Chapter 765: Chapter 765

After the celebratory feast, Du You returned to his assigned lodgings with his two sisters. The very next morning, Du You was summoned to the office of Colonel Hade. Googlᴇ search 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱

Unlike the jovial figure during the banquet, Colonel Hade exuded a solemn demeanor, his eyes alive and serious. There was an before him, enough to make the knees buckle of those of faint hearts.

However, Du You disregarded the pressure entirely, which pleased Colonel Hade greatly.

"Du You, you’ve made great contributions to our base. Now you have two choices, one is to stay at the base while the other is to move to the front line and contribute to our upcoming assault."

"I choose to go to the front line." Du You replied without hesitation. In order to fulfill his mission, he needed to constantly be in battle. There wasn’t much time for him to wait around. Although the time he could spend here was lengthy, it still had restrictions.

"Good, you shouldn’t get any less of my chosen soldier." Colonel Hade’s smile was more relaxed. He got up very satisfied and patted Du You’s shoulder. The adjutant standing nearby watches them, envy flashing in his eyes. Not everyone gets this kind of treatment, Du You was very fortunate indeed.

"Give him the stuff." Hade ordered his adjutant.

The adjutant walked forward, handing Du You a box. When Du You opened the box, it contained a set of military uniform, a shoulder badge, a badge, and a small booklet.

The shoulder badge and the booklet were a set that recorded his identity. Du You was surprised to find that he had been promoted to the rank of lieutenant. While it’s common to be promoted for meritorious deeds, to be promoted to the rank of lieutenant in one move was quite unexpected.

You should know that asteroid No. 66’s highest commander was only Colonel Hade. Just one colonel on a small asteroid was too extravagance. Generals were usually big figures who controlled a entire star sector.

With the merit he earned this time, he skipped past the ranks of private first class and sergeant major, progressing straight to officer rank. He skipped so many levels to get it, which was definitely extraordinary.

Even on the battlefield, this kind of promotion was very surprising.

"What, are you surprised? No need to be. As a fourth-tier superpower man, given some time, you could at least be a school level military officer. But since you’re still a newbie, you could only be promoted to this level."

Du You felt like he might’ve underestimated the value of a fourth-tier superpower man. Within the large yet sparsely populated Star Ring Alliance, anyone with superpowers holds high status, not even mentioning someone of his own caliber.

In the eyes of others, a fourth-tier superpower man could compete against a warship, one and the same with dreadnoughts.

Du You looked at the badge. It was the special merit badge for his achievements. It represented that the role he played in this battle was at Level 4. Indeed, that made sense, he was able to take down a fourth-tier warship all on his own.

Du You thought about it. There wasn’t any disadvantage, so he simply accepted both the merit and the military rank. Seeing that Du You accepted, Colonel Hade was even more delighted as this was greatly beneficial to him.

"Now, you can choose where you want to join the front line. You can choose from these few options."

Colonel Hade’s preferential treatment for Du You was indeed remarkable. Others would have simply ordered, but Du You was allowed to choose.

Du You scanned the options and knew instantly where he’d choose. He didn’t consider the warships since he only has one. The mechanized units were meaningless to him, mere burdens.

As for the superpower troop, there was none available on his side. There was no advanced Mecha on this battlefield. There were quite a few third-tier Mechas, but his piloting skills were not up to par. Utilizing these machines would only decrease his battle power; he’d be better off using his own ability.

At last, Du You could only choose the Interstellar Flight Forces, which had the best mobility.

"Have you chosen? This place would suit you quite well. But be careful, not far from there is an enemy base. It won’t be easy to deal with."

"With your current rank, you can command a thousand of our flying soldiers. You can replenish these soldiers every month, but there’s a limit. The most you can replenish in a month is two hundred. The quota can’t be saved up. I hope you use them wisely."

He was commanding troops? Du You didn’t expect that, a thousand of them no less. This made Du You, who lacked leadership experience, a bit frustrated. Fortunately, these weren’t real people but robots.

As for the number of a thousand, well, they weren’t high ranked. They were supposed to have third-tier combat ability but their rating was only second-tier. To Du You, these one thousand soldiers weren’t worthy of notice.

The next day, Du You set off immediately, arriving at the special Air Force command center and obtained his equipment. In actual fact, all it was was a unique rocket accelerator, mounted at the back and capable of supporting air travel using a small thruster. It was really agile. There was also a protective barrier surrounding it that could deflect common attacks.

His flying soldiers were also equipped similarly. However, they were robots, designed to be integrated with their equipment. At that moment, all one thousand robots were ready and able to take off at any given moment.

"Commander, this is the mission handed down from above. I am your liaison officer, Sera."

Before Du You, a voluptuous blonde woman with emerald eyes was making flirtatious gestures. It turns out, the army had equipped him with such a luscious companion. From a glance, Du You knew this wasn’t an emotionless Biochemical Man.

After all, he was a commanding officer now. Still, he was a bit troubled adapting to such a suggestive manner. This type wasn’t Du You’s preference anyway. His taste had been spoiled by his two sisters. As Professionals, their abilities in various aspects were far better than ordinary women.

The two sisters moved seamlessly one step forward. Upon seeing the sister’s attractive looks compared to her own, Sera shrugged helplessly. In any case, she was the communication officer here, very important.

Plus, the only people on base were the four of them. Who knows what opportunities being around each other day in and day out could bring.

"Let me take you on a tour. A large scale war might be looming, so I’m afraid we have quite a bit of work to do."

Having learned through her own means that Du You was a fourth-tier superpower man and his two sisters weren’t simple either, Sera would not be foolish enough to cross the sisters. But she wouldn’t pass up on the chance to get closer to Du You either.

The two sisters huffed lightly, moving forward to neatly separate her from Du You. Du You just chuckled and didn’t say anything. "Let’s go. I need to familiarize myself first with the combat capabilities of these flying soldiers. Oh, and by the way, how much authority do I have?"
