Chapter 350: Future Peers
Under Mu Qings lead, Feng Qi and Lu Yue walked into Dawn Manor.
The manor was huge. As they walked along the main road, there was a snow bamboo forest on the left. There were also a few white bear cubs inside.
On the right side of the main road was a large inner hot spring lake. There was also a small path that connected the main road to the pavilion in the center of the lake.
At the end of the lake was a large number of buildings. They had to take a detour through the main road.
Walking along the lake, there were functional buildings.
Training rooms, equipment warehouse, underground parking lot, cinema All kinds of facilities were available.
After walking past the functional buildings, they arrived at the residential area.
This was a row of detached houses.
From Mu Qings introduction, he learned that since the Dawn Domain Combat Team now had close to ten thousand members. The arrangements were to have five members per house and they could freely choose their rooms. The higher-ups in the team had two people per house.
What about you? After listening to Mu Qings explanation, he suddenly asked curiously.
Im the commander. Of course, I have one to myself. I still have this privilege, Mu Qing replied with a smile.
After following Mu Qing for a while, they were brought to a residence.
Ah Qi, youll stay here from now on. Ill stay in unit 001 next door, and unit 003 is for Lu Yue.
Hearing this, Feng Qi hurriedly shook his head.
Thats not good. Weve just arrived and youre already making things special. If the members of the team see this and think that Im a pretty boy youre keeping outside, 111 lose face.
Hearing this, Mu Qing could not help but roll her eyes.
What pretty boy? My decision is the decision of the entire team. They have always obeyed my arrangements.
Then lets both take a step back and let Lu Yue share one with me. Its too wasteful for each of us to have one.
Looking at the serious Feng Qi, Mu Qing immediately nodded.
Then you guys can stay together. Ive already prepared everything for you inside. Go in and put down your luggage first. Ill hold a welcome ceremony at the cafeteria tonight. 1 have something else to attend to first.
Alright, go ahead. Feng Qi immediately nodded.
Then, he and Lu Yue brought their luggage up the stairs to the door and pushed it open.
The decorations in the house were mainly black and white, and it was fully furnished.
He went to the second floor and chose a room. He put down his luggage and tidied up the clothes in his luggage before putting them in the closet.
After was.h.i.+ng up, he pushed open the French windows on the balcony.
Compared to the room with the heating on all the time, the air outside was cold. It was like another world.
Standing on the balcony, he sized up the scene in Dawn Manor.
In front of the residential buildings was a horizontal greenery path that meandered to residential area B in the distance.
In front of the greenery path was a hot spring lake. White fog lingered on the surface of the lake, making it look like a fairyland.
The environment here was quiet and elegant, making one feel relaxed and happy.
However, he knew the cruelty hidden under the elegant environment.
Because this was the front line.
How many corpses were buried deep in the snow? This was definitely an astonis.h.i.+ng figure.
The media often reported news about the front line, including the treatment of the front line warriors, but no one complained about why they were treated so well.
Everyone clearly knew what these warriors were carrying on their shoulders.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that such a life was filled with blood.
Before every mission, no one knew if they would be able to see the sun rise as usual.
After a long time, he turned around and returned to the room.
Coincidentally, Lu Yue also came out of his room. Then, the two of them walked around the rooms on every floor and memorized the use of each room.
When night fell, Mu Qing came again.
When she walked into the house and saw Feng Qi and Lu Yue lying on the sofa watching television, a smile appeared on her face.
Follow me to the cafeteria. Next is the welcome ceremony.
Upon hearing this, Feng Qi stood up. He asked curiously,
Isnt there close to 10,000 people in the entire team? Wouldnt it be very troublesome if we have to hold a welcome ceremony every time a newcomer comes?
Mu Qing shook her head.
Its naturally too troublesome to hold a welcoming ceremony with the entire team every time a newcomer comes, so the rule I set is that a welcome ceremony will be held in the team hes a.s.signed to.
However, there are also exceptions. For example, during the annual graduation season, when a large number of newcomers arrive, there will be a welcoming ceremony with the entire team.
Hearing this, Feng Qi hurriedly shook his head.
Lets just have a simple meal together. A welcome ceremony with the full team is too grand.
Dont forget, youre the deputy commander of the Dawn Domain Combat Team. Mu Qing smiled and winked.
Feng Qi could not help but be stunned when he heard this.
In fact, he had wanted to speak to Mu Qing about this when he arrived.
The Dawn Domain Combat Team had developed for so many years. He would definitely cause a lot of unhappiness when he comes in as a stranger and is put right at the top. Before proving his ability, he did not intend to fulfill his promise from many years ago.
How to become a leader was actually not unfamiliar to him.
In the previous timeline, he had established Breaking Dawn, and from unfamiliarity to familiarity, he had personally strengthened this organization bit by bit.
However, even though he was familiar with doing so, he felt that he still needed a process.
At this thought, he looked at Mu Qing and said,
Senior Sister, I might not be suitable for the position of deputy commander now. I need some time.
Mu Qing seemed to understand his thoughts. She looked straight into his eyes and said,
In my eyes, All Qi is a natural leader. He has ail the qualities that a leader should have. Kindness, decisiveness, sacrifice, tenacity, talent At that time, we all saw you as our backbone.
This is the front line. The capable ones occupy the team positions. As long as you think you have the ability to take on the position of deputy commander, take up the position first and use time to prove yourself.
It was the same when 1 first came to the front line. From the beginning, I was the main core of the team. This was the position I fought for because I knew that I had the capabilities. 1 dont need your modesty here. I hope to see you display your talents to the fullest.
Looking at the expectant Mu Qing, a smile appeared on Feng Qis face. Then, he nodded and said,
Yes, Commander. Deputy Commander Feng Qi is here!
In private, you dont have to call me Commander, Ah Qi. Mu Qing also smiled and reminded him.
Alright, Senior Sister.
Listening to their conversation, Lu Yue, who was still lying on the sofa, felt like an extra.
Then, he looked down at Jian Lan in his arms.
Yes, women will only affect the speed at which I draw my sword!
8 p.m.
In the Dawn cafeteria, thousands of people gathered together.
At this moment, Mu Qing brought Feng Qi to the podium at the front of the cafeteria.
Standing on the stage, he could see that the Dawn Domain Combat Team was very disciplined.
Before Mu Qing could speak, no one in the hall of thousands dared to speak. They all sat upright in their seats.
ii
Let me make a grand introduction. This is the Deputy Commander of the Dawn Domain Combat Team. His name is Feng Qi. He comes from Star City Academy like me. I believe everyone is familiar with him!
As soon as he finished speaking, there was thunderous applause.
Feng Qi was at a loss when he heard this.
Why are they familiar with me?
At this moment, Mu Qing walked to his side and smiled.
Youve always been the representative I used to motivate team members. I often use the words you used to educate us to educate them. I even told them how shocking your talent is. They all know you, but you dont know them.
Arent you over-flattering me? He couldnt help but roll his eyes.
You have the capabilities. Be more confident.
Looking at Feng Qi, Mu Qing continued,
Theres no complicated process for the welcome ceremony. Go up and say a few words now so that everyone can get to know you.
Feng Qi nodded when he heard this.
Then, he walked to the podium and looked at the thousands of people below. He suddenly thought of the previous timeline.
The last time there were so many people gathered was at the execution ground
In his speech, he did not say anything about his bold aspirations for the future, nor did he directly express his plans for the future construction of the Dawn Domain Combat Team. He only briefly introduced himself and walked down the podium amidst applause.
In his opinion, gaining the respect of the warriors was done through actions, not bragging.
During dinner, under Mu Qings introduction, he even got to know the upper echelons of Dawn.
Through Mu Qings explanation and introduction, he learned that
the Dawn Domain Combat Team currently had a total of 8,687 members and was divided into eight groups. Each group had about 1,000 members, and each group was divided into three smaller groups.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, the groups would be responsible for carrying out ordinary missions.
If it was a joint operation to disperse a domain field, the entire team would act together and she would personally lead the team.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, the commanders position in the battle was to command and coordinate the overall situation. Combat was secondary.
But the Dawn Domain Combat Team was an exception.
Feng Qi learned from the higher-ups of Dawn who were eating at the same table that
Mu Qing was both the leader and the absolute core force of the battle.
Having been in a combat team for many years, she had long been the backbone of the team. The entire team trusted and admired her.
In fact, this trust had already become a wartime belief.
They all believed that as long as Mu Qing was around, they would definitely win.
Feng Qi was not surprised by this.
Without personal charm, how could so many people in the future continue to follow her even if they had to bear the infamy of all mankind?
This obviously required absolute trust in her.
As they chatted, Feng Qi experienced the combat team atmosphere that Xia Long, Yan Yue, and the others often talked about.
There was no false flattery here, only comrades.h.i.+p.
They had entrusted their lives to each other in the domain fields and could even sacrifice themselves for their comrades at critical moments.
Fresh blood was a witness to such relations.h.i.+ps. There was no need to be mixed with hypocrisy to enhance mutual value. Naturally, they would do whatever they wanted.
The atmosphere was strong. Feng Qi who had not drunk alcohol for many years and drunk a lot that night.
It was 11 p.m.
He and Lu Yue returned to their house.
After was.h.i.+ng up, Feng Qi lay on the bed and tossed and turned.
Thus, he pushed open the door in his pajamas and walked to the balcony.
There was still heavy snow fall outside, and the cold wind was biting.
Looking up at the sky, he could still see the green aurora belt. The air here was unpolluted, and the stars were brighter than anywhere else.
At this moment, he heard the sound of the harmonica from the side.
The tune was mellow, as if weeping and complaining, just like the first time they met by the lake that summer.
However, as he listened carefully, he realized that there was more hope and future in the tune.
If the prelude was to fall into endless darkness, as the tune continued, it was as if a red sun pierced through the night and slowly rose from the sea, s.h.i.+ning in all directions.
He turned around and saw Mu Qing lying on the balcony of the neighboring house. She was also looking up at the starry sky like her, holding the white harmonica that he had given her many years ago.
After the song ended, Mu Qing turned to look at him with a charming smile.
Alt Qi, its been nine years since we first met.
Yes, we fulfilled the promise we made when we were young. Well walk together in the future.
As they looked at each other and smiled, it was as if they had returned to that summer night.
Feng Qi looked up at the starry sky again, and a warm feeling flowed through his heart.
At this moment, he felt extremely real.
Even if the future in every timeline was an unacceptable h.e.l.l, he had his own stories and experiences as he wandered and struggled through them.
Just like him now.
At this moment, he was in a good mood. He looked at Mu Qing and grinned.
Senior Sister, play the big river flows to the east, all the stars in the sky follows the Northern Dipper-
Mu Qing was speechless.
