The Great Age of Voyage of the Elves

Chapter 23 This is a favor, I can help

Time flies, and it has been more than a month since Mu came to the naval base of the Third Fleet.

Chenglong's training has been going on in an orderly manner, and the improvement in strength is gratifying, but at the same time, the terrifying cost is also daunting...

On this day, after a lapse of more than a month, Mu was summoned again by the fleet's senior commander, Lieutenant General Samas.

When he came to the office, Mu Xian saluted standardly and asked, "Sir, are you looking for me?"

The lieutenant general raised his head from behind the desk, sized him up, and said approvingly, "That's right, your body looks much stronger than when you first came here, so it's decent. By the way, do you still want to go to sea now?"

"Of course." Mu replied decisively.

Although it is quite easy for him to do this teaching job now, he did not intend to join the navy for paddling. If he wanted to catch fish, wouldn't it be nice to just lie in his inland manor castle and wait for death?
"Okay." The lieutenant general nodded. "Recently, there happened to be a captain who was very optimistic about you. Next, I plan to arrange for you to go to his ship for an internship for a while."

Mu naturally had no objection.

He was just a little curious. Recently, his scope of activities was basically limited to the training camp. How could there be a fleet captain looking at him directly?
Of course, this is probably destined to become an unsolved mystery for a generation, because Siegfried will definitely not take the initiative to tell the truth about how he passed away alone in the cold wind that day...

After confirming Mu's wishes, the lieutenant general did not forget to remind: "Then you should prepare well recently, find a few more boats on the pier to try, and exercise your body's adaptability."

Usually the navy recruits people near the port, so there is usually no need to worry about people getting seasick, but Mu came from the inland after all, so the lieutenant general kindly reminded him at this time.

Mu nodded and thanked him. He has been paying attention to this aspect and has not found any problems so far.

He then bid farewell and left.

It didn't take long for the news that he was about to board a ship for an internship to spread in the training camp and became a hot topic of discussion.

Many people are talking about that if the teaching is gone, the next elf cultivation class will not stop again.

Some of them are happy and some are sad.

Most people are lamenting that this class has a long-term fate, and it is about to enter the palace again.

However, there are also a small number of people who are happy when they hear it.

Lucas was one of them. He hadn't passed Mu's first round of assessment for more than a month. Every time he lay on the ground like a fool and begged Hai Xingxing to move again.

"Tch, it would be best if this shitty class is gone, who the hell wants to take it?"

As a result, he just got up on his side and didn't start cursing hard. On the other side, Cornings immediately slapped the bread on the table, making a "bang" sound.

The quality of the bread in the Navy canteen is so hard.

"You—what do you want?!"

Lucas and his younger brothers jumped up from their seats in an instant.

Obviously a month ago, they bullied Conings who had just entered the training camp. At that time, they were extremely arrogant, as if they walked with music on their feet, but who would have thought that just one month later, the situation would turn 180 degrees. Now, just a little movement by Conings can scare them into fright.

As the first batch of outstanding students who passed Mu's screening, Cornings has been humbly accepting Mu's guidance during this month, and the speed of progress can be described as extremely astonishing, which made Mu, a teacher, stare at him.

A few days ago, his Mo Haima had successfully evolved into a sea thorn dragon, and his strength had been further improved.

Now Lucas' starfish can't do two tricks in front of the sea thorn dragon, the gap is so big that people who hear it are sad and those who hear it cry.

After putting down the food, Cornings turned his head and glanced over there. He was so frightened that the people over there didn't dare to eat. He backed away several times and asked sternly, "What do you want?"

Unexpectedly, Cornings didn't say anything, left the dinner plate and got up in silence, and then left the navy cafeteria quickly.

Get Lucas and his gang at a loss.

"Why is this kid running out so late?"

It was already dinner time, and they couldn't figure out where Lucas was going at this time.

Similarly, Mu couldn't figure it out either.

So he stood blankly at the entrance of the training camp at this moment, looking at the boy who suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped him, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Why are you looking for me?"

Conings looked at him with burning eyes, "Sir, can you take me on board this time?"

Hearing this request, Mu Xian was taken aback.

"Isn't your course in the training camp over yet?"

Normally, a recruit would not be assigned to the ship until he had been in the training camp for three to four months. Mu was a special case. His identity and family background meant that he did not need to start from the grassroots level. What's more, his trainer's strength had been approved by the fleet's senior vice-admiral Samas in advance.

And Cornings entered the preparatory camp almost at the same time as Mu, and he was still far from graduation.

But right now, the boy's will seems to be very firm, "That's why I want to ask you, sir, help me."

Mu looked at Cornings in front of him, and didn't reply in a hurry.

To be honest, he is very optimistic about this young man. Among the many recruits he has guided this month, Cornings has the best talents in all aspects. Now his sea thorn dragon's combat power cannot be underestimated. The improved water gun inspired by him will be injured even if it is eaten by a dragon.

So he decided to ask the reason first: "Why are you in a hurry to get on the boat?"

Conings did not shy away, and replied bluntly: "Only when going to sea, can there be subsidies. If you stay in the training camp, the military salary is too little."

"Forehead……"

Mu did not expect such a simple reason.

But this is indeed the truth. The military salary that the recruits can receive during the training camp is very meager. It is far better to go to work on the dock, otherwise the navy will not always be short of people.

The subsidy belonging to the sea soldier can only be received by going to sea with the ship after graduation, but this subsidy is also not available during the period of returning to Hong Kong for repairs.

But Mu couldn't help but asked again, "Are you very short of money recently?"

Although it is natural to be poor, and even Mu, a wealthy family in the eyes of outsiders, has been short of money recently, Cornings' situation is a bit special after all: he lied about his age before joining the army, and now he is eager to go to sea after only one month of training in the preparatory camp, which inevitably makes people feel a little too eager.

If it were someone else, Mu might not want to meddle in this nosy business, but Cornings is a young man he is very optimistic about, and there is barely a teacher-student friendship between the two of them.

"If you have any difficulties, you can tell me first. If I want to take you on board, at least I need to understand your situation first."

Cornings was silent again now.

So this boring gourd's character is really troublesome—Mu complained in his heart.

In order to save time, Mu simply ordered Cornings to lead the way and go to his house to see the situation together.

The elf ball on his waist gave him great confidence, no matter what, as long as he has Chenglong, his own safety is guaranteed.

He was a second lieutenant and Cornings was just a recruit, so Cornings couldn't find a reason to refuse his order, and finally had to take him to a poor area near the port.

After wandering through several alleys, the two stopped in front of a small shack.

Konings turned his head to look at Mu, seeing that Mu was still insisting, he hesitated a few times, and finally had no choice but to step forward and open the door.

"Is Cornings back?"

The sound of the door opening startled the people in the room, and as the door opened, a slender female back came into Mu's eyes.

At that moment, he even felt that time was slowed down, and his heartbeat accelerated a little uncontrollably.

The first thought that popped into my mind was: the kid next to me is doing a favor, I feel like I can help!
