Chapter 645: How Did You Become a Five-Star General?
When Lin Moyu finished the 20th run of the instance, his storage space was officially full. Besides his own items, the storage space was filled with equipment and materials.
There were a total of 80 pieces of the Kunlun Set.
As for whether he could assemble a complete set with the same attributes, Lin Moyu was too focused on running the instance to check.
With no other choice, Lin Moyu decided to stop running the instance and return for now.
At this moment, the instance’s vortex lit up, and waves of spatial fluctuations emerged. A group of people was teleported out.
Their uniforms were identical, and they were the same group Lin Moyu had seen while climbing the mountain earlier.
Lin Moyu guessed that these people were likely from the military, given their coordinated actions and unique aura. Even the Jialan Guild’s team couldn’t achieve such uniformity.
After they emerged, they were momentarily stunned before regaining their senses.
Upon seeing Lin Moyu, they immediately became alert.
Each person moved quickly, forming a battle formation.
This further confirmed Lin Moyu’s suspicion that they were indeed from the military.
Other things can be faked, but such instinctive emergency responses cannot.
Lin Moyu smiled and gestured to them to relax, indicating he had no ill intentions.
The leader, with a commanding presence, took a few steps forward and asked in a deep voice, "Excuse me, are you General Lin?"
Lin Moyu smiled, took out his military badge, and put it on.
The purple badge with five stars was dazzling.
Upon seeing it clearly, the leader was taken aback, his expression exaggerated and flustered, exclaiming loudly, "Five-Star General!"
A gust of wind blew, bringing a chilling cold that made him cough uncontrollably. He suppressed his cough and saluted Lin Moyu, "Greetings, General Lin!"
Lin Moyu smiled, "No need for that. I’m just a nominal general without an actual position in the military."
"Are you the instance strategy team from the military?"
The leader shouted, "We are the Eighth Military District’s instance strategy team, third squad. I am the captain, Qi Tiezhu!"
Lin Moyu smiled, "Well, not bad. How was your harvest this time?"
The leader hesitated, "Reporting to General, I cannot say."
The military has its rules, and without permission, many things cannot be disclosed.
Although Lin Moyu was a Five-Star General, he was only nominally so, with no actual position or authority.
Lin Moyu said, "Alright, be careful. If you have the capability, you can try opening multiple channels. There will be more monsters, but the rewards will also double."
Qi Tiezhu said, "But opening two channels is too dangerous."
Lin Moyu glanced at the group. Not only were their actions coordinated, but their auras were also unified.
They were all level 80 professionals.
Coming from the military, their combat coordination was impeccable.
Under Lin Moyu’s gaze, each person stood straighter, exuding their strongest spirit.
This was a Five-Star General, a true big shot.
Lin Moyu was very satisfied with them. Despite being level 80, top-tier professionals, none of them were arrogant.
Lin Moyu said, "I think as long as you cooperate well, opening two channels simultaneously should be no problem."
Qi Tiezhu said, "Our levels are indeed sufficient, but our equipment is lacking. If each brother could get a full set of near-legendary equipment, we might have a chance."
The equipment they obtained might not necessarily be used by themselves.
It needed to be distributed by the higher-ups to the appropriate people.
That’s the military for you.
Lin Moyu thought for a moment, "Since we met by chance, I have some equipment from the instance. You can all come and pick what suits you."
As he spoke, Lin Moyu took out several pieces of near-legendary equipment.
In an instant, the ground was covered with equipment, piled up like a small mountain.
The accumulated snow was flattened, and the pure white snowy world was suddenly filled with colors.
Everyone was stunned. This was what it meant to have equipment piled up like a mountain.
Qi Tiezhu was once again shocked, "General Lin, did you get all this equipment from the instance? How long have you been running the instance?"
Lin Moyu said, "Just half a day, one piece at a time, very quickly."
Qi Tiezhu was dumbfounded, and all the soldiers were so shocked they couldn’t speak.
What did he mean by one piece at a time, very quickly?
What did he mean by just half a day?
They took nearly a day to run the instance once and could only get about ten pieces of near-legendary equipment.
Then they had to wait ten days for the instance cooldown to end before running it again.
A 24-person team couldn’t all have high-level cooldown amulets.
The equipment in front of them would take them 80 runs. At ten days per run, it would take at least 800 days, or more than three years.
They would have to work hard for three years, but Lin Moyu only took half a day.
Comparing oneself to others really could drive one mad.
Qi Tiezhu was convinced. The reputation was well-deserved.
No matter Lin Moyu’s level, his strength was real.
The reason Lin Moyu was willing to give them the equipment was that they belonged to the Eighth Military District.
The Eighth Military District had another name, the Eighth Fortress.
It was under the influence of Bai Yiyuan and Meng Anwen. Anyone from the Eighth Fortress was their trusted subordinate.
So, these were his own people.
In the White God’s courtyard, peace had returned.
Meng Anwen, Bai Yiyuan, and Yan Kuangsheng sat together, drinking tea.
Meng Anwen and Bai Yiyuan’s promotion had ended half a day ago.
They successfully reached level 96, with the laws integrated into their bodies, merging with their skills.
From now on, they could wield the laws, greatly enhancing their skills.
The next step was to integrate more laws into their skills, enhancing both the skills and themselves.
As they could wield more laws, their strength would continue to increase, eventually comprehending the true essence of the laws and beginning to master them.
Once they reached this level, they would become half-step super deities.
Yan Kuangsheng said, "Xiaoyu has been out for a long time. I wonder when he will return."
Bai Yiyuan sipped his tea, "The kid said we don’t need to worry about his third transition. I wonder what he’s up to."
Meng Anwen chuckled, "Don’t worry about Xiaoyu. He will definitely succeed in his third transition. After all, he has that person with him."
Yan Kuangsheng sighed, "I never expected Xiaoyu to be able to talk to that person."
Bai Yiyuan said, "Indeed. Previously, only half-step super deities in the human race had the qualification to speak with that person. Even at level 96, we don’t have that qualification."
Yan Kuangsheng thought about his past foolish attempt to challenge Antares. In hindsight, he was lucky to have survived.
Meng Anwen’s eyebrows twitched, "Xiaoyu is back."
The three of them looked delighted. As soon as Meng Anwen finished speaking, spatial fluctuations appeared outside the courtyard.
Someone had teleported there.
Only a few people in the entire human race had the qualification to teleport directly to the White God’s courtyard.
They sensed Lin Moyu’s presence and were all shocked.
Meng Anwen whispered, "Xiaoyu has completed his third transition, and..."
Yan Kuangsheng, with his keen senses, added, "And he’s very strong. I feel he’s stronger than the average god-level professional."
"What method did Xiaoyu use to complete his third transition? What means did that person employ?"
"The means of that person are beyond our comprehension. If Xiaoyu doesn’t say, don’t ask."
"Understood!"
They were all experienced and knew what could and couldn’t be asked.
Lin Moyu hadn’t been back to the White God’s courtyard for a long time, and his eyes showed a hint of nostalgia.
Although he had seen a broader world recently, returning to this familiar place brought warmth to his heart.
Since his grandmother passed away and his sister embarked on her own path, this place was the warmest in his memory.
"Teachers, I’m back." Seeing the three familiar figures, Lin Moyu greeted them respectfully.
He went up to serve tea to his three teachers.
These three teachers genuinely cared for him without any selfish motives.
Meng Anwen didn’t say anything. Lin Moyu’s safe return was enough.
Yan Kuangsheng smiled, "Not bad, not bad. Xiaoyu not only completed his third transition but also made great progress in strength."
Bai Yiyuan also laughed heartily, "Kid, you didn’t disappoint me..."
Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly jumped up, "How did you become a Five-Star General?"
Meng Anwen then noticed the military badge on Lin Moyu’s shoulder and said softly, "Xiaoyu, have some tea and tell us slowly."
Becoming a Five-Star General must have involved a significant battle.
They wondered what Lin Moyu had experienced.
Although Lin Moyu’s combat power couldn’t be measured by his level, he was still only level 74.
Facing god-level professionals, it was hard to believe he felt no pressure at all.
