“I didn’t do it alone, Tongwu was there with me.”

Lin Bai’s voice and his expression was calm, as if it was just a matter of convenience.

The old General looked at him in surprise.

His expression was very serious.

“Lin Bai, are you willing to enter the army in advance?”

Lin Bai was stunned.

Why did everyone in the army like to say this to him now?

He did not say anything and only looked at the old General in confusion.

The old General’s voice was very calm. Every word he said to Lin Bai seemed very bold.

“You’re very outstanding. We wanted to see how capable you are through this competition.”

However, Lin Bai gave them a huge surprise before they could see Lin Bai’s ability from the competition! This surprise was too big!

The old General’s eyes were filled with smiles. He looked at Lin Bai and said seriously.

“Lin Bai, you can consider it carefully.”

Lin Bai looked up at the old general and then at Li Zhongjing and the other two. He smiled at them.

“General, now is not the time to recruit subordinates. This Gro can speak our language, and so can the Beast King I dealt with previously.”

“I think there must be something wrong. How did they do it if no one taught them?”

Zhang Jian and Li Zhongjing could not help but look at each other in shock as soon as Lin Bai finished speaking.

“You mean, there’s a spy?”

Lin Bai nodded.

He did not beat around the bush. His tone was not tactful at all as he said to them, “There might be a traitor. Moreover, this traitor must be in the military camp.”

Zhang Jian’s face turned even paler.

He said anxiously, “Old General, you know me. How could I possibly…!”

The old general glanced at Zhang Jian indifferently.

“I know it’s impossible for you to betray us, but who did you send to patrol?”

At this moment, it did not seem appropriate for Lin Bai to continue listening here.

Zhang Jian did not say anything and only glanced at Lin Bai and the others.

The old general waved his hand.

“Just tell me!”

Zhang Jian’s expression was ugly, and his tone was stiff and frightened.

“Only Huang Su and Liu Yuling’s team are qualified to enter the security control room.”

“But they…”

Zhang Jian subconsciously looked at Wu Yue.

“They’re from the 23rd Battalion and were Wu Yue’s subordinates previously.”

The old general glanced at Wu Yue and sighed softly.

“Their profiles!”

Zhang Jian paused and said to the old general, “Major General Wu should know them better than us.”

Wu Yue did not hesitate at all. He revealed their profiles to them.

These two people joined the army at the age of 18. They had extremely good talent. Later on, Wu Yue even took the initiative to fork out money for them to attend a formal school for two years.

where they underwent strict training!

Then, they returned to the army. These two people performed abnormally well and carried out every mission perfectly.

After the 23rd Battalion disbanded, they were assigned here and became officers. This time, they followed Zhang Jian over here and were in charge of security.

Wu Yue’s tone was calm, but Lin Bai suddenly understood why Wu Yue had been a little distracted previously. He was even a little dazed.

These two were his former comrades, but now, they have now become suspected traitors.

Lin Bai paused.

After Wu Yue finished speaking, the old general rubbed his eyebrows.

“Lin Bai, if you join the army, your team will still be retained and you can enter and leave freely. You only need to accept missions and don’t have to train in the army.”

“I can even give you an officer rank to enjoy the treatment of an officer.”

Lin Bai blinked.

He looked at the old general and said in a low voice, “Old General, what will happen to our studies if my team enters the army?”

Since he had entered the academy, he naturally wanted to obtain his graduation certificate.

The old general waved his hand and said solemnly to Lin Bai.

“You can all graduate early!”

His eyes never left Lin Bai, staring intently at him, as if he did not want to miss a single change in him.

Lin Bai thought of something.

He knew that there was a high chance that he would enter the army after graduation.

Most of the students who entered the academy would choose to enlist after all.

Moreover, Lin Bai had his own ideals!

He already had such a huge cheat, so he naturally wanted to fulfill his calling.

More importantly, these Origin Beasts were fighting every three days. If he did not deal with them, he would not have a stable life writing books.

Thinking of this, Lin Bai stopped being polite.

“Old General, I’m naturally willing to join the army, but I only have one request.”

“You should know that I relied on writing novels to cash up, right? I wrote all these martial arts that you’ve never seen before.”

“This is my advantage!”

Lin Bai did not feel that there was anything wrong.

They could also attempt writing it if they had the ability after all.

Wasn’t he the only one who could do it?

The corners of Lin Bai’s lips curled up slightly.

“That’s why I need an absolutely safe room to write books. I have to have a free period of time every day to write.”

The old General nodded without hesitation, as soon as Lin Bai finished speaking.

“Sure, we’ll arrange a dormitory for you. You’ll live in the military area. You just have to go out when you’re on a mission.”

“You don’t have to participate in the competition. We’ll get someone to send you back this afternoon. Your first mission is to protect the students sent by all the academies!”

The old General’s expression was serious.

Lin Bai touched his nose and nodded.

“Alright, but won’t we alarm the others when we go back this afternoon?”

The old General waved his hand.

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

“Lin Bai, we still have something to discuss. You guys can leave first.”

He glanced at Wu Yue and said, “Stay behind. I have something to ask you.”

Wu Yue subconsciously glanced at Lin Bai, but he did not speak and only lowered his head.

Lin Bai did not mind. He touched his chin and bowed to the old General before leaving with Li Tongwu and the others.

It was calm outside. There were many unknowing students walking around in the camp, seriously asking about tomorrow.

They did not know that the competition had been canceled.

Li Tongwu was still a little nervous. He seemed to have woken up from a dream and only reacted now. He looked at Lin Bai.

“We graduated?”

“We even joined the army?”

Li Tongwu grabbed Lin Bai’s hand, his voice sounding a little excited.

“Boss! Pinch me and I’ll see if it’s true!”

Lin Bai did not know whether to laugh or cry. He looked up at Li Tongwu and smiled helplessly at him.

“Yes, we graduated and joined the army.”

Lin Bai’s heart was calm. His attitude was too calm, making Li Tongwu a little curious.

“Boss, aren’t you excited? What are you thinking about?”

Lin Bai pursed his lips.

He said lightly, “I’m wondering what to write in the fourth book.”
