Chapter 171 Blood Lightning (I)
171 Blood Lightning (I)
Today was a special day for the Imperial Lightning Fort. Thousands of cadets were in a perfect military formation in the central area of the fort, all in absolute silence.
Although everybody was a cadet, the ones at the front row were the stars, and their auras were the greatest. They were the ones that obtained the highest scores in their classes, harvested the most military merits, and whose cultivations rose above all others, with many of them reaching Level 4 Wave Warrior!
On a large battlefield with dozens of thousands of soldiers fighting, the damage a single Level 4 Wave Warrior could do was minor. Still, that power could allow them to preserve their lives, something those at Level 3 and beneath found much more challenging.
The fate of most soldiers with a Level 4 cultivation or higher was not dying on the battlefield but enduring wounds so severe they could not return. In that case, the Imperial Military Force would give them administrative jobs in other branches.
Respect and care for war veterans was a rule engraved in the empire by the First Emperor of Humankind, Adam.
If you give your health to the Imperial Military Force, this one will pay you back.
The front row of the military formation had faces Cain would have recognized, like Levi, Lurin, Orin, Lumir, and Zamir. There were also individuals who had kept an extremely low profile during the military academy but finally decided to show their true power.
Those cadets chose to reveal their power since this ceremony not only marked the end of their life in the military academy, but it was also the time when those that had done exceptional work this past year would be rewarded.
Suppose their battle power and military merits were high enough. In that case, the Imperial Military Force could reward them with titles such as First Lieutenant, granting them a giant leap forward in their path in the military.
.....
Levi stood by Lurin’s side, and the duo could not help but show complicated expressions as they noticed the one cadet that was missing. Cain had not returned to the fort and would miss the graduation.
