After Turning Into A Little Skeleton, I Got Contracted By A Goddess

Chapter 209 Take A Walk In The Base

Take a Walk in the Base

"Alright, let's take a day off tomorrow. After that, we can try to figure out what's going on with you and how much your strength has improved."

Yan Wuyue was also tired. After all, she had stood with full concentration for more than ten hours. Even if she had an extraordinary physique, she was drained out.

"Go take a rest. I'm actually pretty energetic now. After staying in the space of consciousness for this long, I just want to take a walk around the base to clear my mind," Zhou Mingrui said as he looked around.

"Alright, just don't cause any trouble. We are in a military base, not the academy," Yan Wuyue warned him.

Yan Wuyue then took out a watch and handed it to Zhou Mingrui. "This is the watch I asked the military to make for you. It has the same authority as me. You can go to the green areas marked on the map, and you need to apply for permission in the yellow ones. As for the red ones, you are not allowed to enter."

"Alright, I'll be careful. Don't worry," Zhou Mingrui said after he took the watch and put it on.

"I should go then. Remember, contact me immediately, no matter what happens. Don't you ever, ever make any decision without telling me," Yan Wuyue reminded him again with a serious tone.

After all, she was familiar with the military environment. Even if Lieutenant General Yu had high hopes for her now, he hadn't been that powerful after the arrival of a large number of reinforcements.

If he really caused trouble, there would basically be no severe punishment under Lieutenant General Yu's protection.

However, being punished would affect Yan Wuyue's plan.

After making sure Zhou Mingrui understood what she meant, Yan Wuyue turned around and walked back to her dormitory.

Looking at Yan Wuyue's back, Zhou Mingrui didn't find her naggy. In fact, he had even missed this.

After all, he felt like he had spent too much time in that chaotic space, and he was well aware that the military base had very strict rules.

In addition, they were in a tense period where the beast tide could start again at any time. The rules would definitely be stricter, and he would not get himself in any trouble.

After walking out of the area, Zhou Mingrui checked his watch and realized he was actually in a yellow zone.

At the exit, four armed guards were standing guard. When Zhou Mingrui walked out of the exit, they immediately turned around and closed it.

Zhou Mingrui didn't care about this, for he just wanted to relax and think about what would happen next.

The current period was very special for him. According to the ordinary development line, his and Yan Wuyue's strength could be said to be top-notch among their peers.

If his innate skills had not been limited, he could confidently say that he and Yan Wuyue were the best among people of the same age in the country.

However, in the face of the beast tide, he could only exist like a small soldier, even if, as a level-4 fighter, he could deal with level-6 enemies.

However, Zhou Mingrui was certain of one thing. If his talent and skills were unsealed, his current strength was enough to fight or even defeat a level-6 monster on his own without activating Soul Attachment.

Furthermore, this was only his estimation, and he had the help of the stone tablet. On the other hand, Zhou Mingrui would not know how much stronger he had become if he did not engage in actual combat.

Unfortunately, in the face of a beast tide with at least level-6 monsters, his strength was not enough.

However, strength wasn't something he could increase as he pleased. Even with the stone tablet's knowledge, he didn't have any way to quickly increase his strength without side effects.

Thinking about this, Zhou Mingrui was somewhat frustrated.

After coming to his senses, he realized that he had arrived at the front of the line of defense. There were groups of soldiers patrolling with loaded guns everywhere.

When they saw Zhou Mingrui, they did not stop to question him. The watch on his body had already verified his identity. Furthermore, there were nothing important or facilities over there.

The most important thing was that Lieutenant General Yu had given Yan Wuyue a certain level of authority. Through this, many complicated processes could be avoided.

When he arrived at a watchtower, Zhou Mingrui walked up. The soldier on duty glanced at his watch and did not stop him.

Looking up, he saw the wilderness outside the defense line covered in rolling sand and wind. It was a barren land.

"Are you a newbie?" Zhou Mingrui looked at the soldier on duty and asked.

"Yes, sir!" the soldier immediately replied.

As Zhou Mingrui's authority was shared with Yan Wuyue, and her current rank was the first lieutenant, the soldier thought he was an officer on patrol.

"You seem to have just joined the army?" Zhou Mingrui asked again.

"Yes, sir. I've been in the army for less than a year," the soldier replied.

"Aren't you afraid?" Zhou Mingrui asked with a smile.

"For my family, my people, and my country, I have no fear!" the young soldier said confidently.

"Do you know that you are as weak as a kitten in front of the beast tide? They can easily crush you to death," Zhou Mingrui continued to threaten the young soldier.

"I'm not afraid. My duty is to observe all possible situations and report them. Reporting a second earlier might be the key, so this is my responsibility!" the young soldier replied.

Zhou Mingrui was taken aback, for he had expected the young soldier to boast that he was not afraid of anything. However, this young man had stated his position and responsibilities, making his threatening words seem to be nothing.

"What's your name?" Zhou Mingrui asked curiously.

"Sir, I am Xu Zhenglong!" the soldier replied.

"Xu Zhenglong, since the military allowed you to stand guard in the watchtower, your summoned spirit should be able to observe, right?" Zhou Mingrui asked.

"Yes, sir. My summoned spirit is a three-headed tiger-eagle. It can enhance my vision by many times, and I can even see things that ordinary people can't," Xu Zhenglong replied directly.

The next second, as the light gathered, a four-hooved summoned spirit the size of an elephant appeared on the watchtower. It had three heads, an eagle head, a tiger head, and a tongue. Moreover, there were two pairs of wings on its back.

"Not bad," Zhou Mingrui exclaimed in admiration.

It was obvious that the three-headed tiger-eagle was a high-level summoned spirit, and it was extremely powerful in both combat enhancement and functionality.

"Thank you, sir!" Xu Zhenglong immediately replied.

At this moment, Zhou Mingrui suddenly walked forward and reached his hand to touch the three-headed tiger-eagle. Xu Zhenglong immediately shouted, "Be careful, Sir. He's a grumpy boy."

Before Xu Zhenglong could finish his sentence, he noticed that the three-headed tiger-eagle, who had always had bad tempers, was obediently allowing Zhou Mingrui to pet its heads. Moreover, it even wagged its tail from time to time like a cute puppy.

This scene caused Xu Zhenglong to be stunned. Even when the three-headed tiger-eagle was in its best of moods, he would not have such a reaction when he touched it. What was going on today?

"Your summoned spirit is a good boy," Zhou Mingrui laughed and said.

"You can communicate with summoned spirits?" Xu Zhenglong asked, puzzled.
