Chapter 84 (Catching Bugs)



With the parasite restraining them, Gu Qiongsheng and his group escaped smoothly.

They kept going towards the agreed gathering direction, and finally caught up with the Federation's evacuation spacecraft from Xiling Star near dawn.

Because of Zerg interference on Xiling Star, signals couldn't be transmitted over long distances. The spacecraft commander, seeing several teams hadn't returned for a long time, had become incredibly anxious. Now that they'd returned safely, the commander finally breathed a sigh of relief.

A staff member led Zhou Feng and the others onto the spaceship, muttering quietly, "We finally made it. How did we get so late?"

"Did something happen?"

"It's not so bad," Zhou Feng grinned. "I only saved a few hundred people, found a research institute, rescued all the researchers and research materials, and encountered a parasite... a new type of Zerg on the way. It's not so bad."

Staff: “???”

The staff member slipped and almost hit the wall of the spacecraft.

He turned around in surprise and pushed his glasses up: "Hundreds of people?"

The staff member was just an ordinary technician and didn't know Zhou Feng, but he was in charge of data statistics. He knew that among the thousands of spaceships participating in the rescue mission on Xiling Star, the spaceship he was on corresponded to a total of 137 teams. On average, each team rescued 200 survivors. Now, more than 20,000 people were sitting on the spaceships, still in shock.

But Zhou Feng said that their team rescued hundreds of people?

The staff member was a little bit incredulous. He clicked on the computer at hand and tapped a few times. The screen popped up the information currently received from each team.

He found the team number that Zhou Feng belonged to—

The number marked behind is not six or seven hundred, but 1,023 people.

Zhou Feng actually said that the number was too few. They rescued more than a thousand survivors!

The staff member was so shocked that their breathing stopped for a moment. After a moment's silence, he suddenly turned around and bowed deeply to Zhou Feng and the others: "...Thank you, everyone for your hard work."

In order to rescue such a large number of survivors, the team probably had no rest at all in the previous ten hours.

An indescribable feeling of emotion surged in the staff member's heart, and a picture seemed to emerge before his eyes - a well-trained elite team shuttled through the ruins, killing Zerg and rescuing one dusty federal citizen after another.

Their faces showed signs of fatigue, but their eyes were extremely determined and no one stopped to rest - because holding on for one more minute might mean one more hope and one more life saved.

After the rescued researchers and others were properly settled, Zhou Feng and others were respectfully invited to the lounge by the staff.

After a tiring whole day, the group finally sat down to eat something and chat.

Serving two bowls of nutritious porridge to Gu Qiongsheng and Zhou Qing, Zhou Feng sat down opposite them and said with a smile, "You must be hungry. Eat more."

"I haven't had time to ask, what did you encounter underground before?"

Gu Qiongsheng picked out the key points and told Zhou Feng, but her simplified story still made Zhou Feng exclaim in surprise.

Especially when Zhou Feng heard that Gu Qiongsheng and Zhou Qing resolutely drank the awakening potion in order to break into the safe house, she grabbed the two girls' hands with a serious look and said, "That's too risky! How do you feel now? Do you have a headache?"

Zhou Qing shook her head.

Gu Qiongsheng hesitated and whispered, "It's okay, Sister Zhou, we are all fine."

"No," Zhou Feng pulled them up from the table and walked nervously towards the door, "You two should go to the infirmary right now and get a thorough checkup."

Gu Qiongsheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Sister Zhou, I am a therapist myself."

Having said that, Zhou Feng still insisted that they undergo a comprehensive test.

Unable to refuse, Gu Qiongsheng had no choice but to follow. Coincidentally, she also wanted to use the professional instruments on the spacecraft to measure her current mental strength level.

The final result is even more shocking.

The awakening of spiritual power is indeed a process of leaping over the dragon gate, which is very important.

Zhou Qing, mental strength index 9330, peak A-level!

Gu Qiongsheng, mental strength index 9540, peak A-level!

Zhou Feng stared blankly at the long string of data displayed on the instrument for a long time. When he finally left, he was still in a trance.

"Incredible, incredible."

Her eyes were blurry as she muttered, "The mental strength of these two girls is now on par with mine?"

Why do I suddenly feel like all my years of training have been wasted?

The news of Gu Qiongsheng's successful awakening spread throughout the military district's top leadership in a short period of time.

In an instant, it was like a stone falling into the water, causing another wave of waves.

When the senior military officials saw the news, they were almost shocked and wondered if they had slept too long and several years had passed when they woke up.

Gu Qiongsheng, a rookie who had just stepped out of college and entered the C-level, unexpectedly became a peak A-level overnight?

And it is the peak of A-level which is very close to the 1w indicator.

The A-level who have just broken through are different from the old A-level like Zhou Feng. They have just stepped into this new field and have plenty of room for improvement. This means that as time goes by, these two people will definitely enter the S-level.

The Federation originally only had a few hundred S-level people, and now there will be two more.

How can we not be happy?

However, the Federation's top brass were feeling very complicated at this moment. They hoped to see more S-class members emerge in the Federation, but they didn't really want to... This S-class member was Gu Qiongsheng.

At the peak of A-level, this amount of mental power alone is enough to hold an important position in the military region.

The S-class is the core strength of each major legion, and each one represents a considerable force. The newly born S-class is undoubtedly a new, rising star force.

Zhou Qing was fine, but Gu Qiongsheng...

After the federal officials met, they looked at the investigation report displayed on the screen and shook their heads and sighed.

Someone muttered, "This girl is already very capable and has a unique personality. Now her personal combat power has become so strong. Let's..."

It's hard to control.

He moved his lips a few times but didn't say anything, but everyone present understood what he meant.

In fact, most people have the same concerns in their hearts.

According to the Federation's wishes, Gu Qiongsheng should have stayed safely in the rear and not engaged in any legion training.

Even though the parasites and underground worm holes were discovered later, and the results were good, Gu Qiongsheng's independent character left a deep impression on these politicians.

Then came the Zerg invasion and the fall of Xiling Star.

The top federal officials specially arranged for the evacuation of the spacecraft as soon as possible to ensure Gu Qiongsheng's safety, but this little girl ignored them and insisted on following Zhou Feng to Xiling Star to carry out the rescue mission?

Although the senior executives agreed, they were secretly dissatisfied and were thinking of finding an opportunity to teach this girl a lesson after the matter was over.

But at this moment, Gu Qiongsheng awakened successfully.

From an ordinary C-level, he jumped to the peak of A-level!

In the eyes of federal politicians, although Gu Qiongsheng had strong healing skills and superb abilities, she was still just an ordinary high school student who could be manipulated. If the federal government pointed east, she should not go west.

But now, the situation has become a little complicated.

The politicians gathered together and discussed for a long time. Suddenly, someone suggested, "What do the military districts say?"

"Don't even mention it," another person said unhappily. "Those roughnecks are just waiting for Gu Qiongsheng to take up his post at the military district as soon as possible so they can pick him up right away."

"How could they possibly understand what comprehensive consideration means? You know what, Gu Qiongsheng's recklessness really suits those guys' appetites."

As he spoke, he opened his personal terminal and connected the projector to the screen.

Countless messages as dense as snowflakes instantly covered the entire screen.

"See? They're all applications for Gu Qiongsheng to join the legion in advance," the man said unhappily. "Sixty-eight legions, large and small, have submitted them to me, and that's not all."

"They are very excited and are planning to give Gu Qiongsheng a first-class merit and some special reward. They are letting Gu Qiongsheng mention it however he wants. Just look at that—"

He bent his fingers and tapped the table rapidly, "That girl has always been disobedient. If you keep pampering her like this, who knows how big she'll become in the future."

"She really doesn't understand that being too rigid can lead to breaking."

A group of people sighed and groaned, and after a while, suddenly, one person's personal terminal made a beeping sound.

He casually opened the terminal, glanced at it, and was slightly stunned: "Huh?"

"Wait, look!"

New projections appeared on the screen, covering the already piled-up legion applications.

Although the new message consisted of only a few short sentences, it revealed a huge amount of information, causing the expressions of everyone present to change suddenly.

"this……"

Someone murmured, "Gu Qiongsheng is really bold in suggesting a special reward."

"This is the best way to strike the snake."

"Yeah, the military has shot itself in the foot this time."

"Can you agree to this?"

"Who knows?" the other man leaned back in his chair. "That's a problem caused by the military. Let them worry about it."

He raised his hand and pointed at the screen.

Gu Qiongsheng's request was clearly displayed on the screen:

[Request the military to restore the Dawn Legion's organization.]

The military district was also in an uproar.

Many people were troubled: "The Dawn Legion, that's one of the three major legions, can it be restored just like that?"

"This kid is a bit ungrateful. We just disbanded the Dawn Legion half a year ago and reorganized the soldiers, and now they're back... Changing orders every day, where's the reputation of the military region?"

Some people stroked their chins and laughed heartily: "Don't say that. I actually think this kind of fearlessness of a newborn calf is quite cute."

"We don't have so many twists and turns here. We just say whatever we want to say. It's straightforward and straightforward. How great is that?"

"Besides, the girl is thinking about Chenxi, which means she is thinking about her family's roots. She never forgets her roots."

The others looked up helplessly at him.

"Then you have an idea."

"Should we approve this request or not?"
