[Huo Xiao]: I can arrive in four days at the fastest.
If Huo Xiao traveled without sleep, he could only shorten the journey by three days at the fastest.
【Wei Jingzhe】: Six days.
【Bai Chi Mian】: Two days later.
A piece of news revealed two diving fish.
There was still no movement for a while, probably because there was no signal.
Jiang Lingrui did not wait any longer. The fastest one to arrive was Bai Chimian, a fifth-level mutated snow wolf species, with water-type mutated ice, and extremely powerful combat power.
Thinking of the message he had just seen from the other party, he had a rough idea in his mind.
Jiang Lingrui: Okay, this beast tide came suddenly, and we're unsure if there will be smaller waves or other surprise attacks later. The situation is unclear right now, so it's not appropriate to move rashly. Two Level 5 defenders from B22 City will arrive tonight. I'll take Qianqian to the association's shelter for the next two days.
Huo Xiao: Yo, people from the association, take Qianqian and hide first. I'll be there as soon as possible. Qianqian, wait for me~~~
When the group was established, Jiang Lingrui enabled information sharing, and they all knew that he was an auxiliary with no combat ability.
But the fact that Jiang Lingrui was able to know this information and the content of the transfer order in such a short time shows that his status in the association is not too low.
[Chen Qian]: Okay, please be careful.
Not long after they finished their conversation, there was a knock on the door.
The person who came was Zhang Qi, who looked a little dusty.
"Commander Jiang, Miss Chen, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Hey? Why is the window broken?"
The internal hierarchy of the Mutant Association is as follows: five presidents, 12 vice presidents, five district heads in each district, 12 deputy district heads and 24 wartime commanders who lead operations, followed by mayors, deputy mayors, inspectors and other subdivided positions in each city.
The commander's position is quite special. He has great power during war. If necessary, he can bypass the district chief and make wartime strategies on his own. He can mobilize defenders, guards, and auxiliary personnel in Class A and below cities, and issue transfer orders to urgently mobilize beast killers.
With such great power, there are also more restrictions. If some of his actions lead to increased war losses during the post-war data evaluation, he will also be brought to the association's military court.
Jiang Lingrui is one of the few auxiliary commanders who does not need to participate in battles, so few people know his name.
Chen Qian had not yet learned about the internal positions in the Mutant Association, so when he heard the word "commander", his attitude was slightly different from Zhang Qi's. He never thought that his match would be so powerful.
"It's okay, I broke it accidentally. Are you done with your work?" Jiang Lingrui and Chen Qian didn't answer him. He gestured to the other party to sit down and rest first.
Zhang Qi poured himself a glass of water to moisten his throat and sat down opposite them, feeling quite nervous. He had never met someone of such a high status before. When he was in the A-level city, he had only seen him from afar. Those high-level mutants were surrounded by people and obediently followed the orders of the commander.
Without dwelling too much on the glass issue, he quickly asked his doubts, "Commander Jiang, was that high-level mutant you transferred here?"
The other party ran so fast that no one could see who attacked him.
He had just finished assigning the post-battle cleanup tasks when he hurried over. The signing of the treaty here at the commander's side was related to a series of subsequent battle deployments, so it could be said to be of top priority!
Jiang Lingrui frowned slightly and replied calmly, "Yes, she has a special mission and is not available for the time being. Don't worry, settle the citizens and guards, and repair the protective shield as soon as possible."
He concealed Chen Qian's specialness, as it would be of no benefit to let the association know about it.
If Chen Qian is willing to reveal his strength later, that would be another matter. But now that Zhang Qi asked, it means that Qian Qian deliberately did not reveal it before, so Jiang Lingrui decisively chose to conceal it.
Zhang Qi's position was so different from Jiang Lingrui's that he didn't dare to ask in detail.
He had no choice but to change the subject. "Commander, because of your special status, you and Miss Chen need to sign two additional agreements. You should be aware of this."
Jiang Lingrui nodded and watched the other party push his holographic panel towards him.
Seeing Chen Qian's curious expression, he helped interpret it one by one.
The general idea is that the two agreements are different in terms of confidentiality regulations and prohibited private behaviors after the contract is signed.
The most crucial point is that when choosing between the life of the contract master and the lives of the people of the city, the matchmaker must prioritize over instinct and protect the citizens. This is his duty as a commander! This kind of contract is bound by energy, not just a simple signature.
If it weren't for this inexplicable beast tide, Jiang Lingrui would have planned to resign.
He doesn't have a heart of his own, and it may be cruel to say so, but he has indeed made up his mind to make this choice.
The nature of the matcher cannot be suppressed at all.
But if he resigned now, he would not be able to take Chen Qian into the association's underground shelter. The safety factor of ordinary shelters was too low, and he could not guarantee the safety of the contract master.
After listening to his explanation, Chen Qian seemed to be thinking about something. Then he turned to look at Jiang Lingrui and asked seriously, "Do you like being... a commander?"
This question made Jiang Lingrui fall into deep thought.
Do you like it?
I guess so?
He does not have strong fighting ability and can only serve as a supporter, but he is unwilling to be inferior to others.
He relished the feeling of commanding the battlefield. He was familiar with all the abilities of his men and could place them in the most appropriate positions to maximize their effectiveness. He also knew when, how much, and how to use the Guardians, Defenders, Assists, and Beast Slayers, taking every step carefully.
