“Jarvis, what did the Captain tell you?”

At the entrance of the tent where Captain Murphy was located.

Sergeant Mars was standing here, waiting for Noland Lee.

He turned his head at the sound of the curtain, seeing Noland who had just walked out.

Noland had just ended his conversation with Captain Murphy, and at this moment, all he wanted to do was return to the camp to rest, have a hot bath, give himself a scrub, and catch some sleep.

Unfortunately, the slightly plump Miss Murphy clearly didn’t want to let him relax.

Noland and Mars walked towards the staircase together, speaking at the same time:

“Captain Mars, Captain Murphy told me that the first Strengthening Injection is most likely to produce side effects and I need to rest for several days before being able to go outdoors. She asked me to go to the Medical Department of the Legion Fortress as soon as possible to take a shot, so as not to affect upcoming

Corps Tasks.”

Sergeant Mars nodded in agreement:

“Yes, she’s correct. The occurrence rate of side-effects is as high as 95%, basically, everyone will experience symptoms of light nausea, dizziness, and fatigue. Some severe cases could even be afraid of light, water, wind, or have a high fever. Generally speaking, after the first injection, individuals need to allow approximately 10 days before they can participate in outdoor activities, otherwise, they are likely to contract odd immune diseases.”

Noland frowned slightly:

“The probability of experiencing side-effects is so high, sounds quite risky.

Have there been any instances of death after taking the shot?”

“You can rest assured about that.” Sergeant Mars reassured with a smile:

“When the Division Intelligence Unit Three was developing the Strengthening Potion, they arranged a special protection mechanism…uh…let me think, how were those professional terms phrased…”

Sergeant Mars contemplated:

“I once heard a nurse from the Medical Department explain that what they call side effects are actually immune responses that occur during the first human body modification process brought about by the Strengthening Potion. When the intensity of the immune response reaches the critical value that the human body can bear, the active ingredients in the Strengthening Potion will decompose due to the high body temperature. The active ingredients of the potion will then become ineffective, and the human body’s immune system will gradually return to normal.”

Sergeant Mars snapped his fingers:

“So, you can understand it this way, the longer the duration of the side effects after the injection, the longer the effective ingredient works, the more impressive the initial human body modification effect will be.

“In fact, it really is like this. The Division Intelligence Unit Three did a statistic, in which all of the military officers that had been promoted to the Third Order

“Imperial Fist” had experienced side effects for more than 10 days after the first Strengthening Injection, without exception. What’s more, some even reached 15 days, which is the theoretical limit that a human body can endure. Therefore, the Division Intelligence Unit Three uses the duration of the side effects as an important indicator for observing the development potential of the military officers.”

Noland asked:

“So how long did you experience side-effects for?”

Sergeant Mars gave a forced smile:

“Heh, I almost made it to the 10th day. My body is not very cooperative, I unexpectedly developed a fever on the afternoon of the 9th day. By that evening, my body had returned to normal, and all of the side effects disappeared. Now thinking about it, it’s really a bit unbearable, a hot fever that came and went quickly, directly destroyed all the effective ingredients in my body…”

As Noland and Sergeant Mars were chatting, they traversed the staircase, second underground layer and the first floor to finally return to ground level and get into the steam locomotive.

The steam locomotive swiftly moved through the uneven ground and quickly arrived at the Alvin Army’s station.

Sergeant Mars didn’t get off.

He had a chat with the soldier on guard.

The soldier ran to Sergeant Alvin Stafford’s tent, and when he returned, he had a remote control in his hand.

Sergeant Mars took the remote control, turned the steering wheel, bypassed the station and drove directly towards the Legion Fortress on the horizon.

He aimed at Noland and pushed the button on the remote control, removing the Electric Shock Collar from his neck.

Noland watched the Electric Shock Collar fall from his neck, breathing out slowly.

He had tried deconstructing the Electric Shock Collar before, but the system indicated that 300 Energy Points were required to complete the deconstruction.

Noland couldn’t muster up that many Energy Points in such a short span of time.

Besides, even if he deconstructed the result, he might not be able to remove the Electric Shock Collar.

Only by accommodating the Imperial Army, he could have the opportunity to unlock the collar in the shortest possible time.

Now, his efforts have at last sprouted fruits.

From the time he arrived at the present, less than 24 hours had elapsed when he got rid of the Electric Shock Collar.

The freedom he traded with patience, makes him cherish it greatly.

This is a crucial part of his plan to escape from the harsh lands.

“Congratulations, Jarvis. From now on, you will be able to operate as a soldier. Normally, we would have to wait until No. 1079’s Spiritual Pivot is unlocked, and Lieutenant Sterling Parker gets the Life Essence inside, and then distributes the Spoils of War to Sergeant Alvin Stafford before we could return to the Fortress with the main force.

“However, since Captain Murphy has instructed, I will take you along first.

Otherwise, we would be delayed for three to four days.” Noland touched the still-warm Electric Shock Collar, nodding:

“Alright, Chief Officer.”

Sergeant Mars spoke while driving:

“Captain Murphy has spoken to me about this, your treatment will be arranged according to a Private Second Class soldier of the Corps. Once every half a month, you can stay in ‘Refreshing Time’ for free, each time for a maximum of three days. There, you have unlimited hot water, beverages, delicious food, as well as cigarettes and alcohol. Of course, there are also essential pleasure services. After you go through the side-effects of the Strengthening Injection, you will be able to experience the inn..”
