Chapter 669
Is the 2nd Legion Poor?
Chapter 669 The Second Legion is Poor?
The thin slices of beef cooked in just a few seconds. Dipped in the sauce and put in the mouth, even someone as composed as Marshal Shi couldn't help but have his eyes light up because of the smooth and tender texture of the beef.
"Delicious!" Shi Sijin praised without reservation.
His words seemed to ignite a signal, and praises poured in from all directions.
The slightly tense atmosphere caused by Marshal Shi's arrival was instantly dispelled by the enthusiastic sounds, and the atmosphere became relaxed.
The crowd visibly relaxed, and joyful laughter filled the air.
Marshal Shi was drawn by the laughter and looked up. What met his eyes were one after another smiling faces full of ease and joy.
Even the team members he brought were all wearing the same smiling faces.
Such a vibrant smile was something he had never seen in his legion before.
One person's hearty laughter can often bring a smile to the faces of a group of people.
The sight of so many people laughing together was like a spark thrown into an ocean of joy, instantly igniting the emotions of the entire open space, making even the air seem to leap and dance lightly.
Marshal Shi was also infected by the joy of the crowd. His smiling eyes softened even more, and the warmth in his eyes almost overflowed. The meat in his mouth seemed to taste even better.
Just as the Second Army Corps was happily enjoying hot pot, in the Seventh Army Corps' medical department, Sun Yuxin slapped Lieutenant Jiang across the face. "Smack!"
"Who do you think you are, ordering me here? Get out of here, all of you!" Sun Yuxin angrily pointed at Deputy Commander Jiang and cursed.
Over the past few days, one person after another has come to have her purified, and considering that they have indeed protected her, she agreed.
But now they're never going to stop, are they? A-level ability users are barely acceptable, but now they actually want her to perform purification on this group of B-level ability users. A bunch of low-level people, do they even deserve her help?
The slap on the face of the adjutant Jiang didn't actually hurt much. After all, Sun Yuxin was a purified ability user, and no matter how strong her hand was, it was limited. Not even a red mark was left.
To be slapped in front of so many people and told to "get lost" while not daring to show any anger—he had completely lost face.
With a livid face, Lieutenant Jiang took a deep breath to suppress his anger, forced a stiff smile, and said, "Okay, Master Sun, I'll take them away first."
"Get out of here!" Sun Yuxin angrily lowered her raised hand.
"See you next time, Purifier Sun." Lieutenant Jiang's smile remained stiff as he nodded to her, waved to the soldiers waiting for purification, and then turned to leave.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers who had been standing quietly to the side, trying to make themselves as inconspicuous as possible, immediately turned around and followed.
Regardless of the fact that this was the Seventh Legion's medical department, it was Sun Yuxin, who didn't want to perform purification on the soldiers, who should have left at this time.
"Wait!" Sun Yuxin suddenly called out as if she remembered something.
Lieutenant Jiang knew she was calling him, so he took a deep breath, stopped, turned around, and asked with that stiff smile still on his face, "Is there anything else you need, Master Sun?"
"Has Jiang Ci contacted me?" Sun Yuxin looked at Deputy Commander Jiang with suspicion, her expression clearly indicating that she suspected he was hiding the fact that Jiang Ci had contacted her.
"The Seventh Legion has so many people waiting for her to purify them, there's no reason why the Second Legion wouldn't need her too," Sun Yuxin thought to herself.
"No, Lieutenant General Jiang has not contacted us to look for you, and Marshal Shi has not inquired about your situation either," said Adjutant Jiang.
"Impossible!" Unfortunately, Sun Yuxin clearly didn't believe it. She glared at him angrily and said, "You must be afraid that I'll go to the Second Legion, so you're saying this on purpose. Jiang Ci couldn't possibly not be looking for me!"
As a dignified S-rank purification ability user, how could Jiang Ci not come to her for purification? The adjutant was speechless, inwardly cursing: "She doesn't believe me even if I tell her, so why is she asking me? And now I'm being suspected of deliberately concealing something—what bad luck!"
Standing not far behind Sun Yuxin, Bao Zhiyuan glanced at Deputy Commander Jiang with a dark expression, fearing that he might actually reveal that Jiang Ci had contacted Sun Yuxin.
Seeing that Lieutenant Jiang remained silent, Sun Yuxin assumed she had guessed correctly and immediately raised her voice, scolding, "You're all doing very well, actually..."
"Lieutenant General Jiang really didn't contact us to look for you." Seeing that Sun Yuxin's anger was about to affect the entire army, Lieutenant General Jiang dared not remain silent any longer and quickly explained, "If you don't believe me, you can ask our general. As far as I know, Lieutenant General Jiang really didn't contact us."
He had no choice but to pass this hot potato to the general to handle.
"Hmph, go ahead and ask! I'll go right now!" Sun Yuxin said, and started walking towards the gate.
Bao Zhiyuan followed her with a dark expression.
After watching the two men walk away, Lieutenant Jiang's tense face finally relaxed.
He turned to face the soldiers and said with a hint of regret, "Since Purifier Sun is unwilling to perform purification for you, then you'll just have to wait for the purification specialist from the medical department."
The soldiers exchanged glances and replied in somewhat unison, "Yes, sir."
Looking at the soldiers of the Seventh Army Corps before him, Lieutenant Jiang's eyes were deep and unfathomable, as if he were plotting something.
On the side of the Second Army Corps.
When the hot pot was halfway through, the most lively part of the gathering, the soldiers' fun competition, finally arrived.
Cheers, shouts, and applause rang out one after another. Marshal Shi looked at the energetic soldiers in front of him and felt increasingly happy.
When Lieutenant Chen asked if the team that had come with him could also join the competition, Marshal Shi nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Whether they win or lose, the important thing is that they have fun. He wants to see if their medical examination data will change afterward.
"Hmm, Aci, I suppose your Second Legion isn't short of funds." Marshal Shi, who had been watching the soldiers playing around, suddenly looked at Jiang Ci sitting next to him and said.
The moment the word "funding" left his lips, Jiang Ci and Shi Sijin looked up at him almost simultaneously.
"How could that be?" Jiang Ci immediately denied, his tone tinged with helplessness. "To be honest, our legion still owes several debts."
The white, crystalline cores are the most numerous, but there's no need to tell Marshal Shi this directly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Sijin's gaze, which had been fixed on Marshal Shi's face, instantly turned to him, her eyes clearly displaying two words: Really?
Shi Sijin couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that bad? She hadn't even paid back the food expenses she owed before. If he really needed money, wasn't it too much for her to keep owing him like this?
Bai Mianmian also looked at Jiang Ci with surprise. Is the Second Legion really that poor?
But they were very generous when they gave her the crystal core, and I didn't see anyone objecting.
"Do you think I'd believe that?" Marshal Shi raised an eyebrow, his tone carrying a hint of knowing mockery.
They eat zero-pollution food every meal, and they can still provide so much zero-pollution food for everyone to feast on. They must have quite a large food inventory.
There are also zero-pollution crystal cores that can be obtained by applying.
He found it quite difficult to convince himself that the Second Legion was poor.
