Chapter 1198 Its A Little Crushed? What Do You Mean?

General Cameron and Veblen shook their heads when they saw w.a.n.g Tengs reaction.

w.a.n.g Teng was a money grubber!

But his ability was sure impressive.

He achieved such great deeds with just two missions. Could a normal martial warrior do this?

!!

The higher authorities, especially the ones in the military, loved p.r.i.c.ks like him.

They werent afraid of troublesome people. They were afraid of incapable ones.

The military contributions of these two missions are enough to raise your rank, General Cameron said suddenly.

Oh! w.a.n.g Tengs eyes lit up like two light bulbs.

He was going to rise in rank?

This was a little fast.

Some people worked hard for years but stayed at the same rank.

Besides military contributions, one needed recognition from the higher authorities and a good reputation to climb the rank.

If not, it was just building castles in the air.

This was why some people had no chance even after spending many years in the military. It was frustrating.

w.a.n.g Teng had enough military contributions and had gained the recognition of the higher authorities. General Cameron was one while General Darte was another. Besides, his achievements would spread to those above.

The only thing he lacked was reputation.

The two missions he completed couldnt be announced to the public. They had to be kept a secret, so other martial warriors didnt know what he did.

If he was given a higher rank, it might spark unhappiness among the other martial warriors.

Anyone would feel unconvinced if a martial warrior who just joined the military got promoted for no reason.

Hence, this matter needed to wait, but Cameron said it now because he wanted to tie w.a.n.g Teng down.

Talents received special treatment everywhere. If he didnt give him enough benefits, someone would come and s.n.a.t.c.h him away.

The details about the devil ovum and the devil mind dark apparition would reach the bosses ears quickly. He wouldnt be able to hide w.a.n.g Teng.

If he didnt pull him over now, this young man might fly away.

However, well need to wait for the higher authorities to approve the promotion, and there wont be a huge ceremony for it, General Cameron looked into w.a.n.g Tengs eyes and said.

Thats nothing. A promotion is always good, w.a.n.g Teng replied indifferently.

He wanted a promotion not because he wanted the limelight. His aim was the militarys support.

He needed to face the Parkers, so getting the militarys support was good for him.

Also, the fewer the number of people who knew about it, the better.

w.a.n.g Teng was still in his growing phase. If too many people knew about it, it would reach the Parkers ears, who would obstruct his path. That would be troublesome.

The Parkers didnt have much say in the military, but w.a.n.g Teng was also a speck of dust in this huge military system. The Parkers had the ability to influence him.

He planned to catch the Parkers off guard after maturing. That would be much better.

General Cameron was contented when he saw how sensible w.a.n.g Teng was.

If he knew that w.a.n.g Teng just wanted to keep a low profile, what would his expression be like?

Did you discover anything when you were saving Di Qi? General Cameron changed the topic.

I do have some observations. There were many devil vines in the area. As for the devil mind dark apparition, I only found one. I was worried about Di Qi, so I hurried back to report first and didnt probe further. Im not sure about whats happening, w.a.n.g Teng explained his mission process in detail.

Devil vines! General Cameron and Veblen were astounded.

Youre saying that there are devil vines in that mountain? General Cameron asked with uncertainty.

Devil vines were dark plants. They only grew in areas with intense dark Force, so they were rarely seen in the universe. Thus, their appearance here was unusual.

Yes, there was a whole lot of them. w.a.n.g Teng nodded.

Why didnt you say that earlier? Veblen frowned and complained furiously.

Erm, I thought that they werent a big deal, so I could report about it after I came back.

General Cameron felt his head hurt. How is the appearance of the devil vines not a big deal? Youre lucky to be able to come back alive.

Theyre not that scary. We killed all the devil vines. Of course, I dont know if they exist in other areas, w.a.n.g Teng said with a smile.

You killed all of them? General Cameron was startled. He thought he heard wrong.

Young lad, this is not the time to brag. Devil vines arent easy to deal with. Veblen shook his head.

I brought Di Qi back. Why would I lie to you? Look, I even brought back some broken specimens. You can take a look. With a wave of his hand, a devil vine appeared on the ground.

The laboratory was small, so he could only take one out. Actually, he had many more. They were all stored in his s.p.a.ce equipment and brought back to the base.

This devil vine was at the devil king level, so it was still intact. w.a.n.g Teng didnt crush it.

General Cameron and Veblen stared at each other.

Veblen circled the devil vine twice, his eyes glowing. Good stuff! Good stuff! This is indeed the devil vine. I didnt think you could deal with them and bring one back in a single piece. You dont act like a celestial-stage martial warrior at all.

Its nothing. Dont be surprised.

Veblen:

General Cameron:

They choked on w.a.n.g Tengs words and rolled their eyes. This fellow was a little shameless. He was bragging right in front of them.

Although the devil vine is a little hard to deal with, it shouldnt be difficult to catch them, w.a.n.g Teng frowned and said. He was confused by their expressions.

Not difficult? Veblen felt that w.a.n.g Teng had some misunderstanding. The devil vine isnt as easy to destroy as you think. Even earth-element martial warriors will have a hard time capturing one. Their ability to move underground is exceptional.

We can capture them if we station martial warriors in the area, but who will ask them to do such a thing? Do they have nothing better to do? The dark apparitions will probably take the devil vines away if they detect the powerful martial warriors. They wont leave them there for us to capture.

Thats why were in an awkward position.

Alright, I understand. w.a.n.g Teng nodded. He was thinking too much.

Every formidable martial warrior had their own business. The price of asking a formidable martial warrior to capture the devil vine was huge. Even the military wouldnt want their aces to do this.

As for martial warriors below the cosmos stage, these devil vines were honestly a little tough for them.

How many devil vines did you bring back? General Cameron asked curiously.

Around 40? I didnt count them properly.

How many? General Camerons voice raised by an octave, and he stared at w.a.n.g Teng in bewilderment.

Around 40, w.a.n.g Teng repeated. He was stunned by General Camerons big reaction.

General Cameron and Veblen looked at each other. They couldnt think properly.

40 devil vines!

Come on, these were the devil vines, not some random weed one could pick along the side of the road. Did w.a.n.g Teng find the lair of the devil vine and capture all of them?

Oh right, I caught a low-tier devil emperor-level devil vine too, but its a little crushed, w.a.n.g Teng added.

A low-tier devil emperor-level devil vine! General Cameron exclaimed in shock.

Wait, what do you mean by a little crushed? Veblen caught the main point and grabbed w.a.n.g Teng, staring at him intently.

I used a little too much force when fighting with it and crushed it, w.a.n.g Teng replied in embarra.s.sment.

Oh my G.o.d, you wastrel! Veblen complained.

This fellow crushed a low-tier devil emperor-level devil vine. They were extremely rare, and their research value was numerous times that of devil king-level devil vines.

Veblen felt his heart aching. He wanted to cut w.a.n.g Teng into pieces.

Erm, dont look at me like that. I didnt do it on purpose. It would have run away if I didnt act fast enough. You wouldnt even have the crushed version then, w.a.n.g Teng said softly.

Hmph, remember to be gentler on rare breeds next time. Veblen snorted. He knew that he couldnt blame w.a.n.g Teng, but he still felt as if he had suffered a great loss.

I will, I will. w.a.n.g Teng nodded profusely.
