106: Embark on the journey and get a mecha as a gift!
Changle Airport.
Because of the close proximity and not having to wait for the bureau to coordinate and organize a team departure, Comrade Yang Dian was the first to arrive.
Of course, he wasn't the last.
After waiting for a short while in the exclusive waiting lounge, colleagues from the Special Administration Bureau and Martial Artists from the Martial Security Bureau arrived together.
The higher-ups were making a big move, and the local authorities didn't hold back either.
All members of the Special Administration Bureau's Second, Third, Fifth, and Seventh Squads were present.
The Martial Security Bureau, with a total strength of less than 500 people, dispatched two large brigades, which meant 20 squads, totaling 306 people.
In short, to answer the call from above, they dispatched more than half of their Awakened combat power this time.
As more than 300 Martial Artists and Awakened, dressed in neat uniforms and clearly possessing a different spirit from ordinary people, walked into the airport waiting lounge, the passengers who were originally waiting in their seats subconsciously stood up.
"Wow, what handsome soldiers!"
"What soldiers? Look closely at the insignia on their uniforms; they're from the Martial Security Bureau!"
"Aren't Wuan Bureau members soldiers? Is there a problem with me calling them soldiers?"
"It seems fine, but it also seems a bit problematic."
"What's the problem?"
"Take out your phone and browse Douyin; people at various airports across the country have filmed large numbers of Martial Security Bureau members entering airports. I'm wondering if something big has happened."
"Really? But if something really big happened, shouldn't the organization dispatch the army first? Why would they dispatch Wuan Bureau?"
"I'm not sure, but I saw on Douyin that Wuan Bureau members aren't ordinary people; it seems they've all practiced ancient martial arts."
"Heh, does anyone still believe in ancient martial arts these days?"
"I'm also a bit puzzled, but they speak so earnestly, explaining the Realm and strength so clearly, it doesn't seem fake..."
Amidst the whispers, the people from the Special Administration Bureau and the Martial Security Bureau walked into the waiting lounge without batting an eye.
Seeing Comrade Yang Dian holding his phone and browsing videos, Lin Mo immediately walked up to him:
"Are you sure you want to go to Chengdu?"
Comrade Yang Dian put down his phone:
"Didn't the higher-ups call for us to go to Chengdu for support?"
"I have some strength and ability, so of course I should answer the call from above."
After replying to Lin Mo, Comrade Yang Dian's thoughts returned to the video he saw while browsing Douyin.
'As the time approaches to announce Qi Revival and universal martial arts practice, the higher-ups are less and less inclined to keep it a secret.'
'They are even secretly fanning the flames, gradually revealing information about ancient martial arts and the extraordinary...'
As he thought, looking at Lin Mo and Shi Sheng, whose expressions were somewhat complex, Comrade Yang Dian suddenly realized:
"What, Captain, are you and Brother Shi not going?"
Lin Mo nodded and exhaled:
"Shi Sheng and I have a mission; we cannot leave Min River."
Comrade Yang Dian looked at Lin Mo and Shi Sheng in surprise.
They had been together for so long, if not living under the same roof every day, then close to it.
He hadn't expected Lin Mo and Shi Sheng to have a mission he didn't know about.
However, after a moment's thought, he dismissed the matter.
If they didn't tell him, they must have their reasons.
Just like him, hadn't he also kept silent about the true nature of his talent and the Plum Tree in his backyard that could grow heaven and earth treasures plum blossom?
Everyone has their secrets; there's no need to pry.
So Comrade Yang Dian patted his chest:
"Captain, rest assured, I will uphold the prestige of our Seventh Squad."
Lin Mo was still a bit worried.
Others were going in teams for support, and their teams consisted of old comrades who had fought together for years, even decades.
Comrades who could entrust their backs to each other, who could take bullets for each other.
But what about Comrade Yang Dian?
He was going alone for support.
Although they were from the same place, if danger truly arose, others might not risk their lives to save him.
"I know your strength has improved quickly, and the director even gave you his super weapon quota, which greatly enhanced your strength."
"But one cannot be blindly overconfident in oneself."
"Give me the lowdown, including the super weapon, how strong are you now?"
Comrade Yang Dian extended his hand, and Qi Blood Smoke Generation permeated his palm, transforming into smoke and clouds between his five fingers:
"My martial arts Realm has already reached Qi Blood Smoke Generation."
"Including the super weapon, if I really fought with my life, cutting from the east end of the village to the west end wouldn't be a big problem."
Lin Mo certainly hadn't expected Comrade Yang Dian's strength to improve so rapidly.
But hearing his words, he couldn't help but give him a look of disdain:
"Still cutting from the east end of the village to the west end, look at how capable you think you are."
Although he said that, after learning of Comrade Yang Dian's strength, his worries lessened somewhat.
"In principle, the bureau doesn't allow you to go alone for support."
"After all, it's too dangerous."
"But your personal will is strong, and you possess strength far exceeding ordinary people, so we cannot stop you."
Saying that, Lin Mo stepped back and saluted Comrade Yang Dian:
"Return safely."
Comrade Yang Dian stood at attention and returned the salute:
"I guarantee a safe return."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a military officer, wearing a military uniform with one bar and three stars on his shoulder, jogged into the waiting lounge.
Seeing everyone's gaze fall upon him, he immediately stopped at the entrance and saluted everyone:
"The Yun-35 transport aircraft has arrived at the airport."
Understanding the implication, everyone instantly stood up, formed an orderly queue, and followed him towards the airport.
Comrade Yang Dian turned his head and waved to Lin Mo and Shi Sheng:
"Captain, Brother Shi, I'm off."
Lin Mo nodded earnestly:
"Take good care of yourself there; you don't need to worry about things here."
"Before you return, Shi Sheng and I will patrol your village once every day."
Comrade Yang Dian didn't refuse this kind offer.
"Then thank you, Captain."
Seeing that the others had already jogged out of the waiting lounge, Comrade Yang Dian waved to the two again:
"I'm going!"
With that, he ran out of the waiting lounge without looking back, following the team and jogging into the transport aircraft.
As soon as he entered the cabin, an idle robotic arm extended, first taking out Comrade Yang Dian's communication device and the pistol holstered at his waist, then lifting pieces of armor and attaching them to him.
Chest plate, arm guards, mechanical gloves, thigh and shin guards.
Then the robotic arm lifted Comrade Yang Dian's body and put on his combat boots.
Finally, it also placed a multi-functional tactical helmet on him.
In a few blinks of an eye, Comrade Yang Dian was fully armed, transformed into a futuristic mechanical warrior.
Extending his hands, Comrade Yang Dian looked at the equipment on him with some bewilderment.
The higher-ups didn't say anything about sending a mech upon arrival?
Amidst his confusion, Comrade Yang Dian subconsciously took the solid plasma lightsaber and a super sci-fi energy gun that the robotic arm handed to him.
Before he could ask, the eyepiece on his tactical helmet suddenly lit up.
A mechanical voice then entered Comrade Yang Dian's ear through the headset.
"Greetings, Comrade Yang Dian, Second-Level Peacekeeper of the Special Administration Bureau."
"I am Unit-01 Artificial Intelligence - Zero, and I will fight alongside you!"
