Early the next morning, an urgent trumpet call broke the quiet of Heavenly City.
Lin Ran and the others were awakened by the sound of the trumpet, and one by one, they hurriedly got up.
But when they arrived outside the door, the golden-armored sword guards were already standing at the entrance.
“What’s happening …..”
Lin Ran busily asked, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the golden-armored sabre guard.
“What time is it! This is a military camp, not your home,? Don’t a*semble yet!”
Lin Ran’s face was icy cold as he immediately greeted the crowd and gathered them.
He was then led by the golden-armored sabre guards to the martial arts arena in the middle of the city.
At this moment, the martial arts arena was already overcrowded.
The many generals had all lined up.
Even Long Yang’s group was already standing neatly together, and it was actually the only one left that Lin Ran’s group had not yet made its way.
“General, Commander Lin’s party has been brought in!”
The golden-armored sword guards came forward to report back.
“Hmm!”
Long Mo stood up from his chair, his face ugly.
“Today is the first day you arrived at this Skywolf Domain to officially start accepting missions, is this how you are coping?”
Long Mo scolded.
“If there was a time of war, you guys would have died an unknown number of times!”
Lin Ran and the others had ugly faces, it wasn’t that they didn’t want to get up, but they hadn’t been informed at all.
“The notice went down last night to gather at seven o’clock in the morning for a few days, look at yourselves what time it is?”
Long Mo scolded.
“General Long, may I ask who informed us?”
Lin Ran retorted.
“Or is this another one of those things that no one admits to?”
“Unbridled!”
Long Mo scolded in a stern voice.
“Still making excuses even now!”
“Long Yang! Have you been informed?”
Long Mo looked at Long Yang.
“In reply to the General, I received it!”
Long Yang said, but there was a smile in his eyes.
“Why did you guys not receive it even after Long Yang received it, is your army so special every time?”
Long Mo scolded.
Lin Ran, however, smiled blandly, not bothering to say more.
“In that case, General Long will send it down, what else is there to say!”
“Heh!”
“Bull Sh*t!”
“Really invincible!”
A kind of general behind Lin Ran sneered.
If they had been lucky on the first day yesterday, this Long Mo would not have been able to keep giving Lin Ran little shoes.
But today, they sort of completely understood that this Long Mo simply did not spare any opportunity to clean up Lin Ran.
Even if it was just a collection, he would try to humiliate and make things difficult for him by all means.
And by now, they were all curious as to how their own commander, Lin Ran, had offended the Dragon Family and would incur such retribution.
“All right! This won’t be an exception! Next time you’re late, don’t blame me, Long Mo, for being unforgiving!”
Long Mo scolded.
Lin Ran then led his men back into line this time!
“Alright, next you will all receive, your first mission into the Skywolf Domain!”
Long Mo swept his gaze over the crowd, then with a wave of his palm, a military order flew out of thin air and appeared in the hand of Hu Chong, the deputy general next to him.
“Next, I will read out the military order!”
Hu Chong shouted aloud.
“With immediate effect, Long Yang’s team, under the command of Long Yang, will be stationed at the North Gate of Heavenly City, with Long Yang as the main force and the North Gate as the resident force, to hone the team as soon as possible!”
“With immediate effect, the team under Lin Ran’s command, stationed at the South Gate of Heavenly City, with Lin Ran as the main focus and the South Gate resident …… South Gate is not resident, sharpen the team as soon as possible!”
“No permanent presence? What do you mean?”
“Holy Sh*t! Why does it feel like we’re being punked again!”
The people on Lin Ran’s side all said secretly in their hearts.
The current ones no longer believed that Long Mo would be so kind as to a*sign them the same thing as Long Yang.
This sentence alone of not being resident had already been exposed.
I was afraid that Lin Ran’s treatment this time would be worlds apart from Long Yang’s again.
“Depart!”
As Hu Chong’s words fell, at once the golden-armored sword guards came before Lin Ran and greeted him.
“Come with me, Commander Lin!”
“Go!”
Lin Ran greeted, ? Not bothering to say much, he immediately led the men to follow the golden-armored blade guard out of the martial arts arena.
A moment later, Long Mo then walked off the pointing platform and personally led Long Yang to the northern gate of Heavenly City.
….
The North Gate of Heavenly City was the second most important hub of Heavenly City.
Apart from the main gate of Heavenly City, this north gate is where the largest number of soldiers are stationed in Heavenly City.
At this moment, at the north gate of Heavenly City, Long Yang looked down and saw the endless plains in front of him, but at this moment, the plains were all desolate.
Not to mention birds and beasts, there was not even a single green weed.
“Long Yang, look ahead!”
Long Mo pointed ahead and laughed.
“Five hundred miles ahead of the North Gate is where the enemy’s garrison is!”
“Five hundred miles?”
Long Yang frowned slightly, this distance was not far for cultivators, and this was still a battlefield, a garrison 500 miles away, definitely considered a thorn in the flesh.
“Uncle Long, wouldn’t this place be unsafe then?”
Long Yang asked busily.
Long Mo smiled at his words but smiled.
“Don’t worry, their Wolf Clan wouldn’t dare to come to our Heavenly City to cause trouble, just like we never dare to break into their Wolf City either!”
“Although our two forces are neck and neck, each city is carefully designed, and once you enter it you will die in nine ways! Even I am not absolutely sure that I can walk out of Wolf City alive!”
Saying that, Long Mo fished out a token from his bosom and threw it to Long Yang.
“Now you think it’s dangerous, but when you refine this token, you won’t think so, and by then the garrison 500 miles away will all be a battle in your eyes!”
“O?”
Long Yang was curious and couldn’t help but glance at the token in his hand.
He saw that there were two words written on the token, “Battle List!”
“Battle List? What is this?”
Long Yang frowned slightly, and immediately began to refine it.
……
At the south gate of Heavenly City, Lin Ran was standing on the city tower at this moment, helpless.
The entire South Gate was empty, and the one person that was there, or an old man who was in charge of cleaning the South Gate’s pavilion, was a former retired general.
“Ranzi! F**k this Long Mo is too bullying, giving us such a place to guard, not to mention the enemy, I’m afraid we can’t even see the shadow of the enemy.”
Wang Yifeng was upset and said.
“Yes! Boss, look at that plain outside, the rest of the place is desolate, but we’re lucky to have greenery here, how long has it been since there’s been a F**king war!”
Li Ba also said from the side.
Lin Ran naturally noticed that another layer of greenery had sprung up on the plain outside his southern city gate, it had obviously been too long since there had been a battle!
“Commander Lin! The old man sweeping the floor outside is looking for you!”
Suddenly, one of Lin Ran’s own men came running in awkwardly at the door.
“What’s he doing here? Blast him away!”
Wang Yifeng said in no good humour, he was angry at the moment.
“Don’t!”
Lin Ran hurried to stop.
“Bring him in!”
Lin Ran said.
“Yes!”
The henchman busily retreated and soon, the old man was brought in.
“My subordinate pays respects to Commander Lin!”
The old man wasn’t young, he had to look to be in his seventies, but his entire essence looked, well, good!
“Senior, you’re looking for me for something?”
Lin Ran got up and asked.
Although the other party was only a sweeper now, he had retired from the war after all, and Lin Ran still had great respect for such people!
“Senior, I dare not, I have an object to give to you! It was left behind by the last commander of the Southern City!”
As the old man said this, he took out a quick token from his pocket and handed it to Lin Ran, which was the “Battle Ranking” token.
