Chapter 1308: 1308. Candidate

“I asked Jialan just now and Jialan told me she has no idea where Little White is.” Luo Chao arrived later than Han Xuya because she had gone to ask the starship’s mainframe, Jialan, first.

After hearing about Little White’s disappearance, Qi Long slowly stood up and said with certainty in his tone, “Little White probably went to find Boss.”

“But how could it know where Boss is when we don’t even know?” asked Han Xuya frustratingly.

“We can’t find Boss, but it doesn’t mean Little White can’t find him.” Qi Long let out a forlorn sigh. “Boss and Little White have a special way of communicating. Don’t forget how Boss found us in the first place.”

“But what if Little White got lost?” Han Xuya was still worried about Little White’s safety. Luo Chao nodded in agreement with a face full of concern. How could a tiny white blob be able to survive in the cruel harsh world?

“Don’t worry, Little White is very strong. It might even be stronger than us. Back then, didn’t Boss let out Little White in the wild from time to time? And didn’t Little White come back safely each and every time?” Qi Long patiently comforted them, slowly easing them out of their concerns. “If Little White can’t find Boss, I trust that it will find its way back to us.”

Han Xuya and Luo Chao remembered what happened in the past, and it was indeed just the same as what Qi Long had said. They temporarily stopped their worrying. They didn’t know whether they should hope for Little White to find its way to Boss or to not find him and come back. No matter which one it was, they hoped Little White was safe. In their hearts, Little White wasn’t just some pet, but rather their most loyal and reliable friend.

However, the next day, they didn’t have time to worry about Little White anymore, as the military headquarters had just notified them that all personnel in charge of Lingtian must participate in the military headquarters’ conference at 1pm.

Everyone had their doubt as they rushed to the conference room. Right as they were about to enter the conference room, they were informed by someone sent by Qi Yaoyang, who had been waiting for them, that this conference was about determining who should be Lingtian Independent Army and the 23rd Division’s highest ranking officer. The reason it was so sudden and why they weren’t informed beforehand was because the military headquarters didn’t want them to make any preparations, catching them off guard.

After hearing about it, everyone from Lingtian got nervous. However, they could do nothing about it now. The conference was about to start, and they couldn’t just delay it because they weren’t prepared beforehand

After entering the conference room, they saw the members of the military headquarters all in their respective seats. There were also a few representatives from ministries of government and representatives from other armies. They almost filled up the entire conference room.

Near the front of the conference room, there were a few rows of seats that faced each other on the left and the right side. Qi Long saw the chief of staff of the 23rd Division, He Xuyang, sitting in the center of the left side. Next to him was a female major general, Ms. Lan Luofeng.

Qi Long’s heart stopped beating for a moment. He turned around towards the name tags on the right side which showed the words ‘Lingtian Independent Army’. It seemed the seats on the right side were prepared for them.

Qi Long gave a look to his comrades, then led the way to the seats on the right side and sat down.

Besides Qi Long sat Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong. There were also the other brigade leaders and department heads sitting behind them.

After a short while, the large screen at the center of them suddenly lit up. Then it split into many smaller screens. In each of the screens, there was a stern looking general shown within it. Their ranks were from lieutenant general all the way up to general. These were all the generals of the 23 official divisions.

In the end, in the four screens in the middle, it showed the faces of the three marshals. On the fourth showed the Flying Dragon Special Forces highest commanding officer, who didn’t appear frequently on these occasions, Ren Feiyu.

Seeing essentially the decision makers of the Federation joining this conference caused a large commotion within the government’s representatives.

It should be known that only important matters would cause the three marshals, the generals and not to mention the person-in-charge of the Flying Dragon Special Forces to appear. Could this conference be so important that any decision made here would harm the foundation of the Federation?

Not only was there commotion in those seated below, even the three marshals didn’t understand why Ren Feiyu had requested to join this conference.

However, the reason Ren Feiyu had given them was reasonable. The 23rd Division was established by Ling Xiao and was considered to be special to the citizens of the Federation. The requirement for the next person in line to take command of the 23rd Division was quite high. Once the chosen individual did not satisfy the citizens or perhaps there was a flaw of some sort, it would cause the people of the Federation to protest against them. The results of that would be devastating. Ren Feiyu believed that a bad decision on their part could be bad enough to affect the peacefulness within the Federation and shake the foundation of the nation. In order to prevent this outcome from happening, the Flying Dragon Special Forces must come out and watch over this conference. They must make sure the next general of the 23rd Division has no underlying problems.

Although the three marshals were annoyed by Ren Feiyu’s rude remarks, they still couldn’t reject his proposal. After all, they also didn’t want the next general to have any problems in the future, giving Ren Feiyu a chance to uproot them. Although the supervision power of the Flying Dragon Special Forces was considered to be nothing by the three marshals, they still didn’t want them coming to their houses hounding them everyday. After all, dealing with them required time. As people who put time as the most valuable thing, they didn’t want to waste their valuable time with the Flying Dragon Special Forces.

The official time had reached 1p.m. The person-in-charge of the military headquarters, who was also the host for this conference, gestured for the door to be closed. After restricting anyone from entering and leaving, he spoke, “First, I would like to thank the three marshals and our generals for participating in this conference. Special thanks to General Ren Feiyu for attending as well.”

“For this conference, our first objective is to determine whether the rewards and merits given to the division who participated in the war against the Twilight Empire have been approved. The second objective in this conference is to discuss who will be the next general of the 23rd Division and who will be the commanding officer for the Lingtian Independent Army.”

Everyone had already prepared for the first objective of the conference. After all, there were only two days left until the award ceremony. The list of names needed to be approved before the ceremony started. However, the second objective came at a surprise to them. Although everyone knew that the 23rd Division and the Lingtian Independent Army needed a new leader, it was still a surprise to them.

The entire conference room was instantly filled with minute chatters everywhere.

“Hm hm.” The host coughed a few times and the crowd quickly fell silent.

“Now, we will announce the three candidates for the commanding officer of Lingtian Independent Army.”

“The first candidate is the 11th Division, 17th Brigade Leader, Major General Luo Zhiqun. The second is 6th Division, 3rd Brigade Deputy Leader, Major General Zhou Lirong. The third is Lingtian Independent Army, 3rd Brigade Leader, Major General Qi Long.”

The first two names were both major generals who were well known and around the age of 50. Only Qi Long seemed out of place from the three candidates. Everyone believed that even if the Lingtian Independent Army had an internal candidate, they would have thought it would be Yang Mingzhi or Liu Furong. After all these two were the deputy commanders of the army. Ranking them up by half a rank and becoming the commander was more logical. No matter if it was age or his position, Qi Long fighting for the position of commander seemed somewhat forced.

Some who knew about Qi Long’s background surreptitiously looked towards one of the small screens in the center where the 13th Division Commander, Qi Yaoyang was shown. Did Qi Long receive this chance because of his father helping him in the dark?
