When the others around saw that Wan Chang'an had actually given the boot to Zhang Yuan, their expressions all changed, and they exclaimed in surprise, "Commander, that's..."

"This is my decision, don't say anything!"

Wan Chang'an interrupted the others and said, "Everyone, go out. I want to have a private chat with this child."

Seeing Wan Chang'an say this, the others stopped talking, but cast envious glances at Zhang Yuan before leaving the headquarters together.

Zhang Yuan took the boots and checked the information.

【Wind Chaser Boots (Legendary): Strength +1000, Agility +1000, Spirit +1000, Constitution +1000, Wind damage reduction 50%, wearer gains the skill "Riding the Wind", usable at level 15.】

【Riding the Wind: After using this skill, movement speed increases by 100%.】

"Legendary equipment?"

When Zhang Yuan saw the attributes of the Wind Riding Boots, his pupils contracted slightly, and he looked at Wan Chang'an with a shocked expression, "This is too valuable!"

Wan Chang'an waved his hand and smiled, "This is equipment I acquired in my early days, and it has been with me for over twenty years. I no longer need it. Giving it to you will allow it to shine again. This is my heartfelt gift, so please don't refuse."

"That's...ok."

Zhang Yuan no longer stood on ceremony and immediately put on the Wind-Riding Boots. He immediately felt much lighter, as if he could jump to the sky with a single leap.

"It's pretty good, it suits you quite well."

Wan Chang'an looked at Zhang Yuan with a smile and continued, "Zhang Yuan, do you know why I wanted to see you in person?"

Zhang Yuan: "Isn't it because of Captain Xia's report?"

Wan Chang'an: "That's only one aspect, but it's not the main reason why I decided to meet you in person."

"There are other reasons?" Zhang Yuan was taken aback.

Wan Chang'an said in a deep voice, "Your maternal grandmother was my teacher, and your parents were once my subordinates."

Zhang Yuan's pupils contracted slightly: "Is that so? I've never heard my grandmother mention it."

Wan Chang'an: "After she retired, she stopped talking about military affairs. Since your parents went missing, she hasn't even wanted to see me. Not just you, but most people in the military don't know that I once had a teacher."

"However, that's not what I want to tell you today. What I want to talk about is your parents."

"My parents..."

Zhang Yuan's heart stirred. Although he had never met the host's parents since he transmigrated, he had developed strong feelings for these strangers because of the host's influence.

In his past life, he was an orphan. In this life, he longs for and wants to have loving parents.

Wan Chang'an nodded slightly and said, "Your parents were once elites of the Hidden Dragon Squad. They had an accident during a raid on an Abyss dungeon and disappeared. We sent troops to search around that dungeon for a whole month, but we couldn't find any trace of them."

Zhang Yuan snapped out of his daze. "I know that."

Wan Chang'an added, "However, recently we've had some news about your parents."

"You found them?" Zhang Yuan asked with delight.

Wan Chang'an nodded, "Yes, someone discovered their traces on the front lines of the Abyss, but... they seem to have become Abyss bosses."

"My parents have turned into Abyss bosses?"

Zhang Yuan's surprise immediately turned into shock.

Wan Chang'an: "I haven't told the teacher about this yet, but I feel it's necessary to tell you... The Abyss is becoming increasingly turbulent, and the fact that your parents have become the boss of the Abyss is extraordinary and may even involve you."

Zhang Yuan fell into deep thought, then said to Wan Chang'an, "Commander, can I ask you for a favor? If you have any news about my parents, please tell me immediately."

Wan Chang'an: "Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking. But I hope you won't tell our teacher about this. I'm afraid that if she hears this news, she'll rush straight to the front lines of the Abyss. It's not peaceful there right now, and our teacher is no longer fit for combat."

"Mm." Zhang Yuan nodded.

"Alright, now that we've finished discussing personal matters, let's get down to business."

Wan Chang'an then took out a specially made dark green military uniform from his storage space and handed it to Zhang Yuan. "I originally wanted to personally test whether you were qualified to join the Qianlong Detachment, but it seems that there is no need to test you now."
