Chapter 295 Planting the World Tree
There are still two deputy commander positions left in the tank upgraded to level 7, one is mainly responsible for soldier training and the other is responsible for logistics management.
Both of these belong to logistics positions and will be managed by Chief Logistics Officer Mu Zhong.
Therefore, Mu Dehao, who is most suitable for the logistics management position, is not convenient to come.
No matter how generous a father is, problems are likely to arise when he is under the control of his son in a car. After all, such trivial details are the most consuming of patience.
This is also the main reason why Mu Dehao did not get on the car, but instead developed his own tank and his own crew.
In addition, Alfonso, who obtained the Wise Professional Training Ground [Mage Tower], has recovered from his injuries. He not only used this time to obtain the qualification of a level 5 magician, but also broke through to Sequence 5 in one fell swoop. He also applied to Wei Huan to board the car.
No one wanted to give up the opportunity to board Wei Huan's chariot.
The stronger one is, the more aware he is of the gap between himself and Wei Huan. He also knows that only by following Wei Huan can he grow stronger and see a wider world.
However, Alfonso's review had not yet been completed, but he had been living in Xia Yu's chariot and seemed to have a good relationship with Xia Yu.
It is worth mentioning here that General Joshi returned to Blue Star 20 days ago. He is still healing his heartache, but whether he can be cured depends on himself.
During this period, Wei Huan never saw him once. Even though he accidentally helped Wei Huan solve a big problem, it was also a fact that he killed so many people.
As a general, responsible for the lives of so many people, he should be responsible for every decision he makes.
Wei Huan held a high-level meeting in the conference room. Those present included the three deputy train captains Mu Zhong, Jacques and Kritov, as well as senior managers Xu Qingqiang, Captain Xue, Brother Chui and Mu's cousin.
The most important task of this meeting is to select and assign tasks to new people on board.
With so many people coming at once, even before sending them over, Daxia had already been selecting talents according to the schedule. However, after they actually got on the bus, they still had to be arranged according to the actual situation.
Some people were sent directly to the combat formation, some were good at logistics in the combat formation, and others were assigned to specific logistics positions, including the newly established Medical Department, Health Department, Art Department, etc. All of them had to be confirmed and entered into the system before they could move around in the tank within the scope of their duties. Otherwise, they could only move around in public areas and their own rooms, and could not even enter the several training areas in the tank.
Of course, these things can be done by Mu Zhong alone, but such important work must be finalized by Wei Huan.
In addition, there are some special talents who should be mentioned to Wei Huan individually. If these people pass the assessment, resources will be allocated for their targeted training.
Mu Zhong had sorted out all the complicated information, and the information he brought to the meeting was the final part. Even so, Wei Huan stayed in the meeting room for most of the day. It wasn't that he was impatient, but rather that he felt the hassle was overwhelming. Given this time, he could have recruited 20 more two-headed hidden demons and even explored the neighboring tomb several times.
Speaking of which, should we crush another Dark Beast King before planting the World Tree? Add in some magic, and we'll have three thousand-meter-long Dharma-images appearing. It's sure to be incredibly impressive...
"Captain?" Mu Zhong noticed Wei Huan's distraction and smiled knowingly, but he said, "What do you think of this list? If it's suitable, we'll approve it."
"Okay, no problem." Wei Huan took one last look at the list and nodded in agreement. At the same time, he also remembered that, not to mention whether it would be easy to recruit a second Dark Beast King, just to reach the current combat level, this Dark Beast King would need to be trained in the Undead Ranch for nearly ten days. The World Tree would be planted tomorrow, so it would probably not be needed.
After the meeting, Wei Huan asked Jacques to stay and talk to Kritov alone. After all, he was the deputy train captain and they didn't know how long they would work together in the future, so it was naturally better for the relationship between them to be harmonious.
Wei Huan wasn't a politician who rose to power through political means. He became the commander and their leader through sheer strength, but that didn't mean he could ignore emotions. The more the high-ranking officers on the chariot communicated, the better for the chariot and for humanity.
Jacques added, "After the Hodgson family fell, several newly ascendant families extended an olive branch to Agris, trying to get her to lead the Osham Reclamation Corps. Agris asked for my opinion, and I asked Captain Mu, but he said he'd talk to you first."
Wei Huan remembered this incident and nodded: "Yes, welcome."
Serving as the leader of the Osham pioneering army means serving under Wei Huan, and with Wei Huan's permission, one's development in the army will definitely be better.
At this stage, because the Alliance Reclamation Army had just been established, the prejudices among the various countries on Blue Star had not yet been put aside. They were only trying to get along with each other for Wei Huan's sake. Therefore, they were still arranging the reclamation convoys sent by various countries, and some of their purposes were unknown.
Now only the crew on Wei Huan's chariot can be completely trusted. It is not easy for the chariots from other countries in the legion to gain Wei Huan's trust.
Kritov also reported intelligence on convoys from other countries. The information from the Big Bear Country's intelligence department, analyzed from another country and perspective, had many different opinions, which actually played a significant role in Wei Huan's control of the current situation.
Kritov expressed his sincerity and Wei Huan still trusted him very much. After Jacques left for work, Wei Huan and Kritov chatted for a long time, further deepening their feelings.
After that, Wei Huan also met and chatted with Xu Qingqiang, Captain Xue, and Hammer Brother.
The army has been here for 20 days. The challengers who were sent to board their chariots have lived in the chariots for the longest time, 18 days. As important cadres on the chariots, they have been conducting inspections both openly and secretly, and have many lists in their hands. They cannot just rely on official words to judge who is good and who is not, they have to judge for themselves.
Wei Huan talked to them about newcomers and relationships, and of course, he also used this method to quickly grasp the latest information about the tanks.
Just like this, I have meetings and meet different people, and the day is over in the blink of an eye.
With four hours left before departure, Wei Huan finished all his work and planned to take a rest in the conductor's cabin.
When I looked up, I saw several people following Mu Zhong and leaving the cab.
Wei Huan asked, "Butler, what's going on with Mu Zhong?"
"Captain, Deputy Captain Mu is just doing his routine inspection."
"Do you know his next itinerary?"
"Before departure, I inspected various departments and held meetings with relevant units to ensure the smooth progress of the World Tree planting."
After hearing this, Wei Huan stood up and walked out.
With magic mist surrounding his body, he floated in the air and soon caught up with Mu Zhong.
Mu Zhong looked at him suspiciously, not knowing that he had intended to rest. Wei Huan would not say anything, but simply landed beside Mu Zhong and said, "Together."
It's not that I can't do Mu Zhong's job, it's that there's no need. Mu Zhong has emphasized this many times. He can find his own value and happiness in this process. He likes this kind of work so it's not hard.
Similarly, Wei Huan wanted to accompany him, that was all.
Next, the two of them toured almost all the important departments of the chariot together and met with the managers of all important departments.
These managers were only grassroots officials, many of whom Wei Huan had never met. When he made decisions, he met the people above him. Mu Zhong, on the other hand, went deep down and even reached every single person.
Seeing that the entire chariot was kept in good order by Mu Zhong, Wei Huan once again recalled what the old man said. He described Mu Zhong as the brightest gem on the thousand-year-old tree of the Mu family.
That's true.
"What's wrong?" Mu Zhong asked Wei Huan when he saw him in a daze.
Wei Huan looked at him deeply without saying a word, but just took his hand and held it tightly.
Fortunately, I can meet you after being reborn.
…
Deep in the vast seabed, more than a hundred tanks are marching down in an orderly formation.
Driving in the front was a white initial chariot. It had four wheels, but it moved faster than a propeller ship in the sea.
Its body was wrapped in a large bubble with a diameter of ten kilometers, which could easily shelter the remaining hundred chariots in the middle.
At the same time, the area centered on it is not only filled with armies of the undead that can fly in the sea as if in the air, but also with lights that come from nowhere. However, as long as it exists, the area around it for dozens of miles will be as bright as the shallow sea.
Therefore, this terrifying level six world became brighter because of the existence of this chariot. Not only did it no longer feel gloomy and cold, but it also felt like traveling on the bottom of the sea.
Kritov's office was not in the cab, but in an office building next to the square.
This is arranged by the system.
In addition to Wei Huan, the driver, and Mu Zhong, the deputy driver in name only, other deputy drivers in charge of different projects do not have their own seats in the cab.
However, their office in the office building is very grand, and there is also a balcony from which one can directly see the environment outside the car, and even launch attacks outside the car.
Kritov had been standing on the balcony of his office for a long time. He was not reminiscing about the days when he was a tank commander, nor was he sad that his tank had become an accessory and now he couldn't even go to the driver's cab... Of course, he was still a little sad.
But at the moment, he is more moved by the comparison.
After all, unlike others, for a long time in the past, he was just like the chariots following behind. He could only follow and look at the chariot in front with envy and awe. There was also a secret desire in his heart, wanting to become as great as him.
Now, he didn't become him, but he came here.
Being in this chariot, looking back at the chariots following behind, it turns out this is what it feels like.
An indescribable feeling of pride.
He is 52 years old. Before the advent of the Challenge World, he was a senior general of the Big Bear Country. Not only did he survive the sudden apocalypse, he also held important positions in the Big Bear Country and was respected by people all over the country.
He has always thought that he has reached his current position, which may be the end of the road, and it is impossible for him to reach a position that will give him a greater sense of accomplishment.
But now thinking about it, he was too arbitrary at that time.
At this moment, those following in the chariots must have the same complicated thoughts as he did at the beginning, right?
Among them are some generals from various countries who were once on the same level as him. Now they join the pioneering army and want to make achievements, but they are destined to be one step late, and it is probably difficult for them to truly gain Wei Huan's trust and step onto this chariot.
But I am already standing here and have become a deputy conductor.
Those guys must be so jealous!
When Kritov thought of the old fellows with distorted faces and gnashing teeth in anger, he felt like laughing out loud.
He really felt very happy and satisfied. He had achieved success ahead of others, serving beside the strongest human being and gaining his trust.
It’s really the blessing of our ancestors, I’m so lucky!
He even wanted to video chat with those old guys and enjoy their distorted jealous expressions, hahahaha!
Just as he was thinking happily, Kritov looked down and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.
It was clearly visible that huge seaweed had appeared on the seabed. The dark seaweed was entangled like a snake, and some of its leaves were tattered and swaying in the sea, which looked extremely eerie.
The memories of the life and death in the past few days awakened in his brain, awakening the fear deep in his heart. For a few seconds, Kritov's mind was blank and he forgot to think.
But soon, a white light flashed before his eyes and flew rapidly in a ring towards the distance. It was extremely sharp and hard, and all objects it touched were cut in two.
The other tanks must have received orders and hurried over, like a group of ducklings following their mother, carefully lining up, fearing that they would be cut indiscriminately by these level 8 weapons.
Then they seemed to have landed on a platform, but Kritov knew that this white jade-like platform was the queen of the underground beasts that could grow to a height of three thousand meters. In a way, it was the mount of Commander Wei.
In many cases, the chariot does not need to move by itself, as long as it stops on the back of the Earth Beast Queen, it can be taken anywhere.
The chariot stopped on the back shell. First, the army of undead that were flying around them came back and landed in a circle on the back shell. Some of them floated in the sea and protected them carefully.
Then the chariot opened and a group of soldiers and criminals walked out. At the front were the soldier captain Xue, the criminal captain Xu Qingqiang, the thieves captain, and so on. The equipment on their bodies was shining with diamonds that would blind people.
Some of the players they brought with them also changed into diamond-level equipment, and as members of the main team, their equipment standard started from platinum.
Not to mention Commander Wei who has better equipment, even the equipment of the main team members is better than that of most level VI tank commanders.
In terms of strength and combat experience, he is far ahead of them.
With such a star-studded team, any team member would pale in comparison and their equipment would look like rags.
For example, the core members led by Captain Fang mostly have gold-level equipment, which is far ahead of other countries' teams. However, they are not on the same level as this team member who is armed to the teeth with platinum and diamond equipment.
From Kritov's perspective, he could clearly see the challengers who came out of the vehicles one after another to participate in this mission. When they looked at the team in the front, they couldn't hide the envy in their eyes.
Kritov was clearly watching all this from the chariot, but at times he seemed to be one of the people following the chariot, looking at the group ahead with envy. At other times, he seemed to be standing at the front of the group, feeling the envious glances falling on him, and his back unconsciously straightened.
In this chariot, he is responsible for the overall commander of the close combat. Although he joined halfway and it is destined to be difficult for him to take over this team, and he is probably not able to suppress strong people like Xu Qingqiang, it still cannot change his deep pride in this team.
It didn't matter. At his age, his desire for power wasn't that strong anymore. If he couldn't manage the team, he could just be a steward or something like that, assisting these powerful men.
Such a sharp, brave, united and tacit team should not be damaged in the slightest because of his selfishness. That would be a loss to mankind and his failure.
But he was truly happy to be in this chariot, to be a member of it. Just standing here and looking out, he felt a kind of excitement that made his soul tremble.
In such indescribable excitement, Kritov saw a light-looking creature like a floating cloud or a puppy jumping down from Captain Xue's shoulder.
It jumped out, directly jumped out of the back shell of the Earth Beast Queen, and jumped into the deep sea.
As it disappeared, a huge eyeball appeared from below, expanding and rising like a blown-up balloon until it was taller than them.
Oh, it’s the Dark Beast King clan conquered by Commander Wei.
This is too powerful. Such a powerful Dark Beast King Clan is now under the control of Commander Wei and has become a magical weapon for the human race to conquer and challenge the world.
The Dark Beast King transformed into a gigantic, kilometer-tall form, a legendary, heroic-level Demon Eye Lord. Wings composed of blood vessels and sinews obscured the heavens, blocking out even the shadows of a Level 8 headlight. Its massive eyeballs were riddled with hideous black veins, the center of which bulged slightly outward, its depths blazing with green flames.
This moment was extremely shocking. Members from other tanks showed expressions of surprise and even fear. Even in such a serious occasion, there were constant discussions.
It was really terrifying. Looking at such a ferocious eyeball at such a close distance, my first reaction was the uncontrollable fear from the bottom of my heart.
When Kritov saw it again, he still couldn't hide the fear that arose from deep in his heart.
But as long as you think that this is the Dark Beast King controlled by Commander Wei, and that it is fighting for humans, that fear turns into respect and awe.
The Demon Eye Lord's form seemed even more powerful than the last time he'd seen it. Floating overhead, gazing down, it was an oppressive sight.
Then, the green flames deep in the eyes boiled until they burst out!
“Swish!”
A black beam of light that seemed to be able to penetrate the world shot out from the eyes and reached the depths of the seaweed, leaving behind a huge black passage, perhaps reaching the bottom of the sea.
After the passage appeared, the chariot did not continue to move down. Instead, Hammer Brother, who had been waiting by the back shell, opened the black lacquer box that was over three meters long and had been holding beside him, revealing two items inside.
It is the World Tree and the Heart of Life.
Kritov was shocked when he saw this. He could swear that his eyes had never left that area and he was always paying attention to changes in big and small things, but he still ignored the existence of Thor.
I have to say that Thor's talent is too great. It is terrifying to think about it carefully. If such a person wants to assassinate someone, he may have already made the move and the other party will not even know who killed him.
At the meeting, this gifted soldier was asked to take the most important supplies. He did not understand at first, but because he had just gotten on the car and his voice was not strong enough to question it, he now realized that this arrangement was the correct one.
Before he did this, everyone subconsciously ignored his existence and could not find where the World Tree was.
We must always be on guard against others. No one knows whether among the many people coming this time, there may be some remnants of the holy clan, or some crazy guys.
Now, Thor opened the sealed box and pushed the World Tree and the Heart of Life out of the back shell in full view of everyone.
When the two objects disappeared at the same time, Thor also jumped down.
When they disappeared from his sight, Kritov's gaze naturally shifted elsewhere, looking at Xu Qingqiang, Fang William, and then at the huge eyeball hanging above his head.
No, wait, I seem to have forgotten something important. What was it? It shouldn't be important, right? If it were important, why would I have forgotten it?
Kritov told himself this, completely forgetting the World Tree and Thor who jumped down with the Heart of Life in his arms.
In fact, it was not just him. At this moment, when Hammer Brother disappeared from everyone's sight, it was as if he had disappeared from this world. Even Wei Huan and Mu Zhong, who decided this plan, instantly shifted their attention.
However, AI would not be affected by Thor's innate abilities, so after being specifically instructed in advance, the enlarged image playing in front of the two of them drew their attention back.
They saw Thor falling to the bottom of the sea with his life in his heart, drowning alone in the sea, carrying out this important and lonely mission.
He pushed the Heart of Life steadily, making sure it would fall into the passage created by the Dark Beast King, without fear of the seaweed that surrounded the passage like a snake, entangled, hissing, and snarling.
Closer and closer.
The dancing seaweed was so close that it could hit him, but he never made a move.
Mu Zhong clenched his fists nervously and glanced at Wei Huan.
Wei Huan also looked at the projected screen with a serious expression, his Adam's apple moving, and his lips slightly opening and closing.
Another 30 seconds passed, and Hammer was still falling, but Wei Huan had not given any orders, as he had already entered the passage.
In that dark passage, there was a thick, burnt fog that had fallen from the entanglement of plant roots. Even with the flying camera following Thor closely, his presence was almost invisible.
Only the rustling sound seemed to react to Thor's entry.
Mu Zhong raised his hand and gently touched his lower lip. This was a small movement that showed he wanted to speak but was trying hard to restrain himself.
He was a little nervous. He thought it was too deep. If he stimulated the plant survivors, Thor would be in danger.
But he also knew that Wei Huan had his own plans and he should not judge based on his own experience.
On the battlefield, there must be only one voice on this chariot.
He was just a little worried that Wei Huan would be affected by Hammer's passive ability and his attention would be diverted...
"Right now."
Fortunately, Wei Huan finally spoke.
