Chapter 902 - Gratitude Tokens (1/2)

“Wait!” Ren Xiaosu suddenly turned around as he was leaving.

Next to him, Yang Xiaojin was taken aback. “What’s the matter? Are you wondering why no one is chasing after us?”

“No,” Ren Xiaosu said, “it’s only reasonable that they aren’t chasing after us. P5092 has accepted full blame in order to secure the Pyro Company’s future victory, so who would want their commander to go to jail over such an unfortunate matter? The entire Pyro Company knows that he’s actually a hero and not a criminal.”

“Then what’s wrong?” Yang Xiaojin wondered.

“Gratitude!” Ren Xiaosu looked back at the Pyro Company’s base in the distance and said firmly, “The 7th Division hasn’t thanked me yet!”

Yang Xiaojin was speechless.

In Ren Xiaosu’s opinion, he could forget about the other divisions’ gratitude since he did not personally save them. Even if he were to ask them to thank him, it might not be sincere.

But the 7th Division was different since he had risked his life to save them. Under such circumstances, how could he possibly give up on earning those gratitude tokens and leave?

At this moment, the 7th Division’s commander, P5067, had just received news that P5092 had been abducted.

On the other end of the line was the voice of the 1st Division’s commander, “It’s actually a good thing that P5092 was taken away. If he doesn’t leave, he’ll have to spend more than ten years in prison. No one wants to see that happen. When he told us not to worry, we should’ve known that he was going to bear all the responsibility by himself.”

P5067 sighed and said, “That’s right, we owe him too much. After this war is over, I won’t have the dignity to continue being a division commander. I won’t even be able to walk with my head held high in front of my own soldiers when I used the freedom of another to secure my future.”

“I heard that the person who abducted him also participated in this battle. I think he’s the one from the Northwest?” the 1st Division’s commander asked.

“Yes, it’s White Mask from the Northwest,” P5067 confirmed. “When 7th Division got ambushed by the barbarians in the battle, he was the one who saved us. Speaking of which, you might not believe it, but he was still in the mood to pick his ears when facing more than several thousand barbarians of the expeditionary army. If I didn’t see it with my own eyes, it would be very difficult for me to imagine that such a powerful figure has already appeared in the world of supernatural beings. It’s no wonder he’s as famous as the Demon Whisperer. Moreover, he used some unknown method to kill thousands of barbarians later. How extremely fearsome.”

“Fortunately, he’s from the Northwest, so we don’t have to make an enemy out of him. However, this is probably the first time someone’s dared to abduct a person from our Pyro Company’s base. If word gets out, he’l probably become known as the best kidnapper in the world,” the 1st Division’s commander said.

P5067 nodded and said, “Yes, our goal is actually the same as the Northwest.”

But at this moment, a staff officer suddenly walked hesitantly into P5067’s command center. P5067 did not hang up. He wondered, “What’s the matter? Didn’t I tell you to go and rest?”

The staff officer said, “It’s like this, someone’s looking for you outside.”

“Who is it?” P5067 asked. He wondered who would come looking for him at a time like this.

The staff officer answered, “It’s the person who saved us on the battlefield.”

“Eh?” P5067 gasped in shock and nearly choked.

Over the phone, the 1st Division’s commander’s voice rang out, “Is someone looking for you?”

“Yes,” P5067 said.

“Who is it?”

“A kidnapper…”

With that, P5067 hung up and rushed outside. Many soldiers had already gathered at the entrance of the military base to watch. P5067 frowned at the soldiers and said, “What are you all looking at? Disperse.”

“Don’t go.” Ren Xiaosu’s voice rang out, “I was just looking for them.”
