Chapter 921: Recognition and Two People's Thoughts

Translator: _Min_ Editor: Caron_

When the war officially concluded, it was already the end of December.

Other than the weather being colder and the snowfall being heavier, people didn't detect any difference associated with the seasonal change.

After a war, although Second Army was at an advantageous position in the latter half of the war, the force still suffered a high casualty number, and most of the survivors were wounded and exhausted.

According to the orders from the General Office, Second Army would be replaced with the Zhao Gang-led Third Army and to handover the defense of Wu City. The replaced Second Army would go to Fishbone base for reorganization. At the same time, the General would personally preside over the ceremony and reward the soldiers' meritorious service.

Due to heavy snowfall, the road from Wanghai to Hongcheng was completely blocked off, and airships were the only transportation option between the two places. It wasn't until the end of December that the two armies completed the exchange of defense.

Therefore, the ceremony was set on the eve before New Year's Eve.

This ceremony, which symbolized glory and honor, also gave the 2019 New Year a special sense of delight.

"...Granting Private First Class Hu Cheng, the Knight Medal!" A bright and rough voice reverberated throughout Fishbone base square.

At the ceremony, Hu Cheng's face was flushed, and his chest was raised high. He saluted Jiang Chen. After General Jiang personally put on the medal for him, they shook hands. Then he took back a half-step, and he took the uniform that symbolized a Knight and a cheque with one thousand credit in a wooden box.


According to NAC's regulations, outstanding soldiers would be awarded the Knight status, meaning he would be able to own a set of power armor and lead a five-man platoon. He would also have the opportunity to transfer from the front line to the military government system as an official.

Although General Jiang didn't say a word when they shook hands, Hu Cheng was shuddering in excitement. Shaking hands with The General who commanded the entire NAC and receiving his recognition was an absolute glory in itself.

In the tavern, he drank with his comrades freely. Hu Cheng then dragged his drunk body and returned home at Fishbone base.

It was a simple apartment. From the coffee table covered with dust and the miscellaneous things stacked up around the house, he lived alone. But it didn't matter; he would soon receive a new place. Any person who received Knight status has the right to own property in the Garden of Eden.

It was a privilege that belonged to those who made outstanding contributions to the NAC.

By the way, the function of the Garden of Eden was of course not just the unimaginably large CNC plantation towers; the living space that occupied 50 percent of the area was the main function of the garden. As a closed, independent biosphere unit, the pre-war scenery only existed in the Garden of Eden.

There was no chilling blizzard; only eternal spring.

He collapsed on his bed and his snores quickly filled the room.

In his dream, he dreamed of his goddess. In his dream, she finally agreed to his proposal and was willing to be his wife. In his dream, he held her delicate hand and put a ring on her. In his dream, he was wearing the power armor and leading his platoon to insert the NAC flag among the ruins of the Northern Alliance Area...
