Chapter 54: All Gathered, Operation Commence

The battle had ended just as it barely even started. With only 8 times the gravity was enough to suppress both the Windchaser and T-Rex squad to the point of immobility, let alone fight.

“Convinced now?”

“Yeah!”

“Absolutely!”

“Very good!”

Ling Jiu nodded with satisfaction. “Let me introduce myself. I’m Ling Jiu, and I’m 16 years old with Dual Arcana, Earth Manipulation and Gravity Manipulation. Current level, Level 4!”

“Sixteen years old!!!”

“Level 4 Arcanist!!!”

The reactions of all of the squad members were very animated. Although it was obvious that Ling Jiu was very young, they never expected him to only be 16 years old.

16 years old!

The youngest among them was already 31 years old and was exactly twice Ling Jiu’s age. In the end, all of them thoroughly lost to Ling Jiu.

What were they doing?

However, a 16-year-old Level 4 Arcanist did indeed shock them. Ling Jiu was a veritable genius, and his future achievements were far beyond comparison to the likes of them.

“Cap’n, you’re too strong!”

“One word: Awesome!”

“You’re Ling Jiu? I’ve heard that our company had recruited a twin-Arcana genius, could that person be you?”

…

After a brief shock, all of the squad members came together to either compliment or to voice their admiration. They had totally shed their previous unruliness and disdain as they were fully convinced now.

Ling Jiu chatted with them for a bit, and after getting to know one another, he said this before he left.

“Oh right, I still prefer you guys with unruliness at first, try to get that back!”

…

Early next morning, Ling Jiu arrived at the company early, and then went to the city hall with his squad members where they will rendezvous with other Arcanists.

“Ol’ Chen, long time no see. I see you’ve gotten much rounder now, where did you strike gold recently?”

After arriving at the city hall, the Arcanists from other companies arrived one after another as they got together and chatted.

The time was 10 o’clock, and all 200 Arcanists had arrived. The government leaders and senior company officials then made a simple speech.

“As we all know, our Lantian Base City relies upon Hanzhong Base City for much of our supplies, and now that the logistics are interrupted, it will seriously threaten the survival of the 5 million people in our base city!”

…

“It is utmost urgent for us to restore the safe passage, and I ask of you to clear the Direbeasts from the safe passage so that we can resume the supply lines!”

The leaders spoke one after another, and the crowd began to board their respective vehicles. This time, it was in a maglev airship.

The maglev airship was like a giant football as it stood quietly in the square. There were more than 200 seats lined up neatly, and the small table in front of the seats was filled with fruits and drinks.

Ten minutes later, the maglev airship took off and activated stealth mode as it disappeared over the city hall.

Sitting next to Ling Jiu was the captain of the Windchaser Squad, Chen Feng, and the captain of T-Rex Squad, Huang Hailong, and the two were chatting away.

“Pah, the feeling of riding a maglev airship sure is different. I can’t even feel any shaking, if I have the money, I’ll also buy one for myself!”

“Heh, dream on!”

Huang Hailong spat. “This Tempest H9 Maglev airship is worth 3.6 billion. With your earning speed, you’ll probably have no hope of earning that amount in this lifetime!”

“Ol’ Huang, shut up…”

Listening to the two old men poking fun at each other, Ling Jiu felt somewhat interested, he had to say, sitting on a maglev airship did indeed feels very different.

He could not feel any trace of wind, nor any noise, nor any vibrations, as if he was sitting stably on the ground.

Ling Jiu had to admit that he was also tempted. The maglev airship purchased by the city hall was mainly used to transport government personnel, so the interior layout was like an airplane: too many seats!

So the space was relatively small.

If it was a private airship, then he could customize it according to his needs, and make it like a house, with a bedroom, living room, toilet, training room…

Imagine that:

Hunting Direbeasts during the day.

Resting in the airship at night.

What was the difference between the wilderness and staying at his own home then?

“If I have spare cash, I can probably buy one to play around with!” Ling Jiu thought to himself.

“Everyone!”

At the moment, the operation coordinator, Xu Yuanhui walked to the small podium at the front of the airship. The big screen behind him had been lowered, showing the scene of the wilderness.

“Before the operation begins, let me brief you on the main tasks of our operation!”

Xu Yuanhui held a baton and pointed toward the big screen. “The safe passage between Lantian and Hanzhong is 418 kilometers long!”

Everyone listened quietly.

“We need to pass through the Qin Mountains and Daba Mountains along the way! As we all know, the Qin Mountains and Daba Mountains have a large number of Direbeasts in them, so this operation will be tough, and I hope all of you mentally prepare yourself in advance!”

Xu Yuanhui’s face was solemn. “Earlier on, we had used drones to recon, and there are 36 main packs of Direbeasts along the safe passage!”

“We and Hanzhong Base City are in charge of 18 packs each, and the 18 packs we are responsible for are entrenched in Chenggu, Xiaojingou, Shangba River, Longquan Town, Dianling, Xishui River, and Mopan Bay…”

“Among them, the two Direbeasts packs entrenched in Meizi Town and Heihuya Mountain is the strongest, with all of them being Class 5 Direbeasts, while the rest are Class 3 and Class 4 Direbeasts!”

“Our preliminary plan is to fan out and eliminate the 16 Class 3 and Class 4 Direbeasts packs, then regroup before taking out the last two Class 5 Direbeast packs!”

Having said that, Xu Yuanhui looked at everyone and asked, “Do you have any differing opinions on my arrangement?”

Everyone shook their heads.

Xu Yuanhui nodded slightly. “In that case, I’ll be assigning the missions, first is, Pangu Arcana Combine!”

Xu Yuanhui looked at Ling Jiu and the rest. “Your mission is to eliminate the Class 3 beasts entrenched in Xishui River, any objections?”

The members of the Windchaser and T-Rex squads all looked at Ling Jiu one after another. He was the captain of this operation, so everything would be decided by him.

“Class 3 Direbeasts are too weak!”

Ling Jiu faintly said, “Isn’t there a Class 4 Direbeast in Longquan Town? Let us handle Longquan Town as well!”

“The Class 4 Direbeasts, can you deal with them?”

Just as Ling Jiu’s voice fell, a black-faced strong man with a beard spat coldly. “Boy, killing Direbeasts is not the same as playing house, if not done right, someone might die!”
