Chapter 181 The Contribution

The next morning, under the mandatory orders of the Northwest Night Watch Army's Tail Feather Team and effective communication with the Dragon Lair base, the Tail Feather Team boarded a military aircraft bound for the Northwest.

However, Jiang Xiao and Er Wei received another order.

Hou Mingming was to take Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue to the Tail Feather Brigade headquarters in Dajiang Province, while Er Wei and Jiang Xiao were to jump from the military aircraft when it passed over Jincheng City in Longgan Province.

Yes, not parachute, but jump from the plane...

This reminded Jiang Xiao of the time he went to Kang Ke Jinde as support and jumped from the plane in the night.

That time, it wasn't just Jiang Xiao, but the entire plane's worth of people, without parachutes, all jumped directly from ten thousand meters in the air after reaching the designated location, like dumplings being dropped into a pot...

Jincheng City, Longgan Province, Jiang Xiao had been there several times.

This was where the highest commander of the Northwest Night Watch Army was located, and where Jiang Xiao obtained his first Crescent Moon Merit.

It was noon when Er Wei took Jiang Xiao to the familiar military compound.

The clear demarcation here had left a deep impression on Jiang Xiao.

On this street, the north side of the main street was the quiet and solemn military camp area, while the south side of the street was the bustling residential area.

However, this time, the residential area was much quieter than usual. Jiang Xiao no longer saw the leisurely old men playing chess and chatting, and several shops had also closed.

"Sigh..." Jiang Xiao sighed softly. This couldn't be helped. In early September, golden leaves fell on the ground, swept up by the breeze. The once beautiful scene now looked a little desolate.

To Jiang Xiao's surprise, even though it was noon, they were still required to report on their mission immediately.

Inside the military camp, in the familiar independent courtyard, on the third floor of the building, led by Commander Feng Yi, Er Wei and Jiang Xiao arrived at the familiar small conference hall.

Feng Yi gently knocked on the door: "Chief." (I know what title is more appropriate, but I can't write it. Just imagine shou-.-zhang in your mind.)

"Come in," a voice, old but gentle, came from inside.

Feng Yi turned to signal to the two of them. After they entered, Feng Yi closed the door and turned to leave.

Jiang Xiao also saw the old man in plain clothes sitting on the sofa inside the conference room.

Two years had passed, and the outside world had undergone changes time and time again, but this old man seemed to have not changed.

His hair was still slightly gray, his spirit was hale, and his face was full of kindness.

Under Er Wei's order, the two saluted in unison.

The old man smiled and nodded, signaling them to come forward.

He began by praising: "The title of Tail Feather has spread throughout the various military branches of China. You are the only team to have conquered the Dragon Lair. If the first time was luck, then the second time is strength."

Er Wei didn't speak, and Jiang Xiao didn't make a sound either. He only had respect for this old man. Being mischievous also depended on the occasion.

The old man turned to look at Jiang Xiao and said, "I heard from that girl Luan that you have entered the Star Ocean stage."

"Yes!" Jiang Xiao replied.

Jiang Xiao had already discussed it with Er Wei and reported his Star Transformation function to the higher-ups.

The old man nodded, full of emotion: "Nine Star Slots, special Star Map. The Star Warrior profession has existed for 70 years. In the universal understanding, the more Star Slots, the stronger the aptitude and the higher the potential.

Now it seems that we have not yet thoroughly researched the Star Map, not only the Star Map, but also Star Pets, Star Techniques, and all aspects of Star Studies. We are still exploring."

Jiang Xiao nodded and did not respond. He didn't know what to say.

The old man continued: "Conversely, you are indeed a special one. In 70 years, there has never been a Star Map with a single-digit number of Star Slots. You are the special among the special."

Jiang Xiao was very sure that the old commander was praising him, but why did these words sound so much like scolding?

The old man: "Your aptitude is not low. On the contrary, the special Star Map has given you a special talent.

I have seen many people's Star Transformation, and the effects of each person's Star Map are different.

The Star Transformation effect of your Nine Star Map is indeed among the best."

Jiang Xiao was secretly puzzled. What did he mean by among the best?

Time! Space! Plus, the effect of improving the quality of beneficial Star Techniques that Jiang Xiao added!

In the eyes of the old man, the effect of these three Star Transformations was only among the best, and not the top, the leader?

Who are those people who can compete with my Star Map? What is the effect of their Star Map? Are they so powerful?

Or is this just the old commander's way of speaking, his habit?

Speaking of which, Leiana's Star Map effect is indeed a bit awesome, but the effects are different and cannot be compared horizontally. In different environments, Leiana's Star Transformation and Jiang Xiao's Star Transformation can give different contributions to the team.

The old man took a sip of tea and changed the subject: "Your Tail Feather Brigade has a deep hatred with the Star Transformation Organization."

Er Wei finally spoke, she looked ahead, her expression serious: "The Chinese military, the whole world, has a deep hatred with the Star Transformation Organization. They are criminals, we are soldiers."

The old man: "Since Yi Wei's death, members of the Star Transformation Organization have been beheaded one after another. Your Tail Feather has a deep hatred with the Star Transformation Organization."

Hearing the old man repeat his words, Er Wei's expression froze and she stopped talking.

The old man continued: "This is your contribution to the people of the world, and it has also established the image of the Chinese military and the Night Watch Army. This is a good thing, but I hope you protect yourselves."

Er Wei's heart relaxed and she answered on behalf of Jiang Xiao: "Yes."

The old man put down his teacup and said: "Although you are an independently operating brigade, the organization is independent, and you have great freedom, don't isolate yourselves. You have the entire Northwest Night Watch Army and the entire Chinese military as your backing.

Luan girl, when you need help, when you need support in terms of manpower, material resources, technology, etc., you must speak up."

Er Wei felt a warmth in her heart. She knew that she had misunderstood the meaning just now, and quickly stood at attention and answered: "Yes."

The old man turned to look at Jiang Xiao and said: "I already know about the situation that happened to the Yi family. The Star Transformation has launched a retaliatory attack on you. More than a month of peace may be their conspiracy in the process of brewing. You are all true warriors who have gone through life and death, and you know the methods of Star Transformation better.

During your stay in Dajiang Province, be careful and cautious. Your Star Transformation is very powerful. As the trump card of the Northwest Night Watch Army..."

The old man paused and continued: "If the professional troops that capture the Star Transformation Organization get information about the Star Transformation Organization, I will send someone to notify you. Maybe your Star Transformation will be of great use."

Jiang Xiao was overjoyed and nodded heavily.

The old man: "In addition, precisely because your Star Transformation function is strong, I may arrange for you to perform some special tasks. I'll give you a heads-up first."

Jiang Xiao's voice was loud and his momentum was high: "Yes!"

The old man said with a smile: "Luan girl, you have to let him go when the time comes."

For this little joke, Er Wei answered solemnly.

"Okay." The old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "Go ahead, contact Feng Yi in any situation, and..."

The old man looked at Jiang Xiao again and said: "As the trump card of the Northwest Night Watch Army, the specific effect of your Star Transformation can only be known to a small number of people."

Jiang Xiao: "Yes!"

......

The two walked out of the internal conference room, out of the conference hall, and saw Commander Feng Yi waiting in the corridor.

He nodded to the two of them and led them out.

Jiang Xiao thought that Commander Feng Yi would immediately send the two of them back. After all, Er Wei was the absolute leader of the Tail Feather Brigade. To Jiang Xiao's surprise, Commander Feng Yi took them into another office again and solemnly handed Er Wei a few small square boxes and several medal certificates.

Feng Yi: "You are pressed for time. After you go back, arrange the award ceremony yourself."

Jiang Xiao's eyes lit up. Was this a Full Moon Merit?

It must be!

Performing the Dragon Lair exploration mission again, and successfully obtaining a large number of resources, and returning with a lot of important information. The Dragon Lair level mission must be a Full Moon Merit!

Er Wei turned around and opened her Calamity Shadow World door, solemnly took the items, and put them into the Calamity Shadow World.

Compared to Jiang Xiao, Er Wei may have deeper feelings and bonds for military medals. She has been in the military all her life. This is an affirmation of her career and a sublimation of the meaning of her life.

Afterwards, under the escort of Feng Yi, the two walked out of the military compound, got into the Jeep, and headed to the military airport in the suburbs of Jincheng City.

The two returned to Dajiang Province, at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, Yizhou City.

Yizhou City in early September was very hot, especially in the afternoon. When Er Wei and Jiang Xiao entered the east district of the city under the escort of vehicles, the temperature rose to thirty degrees.

Because the Star Constellation: Endurance made Jiang Xiao's body very sensitive, or rather, enhanced the body's perception of the external environment, it brought some trouble.

Jiang Xiao felt colder than others in cold environments, and hotter than others in hot environments...

The direction of upgrading Endurance was certainly for Jiang Xiao's own good, so that he could be more familiar with the surrounding environment and the condition of his body, so as to make timely adjustments, but it also brought a lot of inconvenience to Jiang Xiao.

When Jiang Xiao stood on the snowy mountain in his Calamity Shadow World, his palms shivering, Er Wei stood steadily, only exhaling wisps of white mist from her mouth.

Both were powerful Star Warriors, but in this comparison, Jiang Xiao looked like he had a precursor to cerebral thrombosis...

The Tail Feather: Light Chasing Brigade belongs to the Northwest Night Watch Army, but it is relatively independent. For a special team like Light Chasing, the highest organization in China is the Light Chasing Regiment, and the leader of the regiment reports to the senior commander of the local Night Watch Army.

However, in special circumstances, a special organization emerged, and the Light Chasing Brigade came into being.

What is even more special is that the Light Chasing Brigade is required to be stationed in the city, although it is in the suburbs, but it is not stationed outside the city or on the border.

As a special, high-level team, they not only have to supervise and guide the local Night Watch Corps, but also directly be responsible for the area radiated around the garrison location.

The Northwest region of China is a disaster area where alien dimensions are frequently opened. At this point, everything is very special.

Contrary to Jiang Xiao's imagination, the urbanization of this city is extremely high, no different from ordinary cities, even in the suburbs.

The specific location where the Light Chasing Brigade is stationed also made Jiang Xiao feel familiar.

It was similar to the military compound he had entered in Jincheng before. It was all across the street, with civilian use on the south side of the street and military use on the north side.

This compound was not large, with a three-story office building, a dormitory building, and several functional low-rise buildings. The greening in the compound was excellent. Perhaps due to the temperature, the leaves here had not yet turned yellow.

"From now on, we will be here." Er Wei stood in front of the courtyard, nodded to the two sentry soldiers, and then looked inside.

Jiang Xiao looked curiously at the sentry soldiers and asked, "Are these all people from our Light Chasing Brigade?"

Er Wei nodded and said: "The combat sequence only has a few troops, but there are other troop sequences. The Light Chasing Brigade is not what you imagined, only 36 people.

These soldiers are our people, but they cannot be called Light Chasers yet. They are regular Night Watch Army soldiers transferred up, but they are Light Chasing apprentices."

"Oh." Jiang Xiao nodded, followed Er Wei into the courtyard, walked towards the building that was almost identical in structure to the Jincheng compound, and came to the conference room on the third floor.

Jiang Xiao almost thought he was "lost in a maze". Would there be a charitable old man inside, wearing plain clothes and drinking tea?

The two walked in, but Jiang Xiao saw a group of familiar faces.

Li Yi Xu, Shi En Jie, Fu Hei, Shadow Crow, Sky Dog, Great Sage...

"Ha..." Jiang Xiao sighed deeply.

In the future, he would have to guard this country with this group of brothers.
