"Brother, is there 70 yuan in cash in this card you left me?"

Chen Shuo's incredulous voice came from the other end of the phone.

Although prices in Haixing City are not cheap, 70 yuan in cash is more than enough for Chen Shuo and his parents to buy a better house and live a materially comfortable life for a few years.

Such a large sum of cash was certainly unacceptable to Chen Shuo, who was just a high school student.

"That money isn't just for you. I've asked Haixing Bank to allocate a limit for you. You can only use 2 yuan of it; the rest can only be withdrawn in your parents' names," Chen Feng said.

"The question is, where did this 70 yuan in cash come from?"

"It's the venue fee for the Jian family for three months."

"Brother, how come you're hooking up with Jian Mei again? How can you do this to Sister Siyu?"

Hearing Chen Shuo's righteous defense of Liu Siyu, Chen Feng snorted coldly.

"You should focus on your studies. I haven't done anything to wrong Sister Siyu, so you can rest assured now."

"That's good."

"Chen Shuo, I estimate that someone will come to pick you up soon and take you to Shangcheng temporarily, but remember what I said: verify their identities and don't go with just anyone."

"I know, don't worry, brother, we're all ready."

At this moment, Chen Feng, standing in the corridor inside the Haixingcheng military airport, was just looking at the scene outside the window, anxiously tapping the railing with his right hand.

At this moment, a large-scale conscription was taking place at the Starfish City military airfield.

On the spacious tarmac, sixteen transport military aircraft stood in neat rows, gleaming with a cold, stern light like steel eagles about to take flight.

Alongside the airport runway, a long line of military trucks stretched out at the airport entrance, while large numbers of Starfish City troops and automated armored units entered the airport from the checkpoint.

Judging from the scale of the mobilization alone, Chen Feng judged that Haixing City would deploy at least half of its military force for this operation—that is, at least several thousand soldiers and dozens of automated mechs.

However, what made Chen Feng somewhat uneasy was not the military deployment in Haixing City.

Rather, it refers to the number of troops involved in this operation.

The Great Xia Kingdom is divided into Upper City, Middle City, and Lower City. Lower City is equivalent to a second-tier city on Blue Star, while Middle City is between a first-tier city and a second-tier city on Blue Star.

And the three upper cities of the Great Xia Kingdom...

It was indeed the culmination of the high integration of Great Xia technology and magical civilization, a future city standing at the forefront of the times.

From the air, the overall layout of the three Great Xia cities is different, but they all resemble sophisticated giant chip wafers.

The city's buildings are constructed using advanced nanomaterials and smart alloys. They can automatically adjust temperature, humidity, and light according to the external environment, and also possess self-repairing and deformation capabilities.

Transparent energy pathways crisscross the upper city, through which various flying vehicles and maglev vehicles move freely, allowing anyone to reach any corner of the city.

The people there live in a highly intelligent environment.

Their homes are equipped with various smart devices and robotic assistants, and their consciousness can even be connected to the city's information network through brain-computer interface technology.

Moreover, like other cities in the Great Xia Dynasty, they also have warriors with magical combat abilities.

More importantly, the number and rank of the warriors serving the upper city far surpasses that of a mid-sized city like Starfish City.

Just then, a figure appeared beside Chen Feng.

The unfriendly aura emanating from him immediately caught Chen Feng's attention.

It turned out to be Orochi's Four Spears from Sakura Castle.

"Is it you?"

Chen Feng looked at Orochi Four Spears with some confusion.

He had already arranged for all the guards who were about to depart to make final preparations, but he did not expect that Orochi Four Spears would know that he was here.

"Deputy Captain Chen."

Orochi Four Spears smiled.

As an exchange student between the Orochi family and the Jian family, Orochi Four Spears did indeed cause quite a stir when he entered the Combat Academy.

He was like a ferocious beast awakened on the battlefield, exuding a chilling fighting aura, and the four gleaming spears in his hands tore through the domains of countless warriors.

However, the glory that originally belonged to him seemed to have changed significantly because of Chen Feng's appearance.

"I have come here to convey the goodwill of the Orochi family of Sakura Castle to you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng couldn't help but smile faintly.

"It seems the time has come, why not go with the flow?"

"If the Four Gun Brothers need any help, I'm happy to assist them; there's no need for the family name."

Orochi Four Spears cupped his hands in greeting, but his expression turned cold.

"Captain Chen, I originally didn't want to take on this matter, but the clan patriarch personally instructed me to ensure the documents were delivered at any cost... Although we have a history of conflict, I believe Captain Chen Feng is an upright person."

Chen Feng nodded, and then reached out his hand to Orochi Four Spears, asking for the documents.

"No problem, let me take a look."

Orochi Four Spears immediately took out a scroll from his armor.

It was a scroll that emitted a strange light.

This scroll appears ordinary, yet it exudes a mysterious aura that commands respect, as if it conceals countless unknown secrets.

The scroll is made of a very special material, neither silk nor paper, and cherry blossom patterns that emit a faint glow are engraved on both ends of the scroll shaft.

Chen Feng, who was well-versed in the social culture of the Great Xia Dynasty, immediately understood.

This scroll likely represents, to some extent, the will of the lord of Sakura Castle.

Chen Feng took the scroll and slowly opened it to examine its contents.

[City Lord's Decree]

[I, Orochi Genfeng, wield the power of the Orochi clan, protecting the peace of this region, governing all affairs within the city, resolving disputes, and leading the city's people towards prosperity. There is an urgent matter at hand, and I hereby appoint Captain Chen Feng to receive this secret order. He must act accordingly to prevent any conflict between the two cities.]

The Orochi family is a loyal and valiant clan of our city, who have protected Sakura City for generations, making outstanding contributions to its prosperity and stability. Their family has a profound heritage and exceptional scientific research capabilities. Therefore, I hereby order Chen Feng to immediately depart for Sera City to negotiate with the Orochi family and others there in my name, ensuring that all parameters of the [Eye of the Giant Beast] are obtained completely and accurately.

The Rising Sun family, once a powerful and influential clan in our city, has recently grown ambitious, plotting rebellion and disrupting the city's harmony and stability. Regarding this beast tide, Rising Sun Winter harbors treacherous intentions, attempting to overthrow our city's rule. If not eliminated promptly, he will become a major threat to our city and endanger the safety of its citizens.

[Official document signed: Yagi-no-Mae Genpu]

Upon seeing this, Chen Feng couldn't help but sigh.

Because he knew he was likely caught in a power struggle.

Even more fatal is that Sakura City's strength is no less than that of Starfish City.
