Looting the life force of demons to forge a golden body Martial God-Chapter 377 - 365: A Warm Welcome, Generosity, the Respect and Adoration of all the Warriors! Swiftly Surrendering by Bringing Down the Roof
Chapter 377: Chapter 365: A Warm Welcome, Generosity, the Respect and Adoration of all the Warriors! Swiftly Surrendering by Bringing Down the Roof
Having traversed nearly the entire Far East Defense Line to return to his station, it was already evening.
"A warm welcome to Captain Chu Feng on his triumphant return!"
"Hard work, Captain Chu Feng!"
"..."
Seeing the scene of many military officers waiting early at the entrance to the station, greeting him in rows with warm cheers, and presenting wildflowers they had picked with their own hands, Chu Feng felt elated inside.
This past month hadn’t been in vain!
He had earned the heartfelt respect and admiration from the entire Far East Defense Line military zone, from over sixty thousand soldiers!
Actually, what they respected wasn’t just his strength, which was nearly beyond comprehension.
It was also his spirit of generosity in sharing!
The staff of the Staff Department and the military artisans from the Logistics Manufacturing Department aside, those who were most grateful to Chu Feng were actually the numerous Junior Warriors that made up the bulk of the soldiers.
Before Chu Feng’s arrival, aside from their paltry monthly military merits income, it was almost impossible for soldiers to earn additional military merits.
Every Martial Artist wanted to become stronger, to obtain better Cultivation Techniques, more powerful Martial Techniques, Sturdier weapons and armor, as well as more cultivation resources.
Getting stronger was not only the obsession of Martial Artists; it was also the guarantee to improve their chances of survival during wartime.
But the meager monthly military merits salary could hardly be exchanged for any treasures!
Using it to exchange for some daily Cultivation Pills would leave one totally broke, might help push their practice forward, but they could forget about any Cultivation Techniques or Martial Techniques.
In fact, this could also be considered a benefit of the military’s internal system, as long as one enlisted, they could ensure the normal progress of cultivation.
Those who worked for the powerful factions and consortia, if not diligent in their work and just trying to get by, wouldn’t even be able to afford the resources needed to maintain their Realm.
Only when going out to battle did the soldiers have the chance to earn large amounts of military merits, but without exception, they had to risk their necks.
...
But when Chu Feng arrived, everything changed!
Each time Chu Feng went out, not long after, the top would issue military orders, sending six thousand soldiers to the Demon Clan-occupied areas for clean-up tasks.
In the beginning, when they were first deployed, the first batch of soldiers was quite nervous, thinking that this meant going to war with the Demon Clan.
The Demon Extermination Army had no cowards, and even if frightened, none would admit to it, but nobody wanted to die, and if they could avoid combat, they would definitely want to.
Once on the battlefield, life and death were out of their hands; even the strongest Martial Artists could die to surprise attacks and accidents.
But to their surprise, they indeed arrived at a Demon Clan camp, which was filled with dead bodies!
There were bombs still emitting wisp of poisonous gas everywhere, along with the poisoned corpses of Demon Beasts, numbering in the tens of thousands!
Following the officer’s orders, many soldiers, frightened, put on gas masks and started to harvest materials that could be recovered from the Demon Beast corpses.
At the same time, they were intensely curious, who had killed all these Demon Beasts?
Who had the capability to entirely slaughter a Demon Clan camp!
Some even saw from a distance the Inner City completely leveled to the ground, and the deep pit within it.
After picturing the combat scenario in their minds, they turned pale.
Such destruction could only be caused by a very high level expert clashing!
Could it be that Commander Lin had taken action?
Then, the news that they got from the officers spread to their ears.
It was Chu Feng!
He was the one who had orchestrated this terrifying slaughter, and the shocking deep pit was the result of his surprise attack on the High-rank Demon Clan!
He even magnanimously allocated a full ten percent of the military merits to all the soldiers who came here for clean-up work!
The soldiers mentally estimated the number of Demon Clan members at the camp and the amount of military merits they could be converted into, and immediately fell into a frenzy.
These tens of thousands of Demon Clan, converted into military merits, might well exceed a million!
And now, Chu Feng had actually taken out at least one hundred thousand military merits to distribute among these bulk soldiers!
Just to come and do odd jobs, even tasks that civilian Hunters could do, they could earn at least one hundred military merits? Equivalent to one million Longhua Currency!
To purchase an Earth-Level Martial Arts Technique, only to need a few hundred military merits, after a few tasks, one could get their hands on one!
Who knew there could be such good fortune in the world? And that it could fall on us small soldiers?
Many warriors were caught up in an extreme frenzy, working their heads off like chickens injected with stimulants, while etching deep into their hearts the name of that strong and generous guy—
Chu Feng!
...
Having tasted the sweetness of victory, the warriors eagerly awaited Chu Feng’s next departure, hoping the benefits would fall on them again.
Some of them, during their breaks, would race to the entrance of the issuance office and stare inside longingly, like wives waiting for their husbands to return from war.
They were just waiting for the order from above, so they could get their hands dirty with the "filthy work" of clearing the battlefield.
Eventually, the military orders came down, but to their disappointment, it wasn’t their turn this time, but another group’s.
Later, they found out that this was also proposed by Chu Feng, with the intention of letting everyone have a share of the spoils, to prevent discontent.
From then on, tens of thousands of stationed warriors held Chu Feng in high regard.
After all, they were generally simple and knew how to be grateful.
They were deeply touched that a skilled fighter was willing to share the meat and let them drink the broth.
...
Chu Feng, surrounded by warriors, was ushered into the cafeteria and coerced into treating them, almost bursting from the enthusiastic feeding by his colleagues. freёnovelkiss.com
After eating, he wiped his mouth and fled amidst the warriors’ laughter, diving straight into Lin Zhong’s office.
"Old Lin..."
Egged on by adoration, Chu Feng casually called out, only to receive a fierce glare from Lin Zhong, "You’re calling me what? Looking for a beating?!"
Chu Feng laughed and pointed confidently out the window, "Beat me? I have sixty thousand brothers outside!
"At my command, they would come... and strip the tiles off this roof!"
Lin Zhong sneered, grabbing a piece of paper and pretending to tear it, "You’ve grown wings, huh? Planning on going against me?
"This temple is too small for your deity, I’m destroying this transfer order right now, you can go wherever you’re supposed to be..."
Startled, Chu Feng instantly sobered up, caving in on the spot and wailing, "My beloved Commander Lin! You can’t push me into the fire pit!"
He was truly frightened by the thought of being forcibly sent to work in another military zone—
fearing that he could not withstand the oppression and might, in a rage, kill his superiors and become Longhua’s most wanted criminal!
Then it would be hard to ever see the girl he loved again.
As for surrendering and being exploited... those words just weren’t in his dictionary.
Annoying!
"Not flexing your wings anymore? Not lifting my roof or stealing my tiles?" Lin Zhong sneered coldly.
"How could I? If I have reached this point today, isn’t it because you had my back all along? Chu Feng knows gratitude best!"
Chu Feng stepped forward with a flattering smile, took the transfer order from Lin Zhong’s hand, and examined it carefully.
Lin Zhong stiffened slightly, rubbing his fingers discreetly before snorting and handing him a card, "This contains your military merits, go see the list at the exchange yourself.
"Now get lost, you’re driving me nuts just by being here!"
"Alright, take care, wish you well!" Thick-skinned Chu Feng acted as if nothing had happened and turned to leave.
...
Standing at the window with hands behind his back, Lin Zhong watched Chu Feng’s retreating figure and rubbed his reddened fingers, suddenly feeling a twinge in his teeth.
"Damn it, now I’m no match for this son of a b*tch at all!"
A moment ago, when Chu Feng reached out to take the transfer order from his hands, Lin Zhong hadn’t wanted to give it up immediately.
If you want it, I give it—where would that leave my face?
But unexpectedly, Chu Feng appeared to exert little effort yet used a clever, irresistible force.
Without causing any damage to the paper, he took it straight out of his hands without Lin Zhong being able to stop him!
Lin Zhong touched his head and for once, revealed a bitter smile.
"The bastard is clearly in human form, where the hell does he get that freakish strength? What a freak!"
