Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

Chapter 431 The Dinner (2)

When Yusuf saw the Diamond Queen Hotel, which was completely different from what he remembered, he was a little dazed. It had only been a few months since he last came to Reiss, had the place really changed so much?

Looking at the incredibly luxurious Diamond Queen Hotel in front of him, Youssef couldn't help but feel a little panicked. Had Reis struck oil? If he remembered correctly, this hotel of his had been blown up by a missile fired by an enraged Demulan, hadn't it?

Now look at it for yourself, this new Diamond Hotel is not only completed, but it has also become more luxurious, looking just like a royal palace.

"Lord Youssef, our boss Reis is here to invite you."

Just as Youssef was still looking at the Diamond Queen Hotel in surprise, Barton came out and stepped forward to greet Youssef and his group.

"Okay, let's go up too."

Seeing that the people who had been hosting him had come out, Youssef suppressed his surprise and nodded to Barton, indicating that he could lead the way.

Led by Patton, Youssef followed him into the Diamond Queen Hotel. Youssef had the same expression as Saeed when he first arrived here. After all, the exterior of the hotel was already quite luxurious, but the interior was even more shocking.

Luxurious! It's absolutely luxurious. After seeing the interior, Yusef couldn't think of any other words to describe his shock except that Reis was incredibly rich. He could build such a building himself, but then... he wouldn't have enough money to buy weapons and equipment for his soldiers.

Judging from the outcome of Reis's previous battle with Demulan, it's impossible that all the money was used to build such a hotel. Just how rich is Reis now?

Reis: Hehehe, not much, not much, hiss~~~ maybe only a dozen or so Saids.

Saeed: Shut up! You don't understand my food reserves, okay? I'd like to see what you'll do when we run out of food! (╬▔皿▔)╯

"Hey, what has your boss Reis been up to lately? Where did he get so much money? I don't remember giving you any extra military funds every month, did I?"

The more Yusef looked, the more alarmed he became. He couldn't help but ask Barton, who was leading the way, "This Reis doesn't seem to be the same big black guy who followed me around saying he wanted to drive out the Hafk Group. It seems he had ulterior motives for calling me here this time."

"Haha, well... let's discuss this in detail when you, Chief Yousef, have dinner with our boss Reis later. I'm just a lowly soldier, and I don't know the answer to your question."

Upon hearing this question, Barton couldn't help but chuckle and then passed the buck to Reese. Besides, he really didn't know the power behind his boss, but judging from the resource supply situation, it must be a very powerful organization!

Patton also said that he had never seen his boss make such a peaceful phone call before. He didn't even start with a 'f***ing' attitude. Such an organization must be one of the top in the world.

United States: Brother Bao, you're the one who got it!

Just as Youssef was about to ask something more, Patton said that he had led them to the door of Reiss's study, and then led the soldiers behind Youssef to another room.

Seeing this, Youssef had no choice but to go inside. As soon as he entered Reis's study, Patton, who had finished arranging the other soldiers, came over and gently closed the door. At this moment, Reis's rough voice came out.

"Hey, Brother Yousef, what are you still standing there for? It'll be ready soon, hehehe. I even specially asked our top chef to prepare such a big table of delicious food. Come, come, have a seat."

Upon seeing Youssef, Reis stood up with a smile and greeted him. He also took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and poured Youssef a glass after he sat down, saying:

"Haha, Brother Youssef, you've been a busy man for months now. It's been several months since you last visited me. How's it going? I think my construction is going pretty well."

Seeing this, Youssef couldn't help but nod. In any case, Reis was indeed managing Longbow Valley very well. He had valued Reis's ability to lead troops into battle, which was why he entrusted him with the management of Longbow Valley and the outskirts of Baksh, the largest area in the region. He hadn't expected it to be such a good decision.

"But Rhys, you have to tell me the truth about this. In that battle with Demulan before, did you start this wildfire?"

Seeing that Reis had also sat back down, Youssef was too lazy to beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

After hearing Youssef's question, Reiss paused for a moment, then took off his sunglasses, looked at Youssef, and said:

“I didn’t expect I couldn’t hide it from you, brother. Yes, I set the fire, but it was my only option. We all know how important plants are in Asara. But given the situation, if I hadn’t set that fire, you wouldn’t be seeing me now.”

After hearing Reis admit that he started the fire, Youssef initially intended to speak up and have a serious talk with him. However, after hearing Reis's subsequent words and seeing Reis's "sincere" expression, his accusations ultimately turned into a long sigh.

"Sigh! You, you're just killing eight hundred enemies while losing a thousand of your own. I don't believe that no one has lost their life trying to put out this fire. And let me tell you, why are you holding onto that Mandel brick? With our current technology in Asara, even if you got it, we wouldn't be able to use it. If you ask me, if Demurran attacks again, you should just give it back."

When Reis heard Yusef's "bad idea," he gave a disdainful laugh the moment Yusef lowered his head. Return it? He had earned the Mandel brick through his own skill; why should he return it?

Chapter 432 The Dinner (3)

At this moment, Reiss took out the Mandel brick from a drawer behind him, placed it in front of Youssef, and said:

"I went to great lengths to get this. And let me tell you, damn it, I have a way to get my hands on this Mandel Brick. And let me tell you, if I get this and decipher it, I'll get a hefty sum of money, you understand?"

Reis also put away his smile and said to Youssef with a serious expression:

"Brother, the reason I called you here is because I need your help with something. If this works out, I'll give you a very satisfactory reward. What do you think, brother?"

Reis swirled the wine in his glass and then looked at Youssef, revealing his plan. If the plan succeeded, not only would his status in the United States rise significantly, but even if Hafk sent more people to cause him trouble, he could simply say that the United States had taken it away.

At that time, if the Hafk Group still wanted to take action, those GTIs who liked to hide in the background and watch the show would have to stand up and help their side, because at that point, it would be the Hafk Group causing trouble.

Deep Blue: Well, according to procedure and logic, we do need to intervene, but unfortunately, I am the main person in charge of the Asara region this time, and I... am the logic.

"You... what do you want to do? I sense that your current thoughts are extremely dangerous!"

When Yusef saw Reis's expression, he couldn't help but lean back. Could it be that Reis wasn't planning to stop yet? And judging from his expression, he... wanted to decipher the Mandel Brick as well?

Yusef was taken aback by the audacity of Reis, who dared to attempt to decipher the Mandel Brick. That required access to the Demulan space station; what was he up to? What was going on in his head?

"Reis, are you... are you crazy? Do you know what the consequences will be if you still think about deciphering that useless Mandel Brick? It will mean that Longbow Valley will be wiped out by the Hafk Group and become their territory, do you know that?"

Seeing that Youssef was already somewhat on the defensive, Reis calmly waved his hand at him, signaling him to calm down a bit, and then said with a smile again:

"Brother Youssef, don't be in such a hurry. I haven't finished speaking yet. Think about it, I sincerely invited you here so that we could discuss this matter properly, right?"

After listening to what Reis said, Youssef finally understood that he had fallen into Reis's trap. Damn it, he shouldn't have been lured over by that news about the Asara royal family.

Yusuf: Damn it, that idiot Saeed is still the best. He's always being bossed around by me. Now this damn Reis is even eyeing me.

"What do you mean 'it's my business'? Let me tell you, if you still consider me, Yousef, your big brother, then take my advice and just return this Mandel brick to Hafk. There's no need to fight tooth and nail with the Hafk Group over something like this!"

However, in the face of Youssef's persuasion, Reis merely curled his lip in disdain, took out the walkie-talkie beside him, and said:

"Alright, you can bring your things in now."

After hearing Reis say that, while Youssef was still wondering what Reis wanted to do, the door to the room was pushed open, and several Asara soldiers walked in carrying boxes.

"Reis, what... what are you trying to do?"

Seeing this, Youssef was momentarily flustered. What did Reis want to do? It seemed like they hadn't broken up yet, so was he planning to take action right here?

"Hey, hey, brother Youssef, don't be so nervous. What's the big deal? Do you think I'm going to lay a hand on you?"

Seeing that Youssef's expression immediately tensed up, Reiss also spoke up.

Reese: Damn it, how can this be misunderstood? Aside from liking to bully people a little, uh... occasionally killing a few, I would never fucking lay a hand on my own people like that beast Hamk. This Yusef... really broke my heart.

Of course, if Yusuf keeps blocking his path to becoming emperor... well, who knows what he'll do next. (???)

"What the hell are you idiots still standing there for? Hurry up and open the fucking box for me! Can't you see you've scared my big brother? You all need a beating!"

After being scolded by Reis, the Asara soldiers quickly came to Youssef and opened the boxes they were carrying.

Upon seeing the contents of the box, Youssef immediately frowned. Looking at the gold on one side and the Haff coins on the other, Youssef turned to Reis and, after a long silence, said:

"You...did you buy Longbow Valley? Where did you get so much money? This couldn't have been done by you. You don't have that ability, and it's impossible to do something like this here."

Youssef finally understood. This time, Reis came to him not only to ask for his help, but also to tell him that he no longer needed his support and that he could start his own business.

"Hehehe, brother, don't be so serious. What's in front of you is just a sample. Once we reach an agreement, you can fill that truck and tow it away."

Reese, still sporting his usual carefree grin, said unhurriedly:

"As for who's behind me? Brother Youssef, to put it bluntly, you're not worthy to know in your current state."

Chapter 433 The Dinner (4)

It's not that Reiss looks down on Youssef; it's just that even he himself is unworthy. In the whole of Asara, only someone of the old King Asara's caliber would be qualified.

Reis: Hehehe, but there's nothing I can do. They came to me on their own initiative. Little brother? Oh well, little brother it is. I know the principle of being a grandson before being a grandpa. For now, I'll just be their grandson for the time being. Anyway, they're giving me money.

"You mean the power behind you is... very strong? Strong enough to take on Hafk?"

Seeing that Reis had actually said that, Youssef began to wonder in his mind whether the powerful backer behind Reis was really worth it.

"Hafk... Hahahaha, damn it, Brother Youssef, let me put it this way, it's because the people behind me can't directly intervene. Otherwise, Hafk? Hafk is nothing! Didn't you notice before, brother? After that Demulan launched a missile at my place, I didn't take this Mandel brick back, but why didn't that bitch keep bombing me afterward?"

As Reis spoke, he waved for the Asara soldiers carrying boxes to leave. After the gate closed, Reis looked at Yousef with a "proud" expression.

Yusuf: What are you so proud of? Your house was completely destroyed back then. Maybe Demulan took pity on you and didn't give you another one.

"Since that's the case... what do you plan to do? And why did you call me along? What's the point of calling me? Why don't you go find Said?"

Yusef was also somewhat puzzled and asked, "Didn't Reiss work with Said to take down that guy Hamk before? Why wasn't Said included in this operation? As a teammate, shouldn't the brainless Said be more suitable?"

“Said? Sigh! I’ve figured it out. It’s fine to call that guy to help directly, but if I were to ask him to bring people to help me… well, forget it. His second-in-command with the shield is better at leading troops than him.”

When Yusef mentioned Said, Reiss was somewhat speechless. How could he not think about him? But even if he was carefree, he wouldn't dare let Said help him lead troops to resist Demulan.

When Reese went with Said to capture Hamk, he discovered that Said's soldiers were indeed capable, but once on the battlefield, this leader would go straight to the front lines, and the soldiers... were all managed by his deputy.

Therefore, in this operation, Reis immediately ruled out Said. If he ever wanted to carry out any assassination or decapitation operation, Said would be a good candidate.

Said: (Restrained by Abel and the Nameless) Slander! Utter slander! Is he trying to say I'm brainless? He doesn't understand at all! The soldiers I lead don't need his complicated command system. My soldiers are all elites. What's wrong with me leading the charge as their leader? Besides, you saw me jump down that time, didn't you come too?

"Hmm.................Okay, you have a point. If Said could use his brain more, the dam he manages wouldn't still be so poor."

Saeed: I.....................

"Yousef, this time I also want you to lead my men when Demulan launches a major offensive next time. Of course, it would be best if you could transfer some more troops from your side. You guys just need to hold out for me here in Longbow Valley for a while."

Seeing Youssef's expression, Reis knew that things were almost settled, and with a smile, he began to tell Youssef about his "brilliant" ideas.

"I'll take an elite squad from my side and, while their space base is relatively weak, we'll go and sabotage it. We'll also decipher this Mandel Brick and send it to the organization behind me. That way, Demulan will inevitably have to withdraw their troops to defend their home base, and I can give you quite a lot of rewards. How about it? Aren't you very tempted?"

Seeing Yousef's mouth agape and his stunned expression, Reis thought he was shocked by his brilliant idea, so he smiled and happily forked a piece of steak into his mouth.

"Are you dreaming? Are you just saying whatever you dream about? What kind of bullshit is this? Now I know why you thought of burning the mountain; you're just plain stupid!"

However, what greeted Reiss was not Yusef's praise, but his merciless mockery. Reiss was stunned by the insults and stopped chewing his steak. He looked at Yusefs with a blank expression, just like Yusef had before.

"Wha...what's wrong? Isn't this perfect? ​​As long as you guys hold on here, I'll be fine once I'm done on my end. And after that, I can just throw away this Mandel brick and I'll be fine too, right? If they want it, they can just go ask the people behind me for it, okay?"

After hearing this, Youssef slumped back in his chair, looking at Reiss speechlessly. This guy really only had a mouth; he talked a lot of nonsense, saying things like his side could hold out, but why did his side have the confidence to hold out? And where did he get the confidence that he could definitely decipher the Mandel Brick at the space base? What if his side was wiped out?

"I don't know where your confidence comes from. Do you really think that Demulan's offensive will be like the last one? Impossible! Let me tell you, this time you have completely angered Demulan. If it weren't for the international GTI putting pressure on them, Demulan's missiles would be right on your head, you know?"

Yusef thought it was just asking him to provide some manpower or something, but he really didn't expect that this Reis actually wanted him to help him withstand the onslaught of the enraged Demulan. Wasn't this just asking him to die here?

Chapter 434: Cooperation?

"Hey...no, Brother Yusuf, how can you not trust me? You know my strength, right? Let's not even talk about the past. The current me could easily beat the me from a few months ago. What else do you have to worry about?!"

Reis also looked at Yousef, who seemed like a stranger to him, with disbelief. How could he not believe him after only a few months apart?

“It’s not that I don’t trust you, Reese. Why don’t you try talking to Said about this idea and see what he thinks? You’re just messing around. You’re gambling, you know? And this time you’re betting the entire Longbow Valley.”
