Chapter 314
314 Joining the military, Benjamin’s wedding
link flipped through the tabloids on the streets. as they were tabloids focused on gossip, there were no page restrictions, so the news was even more explosive.
There was also a timeline on the streets. From the time link first entered Shandu to the time he confronted the other forces yesterday, only three months had passed. In between, he had killed the leader of the Jack gang and taken over. To getting rid of the White Crane Hall and becoming one of the six halls of the water transportation gang; Then to the rare animal beauty contest, he went against the Uptown nobles and established the pig banquet.
Along the way, Link’s style of doing things had always been flamboyant and head-on.
The opponents he encountered were always stronger than him, but he never had stage fright. He always chose to face the difficulties.
however, the more lin ke read, the more he felt that the style was strangely familiar. at first, it looked very realistic, but soon, the details of the battle scene that he was in made it seem unreal to him. Link skipped the middle and went straight to the end. He finally found the reason for the familiarity.
at the end of the report, it said,”this report is interviewing an old man of qilin hall who doesn’t want to be named. the report is true.”
Seeing the words ‘the old man of the Qilin Hall who doesn’t want to be named’, link understood everything.
Qilin Hall only had one old man.
Link could already imagine the scene of the old man in his undershirt, a tea pot in one hand and a fan in the other when the reporters interviewed him.
Although nearly 80% of the content in the interview manuscript had been modified and beautified, there was one thing that the old man did not exaggerate, and that was this interview-
The reporter asked,”Grandpa, what do you think of Master Lin?”
The grandpa who didn’t want to reveal his name thought,”clan leader Lin, what else can you say?” i’ve never seen such a perfect person. If you really want to say it, then I’ll say it from these few angles. the first was his appearance. there was nothing to say about this. he had sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, and a handsome face. he was now the dream lover of all the women in shatu. In terms of personality, he has a will as strong as steel. Ever since he entered the sand capital, he has encountered many powerful enemies, but he has never backed down. He will draw his sword whenever he meets an enemy. This is also the reason why the hall is so proud of us.
After reading it, link frowned. He didn’t remember saying anything like that.
However, it was quite reasonable, and others couldn’t say it. It must have been accidentally said when he was talking to everyone and was heard by the grandpa.
Yes, that must be the case.
link put down the newspaper. the reports were basically the same.
Since the Qilin Hall had successfully resisted the Alliance of the four major forces in the slums yesterday, the Qilin Hall was destined to walk on a path that no one had ever walked before.
The four major forces in the slums would never return, and there would be five major forces in the future.
Lin Ke took out his phone and called Li Ziqi.
“hey, old li, are you free today? I’m going to the military department to take up a post today. If you’re free, come over and be my guide. I also have some questions to ask you.”
“what a coincidence, i also have something to tell you. I’ll see you at the entrance of the military headquarters later.”
Link hung up and walked out of the backyard.
In the front yard, he saw an old man squatting at the foot of the south wall, basking in the sun and chatting.
when the old man saw link, he shivered in fear. from his twinkling eyes, he knew that he was up to no good.
Link was in a good mood. He patted the old man’s shoulder as he passed by.”The interview was well said.”
the grandpa’s face bloomed into a smile when he heard that, but his wrinkles were twisted together like an old chrysanthemum.
Link thought that with the old man’s eloquence, he could definitely be trained to become the Qilin Hall’s official spokesperson in the future.
He picked a member and drove him to report to Uptown headquarters.
Today, other than joining the military, link also had to find Li Zijun to consult her on the issue of being promoted to a leader.
[ the path of promotion ] required him to consult a commander-level NPC on the promotion method. The only leader-level NPC that Lin Ke knew and had a good relationship with was Li Zijun.
I’ll use this guy as a tool and bring him through the military registration process today.
When they arrived at the Uptown district, a Jeep was already waiting at the gate.
After link got out of the Jeep, Li Zijun, who was in the front passenger seat, also got out. She looked at link and said awkwardly, ” are you thinking that sandu isn’t lively enough today? are you preparing to make some more news? ”
Today, the entire Sand City, from the government to the citizens, was only discussing Link’s matter.
In the past, other than general alongso, only Derek, the king of the underground black market, and Moroes, the economic Emperor, had such influence and fame.
Now, there was an additional name behind the names-link.
This guy ‘couldn’t wait’ to report to the military today. Was he preparing to push the fire even higher?
“with my current influence,” said link,”every move i make is news. do i need to make more news?” I’m here today to ask you about some things. Reporting to you is just a convenient excuse.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, you’re indeed a figure on par with the three emperors of Shudu. tell me, what’s the matter?”
“There’s no rush,” said link,”let’s find a place to sit down and talk after we’re done with the procedure.”
Lin Ke took the letter of appointment and walked into the military area with Li Zijun.
The military area was huge, and a solemn square was right in front of them. At the far end of the square was a five-story office building.
the military office is right in front. The general signed the letter of appointment yesterday, and with last night’s incident, I’m sure the military already knows about you.
The process was just as Li Zijun had said. Link was now a well-known figure in the entire Shatu. In addition, he was the leader of a gang in the slums, the killer of The Platinum Hotel, and the battalion commander of a newly established Department. These three identities were unprecedented. Every time he arrived at a Department, the clerk in charge of administrative duties would secretly look at link. People in other positions also ran over to watch. There were even many female soldiers who risked leaving their posts to see what the dream lover of all the noble women in the Uptown looked like.
After completing all the procedures, Li Zijun patted Link’s shoulder awkwardly and explained, ” “They’re not usually like this.”
“I understand. After all, there aren’t many as handsome as me in the Army,” said link, nodding.
Li Zijun brought link to the meeting room and made two cups of tea. “alright, can we talk about what happened now?”
“tell me about your business first. what do you want from me?”
li zijun took out a red bomb from her bag and said, ” Benjamin’s wedding is scheduled for next Wednesday. This is the invitation for you.
“So fast?” link blurted out.
Li Ziqi nodded,’after all, the commander has returned this time around. We should take this opportunity to settle the matter. Recently, the machinery faith and the wasteland gang have been getting restless. Who knows when the commander will have another mission?”
“You’re right,” link agreed.
“Alright, now you can tell me why you’re looking for me. Why are you being so mysterious?”
Link put the invitation away and leaned forward. His expression was serious as he said,”Do you know how to break through the shackles of your body and advance to the next stage?”
