Bania nodded solemnly. “I am not joking. They are all numbers that have been repeatedly confirmed. My subordinates can still count the numbers within a hundred.”

“Captain Bania, please don’t be angry. I don’t mean anything by it. It’s just that the casualty rate is really too low.”

“Yes, the casualty rate is really too low. It’s so low that it’s terrifying.”

“Among the fourteen Emergency Response Teams, the one with the lowest casualty rate is the 14th Emergency Response Team. However, the mission that they accepted is the most difficult one.”

…

“Our current problem is how to reward Lugh. If we really calculate it based on battle merits, his military rank should be raised by one level,” Bania said as he twirled his hair. “The problem is that he’s really too young now.”

“17 years old, f*ck,” a military high-ranking official directly cursed.

“This age is indeed a little too young.”

“If we raise his military ranks again, he will almost be on par with us.”

“But we can’t not give him a reward. We can’t let him be disappointed, right?” One of the higher-ups of the military said helplessly. “Many people in the military know about Lugh’s mission. The entire Northern Guardians knows about it. We have to make a show of it.”

“Age is indeed a problem… But why should we worry about age?” A higher-up of the military laughed and said, “Anyway, we can’t appoint a Lieutenant Colonel rank officer. We need the approval of the General Military Department to appoint a Lieutenant Colonel Rank. Let the General Military Department judge it. If the General Military Department thinks it’s okay, then it’s okay.”

“There’s nothing to say about Lugh’s contribution. Report it honestly and I’ll personally recommend it.” Paul nodded and said, “Even if we fail this time, we’ll definitely succeed next time.”

“As for the rest, Lugh and the others will receive a special merit once. Turner, Daler, Charles, and Gaden will receive a first-cla.s.s individual merit once. Gary and Lucy will receive a second-cla.s.s individual merit once. The 14th emergency team will receive a second-cla.s.s collective merit once.” Bania recited once and asked, “What do you think?”

“No objections.”

“Yes.”

“Approved.”

…

“In addition to this operation, Lugh has already completely destroyed the Beast G.o.d Cult’s plan to come to the Southwest twice.” Paul smiled. “Even if I personally led the team, it would be impossible for me to do better than him. His contribution is qualified to receive special merit.”

“General Paul is too modest. There are specialties in the industry. It’s because Lugh’s investigative ability is too outstanding. It shouldn’t be too much to say that the Southwest Military is number one.”

“That’s right. General Paul is the strongest person in our Southwest.”

…

“Alright, stop talking.” General Paul waved his hand. If he didn’t stop them, these people would probably continue to suck up to him endlessly.

“However, Lugh has eliminated a huge hidden danger for our Southwest… With Lugh around, to be honest, I don’t want to worry about the Beast G.o.d Cult anymore.”

The higher-ups of the Southwest Army nodded silently.

If the Beast G.o.d Cult really dared to continue to develop in the Southwest, it would be enough if they sent Lugh and gave him enough bodyguards and endurance.

After this operation, Lugh had already demonstrated his powerful abilities.

“Raise Lugh’s treatment to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.” General Paul leaned against the chair and said in a low voice, “Also, I seem to have heard that Kersey has recovered and left the hospital?”

“Yes, Kersey’s body has indeed recovered. However, the doctor also said that he doesn’t have many years left to live. His fighting strength has also decreased greatly.”

A senior officer of the military said with a heavy tone, “Kersey’s family also hopes that he can retire. However, Kersey’s temper is really stubborn. He has already returned today and is now drinking tea in my office. He directly told me that he is returning to the military. Fortunately, there is a meeting today, so I ran away. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to hold on. I think General Paul should go and persuade him.”

“How old is Kersey this year? He seems to be much older than me, right?” General Paul rubbed his face. “When I first joined the army, he was still my instructor.”

General Paul remembered that he had eaten a few of Kersey’s melon seeds at that time.

But of course, he would not mention such things.

“According to the files, Kersey is now 173 years old,” a senior officer with eyes said carefully. “He joined the army at 15 years old. He has a total of 168 years in the army. He is the oldest senior in our Southwest Military.”

“Kersey’s matter…” Paul’s index finger gently pressed on the conference table rhythmically. He was so stuffed that he almost died. No one said anything.

A minute later, he opened his mouth and said, “Today’s meeting is over. I will handle Kersey’s matter. You invite him here.”.

“Yes, General Paul.”

When the senior officer heard that Paul was going to take over, he immediately became happy.

It was really because that person was too difficult to deal with. He could not afford to offend him.

After the meeting ended, a thin and small old man wearing a military uniform with a serious expression pushed open the meeting room door.

“General Paul.”

He gave General Paul a standard military salute.

Kersey had lost a few teeth, and even his words were a little drafty.

“Sit.”

“Okay.”

Kersey sat opposite Paul.

Kersey had just recovered from a serious injury. He was extremely thin, and his military uniform couldn’t even hold up. He looked a little comical.

However, no one in the military who had seen Kersey could laugh.

Paul said, “I heard that you’re returning to the military?”

“Yes, I’ve already recovered.”

“But your current physical condition is no longer suitable for an intense battle.”

Kersey insisted, “General Paul, I can continue to fight. As long as I’m alive, I want to continue fighting.”

Facing a Southwest Military Department General Paul, Kersey did not give in at all.

Looking at Kersey’s determined and stubborn gaze, Paul chose to compromise.

“Okay, I agree to your request to return to the Military Department.”

“Thank you, General Paul.”

“It just so happens that there is a very important matter on the agenda of this high-level meeting. We need a strong, experienced, and absolutely loyal expert to oversee it.”

“I just so happen to be one.” Kersey’s wrinkled face was smiling like a chrysanthemum. “General Paul, send me up.”

“I heard that you’ve already recovered and left the hospital. I also feel that this important task will be handed over to you.”

“I obey the orders of the military.”

“Are you sure?”

Kersery shouted loudly, “General Paul, please don’t doubt my loyalty.”

“Alright.” Paul nodded. “This is the case. Have you heard of Lugh?”

“I have. He is a very outstanding junior.” Kersey laughed. “I heard that he killed those swindlers of the Beast G.o.d Cult until they cried for their parents in the north. He is quite a good young man. I heard that he is only seventeen years old now.”

“Yes, he is only fifteen years old now. He is the number one genius in the Southwest. He is a Platinum-level expert, a Major, and the Captain of the 14th emergency team.”

“Impressive.”

“Do you think he’s important to our Southwest Military?”

“Of course he’s important. In terms of potential and ability, he should be the number one person in the Southwest, right?” Kersey said. “I’ve lived for more than a hundred years, but I’ve never seen such an outstanding young man…”

“We received a tip-off that because of Lugh, the Beast G.o.d Cult and the Black Feather Organization suffered a great loss. They might want to target Lugh.”

If Paul said there was a tip-off, then there was a tip-off.

Kersey nodded. “That bunch of b*stards would definitely do that. We really have to protect Lugh well.”

“Lugh spends most of his time in the emergency team. Even if he goes out, he’ll bring a lot of experts with him. His safety is guaranteed, but Lugh is also a Beast Master. Ee can’t do too much to him.”

“Our military is worried about the safety of Lugh’s family right now,” Paul said. “If his family is kidnapped or killed, our Southwest Military will be put on the defensive. This genius could very well be destroyed.”

“Unfortunately, you’re one of the most experienced and powerful warriors in the southwest military. Our Southwest Military can rest a.s.sured that you’re loyal,” Paul said as he stood up from his seat. “So, I’ve decided to hand over the very important task of protecting Lugh’s family to you.”

Kersey looked at Paul in a daze. “General Paul, isn’t it a little overkill for you to ask me to protect the Lugh’s family?”

“The ability that Lugh has displayed is completely comparable to three Emergency Response Teams. Moreover, he is still growing rapidly.”

Paul’s tone was serious as he said, “To put it bluntly, if I had to choose between you and Lugh, I would choose Lugh without hesitation. He is more valuable than you. I will send you to protect his family and let him have no worries. Is there a problem?”
