Chapter 963 - Blood God Battalion
Everyone sighed in relief when the attacks from the abyssal creatures suddenly subsided. However, the combat strength displayed by the grey-haired girl still struck fear in some of their hearts.
With a flash of silver light, the Blood God was already in front of Tang Wulin. Contrary to Tang Wulin’s expectations, the voice that came from under the mask was that of a woman. Cold and crisp, her voice made the listener feel as if they were eating iced watermelon in winter.
“Come with me,” she ordered, roughly grabbing Tang Wulin’s pauldron. She moved swiftly, taking them out of the cave.
Long Yuxue and Jiang Wuyue looked on as the duo left. They could not help but exchange looks. They did not know what they were supposed to say. The scene just now had surpassed their knowledge of abyssal creatures.
The close-range and long-range attackers went back to their formations to prepare for the coming of another abyssal tide at any time. Tang Wulin, on the other hand, was being led by the Blood God. They walked out of the abyssal cavern and flew straight for the army’s headquarters.
After they exited the cavern, the Blood God spoke, “Follow me on your own.” She let go of Tang Wulin and flew in front of him.
Tang Wulin hastily stabilized his body and steadied his breathing. He flapped his pair of dragon wings and followed her.
The Blood God seemed to have arrived behind the command post in a flash. She dropped toward an inconspicuous yard. The yard did not look too different from the camp.
As their feet touched the ground, she started retracting her battle armor which turned into beams of silver light and melted into her body.
Tang Wulin landed behind her and drew his Dragon Moon battle armor back as well.
Because he was behind her, Tang Wulin could only see the Blood God’s back. She wore a clean, white military uniform and a star hung upon her shoulders. To Tang Wulin’s surprise, she was a major general. Her silvery-white hair was short which added to her valiant and heroic bearing. She stood with her back straight, supported by her slender waistline.
The feeling of rolling around with her before this resurfaced in his mind. That was right! He felt that her waist was very slim. He did not expect that the Blood God was truly a female. She was a Blood Goddess!
This Blood Goddess’s figure was truly astonishing. Her waistline was especially slim, but her buttocks were the most thick-fleshed among all the beautiful ladies whom he had seen before. Her extremely rounded bubble butt and her waistline formed a wondrous arc. Her hips were slightly thick, but her legs were long. All these were wrapped within the military uniform, which appealed greatly to male hormones.
“Follow me.” The Blood Goddess turned to glance at Tang Wulin, which gave him a glimpse of her face.
Her icy blue eyes and silver hair truly formed a peculiar combination. Her hair was not like Gu Yuena’s. Gu Yuena’s hair had a crystalline quality to it while hers was whiter, though it still appeared silky and smooth.
She was not exceptionally beautiful. At least, she was lacking in this respect compared to Gu Yuena, but she was filled with heroic spirit. Maybe this was a unique trait of a soldier. Tang Wulin had seen this in Long Yuxue, and now he saw it again in her.
Tang Wulin followed the Blood Goddess into the building. The temperature of their surroundings rose and immediately made him feel relaxed. He entered the narrow and cramped barracks. There was an elevator straight ahead.
A beam of light scanned them, and the Blood God Bracelet on the Blood Goddess’s arm shone as their lights met. With a wave of her arm, a halo was unleashed from her bracelet, which clearly had a different rank from Tang Wulin’s, and the light enveloped his body. She then walked toward the elevator.
The elevator doors slid open and Tang Wulin hastily followed her into it.
There were no buttons inside the elevator, but after the doors slid shut, it immediately moved. It felt as if it was going down.
After dozens of seconds, the elevator doors reopened. The Blood Goddess, who looked to be in her thirties, walked out of the car and brought him into a round lobby.
The lobby was surrounded by three rows of screens showing the situation of every cavern. They must have been surveillance footage of the general conditions of the caverns.
“Welcome to the Blood God Battalion. You may call me Blood Eight, because I’m ranked eighth among the Nine Blood Gods. The ranking is only based on strength and not age,” the Blood Goddess’s said with her ice-cold voice.
“Good day, senior officer.” It was only now that Tang Wulin had the opportunity to salute her. With great respect, he continued, “Thank you for saving my life.”
Blood Eight waved her hand in dismissal and pressed the Blood God Bracelet on her wrist.
The screens around them parted and revealed hidden doors. Four of the doors opened and a person walked out from each one.
“What’s the matter, Little Eight?” came a sluggish voice. It was a man who looked to be about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old. His hands were crossed behind his head, and he had a lazy expression on his face. However, a golden major general’s star glittered on his shoulder.
Blood Eight’s face darkened. “Blood Seven, don’t make me repeat myself. Call me Blood Eight, not Little Eight.”
Blood Seven chuckled. “Alright, alright! We’re all on the same team. Don’t be too sensitive about such things.”
‘Humph!” Blood Eight snorted.
The other three walked toward them as well. Among them, there was a woman who looked to be in her fifties. She said wearily, “Blood Seven, you and that mouth of yours! One day, if Blood Eight surpasses you, we’ll see if you can still act like this.”
Blood Seven laughed. “Can’t you see that that’s precisely my motivation for cultivating harder? Sister Three, if such a day truly comes, you must protect me!”
Blood Three shook her head helplessly, but her gaze fell on Tang Wulin. “Blood Eight, you’ve brought someone new here. Does he have enough potential?”
Blood Eight nodded. “He’s somewhat interesting. Let’s take a look at the recording first. It happened in cave number six.” As she spoke, she walked to a screen and started pushing some buttons.
Tang Wulin saluted the newcomers, “Good day, senior officers.”
Blood three smiled. “Relax. The Blood God Battalion is different from the others. We don’t have that many rules here. I’ll introduce us. I’m Blood Three. This is Blood Five, Blood Six, and Blood Seven. You’ve met Blood Eight. Usually, there’s only nine of us in Blood God Battalion. Welcome.”
Blood Five and Blood Six were males. Blood Five was big and tall with tanned skin. He looked like a black iron tower as he stood there, lofty as a mountain. Blood Six was thin and small. He was also the most average-looking among all of them. He looked like he would not even hurt a fly. His presence could barely be felt. It was as if he did not exist. He also wore a genial smile on his face. However, Tang Wulin noticed that his arms were exceptionally slender. Although he was thin and small, there was a certain edge to him.
He must have been terrifyingly fast and an agility system battle soul master.
Blood God Battalion?
Tang Wulin had not heard much about the Blood God Battalion. Long Yuxue, too, had not spoken much about it. Clearly, this place was a well-kept secret in the Blood God Army. However, there was no doubt that they were the true core of the Blood God Army’s combat strength.
Blood Seven came to Tang Wulin’s side and smiled. “Little brother, where are you from? I see you’re a second lieutenant. You’ve been here long?”
Tang Wulin replied, “Senior officer, I joined not long ago. I came with Tang Sect’s recommendations.”
“A recruit from the Tang Sect?” Blood Seven’s gaze flickered, but his gaze was directed at Blood Six. “It’s someone from your Tang Sect.”
Blood Six immediately displayed a faint smile on his face. “Welcome, little brother. Tang Sect, eh? Who recommended you?”
Tang Wulin replied, “His Eminence the Amorous Douluo.”
When he heard the words Amorous Douluo, Blood Six’s expression changed slightly. He seemed perturbed.
“Everyone, come and see this.” At that moment, Blood Eight’s voice attracted everyone’s attention.
They all walked up to the screen. On the screen, a replay of the battle which Tang Wulin and the others had fought in was displayed.
The replay started from when Tang Wulin had not joined the fray in the cavern. He was standing beside Jiang Wuyue at the rear. Blood Eight tapped on the screen on a figure who was wearing battle armor. Everyone understood that that was Tang Wulin.
Naturally, the scenes of the resulting fight played on the screen. When the replay had just begun, everyone still acted naturally.
