Chapter 406
406 The Supreme Commander of Shandu!
After the macaw finished speaking, it jumped back to the pile of pets quietly, trying to turn invisible. Unfortunately, it was the most conspicuous one in the pile of pets with the old hen on its head.
link stood up. 30% of the embarrassment on his face was an act, 40% of his excitement was real, and 30% of his determination was all fake.
“Everyone’s words woke me up from a dream. Since it concerns the lives of millions of people in the sand capital, I, link, will not shirk my duty. In the future, I’ll have to ask the three commanders to give me some guidance!” Link picked up his cup and drank it all.
Commander Munn also sipped his tea. After making his decision, the pressure on him was lifted and he looked much more relaxed.
now that we’ve confirmed general Lin’s identity as the Supreme Commander of Shandu, I think we should release the news as soon as possible to stabilize the morale of the Army and deal with the inquiry letter from the freedom Federation.
I suggest that the inauguration ceremony be broadcast live in the entire desert. It would be best if we can confirm it by tonight.
Now, the three of them had established their identities, sworn their allegiance over tea, and relieved themselves of their military power.
just as link was about to say something, the macaw ran over with a phone in its hand. it shouted into the phone, Hello, penny? you heard the discussion just now, right? hurry up and make arrangements!
On the other end of the phone, supervisor Penny’s eyes lit up when he heard this exciting news. He said excitedly, ” don’t worry, I’ll make the arrangements right away. Give me half an hour!
after hanging up the phone, supervisor penny trembled with excitement, and he began to mumble to himself uncontrollably, ” “When the boss was the Minister of Economy and the boss of the slums, Lin’s consortium could control almost all the industries in Shandu. Now that the boss is going to officially become the Supreme Commander of the sand capital, the entire sand capital will be the Lin family financial group’s back garden. In the future, our business can expand to other parts of the freedom Federation, aww!”
Penny looked at the map of wasteland planet behind him and grinned. “From now on, Lin’s Financial Group’s business territory will begin to expand outwards.”
Weeping Valley, Divine Tree.
The macaw hung up the phone and ran back into the pet pile without a trace.
Link looked at the camera chicken among the pets and shook his head with a smile. He didn’t understand why the macaw was so active today. It also had amazing eyesight. First, it scolded Wimbledon and then rebuked link. It was the black face twice and urged the three commanders to hand over the military power. Finally, it contacted supervisor penny to confirm the live broadcast and the promotion. It appeared just at the right time.
If not for Zuan’s rap-like Blabbermouth, link would have thought that this guy was possessed by something.
general Lin, in the two battles, the shadu Army has suffered heavy losses. According to what you said before, if the enemy continues to harass us with mechanical attacks, what should we do? ” Commander Dai’s status changed very quickly, and he quickly focused his attention back on the battlefield.
There weren’t many mobile troops in shadu, and a lot of armed Jeeps, armored vehicles, and tanks were lost in this battle.
Even the Inhumans who were previously proud of them were like wheat waiting to be harvested in front of the armed jeep. Under the intense firepower, they fell one after another and became cannon fodder.
If the enemy used a team of armed Jeeps with high mobility to harass them every day, it would be very difficult to get out of the sand.
“This problem will be easily solved in a few days, so don’t worry. The most important thing now is to send the news of our defeat back to Shandu and stabilize the situation.”
“don’t worry, general. we will do our best to cooperate.” The three commanders said in unison.
Now that they had lost their military power, if they didn’t unite by Link’s side, they would soon be idle at home with the excuse of resting and be completely powerless.
“Then we’ll be busy tonight!” Link said meaningfully.
The entire Shandu was in a hurry overnight.
The news that the front line had suffered another defeat was sent back to the city, and the citizens who saw the troops gather and drive out of the city at night were in a panic.
“I heard that the Army that set out this time was defeated? The 10,000-man army advanced at night, but they fell into the enemy’s trap. I heard that less than 10% of them returned, and there are piles of corpses outside weeping Valley!”
“Ah? He was defeated again? How could he lose? isn’t link in the military Committee? there are so many Inhumans there!”
I heard that link had a different opinion about this event, but he was alone in the military Committee, so he quit a week ago. He’s been playing in the sand City with his pet every day.
“it must be their sense of superiority. they don’t think highly of link’s background and are trying to suppress him. this group of trash is making the people of shandu panic. can they still stay here?”
“Alas, if things continue like this, I’m afraid that the fall of Shandu is only a matter of time. We might as well pack up and retreat as soon as possible. I heard that if the desert coalition forces attack the city, they will either be captured by the wasteland gang as slaves or captured by the machinery faith as human batteries!”
I’m done. I’m going home to pack my things.
many citizens had the idea of ” running on thin and soft ground “, and this feeling seemed to be able to spread through the air. the whole of shandu was filled with worry and uneasiness. at night, there were more violent activities. mina and her underlings patrolled the slums all night without stopping.
After midnight, the usually quiet streets were filled with cars trying to escape North.
There were also quite a few people who left on foot with their backpacks. They had no destination or detailed plan. Their only thought now was to leave Shandu.
Fear spread out and spread with the continuous honking of the vehicles.
Just as people were leaving Shandu in a panic, all the big LED screens in the city and the speakers that covered the streets showed the figure and voice of the number one host of Shandu TV station, Nicole.
The people walking on the road couldn’t help but stop when they heard this familiar yet strange voice.
The large projection on the surface of the building, the LED screen on the outer wall of the shopping mall, and the broadcast in the slums were all filled with this woman’s voice.
“Hello, everyone. I am Nicole. Now, I have a special report on the weeping Valley. Mr. Link, the Minister of Economy, member of the military Council, director of the military intelligence Department, and President of the Lin’s consortium, would now serve as the Supreme Commander of the military and political affairs of Shandu. The former Supreme Commander of the military and political affairs in Shandu, commander Wimbledon, was supervising the battle on the front line. After hearing the news of the second defeat, he couldn’t take it and vomited blood and fell unconscious. After waking up, he took full responsibility for the defeat of the Army and resigned. The members of the military Committee voted urgently to appoint link as the new Supreme Commander of the military and political affairs in Shandu, Qianqian.”
Nicole’s tone was firm. Coupled with the fact that Shenmu City was in the background, the credibility of the news was even higher.
The passers-by and citizens were still puzzled. Wasn’t a Military Committee established, and Shandu would hold a committee vote and share control? since when did Air Force commander winlayton become the Supreme Commander of Shandu?
As Nicole continued to report, the truth of the matter gradually came to light.
It turned out that the committee deeply felt that the voting system was lagging behind, so they voted for the oldest commander, commander Wimbledon, to be the temporary Supreme Commander of Shandu. In addition to the live report, there was also a scene of commander Wimbledon’s eyes tearing apart as he pointed in the distance and vomited blood. The perspective was switched again, and the scene of the armed Jeeps of the desert forces shooting at them was seen.
finally, with link as the supreme commander and the other three commanders as support, the new leadership of the sand capital appeared.
Link gave an important speech, ” unity of will, resistance against foreign enemies. he said that as long as the desert extremists were not eliminated, he would defend the weeping Valley! the other three commanders also expressed their desire to assist the supreme commander in protecting shadu.
after watching the interview, the pedestrians on the road were stunned for a long time.
After a while, many people turned around and walked back.
F * ck, Link’s in charge, so what’s the point of running? go home and sleep!
Link had officially become the Supreme Commander of the Shandu. In addition, he also had the Lin group, which controlled the economy of the Shandu, and the forces in the slums.
The idea of escaping to Shandu was dispelled by this piece of news, and almost 99% of the people chose to go home to catch up on sleep.
As for the remaining 0.1, they were basically gathered in the underground black market and The Platinum Hotel.
the underground emperor,’the good guy’ derek, couldn’t sit still after seeing the news.
The Platinum Hotel had sent out the highest-level information to link. Now that link had become the king of the sand capital and his black market was right under their noses, how could he not panic?
Link had even dared to barge into the city of mech. He would definitely raze the underground black market and The Platinum Hotel to the ground!
Derek worriedly took out a straight phone from the pure lead safe and dialed a number.
the next morning.
Link felt the sunlight shining on a corner of his blanket. He slowly opened his eyes and immediately checked the system.
In the system, the four titles of [Shatu Special Forces Battalion commander],[Shatu Military Council member],[Shatu Minister of Economic Affairs], and [Shatu Military Intelligence Division Director] had disappeared and were replaced by a new identity-[Shatu Supreme Commander].
“Phew, it’s not a dream.”
After checking his new title a few more times, Lin Ke finally heaved a sigh of relief.
What had happened last night was too intense. From resisting the desert coalition Army to becoming the Supreme Commander of Shandu without a single drop of blood, and then to stabilize the situation in Shandu, interviews and work arrangements had been made. When they returned to howling Castle after everything was done, it was already five in the morning.
you’re awake so early? I was going to wake you up ~”
Just as link was in a daze, the macaw appeared in the bedroom. It was carrying a silver plate on one wing and a face towel spread on the other. It was wearing a tight black suit with a red bow tie around its neck. It looked like a hotel attendant.
link rubbed his eyes and yawned.”This isn’t your style. could it be a side effect of using your ability yesterday?”
The macaw’s face was filled with black lines, but it still took a deep breath to suppress its anger and replied, ” “Your status is different now. You’re the Supreme Commander of shadu, so you must have a decent Secretary who’s responsible for your daily life. And looking at all of your subordinates and pets, who else can have lightning-like running speed and excellent eloquence besides me?”
The macaw put down the towel and plate, flapped its wings on the top of its head, and put on a pose that it thought was handsome.
Link shuddered at the thought of the macaw’s [ big-muzzled ] skill.
If the macaw were to wake him up every day, he would definitely be mentally exhausted.
” then you’ll be my secretary from now on. as for the tasks in the morning, it’s better for me to get a talking plant to place here. you have to use your precious time to help me deal with government affairs. ” Link also rejected the macaw’s kind offer in an extremely tactful way.
the macaw placed its hands on its hips and laughed.”Link, you’ve already seen the change in me! You’re right, I have to spend my limited time on more important things. Getting out of bed is a small matter, you can just plant a potted plant in the bedroom!”
Link got out of bed, washed up, and went to his office while eating breakfast.
he had been busy since yesterday until five in the morning, dealing with things so overwrought that he didn’t even notice the system’s many notifications. he took the opportunity to review them in the morning.
The first was the change in status. All the minor identities in the military and government of Shandu were now unified into one line, [ Supreme Commander of Shandu ].
[ supreme commander of shandu ]: the official leader of shandu, the highest leader of politics and military, and the will of shandu.
he was the commander-in-chief of the four armies, the highest spokesperson, and the leader of the special city of shadu with a population of 45 million.
Next was the change in Link’s influence. It went from 10 points to 12 points. Now, everyone in the surrounding satellite cities, towns, and villages knew about it.
12 points. this was the maximum points he could reach for a single city. if link wanted to expand his influence, he would have to expand it to the entire wasteland. On the other hand, the upper limit of a planet’s top influence was 15 points, and the only person who had achieved it was the wasteland singer, ally.
Other than influence, link had also gained another specialty after becoming the Supreme Commander of the Shudu city-the will of the Shudu city. The people of the Shudu city’s unyielding will could be fully reflected in link.
[ will of Sand City ]: health points +2000, energy points +500, charm points +10
After looking at the attributes interface, link entered the missions interface.
Since he had become the Supreme Commander of the sand City, all the difficulties the sand City was facing now appeared in the form of missions on his list.
[ main city Mission [ Sand City: eliminate Chenli ] ]
[ establishing mission hint: the machinery faith and the wasteland gang have been wreaking havoc in Shandu for a long time and are now attempting to Annex it. ] As the Supreme Commander of Shandu, you have the duty to eliminate the scourge in the desert and return the whole gale desert to the embrace of Shandu.
[ mission reward: random specialty, 1000000 experience points, activation of epic event [ heart of the desert ] ]
A main city Mission, Link’s new mission type.
It was a quest that would only be available in the later stages of the game when the player occupied a small planet or became a city Lord or the leader of a force. After completing the quest, a special event would be activated.
Due to the harsh requirements to become the leader of a faction, the complicated quest lines, and the high difficulty of the quests, very few players completed them.
Link remembered that in his previous life, after entering the universe, this person was doing a proxy mission on a planet. He accidentally activated a special mission to lead the slaves against tyranny. In the end, he was unanimously chosen as the leader by the slaves on the planet and was given the title [ slave Liberator ].
Link looked through the system again but did not find any new records.
As soon as he shut down the system, link saw the water in the teacup on the table rippling outward. The earth was shaking.
He got up and walked to the balcony. Looking out, a dark mass of creatures had appeared in the Gobi Desert. They were clearly divided into two groups and were rushing towards the weeping Valley.
