Beast Taming Patrol

"Cooperation... Oath?" Lin Su blinked, "What are the specifics? Can you disclose them in advance?"
Experience new tales on empire

"Yes," Qin Nan smiled, "Every cadet in the preparatory camp, after passing through the Cooperation Preparatory Camp, the first step of the Cooperation Oath has already begun: identity qualification review."

"From your childhood to adulthood, every situation you've been through, every single thing you've done, will be included in the review scope, and judged by the central intelligence to determine your level of trustworthiness and therefore your qualification to undertake the Cooperation Oath."

Hearing this, Lin Su rapidly recalled everything he had experienced from childhood to adulthood.

Gradually, his expression became a bit tense.

Taking advantage of the amusement park owner... does that count?

Seeing Lin Su's somewhat tense expression, Qin Nan smiled, "Don't worry, as long as you haven't done anything to betray the Alliance, you'll generally pass this phase."

Having done nothing to betray the Alliance...

Lin Su let out a slight sigh of relief.

Taking advantage of the amusement park probably doesn't count as betraying the Alliance.

At most, it's betraying those few amusement park owners.

Then it's fine.

"After passing the review, you will receive an invitation to the oath ceremony where you will proceed to a designated place to swear that you will never betray the Alliance, nor will you do anything to harm the Alliance."

Seeing the look in Lin Su's eyes, Qin Nan spread his hands, "That's it, it's over."

"It's over?!" Lin Su blinked, "Just swearing and that's enough? Isn't that a bit too trivial?"

"Oh?" Qin Nan's lips curled with a hint of a strange smile, "You'll know whether it's trivial when the time comes."

Lin Su: "..."

This scene seemed familiar.

Before I joined the Cooperation Preparatory Camp, Sister Nan had used the same tone.

"Sister Nan, what's really going on with this oath?"

"That I can't say," Qin Nan smiled, "The process of the Cooperation Oath and the death rate of the Preparatory Camp are alike; absolutely no details can be revealed beforehand. After you've participated, you'll naturally understand."

"Oh right, remember to sign a confidentiality agreement later; the stuff about the Preparatory Camp's death rate can't be shared with anyone who hasn't passed the Cooperation Preparatory Camp. Everyone else had signed the agreement before they left, but since you left with me on the transport aircraft, I almost forgot."

"I understand," Lin Su nodded.

Since Sister Nan can't reveal the details...

I'll just wait and see what it's really about.

After all, I've never harbored thoughts of harming the Alliance, nor have I ever betrayed it.

So, this shouldn't be too difficult for me.

"Dinglingling~"

A slightly urgent ringing broke the silence.

"Hello? Uncle Qin," Qin Nan casually answered the communication device, "Lin Su? Yes, he's sitting right opposite me... What?!"

As the narrative continued from the other end, Qin Nan's expression gradually became more peculiar, and she looked at Lin Su with a half-smile, "Okay, got it, I'll tell him."

Communication ended.

Lin Su coughed lightly, "What did Commander Qin say?"

When Qin Nan mentioned "Uncle Qin," he had a bad premonition.

If nothing was amiss, it should be about the Ice Palm and Bone Tempering Liquid.

"Never mind what he said," Qin Nan huffed, "I haven't seen you in a month, and you're still making a fuss? We're about to leave, and you're still stirring up trouble."

She suddenly grinned evilly, "How about... we go back to the second combat sequence right now? I'm suddenly very interested in what you've brought out."

"Let's not," Lin Su grimaced.

"Then don't you think it's about time you show me what you've got?!"

Helpless, Lin Su signaled to his assistant and quickly produced a freshly copied formula, "Here you go."

Luckily, he had been cautious enough to make several copies in advance.

Qin Nan snatched it eagerly, her eyes sparkling as she examined it.

"Right, Sister Nan, what did Commander Qin tell you to tell me?" Lin Su couldn't help but ask, driven by curiosity.

"Nothing much," Qin Nan casually waved her hand, her gaze fixed on the formula, her eyes growing brighter, "He said if the formula really works, he, on behalf of the Alliance's military management, owes you a favor."

"Alright," Lin Su scratched his head.

Having the military owe him a favor wasn't something he was particularly concerned about.

As long as they didn't delve too deeply into the origin of the formula, that was fine.

After all, his intention was to help the combat personnel on the borderlines increase their chances of survival.

"This is great stuff!" Qin Nan finally finished examining the contents of the formula, her face alight with intense delight, "Normally, the vast majority of supernatural resources can't directly affect human Beast Tamers, but this formula changes the properties of various supernatural resources, influencing each other to make them more mild so that humans can gradually absorb them."

After all, she was a first-level researcher; even if she couldn't completely understand everything in the formula, she could still discern some insights.

"I'll try this back at the lab!" Qin Nan laughed," The process is a bit cumbersome, but it's not hard to implement."

She was already eager to get started.

Lin Su propped his head, smiling.

Speaking of which, he still had an Ice-related teaching skill research project approved but not yet started...

No need to delay anymore, he would submit the Ice Palm once he returned.

As for what new project to apply for after submitting the Ice Palm,

he already had some ideas.
