1198 It’s A Little Crushed? What Do You Mean?
General Cameron and Veblen shook their heads when they saw Wang Teng’s reaction.
Wang Teng was a money grubber!
But his ability was sure impressive.
He achieved such great deeds with just two missions. Could a normal martial warrior do this?
The higher authorities, especially the ones in the military, loved pricks like him.
They weren’t afraid of troublesome people. They were afraid of incapable ones.
“The military contributions of these two missions are enough to raise your rank,” General Cameron said suddenly.
“Oh!” Wang Teng’s eyes lit up like two light bulbs.
He was going to rise in rank?
This was a little fast.
Some people worked hard for years but stayed at the same rank.
boxn ovel. c0mBesides military contributions, one needed recognition from the higher authorities and a good reputation to climb the rank.
If not, it was just building castles in the air.
This was why some people had no chance even after spending many years in the military. It was frustrating.
Wang Teng had enough military contributions and had gained the recognition of the higher authorities. General Cameron was one while General Darte was another. Besides, his achievements would spread to those above.
The only thing he lacked was reputation.
The two missions he completed couldn’t be announced to the public. They had to be kept a secret, so other martial warriors didn’t know what he did.
If he was given a higher rank, it might spark unhappiness among the other martial warriors.
Anyone would feel unconvinced if a martial warrior who just joined the military got promoted for no reason.
Hence, this matter needed to wait, but Cameron said it now because he wanted to tie Wang Teng down.
Talents received special treatment everywhere. If he didn’t give him enough benefits, someone would come and snatch him away.
The details about the devil ovum and the devil mind dark apparition would reach the bosses’ ears quickly. He wouldn’t be able to hide Wang Teng.
If he didn’t pull him over now, this young man might fly away.
“However, we’ll need to wait for the higher authorities to approve the promotion, and there won’t be a huge ceremony for it,” General Cameron looked into Wang Teng’s eyes and said.
“That’s nothing. A promotion is always good,” Wang Teng replied indifferently.
He wanted a promotion not because he wanted the limelight. His aim was the military’s support.
He needed to face the Parkers, so getting the military’s support was good for him.
Also, the fewer the number of people who knew about it, the better.
Wang Teng was still in his growing phase. If too many people knew about it, it would reach the Parkers’ ears, who would obstruct his path. That would be troublesome.
The Parkers didn’t have much say in the military, but Wang Teng was also a speck of dust in this huge military system. The Parkers had the ability to influence him.
He planned to catch the Parkers off guard after maturing. That would be much better.
General Cameron was contented when he saw how sensible Wang Teng was.
If he knew that Wang Teng just wanted to keep a low profile, what would his expression be like?
“Did you discover anything when you were saving Di Qi?” General Cameron changed the topic.
“I do have some observations. There were many devil vines in the area. As for the devil mind dark apparition, I only found one. I was worried about Di Qi, so I hurried back to report first and didn’t probe further. I’m not sure about what’s happening,” Wang Teng explained his mission process in detail.
“Devil vines!” General Cameron and Veblen were astounded.
“You’re saying that there are devil vines in that mountain?” General Cameron asked with uncertainty.
Devil vines were dark plants. They only grew in areas with intense dark Force, so they were rarely seen in the universe. Thus, their appearance here was unusual.
“Yes, there was a whole lot of them.” Wang Teng nodded.
“Why didn’t you say that earlier?” Veblen frowned and complained furiously.
“Erm, I thought that they weren’t a big deal, so I could report about it after I came back.”
General Cameron felt his head hurt. “How is the appearance of the devil vines not a big deal? You’re lucky to be able to come back alive.”
“They’re not that scary. We killed all the devil vines. Of course, I don’t know if they exist in other areas,” Wang Teng said with a smile.
“You killed all of them?” General Cameron was startled. He thought he heard wrong.
“Young lad, this is not the time to brag. Devil vines aren’t easy to deal with.” Veblen shook his head.
“I brought Di Qi back. Why would I lie to you? Look, I even brought back some broken specimens. You can take a look.” With a wave of his hand, a devil vine appeared on the ground.
The laboratory was small, so he could only take one out. Actually, he had many more. They were all stored in his space equipment and brought back to the base.
This devil vine was at the devil king level, so it was still intact. Wang Teng didn’t crush it.
General Cameron and Veblen stared at each other.
Veblen circled the devil vine twice, his eyes glowing. “Good stuff! Good stuff! This is indeed the devil vine. I didn’t think you could deal with them and bring one back in a single piece. You don’t act like a celestial-stage martial warrior at all.”
“It’s nothing. Don’t be surprised.”
Veblen: …
General Cameron: …
They choked on Wang Teng’s words and rolled their eyes. This fellow was a little shameless. He was bragging right in front of them.
“Although the devil vine is a little hard to deal with, it shouldn’t be difficult to catch them,” Wang Teng frowned and said. He was confused by their expressions.
“Not difficult?” Veblen felt that Wang Teng had some misunderstanding. “The devil vine isn’t as easy to destroy as you think. Even earth-element martial warriors will have a hard time capturing one. Their ability to move underground is exceptional.
“We can capture them if we station martial warriors in the area, but who will ask them to do such a thing? Do they have nothing better to do? The dark apparitions will probably take the devil vines away if they detect the powerful martial warriors. They won’t leave them there for us to capture.
“That’s why we’re in an awkward position.”
“Alright, I understand.” Wang Teng nodded. He was thinking too much.
Every formidable martial warrior had their own business. The price of asking a formidable martial warrior to capture the devil vine was huge. Even the military wouldn’t want their aces to do this.
As for martial warriors below the cosmos stage, these devil vines were honestly a little tough for them.
“How many devil vines did you bring back?” General Cameron asked curiously.
“Around 40? I didn’t count them properly.”
“How many?” General Cameron’s voice raised by an octave, and he stared at Wang Teng in bewilderment.
“Around 40,” Wang Teng repeated. He was stunned by General Cameron’s big reaction.
General Cameron and Veblen looked at each other. They couldn’t think properly.
40 devil vines!
Come on, these were the devil vines, not some random weed one could pick along the side of the road. Did Wang Teng find the lair of the devil vine and capture all of them?
“Oh right, I caught a low-tier devil emperor-level devil vine too, but it’s a little crushed,” Wang Teng added.
“A low-tier devil emperor-level devil vine!” General Cameron exclaimed in shock.
“Wait, what do you mean by a little crushed?” Veblen caught the main point and grabbed Wang Teng, staring at him intently.
“I used a little too much force when fighting with it and crushed it,” Wang Teng replied in embarrassment.
“Oh my god, you wastrel!” Veblen complained.
This fellow crushed a low-tier devil emperor-level devil vine. They were extremely rare, and their research value was numerous times that of devil king-level devil vines.
Veblen felt his heart aching. He wanted to cut Wang Teng into pieces.
“Erm, don’t look at me like that. I didn’t do it on purpose. It would have run away if I didn’t act fast enough. You wouldn’t even have the crushed version then,” Wang Teng said softly.
“Hmph, remember to be gentler on rare breeds next time.” Veblen snorted. He knew that he couldn’t blame Wang Teng, but he still felt as if he had suffered a great loss.
“I will, I will.” Wang Teng nodded profusely.
