During the next week, Tang Wulin learned all types of information about the abyss under Long Yuxue's tutelage.
An entirely different race from another plane was involved here, so there were many things that he had to learn. For example, he had to learn about the species in this race, their innate abilities, and their battle styles, as well as all of the important details about battling in the abyssal pa.s.sageway.
However, this type of special training was extremely easy for Tang Wulin, and with his memory and comprehension abilities, he was able to absorb all of this knowledge very quickly.
Much to Long Yuxue's surprise, not only was Tang Wulin freakishly strong and extremely handsome, his thought processes were also very clear. He could always immediately commit everything she said to memory and even make deductions on his own, as well as raise some questions that even she had never considered before. There were some things that she had to consult her father about before being able to provide him with the correct answer.
During this week, the two of them also became quite familiar with one another. At the same time, Tang Wulin also gained a better understanding of the current situation of the Blood G.o.d Legion.
The Blood G.o.d Legion was referred to as a legion, but it actually only had enough soldiers to fill two divisions. One of them was known as the Blood Division, which entailed an unyielding spirit and the willingness to fight until the very last drop of their blood ran out. They were mainly responsible for direct battle against the abyssal creatures, and the commander of the Blood Division was Xu Weitao.
The other division was the Divine Division, which consisted of all of the special forces. These included mecha battalions, as well as personnel who were responsible for handling heavy artillery, defenses, and other areas of a.s.sistance.
Even though there were only two divisions in the entire legion, each of the divisions had five corps, so they could be considered to be independent divisions. Tang Wulin had seen very few people in this base, but in reality, the entire Blood G.o.d Legion had over 25,000 people if all of the soldiers and logistical personnel were taken into account. They didn't have as many people as a standard legion, but all of them were the elite of the elite.
Normally speaking, major legions like the Northesea Legion were each comprised of around 100,000 people. The fact that the Blood G.o.d Legion was known as a legion even with only 25,000 members was a testament to both their importance and combat abilities.
Long Yuxue had told Tang Wulin in a very proud manner that if the Blood G.o.d Legion wanted to, it could definitely demolish any other legion in the federation with ease.
The harsh conditions and frequent battles here had honed the soldiers of the legion to be truly fearsome beings.
The special service department that Tang Wulin had been a.s.signed to was part of the Divine Division, but it wasn't under the jurisdiction of any of the five corps and answered directly to the control center. They worked alongside the legion's research department, and they would often undertake missions that couldn't be completed by battle units. Their duties were more dangerous in nature, so only the best of the best were distributed to the special service department.
”You've basically mastered all of the knowledge we currently have about abyssal creatures, and everything else will come to you through practical combat. During the rest of your special training, I'll take you to look at the battle tactics employed by our battle units. Even though you're currently a member of our special service department, you have to familiarize yourself with those tactics as well because you'll be joining a battle unit sooner or later. Learning about these things early on will be beneficial to your future development in this legion,” Long Yuxue said to Tang Wulin.
”Alright, when do we go?” Tang Wulin asked in an eager manner.
Long Yuxue replied, ”We'll go tomorrow. By the way, how's your forging room coming along? You better not disappoint me; I've invested my entire savings on you.”
Regular practice was very important in any craft; as a blacksmith, it would be extremely detrimental to Tang Wulin if he couldn't practice just because he'd joined the military. However, it was not easy to find a forging room here. The Blood G.o.d Legion was situated deep within the Skyend Mountain Ranges, where all resources were extremely scarce. There were only three forging rooms in the legion, and all of them were reserved for the blacksmiths, mostly for mecha repair and tasks of that nature.
Tang Wulin had rather high requirements for his forging room. For example, he wanted the best forging bench, as well as all various types of support tools and a large enough s.p.a.ce for him to operate. It was a good thing that he was carrying a good supply of uncommon metals.
It was undoubtedly the case that the Blood G.o.d Legion wouldn't provide him with all of these things when he didn't have any accolades to his name, so he could only turn to this superior for his help.
