Holding the original shares, they fought all the way to the Korean War!

Zhou Tianyang sat down under the big tree.

He relaxed his body, but kept his ears alert to the sounds around him.

This is a habit he developed.

Even in the safest environment, one must remain vigilant.

A few birdsongs occasionally drifted from afar, only to quickly disappear into the night.

A breeze blew from the fields, its cool touch brushing against his cheeks.

Zhou Tianyang looked up at the starry sky above for a while.

Just then.

A familiar notification sound rang in his mind without warning.

【Ding! 】

Zhou Tianyang paused slightly in his breathing.

That was a crisp notification sound.

His attention had been focused on getting there and being on guard, so he hadn't bothered to check the system notifications.

At that moment, the system's voice sounded again.

[The system is now providing a points calculation reminder for the targets killed by the host.]

[Due to the involvement of multiple high-level targets, the settlement process will be broadcast item by item. Please check your messages.]

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tianyang's heart skipped a beat.

He leaned against the tree, his gaze still fixed on the distance.

But all my attention was focused on the interface that was appearing in my mind.

The system's voice paused for a moment, as if it were organizing data.

Then it started ringing again.

[Points settlement begins.]

[Target 1: Lieutenant General Naito Ichiro of the Imperial Japanese Army.]

[Method of elimination: Long-range sniping, headshot, instant death.]

[Based on the Japanese military rank-based point system, the host has killed an Army Lieutenant General.]

[Reward points: 100000 points.]

Ten quarters of a year.

A Japanese lieutenant general, 100,000 points.

The same number as when Kiyoshi Kazuki was assassinated in Taiyuan.

Zhou Tianyang remained silent for a moment, not rushing to read on, but letting the number linger in his mind for a few more seconds.

He then let out a soft breath and continued to wait for the system announcement.

[Target Two: Major General Kazuo Yamada of the Japanese Army.]

[Method of elimination: Long-range sniping, hitting the left chest, instant death.]

[Based on the Japanese military rank-based point system, the host has killed an Army Major General.]

[Reward points: 50000 points.]

Another number.

50,000 points.

Adding the previous 100,000 points, the total is now 150,000 points.

Zhou Tianyang's breathing remained steady, but the corner of his mouth twitched slightly involuntarily.

He silently repeated it in his mind.

150,000 points, plus the 26,000 points he had left.

The total points are now approaching 180,000.

He could calculate the bill without even opening the panel.

[Points for this round of operations have been tallied.]

Total targets eliminated: one lieutenant general and one major general.

[The system hereby awards the host 10000 points.]

Total reward points: 160000 points.

[Please open the attribute panel to view the detailed data for specific values.]

The system's announcement stopped here.

Silence returned to my mind.

Only the occasional sound of wind and insects chirping from the distant fields remained.

Zhou Tianyang sat there, not in a hurry to move.

He paused for a moment, letting the numbers settle in his mind.

160,000 points.

It was 10,000 more than he had expected.

He considered all sorts of possibilities before setting off.

He originally thought that it would be great if he could take down a major general.

Taking down a lieutenant general would be an unexpected bonus.

But I never imagined that I would kill two generals at the same time.

The first figure he saw stepping out of the car through the scope was a major general.

The second is when he holds the rank of lieutenant general.

He knew that firing this shot would yield significant results.

But the number 160,000 still exceeded his estimate.

Zhou Tianyang sat in the darkness for a while.

Then he silently recited a sentence in his mind.

"System, open my properties panel."

The moment the words fell.

The familiar light screen in my mind slowly unfolded.

All the data were clearly arranged in his mind.

[Host: Zhou Tianyang]

[Host's Overall Evaluation:]

Zhou Tianyang's gaze lingered on the points section.

191,477 points.

He added up the remaining points from before with the amount he received this time.

After confirming that there was no mistake in the calculation, he slowly withdrew his gaze.

He leaned against the tree, gazing at the distant fields shrouded in night, and remained silent for a long time.

190,000 points.

That's enough for him to do a lot of things.

That's enough for him to double the equipment of the new Second Regiment.

That's enough for him to exchange for several more batches of physique enhancement liquid and skill inheritance cards.

That should be enough for him to not have to worry about resources for the next few months.

It's even enough for him to consider things he wouldn't have dared to think about before.

For example, forming the artillery battalion of the new Second Regiment.

For example, establish a small logistics reserve base in the base area.

He had thought about these things before.

But every time I get to the point of calculating the integral, I feel like I'm running out of money, so I have to prioritize the most urgent needs.

But now, there are 190,000 points sitting there.

Many things that I never dared to think about before have suddenly become feasible.

Zhou Tianyang looked at the number again, then slowly exhaled.

He did not make any decision immediately.

We're still on the road, still on the outskirts of Shanghai, and haven't really returned to southeastern Shanxi yet.

Now is not the time to plan how to use the points.

The most important thing now is to keep moving and get out of this area around Shanghai as soon as possible.

After returning to Lijia Yu and confirming that everything was normal in the new Second Regiment.

He then sat down and carefully planned how to use the 190,000 points.

Zhou Tianyang turned his gaze away from the panel and looked back at the night sky in the distance.

A light footstep sound came from the side; it was Ma Yong on patrol.

"Commander, you're still awake?"

"Um."

Zhou Tianyang's tone was very calm.

"You continue your patrol, I'll guard this side."

Ma Yong responded and did not disturb him further.

The footsteps gradually faded into the distance.

Zhou Tianyang leaned back against the tree and closed his eyes, but this time he didn't think about points anymore.

The night grew deeper.

The wasteland fell completely silent.

After daybreak, he would lead his team to continue their journey.

There is still a long way to go.

But now he was sitting in the dark.

The tension that had been building up inside me since I left Shanghai finally eased a bit.

190,000 points.

The road ahead for the new Second Regiment will be much easier than before.

Zhou Tianyang's breathing gradually calmed down.

He finally allowed himself a moment to completely relax.

The wind was still blowing in the distant fields.
