"The military and the families are two completely different systems. Although some of the family members hold positions in the military, they will never be able to hold a dominant position. This is a rule set by the Empire. Even the eight royal families don't dare to go against it," Yuan Gungun said.
"The military's position is very high," Wang Teng exclaimed.
"Of course. They have to fight against the dark apparitions. If they are corrupted by other forces, it will be a big problem. Therefore, they have to ensure absolute independence," Yuan Gungun said.
Then, through Yuan Gungun's explanation, Wang Teng finally understood how high the position of a general in the military was.
"So what if they are powerful? Can the 18 generals help me?" Wang Teng shook his head.
"They can't help you. However, if you obtain a high position in the military, the Pylax family will naturally be more cautious." Yuan Gungun didn't say anything else. He left the decision to Wang Teng.
Wang Teng thought for a while. He looked at General Mokalén and smiled. "General, what do you mean?"
General Mokalén saw his expression and knew that there was a chance. He laughed in his heart and said, "As long as you can solve this' Demon Egg ', I will personally go to the general and ask for a reward for you."
"Oh, I can do that." Wang Teng had an idea. He touched his chin uncontrollably.
"How about it?" General Mokalén smiled in his heart.
Indeed, there was no problem that couldn't be solved. It was just that he didn't have enough bargaining chips.
"What about the 30,000 military credits?" Wang Teng asked.
"I will personally ask for a reward for you, but you still care about the 30,000 military credits," General Mokalén said helplessly.
"After all, solving this' Demon Egg 'is a difficult task. I will have to pay a huge price," Wang Teng complained.
"… I don't believe you." General Mokalén's eyes twitched. "Forget it. I will still give you the 30,000 military credits."
"Thank you, General. I will accept your offer." Wang Teng smiled and immediately agreed.
General Mokalén was speechless.
He agreed so easily!
Why do I feel like I've been tricked by this brat?
General Mokalén was depressed, but he couldn't say anything.
The two of them came to the end of the corridor. General Mokalén opened the door of the last room with his own identity and said, "Put the Magic Egg here first."
"Are you sure?" Wang Teng asked worriedly.
"From today onwards, other than you and me, there won't be a third person entering this place. I guarantee that nothing will go wrong." General Mokalén asked, "How long will it take you to deal with the 'Devil Egg'?"
"It will take at least ten days to half a month." Wang Teng gave a random time.
"Put the Demon Egg in. I'll take you to check it," General Mokalén said.
"Okay." Wang Teng didn't say anything else. He waved his hand and threw the Devil Egg in.
With a bang, the demonic egg smashed into the ground like a big meatball. It bounced a few times before stopping.
"…" The demonic egg.
"…"
General Mokalén silently closed the door and said,
"Let's go."
Wang Teng followed General Mokalén to the third basement floor. There were all kinds of instruments here, and many people in white uniforms were busy.
"General Mokalén, what brings you here today?" A very old white-haired old man walked over and asked with a smile.
This old man had a very strange appearance. His head was very big, and his eyes were also very big. His eyes were very deep, but his body was very thin and weak. He looked like he was top-heavy and light-footed. Wang Teng was afraid that he would fall to the ground as he walked.
"Van Bolen, this kid has been in contact with the 'Devil Egg'. Check him," General Mokalén said directly.
"What, the 'Devil Egg'?!" The old man called Van Bolen suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Mokalén and Wang Teng in shock. His eyes turned and said, "Did you get the 'Devil Egg'? Did you get the 'Devil Egg'? Quick, tell me, where is it? "
"You can even guess that." Wang Teng couldn't help but glance at him.
"No, the 'Devil Egg' is a very rare item. How could we have gotten it?" General Mokalén said calmly.
"Humph, you want to lie to me? I only need to smell your body to know that you must have been in contact with the 'Devil Egg' for a long time, and not for long," Van Bolen snorted and said with disdain.
Wang Teng's eyes flashed with a strange light.
"Kid, tell me, did you bring the 'Devil Egg' back?" Van Bolen suddenly turned his head and stared at Wang Teng as he asked.
"You really like to joke. I can't wait to run away from something like the 'Devil Egg'. How could I possibly bring it back?" Wang Teng lied through his teeth. He was the best at this kind of thing.
"General Mokalén lied to me, and you also lied to me." Van Bolen didn't believe him at all.
"If you don't believe me, I can't do anything about it." Wang Teng shrugged.
"Alright, Van Bolen, hurry up and check him," General Mokalén said with a frown.
"Humph, if you don't let me see the 'Devil Egg,' I won't let him check it." Van Bolen was like an old child as he snorted and turned his head away.
"Van Bolen, this is no small matter. Stop being unreasonable," General Mokalén said coldly.
"What do you mean by no small matter? Give me the 'Devil Egg' and I might be able to figure out a way to deal with the dark apparitions. That's the big matter," Van Bolen said.
"Stop messing around. If it was so easy to figure out a way to deal with the dark apparitions, we wouldn't have to fight them until now," General Mokalén said with a headache.
"You have to try everything," Van Bolen said.
"You can't just go near the 'Devil Egg'. You'll be infected. No one can take responsibility for that," General Mokalén said.
"You really did get the 'Devil Egg'. If I'm not wrong, it was this kid who brought it back. The aura of the 'Devil Egg' is the strongest on him." Van Bolen moved closer to Wang Teng and sniffed carefully. He had an expression that said, "I already guessed it." He grabbed Wang Teng and walked into the room. "Come, come, come. Let me check you first. You're a little strange. You don't look like you're infected at all."
Wang Teng was a little confused.
What the hell?
Van Bolen looked like he wouldn't let him check even if he was beaten to death. Why was he in a hurry to check him now?
There was something wrong with this old man.
General Mokalén shook his head. He wasn't surprised at all. It was obvious that he already knew about Van Bolen's character.
"Stand on that machine." Van Bolen brought Wang Teng to a huge machine and pushed him with his shriveled hand.
Wang Teng was a little surprised. This old man looked so weak, but he was actually so strong.
He looked at the machine in front of him. It was a cylindrical glass cabin that was five meters tall. There were many metal tubes connected to it, but he didn't know what they were for.
Wang Teng didn't hesitate and stood on it.
Van Bolen raised his eyebrows and said to the worker beside him, "Start the scan!"
"Yes!" The worker hurriedly nodded and began to operate the machine.
The cylindrical glass cabin door closed. Then, rays of white light swept out from the glass cabin and completely enveloped Wang Teng.
The white light scanned him from head to toe ten times.
The worker stopped the scan and shook his head at Van Bolen.
"Oh, there's nothing." Fan Bolen pulled Wang Teng out and walked to another machine. He shoved Wang Teng inside. "Continue."
A moment later.
"Still nothing. Continue!"
"Continue!"
"Continue!"
… …
For a full hour, Wang Teng was fiddled with by Van Bolen. He checked dozens of times and tried almost all the machines at least once.
In the end, he didn't find anything.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Kid, you're quite interesting." Van Bolen circled around Wang Teng, looking him up and down. It was as if he was looking at a perfect … research subject.
Wang Teng's scalp went numb under his gaze. He couldn't help but take a step back.
Why did this old man look so much like a perverted scientist? Was he going to cut him up for research?
"General Mokalén, why don't you let me play with this kid for a few days?" Van Bolen turned his head and said to General Mokalén.
"Play?" Wang Teng didn't feel good.
This old man really was a perverted pervert.
He actually wanted to play with him.
General Mokalén looked at Wang Teng in surprise. He didn't expect him to not be bewitched by the devil egg. He was quite surprised.
This kid probably had a lot of secrets.
Why not let Van Bolen study him?
"… …" Wang Teng.
F * ck, what's with that look?
I trusted you so much, but you want to give me to someone else to study?
Wang Teng could tell at a glance that General Mokalén wasn't human.
"General Mokalén, don't forget what I promised you." Wang Teng narrowed his eyes and threatened.
"Cough, cough. You misunderstood me." Mokalén coughed dryly to hide his guilty conscience.
