BXBX NOVEL Chapter 54 - Sublimation Node
Lao Wade\'s gaze slightly darkened. "So, Commander Cao, are you a firm believer in the supremacy of Sublimators?"
Cao Gang\'s lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. "I\'m just stating a fact. As for the Minister, I neither agree nor deny. However, the arrogance of the Night Walkers needs to be restrained. They have already intervened in our city defense system\'s internal affairs, which is unacceptable."
Lao Wade\'s eyes suddenly brightened. "Commander Cao, are you suggesting..."
Cao Gang stood up, adjusting his clothes. "Later, I will visit the Minister at his residence, and then we can talk more about it."
Lao Wade stood up. "Understood."
"I\'ll take my leave then." The commander of the Iron Wall Legion nodded slightly and left the command hall.
After he left, Lao Wade snorted. "Cao, as the Lord\'s confidant, if he also wants to suppress the Night Walkers, does that mean... Huh, Chu Yan, it seems you won\'t be happy for long!"
Outside the command hall, as Cao Gang stepped out, a man in his forties approached him.
This man was also dressed in the black and blue uniform of the Iron Wall, with a golden shield emblem on his chest. Although he was not old, his black hair already showed some white strands, and there was an X-shaped scar on his left cheek.
"Did you get the information about that Night Walker Lieutenant?" Cao Gang casually asked.
"It\'s all here, but last night, the video footage at Qin\'s mansion..."
Cao Gang interrupted, "What happened? Was there interference?"
"When I tried to access the data this morning, I was informed that the security level of the relevant footage had been set to the highest."
Cao Gang paused, furrowing his brows, then changed the topic, "Dong Fang, you were transferred from the Night Walkers. What do you think of Commander Chu Yan?"
The man named Dong Fang answered without hesitation, "Commander Chu Yan is very strict with subordinates, but he also protects them fiercely. Commander Cao, you should be well aware of this. Seventeen years ago, in the incident involving someone named Su, Commander Chu Yan had a falling out with the generals because of it."
"Yeah, not long after that incident, you were transferred to my command." Cao Gang walked with his hands behind his back. "Chu Yan does protect his own. For the sake of a Lieutenant today, he nearly fought Lao Wade. It\'s not that surprising, don\'t you think?"
Dong Fang smiled but didn\'t answer.
...
Waking up, Tianyang saw the snowy white ceiling, realizing he was in the medical center.
After being caught by Han Shu and taken to the medical vehicle last night, he was directly sent to the medical center. Dr. Luo Shan was in charge of examining him, and after being tossed into the smart surgical pod to deal with the wounds, he was transferred to a regular ward in the middle of the night.
Currently, his injuries were basically stable. The more troublesome part was the cut on his waist made by Qu Gao.
This wound would require at least a week of rest. However, Dr. Luo Shan mentioned that after Xun came in the morning for treatment, he could be discharged in three days at most.
Thinking of Xun, Tianyang remembered the missed appointment last night and decided to apologize to the girl if he saw her.
At this moment, he felt a slight change in his occupational information.
Occupation Level 1: Assassin
Abilities: Weakness Sensing, Instant Annihilation
Sublimation Progress: 61%
Sublimation Nodes: 1
Next Occupation Level: Eradicator
……
The young man called out and sat up in the hospital bed, but his movement was too abrupt, causing pain in his waist wound. He quickly laid back down.
The Sublimation progress increased again, this time by a significant 21%! This confirmed Tianyang\'s speculation that the Avenger occupation seemed to gain a substantial boost in Sublimation progress with each completed revenge, including contributions from a Level 3 Ascender.
In addition, there was now one additional Sublimation Node in the occupational information. What could this be?
A Sublimation Node was a random essence of starlight generated during the Sublimation process. It could be infused into the domains of the mind, physical abilities, and wisdom, significantly enhancing one of these areas!
This information flowed through Tianyang\'s mind like gentle water.
The young man couldn\'t help but be surprised. The difference between Sublimators and ordinary people was closely related to starlight. The energy awakened by the contact with the Pillar of Star Nucleus filled the Ascender\'s body.
It endowed Ascenders with various occupational abilities while constantly transforming their bodies from the inside out, allowing life forms to continuously evolve.
Tianyang didn\'t expect that, during the Sublimation process, random starlight essences would be generated and they could be infused into three different domains.
Due to the randomness of Sublimation Nodes, even Sublimators of the same level with equivalent external conditions could have different advantages if one had more Sublimation Nodes.
However, what could be strengthened in these three domains?
When pondering this question, no corresponding information appeared in his mind. Tianyang decided to temporarily reserve this Sublimation Node. He would figure out the benefits of strengthening the mind, body, and wisdom before deciding where to allocate it.
Clang!
The door of the ward suddenly pushed open, and a figure entered—it was Han Shu.
He saw Tianyang sitting up and exclaiming, "You’re awake! Damn, I have to say, you\'re really lucky, you bastard!"
Tianyang looked puzzled.
Han Shu pulled over a chair and sat down beside the hospital bed. "Just got the news. The Fortress won\'t hold you accountable for what you did last night. But, for the next year, the entire Night Walkers will have 15% of the financial budget deducted. So be prepared; many people might be angry with you because of this."
Tianyang smiled wryly. "It\'s unavoidable. After all, I caused trouble for everyone."
Han Shu snorted, "As long as you know, because of you, I\'ll have to drink fewer bottles of good wine this year. Also, we\'ve watched the footage of your attack on the Qin mansion last night. You actually managed to deceive Qu Gao and expose the sniper position. It\'s indeed clever. A Level 3 Sniper Master is no ordinary person. Luckily, you didn\'t give him a chance to unleash his full strength; otherwise, I\'d be visiting you in the morgue now."
Captain, are you praising me or mocking me…
