Chapter 261: Instead of Going to the Northern Army to Make a Difference, Why Are You Sitting Here as a Small Chairman?
"Northern Defense Army?"
Hearing Jin Ping's words, Russell was stunned in place for a moment.
He never thought that he would encounter such a problem just to get some benefits.
You have to know that the association and the Northern Defense Army are two systems, and he can't just go there as he says.
Jin Ping wiped the blood off his right hand slowly and said expressionlessly: "This is an order."
"Or"
"Do you want to disobey my will?"
Seeing the old man's eyes in front of him gradually becoming dangerous, Russell forced himself to control the fear in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Yes, I know, President."
"I will try my best to transfer to the Northern Defense Army."
He didn't forget what role he played now. In Jin Ping's eyes, his contract has never expired!
If he hesitated at this moment, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to go back alive today.
Hearing Russell's answer, Jin Ping still stared at him indifferently, carefully observing the young man's expression.
After a while, the old man with the hooked nose suddenly showed a kind smile on his face: "You did a good job this time, Xiaoliu."
"What reward do you want?"
Hearing this, Russell was relieved and realized that he had gotten away with it this time.
At this time, cold sweat had already crawled all over his back. He couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Moody old lunatic!"
Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face, but just replied respectfully: "President, you decide."
Seemingly very satisfied with Russell's attitude, Jin Ping walked to his side and stretched out his right hand that was not wiped clean and patted him on the shoulder, leaving a blood mark: "You just broke through to the Emerald Level, and then I will support you with a set of Emerald Level materials."
The old man paused, considering that the young man in front of him might not have conceived the story of the next Emerald Level card, and continued: "You can tell Xiaowu directly about your specific needs, and he will send it to you when the time comes."
"Yes, thank you, President."
Successfully getting the benefits, Russell's originally bad mood improved a little.
But after all, it was still difficult to be transferred to the Shubei Army, and it was strange that one of his disciples, Bai Yueming, went to work for Fang Wenlong.
Unless
Just as he was thinking, Jin Ping said again: "After you go to the Shubei Army, you will have only one task."
"That is to do your best to obtain relevant information about the experiment of the Demon Army."
"Remember, do your best, even if it is exposed."
Hearing this, Russell's heart sank. You know, when he went to Donglai to take office before, Jin Ping told him that he could sacrifice the entire Qiling Association of Donglai in order to hide himself.
But this time, he didn't care whether he would be exposed or not, and only wanted to obtain detailed information about Li Shuo's experiment, which was enough to show how much Jin Ping valued the experiment.
He valued it so much that he was willing to sacrifice him, a nail that he had cultivated with great difficulty.
However, Russell would definitely not show any abnormality at this time, and nodded honestly: "Yes, President."
"Then I will go back first."
"Yeah."
Seeing the young man disappear in the room, Jin Ping's eyes flickered: "Hey, those useless people from the Guiyi Sect really made something."
"It's a pity that it's still a little different from what I imagined."
"The plan still needs to continue."
On the other side, Russell, who returned home, finally relaxed his tense nerves.
Russell didn't care about trying his best to obtain information. After all, he was not really controlled, and Jin Ping couldn't know whether he tried his best. At that time, he would not be able to tell if he just fooled the old man.
Russell could even modify some of the experimental content and let Jin Ping cosplay Ouyang Feng who was deceived by Huang Rong.
However, how to get into the Shubei Army gave him a headache.
It's not that there is no way, but because he really has a way to get in.
Russell didn't forget that his senior brother and second sister were in the Shubei Army.
Although he was not as familiar with these two as Lonely Old Tao, there should still be room for maneuver in this matter. I think the Shubei Army would not reject this genius of his.?
How to transfer to the Shubei Army was solved, but Russell had to face a more difficult problem next.
That was how to explain to Bai Yueming.
He sent a message to his teacher with an uneasy mood, but he did not receive a reply after half a day.
"Is the situation in Antarctica so bad?"
Russell was now mixed with joy and sorrow.
The joy was that since Bai Yueming did not reply, he could do it first and then report.
The worry was that it had been a long time since he last sent a greeting, but he still did not receive a response. Even a fool knew that there must be a big problem in Antarctica now.
"I hope everything is well with the teacher."
After blessing his teacher in his heart, Russell sent a message to politely reject Qi Ran's previous proposal.
The reason given was also very simple.
If it is beneficial to the country, I will die for it!
Compared to being a firefighter in Qilu, Russell is going to go directly to the Northern Army to shine!
Qi Ran was completely confused when she received this message, but the woman immediately laughed and cried.
After confirming through the phone that Russell was determined to leave, she looked at the hung up phone and muttered to herself: "I wouldn't have said it if I had known."
"Hey"
After rejecting Qi Ran's repeated invitations, Russell immediately sent a message in [Loving Family].
[Russell: x-on:Zhang Jingxing x-on:Ye Zhirou, Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister, I am going to contribute my strength to the Northern Army. Do you have any ideas? ]
[Russell: If not, I will start from a small soldier. ]
[Russell: Oh, by the way, I am Emerald Level. ]
[Hu Tao:? ]
In the blink of an eye, Gu Gu Lao Tao put a question mark in the group chat. It can be seen that she is really bored.
But soon, the group chat was filled with question marks.
[Zhang Jingxing:? ]
[Ye Zhirou:? ]
[Li Fuyu:? ]
[Li Fuyu: Junior Brother, are you still human? I remember that you have been a card maker for less than two years. Ye Diantang has not been as fast as you. It is too outrageous. ]
Russell looked at the speech of the third senior brother on the phone, which was still uninterrupted as usual, and couldn't help but complain: "I don't know how the people under Senior Brother Li can bear it."
However, before he could reply, Li Fuyu had already discovered the blind spot.
[Li Fuyu: Wait, Junior Brother, have you told the teacher that you are going to the Shubei Army? ! ]
[Russell: The teacher didn't reply. ]
[Zhang Jingxing: The teacher can't reply for the time being, but are you sure, Junior Brother? The Shubei Army is not a good place. ]
Seeing the speech of the eldest senior brother, Russell understood in his heart. Obviously, as the eldest senior brother, Zhang Jingxing had some understanding of Bai Yueming's situation.
[Russell: Well, President Qi of the Qiluka Division Association told me that your Shubei Army is preparing to withdraw its defense line recently? So I thought about going to help. ]
[Russell: As for the teacher, he should understand my choice. ]
[Russell: And I am not not planning to return to the coastal areas. ]
[Li Fuyu: That's good. I thought you were going to take over Master Fang's mantle. ]
[Zhang Jingxing: I know. I'll tell the higher-ups. I'll let you know when there's news. ]
[Russell: Thank you, senior brother. ]
[Zhang Jingxing: You'd better not thank me. I'm afraid of being beaten to death by the teacher. ]
Seeing Zhang Jingxing's joke, Russell laughed.
Can't these disciples know what kind of person their teacher is?
For each disciple, Bai Yueming treats him as a complete and independent individual.
Just like Hu Tao, as a diamond-level card maker, she is a class teacher at Nanjing University. It's really a waste of talent.
And considering that she is already a diamond-level card maker at her age, her talent is definitely a monster. Others think she is wasting her time.
But Bai Yueming still didn't say anything.
Just when Russell was about to put away his phone, a sudden vibration stopped him.
A closer look revealed that it was a private message.

[Hu Tao: Liar. ]
Seeing this news, Russell couldn't help but be stunned.
How come his senior sister made him look like a scumbag who cheated money and sex.
But he immediately figured out why.
[Russell: I will take time to come back to see your senior sister. Senior sister, you make me feel guilty. ]
[Hu Tao: Big liar. ]
Russell froze. It's true that he didn't go back to Nandu during this period, but God has mercy on him because he was really overwhelmed by the Guiyi Sect in Donglai. How could he have time to go back to visit his relatives?
He quickly typed on his phone.
[Russell: This time it's true. If I lie to you, I will be struck by lightning. ]
He thought that he was just going to the Shubei Army to get some information, and he shouldn't have to worry about everything like Donglai.
After all, the Shubei Army is not like Donglai, where there are only two or three big cats and small cats. There are many diamond-level card makers in the army, not to mention Fang Wenlong, a master-level card maker.
[Hu Tao: Forget it, my junior brother lives a long life. ]
Hu Tao, she is really, I am crying.
The guilt in Russell's heart is getting stronger and stronger.
He can understand why Hu Tao only looks for him, because before he came, the lonely old Tao was the youngest among Bai Yueming's disciples.
It is very likely that the senior sister is like himself, and has not had much contact with the other three senior brothers and sisters, so now he, the youngest, has become the most familiar person to the other party except the teacher.
[Russell: Things in Donglai are almost dealt with. I should have some time before going to the Shubei Army. I will go back to Nandu to live for a few days. ]
[Hu Tao: Yes. ]
Putting away the phone, Russell sighed silently, feeling that he had a heavy responsibility to maintain the good atmosphere of the master's sect.
Then he began to think about what materials to exchange for the rewards given by Jinping.
At present, he only has one Emerald Grade material on hand, and the purpose of [Dingguo·Red Dragon] dropped by Li Shuo has been thought of, that is, to upgrade Lily to Emerald Grade.
However, there is a key problem
Lily has the chain card [Silver Arm].
And the chain effect says that when Lily is promoted, investing [Holy Sword·Excalibur] will be strengthened, which obviously requires [Holy Sword·Excalibur] to be made first.
Then the material reward given by the Qiling Society is not suitable for exchanging the materials needed to promote Lily.
Of course, it is not suitable for exchanging the materials for upgrading [Silver Arm].
After all, even if [Silver Arm] is upgraded to [Holy Sword·Excalibur], Russell currently has no suitable card to use it.
As for exchanging materials for making cards under the identity of the Qiling Society
He would be stupid to do so.
Obviously, he won't need the identity of the Spirit Beggars Association in the short term after he joins the Northern Army.
"Forget it, no hurry."
Russell breathed a sigh of relief and decided to talk about it later.
Noon, outside the southern capital.
Russell looked at the tall beauty in front of him who was only half a head shorter than him and said softly: "Senior sister, I'm leaving now."
"I'll come back to see you when I have time."
When he said this, he still felt a little guilty.
After all, he seemed to have said this the last time he went to Donglai to take up his post.
Hearing this, Hu Tao nodded slightly: "Be careful."
Russell waved his hand, and then he disappeared into the shadows under the leadership of the ghost soldiers, leaving Hu Tao standing quietly in the same place, and turned around and entered the manor behind him after a long time.
On the other side, Russell felt that the speed of the [Ghost Mask] was not enough for him on his way to Jizhou Town.
But because there was no material, he had no plan to change it at present.
Let's talk about his destination, Jizhou Town.
Because before the card maker appeared, the Ming Dynasty had been beaten by the foreign races, and the Jizhou Town, which was supposed to contain the Nine Border Guards, became a border town.
Even though the foreign races that caused this situation were almost extinct, the original territory was not taken back.
Because there were more terrifying things than the foreign races on those lands, demons.
And this time, Russell went to Jizhou Town to take up his post. His senior brother Zhang Jingxing had also informed him of the position before.
The deputy commander of the Jizhou Town of the Shubei Army.
If calculated according to the official position of the court, it is the third rank.
"It's not low in this way. If I remember correctly, Master Fang should be the left governor."
It is worth mentioning that because of the appearance of the card maker, although the Shubei Army still uses the military title of the Ming Dynasty, the number and function have long been completely different.
Just like the original deputy commander of the entire Dusi (similar to the current military region), there were only four.
But in the Northern Defense Army, as long as one is Emerald, he is at least a deputy commander, and the number is increasing.
And with the number increasing, it is impossible for everyone to lead troops, and not everyone has the talent to command troops.
Just like Russell has never been exposed to military books, he may be able to command Pokémon battles, but large-scale group operations are not difficult for him.
However, although he has no soldiers under his command, there is no difference between the deputy commanders.
After all, this is an extraordinary world, and the right answer is to return the power to oneself.
What's wrong with not having soldiers? An Emerald card maker can form an army by himself.
Just as he was thinking about it, the sky gradually darkened.
"I should have set off earlier."
As Russell muttered to himself, a magnificent and fortified city suddenly came into his sight.
"Whoosh!"
Just as he was getting closer and closer to the fortified city, an extremely shrill whistle sounded, and at the same time, Xiaowu instantly appeared in front of Russell.
"Buzz~"
Then a shout rang out from the city wall: "This is a critical border area, stop anyone who comes!"
Looking at the trembling feather arrow in Xiao Wu's hand, Russell took a deep breath.
"Commander-in-chief of the Northern Army, Russell, come and take up your post!"
