God-Level Special Forces Soldier

Chapter 472: Chapter 469: Awakening

”Young Master!”

The Zhong Family’s butler lightly knocked on the door, abruptly waking the tightly shut-eyed Xiao Tian inside.

Xiao Tian opened the door, saw the slightly hunched family butler, and quickly welcomed him in: ”Mr. Zhong, you’re here!”

As the old butler of the Zhong Family stepped in, over twenty people followed in simultaneously, their firm and powerful steps indicating rigorous training.

When the fifth-to-last person entered, the last four closed the door, two standing on each side, becoming the staunchest guards.

Just now, Lan Qi and Xu Fei both advised Xiao Tian to let them in. However, considering he would soon become the undeniable center of attention and neither knew martial arts,

He absolutely couldn’t spare the energy to protect the two of them when the time came. So, no matter how eloquent their pleas, Xiao Tian held firmly to this bottom line, unmoved.

The fact that these two had the intention and courage to face life and death with him proved that he hadn’t made these brothers in vain, but since that was the case, he had even less reason to let them die for nothing!

At this moment, Xiao Tian’s former team members also received the news, and those already on the return journey turned around and came back!

They disregarded orders to return, hanging up without hesitation—a direct act of defiance!

Even though they clearly knew, punishment from Xiao Tian was inevitable, whether they’d face penalties upon returning to the unit or not.

Still, they raced over without regard for anything else, determined to live and die with Xiao Tian!

Moreover, special units in every major military district that had undergone intense training with Xiao Tian submitted applications to assist him.

These people didn’t initially expect their requests to be approved, but with no way out, they gathered to figure out how to deploy the greatest strength.

Unexpectedly, just when they were secretly conspiring, the door suddenly opened, and those who assumed this battle request would be rejected found a bright red stamp on their application!

It actually... was approved?!

Although everyone felt as if they were in a dream, they packed their ready-to-go gear and set out for Shanghai immediately.

After several waves of military lobbyists failed miserably, they finally changed strategies: to provide full support!

Reportedly, several bigwigs slammed tables at a meeting, ultimately concluding that if they couldn’t stop it, they should provide full support; they had to protect Xiao Tian at all costs!

Hence, the operational requests were easily approved!

Truckloads of elites from several major military districts headed straight for Shanghai, targeting Xiao Tian!

——

”Young Master!” The butler patted Xiao Tian’s back with his calloused hand: ”Don’t worry, even if I have to lay these old bones down, I’ll ensure you and Miss Lin are safe!”

”Mr. Zhong?!”

Xiao Tian, astonished, quickly said, ”Why say such inauspicious things? You’ll surely live to a ripe old age!”

For the old butler in his home, Xiao Tian remained very respectful!

Thinking of the countless times in childhood when this old Mr. Zhong took him out to play, fishing out crumpled bills from his pocket to buy him toys and snacks, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but be nostalgic!

Although the butler’s salary monthly should be significant, he spent it all on the younger generation of the Zhong Family, particularly on Xiao Tian.

Thus, the butler’s status in the Zhong Family was very high; although nominally the butler, the respect he received was extraordinary!

Hearing Xiao Tian’s words, the old butler waved his hand: ”Enough of that, Young Master. We received the latest news before coming!”

”After discussions among military high-ups, they decided to dispatch elites from various military districts to support you. An initial estimate suggests over 3000 are on the way!”

Hearing this news from the old butler, Xiao Tian smiled softly and shook his head: ”We should start quickly; while most of the enemy has yet to gather, starting early means less resistance, more safety!”

The old butler nodded, clearly agreeing with Xiao Tian!

It’s not a matter of mistrusting the military or the supporting personnel, but coming now is too late!

If the military had provided significant support immediately when the news broke, things wouldn’t be so difficult now!

Initially, the enemy couldn’t have gathered so quickly, even if an advance team arrived, it’d be primarily for reconnaissance, lacking real strength.

If the military had given decisive support, assisting Xiao Tian with Lin Bingxuan’s treatment before the enemy posed a threat or amassed,

then there wouldn’t have been a situation like today, no matter what!

But no one could be blamed; such large-scale mobilizations involve complex procedures that can’t be settled overnight, missing the best opportunity comes as no surprise!

Besides, Xiao Tian never pinned his hopes on this!

No hope, no disappointment!

Strictly speaking, Zhong Aiguo’s support for his son this time is by no means weak.

Though just over twenty, each match Saintly Virtue Daoist in pure martial might, pillars of the Zhong Family compound!

Even the Zhong Family doesn’t have many such experts; deploying over twenty means Zhong Aiguo’s security force is reduced by at least two-thirds!

Zhong Aiguo’s determination to support his son is apparent from here!

Xiao Tian didn’t delay, cupping his fist towards the experts standing against the wall: ”Everyone, I entrust this to you!”

Indeed, Xiao Tian was a bit nervous, uncertain if this strength could fend off the hidden enemy...

Currently, visibly arrived are the Gong Family, the Zhong Family, and the Lu Family en route.

These forces enough to match the experts in the room, not to mention who knows what dangers lurk unseen?!

Despite a profound Mr. Zhong present, Xiao Tian still felt the odds were not great; a generous estimate was fifty-fifty.

Therefore, Xiao Tian must complete Lin Bingxuan’s healing before the enemy’s large force assembles; otherwise, once gathered, chaos would ensue beyond control!

Of course, ’beyond control’ is relative; while not controlled by Xiao Tian, neither would the enemy be able to control it!

Right now, saving lives takes precedence.

As he produced the Life Seal, ready to press it onto Lin Bingxuan’s forehead to eradicate the Power of Death,

the beauty on the sickbed, who had been in a deep sleep, slowly opened her beautiful eyes...
