Bleach Stronger by AFK Chapter 429: Protective stations and military ranks
The bald man stepped forward and knocked a few times. The top of the iron door suddenly slid open with a sneer, revealing a pair of eyes looking at everyone.
"Brother Zhang, Sister Xiaojin, why are you back so soon? There is one more person, who is that guy?" The person behind the door asked in a deep voice.
"He is a guest we met on the road. He is a knight. He saved our lives when we attacked the warehouse. Open the door quickly." The bald man urged.
"Knight?"
Several surprised whispers sounded from behind the door.
After a while, the iron door slowly opened. Behind the door were several teenagers of seventeen or eighteen years old, looking at Lin Lichuan curiously.
"Is Mr. Zuo back?" Zhang Chengjie asked casually.
One of the teenagers shook his head when he heard this and said: "Not yet, they are going to lead the Star Clan patrol to the other side of Wu Gang City. It will take a lot of time to go back and forth, and they will not be able to come back until night at the earliest. ”
Zhang Chengjie nodded, turned around and said, "Li Chuan, please rest in the protective shelter first. When Mr. Zuo comes back, I will take you to see him immediately."
"Okay, I'm sorry to bother you." Lin Lichuan nodded.
"Then follow me here." Fang Jin took the lead and walked forward.
Behind the door is also a narrow corridor, and across the corridor is a bright square.
The square is not big, with an area almost equivalent to two standard basketball courts. At this time, many people were chatting and exercising in the square, and there were also children laughing and running. It was really lively.
"Xiaojin."
"Sister Jin!"
"Fang Jin!"
People kept greeting Fang Jin warmly along the way, and glanced curiously at the unfamiliar face of Lin Lichuan. However, Fang Jin just smiled in response to the greeting and had no intention of introducing Lin Lichuan.
It wasn’t until we crossed the square and entered the corridor that the noise subsided a lot
"You are quite popular." Lin Lichuan said with a slight smile.
"Not just me, but all the combatants who work hard for the survival of the protection center are respected and loved by everyone." Fang Jin pursed his lips, then stopped and pointed to a room next to the corridor. , "This is a public bathroom exclusively for combatants. There should be prepared clothes in it. After you take a shower, you can choose something suitable and change into it. Then I will take you to the cafeteria to eat."
Lin Lichuan nodded without being polite, opened the door and walked in.
The bathroom is quite clean, and as Fang Jin said, there are four sets of clothes in the cabinet on the wall, ranging in size from small to large, but he can't use them. Instead, there are shaving supplies in the corner of the cabinet. It was somewhat useful, just in time to completely shave off the beard that had been growing for half a year.
After taking a long-awaited hot bath, Lin Lichuan took out the clothes from his backpack and put on some clothes. Lin Lichuan opened the door and walked out, only to find Fang Jin waiting in the corridor.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Fang Jin looked up and couldn't help but be startled.
"What's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing." Fang Jin quickly waved his hand, his cheeks were a little red, and he lowered his head and muttered, "I didn't expect that there would be such a big difference between shaving and changing clothes."
As if to ease the embarrassment, she quickly raised her head and said, "I'll take you to the cafeteria."
After saying that, he immediately walked forward and led the way.
It was past meal time at this time, and there were not many people in the cafeteria. Fang Jin helped get two meals and found a seat at random to sit down.
Unlike ordinary girls who eat slowly and carefully, Fang Jin eats very quickly and swallows in large gulps without appearing rude. Instead, she gives people a cute feeling like a hamster eating, which makes people want to laugh.
Noticing the smile in Lin Lichuan's eyes, Fang Jin blushed and defended sheepishly: "We combatants are usually very busy. In addition to going on missions, we also have to practice, so we have to speed up when eating. ”
Lin Lichuan smiled, without explaining, and changed the subject: "I heard you mention the Star Clan's battle fortress before, what is it?"
When it came to business, Fang Jin immediately straightened up his expression and said in a serious voice: "The combat fortress is a combat stronghold set up by the Star Clan against the national first-level invasion target. It is equivalent to a command branch. The headquarters is Yanglu City of the Star Clan. ."
Lin Lichuan thought of the City of Steel falling from the sky that he saw that night half a year ago, and nodded subconsciously.
"Although it is only at the level of a branch, the combat power of each combat fortress is very powerful. In addition to a large number of alien beasts and star beasts, there are also at least three digits of Star Clan warriors sitting in command, and their command The lowest official rank is a Star Clan warrior at the level of Star Banner Officer."
At least three digits of StarClan warriors?
In other words, at least a hundred knights!
In the eastern part of the mainland, I am afraid that only the three major powers, Shiwu Empire, Renlan Kingdom and Wan'an Alliance, can muster more than a hundred knights.
And this is just the power of a combat fortress. What kind of strength should Yanglu City, which is the core of Star Clan's invasion, have?
No wonder the countries in the eastern part of the continent are retreating steadily under the attack of the Star Clan. The power gap between the two sides is not generally large.
"What is the Star Flag Officer?" After coming back to his senses, Lin Lichuan continued to ask.
"Star Flag Officer is a military rank for Star Clan warriors." Fang Jin patiently explained, "The military ranks of Star Clan are very simple. The lowest level is sergeant, and the higher level is sergeant major, and then the star clan. Flag officer and commander, the person in charge of the battle fortress is usually the Star Clan warrior of the next two ranks."
"Although Star Flag Officer is only the third-level military rank, the Star Clan warriors who can serve as Star Flag Officer are at least seven-star level. When converted to the biological energy level of our human race, it is about level 31, which is the Knight of the Sun. ."
Speaking of this, Fang Jin's eyebrows flashed with solemnity, and his tone became a little lower.
“The Star Tribe Battle Fortress near Wu Gang City~IndoMTL.com~The person in charge is a 31st-level Star Flag Officer. He was the one who directly entered the capital of the Cangfeng Free Federation half a year ago and will serve as the National Security Advisor. The Knights of the Shining Moon, together with the entire Federal House of Representatives and the military headquarters, were massacred. As a result, when faced with the Star Clan attack later, the federal army, which had lost its overall command, suffered a complete defeat and had no choice but to go underground and begin guerrilla warfare."
Hearing this, Lin Lichuan's eyes flashed and asked: "So, there are extraordinary people from the army in the protective shelter?"
Fang Jin nodded and said, "That's Mr. Zuo. He is one of the few remaining generals in the Federation."
Lin Lichuan was overjoyed when he heard this. Since he was an extraordinary person with a military background, he probably had a map in his hand. At the very least, he should also have some knowledge of the geographical distribution of the eastern part of the mainland. At least he would not gain anything from this trip.
While talking and eating, the meal took nearly half an hour to finish. Lin Lichuan also got a lot of information about Star Clan from Fang Jin.
Before leaving the cafeteria, Fang Jin suddenly had a look on his face. He took off the communicator from his waist, put it to his ear and chatted for a few words. After putting it down, he said to Lin Lichuan:
"Mr. Zuo is back."
