Silence descended in the campsite as if an angel had come to visit the group and prayed for her arrival. But in reality, everyone is staring at the killing records of their team leader who hasn't returned to their group. They were stunned by the fact that such a young and delicate looking beautiful person to be an extremely powerful soldier who could even defeat a royal class zergs on his own.
Tang San whispered, "Our Big boss is so amazing! He can kill a royal class zerg on his own!"
"In First Military Academy, he was infamous for being trash who failed to awaken, who would have thought that is nothing but a piece of fake news and he is an awakened person who is stronger than any of us. Rumors aren't completely true as always," said Tang Yi.
Tang Si asked, "By the way is Lord Jing a Sentinel or a Guide?"
When this question is asked they've all looked at Feng Wu and Bai Yuyan who are Feng Jing's aides. Bai Yuyan looked uncomfortable and moved his gaze to see Fang Wu's reaction. He knows that they are a group but Feng Jing's case is really a secret. So he doesn't know if he is allowed to say anything about his young lord.
Feng Wu who knew about his lord's unconcerned attitude towards anything except his husband knew that he wouldn't mind if he told them about him.
"My lord is an awakened SSS Guide," said Feng Wu in an undertone voice.
Everyone had become speechless with what they had learned. Most of them had overreacted, especially Han Ling and the Tang Twins. Both their eyes and mouth were widened enough for their eyes to fall off and for an egg to fit in their mouths. The others are not that different either, some even covered their mouth to stop a gasp or scream from coming out their mouths. Only Solaris Vega remained confused with his innocent eyes looking at his other teammates.
Tang San couldn't hold back a curse in shock, "What the fuc–!!!"
"Hiss~ For real!?" exclaimed Tang Si.
Qu Yeon said, "Shss~ don't let the other's hear!"
"I… I expected him to be like that but this… even I didn't expect this," said Tang Si.
Han Ling said, "I only know Lord Jing is strong but not to this extent. No wonder he would look around somewhere and just smile."
"I thought he was pointing some random directions at first. To think he already knows most of the things. Did he already know about this beehive? Moreover, did he send me to a group going to the east forest in the outer region because he knew my brother was there?" said Qu Yul.
Bai Yuyan said, "Now that you said this. I just remembered that I told Xiao Jing about the teams for the hunting tasks. He also suggested putting Yul and A'Liu to A'Wu's team since he's going to the east forest."
With this question of Qu Yul and words from Bai Yuyan, everyone was rendered speechless. If they recalled everything their leader, Feng Jing, had done right from the first day they had stepped on this planet. They could remember him looking around the place with a smile. Then he suddenly suggested that they make their campsite need the river even though no one had checked through what was living within those waters. He also immediately ran towards the river while they were in a meeting.
At that time everyone thought he wanted to play his role as a salted fish, but it seems he had gone to the river and was scared of whatever was living there and had to secure the water source for their group.
Lin Yven said, "This… doesn't follow the route we are following most of the time, something Etoile had suggested. Don't tell me we've been taking the safest route this whole time."
"This hidden campsite too. Isn't this something Lord Jing had found randomly as well," said Shi Wen.
Shi Lou said, "Too much coincidence is impossible right?"
SILENCE~
It was at that moment that they heard the voice registered in their minds, the owner of all coincidence since the beginning of the competition.
Feng Jing who checked the soup over the fire said, "Hey~ the soup is burning~~"
Everyone called, "LEADER!"
Holding a ladle of soup, "Oh? Is there a problem?" asked Feng Jing with a clear gaze.
Those garnets like irises glow under the moonlight. Giving the feeling of someone staring at you but unable to comprehend what he wanted. His slightly upturned lips were natural as if nothing in this world could make him feel pressured. Everyone didn't realize that they had fallen in a daze seeing the beautiful man in front of them. Regardless of whether they are an ordinary person, a guide, or a sentinel, no one could deny that Feng Jing's current vessel possesses a beauty above class within the empire. Plus when Feng Jing took over, some of his original features like his phoenix-shaped eyes had merged with the current one. Making his beauty a bit otherworldly.
Bai Yuyan murmured, "Wow~ you are really pretty Xiao Jing!" he said as he suddenly jumped on him and hugged Feng Jing out of nowhere.
Feng Wu had to work hard to pull him off his lord as he knew that, that demon incarnate, that overly jealous Lord God is definitely watching. Bai Yuyan would definitely get punished by that demon king once he saw this scene.
"Thanks, A'Yu. You're pretty yourself too~" said Feng Jing.
Next, Solaris Vega came running towards Feng Jing as well. As if a chick found his mother hen. He hovers around Feng Jing and Bai Yuyan until he decides to hug Feng Jing's arm like a child. He looks foolish and adorable. But unlike Feng Jing's acting, this child is a real innocent and silly boy.
Solaris Vega said, "Leader~ we fought that guardian class zerg. I wasn't able to help much but~"
"No. You did the most Xiao Vega. The weapons the mechas the seniors have used had been adjusted to the peak of its extent by you. That is your hardest work and it was the most helpful. You can even allow Senior Xue's bloodline to be used with his weapon. No one is able to do so easily but you did. Our Xiao Vega is a little genius ba~" said Feng Jing while patting Solaris Vega's head.
Xue Ran approached Vega as well and praised him at the same time.
"Lord Jing is right. You did good, Vega," said Xue Ran. The seniors had all agreed that the weapons adjustment Solaris Vega is a genius work. They were all grateful for him.
Giggles~
Solaris Vega giggled upon hearing his seniors' and leader's praises. This is the first time he had shared the result of his works. In the First Military Academy, his works were never praised. Some of it was even stolen. Moreover, because he is an orphan with no background, lastly those young masters from noble bloodlines like to bully him. Some were even forceful like Navi Nash.
Thankfully, Feng Jing saved him countless times. It was because of this that Solaris Vega really likes being with Feng Jing because for him he is not only his savior but also his idol. When the rumors about Feng Jing failing to awaken as a guide spread in their school, he had decided to join the group his idol had made regardless of how Lin Yven tried to stop him. In the end, the two of them had joined the little group Feng Jing had made.
The situation right now is more comfortable than before. Him being able to spend time and hard work to help his idol while enjoying the hobby of making his gadgets. There is always someone to accompany him when he wants to try his invention and someone who is willing to protect him all the time.
Feng Wu who finally pulled off the two on his lord respectfully saluted and said, "Reporting! We had completed all of the tasks for today and defeated the Guardian Class Zerg who popped out."
Everyone followed Feng Wu's gesture and saluted Feng Jing. They were all looking at their leader collectively showing their respect.
Feng Jing nodded his head and said, "You did great. We will continue our hunt tomorrow. Senior Wen and Senior Lou would be joining us. For now, let's enjoy our dinner ba~"
"Yes, Leader!"
While this team is enjoying their dinner party for that night, their 100k plus KP has been announced to every participant of the event.
[World Announcement: Congratulations to Team Leader Feng Jing and his teams for achieving 188,000 KP. They had accumulated the highest Kill Points within two days and achieved the Achievement of defeating a Guardian Class and Royal Class Zerg in the Middle Region.]
Everyone from the other teams had different kinds of reactions. Those who hated Feng Jing and his team had it worse. From the campsite led by the team of Prince Rigel, Prince Naja had already thrown most of his things inside his tent. His aide and servants were all crouching afraid of getting hit by random things their master was throwing around.
"What the hell!? This is impossible! 188,000KP in two days!? There is no way they could do that. They even defeat a Guardian and Royal Class!? What the hell is this joke!? That is only a group made up of commoners!! They are just trash! Trash!!! ARRRGHHH!!!"
Sounds of glasses breaking. Sounds of metal-made materials clanging all around and even the sound of clothes ripping echoes from within the tent of Prince Naja but no one, even his most beloved cousin, is helping him to calm down. The shock of someone killing a guardian class zerg is already surprising and now they are saying they also defeated a royal class zerg! This is unbelievable.
At the main camp of Prince Rigel.
His main members except Prince Naja had gathered.
"Arara~ your cousin is destroying everything. Aren't you going to calm him down?"
Prince Rigel replied, "No need. He would stop once he is tired. This is more important. We are losing to them and the final three days haven't started yet. The first team already has 188,000 KP. What do you think we should do right now?"
"Who would think that there are really Guardian class and Royal class zergs in the middle region. They just got lucky."
"We had ignored that beehive because no one was able to scout inside. To think there is a guardian and royal zerg in there. How did they know?"
"According to the information, the highest guide in their team is someone from the Feng Clan. He seems to be the aide of Young Lord Feng Jing. The name is Feng Wu, SS ranked Guide."
"You think he was able to see through that beehive. I am also a SS ranked Guide but was unable to see through that damn beehive!!"
"Calm down. We also know about that. But there is a genius inventor and mechanic in that group. He must have made some special drone and used it to survey the hive. Your Highness Rigel, we should invite that little genius to our team!"
"But that genius is only an ordinary person, would it be worth it?"
Prince Rigel spoke, "It is a question of whether my Imperial Uncle would let the kid go. You've seen it from the recording right? He likes that child a lot."
"So what? Isn't the Young Lord Feng a failure? He is the only trash who wasn't able to awaken as a guide!"
Prince Rigel spoke, "Watch your mouth, Vern. My Imperial Uncle might be an unawakened one but… he is still Feng and My Royal Uncle's beloved brother. Do you want to offend the Crowned King?"
"Ugh! Sorry, your highness…"
"But things cannot end like this, your highness. Please let me try talking with the little genius. I might be able to persuade him." said a man wearing glasses. His name is Sylvan Hart. A member of the royal knights from the Imperial Palace and serves the royal bloodline. He is an orphan who was adopted into the palace for his talent. An SS+ ranked Guide.
Prince Rigel stared at this subordinate of his with a calm gaze. He had always hated this man for being someone of common birth. If not for the fact that it was his father's orders to let Silven Hart follow him, he wouldn't even accept a person with no background within his royal knights.
Regulus Rigel spoke, "Then… do as you are supposed to do."
"As you commanded, Your highness," said Sylvan Hart before walking out of the main tent.
