1355: A Great Contribution! (1)

A Great Contribution! (1)

The war was finally over.

The remaining dark apparitions fled and scattered, but almost all of them were slayed by the human warriors and stayed there forever.

Only a small number of the monsters managed to escape through the dimensional rift.

Xuelun—the vampire that faced Wang Teng multiple times—was among the escapees.

Wang Teng felt a little helpless as he watched the fellow escape and him being unable to do anything about it.

He had already used Space Tornado twice, and was unable to summon another.

Looks like this grudge could only be recorded in his little notebook!

The dimensional rift in the sky disappeared since it was no longer maintained.

The creatures left in silence, filled with despair.

Perhaps they were biding their time for an invasion in the future…

However, they probably wouldn't return for some time.

The battle had hurt them, reversing the overall situation on Defense Planet No. 29.

After repelling the enemy's main forces, the remaining apparitions were no longer a threat; the human martial warriors were enough to clear them out and completely recover the planet.

From that day onward… it would no longer be a place where dark apparitions could set foot at will!

"Victory!"

Many warriors stood in silence. They looked at the blood on their hands, feeling that the whole thing was somehow unreal.

An unprecedented victory was presented to them. Even if they partook in the outcome, the idea was still unbelievable at the moment.

Victory came so suddenly they weren't ready for it!

The martial warriors looked at the fresh blood on their hands, and at their fallen comrades around them. Two lines of warm tears suddenly flowed on their blood-stained cheeks.

"Ugh…"

Low and suppressed whimpers came from their throats. They tried to hold back, as real men shed blood, not tears. However, it was too difficult to keep the tears from coming out.

Victory!

They really won!

Everyone looked around and finally confirmed the fact. Roars and cheers were suddenly heard.

…

Up in the sky—Wang Teng, General Cameron and the others looked down with relieved smiles.

Yes, they won!

It had been a tough battle, but they won in the end!

General Cameron was filled with emotion. He turned and looked at Wang Teng.

This peerless youngster single-handedly led us to victory!

Wang Teng too felt emotional.

It had been a hard won victory. There were many times he thought they were going to lose.

Also…

He looked down.

The ground was shattered, the towering mountains had been flattened and trees felled. There were traces of destruction everywhere.

It was a devastating sight.

There was black mist rising. Plants were withering and drying up; they were affected by the pervading dark force.

The land was barren across thousands of miles.

Life ceased to exist in places soaked with dark apparitions' blood.

Defense Planet No. 29 was once a thriving planet filled with life. Alas, the apparition invasion gradually turned the place into a barren land.

This time, the battle wrecked the sole remaining mountain range and forest. It would probably require thousands of years to recover.

Wang Teng sighed. The price of war was too great!

The apparitions were nothing but a scourge. No matter where they appeared, they would bring disaster and death with them.

He didn't know why, but the joy of victory was a tad less stellar when he thought about this.

He was a little upset.

General Cameron smiled and suddenly addressed the people!

"Everyone!"

All the martial warriors looked up, eyes fiery and respectful towards their general.

If it hadn't been for him tackling Devil Emperor Bare Brain and the horrifying dark behemoth, they would have been defeated and many martial warriors would have died in the hands of the enemy.

It was clear that the name of the man who led them to victory would spread in the Great Qian Empire.

However, his words left everyone stunned.

"We are victorious!

"But the credit is not mine. I want to thank someone!"

Everyone was taken aback by the message.

This isn't General Cameron's credit?

How is that possible?

Who has the strength to do such a thing?

Who's the one being thanked?

Countless questions appeared in everyone's minds while still focusing on General Cameron's face.

General Cameron, is he going to… Wang Teng's eyes flashed. He was a little surprised, already guessing what the general was planning to say.

He didn't expect the grand official to use that wording on such an occasion.0

"The person I want to thank is… Colonel Wang Teng!" said the leading general, not keeping them in suspense for too long. He looked at Wang Teng and smiled.

"What? Colonel Wang Teng?!" All the one's present looked at the young man in astonishment.

To be honest, they were all acquainted with the latter.

Wang Teng's performance had been eye-catching in the previous battle. He even dared to attack a devil titan, which changed everyone's impression of him and earned their admiration.

Everyone felt that the Tiger Strike Force's commander was truly outstanding.

Later on he destroyed the devil ovum and prevented a major disaster. No one knew how he did it, though, yet they understood that such a contribution wasn't small.

Still, the greatest contributor, it can't possibly be him!

The Tiger Strike Force's Peggy, Wang Teng and the other deputy commanders were scattered around the battlefield, nursing injuries of varying degrees; fortunately, none were life threatening. All the members were focused on Wang Teng. They were in shock, and sharing the same thought.
