Chapter 1856: The Suspicions of Two Generals (Please Subscribe)_1

Just as the two were wrapping up their discussion, Long Yuxue had already arrived at the forging room!

Seeing Luni sitting in the chair, she expressed her surprise, "Luni, you're here so early?"

After speaking, she walked over to Luni and wrapped her arms around the latter's...

Luni, seeing this, indulgently ruffled her hair as she seemed quite used to Long Yuxue's clinginess...

The most shocked was Tang Wulin who, in his eyes, saw the usually aloof Long Yuxue acting like a little girl, being all affectionate in front of Luni!

Noticing Tang Wulin's gaze, a few shades of red appeared on Long Yuxue's face, but she didn't let go...

Curiously, she started, "Luni, how did the talk go?"

Luni smiled, "We've pretty much wrapped it up. This handsome young man gave a fair price too!"

Long Yuxue nodded, "Is that so? That's good then!"

Luni stood up from the chair and said softly, "Time's about right. Young man, I'll count on you for that matter. I'll come back here the night after tomorrow!"

Tang Wulin also stood up and assured, "Yeah, I guarantee I'll fix it for you, Luni!"

Long Yuxue, upon hearing this, showed some disdain, "Shoo, shoo, shoo, how come you've started calling her 'Luni' too!"

After saying this, she said to Luni, "Luni, let me walk you out."

With that, the two left the forging room!

It wasn't long before Long Yuxue returned to the forging room!

Tang Wulin couldn't resist making a teasing remark, "Officer, I never expected you and Luni to be closer than I am with her!"

It was also a good thing he hadn't been too greedy with his price!

Long Yuxue gave him a glance, "Of course, when I was in the Ferocious God Legion, Luni helped me quite a lot!"

After pausing, she asked, "So, what did Luni come to see you for?"

Tang Wulin didn't conceal the truth, candidly saying, "To repair the Rapid-Fire Cannon Barrel, she said to pay five hundred Merit Points upfront and the rest after completion!"

Upon hearing this, Long Yuxue's eyes widened in astonishment, "What? A thousand Merit Points just for repairing a Rapid-Fire Cannon Barrel? Does it really cost that much?"

Then, frowning again, she said, "Wulin, Luni is my closest friend. It's not okay to cheat anyone, let alone her, understand?"

Previous times when people came to Tang Wulin for mecha repairs, he only charged a hundred Merit Points!

But this time, Tang Wulin was charging a thousand, especially from someone she was close to, which was hard for her to accept!

Tang Wulin immediately realized she had misunderstood and promptly said, "Officer, don't worry, I'm not making up prices. It indeed only costs a hundred Merit Points for a simple repair of the Rapid-Fire Cannon Barrel!"

"But Luni also requested forging with rare metals to enhance the quality, which is quite a difficult task. Charging a thousand Merit Points for that is not excessive!"

Long Yuxue looked skeptical, "Is that really the case?"

In Tang Wulin's sincere eyes, there was no trace of deception, "Really, if you don't believe me, you can go and ask Luni!"

After a moment of silence, Long Yuxue waved her hand dismissively, "Forget it, I believe you. After all, with your character, you're not the type to covet such petty profits!"

This statement made the corners of Tang Wulin's mouth twitch, "Officer, don't you think your attitude changed a bit too quickly? You just accused me of being avaricious!"

Perhaps, this is just how women are!

Long Yuxue pressed on, unapologetically, "So what? As your officer, I definitely need to test the character of my subordinates. Clearly, you've passed."

"Should I be thanking the officer now?"

"No need for thanks, just keep up the good work!"

...

Ferocious God Legion Headquarters!

A major respectfully began, "Report to the general, I have verified with Shrek Academy, and Tang Wulin is indeed one of the current Shrek Seven Monsters!"

Long Tianwu, upon hearing this, expressed surprise, "The Shrek Seven Monsters?? No wonder he is so outstanding, but why would the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion be willing to let them join the army?"

Inside Shrek Academy, the Shrek Seven Monsters could receive the best instruction and resources; there was really no need to send them to their resource-poor military district!

One of the lieutenant colonels pondered, "Perhaps those Elders of the Sea God Pavilion just simply wanted them to gain some experience!"

Another colonel shook his head, "No, the Holy Spirit Cult currently has its eyes set on Shrek Academy—a trial might just be an excuse to protect them!"

After all, it was just a few years ago that Shrek Academy had been bombarded by a Level Twelve Soul Guidance Shell!

As for why it was unscathed, no one knows the reason to this day!

"Hmm, I also think that if Shrek Academy were suddenly annihilated, these Shrek Seven Monsters scattered across various places could still develop in secret, serving as a contingency plan!"

"Speculating like this here might not be good, right? Shrek Academy is still doing fine after all!"

Long Tianwu glanced at everyone, reminding them, "We should keep these matters to ourselves; there is no need to say them out loud!"

Then, he continued, "Compared to Tang Wulin, I am more interested in that Xu Sheng, who was exceptionally promoted to major!"

"If General Long hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about this major. He hasn't been very active since joining the Blood God Army!"

"I remember that Tang Wulin seemed to say that Xu Sheng is his teacher! What do you think, could the latter be from Shrek Academy?"

"Impossible, I've never heard of a teacher from Shrek Academy reaching the rank of Titled Douluo! Of course, maybe I'm just uninformed!"

Another major contemplated, "General Long, why not summon this major and ask him directly?"

Discussing here is just conjecture; being proactive is better!

Long Tianwu nodded slightly, "Yes, that's what I was thinking!"

Immediately, he turned his gaze to one of the officers, "You, bring the newly joined major here!"

The officer stood up, respectfully saying, "Yes, general!"

...

A few minutes later, Xu Sheng and the officer entered the headquarters together!

Seeing the former arrive, Long Tianwu was the first to speak, "Major, let me introduce you, this is another major from our Ferocious God Legion!"

Xu Sheng, unflinching, gave a military salute, "Greetings, General!"

The major nodded slightly, seemingly surprised by Xu Sheng's young age and powerful strength!

Following that, Xu Sheng smiled and said, "May I know why the generals have summoned me? Is there something you need?"

Without guessing, he could figure out the generals' intentions!

It was obviously because Wulin had abruptly called him teacher upon joining, which had caught the attention of the officers!

Long Tianwu took a deep breath, attempting to inquire, "Hmm, as far as I know, Major, you are the teacher of another new recruit, Tang Wulin, correct?"

Xu Sheng did not deny it, "Yes!"

Long Tianwu's gaze grew more intense as he continued to question, "Then may I know at which academy Major served as a teacher?"

The corners of Xu Sheng's mouth curled up slightly, "Replying to the General, I once served as Tang Wulin's teacher at East Sea Academy!"
