Chapter 890 - 502: Embers of the Long Night (Part 11)

Although Eternal Night has no time, nor does the room have a timer, his heartbeat frequency and count are constant. With just a thought, information about changes in his body instinctively appears in his mind.

Precise like a machine, not off by a second or a minute.

Just as Su Huan was planning to set off, he suddenly noticed Qin Mian and the others returning. Behind them, besides the original dozen or so people, there were over a hundred warriors. Qin Mian and the others entered the room, while the remaining people settled down in the surrounding buildings and arranged the guards themselves.

After entering, Qin Mian squinted slightly. The bright lights in the room made him somewhat uncomfortable, and his feet were firmly planted on the carpet at the door. Only after he found Su Huan’s figure did he smile and say.

"How’s your stay here? Anything else you need?"

Su Huan waved his hand, cutting off the main light source, leaving only the decorative lights in the villa. The dim atmosphere instantly relaxed Qin Mian considerably.

Looking at the sweat stains on the latter’s face and the tired expression at the corner of his eyes, he said in surprise, "You’ve been busy all night?"

Qin Mian sighed, "One brigade was beaten down to a regiment, and only now have we barely finished cleaning up the battlefield."

"Tough."

Qin Mian wiped the dirt off his face and smiled bitterly, "Compared to fighting, we’d rather follow behind you and clean up the battlefield every battle."

Su Huan didn’t respond to the hope in Qin Mian’s words, as there were still people outside waiting for him to go out.

"By the way, these people you brought back..."

Su Huan pointed to the guards standing outside the window.

"Almost forgot to tell you, this is the reinforcement the brigade sent us, they’re joining you tomorrow to go to United Command."

Su Huan was taken aback, "Reinforcement for me?"

Qin Mian said obviously, "Yeah, you’re now the commander of our Shovel Company."

Su Huan felt a headache, "That temporary appointment hasn’t been revoked yet?"

"Your appointment was issued by the division headquarters, only they have the authority to revoke it." Qin Mian suddenly became serious, "And your mission is the most important. The lieutenant colonel said, if he didn’t have a task, he would personally lead the whole 892 Synthetic Brigade to escort you. Now there’s just one company, don’t refuse."

Seeing Qin Mian’s persistent gaze, Su Huan reluctantly sent him to rest.

Looking at the warriors outside the window, the train conductor couldn’t help but scratch his head. He had just run away from a pile of responsibilities, but now he inexplicably became the company commander again. What is this?

Originally, he was planning to set off directly, but now he couldn’t leave. Although he didn’t need sleep, these ordinary warriors had stayed up for two days and nights and were already on the brink of exhaustion.

Sighing, Su Huan cut off the power in the room and went outside.

As soon as he stepped outside, two soldiers saluted him and whispered, "Commander."

Su Huan looked at the bloodshot eyes of the two, "How long haven’t you slept?"

The two warriors looked at each other and stuttered, unable to say a time.

Su Huan waved his hand, "Go inside and sleep, no need to stand guard tonight."

The soldier on the left hesitated, "No need, commander, you go rest, this is our duty."

The handsome young man in front of them merely raised an eyebrow, "Seems like the commander’s words aren’t that effective."

The pitch-black eyes burned with two wild fires, carrying an indescribable smile, like night wind blowing through a stone forest, ghostly cries are hidden in this indifferent darkness.

Even though Su Huan had completely restrained his presence, the two soldiers’ legs were trembling, their foreheads sweating, just standing here felt like a fever.

The soldier said with difficulty, "Commander, we didn’t mean that."

"Then go back to sleep."

Seeing their appearance, Su Huan snorted coldly and turned around.

It was clearly a reprimand, but the two soldiers felt relieved all over. After saluting, they returned to sleep without any worries.

As they walked away, the guard said in a low voice, "Our new commander has a really intimidating presence, just looking at me made me feel uneasy, just like the moment of falling from a bar, my mind went blank."

"What did you expect? I saw it with my own eyes back then, just pointing a finger and over a hundred heavy cavalry vanished, I thought I saw a god!"

"Where did Shovel Company dig up such an incredible person?"

"Don’t ask too much, maybe he can hear. But with such a commander, things will get easier for us."

"Yeah, it’s a pity Old Gu didn’t make it..."

"Hey, don’t mention it, don’t mention it."

If Su Huan paid a bit more attention, he could naturally hear their conversation from such a close distance, but he naturally wasn’t idle enough to eavesdrop on two warriors’ chat.

In the past, this super sensory perception was left to his instincts to control, which automatically filtered the information he needed, just like the effect of a lookout.

Su Huan made a round, sent all the guards back to sleep, and went alone to the previous battlefield.

There were still a few people cleaning the battlefield.

Without disturbing them, Su Huan returned to his three-story small building, unfolded the largest range of perception and domain on the rooftop balcony, and stayed for eight hours, sounded the wake-up call twice, allowing them to sleep well.

In the temporary dormitory villa, the bluish light gradually faded, sunlight like gauze flowed through the corners of the windows. The sofa in the living room was pushed to the corner, and a dozen soldiers in uniform were lying on the carpet, Qin Mian sleeping at the edge, suddenly feeling the warmth on his face.

He shivered violently, woke up suddenly, and then looked around, finding his comrades all sleeping in a dense, safe feeling surging from the heart.
