After settling matters with the Blood God Legion, Juggler and Lan Kai set off once more, leaving the Blood God Legion.
Of course, before leaving, they made several more trips deep into the abyssal passage, capturing quite a few mutated abyssal creatures and bringing them back. The abyssal creatures were so frightened that they retreated five hundred li, not daring to launch another attack through the passage anytime soon.
The Blood God Legion acquired even more samples of mutated abyssal creatures and immediately began intensive research. At the same time, they upgraded the legion's equipment, determined to maintain the blockade against abyssal creatures even without relying on Juggler and Lan Kai.
As a reward for Juggler and Lan Kai, the Blood God Legion gave Juggler quite a bit of equipment exclusive to the legion, including a mecha and various weapons. They also awarded Lan Kai an honorary military rank. Should he choose to join the Blood God Legion in the future, that honorary rank could be directly converted into an official one.
"It's actually lieutenant colonel... I never expected the Blood God Legion to grant me such a high rank. And once I officially join the Blood God Legion, it can be converted directly into a real rank."
As they left the Blood God Legion, Lan Kai could not help but sigh.
The rank of lieutenant colonel might not sound as impressive as general, but its status was already far from low. Within the Blood God Legion, it was equivalent to a deputy regiment commander's position.
At Lan Kai's age, even those with the most powerful backers could not possibly obtain such a rank.
After all, even the most influential noblewoman could not pull that off in the military, much less within the Blood God Legion, where military merit mattered
