Chapter 57



Feng Wu was somewhat helpless, but he still nodded in agreement: "Yeah, it's exciting and novel."

Lin Anan smiled even more happily and gently grabbed his hand.

The layout of the office building has not changed at all from many years ago. Feng Wu took Lin Anan's hand and walked to the elevator door in a familiar manner, and suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Lin Anan turned his head and saw the familiar expression on the other person's face. He immediately knew the reason.

Entering the elevator also requires identity authorization. Feng Wu rubbed his eyebrows and sent a message to Modxin, asking him to come down and pick them up.

Modxin's office is on the top floor, the same floor as Feng Wu's previous office.

After Modxin went downstairs, he pretended to get something downstairs and then walked back into the elevator, and waited for two more seconds on purpose.

After entering Modxin's office, Feng Wu and Lin Anan activated the invisibility function of the bracelet.

Modxin asked, "Boss, what's the matter?"

Feng Wu nodded and told Modxin about his and Lin Anan’s speculation about the Zerg.

Modxin frowned immediately. "The Second Legion has been in charge of the Zerg in recent years. In every previous meeting, if the Zerg was mentioned, the Second Legion would always give the information that the Zerg had not made any unusual movements for the time being."

Interfering too much in the affairs of other legions might lead to even greater conflicts between the two legions. In addition, there was only Modsin in charge of the First Legion at present, and he had limited energy and could not take care of so many things. Therefore, he never delved too deeply into the affairs of the Zerg.

"I will assign some people to investigate this matter secretly." Modxin rubbed his brows, "Boss, when can you come back?"

Feng Wu looked at Lin Anan, who thought for a moment and said, "It won't be long."

Xia Yuanhan lacks patience, and if his plans are disrupted again and again, he will definitely reveal his flaws.

As long as they can find Xia Yuanhan's weakness, Lin Anan will no longer have to hide in the dark, and Feng Wu and others will no longer have to continue to lurk on the Sin Star.

Modxin nodded: "Okay."

He was about to say something when the light computer on his desk suddenly popped up a prompt: "Beep - Yu Jin from the Second Legion is requesting a call. Do you agree?"

Modxin frowned: "Yu Jin? What does he want me to do?"

He subconsciously looked at Feng Wu, who nodded at him: "Adapt to circumstances."

As he spoke, he gently took Lin Anan's hand, and the two of them retreated to an inconspicuous corner of the room and turned on the invisibility bracelet again.

Modxin adjusted the camera angle to make sure the corner where the two of them were would not be captured by the camera before clicking the connect button.

Yu Jin's figure appeared on the light screen.

Lin Anan had heard Feng Wu and the others mention the name Yu Jin many times, and had also heard the word "Yu Jin" from her second brother's mouth.

He knew that Yu Jin was originally the deputy commander of the Second Corps. Not long ago, after the commander of the Second Corps passed away for some reason, the position of commander fell into his hands.

Lin Anan never knew whether the former commander of the Second Legion was on Xia Yuanhan's side, but Yu Jin's position was quite clear.

Yu Jin is a very smooth-looking person, with a smile on his face all the time, but this smile makes people feel very uncomfortable, as if it is full of calculation and power, but without any sincerity.

"Captain Yu." Modxin nodded slightly. "Why are you contacting me suddenly at this time? Is there something wrong?"

"If there is nothing else, can't we contact Deputy Captain Mo?" Yu Jin said with a smile. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he seemed to emphasize the word "Deputy" in the deputy captain's tone. "Just treat it as a communication between the two legions to improve their relationship. Isn't it okay?"

"As for maintaining relationships, a military meeting is enough." Modxin frowned slightly. "Captain Yu has just taken office as the captain, so he must be very busy. If there is nothing important, I suggest that Captain Yu focus on meaningful things."

Yu Jin chuckled: "So, what does Deputy Captain Mo think is meaningful?"

"Stick to your post, protect the border of the empire, and help Marshal Feng Wu to act as the commander of the First Legion." Yu Jin still kept smiling, but his eyes were sharp. "So, in the eyes of Deputy Captain Mo, is it considered a serious matter to find a way to become the official commander of the First Legion?"

Modxin's face darkened: "What does Captain Yu mean?"

Yu Jin: "What do I mean? Deputy Captain Mo, don't you really know?"

Modxin sneered: "I'm sorry, Captain Yu, I have something else to do, so I can't keep you company."

He was about to hang up the phone when he saw Feng Wu, who had been hiding in the corner, suddenly appear and make a gesture to him.

At this moment, Yu Jin spoke again: "Deputy Captain Mo, there is no one else around me, and there is no outsider around you now. Let's just say whatever we want to say, and no one should beat around the bush."

"If I remember correctly, you have served the First Legion for more than ten years, right?" Yu Jin's eyes were thoughtful, as if he was really considering Modxin. "Marshal Feng Wu has been in Sin Star for several years. He is clearly in Sin Star but he is unwilling to give up his power. You are doing the work of the leader and taking on the responsibility of the leader for him, but you have only been called the deputy leader."

"Modxin, are you really not tempted at all by the position of leader of the First Legion?"

Modxin's brows frowned even more tightly. He opened his mouth to refute, but through the light screen he saw Feng Wu making a few gestures at him again.

——Does this mean that he should not refuse first?

Modxin's mind turned slightly and he quickly understood what Feng Wu meant.

His expression changed slightly, and his voice, which had been steady since he answered the phone, suddenly rose sharply, "Captain Yu, do you know what you are saying?"

Yu Jin stared at his expression carefully for a while, and suddenly smiled softly.

Modxin's reaction made him feel more certain.

If Modxin had never wavered, he wouldn't have reacted so strongly to his few words. His anger was a bit timid and he seemed guilty.

"Deputy Captain Mo, there's no need to be so excited." Yu Jin said with a smile, "Deputy Captain Mo, you can take your time to think about what I said today. I'll talk to you in detail at the eldest prince's birthday party in a few days, and you can give me your answer then."

"But Yu still hopes that Deputy Captain Mo will consider it carefully. In my opinion, Deputy Captain Mo's strength and qualifications are no worse than Marshal Feng Wu. Are you really willing to be inferior to him forever?"

A trace of hesitation flashed across Modxin's face, and although he quickly covered it up in a panic, Yu Jin still caught it.

Yu Jin's smile grew even wider. "You know, there is already a cure for Alpha Syndrome, and Marshal Feng Wu may return to the First Legion at any time. If you don't take advantage of the fact that he is not concerned about the affairs of the Legion now and take control of the First Legion as soon as possible, when he returns to the Empire, what else can you use to fight him?"

"Opportunities don't wait for anyone, Deputy Captain Mo, Yu is waiting for your response."

With a beep, the call ended.

Modxin raised his hand and rubbed his face, and the struggle and hesitation on his face instantly disappeared: "Damn, I really want to punch him in the face."

Lin Anan was watching on the side, stunned.

He suddenly thought of Xiong Yingjun and Si Youlin. One of them played the role of Xiong's father as if he were playing himself, and the other played the mysterious man in black robe without revealing any flaws. Now there was Modxin.

"Brother Wolf." Lin Anan's tone was vague, "In addition to training, do you have any courses like 'Self-cultivation of Actors' that you need to take?"

Feng Wu curled his lips slightly: "No, but how to disguise as another person is a compulsory course for military academy students."

Lin Anan suddenly realized, no wonder both of them have such good acting skills.

Modxin asked, "Boss, what should we do next?"

Feng Wu thought for a moment and said, "Since he has taken the initiative to extend an olive branch to you, then you should take it and see what he wants to do."

They were just worried that they couldn't find a chance to contact Xia Yuanhan, but Yu Jin took the initiative to come and give them such an opportunity for free, which was like giving them a pillow when they were sleepy.

Modxin frowned: "What if he really makes me rebel against you?"

Feng Wudao: "Then you are rebelling against me."

"...Okay then." Modxin pressed his solar plexus and felt a little pain in his head.

Although he knew that Feng Wu's intention was for him to use the same trick to delay Yu Jin, it would be even better if he could follow the clues to catch Xia Yuanhan as well, but Modxin still felt very tired.

"It's not a job for a human to be a group leader. It's too tiring." Modxin sighed deeply. "If you don't come back, I really want to quit."

Feng Wu knew that he was just complaining and would not really quit, so he said, "Thank you for your hard work. I will give you a long vacation after the matter of Galaxy X is over."

Modxin's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Feng Wu raised his eyebrows: "When have I ever failed to fulfill my promise?"

Modxin smiled: "That's true."

After returning to the accommodation area, Feng Wu took Lin Anan to the top floor.

"This is an independent training floor." Feng Wu said, "There is less than a week left before the birthday party. I will teach you some basic self-defense skills in the next few days."

Lin Anan said, "You can learn self-defense skills first. What I need to improve now is my strength."

In the world he had visited before, he learned a lot of self-defense and fighting skills, and his physical strength was no worse than that of ordinary soldiers.

But after returning to this world, his physical strength was obviously insufficient. Having skills but no strength was his most fatal weakness.

Feng Wu frowned slightly: "Strength cannot be trained in a day or two."

"I know." Lin Anan nodded. "With my current skills and strength, I can easily escape from ordinary people, but it will be difficult to deal with stronger people, let alone those around Xia Yuanhan."

This is a long process. At most, you can use some medicines to enhance the training effect, but there is no other shortcut.

Feng Wu hummed, suddenly pulled Lin Anan's hand, and put the ring he took out from somewhere on Lin Anan's index finger.

The ring is simple in style, but surprisingly beautiful.

Lin Anan raised his hand and stared at it for a moment, sensing a flash of supernatural power on the ring. He suddenly realized, "Protective gear?"

"Yes." Feng Wu nodded, "It can withstand three fatal attacks and will automatically trigger when it senses danger."

As he spoke, he lightly touched the ring with his finger. I don't know what mechanism he pressed, but in the blink of an eye, the ring disappeared.

It must be Brother Mo’s special ability, Lin Anan thought.

The ring was still on his hand, and the slightly cool touch was distinct. Lin Anan rubbed it with her fingers and suddenly felt expectant.

It would be nice if he could wear the ring that Wolf Brother gave him next time on his ring finger.

Lin Anan, who was concentrating on looking at his fingers, didn't notice that Feng Wu had been looking at his expression, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
