I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

chapter 14 - Danger Arrives


“It feels good to be alive.”Sitting in the back of the military vehicle, Xiao Yunlong relaxed his body, and a deep sense of exhaustion washed over him. This was a side effect of the adrenaline injection, something even a Second-Order Spiritual Energy User like him couldn't avoid.“Yes,” Qin Dadi sighed, full of emotion.This operation had been a failure; they hadn't taken Golan Heights, and the casualties were quite heavy. The cannon fodder clone troops were almost entirely wiped out, with only about ten percent remaining, while elite soldiers suffered over thirty percent casualties. Many special squads were completely annihilated.They were truly fortunate to have survived and not sustained serious injuries.On the way to the military camp, the vehicle was rather silent. Even the usually talkative Xiao Yunlong said little. Everyone's thoughts were still lingering on the cruel battlefield, making it difficult to move on for a while.Beep beep~~Just as they were about to reach the military camp, the smart wristwatches of the three simultaneously chimed a few times. They opened them and immediately revealed expressions of pleasant surprise.“Oh my god, so many military points!” Xiao Yunlong straightened up instantly, his face full of excitement.Liu Zhaozhao's eyes lit up, and her previously somewhat tired face instantly became bright and charming.“This time, we're riding on Qin Tian's coattails,” Qin Dadi said, looking at Qin Tian with a smile. “If it weren't for Qin Tian, we might not even have a fraction of these military points.”In the recent major battle, the Earth Dragon Squad had actually only completed one mission: successfully killing a Second-Order Spirit Cat.Logically, they shouldn't have received many military points.However, Qin Tian had shone brightly during the war, with hundreds of Orcs dying by his gun. Even though these Orcs weren't killed by the other three, as members of the same team, they were able to share a considerable number of military points from Qin Tian.“Haha, Qin Tian, I love you to death!” Xiao Yunlong threw an arm around Qin Tian's shoulder, excitedly wanting to kiss Qin Tian's face, but Qin Tian reacted extremely quickly, immediately pushing his face away with his hand, saying with disdain:“Stay away from me.”“Wuwu, how heartless.” Xiao Yunlong pretended to be very sad, but couldn't maintain it for even two seconds before immediately breaking into a joyful smile.Pfft~Remember our 101kanshu.comLiu Zhaozhao couldn't help but laugh when she saw Xiao Yunlong's rapid change of expression.It was truly interesting to have a lively character in the team.She also noticed that Qin Tian was no longer as cold as before; he seemed to be becoming more “human,” capable of being speechless, nervous, and expressing concern for his teammates and... disdain.Qin Dadi smiled. Then he remembered something and said, “Qin Tian, the military headquarters is very fair, and you will also receive the military points you deserve. However, your identity is special, and you haven't registered your identity information within the Empire yet, so the military points cannot be issued to ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) you temporarily.”“But don't worry, once we return, I will immediately report to the logistics department to help you complete your identity registration as soon as possible.”Qin Tian was a clone, born only three days ago, so no one would have registered his identity for him.Within the Empire, not having an identity didn't mean it was impossible to move, but at the very least, normal commuting, travel, accommodation, and various welfare benefits could not be enjoyed.“Okay.” Qin Tian nodded.To be honest, he was very much looking forward to how many military points he would receive and what good things these military points could be exchanged for.Soon after, the large force arrived at the military camp.The command post ordered all personnel to immediately pack their luggage. Two hours later, the legion would withdraw from the camp and retreat to Lieyang Valley.“It seems the legion has completely given up on Golan Heights,” Qin Dadi sighed.So many people had died, and they still couldn't take Golan Heights. He felt truly unwilling in his heart.“Captain, there's nothing we can do about it. We just don't have enough manpower,” Xiao Yunlong said, being very open-minded.He had no obsession with Golan Heights; as long as he could survive and earn more military points, his goal for joining the army would be achieved.Now that he had accumulated his anticipated military points, it would be best if he didn't have to fight anymore.“Sigh, it's just a bit of a pity.” Qin Dadi shook his head.If there were more Spiritual Energy Users or Espers in the legion, they would definitely have been able to capture Golan Heights.In the thousand years of struggle against the Orc Empire, the Galaxy Empire, relying on its technological and weapon advantages, had always maintained a firm upper hand in non-supernatural competitions.However, the influence of Spiritual Energy Users and Espers on war was too great. If the high-end combat power didn't match, even the strongest weapons couldn't change the direction of the war.This was a world that belonged to the strong.High-level Spiritual Energy Users could, by their own power, destroy a legion, a city, or even a continent. This was something no weapon could compare to.“Forget it, there's no use talking about this now. Let's pack our things,” Qin Dadi waved his hand and walked into the room to pack his luggage.Xiao Yunlong and Liu Zhaozhao also went into the room to pack their things.Qin Tian entered the room and simply organized the items of the former marksman, Huang Xun. Useful items were put into the luggage, while temporarily useless ones were all thrown into the Space Sack.During this process, he continuously experimented and discovered that in addition to using his hands, any part of his body touching an item could absorb it into the Space Sack.This also solved a problem for him.Just now on the battlefield, he really wanted to collect some scattered firearms, combat knives, and equipment into the Space Sack, but if he picked them up, he would inevitably have to squat down or bend over, which was very inconvenient and easily aroused the suspicion of his teammates.But if he could also use his feet, he would only need to walk up to the target, give a gentle kick, and he could secretly take the item away without anyone noticing.Half an hour later, the Earth Dragon Squad, carrying their luggage, set off with the main force towards Lieyang Valley.......Night fell.The legion did not travel through the night but instead set up camp on the spot.The Earth Dragon Squad stayed in a large tent, only dozens of meters away from important logistical supplies.This was also the task they had just received: guarding the logistics department.“Hehe, good luck, we're not scheduled for patrol tonight.” Xiao Yunlong lay on the carpet, and before they had chatted for long, his eyelids grew heavy, and he quickly fell asleep.Subsequently, Qin Dadi and Liu Zhaozhao also fell asleep.After experiencing a brutal and dangerous war, everyone was too tired. They had held on until now purely by sheer willpower. Once their heads touched the pillow, exhaustion, like a mountain flood and sea tide, engulfed their will.Hoo~ Hoo~Snores rose and fell in the tent.Qin Tian clasped his hands behind his head, his eyes fixed on the tent's ceiling. For some reason, he was a little sleepless.The rich and colorful scenes of his previous life intertwined with the cruel and bloody battle scenes of this life, like a disordered slideshow looping in his mind.For a moment, he felt as if he had fallen into a dream, unable to distinguish whether the present was illusion or reality.......It was late at night, and outside the military camp, it was pitch black.Drone swarms patrolled the sky, and infrared radar covered an area of several kilometers, leaving no blind spots.Pfft~ Pfft~A small mound suddenly bulged in the ground a hundred meters outside the military camp. A massive snake head slowly broke through the earth, its body feeling cold, completely shielding it from infrared detection.Below it, the Shadow Cat unit was poised for action, their pairs of eerie green eyes like ghost fires, flickering with cunning and cruelty.
