C254 East Sea Patrol Inspector
Lu Chong wasn't a soldier, he couldn't even be considered an official of Flame Country.
At least, he was only a university student at the moment. At most, he was also an ancient martial arts researcher of the Jiangnan Martial Arts University.
He had every reason to refuse to participate in the war. He hid in the back and enjoyed peace. He was protected by those cute and respectable soldiers.
But at the same time, Lu Chong understood one thing. It was a fact that couldn't be avoided.
Every man was responsible for the rise and fall of the country!
Just as the seniors had said, if one of the defensive lines were to collapse, the entire country would be plunged into misery and suffering.
At that time, where could he hide?
Perhaps with his own strength, he could hide in a place and cultivate all the way until he was invincible under the heavens before coming out of seclusion.
However, was that still the world he was familiar with? How many people could still survive?
How many of his family and friends were there?
Lu Chong did not think he was the savior. He did not have the strength to do so, but he still had the basic understanding.
At most, he could retreat in time when things were not going to work out. At least, he would not regret it.
This was Yu Gong.
In private, Lu Chong also needed this kind of combat opportunity to sharpen his fighting style and create his own absolute art.
Retreating blindly would only wear down his courage, and in the end, he would become a true weakling.
Also, the invasion of the mutated beast was a disaster, but it also meant that there were unlimited resources. Every mutated beast's corpse was worth a lot of money.
Therefore, for both public and private reasons, Lu Chong could not shrink back.
Even without the suggestions of several seniors, Lu Chong would still take the initiative to invite them to the front line.
"Good!" Lee Qianqiu praised. "You are a wise and righteous young hero, worthy of your special grade Martial Meritocrats Honour."
"I will apply to the capital as soon as possible and grant you the title of East Sea Patrol Inspector." As the representative figure in charge of the capital, Lee Qianqiu decisively said.
"East Sea Patrol Inspector?" Lu Chong did not quite understand.
Chen Wudi explained, "Actually, he is the envoy who oversees the Devil City and the East Sea Coast defense line."
"You do not need to accept orders from anyone. You only need to be flexible in dealing with the Beast King powerhouses that threaten the coastline's defense line or the overly fierce beast tide."
"Within this scope of duty, if there is a need, even the soldiers of the military and the other Martial King warriors will need to cooperate with you." Chen Wudi said resolutely.
"Especially those Martial King who came from all over the place to assist you. We can't let them act recklessly during the war. Rushing into the formation randomly is very easy for them to get into trouble."
Lu Chong finally understood what was going on, and he could accept it. This was because the space he could freely use would be much bigger.
"Haha... Lu, I never thought that we would have the chance to fight side by side so soon."
Chen Wudi laughed heartily, "Every time we fight, there will be a list of battle achievements. If the virtual space isn't fighting to their heart's content, let's see what happens on the battlefield."
Lu Chong's competitive spirit was also aroused by Chen Wudi. He said confidently," Alright, I won't be polite either. I will compete with all the seniors. "
There would be a ranking list of battle achievements on the real battlefield. This was something that had never been missed since the ancient times.
It could motivate the soldiers to kill the enemies valiantly and also make it convenient for them to be rewarded for their contributions after the war.
This kind of statistics had all kinds of methods from ancient times until now. With the addition of scientific statistics, it was even more perfect.
In the contest with the seniors just now, Lu Chong lost more than he won. However, he did not feel that he would lose to anyone else on the real battlefield.
After another round of discussion, the few of them each withdrew from virtual space.
Lu Chong returned to the Energy Chamber and continued his cultivation.
The beast tide in the ocean had yet to spread to the Flame Country. Lu Chong could make the best use of this time to continue improving his strength.
"Why is Elder Zheng going abroad alone at this juncture?" Lu Chong was still a little worried about Old President Zheng.
Lu Chong knew very well that the reason why he could make such progress was because of the strong support from the school and Elder Zheng. Therefore, he had always been very grateful to this senior and his mentor.
Therefore, Lu Chong was also willing to temporarily take Elder Zheng's place in guarding a country.
"I hope nothing happens." Lu Chong thought to himself.
However, he wasn't overly worried. After all, with Elder Zheng's strength, even if he encountered a terrifying existence like Flood Dragon Emperor, he should still have the ability to escape.
On January 3rd, 2138, Lu Chong and his friends from the school celebrated their 20th birthday at the hotel at the school gate.
It was also after this day that Lu Chong bid farewell to Vice-president Zhou and went to the Devil City military station.
The front line news was that the first wave of sea beast tide was about to arrive in a few days, and he had to make preparations in advance.
Tang Feihu personally welcomed Lu Chong into the headquarters and half-jokingly said, "Envoy, you have come. We are honored to have you here."
Lu Chong immediately said, "Senior brother, if you say so, I won't have the face to come."
Tang Feihu laughed and said, "Don't, don't. Junior brother, Teacher Zheng is not here. There must be a powerful person like you guarding this place."
"Come, let me introduce the Martial King here. They are all experts who have been dispatched from all over the place or have volunteered to come and assist us." Tang Feihu pulled Lu Chong into the large conference room in the command center.
As soon as they entered, Lu Chong felt a great pressure. He glanced around and found that there were 18 Martial King sitting inside.
Lu Chong had only seen such a scene during the special training on the island, and it wasn't as concentrated and oppressive as the Martial King in Flame Country.
The first thing he noticed was that these Martial King who were at least sixty years old and above were deliberately releasing their powerful Qi to show off their power to his junior.
"Junior brother, these Martial King are used to being a deterrent, and most of them aren't willing to listen to you. As the Eastern Sea Patrol Inspector, the first thing you need to do is to conquer them. Anyway, I can't do it. "
Tang Feihu's secret sound transmission rang in Lu Chong's mind, and it sounded like he was taking pleasure in Lu Chong's misfortune.
Lu Chong understood it even more, and felt that it was normal.
In the past, heroes were forbidden to use martial arts to break the rules. It could be said that these Martial King warriors had a certain sense of chivalry for being able to stand up in times of danger.
But at the same time, most of them were not from the government or the military, so it was normal for them to rely on their own strength to not submit to anyone.
After all, they were all Martial King warriors who stood at the top of the Flame Country. Each of them had been famous for many years, and even Tang Feihu was not convinced by them. How could they be convinced by a young man in his early twenties for no reason?
As the East Sea Patrol Inspector, it was not appropriate to directly interfere with the commanding of the battle formation, but at least he had to subdue these Martial King who had similar responsibilities as him.
Lu Chong understood, but it did not mean that he would let them develop freely.
The battlefield was not like the fighting arena, nor was it a desolate wilderness where each side fought their own battles. With a few more influential thorns, the negative effects were very serious.
Therefore, Lu Chong first had to conquer this batch of Martial King.1
