Chapter 218 - Major Grandmaster



Chapter 218: Major Grandmaster

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Old school six-star martial artist, Ni Kun, who had lived through many storms of shots and shells, was dead.

The last battle of his life was neither splendid nor grand and spectacular.

Losing his lively life in such a dull battle left many people somewhat dismayed. He was killed by a martial artist of the same level instantly.

Wang Hao lightly shook his wrist as he hid the Netherworld Shadowless Needle back into his sleeve. Curiosity quickly flashed past his eyes before a jubilant smile appeared on his face. He kept on applauding as he said, “Sure enough, I didn’t misjudge the person. By taking the evolution pearl, I believe your future martial dao will be unimpeded.”

“I would also like to thank the General.” Chen Feiyu lightly cupped his hand. “Without you, I may not have had the chance to break through in this life.”

Hearing this, Wang Hao broke into laughter as his entire body exuded a heroic and domineering aura. He looked completely satisfied with Chen Feiyu’s reply. He had only mentioned evolution pearl once, and the other party immediately responded. Furthermore, he even used “in this life” to describe it. Such a huge favor would play a huge role in the days to come.

Chen Feiyu simply accompanied Wang Hao with his laughter. There were obvious differences in the understanding of “I may not have had the chance to break through in this life” between the two.

Had it been an ordinary day, Wang Hao would have clearly noticed the deep resentment hidden in Chen Feiyu’s tone for sure. But today, Wang Hao had encountered too many things that had stirred his emotions. Also, although the possessor of the Copper Solar Constitution wasn’t as strong as Qin Fen, he still had unlimited future prospects. Rarely would he make any misjudgments.

Ming Kun, who was following Chen Feiyu, suspiciously sized him up. That momentary eruption in his strength almost violated all the martial art’s common sense. He wasn’t like Qin Fen, who relied purely on his physical strength to push his speed, but rather with the combination of true energy and physical strength to achieve that kind of eruption.

Indeed, Chen Feiyu could use this skill during his fights in Gruesome Madness. However, the growth of this skill with the improvement of Chen Feiyu’s strength was simply too much.

Previously, this technique still had a bit of flaw in it. Perhaps it was highly improbable for the same level six-star martial artist to notice it, but it was absolutely impossible to hoodwink a higher star-class martial artist.

But today, Ming Kun couldn’t see any glaring flaws in this technique at all. It was as natural as the floating clouds and flowing water.

Unless this skill had been instructed by some highly talented master. Otherwise, even if Chen Feiyu had God-given wisdom and talent, it would be impossible for Chen Feiyu to breakthrough and eliminate the flaws in just a week or so!

A master!? Thinking of a highly talented master, Ming Kun’s face was laced with even more uncertainty. These days, Chen Feiyu had only been in contact with Qin Fen before entering their territory.

However, if Qin Fen was that master who guided Chen Feiyu, Ming Kun would be the first to deny it!

As everyone returned to the hall, the soldiers who had seen the fight were all looking at Chen Feiyu with awe in their eyes. It was as if they had completely forgotten that this man had just arrogantly made a seemingly unreasonable request to the General. They had completely forgotten that this newly recruited member had personally killed Ni Kun, who had once fought with them side by side.

And when their gazes fell upon Qin Fen, their eyes were filled with more than just praise and admiration.

Qin Fen didn’t feel much discomfort at all. He might have lived here for only a short period of time, but he fully understood the philosophy of the jungle. It was a place where the weak were the prey to the strong.

Only those who were stronger, more ruthless, and had hands dyed in more blood than the others could survive here!

Sitting in the most central location was Wang Hao, looking quite a bit like an ancient emperor. With a face beaming with smiles, he spread his arms out. “Everyone, my Emperor Army had always been fair in meting out rewards or punishments. It’s like the Federation where it depends on seniority. Today, everyone has seen Qin Fen’s performance. With his pair of iron hands, he tore the life out of an eight-star mutated beast, earning a ton of powder for my Emperor Army. He has made great contributions by destroying the face of Wu Lianda’s Black Cloud Army! Although he was a recruit before, this General will now promote him to the rank of major in accordance with the rules.”

Just as Wang Hao said this, Qin Fen could hear the gasps of everyone in the hall who was participating in the meeting.

Everyone stood gazing at each other, being at a loss as to what to do. Although the rank system of the Golden Triangle wasn’t like that of the Federation, which depended on the terms of seniority, every promotion and demotion in here was carried out depending on the military merit.

But, just a moment ago, Qin Fen was just a recruit, and in the next second, he was a major. Even in the Golden Triangle, this kind of thing was rarely seen.

Major! There were only a few in the Emperor Army! But they were considered VIP who could command more than five hundred people! It would not be too much to say that they were a feudal lord of a region.

He went into seclusion training, and the very first day he came out, he fought in a life and deathmatch and it was enough to turn him into a small feudal lord of a region!? Everyone sitting in the room didn’t say anything but some disagreement could clearly be seen in their eyes.

Everyone’s look was in Wang Hao’s full view. There was a faint complacent smile on his lips.

He needed precisely this kind of reaction! Qin Fen had beat the life out of an eight-star mutated beast with his fist just after entering the Emperor Army. If he couldn’t stir up a dissatisfaction towards Qin Fen in others, it would naturally turn into awe and admiration, which would ultimately make many things difficult.

Dissatisfied as everyone was, they didn’t really raise any objections. Not too long ago, Qin Fen had torn the fish-scaled gorilla into two with his bare hands as wildly as a demon. That scene was still vivid in their minds. No one wanted to offend him at this juncture.

“Haha...” Wang Hao broke into a light laugh. “Then, it’s decided! Qin Fen will be awarded the rank of a major!”

Qin Fen started to think that he was in the Federation, a recruit who had not truly left the recruit camp. Yet having arrived here, he’s already been promoted to the ranks of a major in the blink of an eye. God knows how those drill instructors would react when they came to know of this matter.

Everyone hastily stood up and congratulated him. Qin Fen kept on nodding with a slight smile on his lips.

Once the commotion died down, Wang Hao opened his mouth again, “However, my Emperor Army currently has no redundant position for a major battalion commander. As Major Qin has just entered my Emperor Army, I am afraid he has no experience in large-scale commands. I think it’s better to start with a team of a few dozen men!”

As everyone returned to their original seats, many of them had intriguing smiles on their faces. The rank of major with no real military power in exchange for a ton of powder. General, this deal is worth it!

With Qin Fen appointed as a nominal major, naturally, everyone wouldn’t be dissatisfied with Qin Fen. More importantly, no one would be dissatisfied with Wang Hao’s sudden promotion of new recruits.

Qin Fen gave a standard military salute to Wang Hao as he similarly sneered in his heart.* A dozen or so subordinates!? Officially, it’s giving me subordinates, but in fact, I’m afraid it’s more like keeping an eye on me, isn’t it?*

“As for Chen Feiyu...” Wang Hao dragged his words as he looked somewhat embarrassed.

This man hasn’t made the slightest bit of contribution. What’s more, the first thing he did after exiting his secluded training was killmy second lieutenant. In any case, he can’t be rewarded, let alone given a higher rank.

Wang Hao heaved a sigh. “How about you start as a private first?”

The foundation of the rapid development of the Emperor Army was the clear distinction between rewards and punishments. That was the only reason that the centripetal force of today’s army could be achieved. If because of Chen Feiyu, he broke the rules, it was highly likely that nobody would be here tomorrow.

In the Golden Triangle, those who had the ability would always go up and those who were mediocre would go down. This was the iron law followed by every lord of this place. If anyone failed to follow this rule, his or her subordinates would feel that there weren’t any bright prospects with him or her. They would disperse overnight. And it was not rare for them to run to the enemy camp.

Chen Feiyu gave a military salute that was much worse than Qin Fen. After all, he did not have any experience of serving in the army, unlike Qin Fen, who had military spirit forcefully instilled into him by many drill instructors.

“Finally, Lin Ling...” Wang Hao pondered in silence for a bit. “You should also start as a private. Lieutenant Colonel Ming Kun, you will see which unit has a vacancy and assign her to it.”

“I want to be Qin Fen.” Lin Ling immediately reached out and grabbed Qin Fen’s arm as she proclaimed in an ice-cold and resolute voice that wasn’t too loud but enough for everyone to hear it clearly.

“This won’t do.” Wang Hao’s face suddenly darkened. “My Emperor Army has its own rules, everyone must obey the arrangements. Since you have joined my Emperor Army, you must obey it completely.”

“I want to be with Qin Fen.”

Lin Ling’s voice was more determined as she stared back at Wang Hao with an uncompromising attitude.

“Private Lin Ling.” Wang Hao’s face clouded even more as his eyes radiated with a blade-like cold gleam. “This is Emperor Army, all you can do is obey.”

“I want to be with Qin Fen.”

Lin Ling’s tone was already filled with stubbornness. She was completely ignoring that gloomy look of Wang Hao’s.

For a moment, the frostiness on Wang Hao’s face grew thicker as the sharp look in his eyes slowly became deep and silent.

It was always quiet before a storm.

“General.” Ming Kun’s shout broke the silence of the hall. “I just checked, almost every place is full. But Major Qin doesn’t have any subordinates under him.”

Wang Hao’s clouded face slowly turned warmer as he waved his hand. “Since that’s the case, then, assign her under Major Qin.”

Everyone present in here repeatedly sighed in their heart. In the Emperor Army, only Lieutenant Colonel Ming Kun could speak in this kind of situation without infuriating General.

“Lieutenant Colonel Ming Kun, assign other members of Major Qin’s squad.” Wang Hao slightly pondered a bit. “His squad will have ten members. Since Major Qin has just joined, there are many things he still isn’t clear about. Assign three seasoned soldiers to help him.”

“Yes, General.” Giving a salute to Wang Hao, Ming Kun arrived before Qin Fen and said, “Major Qin, please follow me.”

Very soon, Qin Fen’s men were all assigned to him. Apart from Lin Ling, there were nine other men in his squad.

Only, the composition of his men wasn’t the same as Wang Hao said, which was three seasoned soldiers and six recruits.

All nine men were seasoned soldiers! The only difference was that the six seasoned soldiers were pretending to be recruits, while the other three simply didn’t need to pretend.

The nine men introduced themselves. Watching the six-seasoned soldiers doing their best to disguise themselves as recruits, Qin Fen sneered and smiled coldly in his heart.

They attained a certain level in disguise. Even a seasoned soldier with some experience might be fooled by them.

Unfortunately, compared to the skills of the camouflage drill instructor of recruit camp, as well as the tough psychological analysis skills of Squad Leader Hao, the skills of these six old soldiers who were pretending to be recruit truly looked somewhat immature.

After a simple introduction, Qin Fen turned his head and asked, “Lieutenant Colonel Ming Kun, can I take my people to choose their weapons now?”

“Of course.” Ming Kun shrugged his shoulder. “General has always wanted to create a rapid action special force like that of Federations. However, he had never found the right talent. Major Qin has killed his way through the Federation and even killed special forces. I think this can also be a specialty in this regard. General gave you this squad because he is hoping that you can train a special force that could counter the Federation’s special forces.”

“I will try my best.”

Qin Fen did not decline and followed Ming Kun.

The nine seasoned soldiers that followed Qin Fen sized him up. They had all heard of him killing an eight-star fish-scaled gorilla with his bare hands.

However, hearing and personally seeing with their own eyes were two different things.

The seasoned soldiers were somewhat skeptical about such rumors. They even believed that their omnipotent General Wang Hao had used some special means to help Qin Fen kill the fish-scaled gorilla.

A six-star martial artist killing an eight-star fish-scaled gorilla was basically no different from fantasy.

Under Ming Kun’s leadership, Emperor Army’s armory was as open as a supermarket to Qin Fen. He could take people to choose any weapon or part that he wanted.

The nine-seasoned soldiers didn’t immediately rush to choose their weapons, but collectively followed behind Qin Fen, hoping to see what this young man would choose.

Major!

This rank was too high in the Emperor Army. The nine-seasoned soldiers had also lived through storms of shots and shells. They had many military achievements under them as well. Nonetheless, the three highest ranks among them were only that of a second lieutenant.

Qin Fen’s rank of major was really too eye-catching.

Especially those who had not participated in the meeting and seen him literally tear the fish-scaled gorilla with his bare hands were having a hard time imagining it.

Even if it was the command of Emperor Army’s General Wang Hao, everyone was still feeling a knot in their hearts.

As Qin Fen slowly made his way into the armory and casually browsed through the weapons, he was secretly shocked. The quantity and quality of the equipment here were much better than the intel provided by the army. It seemed that the army’s intel needed to be updated.

Having walked through two containers, Qin Fen saw some of the things he had always wanted.

According to several drill instructors and Squad Leader Hao, a well-qualified soldier was the one who always carried a glorious bomb with him. The one last bomb that he could use at the end of his road to end himself as well as drag up his enemies to be buried with him.

Qin Fen, who had studied under the drill instructors for some time, always wanted to make a glorious bomb of his own. It was just that he didn’t need that kind of stuff in the recruit camp, so he never made it.

He had been meaning to make it when he left for a mission, but he was short on time. He had been immediately thrown on the plane, giving him no opportunity to pick even the materials.

This time, with the drug lord providing the materials...naturally, he won’t go easy on it.

The first thing he picked up was RDX, which was once known as the king of explosives, and was equivalent to one hundred and fifty-eight percent of a TNT.

With the advancement of technology and development, the glorious title, king of explosives, had long since been removed from RDX’s name. While many people were studying newer explosives, the Gun King, relying on his own techniques and experience, had developed a new type of explosive with RDX as its base which was no less inferior than the current king of explosives.

The only difference between the two was that the stability of newer generation RDX was even more shocking. People who couldn’t use it could hold it in their hands and use it as a brick. It was really hard to use it to blow people.

“Major, you are...?”

Only after taking few other explosive materials did Qin Fen finally turned around and say, “When I killed the special forces, I discovered that each and every one of them carried a glorious bomb on them. On one occasion, I was almost blown up by that stuff. Since I am the commanding officer of the Emperor Army’s special forces, I should also follow their example.”

Listening to this, the facial muscles of the seasoned soldiers and Ming Kun twitched constantly.

Federation’s special forces carrying glorious bombs with them wasn’t any some confidential secret. Only, most of them used high-end hand grenades as their glorious bombs.

Using a thing like RDX as a glorious bomb? Are you crazy?

Having procured the materials, Qin Fen casually made his way to another self, grabbed a G36 and threw it to a brawny man with red eyebrows before speaking, “This barely fits you. If you want it more suitable for yourself, take it and modify it yourself.”

The eyes of nine seasoned soldiers flashed with surprise at the same time. They had just given a self-introduction, they didn’t introduce their specialty. Yet this young man casually grabbed a gun and dared to speak like this.

Furthermore, what he said was quite accurate!

Throughout the arsenal, the seasoned soldier with the nickname of “Red Eyebrows” could use a lot of weapons, and a few them could use them quite perfectly. However, the G36 gave him the feeling that it was his specialty.

After walking through a few more containers, Qin Fen grabbed another gun and threw it backward. “This one barely fits you. If you want it more suitable for yourself, take it and modify it yourself.”

After walking through most of the armory, Qin Fen did the same thing nine times.

When he finished it for the ninth time, not only were the nine seasoned soldiers behind him left gawking, even Ming Kun’s eyes were filled with shock.

No need for an introduction — just a look was enough for him to know what was the person’s weapon specialty was. This could only be achieved by those who play with guns day in and day out.

In the entire Golden Triangle, perhaps only a few could do it in this way.

“Major...” Red Eyebrows took a long, deep breath. “Your specialty is...?”

“My specialty?”

Since entering the armory, Qin Fen showed a hesitant expression for the first time.

Seeing this expression, Red Eyebrows secretly thought, Does he only have a good eye and not much of a practical ability?

Qin Fen answered, after having pondered for a bit, “My specialty is any weapon.”

“Any weapon?”

In addition to the nine seasoned soldiers and Ming Kun, an armorer had also followed Qin Fen into the armory. He was the first to show contempt on his face. “You think you are a grandmaster of firearms?”

The nine seasoned soldiers kept their mouth shut. All of the expressions in their eyes showed that they believed Qin Fen was bragging.

Only Ming Kun who, while surprised, believed it completely.

That day in the VIP box, with just a mere touch of General Wang Hao’s gun, he had immediately said that it was scrap gun, without so much as checking it once. This couldn’t be faked.

“Grandmaster?” Qin Fen shook his head. “I haven’t reached that high of a level. Perhaps I am barely qualified to be called a master.”

“Master?” Looking at that major insignia on Qin Fen, the armorer constantly sneered in disdain. “If you are a master, then, I am a grandmaster.”

The nine-seasoned soldiers kept their silence together. If Qin Fen had said something like he specialized in two weapons, they might accept it. However, they found it hard to believe that he was an all-weapon specialist.

“Major Qin...” Ming Kun heaved a sigh. “In fact, I want to see your marksmanship.”

Qin Fen looked at the nine seasoned soldiers beside him. If he could not deter them, perhaps they would start monitoring him even more unscrupulously in the future. Even if he was observed in broad daylight, he would not have the means to refute them. It was also necessary to show his hands properly.

In the Golden Triangle, whoever’s fist was harder, marksmanship more accurate, and overall more ruthless was the King!

Qin Fen was too lazy to bother talking any nonsense with them. He reached for one of the two bags and without even taking a look, casually started grabbing the guns and stuffing them in until it was full.

With the other bag, he was relatively more careful. This bag was equipped with various modification parts.

Only, these parts look somewhat strange to the seasoned soldiers.

Modifying a gun also needed some logical things to follow. Many of these parts were counterproductive; combining them together would only hinder the performance of the weapon. With all these things collected together, it begged the question: would even a chicken be killed by the gun modified by these things.

The shooting range was just behind the armory. Qin Fen, standing before a pile of guns, casually picked up an M60 and attached an ammunition belt to it before pulling the trigger without any kind of preparation.

Bullet shells rapidly flew from one side as gunfire suddenly resounded through the shooting range.

The smile on armorer’s face standing next to Qin Fen almost distorted with joy.

The expression on the faces of nine seasoned soldiers together with Ming Kun slowly changed from a dignified look at the beginning to a perplexed look, and then finally, to a very disdainful look.

What the hell is this? So random? The nine seasoned soldiers watched Qin Fen shoot aimlessly. More importantly, there were only a few bullets that hit the distant bull’s eye.

Click Click Click...

After Qin Fen had completely wasted the long chain, the M60 was finally empty.

Qin Fen, placing the gun on the ground carefully, picked up the bag full of parts and took Lin Ling’s hand before turning around and walking away. He left behind only a few words that echoed in everyone’s ears. “Tomorrow morning, at my door, five o’clock sharp.”

The armorer started to sneer as he muttered. “With this third rate marksmanship, you dare to say you can use anything!? You dare to leave such an arrogant message!? Do you think just pulling the trigger is called firing?”

Ming Kun was also curious. Ever since he had met Qin Fen, he felt that this young man wasn’t someone who played petty tricks and always conducted himself in an upright manner. Then, how could he do such a senseless thing?

Under his curiosity, Ming Kun walked across the shooting range.

“This...”

Approaching closer, Ming Kun’s body suddenly quivered.

A bullet had passed through the center of each target, which was almost impossible to achieve at that kind of high-speed shooting.

However, this was still not the real reason his body was shaking.

Today’s shooting was very rushed. There was no rubber plate behind the target that was generally used for maintenance. Only when he went a little closer did he realize that the bullets had pieced together a line of words. “Tomorrow morning, at my door, five o’clock sharp.”

As he approached closer, he realized that the distance between these bullets was exactly the same! Of course, this also included the bullet at the center of each target.

“This...”

Only at this time did the seasoned soldiers, along with the armorer who was trailing Ming Kun, finally realize what Qin Fen just did.

At this time, the armorer’s face turned incomparably pale. With nothing to do, he could only try to understand the performance of each weapon to kill time. Naturally, he was well aware of the basic features of the M60.

The theoretical fire rate of the M60 was between 500 and 650 rounds per minute. With such a high fire rate, it was highly difficult to hit all the bull’s eyes in here. And, to do it in a way where the distance between each bullet was the same...Is this guy even human?

Ming Kun, in addition to shock, secretly lamented in his heart. “General, this time you have truly made a mistake. This young man’s value is much greater than Chen Feiyu.”
