Chapter 292 A Gift from Team Asuka
Although Bei Yunxing is ruled by an empress, it shares similarities with the Western aristocratic system.
Except for the First Military District, which requires the Empress's personal authorization, commanders of other districts can be nominated by females with distinguished military achievements and selected through open competition, provided they meet the qualifications.
Sang Qing, an S-level healer, has achieved accomplishments comparable to those of Duke Carly in just over a year.
The vacancy in the position of head of the southern part of the third district gave Sang Qing a great opportunity.
Those who were fighting tooth and nail for the position vacated by Huo Mingyang never expected that Sang Qing would interfere.
Whether it's prestige, strength, or achievements, in every aspect, he is absolutely dominant, and no one dares to question him.
At the same time, an order was issued to the Third District—to clear the southern fog forest.
The attack caught everyone off guard, and even Kuskuli looked serious.
It's not cleaning, it's erasing.
The 15th district of the Southern Fog Forest is the most dangerous polluted area. The deepest I've ever been was only the sixth or seventh layer. I don't know what the dangers are like within the seventh layer.
Completely eradicating a contaminated area is extremely difficult, even with several S-level healers leading the team simultaneously.
Moreover, she was a commander who had just taken over the third district.
Sang Qing knew that this was Queen Phil's suppression, and also a test she had to face.
If she can't even complete the first mission, what face does she have to sit in the commander's position?
"Okay, I'll go."
Several females from headquarters broke out in a cold sweat under Sang Qing's gaze, thinking to themselves that she was indeed a female with phoenix blood. After completing their mission, they quickly made excuses and slipped away.
Sang Qing watched their departing figures and chuckled lightly.
Queen Phil really thinks highly of her.
Sang Qing turned her head and looked at the special forces team.
Now that things have come to this, she has no choice but to go to the Southern Fog Forest.
She went to the detention center today to ask if the special forces would be willing to be incorporated into her Third District's direct forces, but she didn't expect the mission to come so quickly.
This was a perilous mission, more dangerous than any before, and even she couldn't guarantee she could bring them back safely.
But it was too late; she had to go to the southern fog forest.
She needs to be able to counter the Empress's power in order to avoid being forced or constrained, and to protect herself and those she wants to protect.
Everyone in the shelter understood what it meant that their healer had rejected the First District Commander's offer of service but had ended up in this position.
So they understand with just a glance, and no matter what happens, they will choose to protect their healer.
It's just the Southern Mirage Forest, isn't it? It's not like I haven't been there before.
"What's there to be afraid of? Those who have rolled over the edge of death have nothing to fear anymore." Kunxi's bloodshot eyes were dark and his tone was cold and arrogant. "At worst, we can let those brainless idiots lead the charge. Isn't Manju incredibly ferocious and unfortunately, he didn't die? And that fatheaded fish Omia too..."
Omia, who had just returned to the shelter, interrupted, "The captain is the captain, I didn't offend any of you."
"Your brain is full of water! Have you forgotten how our captain beat you to the ground last time? Tsk, you can't beat our captain, so you slander him." The other orcs from the Water Beast Team retorted in dissatisfaction.
Kunxi alone stirred up the dissatisfaction of everyone in the Aquatic Team, while Claire and Cloud Leopard, along with other beastmen from the Lion and Tiger Team, fanned the flames from the sidelines.
The orcs from the Flying Birds team were much more composed, sincerely stating, "We are willing to follow the Healer forever, no matter how far or difficult the journey, we will accompany you to see it all." "You think this is a trip? Far and wide? I hate you bunch of pretentious artsy types with chicken feathers stuck in your hair." The Serpent Lizards team, having inherited Kunxi's true skills, attacked indiscriminately, and scoffed disdainfully, also quickly pledging their loyalty to Sang Qing.
The Lions and Tigers were not to be outdone, displaying an attitude of fearlessness: "The Lions and Tigers are invincible, let's just go for it."
Behind their playful smiles, Sang Qing could feel their unwavering determination and refusal to back down, and he was moved. "Okay, then the special forces team will be incorporated into the Third District and will still be my direct subordinate unit."
Everyone stood at attention and saluted, their spirits soaring. "Yes, sir!"
Sang Qing turned the ring on her hand that symbolized her commander status, her face grave. She would do her best to bring them back safely.
Everyone could see that Sang Qing was in a bad mood. The orcs of the Flying Bird Team exchanged glances and sent Yi Feng, who was best at livening up the atmosphere, forward.
Yi Feng grinned, head held high, and strode confidently toward Sang Qing. "Healer, our Flying Bird Team has prepared a surprise for you. We guarantee you'll be amazed when you see it."
"Oh? What surprise?" Sang Qing raised an eyebrow and looked at Bai Xiao beside her.
Bai Xiao smiled faintly, but there was a hint of helplessness in her smile.
Sang Qing was quite curious about this surprise. Could it be something that would completely shock her?
Seeing this, Yi Feng said, "The captain also participated. This surprise represents the sentiments of everyone on our team. Of course, no one can be left out."
Guided by the Flying Birds team, Sang Qing arrived at their territory, and the other teams naturally followed out of curiosity.
An object covered tightly with red velvet cloth was carried up by four or five orcs from the Flying Bird Team. Yi Feng smiled mysteriously and, under Sang Qing's gaze, unveiled the curtain, accompanied by a man-made sound effect of "ding ding ding ding~".
When a pair of enormous, multicolored wings were revealed before Sang Qing, it wasn't exactly a shock, but rather a moment of utter astonishment.
Her wings were covered with feathers of various colors, so intricate and gorgeous that they momentarily dulled her sense of color.
The wings are fixed in place with an iron frame, and when folded together, they form a heart shape.
“Healer, I think your throne is missing a pair of ornaments. We have specially adjusted the size so that they can be set in perfectly, so that you will remember us every time you return to the command room.”
“Each feather represents the orcs of our Flying Birds Team. It is a gift we collectively present to you. We also congratulate you on becoming the commander of the Third District. May you always fly freely.”
Yi Feng recited the poem with great emotion, as if he were reciting a love poem.
Around them, the members of the Flying Bird Team looked at Sang Qing expectantly.
Sang Qing imagined a pair of colorful wings behind a serious workstation, and her lips twitched. It was as extravagant and fatally romantic as ever.
Freedom, soaring—what a beautiful wish.
Each feather, with its unique color and texture, represents the beastmen's most sincere blessings.
Sang Qing reached out and stroked the soft feathers, smiling. "Thank you, I like them very much."
Seeing Sang Qing smile, the members of the Flying Bird Team immediately cheered up and chattered around Sang Qing, introducing which feather was theirs.
Gray, white, blue, patterned, and at the very center, of course, are Bai Xiaoyi and his group.
The Lion Tiger Team, the Snake Lizard Team, and others who came with them were grinding their teeth in frustration.
Damn it, how could they not have thought of that? Those arrogant birds beat them to it.
Everyone knows that bird-beast people's feathers cannot be given away casually, yet they still use this method to smuggle their own goods.
No, they need to prepare one too.
