The next day, a military aircraft landed discreetly at the barracks outside Silver City.
Yu Xian and Zhang Shou received a message from Jin Sheng after school and drove through two checkpoints, successfully entering the barracks.
"Captain!"
Yu Xian and Zhang Shou entered a room within the barracks and exclaimed in unison upon seeing Jin Sheng.
Jin Sheng was the only one in the room, looking as he always did, giving off a feeling of facing the sun directly—fiery and majestic, like a lion among men.
He looked at the two of them and chuckled, "I originally thought I'd be in Yanjing for half a year, but you two rendered another great service. However, this time the witnesses are of complex backgrounds, so the Headquarters quickly sent me back to escort you."
"Escort?" Yu Xian showed a look of curiosity.
Jin Sheng nodded, his smile fading as he looked at Yu Xian seriously, "The struggle between nations in the transcendent domain has never ceased. You made a huge splash the day before yesterday; don't think that just because you were wearing armor, no one knows who you are. Foreign hostile forces might already see you as a huge future threat and wish to eliminate you quickly."
The simplest way for foreign forces to infiltrate a country is to bestow transcendent power upon ordinary people and control them tightly through various contracts and death curses.
Many spies actually fall victim due to greed and are then forced to work for the other side.
Generally, these spies, in addition to collecting intelligence, are also responsible for eliminating unrisen geniuses. The battle between Yu Xian and Zhou Tai was so intense; although Yu Xian was fleeing and dodging the entire time, just surviving was already quite remarkable.
This was enough to draw the attention of some foreign hostile forces.
"Oh my, isn't Xian Yu very dangerous then?" Zhang Shou asked worriedly after hearing Jin Sheng's words.
Jin Sheng said indifferently, "That's why I came back early. Oh, and the things you asked for, now... Attention!"
The two immediately stood at attention, heads held high, looking at Jin Sheng.
Jin Sheng's expression was serious. He took out a box, removed the medal from it, and looked at Yu Xian earnestly, "After review and evaluation by Qilin Headquarters, Comrade Yu Xian played a crucial role in the Silver City incident, successfully disrupting the Alienated Insect infiltration plan, and played a significant role in the Alienated Insect riot. Hereby, on behalf of Qilin Headquarters, I award you the First-Class Merit Medal to commend your outstanding contributions and remarkable achievements!"
At this moment, Yu Xian's eyes were slightly red. As Jin Sheng pinned the medal to his chest, he saluted heavily, and Jin Sheng immediately returned the salute.
Next, Zhang Shou also received a Second-Class Merit Medal.
After the medals were awarded, both of them also received a storage ring, and Yu Xian also found that there were one hundred catties of silver in his ring.
"Originally, the commendation ceremony was planned to be held when you two went to the Headquarters, but as you know the current situation, according to research by the scientific research department, Zhou Tai has mastered the ability to activate transcendent creature bloodlines. We absolutely cannot give him more time, so our time will be very tight from now on," Jin Sheng said to the two.
Zhang Shou's eyes widened, and he asked, "Is Captain you responsible for annihilating Zhou Tai?"
"No, this operation will be personally commanded by General Zhao Yi from the Headquarters. All barracks in Silver City, Rong City, Xiang City, Jiang City, and Hua City will blockade an area of thirteen thousand eight hundred li centered on Dog-head Gold Mountain. Then, all members of our Evil Extermination Squad, as well as Zhan E Squad, Sin-Cleansing Squad, and Kill Demon Squad, will gather and enter the blockade area from different directions to eliminate all Alienated Insects and suspicious creatures," Jin Sheng replied.
Yu Xian and Zhang Shou were both slightly surprised upon hearing this; it was definitely a major operation.
"Alright, Death Doctor, please step out for a moment. I have something to say to Xian Yu," Jin Sheng then glanced at Zhang Shou and said.
Zhang Shou was startled, then nodded and left.
"Captain, what is it that Old Zhang can't hear?" Yu Xian asked curiously, watching Zhang Shou close the door.
Jin Sheng showed a look of envy and said, "I don't know if you're incredibly lucky, but the Headquarters actually agreed to your request."
Saying that, he walked to the table, picked up the alloy briefcase on the desktop, and after entering a series of passwords and verifying his identity, the briefcase slowly opened, and the temperature of the entire room instantly dropped.
Yu Xian looked inside the briefcase; it was a pen-style injector.
"This is the Pangu Blood you applied for. After comprehensive consideration, Qilin Headquarters has decided to approve your application. Now, inject it in front of me. This is a top-tier treasure that even the Blood Clan Progenitor couldn't obtain," Jin Sheng introduced.
He was truly envious. For a drop of Pangu Blood, he not only spent all his savings but also incurred a huge debt. Yet Yu Xian obtained it directly without even owing money.
"That... Captain, can't I just suck it with my fangs?" Yu Xian asked somewhat guiltily, looking at the Pangu Blood in the pen-style injector.
He was actually just curious about what Pangu Blood tasted like and had no intention of injecting it.
Jin Sheng looked at Yu Xian's greedy expression and felt his temples throb. He pinched the bridge of his nose and said irritably, "Do you know that injecting Pangu Blood will likely strengthen your bloodline abilities and even reduce your weaknesses?"
If Yu Xian injected the Pangu Blood into his body, he would likely transform from an ordinary Vampire into a Super Vampire, possessing more abilities that Vampires typically don't have.
Furthermore, Yu Xian was currently afraid of garlic, crucifixes, and energies with holy attributes.
After injecting Pangu Blood, it was highly probable that one or two weaknesses would be reduced. At that time, unless he was overwhelmed by absolute violence, it would be very difficult to harm him through tricky methods.
"But I still want to taste what it's like, after all, I'm a Vampire," Yu Xian said after hearing Jin Sheng's words, not changing his mind.
His talent awakened so quickly, it was hard to say when he might awaken strange talents like 'Garlic Blood,' 'Crucifix Eater,' or 'Holy Energy Absorber,' so he didn't care about these few minor weaknesses at all.
Moreover, he knew very well that if this application succeeded, it would be difficult for him to apply again in the future. From Jin Sheng's current situation, it was clear that applying through merit points was extremely difficult.
So, he had to seize this opportunity and taste the Pangu Blood to see how it differed from ordinary blood.
Seeing Yu Xian's unwavering resolve, Jin Sheng closed his eyes in a headache. After a while, he sighed, "Alright, after all, the Pangu Blood is a reward from the Headquarters to you. How you use it is your business, as long as you don't leave this room, you can do whatever you want with it."
"Thank you, Captain!" Yu Xian immediately said excitedly.
Jin Sheng watched Yu Xian pick up the pen-style injector, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Since you've decided, then don't regret it."
"Mhm, no regrets!" Yu Xian nodded.
Then, he pressed the pen-style injector against his fangs. With a slight push, blood surged out, and he instinctively absorbed the flowing blood.
As the Pangu Blood was absorbed by him, he began to experience blood drunkenness, and at the same time, his heart, which had previously not beaten, began to pound violently.
