Chapter 36 The Great Xia God's Conjecture
Upon hearing Li Jie's words, Instructor Hong's smile suddenly froze.
A reward? ...I haven't even held you accountable for breaking the rules and destroying so many drones, and you're already asking for a reward.
It’s really contrary to Tiangang!
Although they made history, whether they will be recognized by the head instructor is still uncertain...
Ultimately, he decided to pass this difficult problem on to Yuan, who was sitting in the training camp.
"You're all tired today, let's go back to the camp first, we'll talk about the rest later."
........
After Li Jie pushed open the dormitory door, he found a wooden bathtub placed between two plank beds.
The surface of the murky water was covered with some kind of 'spice' of unknown type, and the smell it emitted was indescribable.
He took off his military uniform and went to the wooden barrel.
The Night Watchers' secret medicinal bath is said to relieve fatigue and strengthen muscles and bones, and is of great benefit to both ordinary people and those who possess forbidden realms and cultivate spiritual power.
I just don't know if this thing will have any effect on my cultivation of true qi.
After he jumped into the wooden tub, the nearly depleted true energy in his dantian seemed to encounter some great tonic, and began to circulate wildly throughout his meridians.
Wow? This is really good stuff!
Li Jie was overjoyed and, without further delay, plopped down on the floor.
Today's extreme training left him extremely exhausted. When he discovered that while he was in a medicinal bath, the [Dahuangting] seemed to be able to operate automatically.
This made him immediately abandon the idea of meditation and cultivation. He finally had a chance to cultivate in full-automatic mode, so he decided to take this opportunity to rest.
..........
On the other side, the instructors gathered in the conference room were destined to have a sleepless night.
Yuan Gang sat in the head seat, leaning back in the leather chair with one hand supporting his forehead.
When he learned that Li Jie had broken through the drone swarm with a single sword strike and escaped Jinan Mountain with Lin Qiye, he couldn't help but feel a sense of defeat.
What kind of situation is this...? Everything was arranged so 'perfectly'.
In the end, those two greenhorns still managed to escape.
well........
He sighed heavily, tapping two fingers rhythmically on the conference table.
The soldier standing to the side stepped forward at the opportune moment and refilled his teacup.
Yuan Gang raised his head and looked at the instructors, each with their own thoughts, and slowly began to speak.
"Tell me your opinions on these two."
After he finished speaking, the only sound in the conference room was the tapping of his fingers on the table.
The instructors kept their eyes downcast and remained silent, as if by unspoken agreement.
"What, do I have to call roll again?"
He glanced at everyone in the room, and finally his gaze fell on Instructor Han, who was sitting in the middle.
"Han Li, you go first. You had the most contact with them yesterday, so your feelings should be the deepest."
Instructor Han, who was singled out, looked distressed.
Chief Yuan is right; he did fight those outrageous little monsters for a while yesterday.
But judging from the results, it was a one-sided crushing defeat no matter how you looked at it...
He hesitated, thinking that he had even been 'injured' himself.
"Sir, it seems I'm the last person who should have said this...after all, I was the one who got bullied..."
Yuan Gang's expression froze. Right, he seemed to have forgotten about that.
However, while Han Li's reasoning was valid, it was still necessary to express his own views at such a serious meeting.
He frowned and spoke seriously.
"Just say what I tell you to say, stop with all the nonsense!"
Seeing that his leader was a little angry, Instructor Han suppressed his dissatisfaction, gathered his thoughts, and said...
"Chief Instructor, colleagues, I think these two performed very well. Although Li Jie broke the rules and destroyed the drone in the end, it was also due to our..."
At this point, he hesitated to continue, since he had just exposed Yuan's past misdeeds at the meeting. If his superiors held a grudge against him, he would be in deep trouble.
In contrast, Chief Instructor Yuan, who was sitting at the head of the table, simply told him to continue speaking without any expression.
Han Li gritted her teeth and continued.
"Li Jie destroyed the drone only after we broke the rules first, so it cannot be said that he violated the rules."
Similarly, Lin Qiye sensed the location of the forbidden object in the forest through the [Mortal Divine Realm], thus determining the route to escape Jinan Mountain.
Regardless, through their combined efforts, they did indeed stray outside the scope of the training program.
Taking everything into consideration, I think they have indeed accomplished their goal.
As soon as Instructor Han finished speaking, all the instructors sitting around the conference table nodded in deep agreement.
Yuan Gang pondered for a moment, but ultimately accepted the result. Although the process had been somewhat bumpy, since they had managed to escape Jinan Mountain, that was their own skill. The only thing to consider was the reward. And what's next...?
"That's it for this matter. Consider these two lads done... The reward will be issued after I report to headquarters for review and decision."
"Now let's discuss another matter..."
Before he could speak, Instructor Hong, sitting next to him, murmured something.
"Li Jie's Forbidden Ruins..."
Although it was subconscious, his voice undoubtedly caused ripples in the otherwise calm conference room.
All the instructors sat up straight, waiting for something.
Regarding Li Jie's Forbidden Ruins, the Night Watch headquarters had already made a fairly accurate prediction, but some information was still missing.
Since Hong Hao had already started, Yuan Gang followed up with his words and began today's discussion.
"That kid's forbidden ruins appeared too strangely. Not only are they not found in the Night Watch's records, but they can't be found in any ancient books either."
He turned on the projector behind him, which flashed back to the scene of Li Jie fighting against [Masked].
"After I integrated all the information I knew and reported it to headquarters, I combined it with its specific manifestations and attack methods."
After professional analysis by the technical department, we have reached a preliminary hypothesis.
He paused here, looked around at everyone, and said something that made them unable to remain calm any longer.
"It is very likely related to the vanished deities of the Great Xia Dynasty..."
What? ! !
Yuan Gang's words were like a bolt from the blue, striking everyone's ears.
As everyone here knows, to date, no human has observed a single deity of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The question is, did they really disappear?
Of course not, but it's estimated that only the true high command of the Night's Watch would know these secrets.
Without exception, all the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty sacrificed their physical bodies to save all living beings, and are still in a dormant recovery phase.
Li Jie's Forbidden Ruins clearly has many elements of the Great Xia Dynasty. The black and white space generated when the Forbidden Ruins is released has a style of ink painting, and the sword energy it unleashes is light blue. Combined with its outrageous power, it looks like a god of the Great Xia Dynasty has appeared in the world.
Although the direction of the discussion at the Night's Watch headquarters may have been correct, the conclusion was wrong.
Li Jie is not an agent of any deity in the Great Xia Dynasty.
This cannot be blamed on them. After all, many old archives and ancient books were lost in various wars, and the archives on the Great Xia God were completely blank. It must have been difficult for the Night Watch's analysts to guess this.
Upon hearing this, Instructor Han said with a strange expression.
"So... Li Jie will be the first Great Xia deity we observe? But something feels off..."
