Chapter 733: Chapter 624: Young Master of the Moon Clan (Part 2)

Every year the legion opens up for selection, and as long as you’re in the Purification Zone, you qualify to participate, screening for potential newcomers. However, the conditions are extremely harsh; only the most gifted Beastmen can be chosen.

This is also the ultimate goal for many young Beastmen—to join the Divine Protection Army and become part of the honor!

Zhai Chen and the other Beastmen around them felt particularly excited when they saw the legion, imagining that they too might one day enter.

"The best warriors are recruited into the legion, getting a better life, with family security guaranteed... I wonder if we’ll have that chance in this lifetime."

"It’s unlikely for us, but surely Captain will make it!"

Qin Han listened to his team and looked towards the legion with an obsession-like fervor, his stern face full of determination.

He suddenly turned his head to Shen Tang, "This year, I will participate in the legion selection and become an honorable warrior."

Shen Tang was momentarily stunned but shook her head, "Don’t participate."

It was Qin Han’s turn to be taken aback, "... Why?"

He looked confusedly at the female before him; females naturally pursue strong and outstanding males, and those who can enter the legion are the strongest and best representatives.

There’s no female who doesn’t want a Beast Husband serving in the legion.

Shen Tang couldn’t articulate the real reason, so she casually glossed over it, "The legion’s missions are dangerous, right? I don’t want Captain Qin to take risks."

What she really wanted to say was:

I don’t want to become your enemy.

Qin Han’s throat turned dry, not knowing how to respond. This was the first time he had encountered a female who cared about a male’s safety. Anyone else would have fervently supported their Beast Husband joining the legion, aiming to win more glory and value for themselves.

She truly was different from the rest.

He admitted that he had fallen for her.

Shen Tang didn’t notice the deep gaze of the man; her attention was also on the legion, looking just like those females admiring the legion.

She noticed that not only did the legion’s uniform have the Hand of Creation’s totem, but it also bore the crescent moon emblem from the city gates.

She pretended to ask casually, "Is the Purification Zone also under the control of the Divine Hall?"

Qin Han snapped back to reality and replied first, "No, the rulers here are the Yue Family; the actual control of the Nineteen Cities is in the hands of the Yue Family, with the Divine Hall only assisting in management."

Shen Tang became more curious, "The Yue Family? Can you tell me about the Yue Family and the rulers of the other areas?"

She had initially thought the Alien Star was entirely controlled by the Divine Hall, but apparently, it wasn’t.

This planet had other senior rulers.

She remembered the Snake Clan man who called himself Uncle Xue Yinzhou, who seemed to be the Great Elder of the Ghost Snake Clan.

Could the Ghost Snake Clan be one of them too?

She seemed to be getting closer to the truth.

Zhai Chen flicked her forehead and took over, "Hey, you really have serious amnesia! Let me tell you!"

"The Purification Zone is controlled by the Six Great Families. The Divine Hall has close relations with the Six Great Families; they cooperate to maintain the planet’s operation, so you can think of them as a group!"

"But from our perspective, they’re a bit different. The Six Great Families have been rulers from ancient times until now, whereas the Divine Hall rose later—it’s more akin to a faith-based organization than a military or political force, fundamentally different from those ruling families."

"Originally, because of the Wasteland Zone’s deterioration, the upper echelons intended to abandon the lower-class citizens. It was the intervention of the great Divine Hall that gave us a way out."

"But there are too many people at the bottom, and resources are simply insufficient, so this promotion rule eventually formed... Though the competition is cruel, it also gives us hope to strive!"

"Therefore, for many low-class Beastmen, the Six Great Families are rulers, but the Divine Hall is spiritual faith. They’ve reached a delicate balance, not interfering but often cooperating... Of course, this isn’t something we should worry about; surviving is good enough for us! Haha!"

Shen Tang pondered, "So that’s it, the emblem at the city gate is of the Yue Family, but what about the other five great families?"

Bai Lei continued explaining, "The Nineteen Cities are under the jurisdiction of the Yue Family. Further north is the Hunting Leopard Clan, followed by the Ancient Clan, to the east is the Ghost Snake Clan, then there’s Sky City, Water Clan, and the Parasite Clan."

Upon hearing the words "Ghost Snake Clan," Shen Tang’s spirit was lifted, her breath quickened, but she forced herself to suppress her body’s faint quivering, hiding her excitement.

Could Yin Zhou be in the Ghost Snake Clan?

That’s his hometown, right!

Shen Tang kept her tone calm, "I seem to recall a bit... The Ghost Snake Clan, I think I have relatives over there... How can I go there?"

Yuna curled her lips, sarcastically, "Such high aspirations! We just ascended from the Wasteland Zone, and you’re already thinking of going to the Ghost Snake Clan? Dream on!"
