A tube of blood was drawn from him for no reason. Looking at Senior Sister Lu's departing back, Chu Yao scratched his head, speechless.
I really don’t know what this senior sister is thinking?
Is this a popular way of picking up girls recently?
What the hell...
Inexplicable.
The communicator on his wrist flashed red at this time, it was a video message.
Chu Yao clicked it and took a look.
It’s my own courier.
My parents on the front line would occasionally send some rare supplies and captured spoils home, which was allowed by the military.
They haven't been back for five years.
However, I think it should be developing well on the front line.
After all, the things sent back are becoming more and more high-end.
At first, it was just some food, rare snacks like dried meat of exotic animals, etc.
Later, it gradually became a medicinal material and crystal stone that could assist in cultivation.
Later on, there were even some things that could be called "treasures from heaven and earth".
only……
At this moment, this express message made Chu Yao feel inexplicably uneasy.
My dad just sent it to me half a month ago.
Normally, they send express deliveries once every three months.
And now…
Chu Yao felt vaguely uneasy.
Taking a deep breath, he quickly ran towards the military's designated express delivery point.
About half an hour later.
Seeing the huge four-character sign of "Oriental Express" and a long line at the door, Chu Yao took a number plate and waited patiently.
In today's world, not only Jiangcheng, but almost the entire human world is in a state of universal military service.
The city is more like a huge logistics base than a city.
Military decrees clearly stipulate that anyone who is 22 years old or older and has reached the Tongqiao realm must go to the front line and serve in the military for at least five years.
However, as the war situation has become increasingly intense in recent years, the five-year deadline has had to be extended bit by bit.
Basically, few people who went to the front line could come back.
unless……
It is death or disability.
If nothing unexpected happens, in a few years, when Chu Yao reaches the legal age, he will follow the same path as his parents.
The long line was moving forward little by little.
Suddenly, a sobbing sound came from the front.
This caused a minor riot among the crowd.
Chu Yao turned sideways and saw a little girl who looked to be about ten years old. She was holding a white box, tears streaming down her face as she cried sadly.
Another family broken apart.
Things like this happen here almost every day.
Chu Yao's palms were a little wet and he was sweating a lot.
until……
Only after receiving my own express box did my heart finally settle down.
Not a white box.
After signing and verifying his identity, Chu Yao picked up the huge red express box and walked silently towards home.
The setting sun cast a long shadow behind the young man.
…
This time the express box is bigger than before.
At least twice as big.
I don’t know what treasure is inside.
Anyway, it's heavy enough.
After returning home with the express box, Chu Yao was drenched in sweat, feeling as if he had spent an hour training hard in the gravity room.
Without even wiping the sweat off his face, Chu Yao closed the door and started unpacking.
This type of military express box needs to be opened by dripping blood. There is a tiny blood collection needle at the seal, and it can only be fully opened after genetic verification.
Black technology from the military.
It is said that this is to ensure the absolute safety of express delivery.
After all, the supplies sent back from the front line were basically earned by parents with their lives, and many of them were priceless.
The box was opened.
As usual, there's a chip card on top.
Put it on your communicator and read it.
A recorded holographic virtual video suddenly appeared.
With current technical means, even if there are several dimensional worlds between them, it is entirely possible to achieve instant communication between the front line and the rear.
However, the cost is too high.
Don’t even think about it for civilian use.
"Son, your mother and I are going on a special mission. It will take at least half a year, and at most a year. Don't worry."
It was Dad’s resolute face and voice like steel.
My father was an extremely cold and tough soldier. He was always extremely reserved, like a cold machine.
Just one sentence.
Then the images and sounds completely disappeared.
Chu Yao didn't even see his mother show up.
His brow furrowed slightly and he took a deep breath.
What kind of urgent task?
Not even allowed to show up and say a word?
This was not good news for Chu Yao. Rather than the honors his parents received for completing special missions, he hoped that his family could be safe and sound.
But it's just a thought.
The country comes first, then the family. Chu Yao is very clear about this righteousness.
Continue to look through the express box.
Two heavy bags of silver spirit rice, nearly a hundred kilograms, made Chu Yao gasp.
Silver Spirit Rice is a precious food ingredient produced on the front lines.
The clan treasure of the "Silver Spirit Clan", which ranks 74th among the top 100 alien races, contains the essence of the Silver Spirit Clan's energy and is extremely rare.
According to official data, the energy value contained in a grain of silver spirit rice is about 80 spirits.
Ling is a counting unit used to test the detailed data of the energy contained in the treasures of heaven and earth.
Its definition is that the unit of energy required for an average adult with standard physique to increase one kilogram of strength is one spirit.
In other words, one grain of silver spirit rice can allow Chu Yao to increase his strength by 80 kilograms. Of course, there will inevitably be losses, but even with losses, there will still be 50 kilograms.
My parents sent some back to me before, a little bit at a time, three or five pills at a time.
I didn't expect to get so much at once this time.
Did they raid the lair of the Silver Spirit Clan?
These two bags of silver spirit rice, with at least a hundred grains, are definitely enough for me to cultivate to the Tongqiao realm.
Putting the silver spirit rice aside, Chu Yao took out the following things.
It is a ring that is completely black with silver patterns on it.
When Chu Yao saw the ring, his face immediately turned ugly.
Black Jade Ring!
This is my mother's wedding ring and also a family heirloom.
Black Jue is extremely hard, almost the hardest known substance, with a hardness of 19.
People say that the Black Jade is eternal and one will be passed down forever.
My mother always wore this ring on her hand, and I didn’t expect it to be sent back to me now.
What kind of mission is it?
Chu Yao's curiosity and worry grew stronger.
This is a signal.
This means that there is a high probability that they will encounter danger during this mission.
Even parents are ready to make sacrifices.
Gently stroking the ring, Chu Yao was silent for a moment, then found a strong red rope and hung it around his neck.
And the bottom of the huge express box.
There is one last thing.
A crystal the size of a walnut, black and white, deep in color, full of mystery.
"Is this... a crystal core?"
Chu Yao's pupils widened, his heartbeat soared, and he screamed out.
…
