1174 This Is An Excellent Way Of Boasting
Wang Teng had never used the devil transformation, mainly because he didn't have the chance.
Once he activated this skill, his ability would rise by a few levels, but the pressure would be immense too. He wouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary.
Besides, this was a skill of the dark apparitions. He couldn't use it randomly. If not, others might think he was a dark apparition.
Wang Teng shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Either way, he got good gains in this round.
"We should leave." Wang Teng waved his hand, and the Meteorite Shower Domain dispersed gradually, revealing the sky outside.
"Major Wang Teng, don't worry. Your efforts will be reported to the empire. No one can snatch the merits from you. You can leave peacefully," Darte glanced at Wang Teng in pity and said in a low voice.
So what if he was a talent? He was still contaminated by the devil ovum.
Darte sighed in his heart.
They got the devil ovum but lost a genius. He wondered if this was a good or bad thing.
Peggy and the others looked at Wang Teng in sorrow as if he was going to pass away soon.
"Major Wang Teng, you're our hero!" Peggy said.
"To our hero!" General Darte saluted Wang Teng.
The others followed suit and saluted him in unison.
Wang Teng: …
This was the first time he enjoyed the treatment of a hero.
But, he wasn't happy.
Hero your head!
What do you mean by I can leave peacefully?
Did they think that he was about to die?
Wang Teng rolled his eyes.
"Major Wang Teng…"
General Darte wanted to say something, but Wang Teng interrupted him. "Wait, General Darte, did you misunderstand something?"
"Major Wang Teng, we understand. You're an amazing talent, so you must be unwilling to leave like this. Sigh…" General Darte shook his head.
Wang Teng: I…
What do you know? You guys are the ones who don't understand the situation.
Wang Teng was so frustrated that he wanted to vomit blood. He didn't dare to let them continue the conversation, so he said hurriedly, "General Darte, do you think that I got infected by the devil ovum?"
Everyone was stunned.
"Aren't you?" General Darte asked after some hesitation.
"Do I look infected?" Wang Teng rolled his eyes angrily.
"Erm…" General Darte sized up Wang Teng carefully. He realized that there was something wrong.
Wang Teng didn't look infected at all.
Peggy and the others were astounded. An incredible thought floated into their minds: Wang Teng wasn't infected.
He managed to resist the contamination and enchantment of the devil ovum successfully.
"Alright, don't look at me like that. I'm fine," Wang Teng waved his hands and said.
He felt uncomfortable by their gazes.
"Are you sure you managed to resist the enchantment of the devil ovum?" General Darte asked in bewilderment.
"Can't I?" Wang Teng asked him back.
General Darte didn't know how to reply to him. He said a little awkwardly, "I'm not doubting you, but it's just unbelievable. No one has ever resisted the enchantment of the devil ovum at such a close distance and without any warning or defense."
"Please don't judge me based on common sense," Wang Teng replied calmly.
General Darte: …
Peggy and the others: …
This was an excellent way of boasting.
"Major Wang Teng, this is an important matter. Even if you're not infected, you'll need to undergo rounds of inspection when you go back," General Darte took a deep breath and said.
"Yes, I'll cooperate."
He was certain that his dark Force wouldn't get discovered unless he revealed it.
General Darte started to believe him a little more when he saw his confident expression.
"What should we do with the devil ovum?" Wang Teng asked.
General Darte coughed awkwardly.
"You don't have a plan yet?" Wang Teng widened his eyes and asked in surprise.
"We came in a hurry, so we haven't had a chance to come up with a plan," General Darte said in embarrassment.
Wang Teng felt speechless. "What should we do now?"
"We'll head back to the main base and seal it." General Darte said, "Fortunately, this devil ovum is still at the infant stage, so we won't get infected if we stay far away."
"That's the only way." Wang Teng nodded. He asked again, "How did you guys deal with it in the past?"
"We haven't found many devil ovums in the history of the Great Qian Empire. Most of the time, formidable martial warriors destroy them instantly. These martial warriors have to be at the eternal stage or above," General Darte said.
"Eternal-stage martial warriors!" Wang Teng exclaimed.
"Yes, the devil ovum is made by devil titans, so only eternal-stage martial warriors can destroy it," General Darte explained.
Wang Teng nodded. He stopped asking and carried the devil ovum out.
"Erm… don't get too close. I don't want to be infected by the devil ovum." General Darte took a few steps back hurriedly.
Wang Teng: …
F**k, I'm being discriminated against!
As a heaven-stage martial warrior, can you be less timid?
"There's only one spacecraft. How am I supposed to return?" Wang Teng asked helplessly.
"Don't worry. I have prepared a spacecraft. You can fly back alone." General Darte took out another spacecraft from his space ring.
Wang Teng placed the devil ovum in the trunk of the spacecraft quietly.
The trunk was able to isolate the devil ovum to a certain extent. General Darte and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, they cleared up the battlefield and placed the corpses of the dark apparitions in their space equipment before boarding the spacecraft.
The two spacecraft flew toward the main base together.
They didn't head back to the third frontline. Instead, they went straight to the main base.
Only the main base had the facilities to seal the devil ovum.
…
Half an hour later, they reached the main base successfully. The spacecraft gradually landed in the parking space.
The area had been cleared. There was no one besides a few reception personnel.
General Darte had informed the main base before they arrived and asked them to make the necessary preparations.
Wang Teng was stunned when he carried the devil ovum down.
"General Cameron!"
He didn't expect the commanding general of the base to welcome him personally.
"You did well," General Cameron praised him. He walked over and patted Wang Teng's shoulder.
There were many thoughts and feelings in his mind. This young man came to the No. 29 Defense Planet recently and had already achieved such merits. Even he made a mistake this time.
"It's nothing," Wang Teng replied.
General Cameron was stunned, not expecting such a reply from Wang Teng.
This fellow made it sound so simple. People who didn't know might think that he just solved a small matter.
General Darte and Peggy put on weird expressions.
General Cameron sized up the devil ovum. He was only half a meter from the devil ovum, but he wasn't affected. This proved how powerful he was.
"Follow me."
General Cameron turned and led the way.
"You can leave first. I'll take care of this," Wang Teng said to Peggy and the others before turning to leave with General Cameron.
The team felt a little worried as they looked at Wang Teng's back.
That was the devil ovum!
Would Major Wang Teng be alright?
They weren't sure. They could only pray for him in their hearts.
They had only been on one mission with Wang Teng, but he took good care of them. Without him, none of them might be able to return alive.
Yet, all of them were back now.
Although some were injured, the injuries weren't life-threatening.
They felt grateful to Wang Teng, so they hoped that he would remain safe.
But for some reason, when they saw Major Wang Teng carrying the devil ovum lightheartedly, they found it a little funny.
Wang Teng didn't know what his team was thinking. He followed General Cameron and came to a location that was heavily guarded. He could faintly sense the powerful aura hidden around him.
They entered a metallic building and went to the elevator to basement 10.
That was right. There were ten floors below the ground in this building.
Wang Teng went directly to the lowest floor.
The moment he walked out of the elevator, he saw sturdy and strong metallic walls around him. They shimmered in white light and were exuding a thick light Force.
This was an underground space forged using a large number of light energy stones.
Wang Teng felt the devil ovum getting agitated and anxious. The light Force around was affecting it.
