"So that's it..."
Xue Yun nodded with sudden realization, and Xue Yun burst into laughter for a moment.
It's been a long time.
This old tree dragon, like Xiao Wanzi, was summoned by the power of the Fire Dragon God's bloodline, so he stayed away from the land and came to this unfamiliar sea area.
"Oh, right......"
Suddenly I remembered something.
Xue Yun asked curiously: "How are the indigenous people in the rainforest doing now? Have Susan and Lucas from the Bassa Emirate had any contact with you?"
The old days.
The Dawn Walker team was once in the Emirate of Barcelona and had an indissoluble bond with the locals there.
Recalling what he had gone through, Xue Yun couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
The last time I saw Susan was at the World Summit of the "Ocean Federal Republic" more than ten years ago.
So many years have passed.
The Queen and the people under her command did not know what the situation was.
I couldn't help but be stunned.
An inexplicable sadness flashed through Treebeard Zulong's eyes, and he couldn't help but ask: "You really don't know?" 』
Immediately, I felt something was wrong in the other party's tone.
Xue Yun frowned and asked in a deep voice: "What do you know?"
Let out a long sigh.
Treebeard Zulong smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "It seems that you really know nothing about what happened in the past few years. It's no wonder. After all, the Emirate of Barcelona is a small border country, and no matter how big the movement is, it will be very dangerous." It is difficult to attract the attention of other forces. 』
Startled suddenly.
Xue Yun suddenly had a bad feeling.
Over the years, he has been living in an unstable place. He was first trapped in the "Beginning and Ending Realm" on the northern border. By the time he was born, ten years had passed in the outside world.
Afterwards, they fought for the safety of the Great Xia Empire and had no energy to pay attention to the trends of the Bassa Emirate.
"tell me......"
His eyes darkened.
Xue Yun gritted his teeth secretly and asked: "What happened to Susan and the others?"
...
Daxia Empire, Dragon Capital.
It was late at night.
There was silence in Longdu City. Except for the occasional scattered vehicles, almost everyone had already fallen asleep.
After a catastrophic battle to protect the country.
The Great Xia Empire was reborn from the ashes. Under the leadership of Xue Yun, the twelve fortress cities put aside their past grievances, worked together, and began to drastically improve people's livelihood and economy.
Everything became prosperous, as if it had returned to the grand occasion when the country was first established in the early days of the catastrophe.
But no one will know.
Under this seemingly peaceful atmosphere, there are still huge hidden dangers hiding in corners, waiting for opportunities.
Longdu War Readiness Department.
The dark hall was also deserted. The guards on duty were patrolling the hall on the first floor diligently. Everything seemed very peaceful and peaceful.
On the third floor underground, in a small office.
Xia Lengling, an old lady wearing black professional attire, was sitting alone on the sofa next to her desk, looking at the holographic screen in front of her with cold eyes.
"So, that's what happened..."
In the holographic communication image.
Heath, who was wearing military uniform, had a perverse expression. He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled coldly: "Master has made up his mind to make this world completely chaotic."
Through communication images.
Xia Lengling frowned. He could clearly hear the killing shouts and gunfire coming from the other side.
"As for you, Heiyan, my little baby..."
There was a pause.
In the camera, Heath picked up the goblet, took a sip of the fragrant wine, shook his head and pretended to sigh: "At this time, it's time to make some contribution to the master's plan."
Put down the glass.
Heath raised his brows and said in a strange tone: "Or are you already used to the life in Longdu and want to betray your master and make your own choice?"
Close your eyes silently.
Xia Lengling adjusted her mood and did not get angry easily because of the other party's words.
"Did the master personally issue the action instructions you just mentioned?"
He was stunned for a while.
The two stared at each other across the screen for a long time, so that the atmosphere around them became awkward and weird.
"Is there any difference?"
Shrugging his shoulders.
Heath spread his hands and said bluntly: "Your identity was originally a nail used to connect the inside and the outside. Now that things have developed to this point, you must cooperate with me unconditionally."
"The Great Xia Empire must once again be in chaos. Not enough people have died. At the very least, they are far from meeting the standards required by the master..."
Cross your fingers together.
Heath narrowed his one eye and continued in a deep voice: "At least on this point, Master and I have absolutely the same position."
The cold words were like a talisman to kill someone. Xia Lengling was unable to refute for a while and did not dare to refute at all.
"Understood."
He nodded calmly.
Xia Lengling remained calm as usual and said expressionlessly: "I will do what you say."
"very good."
He flexed his hands arrogantly.
Heath finally reminded: "Remember, don't let me wait too long to destroy what you should destroy. This is your destiny and responsibility, you have no choice."
Say it.
The communication channel suddenly stopped, and the only sound left in the office was the soft breathing of a woman.
Get up silently.
Xia Lengling lowered his head and came to the desk like a zombie.
Her slender palms were supported on the table, and the woman's shoulders could not stop trembling.
"I'm sorry, this day finally came, I had to do this..."
same moment.
Located on the west coast of the other side of the ocean - "York City".
Inside the dark green military tent.
Heath, who had just hung up the communication, filled himself up with a large glass of wine again and drank it down in one gulp.
"The feeling of manipulating others is just like the fine wine in this glass. It's really addictive!"
He sighed inexplicably.
Heath took off his military cap and lay back on the comfortable chair, with some tears hanging from the corners of his eyes.
"No wonder the master is so keen on this boring game. Hei Yan, you should be able to understand that having no choice is the most painful thing..."
Outside the military tent.
The roaring sound of artillery fire in the distance never stopped for a moment.
next moment--
An officer suddenly rushed into the military tent, saluted Heath with a standard military salute, and said tremblingly: "Report to the general, the battle on the front line is a bit tense. Our troops are blocked 800 meters outside the city of York. Outside of the fortifications, we have been unable to form an effective breakthrough!”
He hesitated for a long time.
The officer mustered up his courage and said: "The officers at all levels suggested that it is best to stop the attack and let the brothers rest for a while and recover their strength before making plans."
"waste!"
A snap~~
He threw his hand and smashed the wine glass into pieces.
Heath suddenly stood up and cursed loudly: "More than five hours have passed, and you still haven't been able to invade the city. Instead, you asked for a truce and rest. Do you want to move your head?!"
Still standing straight.
The officer in front of the military tent couldn't help but feel frightened. He gritted his teeth secretly for a while and reported loudly: "Your Excellency, General, the city defense force of the 'Ocean Federal Republic' is not weak. In addition, the old beggar who suddenly appeared to control the dragon turtle , our casualties are too great..."
He pondered for a moment.
The officer emphasized: "If this continues, the morale of our brothers will be exhausted. How can we continue to fight this battle!?"
