"Monk, Old Sun has never admired anyone in my life except the World Grand Commander, you’re the second! Co on, tonight at Yue Chef Building it’s on , we won’t leave until we’re drunk!"
Having just erged from the Secret Realm, Sun Chaozong cheerfully exclaid, his scar-covered face brimming with a terrifying smile.
"Sun, he’s a monk, and you’re taking him to eat at and drink alcohol?"
"Ah? Is there a vegetarian place nearby?"
"Please don’t worry about ," Mouse Monk said, "just have the restaurant make a vegetarian dish."
"But we’re all rough folks, definitely going to drink and eat at." Sun Chaozong scratched his head, "Monk, won’t you feel uncomfortable watching us feast?"
"Rules and precepts are ant to restrain oneself, not others. Moreover, the precepts also prohibit killing, yet who knows how many demons died under my sword today," Mouse Monk placed his hands together, "I do not save humans, only demons."
If any other monk spoke like this, Sun Chaozong and others would surely feel contempt, but when Mouse Monk said this, they felt only admiration—after arriving at Xuanwu Lake Military Town for five days, except for the first day settling in, Mouse Monk entered the Secret Realm to battle each of the next four days.
Moreover, on the second day, Mouse Monk underwent a second career change. Even though everyone knew he had the support of Chancellor Shang Xuanwen, the speed was incredibly alarming.
Not only that, on the day of his career change, he applied to join the ’Stone Sinking Creek’ assault team at the Second-Turn Secret Realm, but the leaders did not imdiately agree, seemingly wanting to contact Shang Xuanwen—after all, allowing a newly converted Second-Turn ssenger to assault a Second-Turn Secret Realm would make outsiders think the Xuanwu Lake Military Town was trying to get Shang Xuanwen’s savior killed.
It wasn’t until yesterday that the leaders agreed, assigning Mouse Monk to Sun Chaozong’s team to participate in today’s ’Stone Sinking Creek’ assault battle.
Although they had heard of Mouse Monk’s talents, Sun Chaozong did not believe that a newly transitioned rookie could play much role in the Second-Turn Secret Realm, even thinking he ca to earn undeserved rits, thus his attitude was naturally full of disdain.
These Second-Turn ssengers who permanently reside in the Military Town to assault the Secret Realm have lived life on the edge for years, dreaming of fighting demons with their eyes closed—only true strength earns their respect.
Therefore, after a day of attacking the Secret Realm, the team’s attitude towards Mouse Monk changed completely.
Daring to confront demons head-on, and even divert the Demon King’s attention to buy output ti for others when Sun Chaozong was in danger—the sheer courage and ability made this group of military n sincerely admire him.
In the Military Town, nothing provides more security than teaming up with the strong.
"Mouse really is amazing," soone laughed, "he’s been battling in Secret Realms for five consecutive days, surely he won’t keep going tomorrow?"
Mouse Monk smiled, saying nothing.
Sun Chaozong sweated from his forehead: "Monk, you wouldn’t still want to go to ’Stone Sinking Creek’ tomorrow, would you? How about relaxing at ’Wind and Snow Temple’?"
"No need to worry, I can join tomorrow’s ’Stone Sinking Creek’ assault team, just hope that Sun Ya General could introduce , otherwise I’d have to trouble the Commander for arrangents," Mouse Monk said, "Would it trouble Sun Ya General?"
"Just call Sun, or even Old Sun is fine, no need to call Ya General, it feels too formal." Sun Chaozong said, "An introduction wouldn’t be troubleso, with your capabilities, you’d be welcod into any team, it’s just... I was hoping you could stay permanently in our team."
"I only wish to purge demons, whoever is willing to assault the Secret Realm, I’ll go with them. When it’s your team’s turn, just invite ."
Sun Chaozong’s face turned red as he looked at his other teammates, noticing their expressions were rather complicated.
Their team generally assaults ’Stone Sinking Creek’ about once a week, not too much nor too little, living fairly well, with their respective families being major landlords or minor elite families near the Military Town. But if they wished to advance further, they could only increase their assault frequency to accumulate rits.
Originally, they planned to continue like this until it was no longer viable, then retire ho, but Mouse Monk as a teammate provided too much security—even though he said he’d accompany them on future assaults, they really couldn’t bear to lose such an excellent teammate.
Especially Sun Chaozong, a teammate who shares risks in critical monts is practically more important than a wife.
He tentatively asked, "How about... we apply to assault ’Stone Sinking Creek’ again tomorrow?"
Seeing Mouse Monk confirm the plan for tomorrow, Yan Qing got up to stretch his limbs. It was his first ti tackling a Second-Turn instance, taking nearly three hours—not because the instance was very difficult, but because the Military Town’s assault plan was too ’safe.’
Firstly, it wasn’t the ssengers who entered the Secret Realm, but the engineers who excavated the soil and setup fire traps, providing advantageous terrain for ssengers to lure monsters into traps for burning; when preparing to assault demons with long-range attack capabilities, the engineers could even build walls directly, forcing the ranged demons to circle around for close combat with the ssengers; no matter how much safety could be added, the Military Town never hesitated to employ sufficient manpower and resources to lower the difficulty of assaulting the Secret Realm.
Yet even so, battling the Demon King just now made everyone sweat, without Yan Qing’s tily intervention, even if no one died, there would have been severe injuries.
It’s said three hours is already short, so Third-Turn Secret Realm assaults are asured in days, even building fortresses within the Secret Realm.
