Chapter 2079: Chapter 2079: Light-Year Distance (8)

The Second Legion may be ranked second, but in reality, it comes in second-to-last among the Five Great Legions.

Chuzheng briefly acquainted herself with the gossip—no, the history—of the Second Legion being thrashed.

It’s quite beneficial for the Second Legion in the Allied Army that they finally produced an Alliance Hero.

After touring the entire legion, Inspector Yao took Chuzheng to the conference room to meet the high-ranking officials of the Second Legion.

The high-ranking officials enthusiastically welcomed Chuzheng’s arrival and had a brief exchange about future work before both parties attended the welcome banquet.

The people of the Second Legion indeed welcomed Chuzheng, so nothing happened during the event.

It was just that in the end, someone stood up and requested to spar with Chuzheng.

In the legion, fists rule, and that’s the correct opening, with everyone expectantly looking at Chuzheng.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Not really in the mood for a fight.

I can’t go all out; I have to be careful not to kill anyone. Isn’t that just looking for trouble?

”Deputy Inspector Liang, how about a little exercise?” Inspector Yao said cheerfully.

Chuzheng took a step back.

Her retreating posture immediately elicited a slight contempt from the soldiers below.

Inspector Yao frowned slightly. Chuzheng seemed oblivious to these people’s reactions and turned to Inspector Yao: ”If I end up causing someone problems, I won’t be in trouble, right?”

Inspector Yao was stunned, then replied after a moment: ”Of course not; feel free to go all out.”

Chuzheng gave Inspector Yao a serious nod: ”Then I’ll be reassured.”

Inspector Yao: ”...”

Something feels off.

Inspector Yao soon realized what was off.

Chuzheng looked soft and weak, with little combat ability. Previous reports showed she only had a talent for command, so such face-to-face confrontation should be unsuitable for her.

Who knew that once she got up there, she effortlessly threw her challengers to the ground, easier than tossing a stone.

Everyone: ”...”

From then on, no matter how many people came up, Chuzheng could take them down in a few moves.

Gradually, fewer people went up.

Eventually, no one stepped forward.

”Anyone else?” Chuzheng stood in the center, her gaze sweeping over everyone.

People looked at each other, some shoving, some retreating, but no one went up.

”Ahem... all right, that’s enough for today,” Inspector Yao said to break the awkwardness, ”Deputy Inspector Liang must be tired; there will be ample opportunities to spar later!”

With a way out given, everyone immediately followed suit.

Chuzheng also found it boring, and the matter was dismissed.

However, the few skills she displayed probably ensured that the Second Legion wouldn’t look down on her again.

The next few days, Chuzheng’s transition went fairly smoothly—at least on the surface.

Knock, knock.

Chuzheng stuffed the clutter on her table into a drawer and tidied herself up: ”Come in.”

”Deputy Inspector Liang, there’s a field exercise next week; you might not know, so Inspector Yao asked me to report it to you.”

”A field exercise?”

”Yes, it’s a joint exercise of the Five Great Legions.”

Such exercises happen periodically, but a joint exercise of the Five Great Legions only happens once a year.

Chuzheng is a superior officer, so she doesn’t need to participate.

However, she has to command.

The elimination order of the Five Great Legions determines the ranking for the coming year.

Though it doesn’t have any substantial impact—everyone’s superiors are different, and resources depend on them—but it’s a matter of honor; they can’t lose!

The exercise location is on another planet, and Chuzheng sets off with people from the Second Legion.

It takes about three days to reach the planet, and besides discussing tactics with them, Chuzheng spends the rest of the time in her cabin.

”Deputy Inspector Liang, want to grab a drink?” Inspector Yao invited Chuzheng, ”I can also explain some rules of this exercise. Since you haven’t participated before, you probably aren’t familiar, right?”

Chuzheng indeed wasn’t too familiar.

So, it’s necessary to understand it.

Following Inspector Yao, Chuzheng went over. On the way, Inspector Yao was a bit curious: ”Did you hear the rumors outside, Deputy Inspector Liang?”

”Which ones?”

Inspector Yao gave a light cough: ”You cutting ties with the Liang Family...and you... Inspector Lu, why are you here?”

Inspector Yao’s tone changed at the end, clearly surprised.

He had just mentioned Inspector Lu, and then he appeared...

Following Inspector Yao’s gaze, Chuzheng saw Lu Zhaonian standing straight in an inspector’s uniform, looking quite handsome.

Lu Zhaonian’s eyes lit up slightly upon seeing Chuzheng: ”Chu...” He stopped his words abruptly and awkwardly cut them off.

”Inspector Yao, Deputy Inspector Liang,” Lu Zhaonian suppressed his excitement and greeted Inspector Yao.

Lu Zhaonian belonged to the First Legion, so he shouldn’t appear on this Second Legion’s warship.

Inspector Yao was puzzled: ”Inspector Lu, what brings you here?”

Lu Zhaonian composed himself: ”Had some business to take care of, I’ll be leaving soon.”

Inspector Yao understood and engaged in small talk with Lu Zhaonian.

Lu Zhaonian wanted to stay but was soon summoned away, glancing back at Chuzheng several times as he left.

Inspector Yao pressed a fist to his lips: ”Not to be nosy, Deputy Inspector Liang, but what’s going on between you and Inspector Lu?”

If you’re not nosy, why ask?

”There’s nothing going on.”

”But there are rumors about you two... and there was that Lu Family wedding that got interrupted midway.”

Lu Zhaonian’s gaze when he saw her earlier was so bright it was startling, there must be something going on!

Chuzheng and Lu Zhaonian’s past relationship wasn’t widely known, so many people weren’t aware, which is understandable.

”It’s all in the past, no need to bring it up now.” Chuzheng said calmly: ”Is Inspector Yao here to discuss gossip with me?”

Inspector Yao: ”...”

Laughing it off, Inspector Yao led Chuzheng to discuss serious matters.

Bam!

Just as the two reached the designated lounge, the warship suddenly jolted, causing items on the table to tumble to the floor with a clattering sound.

Though startled, the others in the cabin quickly regained composure thanks to years of training.

Chuzheng steadied herself as Inspector Yao activated the communicator: ”What’s going on?”

Someone on the other end shouted: ”Inspector Yao, we’re under attack!”

This entire route is within human-occupied Star Domain, who dares to attack the legion’s warship midway?

This thought flashed through Inspector Yao’s mind, and with no time to think it through, he turned to Chuzheng: ”To the control room!”

The corridor was in chaos, with the warship occasionally jolting, and sparks flying from areas under attack.

Boom!

A violent explosion came from the front, with a wave of air rushing over like a hurricane.

Both Inspector Yao and Chuzheng shifted aside to avoid the blast wave.

The alarm overhead lit up, with a cold electronic voice spreading.

”Intruder alert—”

Chuzheng and Inspector Yao exchanged a glance across the space.
