Chapter 1283 - Mission!

1283 Mission!

However, Ling Xiao’s weird behaviour made everyone in the Flying Dragon Special Forces anxious. They didn’t know what this superior of theirs, who frequently appears out of nowhere, wanted to do.

“Chief, Team Leader Cang sent this to you.” The senior colonel handed a thick folder of doc.u.ments to Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao took it and then waved his hand as a gesture to tell the senior colonel to leave.

The senior colonel carefully left the room. He was afraid to even slightly disturb his chief’s immense study session. As the door closed behind him, he breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He didn’t know whether it was just him, or whether the aura on his chief had gotten much stronger after he went to join the war. It was heavy enough to suffocate him just by being in his vicinity.

Ling Xiao raised his head and looked towards the door. He leaned on the back of the chair with his right hand behind his head. A devilish smile slowly formed on his face. “This is bad. Without Duplication, I can’t tone down my aura. Fooling these people is still easy, but it would be as easy if I face those sly old foxes.”

“I have to think of something…” Ling Xiao frowned. He couldn’t hole himself in the Flying Dragon Special Forces forever, especially when a war was about to start. He was now the Federation’s highest ranked officer tasked with roles of looking over the entire military. He must appear personally in the meetings of the higher ups in the military headquarters. That was the only way he could way over those other high ranking officers.

Ling Xiao couldn’t think of a way to resolve this issue at that moment, so he pushed the issue back to his mind and flipped through the doc.u.ments in front of him. The problem he was facing was not only on his aura, but he was also trying to make sense of the Flying Dragon Special Forces. He discovered that in the 20 years Ren Feiyu had taken control, the Flying Dragon Special Forces split into many separate factions. It was also quite messy in the recruits aspect. Originally, there should be two kings, one from the light and one from the shadow. They would usually both stay out of each other’s way and be responsible for their own missions. They would watch over each other and compete against each other. However, the new king of the shadow faction was actually sent to the light faction to be the new light king’s deputy. This act instantly broke the barrier between the two teams. Ling Xiao didn’t know what Ren Feiyu was thinking…

“It seems the seemingly glamorous Flying Dragon Special Forces actually has many internal problems. There also seems to be some corruption…” Ling Xiao smiled coldly. “There’s also this…” Ling Xiao picked up a special communicator. This wasn’t the communicator Ren Feiyu used publicly. However, what was strange was that the DNA linked to the communicator was indeed Ren Feiyu’s DNA.

Ling Xiao pushed down on it and a virtual screen appeared in front of him. The screen was filled with bits and pieces of details about some seemingly random people.

“Ren Feiyu, you have quite a lot of ident.i.ties huh… interesting.” Ling Xiao smiled. If someone else were to grab a hold of this communicator, they would not find anything suspicious with the details of the communicator, but with a bit of Ren Feiyu’s memories, along with the information he acquired beforehand, combining the two gave him an idea of what it was for.

“However, these two punks seem to have a connection with my daughter…” Ling Xiao flipped to the page with details about the new recruits. He looked at the two pictures as he smirked, “I can use them.”

Soon, a summon was sent out of the chief’s office. Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran, who had been training in the Flying Dragon Special Forces’ base while waiting for their new mission, were stunned when they received the summon.

Tang Ningyu wiped away his stunned expression and looked at Mu Chaoran with a joyful look. “Chaoran, this is your chance.” If he could be acknowledged by their chief, the misdemeanours Mu Chaoran had done in the past would be erased. Tang Ningyu was worried that Mu Chaoran might be completely abandoned by their leader in the future. If that were to happen, Mu Chaoran’s future wouldn’t be very good. If he was unlucky, he would be given a mission that could mean his death. He didn’t even know if he could come back alive from such a mission.

Tang Ningyu truly acknowledged Mu Chaoran. He didn’t want the person he acknowledged to go against their team leader and cause problems for himself because they were on different sides.

“The chief… how does he know the two of us?” Mu Chaoran held back his excitement and asked in disbelief.

As new recruits, although they were considered the kings of the new recruits, they were still not considered official members of the Flying Dragon Special Forces. The chief would only meet up with the leaders of brigades and teams. It was highly likely that the chief didn’t even know of their existence.

“Don’t worry about that. Let’s just go there immediately. We can’t be late if we want to leave a good impression with the chief.” Tang Ningyu quickly grabbed Mu Chaoran and rushed back to their dorms. After changing their uniforms, they sat on the hover car and went towards the Flying Dragon Special Forces command center.

At the command center, the senior colonel, who was the chief’s deputy, saw them coming in. He motioned towards them and directed them to the chief’s office.

“Chief, Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran have arrived,” the senior colonel reported from outside the door.

“Come in.” The chief’s voice was sharp and dignified. The voice made Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran raise their heads, straighten their backs and tighten their entire body in unplanned unison.

The door slowly opened and the senior colonel gestured to them to go in.

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran turned to look at each other. Then, they took a deep breath and walked into the room.

After walking into the chief’s office, they saw a large living room with a circle of sofas inside it. Further in, there was a large study that had a very large rectangular table. A sharp looking man wearing a general’s uniform was inside the room, flipping through doc.u.ments.

The man in the general’s uniform seemed to have realized the two of them had walked in. He stood up from his desk and walked out of his study.

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran finally saw the real face of their chief. It was more or less the same as the one they saw through the virtual video calls. However, he was more sharp and more dignified in person. The pressure he put upon them was much heavier. The closer they got near him, the heavier the pressure. The pressure was forcing them to bend their backs and kneel in front of him.

“Sit.” Ling Xiao gestured at the two of them to sit. He himself chose a random sofa and sat down. He then leaned on the sofa’s armrest.

Seeing their chief sitting down so languidly, Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran sat down prudently on the sofa facing their chief.

“I looked at the mission you have completed. All well done. Keep up the good work,” Ling Xiao said indifferently. Although it were words of praise, he still had a cold expression on his face. Seeing the cold expression, Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran wondered if their chief was being sarcastic. However, after thinking about it, they threw that thought out of their mind because if their chief was dissatisfied with them, he wouldn’t be so indirect about it.

“I summoned you here because I have a mission for you. This mission isn’t quite suitable for official members of the Flying Dragon Special Forces to do, but you two on the other hand are still in the probation stage. If it’s two of you, your actions will not draw too much attention.” Ling Xiao saw them being prudent so he just went straight to the point.
