Those who reincarnate must die.

"This is it!" Feng Xi spotted Zhang Lang at a glance and said with a smile.

"I've found you, General Yuan's former subordinate! Come with me, I need to recommend you to the Marshal to replace the fallen Captain Liu!"

Captain? I don't know how high this rank is, but it's definitely much better than a common soldier. Zhang Lang's killing of those bugs was definitely worth it; he got promoted so quickly!

Hearing this, the newcomers were a little confused, but the veterans felt a sense of crisis!

If this guy of unknown origin gains a high position in the mission world and then plots something sinister...

But unexpectedly, Zhang Lang stood up from the corner and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Feng Xi:

"I am grateful for the general's kindness! However, I only have brute strength and am not fit to be an officer."

As he spoke, he glanced at the tense-looking reincarnators:

"However, I implore you to transfer to another team!"

"Oh?!" Feng Xi was taken aback, only then noticing the tense atmosphere in the room, and immediately frowned:

"What? With a formidable enemy at hand, are comrades still fighting amongst themselves?"

The veterans' expressions changed upon hearing this, and they hurriedly put away their weapons, only to hear Zhang Lang say:

"No, these are all General Yuan's former subordinates. It's just that I bear some responsibility for General Yuan's death in battle. They were loyal to the general and have some grievances against me... I have no face to face these comrades, so I transferred away to a quieter place..."

"Then how about this..." Feng Xi nodded:

"You will be transferred to my command, accompanying me to patrol the city walls and charge into battle! Your salary will be the same as that of a centurion!"

Zhang Lang readily accepted the order: "Thank you for your promotion, General!" He then jumped off the bed, walked through the crowd, and went to Feng Xi's side. Feng Xi turned to look at the bewildered reincarnators in the room: "Sacrifice is inevitable on the battlefield. Dying in battle is the best end for a general. I hope you won't blame General Yuan's death on just one person; try to let it go as soon as possible!"

After saying that, Feng Xi left with Zhang Lang, leaving a room full of reincarnators staring at each other in disbelief.

In any case, judging from the situation just now, this newcomer codenamed Hunter really doesn't intend to be their enemy!

"Maybe we shouldn't have let things get so tense with him..."

The thin Liu Mofei was somewhat apprehensive:

"Look at him now, he's gained the general's favor. What if he causes us trouble? Who could stand it..."

Is this his second time participating in a mission? He's not much better than the newbies, and he seems a bit timid.

"It was just a lucky break!" Ye Peng retorted indignantly. "So what if I got lucky and saved a general!"

"This isn't luck! It's very likely a way out left for us by the altar!" Fang Tianhua said solemnly.

"This female general seems to be of high status. Why did she encounter danger so close to us? This is our opportunity. If we seize it and rescue her, we can reap the rewards! Actually, you can think of the altar's mission as a game. There's always a solution to a game; it's just a matter of whether you can find it! Clearly, that hunter has already found the strategy for this game!"

"A game walkthrough...?" Le Xinyi frowned, looking in the direction Zhang Lang had left, lost in thought...

Meanwhile, Zhang Lang and Feng Xi entered the fortress and met the fortress's marshal, Meng Yuan!

This was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a dignified air. He wasn't very tall, but he was quite stocky. His face was angular and defined, with deep-set features. He had a full beard, and his eyes were bright and piercing. He looked like a seasoned general who had seen many battles!

Feng Xi, acting as an intermediary, reported Zhang Lang's heroic deeds on the city wall to Commander Meng. The commander praised him repeatedly, looking at Zhang Lang:

"How come I've never heard of Yuan Pingbei having such a fierce general under his command before?"

Zhang Lang cupped his hands and said, "General Feng is too kind..."

"Xiao Xi is great in every way, except her biggest flaw is that she's too honest!"

Commander Meng laughed heartily:

"I believe everything she says! But I still want to see just how capable this warrior, whom she praises so highly, really is! Karlhan!"

"Here!" A very strong and burly man stepped forward with a loud and clear reply.

This guy was a head taller than Zhang Lang, almost the same height as basketball center Liu Xingwei. Unlike basketball players who are tall and slender, this guy was really big and strong, with muscles bulging like gold lines. Judging by his physique, he probably weighed more than 500 pounds!

Moreover, their facial features are slightly different from other indigenous peoples, being more deep-set, with a bronze complexion. Their names also have a different style, suggesting they are a minority group in this world.

"Kalhan is a giant of the human race who grew up at the foot of the Great Snow Mountain. He is naturally tall and incredibly strong. He once tore apart an insect monster with his bare hands on the city wall. He is my most powerful general!"

Commander Meng looked at Zhang Lang and smiled slightly:

"I heard from Feng Xi that you once fought insects bare-handed. Today, let's have a sparring match between you and Karlhan!"

Zhang Lang knew that this was a test of his abilities.

At a command, Karlhan, who had already taken his stance, suddenly charged forward!

Faced with a formidable foe, Zhang Lang remained calm and simply raised one hand and grabbed the giant's wrist with a snap!

Karlhan tried to break free, but found that his opponent was much stronger than him, and as Zhang Lang increased his strength, his wrist bones made a cracking sound!

In excruciating pain, the giant could only use his other hand to grab Zhang Lang's wrist, trying to make him let go, but Zhang Lang's wrist seemed to be made of steel and iron, and he could not budge it!

As Zhang Lang increased his strength, the giant, who was originally taller than him, slowly knelt on the ground. His thick arms were twisted behind his back, his face was red, and he was sweating profusely, completely subdued...

Is that all?!

Commander Meng was also astonished and his eyes widened. He had thought it would be a close contest, but he did not expect that the outcome would be decided so easily. It was a one-sided crushing victory!

"stop!"

Seeing that Karlhan's wrist was about to break, Commander Meng hurriedly shouted to stop. Zhang Lang released his grip, and Karlhan rolled over and stood up, rubbing his wrist which was still aching from being squeezed. He looked at Zhang Lang with a face full of fear, and then bowed.

"Your strength is truly divine; I humbly admit defeat!"

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Commander Meng clapped his hands and said "good" three times. Feng Xi, who was standing next to him, looked proud, as if he were praising her!

"Your name is... Hunter... right?"

Because of the altar's intervention, the pseudonym that Zhang Lang chose himself, which is completely unlike a human name, will be easily accepted by the indigenous residents.

"With a warrior like you at Sunset Fortress, how could we possibly withstand the insect attack!"

Commander Meng, beaming with pride, declared: "I bestow upon you the salary of a thousand households, appoint you as acting general, and order you to lead two thousand infantrymen to patrol the western city wall and repel the insect monsters that attempt to scale it!"

Upon hearing that the marshal had bestowed an official title upon Zhang Lang, Feng Xi objected. This way, although Zhang Lang would not be officially appointed as a general by the imperial court, his wartime rank would be the same as hers.

"Marshal, I spotted him first!" Feng Xi protested. "You promised me you'd let him follow me!"

"Hey..." Commander Meng laughed, "Such a talented person, is it not a waste to only serve as your bodyguard?"

Zhang Lang replied, "Thank you, Marshal. I am just a country bumpkin. I only know how to kill enemies, not how to command troops. Leading an army would only make things worse. I would rather serve under General Feng and kill a few more insects..."

Upon hearing this, Commander Meng nodded and said, "Since you insist, fine... Xiao Xi, he's in your care. Go and help him choose a suitable set of equipment."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xi was overjoyed: "Feng Xi obeys!" Then she pulled Zhang Lang toward the armory.
