Reborn as the Darling of the Delta

But Xiao Hao told me that Shen Lan just spent his free time cooking and washing dishes for everyone in the kitchen, and occasionally went to his room to read books and deal with the higher-ups at GTI. None of the above mentioned that he exercised!

Shen Lan stood up, patted Zhang Hao's head, who was standing next to her, and said:

"How's Xiao Hao? Isn't your Uncle Shenlan amazing? If you eat more and exercise more, you can be just as amazing as me!"

Said: Really? Is it because I didn't eat enough? Looks like I'll have to eat two more cornbreads with every meal from now on. I don't believe it. Is he really unsurpassable?

Zhang Hao looked at Said, whose eyes were gradually brightening, with a sense of embarrassment. He didn't know if he would be fooled by Shen Lan, but it seemed that Uncle Said had already been fooled to the point of being completely lost. He hoped that when he came to see Said next time, Said wouldn't end up with a huge stomach like Brother Weilong did last time.

Wei Long: Hehe, it's not just last time, this time I've successfully eaten my way to a huge stomach. (●'?'●)

"I'm leaving now, Uncle Said. I'm going to take a nap. Don't be discouraged, okay? After all, you challenged Uncle Deep Blue. You know, Uncle Deep Blue sent that Reis flying with just one punch!"

Zhang Hao also came to comfort Said, who was "slumped" on the table. After all, it would be difficult for anyone to accept such a thing so easily, but Uncle Said, the opponent you are going to challenge this time is... quite powerful!

"Okay, go and rest, Xiao Hao. Don't worry about me. Just let me digest this a little. I won't be discouraged. I will definitely continue training. Next time... next time I will definitely prove myself!"

Seeing that Said had recovered, Zhang Hao was relieved. It seemed that he didn't need to say anything more.

"Oh, right, Uncle Said, Sister Sophia asked me to tell you that since we have guests, your physics homework for this morning is waived, but you still have to do your junior high chemistry and math homework later!"

Said: I'm devastated. I feel like dying right now. Forget about homework, just let this world end!

Upon hearing this, Roy went to the "half-dead" Said's side, laughed loudly for a while, patted him on the shoulder and offered a few words of "comfort," before slipping away without a trace.

"You bastard, Roy, you're a real bastard! You'd better see if you can even sit at the table for dinner tonight. If you can, I'll make Wuming believe you!"

nameless:??????

After Zhang Hao and the others returned to the hotel, Said was also dragged upstairs by Wuming. What awaited him was an extremely insane math and chemistry test. Thinking about this, Said thought it would be better to set off to attack Hamk today.

In Said's opinion, compared to doing the homework Sophia assigned him, it would be easier to rush up and drag Hamk out of the tank and launch a crazy attack with Reis. He had always been a military general, and... military generals didn't seem to need to learn math or anything like that.

Now let's turn our attention to the Secret Service.

"Ah~~~ I'm full. You know what, Terry, your grilling was pretty good. Although I think Xiao Hao's is better, it's really impressive that you can eat so much here."

Uluru leaned back in his chair contentedly, picked up a piece of dental floss and started eating. The roasted meat and wine were so delicious that even Red Wolf had to have a bowl of wine to accompany his hearty meal after seeing him eat so heartily.

Red Wolf: Although I'm quite unconvinced, it does seem to taste a little better than my barbecue, just a little bit better... really just a little bit better, really.

"Ugh~ When will Xiao Hao and the others come back? I want Xiao Hao to make me a whole poached chicken when he does. Besides, it's only been a morning, and the smell of Xiao Hao's pillow is already fading. How am I going to live then?!"

After finishing her meal, Mai Xiaowen began to think about what to do now that Xiaohao was gone and she couldn't sleep well at night. All she could do now was hug the pillow that Xiaohao used to use to "comfort" herself a little.

"Don't think about it anymore, just bear with it for a couple of days. Xiao Hao and the others will be back the day after tomorrow. I've eaten my fill, and I'm going to continue my research."

After wiping her mouth, Zoya headed to the lab. She couldn't let that bastard Rometheus fall too far behind. If Xiaohao thought she was no good, she would completely explode.

Rometheus: Huh? Sister, are you serious? You're jealous of me too? We... seem to be different, right?

Chapter 279 Preparing for the Northern Expedition (1)

Time flew by and it was already the next day.

Early in the morning, Saeed arrived outside the administration building fully armed and with a serious expression (which could not be seen).

At this moment, the five teams were already lined up neatly, looking at Said as he approached, waiting for his instructions.

"Everyone here, do you know why I chose you for such an important mission?"

Saeed walked up to the crowd and asked.

"Report! I don't know!"

The soldiers answered honestly, but since Commander Said needed their strength, they certainly couldn't let him down.

"So, do you all know who we're going to defeat today?"

Said asked again.

"Report, it's Hamk!!!"

This time, the soldiers' eyes also changed to those filled with hatred. Seeing this, Said nodded in satisfaction and then explained to the soldiers:

“That’s right, the one we’re going to take down this time is Hamk, who can be described as a beast. Some of you may not know why I chose you. Alright! I’ll tell you now.”

Saeed paused, glanced at the soldiers, and then said:

"Everyone here originally had a happy family and a decent life. I was the same before. But! It was because of that bastard Hamk that our family was torn apart and our beautiful life was destroyed. How many of you here were separated from your loved ones because of that scoundrel Hamk? Raise your hands."

After speaking, Sayed raised his hand and looked at the soldiers in front of him.

After hearing Said's words, the soldiers raised their hands, their faces showing anger. Upon hearing the name of that bastard Hamk, some of the hot-tempered soldiers clenched their fists tightly.

But after everyone raised their hands, they looked around and were surprised to find that everyone present had raised their hands. So, it seems...

"Yes, we are all pitiful people, losers whose homes were destroyed by that bastard Hamk. We are powerless to protect our families, and we can only eke out a living in this world with hatred. But do you all really want to continue like this?"

As Said spoke, the soldiers' breathing quickened, as if they were recalling painful memories: firelight, dismembered limbs, mockery, and cries.

"Ha... That bastard Hamk cut off both arms of my one-year-old child and sent him to the Hafk Group! Commander Said, I want revenge... I want to kill that bastard Hamk!!!"

A soldier cried out to Said, saying that not only had his child been killed by Hamk, but his wife, his elderly mother, and the once peaceful village had all been completely destroyed by Hamk in a single day!

This cry triggered an outburst from the others, who unleashed their pent-up grief in a roar. At the front, Said listened quietly as the soldiers recounted the atrocities committed by Hamk.

After the soldiers calmed down a bit, Said also said:

"That's right, we were all killed by Hamk. I was originally the son of a hunter. During one of my hunts, my village was wiped out. I was also disfigured by Hamk's bomb. So, this time I gathered everyone together to fight Hamk."

Seemingly recalling the gruesome death he witnessed his father, Sayyid's voice choked with emotion:

"Now is our best chance, our chance for revenge! This time I will lead you all, we will all go and find that bastard Hamk to avenge our dead loved ones!"

Saeed grew increasingly agitated, practically shouting the last few words with all his might. After he finished speaking, there was a few seconds of silence, followed by an explosion of noise as everyone raised their weapons and roared:

"Revenge! We must get revenge! For our families!"

This commotion drew Sofia to the window. She propped her head up with her hand, looking at Said standing at the front, at the anger in his eyes, and at the way he led everyone away. Sofia couldn't help but shed tears.

"Grandpa, Said went to avenge you, don't worry. It won't be long before that bastard Hamk goes to hell. Grandpa... I miss you. I want to hear your voice again, I want to talk to you more..."

. . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . .

Meanwhile, in the Longbow Valley.

"Boss Reis, we need to get up! Said will be here soon!"

This bodyguard named Barton was recalled by Reis a few days ago. Of the previous batch of bodyguards, only Barton remains. Reis promoted him again, making him the captain of the bodyguards under him.

But it's almost 8 o'clock now, and their boss, Reis, is still snoring in his room. A few minutes ago, Said sent a message saying that Said has brought his soldiers to Longbow Valley to meet them.

Seeing that there was no response to his shouts, Barton mustered his courage and began pounding on Reese's door.

"Boss Reese, you really can't sleep anymore! If you sleep any longer, Hamk will run away! Get up quickly, we need to leave!"

Our Reis also had a wonderful dream in which he became the new king of Asara and began his coronation ceremony. But just as he was about to sit on the supreme throne, a loud knocking on the door brought Reis back to reality.

"Damn it, which idiot disturbed my sweet dream? I was about to become king, and now you've woken me up. I'll fuck your whole family."

Reese immediately launched into a very "civilized" and friendly interaction with the door, warmly greeting each of Barton's family members. Didn't he know to wait until he finished his sweet dream before waking him up?

"I'm going to check what time it is. They're rushing me like this. Let me see... damn it, it's almost 8 o'clock."

Chapter 280 Preparing for the Northern Expedition (2)

Reese slammed the door open and grabbed Barton by the shoulder, shaking him violently.

"Holy crap, Patton, you can't even do a simple task like waking me up? What's wrong with you? I've never seen you this unreliable before. Has Said already arrived? Damn it, my troops haven't even assembled yet."

"Lord Ray... I... have... finished gathering for you, please... stop shaking, I... I'm going to throw up."

Under Reis's vigorous shaking, Barton almost vomited up his entire breakfast. Reis hadn't held back at all; a couple of shakes from him, an ordinary man, nearly scrambled his brains.

"Oh?! Oh, it's you again, hahaha, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. Don't worry, I'll reward you handsomely when you get back!"

Upon hearing this, Reese chuckled and put down Barton, whose face had turned pale. After setting him down, he prepared to tidy himself up a bit, since he was going to meet Said, this country bumpkin, and he wanted to show Said what "aristocratic air" really meant.

Reis: We really need to make sure that country bumpkin Said learns a lot about Asara's aristocratic culture. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing to say that Said is my great general. We can't let things stay like they are now.

"I'm going to change my clothes. Everyone's here, right? Where's the tank? I told you before that I'd give that Saeed two heavy tanks."

"Boss Bao, I've prepared everything you asked for. Now we're just waiting for you to finish packing so we can head out to meet up with Said."

Reis laughed with satisfaction after hearing this. Ah, it's only handy to have a personal guard like this who's been with me for so long. I don't even need to give them any special instructions; they can arrange everything perfectly.

"Hahaha, well done, soldier. I think money and status are no longer important to you, so you've earned the praise of the strongest man in all of Asara, hahaha."

Patton: No, in terms of status, I really can't get any further improvement, but as for money... of course, the more the merrier! (???`?)

In his room, Reis began carefully selecting which "combat suit" he should wear today to twist the head off that idiot Hamk. You know, among the people Reis hates the most, even the Hamk Group has to take a backseat.

It's fair to say that, aside from his few remaining subordinates, practically everyone in the Asara region wanted Hamk dead.

You have to understand that Hamk has been wreaking havoc in the Asara region under the banner of restoring the Asara royal family. If Raven, who is still in Tide Prison, were to come out, the first thing he would probably do is feed Hamk a pistol and let him taste the bullet.

"Boss Reis, are you ready? Our guards just sent a message that Said has arrived with his five units."

Seeing that Reese hadn't come out of the room yet, Barton couldn't help but urge him on. After all, he and Said were now allies, and leaving such a large group of people outside like this would make anyone uncomfortable.

"Alright, alright, why are you rushing me? I'm just trying to show off the perfect image of our Longbow Valley. Next time, go find me some beauties, you know? As the leader of Longbow Valley, I don't even have a woman by my side. I wake up every day to a bunch of rough men like you, and I'm not in a good mood at all."

After much deliberation, Reis finally chose his usual outfit. There was no other way; after all, he was going to fight this time, and that was the only outfit that suited him best.

Patton: So tired... I've ended up with such a leader.

After Reis was ready, Barton followed behind him and quickly arrived at the meeting point he had agreed upon with Said. When Reis arrived, Said and his troops were already resting on the spot.

"Hey, Saeed, I'm really sorry. I was dealing with some things and it took me a little while. Come on, hurry up and bring those two heavy tanks over. Don't dawdle, hurry up, don't keep Saeed waiting."

Patton: Handling official business? Is it in your dreams that you're handling it with beautiful women? You always dump a ton of work on me, do you really think I'm some tireless nuclear-powered donkey? Luckily, I also delegated those tasks, hehe.

"It's alright, it's alright. We haven't been here long. You're all ready, right? I brought five teams with me, and with these, I think it should be enough."

When Said saw Reis approach him with a grin and give him a reasonable explanation, he didn't say anything more. After all, Reis had given him two heavy tanks directly, plus the high-tech tank made by Hamk that he had discussed with him before. Said felt like he was getting something for free.

"Oh, that's enough, Brother Said. Your dam doesn't have many fighting forces to begin with, mostly women and children. Look at all the people you've brought. Don't worry, I definitely won't let you leave empty-handed this time. You can take all the supplies from Hamk's side as well. If you need more, just ask me."

Said: How outdated is your information? My dam was old, weak and disabled several months ago. Does your information never get updated?

Reis also glanced at Said's attire. Hmm, he was still the same old country bumpkin, only the cloak he was wearing had been changed, but it was still hard to hide Said's air of superiority.

Reese: Sigh, Said is really something. Didn't we give him so much money? He should at least buy himself some clothes, a Rolex, and a few bottles of high-end liquor to enjoy himself. Why is he still dressed like this? I'll have to give him a good talking to about how to enjoy life.

"Everything ready? Alright, let's go!!!"

Chapter 281 Three-Way Attack

"Mary, have all the troops assembled?"

At the space base, after Demulan finished loading the M700 with bullets, he stood up and asked Mary, who was standing to the side.

"Everything is ready, Ms. Demouran. You can leave there anytime you wish."

Looking at Demulan, who was ready in front of her, Mary couldn't help but have her eyes sparkle.

Wow, Ms. Desmulan in front of me is so incredibly handsome! She's the epitome of femininity, the most beautiful woman of all. I wonder if I'll ever be able to keep up with her.

Mary: Ms. Desmoulins is our guiding light; her brilliance is simply dazzling! But I will definitely work even harder, and I will definitely catch up with Ms. Desmoulins's pace. I am the strongest secretary in the space base!!!

Claire: Wow, this looks so exciting! But why doesn't the best secretary like you spend some time in this prison? This is only my first day, and I'm already missing the outside world. I can't believe I just got out of my hospital bed and now I'm in jail. Life is getting better and better.

Demulan looked at Mary, whose eyes were sparkling, and smiled with satisfaction. If all his subordinates could be like Mary, he thought he could help Mr. Jacob take over Asara completely very quickly.

In Demulan's eyes, he came on behalf of Asara to help the Asara people build their homes and improve their technology, but these barbaric natives actually regarded them, the Hafk, as foreign invaders.

Especially that damned native Hamk, before he experienced that explosion, he was always unwilling to use force. He was thinking of helping Hamk finish building Asara as soon as possible so he could go back and spend some quality time with his precious Kami.

However, not only did Asara's people not appreciate it, but that beast Hamk also planned a massive bombing specifically targeting their Hafk leadership. He himself was trying to protect a Hafk leader by facing the bombing head-on.

In the end, he lost an eye, his face was disfigured, his vocal cords were damaged, and he became a vegetable.

So, after being rescued by the Hafk Group through all means, she met with Mr. Jacob again and picked up the Polaris that she had previously refused.

This also means that the gentle, peace-loving Demurean who was once unwilling to use force is completely dead. Now she is the security director of the Hafk Space Center and Jacob's deepest pawn planted in Asara.

She wanted the Asara people to know the consequences of their betrayal.

Demulan was not unaware of the dark deals between Rometheus and Hamk, but now, she was surprised to find herself slowly beginning to understand things she had never been able to comprehend before. If she hadn't experienced that explosion, she would have stopped Rometheus without hesitation and condemned his extremely inhumane behavior.
