xu Qingguo then sent people to guard that underground mineral ore vein immediately and no one was allowed to go near it.

The moment he saw the real extent of that mineral ore vein, the shock on Xu Qingguo’s face became more pronounced. This mineral ore vein was far more enormous than he had imagined. If this discovery was put to good use, who knew how many powerful experts it could nurture for the federal government.

“Lu Yu, you have made a huge contribution this time. What kind of reward do you want?” Xu Qingguo patted Lu Yu’s shoulder and laughed heartily.

“The reward is secondary. This is what I should do. It is not my effort alone that protected Lunan City successfully. The other people made great contributions too.” Lu Yu said truthfully.

Xu Qingguo was feeling increasingly more pleased with Lu Yu. He had accomplished such a monumental deed, yet he did not get satisfied with his own achievement and became arrogant. People with such a nature were very rare.

“Hahaha… Military Lord, looks like this incident has caused quite a substantial chain reaction.” A few moments later, General Liu and General Li reported the situation to Xu Qingguo after inspecting the battlefield, their faces overflowing with joy.

All the Fearsome Beasts in Lunan City had vanished. This meant that this area under the jurisdiction of the Gamma Military Zone had completely fused into one region, and Lunan City’s connection to the other cities would become closer and tighter.

Two days later, news of victory arrived one after another.

The cultivators of the Gamma Military Zone went deep into the blood-sucking wasteland. After penetrating this region, they expanded outwards. Without the blood-sucking wasteland acting as a stronghold, the Fearsome Beasts that existed in the other places posed no threat to them.

All were slain under a vigorous purge. The territory that humankind lost was recovered in huge swathes.

This was a rare recovery of lost territory since that Holy War. One could imagine how much the entire Gamma Military Zone would be honored and rewarded by the federal government for such an extensive land expansion.

Meanwhile, Song Yu returned, bringing reinforcements from several large cities in the north. She was stunned when she saw the present situation.

“Good grief!” The reinforcement troops got a big shock, but a look of envy crept across their eyes.

From now on, the major areas of the Gamma Military Zone would join up completely into one region. Once they had taken stock of the resources in this area, the overall strength of the Gamma Military Zone would leave the other military zones in the dust.

“Brothers of the reinforcement troops, thank you for your trouble.” General Liu came forward to offer his thanks.

“General Liu, looks like we have come to Lunan City for a free sight-seeing tour.” The leader of the reinforcement troops said with a wry smile.

“Please don’t say that. I still have a lot of things to deal with here. I’m so busy that my head is spinning. You guys arrive here just in time. I need you guys to recover the other territories.” General Liu said with a smile.

The eyes of the leader of the reinforcement troops lit up. The Gamma Military Zone did not take this credit alone, but were willing to share with them. No matter how big or small, their efforts would definitely be noted down in the federal government’s record book of credits.

They had nothing to do initially, but now they were able to get a share of the credit. The leader felt a little embarrassed all of a sudden. He could not help but say solemnly, “General Liu, just issue us your instructions. We will definitely cooperate fully.”

At the same time, at the capital, Ji Xi had just brought back the news. Flame Country’s top brass was shocked. They dispatched their senior officer immediately, transferring troops from all over the country. Just when they were about to head out to Lunan City to recapture it, the news from the Gamma Military Zone arrived.

This news gave this senior officer and Ji Xi, who were preparing to head out, a big shock. If they had not seen this document with Xu Qingguo’s personal seal in front of them with their own eyes, they would have suspected that this news was a joke..
