1279 Thank You for Your Compliment. What About My Reward…

“Indeed, that’s the one. I didn’t expect you to capture it.” General Cameron took a deep breath and looked at Wang Teng in amazement.

How powerful was he, to be able to capture that level of dark apparition alive? It was unbelievable.

Berkeley and Haus were appalled. They had heard about the creature and knew that it possessed a heaven stage ability. They weren’t sure if they could deal with it.

Still, Wang Teng managed to catch it alive.

They finally considered Wang Teng as their equal by then. They even respected him a little more than the previous commander of th eTiger Strike Force.

Based on what they recalled, the previous commander couldn’t have achieved such a feat.

“Are there any rewards for catching this talented vampire?” Wang Teng asked.

General Cameron lifted his eyebrows.

This fellow is unique.

This was the first time seeing someone readily asking for rewards. Not once had he ever had a subordinate like him.

The others were equally speechless.

Everyone felt that Wang Teng was incredibly bold. Anyone would desire rewards, but none of them said it aloud. Not everyone had the courage.

Berkeley and Haus even felt that Wang Teng was stronger than them in this suit.

“It took great pains to catch this vampire. He even used his ancestor’s blood essence. If I wasn’t smart enough, I wouldn’t have made it back alive,” Wang Teng immediately voiced out his hardships when he saw the General’s contemptuous expression.

“What?!”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

“His ancestor’s blood essence!” General Cameron stood up and said in a low voice, “This vampire carried his ancestor’s blood essence with him?”

“That’s right, the ancestor was quite fierce. He almost killed me but luckily I managed to blah blah blah… In the end, I managed to send it back to his den using my wits.” Wang Teng kept complaining while purposely describing how hard the battle was to showcase his merit. Then, he looked at General Cameron pitifully.

Wang Teng turned the stern atmosphere into a strange one. Everyone gave him weird looks, feeling that the fellow had discarded all his dignity.

This fellow… He gave away all face for the sake of a reward. How could someone be so shameless?

Berkeley and Haus looked at each other.

They lost!

They lost terribly.

They couldn’t be compared to such a shameless person.

But, given Wang Teng’s explanation, General Cameron and the others understood the battle better. They heaved a sigh of relief and stared at Wang Teng in astonishment.

The enemy used his ancestor’s blood essence, but he still lost to this fellow.

It was hard to see through Wang Teng!

“Can you find the blood essence?” General Cameron asked the crucial question.

“Huh? I destroyed it already, didn’t I?” Wang Teng was stunned.

“A vampire’s blood essence isn’t that easy to destroy. You probably only wiped out the consciousness inside,” General Cameron explained.

“I can’t find it. It fell into a dimensional rift. I didn’t have the time to care about it in that situation.” Wang Teng shook his head.

General Cameron was a little disappointed. “Nevermind, it’s good that you’re alive. You can come back to the base first.

“Oh right, how’s the casualty count?”

“Wait, let me ask,” Wang Teng replied.

Everyone: …

Honestly, is he the commander?

Couldn’t he be a little more responsible? He doesn’t even know how many of his people had died.

They didn’t know that Wang Teng had called the General right after the fight was over, fearing that they would worry. It didn’t give him enough time to check on the numbers.

But, everything should have been accounted for by then.

Wang Teng called Peggy over to ask.

“No one died, but we have 363 injured personnel,” Peggy reported.

She was close to the screen, so Wang Teng didn’t need to repeat the message.

Everyone was silenced again.

This data… Did you really go there to fight?

Even General Cameron was surprised after hearing the news. He wondered if it was an illusion.

“Is there anything wrong?” Wang Teng asked.

General Cameron paused for a second before replying, “Nothing, you did… well!”

“Thank you for your compliment. What about my reward…?” Wang Teng rubbed his hands and chuckled.

Bang!

General Cameron turned off the screen.

Everyone tried their best to suppress their laughter. Wang Teng was indeed a talent; he managed to infuriate the General.

Still, silence returned as they recalled what the young man and the Tiger Strike Force had done.

What kind of monster is this?!

…

Wang Teng stared at his wristwatch with his eyes wide open. “He hung up on me?”

Peggy couldn’t help but roll her eyes. She would have hung up on him, too.

Wang Teng complained but he wouldn’t say it in front of General Cameron.

Otherwise, he would be severely reprimanded, and his reward would be annulled.

He felt helpless.

He wanted to vent his frustration but he didn’t have an avenue. Hence, he kicked Tourbe furiously.

Tourbe: o(╥_╥)o

What does it have to do with me?

Peggy pretended she didn’t see anything.

He was just a dark apparition. A kick wouldn’t hurt him.

The troop taking over the thirteenth frontline was quick to arrive. The previous commander, Lu Gaoge, suffered a serious injury during battle but he immediately chose to return when he heard that their place had been reclaimed.

General Lu Gaoge was surely feeling unsettled, since he was climbing up from where he fell.

He was feeling troubled when he saw Wang Teng.

Lu Gaoge saluted Wang Teng seriously, then said in a low voice, “Commander Wang, I sincerely thank you.”

“You’re being too polite. This is what I should do.” Wang Teng waved his hands.

“I feel ashamed, since I allowed the dark apparitions to snatch the thirteenth frontline. This is embarrassing.” Lu Gaoge shook his head.

“Those apparitions came prepared. They concentrated their forces on these three frontlines so anyone would have suffered a loss. There’s no need to think much about it,” Wang Teng consoled him.

He was telling the truth. That was the reason why the three frontlines had fallen so quickly.

Lu Gaoge shook his head. He asked, “I heard that you caught the dark apparition. Can I see him?”

Hey!

Does he want to mock the captive to get his revenge?

General Lu appeared decent but he was quite evil at heart.

Wang Teng was happy to see this, so he pointed at the ‘dumpling’ next to him and replied, “He’s here.”

Lu Gaoge: o((⊙_⊙))o

This is the powerful vampire dark apparition?

He thought it was some strange parcel.

Such a treatment was interesting.

For some reason, the reinstituted General felt a sense of exhilaration when he saw how miserable the vampire was.

Lu Gaoge coughed and spent some time thinking how to compliment the hero, “Cough, Commander Wang is a young and promising martial warrior. You’re very thorough.”

“You’re speaking too highly of me. This is nothing,” Wang Teng replied in a humble manner. This vampire is sly. He can turn into crows and escape so I had to tie him good.”

“You’re right.” Lu Gaoge nodded after a pause.

“I’ll leave this place to you. Now I need to go back and report,” Wang Teng said.

“All right, let me send you off.”

…

Once done reporting, Wang Teng went back to the Tiger Strike Force battlecraft and then back to the main base.

Lu Gaoge stood on top of the ruins and watched them until they left. Then, he gave a silent salute before retracting his gaze.

Wang Teng needed some time to head back to headquarters so he spent that time counting his gains since he had nothing else to do.

He picked up all the attribute bubbles on the battlefield. Not one was left behind.

His gains were amazing.

First, there was the constellation lightning force. Thanks to the Mystic Heaven Lightning Sword Array, he managed to get more attribute bubbles than the usual collected from normal lightning.

Wang Teng’s constellation lightning force was formerly at the ninth-level of the planetary stage but now, he had finally achieved a breakthrough.

Celestial stage!

His constellation lightning force had reached the celestial stage!

Furthermore, he jumped directly to the second level.

The stars representing his lightning force spun gradually above the sea of nihility. A strange power of life was released, then merged into his body, igniting a transformation.

Wang Teng felt his life origin and soul origin become more powerful after the transformation.

Life Origin: 36600

Soul Origin: 33800

Constellation Lightning Force: 7800/20000 (celestial stage second level)

Both his soul origin and life origin had increased. The effects were good.

Next was the constellation dark force. There was a whopping increase this time, since he killed many dark apparitions.

Constellation Dark Force: 1500/80000 (celestial stage eighth level)

It jumped from the celestial stage’s first-level, directly to the eighth-level. Everything happened in an instant. Wang Teng found it absurd.

The other constellation forces rose too, but the jump wasn’t astonishing. This was because the martial warriors from the Tiger Strike Force acted towards the end and no one died. For this reason, not many attribute bubbles were dropped.

As a result, none of his other constellation forces increased in level.

Wang Teng shook his head helplessly. An increase, no matter how small, was still an increase.

Also, his five deputies gave him some attribute bubbles, too.

He received 800 points of the Savage Elephant Form and 600 points of the Savage Elephant Mace from Huo Qiya.

Savage Elephant Form (universe stage): 400/3000 (well-versed)

Savage Elephant Mace (Ultima battle technique): 700/1000 (specialized)

The Savage Elephant Form went from foundation to the well-versed stage while the Savage Elephant Mace remained at the specialized level. However, he now had a better grasp of it.

Since the Savage Elephant Form reached the well-versed stage, Wang Teng started to understand how powerful it was.

If he executed this move along with the Ancient God’s Body, he would become a mighty contender.
