Chapter 145 Thoughtful Considerations
“Ah…”
Seeing Chen Xue like this, Lu Wei also shook his head helplessly. In the past, Chen Xue would never act unreasonably. It also pained him deeply to see a mighty inhuman expert like her fall into such a state.
However, after experiencing the painful lesson from last time, he had to be strong. This was what former Chief Commander Zhou Yun had entrusted him with before dying. No matter what, he could not let the tragedy from last time repeat itself.
Lin Feng returned to the residence of the Chief Commander. The South Mountain Base was huge, two or three times larger than the Dragon Mountain Base. Hence, there was no lack of residences. As the Chief Commander, he naturally had some privileges. In reality, all inhuman experts had privileges.
The place where Lin Feng lived was a standalone villa. It had already been cleaned up, and there were even guards who needed to be notified for entrance. Thanks to the technological boom, martial artists who fought at the frontline had very good living necessities. The conditions did not feel “arduous”.
However, the battles with dire beasts from time to time made every martial artist on the frontline tense.
Lin Feng had just arrived at the South Mountain Base. Even with a simple introduction from Lu Wei, he was still clueless. Actually, he did not know much about the actual situation.
He was mainly concerned about a few things. The first was the dire beasts. Information regarding the strength of the dire beasts was the most crucial thing.
For example, if it were the Screwworms, it would be rather troublesome. The Screwworms with the undying characteristic were very difficult to kill. Lin Feng knew that the South Mountain Base mainly resisted the Pangolin Beasts.
This type of dire beast was also introduced in the Martial Domain Network. It was an extremely powerful dire beast. The skin on its entire body was hard as rocks. Moreover, its movements were agile, and it possessed boundless strength. It was a kind of dire beast that was very difficult to deal with.
Moreover, although they did not have terrifying regenerative ability or the undying characteristic, they had the ability of “burrowing”, allowing them to tunnel underground in an extremely short period of time.
This was also why it was difficult to completely annihilate the Pangolin Beasts. As long as they burrowed into the ground, it would be very difficult for martial artists to kill them all, unless martial artists dared to pursue them into the underground lair.
However, the underground lair was the base of the Pangolin Beasts. The advantages of the Pangolin Beasts were too great underground. If martial artists entered the underground lair rashly, they were likely to suffer a crushing defeat.
After reading through them, Lin Feng finally had a more direct understanding of the Pangolin Beasts. These Pangolin Beasts were indeed difficult to deal with. To a certain extent, they were even more troublesome than the Screwworms.
Just as Lin Feng was continuing to learn about the Pangolin Beasts in the Martial Domain Network, the guard outside the door announced that Captain Lu Wei had come to visit.
“Lu Wei? Invite him in.”
Lin Feng was a little confused. Lu Wei should have a lot of prestige in the South Mountain Base. Otherwise, after the death of the previous Chief Commander, Zhou Yun, he wouldn’t have taken the position of Acting Chief Commander.
Why was Lu Wei looking for him alone now?
Lin Feng exited the martial arts network and received Lu Wei in the living room.
“Chief Commander, there are still some things I hadn’t explained clearly previously. Chief Commander, please forgive me for my spontaneous visit.”
Lu Wei appeared very polite and humble, making one very comfortable.
Lin Feng was not an overbearing person either, so he shook his head and said, “There’s no need to stand on ceremony. If there’s anything on, you can come to me at any time. What would you like to explain this time, Chief Lu?”
Lu Wei took a deep breath and said with a weak smile, “I’m apologizing to the Chief Commander on Chen Xue’s behalf. Chen Xue was disrespectful and impetuous earlier. Actually, she didn’t mean it. There’s just a reason behind it.”
Lin Feng also thought of that rather “sharp” female martial artist. He shook his head and said, “It’s fine, but Captain Chen Xue is too hasty.”
“That’s right. Chen Xue wasn’t like this in the past. When Commander Zhou Yun led us to fight the Pangolin Beasts last time, due to our carelessness, not only was Commander Zhou Yun killed, the troops in the South Mountain Base suffered heavy losses as well. Ever since then, Chen Xue has been thinking of ways to avenge Commander Zhou Yun. No one could persuade her.”
Lin Feng already understood a little. Chen Xue must have had a close relationship with Zhou Yun before. It was even very likely that they were lovers. Zhou Yun had died in battle, so Chen Xue naturally could not let it go for the
time.
“By the way, how did Chief Commander Zhou Yun die in battle?”
Lin Feng felt that the strength of the South Mountain Base was considerable. All 36 battalion leaders were inhuman experts. Coupled with Zhou Yun, they should not have suffered such heavy losses.
“Chief Commander, I came here today to explain in detail.”
“Chief Commander Zhou Yun is a peak Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist, and at that time, the South Mountain Base was also very powerful. Everyone was preparing for a decisive battle to completely eliminate the threat of the Pangolin Beasts. Chief Commander Zhou Yun even invited Legate Shangguan Zhennan to oversee the battle against that demon general.”
Hearing this, Lin Feng’s heart skipped a beat. “There are demon generals among the Pangolin Beasts?”
Lin Feng was no longer a martial artist who had just broken the genetic lock and had little common knowledge. He had also learned a lot of things on the Martial Domain Forum. He knew that demons were divided into ordinary demons, general-level demons, king-level demons, and the legendary emperor-level demons.
They corresponded to Metamorphic Realm martial artists, Divine Realm martial artists, Meta-divine Realm martial artists, and Sages respectively!
Therefore, demon generals were generally comparable to Divine Realm martial artists. In fact, they were even stronger in certain aspects. For example, Lord Dragon Rider Hao Shiyi’s giant dragon was actually a demon general.
“There was a demon general among the Pangolin Beasts, and it was very powerful! It’s just that it almost never appeared in the past and was lurking in the depths of the underground lair. In order to prepare for this decisive battle, Commander Zhou Yun invited Legate Shangguan Zhennan, to prepare to deal with the demon general. Everything was originally going smoothly, but we underestimated the Pangolin Beasts and the demon general among the Pangolin Beasts.”
“Countless Pangolin Beasts surged out from underground. They were densely packed and tunneled all the way into the base. Then, the entire base fell to the Pangolin Beasts. In the end, it was only thanks to the Northern Mountain Base rushed over in time to assist us and Legate Shangguan Zhennan taking action that the situation was stabilized.”
“However, Commander Zhou Yun was still killed by a demon general. The entire South Mountain Base suffered heavy losses as well.”
After listening to Lu Wei’s detailed account, Lin Feng’s heart slowly sank.
It was a devastating battle. He could almost imagine how brutal that battle was. Zhou Yun fell in battle, and 15 battalion leaders fell in battle as well. The South Mountain Base still had not recovered in power up until now.
The intensity of the battle was not inferior to the war against the Screwworms outside Dragonlith City. If Shangguan Zhennan was defeated, would the Pangolin Beasts be able to charge straight into the South Mountain City?
If that really happened, the consequences would be unthinkable!
“Captain Lu Wei, I’ve already understood the basic situation. You didn’t come here in such a hurry just to introduce these situations to me, did you?”
Lin Feng knew that Lu Wei had other motives.
Lu Wei was not embarrassed, but said straightforwardly, “I’m just explaining the situation at the South Mountain Base in detail. Actually, I hope that Chief Commander will not act impulsively, let alone launch an attack on those Pangolin Beasts rashly after listening to Chen Xue’s words. Our South Mountain Base can no longer withstand a second heavy blow.”
Lin Feng was silent for a long time. He understood Lu Wei’s thoughtful considerations.

“I understand. Thank you for introducing these situations to me, Captain Lu Wei.”
“It’s my duty.”
With that, Lu Wei did not disturb Lin Feng and bade farewell.
Looking at Lu Wei’s departing figure, Lin Feng heaved a long sigh. “What thoughtful considerations. The situation at the South Mountain Base is complicated. Fortunately, there’s Lu Wei. Otherwise, there’s no knowing what the South Mountain Base would be like now. It might not even be able to hold out.” Lin Feng shook his head. He even felt that Lu Wei was more fitting for the position of Chief Commander of the South Mountain Base than Zhou Yun. Although his strength was a little lacking, he considered matters very thoroughly.
Unfortunately, Lu Wei was not the Chief Commander, and he could not persuade Zhou Yun. That was why they had suffered such a crushing defeat at the South Mountain Base last time.
