Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"You mean this Hamk really doesn't know the locations of those nobles? He only knows that the raven is in prison and that the old king was killed by that Yusef guy?"

Reis sat on his leather sofa listening to the report from the shieldman Asara. In a few days, Said would be coming to "visit" Hamk. The shieldman stopped the torture when Hamk was about to explode and had him sent back to the infirmary. He then came to report the information he had extracted from the torture to Reis.

"Damn it, this is going to be tough. That old hag Demulan will probably come and mess with me sometime soon. Finding Prince Asara in that prison... is going to be a real challenge."

As for why Reis wanted to find those lost members of the Asara royal family and nobles, it was naturally to gain the recognition of the legitimate bloodline. After all, the old king was dead, and Reis believed that his useless nobles and the Asara prince could be easily dealt with.

If these people recognize him as Asara's new king, then he will be the legitimate new king of Asara.

But now even Hamk doesn't know where those old royal nobles are. Finding them will be extremely difficult, since Asara is such a vast land, finding those nobles is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Reese: The main thing is, who knows if those idiots are dead or not? If they are, where am I supposed to find them for you?

But at least we know that Prince Asara is currently imprisoned in Hafk's prison, which is good news.

"Alright, you can go now."

After sending the shield bearer back, Reis began to think about how to find Asara's prince. It wouldn't be easy to get into Hafk's prison, and would Asara's prince support him in becoming Asara's new king?

"Damn it, forget about that for now. What's the point of thinking about it so much? Let's figure out how to stop that Demulan who could go crazy at any moment."

Reis was too lazy to think about things that far ahead. There was a huge problem waiting for him right now. This damned Demulan, isn't he just a Mandel brick? Why did he have to come all the way from the space base to mess with him?

"Damn it, they can all make this piece, why don't they just make their own? Why are they so fixated on mine? They're such cheapskates."

Reis took the source of the conflict out of the drawer and looked at it. Where had that damned Audrey gone? She had asked him to go through all that trouble to steal this thing, but then she disappeared without a trace. Was she playing games?

"But it seems there will be some unexpected surprises after the Mandel Brick is cracked. Tsk..... Taking it to Demulan's territory to crack is a bit too much. Let's go see what the people in the US have to say first."

Reis recalled a news report he had seen earlier stating that once the Mandel Brick in his possession was deciphered, its inherent technology and computing power would be comparable to that of a small country.

And this is exactly what Asara is lacking right now. Although he is very rich and can buy a lot of equipment, Reiss couldn't help but feel tempted when he thought about how he could use the deciphered Mandel bricks to continuously strengthen his army.

There was no other way. Reiss declared that he wasn't some illiterate fool like Said. He knew he could maximize the advantages of the Mandel Brick, but deciphering it required going to the space base…

"Damn it, let's do it. Let's see if we can mess with that old hag Mulan this time. If she's injured this time, the chances will be much better."

Chapter 394 Preparations

“Said, did Reis tell you before that Demulan would be causing trouble for him around this time? Speaking of which, Reis is really the most troublemaker after Hamk, with GTI on one side and Hamk on the other. The only difference is that Reis is not disliked by Asara and his people, right?”

Sophia flipped through the calendar in her office, looking at the date Said had mentioned for going to Longbow Valley to see that bastard Hamk, and asked Said:

"Probably. After all, Reis would never return that Mandel brick to the Hafk Group. In his eyes, he took that Mandel brick by force, so there's no way he would obediently return it to Hafk."

Thinking about the two squads he had borrowed supposedly to serve as logistics, Said rubbed his head in exasperation. What was going on? Why did this guy Reis always come to him to borrow people for no reason?

Youssef's side clearly has more soldiers, even though their territories are close together. They can't just take advantage of you like that.

Reese: Well, I can't help it. I'm really envious of your well-trained soldiers, Said. That's why I sent some soldiers and villagers to Ouroboros District, and now I'm short-handed. (●ˇ?ˇ●)

"Speaking of which, didn't Reese ask you to go with him to cause trouble for Xiao Hao and his gang? What was your answer then?"

"Of course I have to refuse him. What a joke. How could I possibly go after Xiao Hao with that idiot? Besides, to be honest, Reis has recently gotten so much money from who-knows-where. If he doesn't upgrade and arm his Longbow Valley this time, I really think Wei Long and his crew will blow it up."

Thinking of the destructive power of Dragon's magnetic bomb, Said also gave it high praise. The bomb's power was quite considerable, but in terms of accuracy... it was indeed not as good as Abel's Faith Shot.

Abel: You already said I'm a faith shooter, and you expect me to be accurate? Just shoot, that's all. Besides, I have to carry a shield, how am I supposed to aim? Luckily, Mr. Deep Blue said he'd teach me a method for shooting with a shield next time he comes.

"Sigh, these are turbulent times. Things haven't even calmed down for a little while, and is another battle about to break out?"

Sofia, somewhat exhausted, slumped onto the table, staring blankly at the sky outside the window. Before, she was just a little girl clinging to her grandfather, but war…

"Don't think too much about it. The war won't stop until Hafk leaves. There will only be a false moment of peace. We can't get lost in this false peace. Only by truly liberating Asara can we achieve true peace."

Seeing that Sofia was a little down, Said came over and patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, saying that the current peace was indeed very tempting, but if they indulged in this false peace, the fate of the previous village would be the same as the fate of their dam.

Sofia quietly watched Said. Was this the true value of being the political commissar of Dam Zero? It was indeed very good…

. . . . . . . . . . .

“Ms. Demurean, the army is ready. Headquarters has also sent two fighter jets to support us, and all the soldiers have been notified. You can depart at any time if you wish.”

Demulan, who was sitting in his office chair with his eyes closed, opened them after listening to Mary's report and said:

"Hmm, well done. I checked the weather forecast recently. The day after tomorrow, there will be heavy fog in Longbow Valley and some areas outside Baksh. At that time, we can catch Reis and his men off guard."

After listening to Desmoulins' words, Mary nodded, then said with some concern:

"Ms. Demurean, are you really going to go on stage yourself this time? In a little while... Miss Kami will be preparing for the graduation ceremony. What if you get injured then...?"

After hearing Mary's concerns, Desmoulins smiled confidently and looked at Mary, saying with certainty:

"Don't worry, Mary. My title as the safety director of the space base is not just for show. Besides, how can two armies be at war without a leader? Moreover, the opponent is a black chimpanzee like Reis who doesn't have any intelligence. Taking him down shouldn't be a problem."

Looking at the confident Demulan in front of her, Mary swallowed back the words of advice that were about to come out. In her opinion, this seemingly not very smart Reiss was definitely not as he appeared. In her opinion, to be able to become a leader in Asara, a place ravaged by war and devoid of order, he must have some skills.

Reese: Huh? I don't have any special skills, but I can still hold an S12K in each hand.

Said: That's right, although it's true that I'm not smart, I still have Xiao Hao and Sofia. With such good generals, how can I, Asara, not prosper!

“Mary, you’ve come at the right time. Could you take this M700 to the gun department for maintenance? Apart from watching a show at Hamk’s place lately, I haven’t been in any combat. This gun really needs to be serviced. Have them replace it with the latest sniper rifle suppressor.”

As she spoke, Demulan took her M700 from the shelf behind her and handed it to Mary. She had tried all the mainstream sniper rifles, but in terms of feel, she still preferred the M700, whether it was the AWM or other sniper rifles.

Demulan: If I remember correctly, Xiao Hao was also carrying a sniper rifle on his back at that time. It would be a good opportunity to teach these two kids some shooting skills. You know, in Asara, my sniping skills are second to none.

After receiving the M700, Mary immediately took it to the firearms department for maintenance. Although she didn't know why, her sixth sense and her daughter's intuition told Mary that Ms. Demulan's operation might not be as smooth as she had said.

Chapter 395 Preparation

Just as Mary had expected, Reis had summoned Barton to the outskirts of Longbow Valley to discuss how to ambush Demurean.

"Boss Reis, I checked the weather forecast, and there's going to be heavy fog in our area the day after tomorrow. Do you think we could take advantage of that..."

Barton raised an eyebrow at Reese as he spoke. He was sure Reese would understand what he meant.

"Dense fog? When did we start having this kind of foggy weather around here? I don't remember ever seeing it much when I was a kid!"

But to Barton's surprise, their boss's focus seemed a bit abnormal. What good person would be concerned about when the fog would appear? Shouldn't they be setting up more traps during this foggy time?

However, since it was Reese who asked the question, Barton, as the undisputed second-in-command of Longbow Valley, could only sigh and helplessly explain to Reese:

“Boss Reis, this is a war of this scale that has never broken out in Asara before. Think about it, how many times has our Longbow Valley been rebuilt in this period of time? We have already ruined the ecological environment of this land. Is the appearance of this smog really that strange?”

Reese: Hmm...that makes sense. Speaking of which, since this smoggy weather is so beneficial to me, what if I created some artificial smoke...?

Reese immediately shared a rather dangerous and unreliable idea with Barton, who was standing nearby. After hearing Reese's plan, Barton was speechless.

Barton: I always thought you were pretty smart, Boss Reese, but I really can't agree with your idea.

"Boss Reis, this is absolutely unacceptable! You know, our Longbow Valley is such a large area. If a wildfire breaks out, the consequences are unimaginable. If a wildfire really starts, we simply won't be able to stop it from spreading."

After Barton had been babbling in his ear for several minutes, Reese temporarily abandoned his dangerous idea. After all, it seemed that the price to pay for a large smoke bomb was quite high, and it was better to just dig a hole and plant a mine.

"So, Patton, what are your thoughts? Tell us!"

Reese turned to look at Barton, the strategist from his valley. Reese was perfectly capable of fighting, but when it came to underhanded tactics…

Reese admitted that he was a little embarrassed to say it out loud, that he could secretly plot behind the scenes, but he couldn't be so outrageous in front of his subordinates. So now he needed to listen more to Barton and the others' opinions.

"Um... if you ask me, it's like planting mines, pouring gasoline, and then setting them on fire."

Upon hearing Barton's "honest" suggestion, Reese couldn't help but take off his sunglasses and silently stare at Barton with his big eyes.

That's it?

After Barton finished speaking, he looked at Reese's somewhat disappointed eyes and exclaimed in bewilderment, "Is this still not enough?"

"That's all...isn't that enough?"

"Sigh, you... Forget it, the people here aren't suited for this. If you're going to plant mines, how do you know where that old woman Demulan will pop out from?"

After saying that, Reis shook his head and went back to his room. He realized that none of the people around him could be relied on. It seemed that he would have to think of a solution himself.

After returning to his room, Reis looked at the vast forest in the distance and couldn't help but murmur:

"Is setting a fire really not an option? I want to see if Hafk will really let the fire spread to their radar station."

Barton, completely unaware of the situation, awkwardly scratched his head. What could Lord Reis possibly be dissatisfied with? But never mind that for now, having someone plant a few landmines would definitely be a good idea.

Thinking of this, Patton turned back and instructed several squads of soldiers to mark the locations on the map and then have them plant the landmines and gasoline in those places.

Barton: Boss Reese, what other tricks do you want to pull? You know, the one on the other side is Demulan. I wonder if you have any way to catch her off guard?

Meanwhile, inside the Special Operations Unit, Zhang Hao received the firsthand news from Said. After reading it, he spoke to the others:

"It seems like another big battle is about to break out in Longbow Valley of Reis these days. They're really something else. They're always having a big fight with Hafk whenever they have nothing else to do. You could say Reis is becoming Asara's legendary bomb-resistant king."

Wei Long nodded in agreement. Compared to the gentle development of the Zero Dam in Said, it seems that the development of the Longbow Valley in Reis is really inseparable from war. The last time Reis replenished its military strength, it was when it occupied Hamk's territory.

"Is this what they call using war to sustain war? But the frequency of their attacks is indeed a bit too fast, and this time the opponent isn't Hamk anymore. Think about how Demulan dealt with Reis last time... I think they just launched a missile at Reis. I wonder if they'll send another one to Reis this time."

"No, after the last missile launch at the space base, our GTI leadership started the trial of the Hafk Group in the International Military Tribunal. After all, what they did directly disrupted the balance of power."

Deep Blue also shared his opinion. They had heard the explosion clearly at the Special Operations Unit last time. It leveled the Diamond Queen Hotel in Reis. If a few more missiles were to hit, what would Asara do? They could just surrender. What would be the point of fighting then?

Chapter 396 Attack

"It's getting foggy. Are our men ready?"

Looking at the area in the distance, already shrouded in smog, Desmoulins asked:

"Yes, Ms. Demulan, everything is arranged, but... do we really want to attack Reiss in such terrible weather? I have a bad feeling about it..."

But before Mary could finish speaking, Desmoulins interrupted her, looking at his worried secretary, and said:

“Alright Mary, I know what you’re worried about, but risk and opportunity always go hand in hand. What you’re seeing is that Reis and his gang might use this smoggy weather to set up some traps to cause us trouble.”

“Ms. Demulan, perhaps Reese isn’t as foolish as we think. Perhaps we should go and do more…”

“Mary, I’ve never underestimated that damned Reis. He’s a formidable opponent, really. But I always like to belittle my opponents in words but take them seriously in tactics. Come on, let me show you my battle plan this time.”

After saying that, Demulan brought Mary to her electric cat and opened the mission operation plan for Mary to see.

“Ms. Demouran, this…”

After glancing at the proposal briefly, Mary didn't say anything more. It had to be Ms. Demulan. She had always thought that Ms. Demulan would suffer a great loss if she underestimated Reis.

But now it seems that unless Reese pulls off some unexpected move, Ms. De Moulin's team will only return victorious this time.
