Disastrous Necromancer

Chapter 130 - Shenxia's Star Title? There's No Need, I Have A Better One

Chapter 130

Everyone pricked up their ears. It’s time for the harvest.

Although rewards will be distributed based on contribution — Lin Moyu definitely stands out in this regard — but their harvest still shouldn’t be disappointing.

Amidst everyone’s anticipation, commander Ni Xiong’s voice sounded.

“In this battle, a total of 10,000 Abyssal Hounds and 100 Abyssal Dog Demons were killed. This is equivalent to 20,000 military merit.”

“There is also 3,000 military merit for defending the fortress.”

“And since no one has abandoned their post without permission, there is additional 2,000 military merit.”

“That comes up to a total of 25,000 military merit.”

“We have here a total of 1,052 class users. Except for Lin Moyu and Mo Yun, each one of you has earned 20 military merit.”

“Mo Yun earned 500 military merit and Lin Moyu earned 3,500 military merit.”

Everyone showed understanding looks.

Although 20 military merit may not seem like a lot, but it’s actually a significant amount.

In order to gain 20 military merit, you have to kill 20 Abyssal Hounds.

Take a party of five as an example, they would have to kill 100 Abyssal Hounds in order for every person to receive 20 military merit.

But here, after only a few minutes of defending the fortress, they were able to earn 20 military merit. This is already considered quite good.

Mo Yun received 500 military merit. No one had any objections. After all, she killed two Abyssal Dog Demons and a bunch of Abyssal Hounds by herself.

As for Lin Moyu, at least 80% of the Abyssal Hounds died at his hands. And of the 100 Abyssal Dog Demons, Mo Yun killed two, while Lin Moyu killed the rest.

Furthermore, if it weren’t for his curse at the beginning of the battle, things wouldn’t have gone as smoothly.

Lin Moyu obtained 3,500 military merit by himself, and no one found it unreasonable.

Even Mo Yun had no objections.

Only Zhou Lesheng was unhappy.

“What, I only go 20 military merit, while he got 3,500 military merit?”

“Why did I only get a small fraction of what he got?”

“I am a Sentinel, a legendary class user, so why can’t I measure up to him?”

However, he doesn’t dare say it out loud. He doesn’t want to become a pariah.

In the army, orders are paramount, and the commander’s words are absolute.

No one has the right to refute.

The military badges began to shine as military merit flooded in, and the military rank of many people rose.

Some people reached the brink of promotion. With some more military merit, they can be promoted to a higher military rank.

Ning Yiyi jumped up with joy. She was promoted to two-star private.

She didn’t do anything, yet received 20 military merit. She was very satisfied.

Lin Moyu’s military badge shone especially brightly, several times brighter than that of the others.

Stars appeared on his military badge one after another — sixth star, seventh star, eighth star… all the way to the tenth star, and then the badge suddenly changed.

It transformed from a white private badge to a silver lieutenant badge.

Lieutenant is considered rank 1 officer. Whenever ordinary privates meet him on the battlefield, regardless of their level, they will have to call him sir.

Even if they have reached level 50, even if they have undergone the second awakening, so long as their military rank doesn’t exceed Lin Moyu’s, they will still have to respectfully call Lin Moyu sir.

This is a military rule that has to be followed on the battlefield.

After the badge turned silver, it fell dormant. There are no stars on its surface.

Of the 3,500 military merit he received, 500 raised Lin Moyu’s military rank to ten-star private.

After adding the remaining 3,000 military merit, he changed from ten-star private to lieutenant.

As for the lieutenant rank, every additional star requires 10,000 military merit.

This constitutes a hundredfold increase.

It is quite difficult for a lieutenant to raise their military rank. Simply killing Abyssal Hounds won’t cut it.

In order to achieve great military merit, you must go deep into the Dimensional Battlefield, or even enter the Abyss, and hunt true Abyssal Demons.

Ning Yiyi looked at the military badge on Lin Moyu’s breast, “Wow, you’ve become a lieutenant. Hello, sir!”

She playfully saluted Lin Moyu.

Ning Yiyi said happily, “You may be the youngest lieutenant in history.”

Lin Moyu is only 18 years old.

He just recently went through the great examination.

At this juncture, class users will either enter academies or look for employment outside.

To reach level 20-plus, come to the Dimensional Battlefield, and kill so many abyssal demonic creatures, only he is capable of such feats.

Lieutenant at such a tender age, Lin Moyu is truly one of a kind.

Many people were very happy about their promotion.

When the light extinguished, commander Ni Xiong continued, “Lin Moyu, 18 years old. As the youngest lieutenant in our empire’s history, you are specially awarded the Shenxia’s Star title.”

As his words fell, Lin Moyu’s military badge burst out with brilliant light once again, completely enveloping him.

[Obtained title: Shenxia’s Star]

[Shenxia’s Star: all attributes +300, reduces the consumption of skills by 20%, reduces damage received by 10%.]

Lin Moyu scanned the title’s properties and found that it’s much worse than his Dragonkind Slayer title.

Besides, the two titles can’t coexist. He has to choose one of them to use.

Needless to say, he chose the Dragonkind Slayer title.

Ni Xiong revealed a strange look, “You already have a title?”

His words caught everyone’s attention.

No one imagined that Lin Moyu already had a title.

Title isn’t something that can be easily obtainable, as it requires various demanding conditions to be met.

And only a single person can have a given title at the same time.

Lin Moyu doesn’t know who previously owned the Shenxia’s Star title.

But since he became the youngest lieutenant in Shenxia Empire, the title fell into his hands.

Lin Moyu nodded and said, “Yes, I have a title.”

Ni Xiong asked, “Where did it come from?”

“The Dragonkind Frontline Outpost dungeon, hell rank difficulty.” Lin Mo didn’t conceal it.

There’s no need to hide it. In any case, others can’t take it away.

Murmur!

Lin Moyu’s words caused a commotion.

Everyone present was stupefied, unable to believe their ears.

Even Mo Yun, who has always been proud, looked at Lin Moyu with disbelief at this moment.

She also tried going solo before, but ended up running with her tail between her legs.

“So the legend is true. The hell rank outpost dungeon really has a title.”

“He actually soloed the hell rank outpost dungeon, by god!”

“How is this possible? Is this really something that humans can do?”

“I thought that title was merely a lie, but it turned out to be true.”

“Perhaps he’s the only one capable of obtaining it. After all, who else has this many amazing summons?”

The discussions got louder and louder.

Ni Xiong barked, “Silence.”

Everyone shut up at once.

The legion has yet to disband, so Ni Xiong is still in command.

Following a flash of light, Lin Moyu was teleported to Ni Xiong’s side, “Can you tell me the title’s effects and the way it was obtained? We need to record this information in the empire’s database.”

At this point, he was no longer ordering, but asking.

The title is Lin Moyu’s private information, which he can’t access.

However, the empire’s database needs this information.

As such, he can only ask Lin Moyu about it.

Lin Moyu didn’t conceal anything.

“I obtained it after soloing the hell rank Dragonkind Frontline Outpost. Its effects are as follows: it raises all attributes by 500 points and reduces the consumption of all skills by 50%.”

Ni Xiong’s gaze filled with the hue of praise, “That’s a very good title, especially the 50% reduction in all skills’ consumption. It is quite fantastic for a Mage.”

“You’re pretty good. In exchange, I give you special permission to use the military facilities in the fortress.”

Lin Moyu was startled.

In the fortress, some facilities are designated as military facilities, and ordinary people aren’t qualified to access them.

In order to enter these facilities, you need military merit, to be specific, you must at least reach the military rank of three-star lieutenant.

At this moment, Lin Moyu isn’t even a one-star lieutenant. He shouldn’t be qualified.

Ni Xiong unexpectedly gave him an exemption.

Lin Moyu only now noticed the badge on Ni Xiong’s breast.

It’s a purple. He’s actually a general.

The three stars on the badge are really eye-catching

Ni Xiong said, “You can use military facilities, but that requires military merit. You don’t have much military merit. You’ll have to save some up.”

Lin Moyu made a sound of assent, “Thank you, senior.”

After Lin Moyu went back down, Ni Xiong finally issued the last command, “The battle is over, the legion is disbanded.”

The curtain was drawn on the sudden battle.

Everyone can now do their own thing again.

Although the battle lasted less than an hour, but it was still an extraordinary experience.

Lin Moyu’s powerful skills broadened their horizons.

Especially after learning that Lin Moyu can solo the hell rank outpost dungeon, they entered a stupor.

At this moment, the teleportation formation lit up, and teams of people on mounts teleported back.

They are high-level class users.

They are military personnel dressed in a uniform, exuding an imposing momentum.

After coming out of the teleportation formation, they quickly left, not saying a word to the class users present, not even giving them a glance.

Lin Moyu recognized one of them. He is the soldier guarding the gate who gave Lin Moyu a kind warning.

He wasn’t present during the battle just now.

In fact, except for Ni Xiong, no high-level class users were present.

Who knows where they went.

At this time, many people’s communicators rang.

During the battle, the communicators were out of service. Now communication has been restored.

As soon as the communicators were connected, they transmitted various voices.

“Did you know? The abyssal demonic creatures attacked a number of countries.”

“The Seventh Fortress has been attacked by high-level demonic creatures. The fighting there is said to be quite fierce.”

“How’s the First Fortress faring? Since it’s the farthest from the Abyss, it must be fairly safe, right?”

Shi Xing’an walked up to Lin Moyu, a solemn expression on his face, “The Abyss attacked other places besides the First Fortress.”
