God-level Hero

Chapter 65: Chapter 62: Infiltrating the Monastery Plan

Followed by the paparazzi all the way, Da Fei swaggered into Saint Paul Navy Headquarters, casually waving the letter of recommendation. The guards immediately let him through.

The paparazzi couldn’t help but exclaim: “Just came out from Duke Mansion and now he can enter the Military Department? That’s freaking incredible, isn’t it?”

Ha-ha-ha-ha! See that? That’s how freaking incredible I am! You wanna mess with me? Welcome, you’re bound to become the top ten youth director of the poverty alleviation office.

“Stop! No loiterers allowed in!”

Huh? Da Fei, astonished, turned to look and sure enough, it was Catherine being stopped by the guards. So there’s this annoying rule, huh? Da Fei had no choice but to tell his likewise baffled sweetheart: “Wait for me at the hotel.”

Catherine chuckled: “Okay, Captain.”

Hmph, as if I’d give you paparazzi the chance to harass my sweetheart. Wait for me at the hotel, I can finally utter such a cool line, haha.

Guided by the guard, Da Fei arrived at the officer registration desk.

Behind the big desk, a fat military officer with an arrogant demeanor was slouching as he looked down his nose at Da Fei, snorted and asked: “Which unit are you from?”

Da Fei took out the letter and handed it over: “I was recommended by a noble person.”

The officer snorted coldly, grabbed the letter, tearing open the seal, and said sharply: “I don’t care who recommended you, once you’re here, you better obey, otherwise, you will experience the ruthlessness of military law—”

The fat officer’s voice suddenly stopped as he stared at the letter for a while, then at Da Fei, also for quite some time.

Da Fei laughed coldly in his heart, are you scared by the backer behind me? Acting all high and mighty like a king, why don’t you come shine my shoes? The feeling of clinging to power is just too damn good! Ha-ha-ha-ha!

“Hmph!” The officer gave a cold snort, sat up straight and said solemnly: “From now on, you’re a registered probationary Lieutenant. In any case, you know your own background very well, and should therefore be even stricter with yourself. Don’t disgrace or tarnish the wisdom of that noble person, otherwise—severe military law awaits!” No sooner had he finished than he threw a shoulder rank insignia onto the desk with a slap.

Da Fei was startled! Not only did you not shine my shoes but now you’re giving me a hard time, are you like one of those sly old soldiers? Never mind, I’m an extra-official personnel anyway, won’t lower myself to his level.

Da Fei hee-heed: “The nobleman is right—”

The fat officer shouted loudly: “No giggling with me! Address me as your superior! You better get it clear, this is the military!”

What the heck, why so pretentious!

Da Fei raised his hand to salute: “Yes! Sir!”

“Idiot! It’s the other hand!”

For crying out loud! Da Fei could only switch hands: “Yes! Sir!”

Damn it all to hell! Get regular? What’s regular anyway, I’d rather be a pirate and feed this fat pig to the turtles than be your damn regular army! Deliberately annoying players, right? But, it would be another story if you made me the commander directly.

The fat officer then, at peace, said: “You have a noble person’s mission, take the military rank and get busy.”

——System Prompt: You have obtained the probationary Lieutenant rank in the Bright Alliance Navy, your Command Power temporarily increased by +100.

——Beginner’s Prompt: Ranks and official positions can greatly enhance your Command Power. However, the Command Power provided by ranks and official positions are fixed values and are not influenced by your Hero profession, Leadership Skill, or any artifacts.

Da Fei continued to salute: “Reporting to the Sir, I am looking for Logistics Officer, Lady Tabia.”

The fat officer was taken aback: “Logistics officer? Lady? Is there such a person?” Then, laughing suddenly: “Go find her in the mess hall yourself.”

“Yes, Sir!”

Guided by the guards, Da Fei arrived at the Military Department’s backyard, and amongst a pile of people busy butchering pigs, washing vegetables, chopping wood, he found Lady Tabia, whom Makar mentioned. And upon seeing her, he was shocked!

Oh my gosh! I originally thought it would be a beautiful Holy Knight or a beautiful Priestess, but it turned out to be a plump dwarf lady! No, a female dwarf lady! What the heck, with all the commanding and gesticulating, it’s obviously a Chief Cook, right? This is the Logistics Officer that Makar was talking about? But how could someone as important as Makar know about such a minor character? Could this lady be really strong? There’s no halo around her feet, she looks like a common NPC and not even a Hero, right?

“Tabia, someone’s looking for you!”

The dwarf lady turned impatiently: “Speak up, I’m busy!”

Da Fei took out the letter: “I’ve been sent by a noble person.”

“Which noble person!” The dwarf lady impatiently snatched the letter, and all of a sudden, her barrel-like body shook tremendously! That expression, the tears welling up in her eyes—holy cow! Old man, what’s with your taste?

The dwarf lady came to her senses and waved a hand: “To the storage room!”

In the storeroom piled with food, the Dwarf Lady asked with a trembling voice, “Does that respected person have any orders?”

Ah, is there really a need to be so excited? I’m not interested in gossiping about the Dwarf Lady; let’s get straight to business.

Da Fei then said, “The respected person asked you to help me get into the Holy Mother Monastery to find a Nun Hero.”

The Dwarf Lady was taken aback, “Get you into the Holy Mother Monastery? Impossible! Not a single man has been able to enter since the monastery was established six hundred years ago, not even the Emperor!”

Da Fei was shocked, “Ah? But the respected person said you were from the church?”

The Dwarf Lady sighed, “When I was young, I was rescued from a shipwreck by a kind person, who then sent me to grow up in the monastery, and after that, I was assigned to work here. My duty is to deliver vegetables to the monastery, how could I possibly fulfill the respected person’s commission…” Her voice choked up as she spoke, “I, I am really too useless, without even the ability to repay the respected person…”

Hey hey hey, don’t cry, it’s not the old man’s fault, it’s just my curiosity!

For a moment, Da Fei hesitated, thinking that the old man was really unreliable. He’s such a high-ranking official and yet he asked a Dwarf Lady for help with something he couldn’t handle? — Wait a minute! Delivering vegetables?

Da Fei’s heart skipped a beat; perhaps the old man meant to sneak in while delivering vegetables? Damn! This is the only way, isn’t it? When the high-end route is completely blocked, it’s time for some underhanded tactics!

Da Fei asked hurriedly, “How do you deliver the vegetables?”

The Dwarf Lady said, “A horse cart every day, there are over a thousand people in the monastery.”

A horse cart, huh! I see!

Da Fei chuckled, “I have a way now, you can sneak me in with the vegetables.”

The Dwarf Lady was astonished, “But they do check thoroughly, especially that Yumina who guards the gate, she checks even under the cart every time.”

Da Fei was startled, “Yumina, are you talking about that old gatekeeper lady?”

The Dwarf Lady, shocked, quickly gestured with her hands, “She is the thirty-sixth Saintess, with immense mana, the whole Bright Alliance can hardly find such powerful people, and it’s even rumored that the respected person might not be her match!”

— Ah choo! Nanny Rong is actually a Saintess! The image of a saintess instantly crumbled in Da Fei’s heart!

Da Fei calmed his mind, “I have Master-level Reconnaissance Skill, and I can learn the disguise skill right away, that should work, right?”

The Dwarf Lady couldn’t help but be surprised, “Master-level? No wonder you were sent by the respected person.” Then she frowned, “But even with Master-level, in such a small cart—anyway, at that time I will argue with her to distract her attention, hoping to get through.”

Da Fei was overjoyed, “That sounds great!”

The Dwarf Lady continued, “Once you’ve successfully infiltrated, you must find a way to hide and not run around. I won’t be in the canteen for long, and you mustn’t wander around. However, during unloading, there will be nuns on shift to help, so we can only look for someone among the helping nuns. It’s not a one or two-day job; you must be prepared to hide for a few days, anyhow I will come every day.”

Da Fei nodded, “Understood.” With my Master-level Reconnaissance Skill, how many in the world can reach my level?

The Dwarf Lady nodded, “I grew up doing chores in the monastery’s canteen, I basically know all the nuns. What’s the name of the person you’re looking for?”

They all know each other, which is good, Da Fei happily said, “She’s called Selvia!”

The Dwarf Lady paused, then shook her head, “There’s no such person!”

No way? Could the diary actually be bullshitting? Da Fei exclaimed in shock, “How could she not exist?”

The Dwarf Lady shook her head, “A nun wouldn’t use that name. Perhaps she used to be called that, but upon entering the monastery, she would have to change it, to something like ‘na,’ ‘sha,’ ‘er,’ and other names commonly used by angels.”

Damn it, this is like being a thief, and now even the name is unknown. How difficult is this going to be? It’s practically going to drive me nuts.

Let’s not talk about whether the diary is reliable. Even if she’s a hero, how capable can a 15-year-old girl be? Is it worth all this trouble? Well, it’s worth it since I’m idle anyway. What else can I do but put myself through this trouble?

Da Fei then took out a flute, “This might be the only token, she might recognize it!”

The Dwarf Lady nodded, “I see, alright, leave it to me, I’ll make sure she sees it. So, get ready, I’m going to deliver the vegetables right away.”

“No problem!” Da Fei took out the Reconnaissance Skill Book and a flash of golden light.

— System Prompt: You have spent 1 Skill Point to learn the Reconnaissance Skill sub-skill “Disguise.”
