I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

chapter 35 - New Mission


Over the next few days, Qin Tian was completely immersed in cultivation, his Spiritual Energy User power growing rapidly, and he quickly opened his first Star Acupoint, officially becoming a Tier 1 One-Star Spiritual Energy User.Not only that, his progress in the cultivation of Thunderclap Blade and Ninefold Lightning Flash was also very pleasing, and their application in actual combat became increasingly skilled."Qin Tian, Yunlong, Zhaozhao, we have a new mission."Inside the cafeteria, Qin Dadi looked at the new notification sent to his smart watch and said in a deep voice.Xiao Yunlong, with his mouth full of food, said indistinctly, "Didn't they say the war was almost over? Why is there a new mission?"Liu Zhaozhao wiped her mouth and asked, "Captain, what does the new mission require us to do?"Qin Dadi slowly said, "A few days ago, a company escorting supplies back to Lieyang Valley Base suddenly disappeared right before reaching the base. Afterwards, the base sent several squads to investigate clues, but these people also… disappeared."Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts sank.The disappearance of a company was no small matter, and the military must have sent elites to investigate the truth.However, these elites also disappeared, which indicated that the enemy was much stronger than expected."This kind of thing, it shouldn't be something we can handle, right?" Xiao Yunlong said weakly.To put it unpleasantly, among the many special squads at the base, the Earth Dragon Squad was at most mid-tier.There were many squads much more powerful than them.It should be those elite squads who take action.Qin Dadi explained, "This time, the military dispatched over 100 special squads in total. Our mission is just to investigate clues. If there's a tough nut to crack, it'll be up to other squads to solve it.""Oh, I see ~"Xiao Yunlong breathed a sigh of relief. If it was just an investigation, then there was no need to worry too much."When do we depart?" Qin Tian asked.Qin Dadi: "This afternoon, a fighter jet will take us to the designated location. Each squad is responsible for an area.""Alright, happy times are always short. Time to work again," Xiao Yunlong sighed.He had thought they could safely and steadily wait for the war to end at Lieyang Valley Base, but he didn't expect a new mission after only a few days of rest.He really didn't know what kind of opponents they would encounter next.Qin Tian lowered his head and gently bit the straw, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.He hoped to gain some more interesting talent light clusters this time....Whoosh~~~The fighter jet streaked across the sky, leaving a long white vapor trail.The four members of the Earth Dragon Squad sat inside the cabin, each fully armed.Qin Tian brought his “Hidden Kill” Rune Gun and Owl Dragon Rifle, and also received a good black steel battle saber from the logistics department.The battle saber was extremely sharp, capable of cutting hair blown onto it, and was very easy to use.Unfortunately, this saber was borrowed from the 319th Legion, and he would have to return it after the mission.Soon after, the fighter jet landed in an open plain.The four jumped out and looked around.As far as the eye could see, there was a vast expanse of brown land, as if the earth had been drained of its vitality by time, revealing a monotonous and dull color, lifelessly extending into the distance.Not far away, several low hills stood abruptly, with a few sparse, withered wild grasses growing on them."The squad we're looking for, they disappeared here and lost signal connection," Qin Dadi said, opening his electronic map. A red dot flickered in the center of the map.Every special squad wears a positioning device when on a mission, so that the command center can obtain their precise coordinates.Once a signal anomaly occurs, it indicates that the squad is facing danger and requires other squads to provide support.Whoosh~~~The fighter jet slowly ascended, blue flames spewing from its bottom. After reaching a hundred meters, the tail flames erupted, and it began its return flight towards the base."Wow, this guy just left without even saying hello."Xiao Yunlong pouted. He had a bit of an issue with the pilot just now, who not only ignored his attempts to talk but later also sternly told him to be quiet.What was a pilot being so arrogant for?"Different people have different personalities, let's try to understand each other."Qin Dadi patted his shoulder, then looked around, saying with some helplessness, "What I'm worried about now is, where should we start in such a large plain?"Xiao Yunlong shrugged, "If we really have no idea, let's just pick a direction and try our luck. Qin Tian, Zhaozhao, what do you two think?""Either is fine."Liu Zhaozhao nodded. She usually didn't like to express opinions and basically listened to Qin Dadi. She was a quiet and beautiful young girl.Qin Tian squatted down, picked up a handful of fine sand, and gently rubbed it with his fingers. The fine brown sand flowed through his fingers."Qin Tian, what are you doing?" Xiao Yunlong asked curiously.Qin Tian stood up, raising the handful of sand in the palm of his hand, "Look closely at this color."Upon hearing this, the three immediately gathered around, staring at the sand in Qin Tian's palm.Soon, they noticed something."Is this color a bit darker than the surrounding sand?" Xiao Yunlong asked uncertainly."It seems so," Liu Zhaozhao nodded in agreement."Qin Tian, what have you found?" Qin Dadi asked directly.Qin Tian slowly said, "There's blood in the sand.""Blood?"Xiao Yunlong blinked, then realized, "I knew why the color was darker, so it's mixed with blood! Wow, Qin Tian, your eyes are too sharp, you can even spot this!"Qin Tian didn't say anything. In fact, his eyesight wasn't that good; he had only smelled blood.The blue talent 【Shadow Muscle and Bones】 not only gave him the same explosive power, reaction speed, and flexibility as the Shadow Cat People, but also endowed him with extremely powerful senses of smell, hearing, and night vision.As soon as he stepped onto this land, he smelled a faint scent of blood under his feet, a very light scent.But there was no doubt that the squad they were looking for had met with trouble here."Qin Tian, are there any other clues, or can you provide a direction?" Qin Dadi asked.Unconsciously, Qin Tian gradually became the backbone of the team during every mission or battle.In combat, Qin Tian served as the arrowhead.And when making team decisions, Qin Tian's opinion would be the first to be considered.Qin Tian's nose twitched slightly, discerning where the residual blood scent in the air was strongest."Let's head this way first."Qin Tian pointed southeast."Alright, I'll follow your lead."Qin Dadi readily agreed."That's it?"Xiao Yunlong raised an eyebrow, "Isn't # Nоvеlight # that a bit hasty?"In his opinion, Qin Tian hadn't even squatted down to observe carefully; it was as if he had just pointed in a random direction.Although they really had no ideas and could go anywhere, it still felt a bit strange."Listen to Qin Tian."Liu Zhaozhao said. After so many events, she now trusted Qin Tian unconditionally."Alright."Xiao Yunlong didn't dwell on it either. After all, their mission was just to find clues; it was best if they found them, but there would be no punishment if they didn't."Depart!"The four stood in a line, walking towards the distance, facing the dim yellow sunset.
