The Legend of the Dragon King - Chapter 927

Chapter 927: 927




"Thank you . " A genial smile appeared on Tang Wulin's face . It was a genuinely thankful expression . With his good looks and his smile that resembled the sun, it was innate in him to be on the good side of most people .

The first lieutenant stood up and said, "Follow me . It's been quite some time since we have newcomers . Handsome young lad, I must remind you, no matter where you're from or what your origins were, never be arrogant . The Blood God Army is not your ordinary army . Those who were recommended here are all proud sons of the gods . But, those who remain make up less than one-third of the initial numbers . You're a polite young lad . I hope that you can stay . "

Tang Wulin asked, "Are we beginning the assessment now? Is there no need for any registration?"

The first lieutenant replied, "There's no need . You've already proven your identity, that's why you're here . Besides, before you pass the assessment, any form of registration is meaningless . As to why we're commencing now, the reason's simple . The enemy won't ever tell you when they're coming . "

After he heard her final sentence, Tang Wulin immediately focused his gaze . The scene of the sudden attack on Shrek City was something that he could never forget .

"You're right . "

The first lieutenant brought Tang Wulin out of the room, and they went to a place that resembled a warehouse . "You can pick any weapon you like here . Take note that where you'll be undergoing the assessment later, you won't be able to use your soul power . You can only rely on your physical self and the weapons here . So, pick one that you're familiar with . "

An assessment where he would not be able to use soul power? Tang Wulin was shocked . In that case, would his bloodline power be affected?

Inside the warehouse, there was a dazzling array of weapons . There were many modern soul weapons which included beam assault rifles and soul cannons . They were available in all varieties . There were even mobile versions designed for an individual soldier's use .



Tang Wulin recognized only a third of the weapons here, but he knew how to use those he recognized . After contemplating for a bit, Tang Wulin eventually picked a long, dark alloy rod . Although he could not utilize his bloodline power, he had confidence in his strength . He might not be an expert in the long-range soul weapons, but he knew how to operate them . If he was going to fight a mecha, he would consider using the long-range weapons .


When she saw Tang Wulin picking a long rod, the first lieutenant raised her eyebrows slightly . There was a hint of regret in her eyes .

"I see you insist on choosing pride . Come with me . " Her tone was slightly hostile, but she said nothing more . The first lieutenant brought him out of the warehouse to the center of the barracks . They were inside an exceptionally huge building .

The top of the building was shaped like a cone . It was the tallest building in the barracks and was about fifty meters tall . They went in through a side door . Tang Wulin finally met the other soldiers .

There were dozens of people inside . They wore smart, white military uniforms . There was the Snow Condor emblem displayed on their chests just like the one on his recommendation letter . None of them took note of Tang Wulin who was led by the first lieutenant . However, Tang Wulin noticed, from the insignia on their shoulders, that they were all officers . The lowest of their ranks was that of a second lieutenant . There were no privates .

Could this be the Blood God Army's command center?

The first lieutenant brought Tang Wulin to an elevator at the side . The elevator doors slid open . When both of them stepped into the elevator, an ice cold voice sounded .

"Wait . "

Another person stepped into the elevator .



Tang Wulin's eyes brightened . It was a female soldier that walked in . Her shoulder was decorated with a major's insignia . She was the same female major who brought Tang Wulin to the barracks . Currently, she had taken off her thick jacket and wore only her white military uniform . Her snow-white military uniform was well-ironed with hardly any creases . With the golden insignia on her shoulders, she looked valiant and heroic .

"Major!" the first lieutenant immediately saluted her . The female major also hammered her own chest . However, the action looked awkward for a woman . She had a slender and tall build with beautiful looks . Nonetheless, she had a heroic spirit that was absent in ordinary women . Even so, it did not impede her physical development . When she hammered her chest with her right hand, waves rippled down her body . It made Tang Wulin's lips twitch .

"I'll be in charge of his assessment . You may return to your post," said the major lowering her voice .

The first lieutenant was slightly stunned . "You're personally taking charge?"

The major nodded, "Yes . I monitored his journey in the mountains . So, I'll take charge of his assessment . "

"Understood!" the first lieutenant saluted her again . She then exited the elevator in great strides .

The elevator doors shut . Tang Wulin could sense that the elevator was descending . In the closed and slightly cramped space, it was just him and the female major .

Tang Wulin cleared his throat . "Good day, major . My name's Tang Wulin . "

"Call me senior officer," said the female major coldly .

"Understood . Good day, senior officer," Tang Wulin hastily added .

"Stand upright!" shouted the female major .

Tang Wulin was slightly shocked . He then stood straight as a ramrod . He was not used to being shouted at in a commanding tone . However, when he remembered the first lieutenant's words, he kept his silence .

The female major said nothing more, nor did she introduce herself . After a brief moment, the elevator bell rang with a crisp "Ding!" . The elevator doors slid open .

They exited the elevator and stepped into a metal corridor, much to Tang Wulin's amazement . They walked along the corridor and made a left turn . The major brought Tang Wulin into a room .

Upon entering the room, Tang Wulin's face immediately registered shock . The room hit him with a blast of nostalgia .

This was…

Why did it resemble the entrance to the Spirit Pagoda's spirit ascension platform? It was the intermediate spirit ascension platform to boot . Glass covers were erected around the room . Judging by their sizes, he had no doubt that they were meant to accommodate people with standing room inside .

The major walked up to the control desk and began operating the machine . Her hands moved quickly as they flitted across the keyboard . A series of crisp clicking sounds could be heard .

Two glass covers slowly opened . Various instruments in the room lit up as well .

"Have you been to the spirit ascension platform before?" The major turned toward Tang Wulin to ask .

"I have," answered Tang Wulin honestly .

The major nodded and said, "Your assessment will be similar to what you've experienced in the spirit ascension platform . Your mission is simple . You're to protect me until the assessment ends . "

"Understood . " Tang Wulin nodded and walked toward one of the glass covers .

As she looked at his back, the major squinted her eyes slightly . Then, she swiftly followed him . "Let me remind you that you won't be able to use your soul power inside . You can only use the weapon in your hands, do you understand?"

"Understood . " The first lieutenant had reminded him earlier . At the same time, Tang Wulin made a quick judgment of the assessment . It was similar to the spirit ascension platform . He would not be able to use his soul power but could only rely on his physical abilities to fight .

He went under the glass covers, and it slowly closed shut . Metal plates immediately attached themselves onto his body . A metal hoop behind him kept his body in place . His surroundings gradually brightened .

Tang Wulin had not been to the spirit ascension platform for a long time . He shut his eyes and felt the changes in his surroundings silently . There was a slight pricking pain in his limbs and bones . The sensation traveled all the way to his brain . His body broke out in spasms, and his mind went blank .

Tang Wulin could faintly feel the stimulus from the electric currents with the changes in the data wave and the shockwave from the spatial energy .

He had not felt anything like this before . It was because his spiritual power had already reached the Spirit Abyss realm . That was why he felt such vivid sensations .

It was bearable . When he opened his eyes again, he discovered that he was amidst a snowy terrain . He still held the metal rod . What shocked him more was when he looked around, he saw the barracks which he had arrived at not long ago .
