Rayen was eager to know the knowledge of the God of War.

However, the other party said, “Metaphor, my friend…” Davis smiled and threw a cigarette butt to Rayen. “I’m using a metaphor to describe our country’s way of war. The God of War was created by me.”

At this time, Eli, who was not far away, looked at the two of them and frowned. “Friend, please don’t make such a joke. The ancient god is the only God. This is too disrespectful.” As he said that, Eli ignored his sore arm and took out the pendant from his neck, holding it in his hand, he closed his eyes and muttered to himself, “The only God, please forgive my friend…”

Humans could not remember exactly when the ancient god religion first became popular on the entire planet.

However, official records of several major countries said that the ancient god religion had appeared in this world as early as 3,000 years ago, and its origin was in Colossus, which was very far away from the Sapphire Blue Empire.

This religion had won countless believers over thousands of years with its philanthropic and benevolent ideology. Moreover, it had no barriers to entering the religion. As long as you were willing to believe that the ancient god was the only God in the world, then you would be blessed by it. You would be able to receive shelter and food in the temples where it was worshipped.

Of course, if you have an eye-shaped pendant or other similar ornament representing the ancient gods, and can recite the teachings of the Book of God at length, then you were a staunch believer!

This ability might even win the right to vote in some countries.

Eli, who was praying with his eyes closed, was one of the staunch believers, but Rayen looked at him as a country bumpkin and guessed that he was probably a good boy who grew up listening to his grandmother’s stories in the Book of God.

However, it can be seen that Eli’s belief in the ancient gods came from the worship of the soul, other than that, he was quite devout.

However, contrary to Eli, the ancient gods were used as a ruling tool by most of the world’s monarchs, as long as they said a few hypocritical words of praise to the ancient gods on live television, they would win the favor of the people.

After all, they did not want their imperial power to be opposed by a large number of believers.

Those politicians also carried the Book of God with them for their official career and votes. This was to force themselves to remember a few words before the speech.

As long as they said it at the right time, their votes would have a good result.

Under the general trend, the ancient gods became the number one religion in the world. Their status was unshakable.

The other religions were also known as Heresy. They did not have many believers, and they did not receive the government’s attention at all.

Compared to the ancient gods that he had never seen with his own eyes, Rayen was more willing to believe in the God of War that existed in the dream. After all, the other party had indeed given him a special ability.

However, every time he thought of those scarlet eyes, his back could not help but feel cold.

“Never mind, I’ll definitely use this ability to climb higher and finally think of a way to transfer back to the capital to live a leisurely life.”This was Rayen’s true thoughts and future goal.

After all, the income of a high-ranking military official was not something that the profits of a weapons merchant could compare to.

As long as he climbed to the level of a general, he would have the possibility to live in the empire’s weapons laboratory and the best romantic scene.

He would always remember the words his corporal father often said to him, “In the Sapphire Blue Empire, only a high enough position can ensure your own safety.”

After the veteran left forever, Rayen even worshipped these words as the truth!

As that was the truth, those who were uneducated and unskilled were only fit to live under someone else’s roof, eat bad food or go to the battlefield to die as cannon fodder.

However, people of noble birth or outstanding strength could enjoy everything, and were relatively safer.

This truth sounded very unpleasant, but there was no doubt that this was an iron-like law of nature, and it could not be reversed.

Hence, no matter what, Rayen had to climb up the social ladder!

With his special ability, Rayen believed that what belonged to him would definitely appear!

Thinking of this, he turned around and leaned against the pillow, ready to daydream.

“Davis, you really know a lot about the situation in our country. Is there anyone in your family who joined the army or entered politics?” A short recruit named Powell asked.

After putting out the cigarette butt, Davis patted his stomach and laughed. “Young man, this knowledge is a piece of cake. I learnt it when I was a temporary civil servant in the City of Friends!”

At this time, Rayen, who was beside him, opened his eyes and said, “Didn’t you say that you were a weapons merchant? How did you become a temporary civil servant again?” He found this fatty a little strange.

“Young man, how old am I? I’ve done more things than you’ve eaten. If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask me!” Davis picked his nose, looking like someone who had experienced it before.

The two recruits at the side jeered.

“You’re at most thirty!”

“Yeah, how many things could you do?”

Davis leaned on the bed, picked his nose and said, “Hmph! That’s because I take good care of myself. I’m already thirty-seven this year!” When he said this, he clearly looked a little guilty, and everyone laughed out loud.

The class that was not too different quickly made the recruits get together. In order to show their friendliness, Powell, who was originally a street vendor, opened his suitcase and took out the pornographic magazines inside to share.

The first day of life in the military camp ended when everyone discussed which porn star girl had better breasts and better butt.

The facts proved that the transition period for new recruits that Battalion Commander Major Li Qiang said was a complete lie.

From the next day, thirty new recruits began to put in formal and heavy work. They began to repair and maintain all kinds of guns in the factory.

In addition to the daily work in the workshop, Steven was also afraid that everyone would not sleep well at night, so he thoughtfully arranged all kinds of military training for everyone.

What was more hateful was that the amount of training he arranged was just right. He absolutely guaranteed that when you returned to the barracks, you would be able to fall asleep as soon as you laid on the pillow. There was simply no time to think about the closed-style management of the corps or to express opinions.

As the squad leader, Steven had also taught them many things in the corps these days, and had also displayed his excellent military literacy.

After everyone saw this guy’s marksmanship and familiarity with various weapon modifications, they were sincerely impressed.

In their hearts, they even yearned to become an outstanding soldier like him.

As the days passed, he also continuously increased the upper limit of everyone’s workload.

However, everyone was not stupid. As they had more and more work to do, they also felt that there might be another war. Otherwise, they would not need to produce so much ammunition.

Compared to the others who sighed at the boring work, Rayen, who loved weapons, so he was not bored.

During this period of time, he had come into contact with some of the armored vehicles in the corps and used his unique power to quickly grasp the various parameters and production methods of light armored vehicles. With the help of this ability, he had a new understanding of armor and even began to imagine using armor to do something else.

He had been like this since he was young. Whenever he came across weapons or related things, people would become exceptionally smart.

However, even the smartest people had to face them, and the trouble came from those who joined the army earlier than them.

The veterans of the foundry camp were very interested in this group of recruits.

They often sneaked into the workshop of the recruit squad to patrol.

They pointed at these clumsy guys, and even swore at them.

If they were unlucky, they would be punished by the corporal.

A stuffy guy like Eli was often teased by the veterans. It was unknown whether the ancient god that Eli worshipped from the bottom of his heart had forgotten about his existence as a believer.

Today, everyone was still working together with the machinery and equipment. They were repairing a batch of automatic rifles in the factory.

At eight o’clock in the morning, four or five veterans came in as usual to give everyone guidance.

Almost all the recruits had to put up with their difficulties with smiling faces. This was a major feature of the army.

“Hey! Little Pea! I heard that you used to be a street vendor. You should know how to wipe your boots, right?” The person who spoke was a sergeant named Nick. After saying that, he threw a pair of smelly military boots to the other party.

It was not an exaggeration to say that this guy was the existence that the recruits hated the most. Not only did he like to bully others, but he also liked to show off his skills in front of all the recruits.

However, he had to admit that this guy’s expertise in weapons was indeed not bad. He could reassemble a broken automatic rifle in three minutes and guaranteed that it could be used normally.

“Sergeant, I’m in the business of selling, I don’t know how to…”Powell, who was thin and small, lowered his head, not daring to look at the other party.

The recruits led by Nick immediately went up to him and roared.

“Kid, how did you learn the recruit rules?”

“Didn’t you see our military rank?”

“Don’t you know to call us officers?”

In the face of these guys’ roars, Powell, who was already weak, was already drenched in sweat. He did not know how to respond for a moment.

At this time, Davis, the oldest in the class, stepped forward and took out a cigarette from his pocket. He smiled and said, “Officers, have a cigarette. He has never seen so many brave warriors. He is afraid.”

Nick took the cigarette and teased, “Fatty, why aren’t you losing weight?”

“Hehe, humans are always lazy.” Davis was not angry. He still smiled and lit the cigarette for them.

The other recruits were very angry, but they did not dare to say anything. It was the default habit of everyone in the class to let Davis handle this kind of thing.

“You! Why aren’t you saluting?” At this time, a veteran pointed at Rayen, who was looking at the machine gun parts.

At this time, Rayen’s attention was all on the gun in his hand. He felt that there was a further optimization plan for this weapon, so he did not notice the arrival of the veterans at all.

It was not until a comrade nudged him with his elbow that he reacted and quickly stood up to salute.

Nick pushed Davis away and walked to Rayen in a few steps. “Kid! I heard that you used to be a weapons dealer? Why? Are you interested in the weapons of our corps?”

After revealing a smiling face, Rayen replied loudly, “Report! I am thinking about the optimization plan for the machine gun. Please forgive me, sir.” After all, he was a businessman who had worked for a few years. Hence, Rayen would always be smiling..
