Chapter 442 Military Mission, Clear Out!

Eastern Federation.

36 Barriers.

"Captain Jiang Chen, thank you for making such a special trip."

A man with the rank of colonel smiled and looked at Jiang Chen, who was also in military uniform, and said, "Although I have heard of him for a long time, I still want to say that he is so young when I see him with my own eyes."

"Colonel Cui, you are too kind. I am just lucky."

Jiang Chen saluted Cui Xu and said, "If it were not for your protection, I would not be qualified to live such a leisurely life."

"Don't belittle yourself. We have all heard about your performance in the evaluation competition."

Cui Xu laughed and said, "You are now hailed as the youngest genius in the history of the Federation, and you are destined to become a shining existence."

Good fellow, what is this all about...

Jiang Chen was speechless. These media are really good at spreading rumors. Isn't it pushing him to the opposite side of all the young generations to promote himself like this?

Why are there so few media like Polaris that only report events and do not guide public opinion...

"Colonel Cui, what do I need to do?"

Hearing Jiang Chen directly mention the mission, Cui Xu stopped being polite and got straight to the point.

"I will have someone prepare the specific mission details for you. Let me tell you the general situation first."

Cui Xu's face became serious and he said, "There is only one content for this mission, clearing up!"

"Clearing up?"

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows. This kind of mission happens almost every day in the 318 Barrier. There is no need to go to such great lengths, right?

"Very confused, right?"

Cui Xu shook his head and said, "The clearing up mission I'm talking about is not just killing evil spirits, but clearing up in the literal sense."

"The evil spirits killed must not leave any corpses behind!"

When Cui Xu said this, he subconsciously released a murderous aura around him, and he could vaguely feel some hatred.

No corpses can be left behind...

Jiang Chen's mind turned quickly and he reacted quickly.

The eastern wilderness of the Federation is the range of activities of the Death Calamity - Hades Servant.

"Are there undead approaching the Federation?"

Jiang Chen directly pointed out the topic, and Cui Xu did not hide Jiang Chen's intention at all, saying: "Yes, the evil spirits under the Death Calamity Servant have been very active during this period of time, and have developed a large number of undead in the wilderness."

"If these undead are allowed to develop, it will be difficult to resist with our current military strength. After all..."

Speaking of this, Cui Xu looked up, and the meaning was self-evident.

The Federation's largest protection mechanism, the natural moat.

Since the South Territory Fire Unicorn Disaster, the natural moat defense layer in various parts of the Federation has had loopholes. Although it is not completely broken, the defense strength is indeed not as strong as before.

To be honest, Jiang Chen has been fully devoted to the evaluation competition recently, and almost forgot about this.

Not much, the eastern part is not just relying on the natural moat and the military for defense.

"Then, what about the Ye family?"

Cui Xu: "... The Ye family has always been the core force in the east, but recently the Ye family seems to have other things to do, and has withdrawn a lot of manpower, which directly caused the pressure here to surge."

Speaking of this, Cui Xu looked ashamed and said: "The duty of a soldier is to defend the Federation. I shouldn't say these words."

"It's just..."

"I understand."

Jiang Chen said solemnly: "The duty of a soldier is indeed to defend the Federation, but it's not just the soldiers who defend the Federation."

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Cui Xu looked at Jiang Chen with a much softer look.

"Thank you for your understanding, but this kind of thing does not need to be done by non-military personnel."

Cui Xu returned to his previous appearance and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. The sphere of influence of the Dark Servant is not far from the east. What we are doing now is more to prevent trouble before it happens."

"Originally, I planned to arrange patrols near the border, but General Cao called in person and asked you to join the clearing team. I can only obey the order."

"Teacher's order?"

Jiang Chen understood. The teacher's text message only asked him to come to the east to help, but did not mention the specific task.

It seems that the teacher wants to take this opportunity to let him settle down in actual combat.

After all, his improvement has indeed been a bit fast during this period.

"That's right, but don't worry, I won't let you act alone. I have arranged a team for you to act with you."

"Don't get me wrong, this is not a special treatment. All the clearing teams act in teams."

Cui Xu smiled and said, "Although we are not directly adjacent to the disaster like the 318 barrier, there are still many evil spirits."

"Understood."

Jiang Chen understood that if a map was used to mark the Federation and the wilderness, the Federation would be completely surrounded by the wilderness.

It can be said that no matter which border of the Federation there are endless evil spirits. The reason why it is divided into four regions of southeast, northwest, and even the four major financial groups are stationed separately is simply because there are great natural disasters in these four places.

Adjacent to the northern border, the fighting disaster, the Thunder Breaker.

The food disaster, the sweetheart dragon, who is careless about the southern region but has a changeable personality.

Looking to the east, the death disaster, the Hades Servant, who controls corpses in the dark.

Located in the West Ridge, the heart disaster, the heartless one, is famous for playing with souls.

Among the five disasters, in addition to the hot-tempered and homeless prison disaster-Yan Mo, there are four big disasters near the Federation.

It is precisely because of this that the Federation cannot open up more living space. Instead, those evil spirits rely on the fact that humans dare not go out easily and reproduce wantonly around.

It can be said that as long as you leave the natural defense layer, it is dangerous no matter where you are.

"I understand. You have been in the 318 fortress, so you should be able to adapt quickly."

Cui Xu smiled and said, "By the way, do you have any requirements for your companions?"

"Requirements?"

Jiang Chen was stunned. Didn't the military assign them directly? How could he make requirements?

"In the military, the system is above all else, but... some small things can still be taken care of."

Cui Xu said: "Although it wasn't long, I also worked under General Cao. It's rare that General Cao asked me to do something, so of course I will help if I can."

"You don't have to care. After all, reasonable allocation is more helpful to the survival rate of the combat team."

After hearing this, Jiang Chen also understood and became more curious about his teacher's past.

He is called the Northern Butcher, but his popularity is unexpectedly high.

Or maybe soldiers are more interested in this type?

"Thank you, Colonel Cui."

Jiang Chen thanked him immediately, and then asked: "Are all these teams from the military?"

"Not all of them. Just like the practical courses at Yunyin University, the military has cooperation with many organizations, and some idle imperial envoys in the civilian world will also obtain information about evil spirits through the military."

"Of course, we will only assign simple tasks to them. Such clearing tasks are given to several familiar organizations, so you don't have to worry about the combat effectiveness of the members."

"I see, it can be done this way."

Jiang Chen suddenly realized that the feeling of Barrier No. 36 is completely different from Barrier No. 318. It is a bit like an adventurer's guild?

That's right. The Ye family guarding the east likes to recruit talents from other families. It is reasonable that this place will be affected.

However, this is good.

"Colonel Cui, I have thought of the team I want."

...

"Brother Chen, is this really okay?"

Wen Quan looked at the sword logo on his collar and felt a little uneasy.

"Of course, I'm only letting you do this after I've confirmed it."

Jiang Chen grinned and said, "Anyway, we're going to enter the wilderness anyway. Registering as a mercenary can also help us complete some tasks. Why not do it?"

"It's amazing that you can think of this, President. You still don't forget to make money at this time."

Xiao Yan played with the mercenary badge in his hand and said with a smile, "President, if you really need money, just go out and endorse some products, right?"

"Ahem... I'm doing this for the mission, don't talk about money."

Jiang Chen turned his head away with a guilty conscience. The Imperial Envoy would obtain intelligence from the army, and the army would naturally issue some tasks.

And these tasks are of course paid.

And the rewards are quite considerable!

Although Jiang Chen still has more than 10 million in savings, after seeing the level of life cores required for the third-level fruit trees, Jiang Chen has already foreseen the scene of his bankruptcy.

More than 10 million is just a dozen ordinary gold life cores.

It's not enough...

It's time to brush up another wave of merits and improve my discount... No, improve my military rank.

"Okay, you are the boss anyway, I will listen to you."

Xiao Yan stretched and said: "But let me make it clear first, this young master is only responsible for vigilance and investigation, don't ask me for combat."

At this point, Xiao Yan's expression suddenly became resentful.

"For your request, the young master has offended Mo badly, so you can only blame yourself, the president."

"It's okay, it's enough for you to concentrate on vigilance."

Seeing Xiao Yan's obviously frustrated look, Jiang Chen grinned, then looked at Wen Quan who was still a little excited, and said: "Wen Quan, you don't have to participate in the battle, just be responsible for handling the materials, and try your new inventions by the way."

"Oh... oh, okay, I can do this."

Wen Quan nodded, but still a little worried.

"But the wilderness is so dangerous, isn't it a bit risky for the three of us? After all, the place we are going to is..."

Wen Quan suddenly paused, and waved his hand to explain, "Brother Chen, don't misunderstand me. I don't think you are not strong enough, but..."

"I understand what you mean, but those places are not useful just because there are many people."

Jiang Chen patted Wen Quan's shoulder, and his mind flashed back to the experience in the canteen in the wilderness.

The real goal of their trip was the forbidden land, so Wen Quan's worries were understandable.

But if they were the type that would separate people, too many people would only become a burden.

And their current group configuration was enough!

"Let's go, time waits for no one, and the vacation that my senior sister approved for me is only two months, so we can't waste any more time."
