Returning to White Poplar Barrier City again, Qin Shi's identity was vastly different.
From a rookie soldier at the Huang Quan training camp to a first-class combat hero on the Western Front, a recipient of commendations.
It hasn't been long in the blink of an eye.
The Kirov airship slowly descended, landing on the wide platform.
Qin Shi stepped down the gangway as the fierce wind blew and lifted his coat.
He adjusted his wide-brimmed hat, saluted, and then shook hands with Yao Guodong, who had come to greet him.
"Greetings, Chief."
Yao Guodong was visibly excited, as this was a combat hero from their White Poplar Barrier City, naturally sharing in the glory.
"You've worked hard, Xiao Qin."
Yao Guodong, not one for words, said dryly.
The fourth-level disaster's mighty followers were strong enough to destroy a Barrier City without defense systems.
Qin Shi's front-line defeat of them meant he could single-handedly defend the city and ensure the position was inviolable.
