The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

In the blink of an eye, several days have passed.

But for Sherlock, today is a big day...

The day Gu Xu was discharged from the hospital.

However, Gu Xu himself strongly opposed this decision.

In the special care ward of the Supreme Command, Gu Xu clung tightly to the edge of the medical pod, looking like a cat being forcibly dragged to take a bath.

The old Minister of Logistics, Chen, along with two burly military doctors, were pulling him out, their faces covered in sweat.

"Major General Gu, please have mercy and come out already!"

Minister Chen was so anxious that he kept slapping his thigh, and the wrinkles on his face were all squeezed together.

"No! I'm still dizzy! My legs are still weak! My energy hasn't recovered! I think I can still be saved, let me soak for another two days!"

Gu Xu howled shamelessly, gripping the hatch tightly with both hands.

Minister Chen, enraged, laughed coldly, pointing at the pale blue liquid and saying, "The top-grade repair fluid you've consumed these past few days—one gram is equivalent to a courtyard house within the second ring road of Longjing!"

"The money you've spent on these past few days is enough to buy half of Longjing's Second Ring Road! If you keep going like this, our entire logistics department will have to beg for food under the overpass tomorrow!"

Gu Xu rolled his eyes and retorted confidently, "I've shed blood for Shenxia and risked my life for the East Sea! Even if I haven't done anything meritorious, I've certainly put in the effort, right?"

"What's wrong with taking a few more baths? You're just crossing the river and then burning the bridge, discarding the donkey after it has served its purpose!"

Minister Chen sighed helplessly. He knew that reasoning with this kid was pointless, so he resorted to his trump card.

"Minister Li said that we're holding a promotion ceremony for you today. If you're late, half of your bonus will be deducted, and there will be no meal allowance."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a "whoosh" was heard.

Gu Xu, like a slippery eel, leaped out of the medical pod in an instant and landed steadily on the ground, his movements so agile that they even left a trail of afterimages.

He casually grabbed a towel from the side and wiped the water off his clothes, looking at Minister Chen with a serious expression: "You should have said so earlier! It's not good to keep the leader waiting."

"For us soldiers, the most important thing is a strong sense of time!"

Minister Chen's lips twitched violently; he thought to himself, "Your face changes faster than turning the pages of a book."

Just then, the door to the ward was pushed open, and Su Qiong walked in carrying a brand-new military uniform.

She looked at Gu Xu's greedy and greedy appearance and shook her head helplessly.

"Hurry up and change, everyone's waiting for you."

Su Qiong handed over the military uniform, her tone gentle.

Gu Xu took the military uniform and shook it twice.

The material and the workmanship clearly indicate this isn't a cheap product.

He quickly changed his clothes and stood in front of the mirror to look at himself.

It has to be said that clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse.

Wearing this military uniform, coupled with his already handsome face, Gu Xu did indeed exude the heroic bearing of a tough soldier.

"Let's go, sir."

Gu Xu straightened his collar and raised an eyebrow at Su Qiong. "What's going on today? Li Weiguo isn't just going to give me an award certificate and a 500 yuan supermarket gift card to get rid of me, is he?"

The two walked side by side down the spacious corridor of the headquarters.

Su Qiong glanced at him and said irritably, "You'll know when you get there."

"I can only tell you that today, apart from Li Suyuan, the commander of the Qiongqi Legion who is fighting against the elves on the southwestern front, and the various saints who went to provide support, almost all the legion commanders of the Shenxia Empire's major legions have arrived."

Gu Xu gasped, his steps abruptly halting.

"Everyone's here? Such a grand display?"

Gu Xu stroked his chin, his eyes becoming somewhat wary: "They wouldn't be coming as a group to borrow my items, would they? Those demigods have very powerful items; it's hard to guarantee they won't be envious!"

"I'm telling you beforehand, I have no money, and I won't give you my life either."

Su Qiong really wanted to kick him into the trash can next to her.

"Can't you think of anything other than money?"

Su Qiong said through gritted teeth.

"No... I'm just an ordinary person."

Gu Xu shrugged and casually added a comment.

Su Qiong's lips began to twitch uncontrollably. Helpless, she could only glare at Chen Xu speechlessly and quicken her pace.

Gu Xu chuckled and quickly followed.

……

Before long, the two arrived at the entrance of the Supreme Command's auditorium.

"salute!"

"Snapped!"

The guards on both sides snapped to attention and saluted in unison, their eyes fixed on Gu Xu with fervent eyes.

Gu Xu nodded, returned the greeting casually, and then turned his gaze forward.

Gu Xu was no stranger to the two heavy mahogany doors in front of him. The last time he was here, he was a newcomer who had just begun to make a name for himself in Donghai.

Today, he is already a hero who saved the East China Sea defense line.

"Are you ready?"

Su Qiong stood by the door and spoke with a light laugh.

"Always be prepared."

Gu Xu composed himself, adopting the demeanor of a profound and unfathomable master.

Two guards pushed the gate open forcefully.

With a soft creak, the previously noisy auditorium instantly fell silent.

Brush brush!

Hundreds of eyes, like searchlights, were fixed on Gu Xu at the door.

There was so much in those eyes.

There was curiosity, awe, gratitude, and even a hint of looking at a monster.

After all, this is a ruthless person who single-handedly turned four seafood demigods to ashes and even shattered a source-level projection.

Gu Xu felt a little uneasy being stared at by hundreds of eyes.

He coughed twice, straightened his back, and strode inside with an air of indifference.

They had only taken a few steps when a towering figure came to greet them.

"Good lad!"

Zhou Yi laughed loudly and slapped Gu Xu's shoulder hard with his large, fan-like hand.

The force of the blow was so great that it almost knocked out the breakfast that Gu Xu had just eaten.

Gu Xu grimaced and rubbed his shoulder: "Commander Zhou, you're repaying kindness with enmity! I just got out of the hospital, and faking an accident is very expensive!"

Zhou Yi laughed heartily, but his eyes were slightly red: "You're tough as nails, what's a little bit of strength to me?"

"I owe you my life for what happened in the East China Sea. If you ever need the God-Slaying Army, just say the word, and you'll face any danger without batting an eye!"

Li Podi, who was standing next to him, also came over. He stroked his chin, looked Gu Xu up and down, and clicked his tongue in amazement: "Look at this complexion, it's rosy and glowing. It doesn't look like you've been overworked at all."

"One Source-level projection, four demigods! I'm impressed by your strength!"

Gu Xu quickly waved his hand, shaking his head like a rattle drum: "Look at what you're saying, I'm actually very weak right now, I'm only putting on a brave face because I'm not here to collect the money! As for those results, luck, it's all just luck."

Lu Xingchen stood to the side, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, and said with a smile, "Major General Gu is too modest."

"Luck is also a part of ability."

"Moreover, the luck to kill four demigods in a row is enough to go down in history."
