(Added to last night's update)
The Demon Suppression Fortress was huge, like an ancient giant beast crawling on the ground, guarding an area.
There were a few places in the Demon Suppression Fortress that were very famous. One of them was the Demon Hunter Hall. The Demon Hunter Hall was only accessible to warriors who applied to become Demon Hunters and real Demon Hunters.
The other was the Demon Suppression Barracks.
Compared to the Demon Hunter Hall, the Demon Suppression Barracks was more mysterious because ordinary warriors were not allowed to get close. Even Demon Hunters were not allowed to get close if there was no important matter, let alone enter.
The Demon Suppression Barracks was mainly black, and the flag was blood red. It was said that it was dyed with the blood of the demons.
The demons underground were different from the demons underground. They were stronger and were the real enemy of the cultivators. They could even command the demons underground to attack the surface world.
Compared to the demons underground, the demons underground were stronger and more cunning.
Stepping into the Demon Suppression Barracks, Chen Zong felt a chill in the air. Even the air seemed to be covered with a faint layer of scarlet.
This was an extremely strict place.
"Kill!" A series of uniform shouts suddenly sounded. The sound waves blended into one and shook the earth. The terrifying murderous aura filled the air. From afar, Chen Zong saw a red mist condensing in the sky like a ferocious beast, roaring and brandishing its claws, wanting to kill everything.
Chen Zong's body trembled involuntarily. His hair stood on end, and his muscles tightened. The tyrannical power in his body surged involuntarily, ready to attack at any time.
"Junior Brother, relax." Tang Guao smiled. "When I first stepped into the Demon Suppression Barracks, I was even more nervous than you."
Taking a deep breath, he inhaled the cold bloody smell in the air into his body. His muscles slowly relaxed. If it was an ordinary warrior who came here, he would not be able to withstand such a terrifying aura and would fall to the ground. If his cultivation was too low and his willpower was not strong enough, he would probably be shocked to death.
"Senior Brother, what was that?" After Chen Zong calmed down, he was still surprised.
"That was the Demon Suppression Barracks' drill." Tang Guao smiled.
"Drill!" Chen Zong was surprised. It was just a drill, but the aura was already so terrifying. If it was a real battle, wouldn't it be even more horrifying?
After stepping into the barracks, Chen Zong looked in the direction of the murderous aura. He could see blurry figures that seemed to be shrouded in blood.
The Demon Suppression Barracks occupied a vast area. It was divided into five barracks. Tang Guao took Chen Zong to the Fourth barracks.
Tang Guao's status in the barracks, but there were many people who were higher than him.
After all, warlords were divided into three grades. Tang Guao was only a low-grade warlord. Above the warlords were the titled warlords and army commanders. As for the mysterious army commander, it was said that he was in seclusion and rarely appeared.
. Chen Zong.........................
"Junior Brother, wait for me here." ....................................................................
. There were two armored Demon Suppression Barracks guards at the entrance of the barracks. When they saw Tang Guao, they bowed slightly.
About half an hour later, Chen Zong was summoned. With a solemn expression, Chen Zong stepped into the barracks under the watchful eyes of the two Demon Suppression Barracks guards.
Darkness and light alternated. Chen Zong felt two blazing rays of light fall on his body. They were extremely domineering and sharp, as if they were going to pierce through him.
Instantly, his hair stood on end. His muscles tightened, and his bones emitted bursts of explosive sounds. His Qi and blood surged, and his spiritual power surged. Muffled thunder rumbled in his body.
Very strong!
The person who was staring at him was very, very strong and terrifying. Chen Zong knew that even if he used the highest level Dark Feather Shield, he wouldn't be able to defend against the opponent's attack.
"Seems okay."
Immediately, the gaze became reserved. The pressure on Chen Zong was greatly reduced. Then, a slightly hoarse voice sounded.
"Haha, General Nangong, my junior brother Chen Zong is very talented. He's even more talented than me. What he lacks now is only time and opportunity." Tang Guao stood on the side and said with a respectful smile.
Sitting on the main seat was a figure that was not very tall. In fact, he could only be considered to be small and skinny. He appeared to be very old and somewhat stooped. His pair of eyes appeared to be dim and lifeless, with a hint of turbidity.
This old man was wearing black armor and a blood-red cloak draped over his back. Although he looked very thin and ordinary, Chen Zong didn't dare to underestimate him.
First, his senior brother called him a general. In other words, he was one of the eighteen titled generals in the Demon Suppression Barracks. His cultivation was at least in the seventh level of the Heavenly Profound Realm.
Second, Chen Zong wouldn't forget the gaze just now. It was so terrifying that it felt like it was going to pierce through him.
Standing there quietly, Chen Zong didn't say a word.
General Nangong's cloudy eyes moved away from Chen Zong and fell on Tang Guao. He asked again, "General Tang Zhan, have you made your decision?"
"I've made my decision." Tang Guao replied seriously.
"In that case, let your junior brother enter the Fourth Army's Hidden Dragon Division first." General Nangong said.
"Yes." Tang Guao bowed and left with Chen Zong.
Chen Zong also bowed to General Nangong. Then, he turned around and followed his senior brother out of the military palace.
The Demon Suppression Barracks was divided into five armies. Each army had its own division. The Hidden Dragon Division was one of them.
Tang Guao had already explained it to Chen Zong in detail.
The divisions in each army were the Hidden Dragon Division, the War Dragon Division, the Diligent Dragon Division, and the Piercing Dragon Division. Each division was clearly separated. They each had their own duties and were related to each other.
As for the Hidden Dragon Division, it was the most special division. It was directly under the five armies, but it was separated. It was in charge of the training of new recruits. After the recruits were trained well, they would be sent to the other divisions of the five armies.
The Hidden Dragon Division was in charge of collecting and organizing information. Then, it would inform the War Dragon Division and the Piercing Dragon Division.
The War Dragon Division was in charge of fighting. They were in charge of defending against the invasion of the underground demons and the underground demons.
The Piercing Dragon Division was also in charge of fighting. However, they were different from the War Dragon Division. They were better at attacking from a thousand miles away and killing with one strike. If the Demon Suppression Sergeants of the War Dragon Division were warriors in charge, then the sergeants of the Piercing Dragon Division were assassins.
Lastly, the Diligent Dragon Division was in charge of logistics. They were in charge of distributing resources to the other divisions.
Chen Zong had just joined the Demon Suppression Barracks. Naturally, he had to enter the Hidden Dragon Division first to receive some training. After the training, he would be assigned according to his performance.
The senior brother Tang Guao belonged to the War Dragon Division. He was the ninth general. The other eight generals of the War Dragon Division were all in the Profound Sky Realm.
"Junior brother, after entering the Hidden Dragon Division, train well." Tang Guao said.
"Don't worry, senior brother." Chen Zong said.
"The training will last for half a year. After half a year, there will be a test. If you pass the test, you will participate in the competition. If you don't pass the test, you will be assigned to other places." Tang Guao said again, "Junior brother, you must remember that no matter what the training is, you must do your best to complete it. Strive to achieve the best results."
Under Tang Guao's guidance, Chen Zong entered the Hidden Dragon Division.
Chen Zong nodded.
After arranging Chen Zong into the Hidden Dragon Division, Tang Guao left. He still had other things to take care of. As for other things, Tang Guao didn't give Chen Zong extra care, because he didn't need it.
Arranging Chen Zong into the Demon Suppression Barracks was only to reduce Chen Zong's time, so that he could get in touch with the higher-ups faster. As for other things, Chen Zong had to work hard to fight for them.
This was also in line with Chen Zong's intention.
"Right now, you are only a reserve sergeant. Only after you pass the training can you be promoted to a first grade sergeant. After that, your promotion will depend on your contributions." The person in charge of receiving Chen Zong in the Hidden Dragon Division said to Chen Zong.
Chen Zong nodded to show that he understood.
In the Demon Suppression Barracks, the highest rank was General Commander, then General Commander, then Grand Conferment, Third Grade Battle General, and finally Sergeant, which was divided into six grades.
Every battle general had risen from the ranks of a soldier.
"From tomorrow onwards, you will be training with the other recruits. This is your equipment. Remember to bring it."
Because Chen Zong used a sword, he was given a black long sword and a simple black armor. The hardness and toughness of the long sword and the armor reached the level of a low grade spiritual weapon, but they didn't have the spirituality that a spiritual weapon should have. Therefore, they weren't considered low grade spiritual weapons.
The long sword and the armor were only for training.
After becoming a reserve Demon Suppression Sergeant, he would be given 100 merit points every month.
Merit points were important to both Demon Hunters and the Demon Suppression Barracks, but there was a difference between the two.
For Demon Hunters, merit points were not only used to exchange, but also the standard to promote their ranks. However, for the Demon Suppression Barracks, merit points were only used to exchange, and couldn't be used to promote their ranks. Only by making military contributions could they promote their ranks.
Chen Zong had already gained hundreds of merit points by killing demons outside the Demon Suppression Fortress. Now, he gained another 100. There were also some magic medicines and demon body parts in his Mustard Seed Bag. If he went to the Demon Hunting Hall and turned in the mission, he could get another 100 merit points.
However, according to the rules of the Demon Suppression Barracks, during the training period of the Hidden Dragon Division, no one was allowed to leave the barracks. Chen Zong had to give up the idea of going to the Demon Hunting Hall.
Everything could wait until the training was over. As for the content of the training, Chen Zong didn't know, but he wasn't afraid at all.
The duty of the Demon Suppression Barracks was to fight against the Underground Demons and demons. Their training should be inseparable from this aspect.
Chen Zong was arranged to live in an independent dormitory. It was very simple: a bed, a table, a chair, and a cattail hassock. That was all.
However, such a simple place would be the place where he would spend the next few months or even a year. Chen Zong wasn't dissatisfied with this. He had been in worse environments, so this was nothing.
Sitting cross-legged on the hassock, Chen Zong took out two mid-grade spiritual sources, one in each hand, and started to absorb the pure spiritual energy in them to practice the Mind Mystery Skill.
In the past, the cultivation of Body Refining had been his shortcoming, but now, the cultivation of Qi Refining had become his shortcoming, and he needed to improve it urgently. Only by making up for his shortcoming and improving his essence, Qi, and spirit would be the best.
