Swallowing the Stars: Eternal Glory

Chapter 34 Military Support

Upon receiving the invitation from the Lu family, especially after the old man revealed that the mentalist who killed the Silver Moon King the day before was none other than Lu Jin, Li Dawei acted swiftly.

At 2 p.m., a dark blue flying saucer-shaped fighter jet slowly landed outside the Lu family manor.

When Lu Jin learned that Li Dawei had arrived, he came to the main house's reception room and saw that, in addition to the old man, there were three other middle-aged men.

The man was lean and wiry with a hooked nose. He was dressed in black and exuded a powerful aura.

The other man already had a few gray hairs at his temples, and his eyes were sharp like a leopard's, exuding an imposing aura without being angry.

The last person wore glasses and looked much more approachable than the other two.

Lu Jin didn't recognize the middle-aged man with glasses, but he knew the other two.

The man in black with a hooked nose is Zhu Xi, a military councilor stationed in Jiangnan Base City. The sharp-eyed middle-aged man is Li Dawei, the commander of the Southeast Military Region.

Both are frequent guests on television news and have high profiles.

Upon Lu Jin's arrival, the three immediately turned their attention to him, their eyes filled with curiosity.

According to their intelligence, Lu Jin is far too young.

"Come here, Xiao Jin, let me introduce you. This is Councilor Zhu Xi, this is Chief Li Dawei of the Southeast Military Region, and this is Deputy Chief Wang Luohan of the Southeast Military Region."

The old man, Lu Yi, introduced the three of them to Lu Jin.

After greeting everyone, Lu Jin sat down next to the old man.

Li Dawei stood up and bowed to Lu Jin, saying, "Councilor Lu, on behalf of the military, I thank you for your contributions during the beast tide the other day, and also for slaying the Silver Moon King, eliminating a major enemy for the Northeast Base City."

After a pause, Li Dawei took out a bank card from his pocket and said, "The military has sold Councilor Lu's spoils during the beast tide, as well as the corpse of the Silver Moon King, to the HR Alliance. All the funds are in this anonymous bank card."

Of course, the battlefield is chaotic due to the beast tide, and it's inevitable that some monster materials cannot be collected. Please understand.

Although Lu Jin only displayed the level of Invincible War God on the Beast Tide battlefield, he did not give them the unique feeling of a planetary-level powerhouse with fire, darkness, or frost.

But since Lu Jin can kill a King-level monster, regardless of whether his level has reached the Planetary level, he should be addressed as a councilor.

“Commander Li, I asked my grandfather to invite the military not for the sake of the spoils of war, but for other important matters to discuss. This small amount of money is for the military.”

Lu Jin shook his head and said.

It's just currency on Earth, not currency in the universe, so Lu Jin no longer finds it appealing.

The money he received from selling these monster materials was less than a single planetary-level life essence in his eyes.

"There are other important matters, and the military will not allow any powerful individuals who have helped the military to suffer losses."

Li Dawei was very determined and stepped forward to place the bank card on the side table to Lu Jin's left.

"Councilor Lu, what brings you here?"

At this moment, Zhu Xi asked.

Lu Jin said, "I've heard that all five great nations possess detection equipment derived from ancient civilization ruins, capable of locating king-level monsters. Presumably, the military must have intelligence on all king-level monsters on the Chinese mainland."

"I plan to eradicate all king-level monsters on the land of China, and even globally, and I need intelligence support from the military."

"A global king-level monster?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Xi and the other two exclaimed in disbelief.

Zhu Xi said in a deep voice, "Councilor Lu, a King-level monster is not just a simple wild animal. This matter has far-reaching consequences and requires careful consideration."

Furthermore, the strength of the Silver Moon King of Changbai Mountain is only considered average among global King-level monsters.

Zhu Xi's meaning was clear: taking down a few king-level monsters was fine, but if they were to hunt them on a large scale, the king-level monsters worldwide would definitely not sit idly by. Moreover, on Earth, a large portion of the king-level monsters were stronger than the Silver Moon King.

Being able to kill the Silver Moon King does not mean that you can kill other king-level monsters that are of higher level and stronger.

Lu Jin didn't bother to explain, and said directly, "Councilor Zhu, I am very clear about my own strength, and I also know that there are many King-level monsters in the world, and some of them are even higher than the third level of planets."

I'm still young, I have a long life ahead of me, and I'm not thinking of throwing my life away. Besides, all your military needs to do is provide me with intelligence support.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xi fell into deep thought.

Indeed, young people are often proud and arrogant, and may act impulsively.

Even if someone is impulsive, it's not enough to knowingly go down a dead end and still insist on doing it.

After a moment, Zhu Xi said, "Councilor Lu, the large-scale hunting of King-level monsters involves a great deal of issues, and the military needs to discuss it with its senior officials before giving you a reply."

"Roughly how long will it take?"

"Within today."

"Alright, I'll wait for news from the military."

Lu Jin nodded.

Afterwards, Zhu Xi and the other two did not linger and left immediately.

In the evening, Zhu Xi came to the Lu family's house again.

Accompanying them were military councilors Tuoba and Deng.

Looking at Zhu Xi and his two companions, who were dressed in combat uniforms, carrying weapons, and fully armed, Lu Jin greeted them and said, "It seems the military is willing to support me?"

Zhu Xi nodded and said, "After internal discussions, the military has decided to support Councilor Lu's actions."

However, the first target is limited to the White Tiger King of the Kunlun Mountains.

The White Tiger King of the Kunlun Mountains is a planetary-level third-tier king-class monster. It is not only the strongest king-class monster on the land of China, but also one of the top king-class monsters on land around the world.

There was a reason why the military chose the White Tiger King.

If Lu Jin can defeat the White Tiger King and prove his strength, the military will naturally give him their full support.

After all, Lu Jin is a mentalist. If he can even kill the White Tiger King, a third-level planetary monster, then ordinary king-level monsters would definitely not be able to survive a single move in his hands.

At that time, intelligent fighter jets will be used to travel to various places and carry out precise decapitation tactics against the king-level monsters entrenched in various places.

Before the other King-level monsters around the world can react, sweeping away all the King-level monsters within China will definitely not be a problem.

If Lu Jin is no match for the White Tiger King, then the role of the three of them is to save the day.

Although Lu Jin was a bit reckless at that time, given the talent and strength he displayed, the military would have to pay for his impulsiveness once.

Since all three of them and Lu Jin were wearing the Black God Set, together they could probably defeat a single White Tiger King.

With this past friendship established, the young man would certainly not be able to refuse the military's invitation to defend against the beast tide in the future.

Furthermore, the Kunlun Mountains are far from the heart of China, and even the nearest northwestern base city is quite far away.

Even if the operation fails and angers the White Tiger King, there is no need to worry about the major base cities during the beast tide.

There's no loss either way, and failure won't have much of an impact, so the military naturally won't refuse.
