Chapter 1738: Chapter 36: Legal Conscription?

On this day, the scouts scattered around Jia Yan finally discovered the true power of their target, Jia Yan!

Secondary level?

They couldn’t even catch his shadow before being annihilated, as the terrifying Jia Yan possessed a mysterious way to come and go.

Even though, by any measure, he appeared to be only a secondary level, once his gaze locked onto a secondary level creature, they would instantly feel as if they were on the brink of death!

“This! Alright, Lord Jia Yan, I will inform the family immediately.”

“Yes, Lord, I will contact our company’s upper management.”

A group of secondary level or high-space level creatures anxiously complied with the orders.

When Jia Yan appeared in a way far beyond their imagination, they realized that the creature they believed was only so powerful was actually an unfathomable strong one!

The Elf family also received the recruitment message quickly.

“Fuya, that Lord Jia Yan has sent a recruitment message. Aren’t you on good terms with him? Can you ask what’s happening?”

The Elf family had already been languishing since their recent upheaval; even though they were no longer suppressed by other joint forces, they were far from their former glory.

So now, the head of the family, Fuya’s grandfather, who seemed like a handsome middle-aged man, hurried to his granddaughter Fuya’s room to have a private talk.

“What? Recruitment, what is Jia Yan up to now…”

Fuya thought of Jia Yan and felt a mix of embarrassment and anger. Others thought she had some relations with Jia Yan, but in reality, she had actively pursued him, and Jia Yan did not want her!

She had been staying home, claiming to be too tired to leave or go to school, but upon hearing Jia Yan’s name, she suddenly froze and couldn’t help showing anger, not wanting to continue the topic.

But seeing her grandfather’s mournful expression, she couldn’t harden her heart.

“Alright, I’ll ask. Grandfather, arrange a car for me; I’m returning to school.”

She stood up, her graceful and beautiful figure enough to make any man feel his pulse race.

Unfortunately, the man she wanted to love treated her coldly.

Before long, Fuya returned to the Fifth Satellite University.

However, she discovered that things seemed far beyond her imagination.

For on her way to school, a multitude of families and large enterprises had already begun their recruitment efforts.

She opened the network tools and found that this vast recruitment wasn’t only happening on the Fifth Star but had spread to all major satellites of the White Seed Star. Even the main planet was entirely shut down, undergoing the highest level of recruitment and war preparation!

“This… is this all Jia Yan’s doing? His power is far stronger than I imagined, who is he really?”

Seeing this scene, Fuya’s expression changed sharply.

“But it might not be that way; maybe he’s working for a certain lord. After all, he’s that Jia Yan, how could he be a terrifying big figure?”

Though her heart harbored doubts, Fuya still wasn’t willing to believe Jia Yan could be a terrifying figure capable of such sights.

The nature of intelligent creatures is like this; the closer the people, the harder it is for them to imagine someone near them as an impressive figure.

But the situation now is something she does not want to believe but must.

“Hmm? That figure standing on the high platform…”

“Is that big stinky bird?”

When Fuya was in the car, she saw that in a vast square where soldiers were gathered, her beautiful eyes widened in shock again.

For there, at the center amidst thousands of soldiers on high ground, a creature basking in countless gazes was the black bird she had always looked down upon.

“You are all serving Lord Jia Yan, no, Lord Assassin now, listen carefully, put your full effort in, anyone defying the orders will face death, and even the death of their family as the consequence.”

The black bird shouted wildly.

Even though some soldiers below had decent strength but disdained the mere ordinary creature on the platform, not even at Earth Level, a secondary level creature soon came forward and dragged the weaker creature away for disrespect.

“Is this still the stupid bird I know?”

Fuya was dumbfounded.

In reality, the black bird still thought he was dreaming while shouting on the high platform.

He was having a fine day when suddenly Jia Yan pulled him from his dream.

Then a pile of uniforms was thrown on him, and Jia Yan said things like ‘no choice,’ ‘no trustworthy people,’ and entrusted him.

After being bombarded with a plethora of files, he was arranged by secondary level creatures onto this square, transforming into an officer being called upon by countless people…

Now the black bird preferred to believe he was dreaming.

Fortunately, Jia Yan chose the right person because the creature’s public speaking ability was quite good, and the effect was decent.

After watching the black bird’s speech, Fuya was about to tell the driver to continue into the campus when the luxury car was stopped by a squad of soldiers.

“Can’t enter? Fine, I’ll walk from here, I’m a student at this school.”

Fuya helplessly got off the bus, but fortunately, after verifying her identity, she was no longer stopped.

Entering the campus, Fuya instantly felt that her familiar alma mater was no longer as she knew it.

Less than half a day since Jia Yan issued the draft order, there were already many soldiers conducting inspections on students in this school.

“Everyone, come over here. Violating draft terms is illegal, we have the right to arrest violators.”

“Legal drafting, legally fulfilling recruitment duties.”

The loudspeakers boomed all over the university campus.

Seeing the campus so different from her memory, Fuya was stunned.

“What is this all about? What is this all about?”

She had never witnessed such scenes, and as a young elf girl, her life was short, less than a few decades, so she hadn’t experienced war and battle.

Finally, she arrived at Jia Yan’s old dormitory, only to be stopped by soldiers with unfriendly expressions.

“I want to see Jia Yan.” She demanded boldly without fear.

“How dare you call the Lord by name! Take her away, check if she’s a spy!”

A creature looking like a leader shouted sharply at the soldiers around.

Needless to say, in front of Lord Jia Yan, these soldiers who managed to get in through the back door would surely exert themselves.

Instantly, a batch of soldiers approached, as if Fuya was indeed some kind of saboteur.

“Let her in.”

Suddenly, a voice echoed in everyone’s ears.

“Yes.” The leader soldier responded and signaled the surrounding soldiers to release Fuya.

Fuya’s face was already pale. She composed herself and walked into Jia Yan’s dormitory looking as calm as she could manage.

She thought Jia Yan would have changed in a military uniform like the others outside.

Yet when she saw Jia Yan, he was sitting in his dorm room just like always. Nothing seemed different, not even his expression that always made her uncomfortable with its calmness.

“Jia Yan, are you crazy!? What’s going on!” Fuya impulsively blurted out.

But as soon as she spoke, she regretted it, for everything she had witnessed today made her understand fully that the being named Jia Yan before her was not the ordinary student she once thought, but a person with immense, unknown influence.

Jia Yan glanced at her, then issued an order from his hand before raising his head.

“Fuya, you’re also a student at this university, right? According to the clauses, you must also join the army under emergency regulations. Go register. I’ll try to get you a safe position.”

“What emergency clause, what joining the army? I…” Fuya was completely confused.

She did know that there was a temporary regulation on the White Seed Star, the full galaxy mobilization clause, under which any normal citizen of the Galaxy couldn’t escape recruitment.

This is the price that must be paid for survival in the Stellar Battlefield.

Fuya understood this point but was shocked because she knew this clause could only be issued by one entity…

That is the strongest and ultimate ruler of the entire galaxy who can issue such a command.

Previously, the strongest ruler of the White Seed Star was that Stellar Level being named White Seed, also like a Divine Spirit to the entire galaxy.

But White Seed was annihilated by an external Stellar-Level creature, the ‘Assassin,’ so now the strongest, highest ruler should be the Assassin.

Since when did this Jia Yan have the ability to issue such commands?

Fuya knew that these series of draft and mobilization orders were all issued from the mouth of this being called Jia Yan.

“I said you must join, so you must join. Now let me tell you my identity…”

Jia Yan stood up.

His once seemingly unimposing figure, at this moment in Fuya’s clear eyes, suddenly rose, reaching a level almost beyond any strong being she had ever seen!

“I, named Jia Yan, am currently the Chief Military and Political Executive Officer to Lord Assassin. What I say and do, whether right or wrong, represents Lord Assassin himself. Now, do you understand my identity?”

Jia Yan gently chuckled.

Fuya didn’t know how she left Jia Yan’s dorm room.

She only felt everything was so unbelievable.

To think an ordinary classmate thought easily dismissible, had previously defeated many strong challengers along the way, and now had transformed into the so-called ‘Chief Military and Political Executive Officer’?

Doesn’t this mean that her presumed ordinary classmate Jia Yan has always been the horrifying authority, second only to one, above tens of thousands on the whole White Seed Star?
