Chapter 852: Chapter 578: Storm Subsides (Part 3)
“Fortunately, it’s not the Interstellar Insect Race.” A commander let out a long breath, his tone filled with the relief of surviving a calamity.
“Yes, it scared me to death! General Qin’s intervention was so timely earlier. If we had impulsively reported the Insect Race news to the Military Department, it would have been a huge mess, not only alarming the Empire’s upper echelons but also causing a massive joke!”
“General Qin has great composure and meticulous thinking, or we would have really been in big trouble this time! Now, finally, we can sleep peacefully.”
The commanders began to discuss, their tones full of relief and lingering fear, their tense bodies and nerves finally completely relaxed.
Luo Yu and Nangong Lin also showed long-absent expressions of relaxation—so long as it’s not the Interstellar Insect Race, the Tian Wei Fleet has the confidence and capability to handle subsequent finishing work. Moreover, the top leader of the Blood Gu Beast has been explosively killed by General Qin, and the headless Blood Gu Beasts are really not a threat. It only requires a slow clean-up afterward.
“General Qin, thank you for stabilizing this chaos on Montrial Star, and thank you for defusing a potential catastrophe for the Empire! On behalf of the entire Tian Wei Fleet, I express the most sincere, highest gratitude to General Qin!” Luo Yu took a deep breath and saluted Qin Tian in a standard and solemn military salute, with a tone of utmost sincerity.
Behind him, many commanders also straightened their bodies and saluted Qin Tian, their voices loud and uniform, echoing throughout the command center: “Thank you, General Qin!!!”
Qin Tian quickly raised his hand to return the salute, appearing seriously, his tone sincere: “You’re too kind, everyone. This is my duty. As a Royal Soldier, I eat the Emperor’s bread, loyal to the Emperor’s matters, I should naturally alleviate the Empire’s worries, protect the way for all the people, and settle insect troubles. It’s all within my responsibility, not worth mentioning.”
To be honest, Qin Tian’s heart was also somewhat helpless. If he wasn’t forced, he really didn’t want to deceive these comrades-in-arms. However, the matter of the Mother Insect relates to his future plans, and he couldn’t afford any exposure, so he had to resort to this strategy, using a deception to pin the existence of the Mother Insect on this fictional “High tier Blood Gu Beast.”
As for the giant Blood Gu Beast in the holographic projection, it was actually transformed by one of his Demon King Avatars. Although the size was large, with his current strength, using energy to fabricate such a structure and simulate a Tier Eight aura was not difficult, enough to deceive these commanders.
Luo Yu lowered his arm and said solemnly: “General Qin, for calming the insect crisis on Montrial Star, you’ve achieved unprecedented merit. I will report this matter truthfully to the Military Department, and do my utmost to apply for the highest commendation for you. Your achievements will not be buried!”
“Thank you, Commander Luo.” Qin Tian smiled faintly, his tone calm, without a trace of excitement.
Actually, he didn’t have much expectation about the Military Department’s commendation. After all, recently, his achievements have been numerous—inside the Ice God Ruins, he saved all trapped Holy Blood experts and the Golden Clan direct lineage; afterwards, he provided the Judgement Court with the core intelligence of the Xieshen Association, enabling the Judgement Court to lay out plans in advance and capture all remaining Xieshen members, shattering the Xieshen Association’s conspiracy; later, he ventured alone into the perilous Subspace, rescuing Elder Yun He-Li and Pill Master crew from the Xieshen Association, preserving the Empire’s treasures.
These achievements, taken individually, are much more important than the settling of Montrial Star’s insect crisis (the covered-up achievement). Now, his rank has already reached Royal Major General, and without larger achievements, it’s hard to advance further in rank. The so-called Military Department commendation is just another impressive entry on his military record, really not enough to stir his heart.
