Chapter 688: Calculate Military Merit



After all, his face was too unfamiliar, and it was the first time he was seen coming to the 7th campground.

In their eyes, Lin Xun was a lamb to be slaughtered.

When they heard the order from the commander, a dozen of them raced forward and stared at Lin Xun with murderous intent.

Lin Xun frowned. The beast skin manual did not explain how he should deal with such situations.

Fortunately, he had spent a good amount of time in Blood Kill Camp. He stood motionlessly in the same spot and the murderous look on his face was replaced by an indifferent and calm expression.

“Come on, let’s check if the kid is a spy!” A burly man rolled up his sleeve and was the first to rush forward.

He had an extremely sharp sense of smell, so he had already noticed that there were many good things in Lin Xun’s luggage.

Bang!

But, just as he was one foot away from Lin Xun, he felt a tremendous pressure bearing down on him like a mountain. Then, he sank to his knees with a thud.

The guards behind him staggered, and their expressions dramatically changed like they were drunk. It turned out that a wave of invisible mountainous force was oppressing them.

Immediately, they all fell to their knees, faces flushed. Crackling noises sounded incessantly from their knees.

“Are you not going to check my things? Why did you all suddenly kneel? Are you welcoming me?” Lin Xun asked in surprise.

Everyone was silent.

The other guards stationed near the watchtower gasped, realizing the strange situation.

Their comrades were all ruthless characters who had seen their share of dangers since no ordinary person could survive the Blood Kill Battlefield. But now, none of them could get near the kid and instead fell to their knees!

Unbelievable!

“Ridiculous!” roared a guard kneeling on the ground. He tried to force himself up, only to be pressed back down onto his knees and his bones almost crushed against the ground.

Lin Xun had already set foot to become an absolute apex king. He had honed his powers and strength through countless bloody battles. Even Heaven Ascension experts wouldn’t stand a chance against him, let alone the guards who only had Spirit Sea Stage strength!

Kacha!

The guards twitched and trembled on the ground as if a mountain was crushing their bodies. Their faces were deathly pale, their foreheads were beaded with cold sweat and their bones and muscles were constantly crackling. They seemed to be on the verge of collapsing.

The pressure was getting greater and greater!

If this continued, their flesh would rupture and their organs would be crushed.

Horror flooded them. They finally realized that the lamb was a wolf in sheep’s clothing!

The commander cried out in the watchtower, “Friend! Let’s talk first!”

He couldn’t help but inhale sharply. That kid can oppress the guards with just his aura alone.

He rushed down from the watchtower.

“Aren’t you guys the ones who didn’t want to talk?” Lin Xun swept a cold glance over the commander.

The guard commander felt as if an invisible blade was pressing against his throat. The deadly and dangerous aura emitting from Lin Xun made him break out in cold sweat as though he had fallen into an ice cave.

He was scared out of his wits. Anyone who could stand on the Blood Kill Battlefield had to have a strong sense of danger. The guard commander realized that the teenager who came alone under the cover of night was no doubt a terrifying and fierce character.

“Lord, we apologize for offending you! Please forgive us!” The guard commander bowed respectfully, his heart thumping with indescribable nervousness.

Lin Xun quelled the oppressive pressure and said, “It is my first time here. I don’t understand the rules or anything so if I offended you just now, I hope you won’t mind.”

The guard commander heaved a sigh of relief, wiped away the beads of cold sweat on his face, and put on a smile, “We were too ignorant and offended you. We are already very glad that you forgive us.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” The guards staggered up from the ground. There was an obvious tinge of fear in their eyes when they looked at Lin Xun.

The guards near the watchtower looked at each other in dismay, realizing that they had encountered a difficult situation, so they dared not speak any nonsense.

Lin Xun had built a commanding image. Both in the Blood Kill Camp and the military camp, one had to display their strength to subdue the experienced characters.

Lin Xun also didn’t want to make a big fuss. With a thud, he tossed the huge luggage to the ground and dusted his hands. “I told you guys that I don’t know the rules. Since you guys want to check my belongings, go ahead. I was only rude and unwilling before because of your attitude.”

The guard commander and the others all looked at each other awkwardly. They told him it was an inspection, but in truth, they were just being greedy and coveted the things in his bag.

Lin Xun’s polite attitude made the commander more and more certain that he wasn’t an ordinary character. He pondered for a moment and said, “Okay, the rules have to be followed. Let’s quickly inspect the bag and let the lord into the campground.”

The nearby guards obeyed.

The so-called inspection was only for show. Everyone could tell that Lin Xun couldn’t possibly be a spy of the Magi Brute Race.

But since Lin Xun insisted, they had to cooperate.

However, when they opened the bag that was stuffed like a hill, a burst of audible gasps filled the area.

Bloody spoils were everywhere!

There were too many!

Most of them were spoils from Brute Warriors, but there were also spoils from Great Magi experts!

“Heavens! There are around nineteen Great Magi-level badges of military merit and over one hundred Brute Soldier level badges of merit!” The guard commander gasped, the fear in his eyes deepening when he looked at Lin Xun. That teenager is too ruthless!

The fact that he had accumulated so many bloody badges of merit by himself proved how abnormal his strength was.

“Hey! That severed hand seems pretty unusual.”

Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the campground. It was a gray-robed old man with a white beard, hair and even brows.

As he neared the spoils, his eyes were fixed on the severed hand. “Where did you get that severed hand?” he exclaimed in surprise.

“Who are you?” Lin Xun frowned.

The guard commander quickly introduced him to Lin Xun, “My lord, this is Lord Lu Wenting, the quartermaster of our 7th army camp. He is in charge of the barracks’ supplies.”

Lin Xun nodded and asked, “Is there something wrong with the severed hand?”

Lu Wenting didn’t care about Lin Xun’s cold attitude. He shook his head and answered, “There’s no problem, it’s just that...the severed hand is from an expert of the Darkness Tribe imperial family.”

Si!

Gasps rang out and all the nearby guards were dumbfounded. A severed hand of the Darkness Tribe imperial family?

Heavens!

Did the young lord kill an imperial family member of the Darkness Tribe?

They knew that the Darkness Tribe imperial family members were regarded as top assassins, equivalent to the peerless geniuses of the human cultivators.

They were skilled in assassination techniques and escaping arts like the king of the shadows. Even great Cyclic Derivation cultivators would struggle to capture them.

And now, a severed hand of the Darkness Tribe imperial family had appeared in front of them, which meant…

All eyes shifted to Lin Xun simultaneously.

But Lin Xun looked taken aback. “So that guy is a descendant of the Darkness Tribe imperial family. No wonder he was so difficult to kill…”

His face became overcast at the thought of the shadow man. It’s a pity. I was so close to killing that guy!

After getting confirmation from Lin Xun, the guard commander and the others became speechless. It’s true…

“Little friend, you must be eager to exchange your military merits. Please come with me.” Lu Wenting seemed to attach great importance to the severed hand. Without asking about Lin Xun’s background, he guided him into the army camp.

“All right.” Lin Xun nodded and followed Lu Wenting into the barracks.

Watching them disappear into the distance, the guards let out a long sigh, still shuddering at the thought that they almost angered an unfathomable monster!

……

The barracks were brightly lit. Many buildings were densely but orderly built along the mountainside.

Night had fallen, but the barracks was still very lively. Cultivators from the empire could be seen everywhere, and all of them had a powerful and unique iron-willed aura.

It was forged from years of fighting, which ordinary cultivators would never possess.

Army Camp Store.

Lu Wenting quickly arranged for two of his subordinates to help Lin Xun count the spoils, while he picked up and examined the severed hand closer.

After a moment, he raised his head with a strange expression. “There is no doubt that this is a severed hand of a descendant of the Darkness Tribe imperial family. The hand is marked with the shadow sword totem which is unique to the Darkness Tribe imperial family. It can’t be forged but…”

As though Lin Xun knew what Lu Wenting was going to ask, he interrupted, “He’s not dead.”

Lu Wenting sighed in disappointment, “That’s right, how would such a peerless character be killed so easily?”

Lin Xun did not explain what happened. Although he was confident that he could kill him, his opponent had been rescued in the end. No matter how he explained, no one would believe it.

However, Lu Wenting confirmed Lin Xun’s speculation. The gray shadow man was indeed a special character with an extraordinary background!

“Lord, everything has been counted. There are a total of nineteen Great Magi-level badges of military merit and 216 warrior-level military merits. They can all be added up as one second-class merit and two third-class merits,” the two subordinates stated respectfully.

They couldn’t help but survey Lin Xun with a glance of awe, as though they didn’t expect a teenager to achieve such a feat!

“No, this severed hand must be added to his achievements.”

Lu Wenting then said decisively, “I’ll consider it as two second-class merits! Oh, by the way, little friend, what’s your name and which military camp are you from?”

He looked at Lin Xun apologetically. He had been so focused on the severed hand that he had forgotten to ask about the youth’s background.
