"Speaking of which, we've been talking for so long, where's Rometheus?"
Robert also discovered that his "rival" Rometheus had not attended the meeting, and immediately went to Richard to complain.
Why are you bothering with other people? Just mind your own business.
Richard was already annoyed, and seeing Robert, that idiot, only made him more irritable. Neither of them could give him any peace of mind, and besides, he was barely able to protect himself in the current situation.
"But...but he doesn't care at all."
"Anyway, it doesn't matter whether he's here or not. Do you really expect him to donate money to my space base? If you're really that concerned, I wouldn't object to giving us some money."
Seeing this, Robert obediently shut his mouth. He was joking; he hadn't caused the explosion, so he wasn't going to waste his money.
Upon seeing this, Demoulins immediately ended the meeting and then began operating something on the computer screen.
"After the rockets explode... launch them all in 10 minutes."
. . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . .
When Reis returned to Longbow Valley in a great hurry with a few people, what he saw almost made him kneel down and weep bitterly.
"I just finished restoring the Diamond Queen Hotel!!!!"
The sight of ruins before him instantly snapped Reiss out of his reverie. The Dragon had used so many magnetic bombs to destroy more than half of the Diamond Queen Hotel, but now, after being bombarded by two Dongfeng missiles, all that remained was a pile of rubble.
Even nearby Blue Harbor Wharf and Amiya Town have been affected to varying degrees, but the current situation makes Reese realize that he may have messed with the wrong person.
Reese: Can I apologize to De Moulin or something? I don't think they were the ones who bombed it before. The previous explosion seems so different from this one.
At that moment, Youssef called:
"Hey! Rhys, what exactly happened to your Longbow Valley? How could it be attacked by missiles?"
Reis also cried out to Youssef for a few words:
"Isn't this a misunderstanding? My Diamond Queen Hotel was bombed before, right? I thought it was Hafk and his gang of bastards who bombed it, so I led people to bomb her space base."
"What?! You blew up Demulan's territory?! And most likely you did it for no reason at all!"
Yusuf's heart nearly stopped beating when he heard this. Good heavens, this Reis is simply invincible! Even he, the supreme leader, probably wouldn't dare to do something like this.
"Yousef, you can't abandon me! I'm one of your men, and I have so many brothers to rely on!"
Reis was also a little panicked. He was really afraid that tomorrow Demulan would lead a large army to take over his Longbow Valley, and then his emperor-like life would be over.
"Ugh, you, what am I supposed to say to you!"
Yusuf was speechless, exasperated by Reiss's antics. This guy thought he was invincible on his own turf, huh? Even if he was incredibly skilled, could he withstand bullets? Could he withstand missiles? And Demoulan only launched two this time; if more were to come…
"I'll go see if there's any other way. You can clean up your place yourself now."
After Yusuf finished speaking, he hung up the phone. He wondered if there was any way to salvage the situation, and whether having Reis kowtow to Demulan twice would be enough to get him forgiven.
Seeing that Youssef had hung up the phone, Reis thought that Youssef was going to abandon him, a key general. But there was nothing he could do now. Many of his personal guards had become part of the ruins along with the Diamond Queen Hotel. If it really came down to a fight, he would have no one left to fight!
"Never mind, let's call Said first and see if we can get some people to come."
After trying to call for half a day without getting through, Said did not answer. After failing to get through on the third attempt, Reis was completely desperate.
"Is the heavens going to destroy me, Reis? Aren't I Asara's chosen one?"
Meanwhile, Said, who was still doing his exercises after Sofia took his phone: "Waaah, I'm so sorry, Reese, it's not that I didn't want to answer, it's just that this woman's aura is too overwhelming!"
Chapter 204 Save him?
Similarly, within the Secret Service.
"Okay, I understand."
After Shenlan hung up the phone, he turned around and saw pairs of eyes yearning for "knowledge".
"Deep Blue, what exactly happened?"
Unable to contain his curiosity, the gossipy dragon hurriedly asked, knowing that the explosion must have been extremely powerful, which reminded him of the spectacular scenes he had witnessed during military exercises.
You know, in Assara, it's mostly small-scale skirmishes. I've never seen Hafk get provoked into launching missiles. Huh? You might ask why the missiles couldn't have been launched by Assara? Just kidding, they don't have the money.
"I think it's because Reis first led his men to blow up the industrial area of the space base, and then Demulan immediately launched two Chinese Dongfeng missiles to bomb Reis's Longbow Valley."
"Wow, a Dongfeng missile!" ×3
Zhang Hao and Mai Xiaowen looked surprised. How could China have the Dongfeng missile Hafk? Then they both looked at Wei Long, who was already standing tall and ready to explain.
"I estimate that those two Dongfeng missiles were outdated in China and were sold to the Hafk Group at a high price."
This is where Uluru interjected to explain, and this earned him a death stare from Weilong.
Wei Long: Damn, I was just about to start showing off, what are you showing off for? Do you even have a mouth? (╬▔皿▔)╯
"The higher-ups said that there's a high probability that Hafk will attack Longbow Valley tomorrow. We need to change our mission objective. A high-ranking officer told me that we must do everything in our power to save Reis and prevent Hafk from taking Longbow Valley directly."
"Why?!"
Zhang Hao thought he had misheard. What was going on? Why were they protecting a ruthless oppressor of the people? Shouldn't they be assassinating him?
"Xiao Hao, you'll understand when you're older."
Shenlan wanted Zhang Hao to explain, but then realized that there wasn't enough time to explain, so she gave up, leaving Zhang Hao still puzzled.
"The assignments are the same as yesterday, but the target has changed. Red Wolf and Mai Xiaowen, take Xiao Hao with you. If anything goes wrong, retreat and rejoin us. Protecting Reis is the key to this mission."
"Old Deng! Then I........."
Zoya looked at Shenlan with anticipation. Now it was her turn to step up and give Xiaohao a strong sense of security for such an important task!
"You're still overseeing our operations from the Special Operations Department; we don't need you on the front lines this time."
Zoya: Old Deng, your words have deeply hurt me. Am I not even as good as Roy now?
"Hehehe, alright Zoya, there's nothing I can do. My strength is obvious to everyone. All I can say is, you still need to practice!"
Seeing this, Roy's reckless heart couldn't be contained any longer, and he started putting on an act in front of Zoya again.
"Old Luo, looks like your butt's itching for a bite again, huh? Okay, I'll grant your wish, Mighty Dragon Red Wolf!!!"
"Here!" ×2
"The usual routine, use the stick!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Long and Red Wolf also looked at Roy with wicked smiles, while Roy's anus tightened. Oh no, his mouth was really making his backside suffer.
"I...I want to come too."
At this moment, Terry, who was usually unnoticed, became the focus of everyone's attention. Uluru looked at his "best friend" in disbelief. How could even the usually honest Terry have become like this? So...
"Me too!" (●ˇ?ˇ●)
Terry/Uluru: Hehehe, we've been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Roy: You guys... you used to be brothers for life when you were drinking together! Now, I've completely seen through you, especially you, Uluru. We're all victims here!
"I'm sorry, Roy, I just hope that I and the driftwood can survive."
Mai Xiaowen stared wide-eyed as Luo Yi was dragged to the gym by four burly men, and also pulled Zhang Hao back from going over to "join in the fun".
"What are you looking at? That could corrupt the children. Come on, let's go discuss tomorrow's tactics."
After saying that, he pulled Zhang Hao back to his room. As for whether they were discussing tactics... well, nobody knows.
. . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . .
Meanwhile, Rometheus in the Tower of Babel took off his earplugs, rolled off the bed, stretched, yawned, and then got dressed and went outside.
"Hey Ella, what are you doing? Why are you looking at Zero's photos?"
Upon arriving at the laboratory, Rometheus saw Ella, just like he had done before, comparing Zhang Hao's photo with [Zero].
"Hiss~ Actually, I really think these two people look alike, but is it really possible for such a coincidence? Oh right, Demulan just dropped two Dongfeng missiles on Reis's hometown, and you didn't attend the previous online meeting."
Rometheus only smiled faintly when he heard the beginning, but the more he listened, the more surprised he became. After hearing that he had missed another online meeting, "a little" cold sweat began to seep from Rometheus's forehead. It seemed that this was already the umpteenth time he had missed an online meeting.
"They're even using missiles? Why didn't you tell me about something so important right away? And what about that online meeting? Have you forgotten why it's been changed to an in-person meeting now?"
Rometheus was almost in tears. It was because he never attended the online meetings before, and he could never find anyone to attend, that the meetings had to be held in person.
"Ella, don't bother me when I'm sleeping next time. Even if the sky falls, don't disturb me!"
At this moment, Ella silently took out her phone to record a message and played a recording of what Rometheus had said to her before.
"But, but you even did something like an explosion..."
Ella silently turned on another recording:
"Let me tell you, unless the Tower of Babel is blown up, sleeping is the most important thing to me, okay?"
Rometheus silently shut his mouth and turned his head 45 degrees to look at the sky.
"Reis blew up the industrial area of the space base, and Demulan is furious. He will personally lead a team to wipe out Reis tomorrow."
"Huh? Wait a minute, did I hear that right? That guy Rhys dares to bomb Demulan's territory?"
After seeing Ella nod silently, Rometheus couldn't help but sigh:
“I respect Reiss as a man. You know, Demulan has walked through the gates of hell once, and he still dares to provoke her like this. Tsk tsk tsk, he really doesn’t know what’s good for him.............. It looks like he’s about to die too.”
Chapter 205 Assistance
Rometheus couldn't help but shudder at the thought that Reiss would be facing Demulan in a rage.
Rometheus: Huh? Wait a minute? They weren't hitting me, so why was I shaking just now?
"But GTI will probably make a move next, right? Aren't they always talking about peace and balance?"
After hearing Ella's words, Rometheus revealed the same disdainful smile as Demulan. He was joking, wasn't Hafk always taking on two opponents at once? And who doesn't know what GTI's true colors are like? Utterly ugly.
"Hehe, Ella, you underestimated Demulan and overestimated GTI. They might indeed pull some tricks tomorrow, but if they see that Demulan is really going to wipe out Reiss regardless of the consequences, they will definitely slink back and pretend they didn't see anything."
There's nothing we can do. In Hafk's eyes, the GTI is nothing more than a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong, and it likes to sneak up on you from the shadows.
"See? If nothing unexpected happens, tomorrow, after the rocket launch, will be the end of Reis."
. . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . .
Faced with the impending apocalypse, Reese transformed into a head-scratching war god, frantically scratching his scalp while smoking a cigar.
"Damn it, this is so annoying. Ugh~ Is there any way to hold off Demulan? If I push all the people of Longbow Valley in front of me, will this crazy woman just open fire?"
At this moment, Reiss was very distressed. He couldn't find any help, and the armory he had placed in the Diamond Queen Hotel had been blown up. Fortunately, Reiss had previously set up an armory in Amiya Town, so he didn't have to surrender right now.
"Jingle Bell!"
Just then, the phone that Reis had tossed aside rang. Reis picked it up impatiently and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Damn it, is it that idiot again who got a new number and is bothering me?!"
Even so, Reese still answered the phone without hesitation:
"Hello, this is Reese."
"Heh, I know you're Rhys, the leader of Longbow Valley, right? I bet you're in a bit of trouble right now!"
The voice on the other end of the phone wasn't the same person who wanted to spend 100 million Haff coins to buy him as a lackey, but who could possibly know his current situation?
"Who are you? How did you know?"
Reis couldn't immediately determine the identity of the other party. After all, how could they know what was happening on their side in such a short time? Could they be Hafk's men again?
"Hehe, don't worry, I'm not one of Hafk's people. The reason I'm making this call to you is to give you a choice."
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to have mind-reading abilities, immediately guessing what Reis was about to say, which made Reis even more vigilant.
"What choice? First, tell me who you are? Or who you represent?"
"Hehe, you don't need to know that much. I can only say that I can help you solve your immediate problem, but..."
Seeing that the other party had put it this way, Reis knew that if he agreed, he would have to pay a heavy price.
"What do you want? As long as it's within my budget, I'll accept it."
