Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"Oh, I see. Anyway, I heard from Xiao Hao that Reis was bullied and even coughed up blood. As his good older sister, I have to stand up for Xiao Hao!"

"What?! Xiao Hao was beaten to the point of vomiting blood by that bastard Reis?"

Claire had barely mentioned it when Demulan appeared on her face, his expression dark and menacing. This startled Claire, who then weakly nodded.

"Yes...yes, what's wrong, Ms. Desmulan?"

Mary (eating melon seeds): What's wrong? Hehehe, I can only say that Reis's ass is going to suffer again. Maybe Ms. Demulan will even try to capture Reis alive this time and send someone to test just how thick Reis's ass really is?

"Damn it, Reis, he actually... actually beat my precious son-in-law, oh no, my precious Xiao Hao, until he vomited blood? Looks like this time, I'll be aiming for his head. I think that's the only way to avenge Xiao Hao."

Still asleep, Reis: (shudders) Hmm? Why does my Reis feel a little cold? Damn, looks like I need to go to the bathroom, I'm a bit bursting.

Chapter 443 Xiao Li: You remembered me?

"Huh?! Although...but...I can only say well done, Ms. Demulan! That Reis is truly a bastard, he even dared to lay a hand on such a cute child as Xiao Hao, he's simply inhuman!"

Mary remained expressionless as she ate her melon on the sidelines, chuckling to herself. She thought to herself, "If I have nothing else to do later, I'll tell Ella about this. That girl is really bored; she's always sharing gossip with me. Lately, she's been sharing news about their [Zero] every day."

After hearing Demulan's "great" idea, Claire, after a brief moment of thought, wholeheartedly agreed. Indeed, dealing with a bastard like Reese required violence. Xiao Hao was already spitting blood; frankly, hitting his head was too lenient.

Zhang Hao: Exactly, exactly. I wanted to blow his head off before, but I didn't expect it to be too far away, and I hit his butt instead. It seems that after that, Reese started his butt evolution journey.

"Huh? Who sent me a message?"

Just then, Claire's phone vibrated in her pocket. She immediately took it out and glanced at the message. After reading it, she became excited and showed the message to Desmulan, saying excitedly:

"Ms. Demurean! Great news! My colleague Xiao Li from the prison just told me that the warden will be leading the team back tomorrow. So... does that mean I can go back and pack my things after this mission is over?"

Right after saying that, Claire belatedly realized that she hadn't been able to talk to Rometheus about Little Lee when she went to the Tower of Babel. Now, looking at Ms. Demulan in front of her, Claire suddenly had an idea.

Claire: Yeah, although I didn't tell Dr. Rometheus, I could talk to Ms. Demulan. After all, she's in charge of the prison. Talking to her would allow me to skip the step of reporting to Dr. Rometheus, right? Besides, it's such a waste for that guy Li to stay in prison all this time. He's smarter than me. How can he stay in that place forever?

Claire immediately told Demulan about Li, believing that Li's work experience was more than enough to handle the job at the space base.

"What? Something like that actually happened inside the Tower of Babel? Mary, haven't you been in contact with Rometheus's secretary all along? Did you know about this kind of thing happening on his end?"

Mary shook her head innocently. How could she possibly know? Besides... Mary seriously doubted that Ella herself knew anything about it, because while Dr. Rometheus was indeed very capable in research and development, his management skills...

Mary: I didn't say anything, I just had nothing to say about it, hehe.

"Hmph, that guy Rometheus used to brag to me every day about how amazing his management skills were. Now it seems that his people are really quite audacious. They actually used their power to put an innocent person on the list to be sent to the Tide Prison."

Rometheus: You're blaming me again. Didn't I find out before that big idiot Robert turned my security captain against me? Besides, there's always something wrong with where you are. It's not like this kind of thing doesn't happen in the space base you manage.

"Alright, I understand. Once I've verified the truth of this matter, I'll compensate that Xiao Li. Claire, you did a great job."

Claire: Hehe, hehe, I got praised by Ms. Demulan, hehehe. I'm not as naive as Luna said.

"Report, Director Demulan, a white-haired boy has arrived at the entrance of the space base. He looks exactly like the person our Hafk Group wanted before, and says he's here to cause trouble for Reis."

At that moment, the gatekeeper's voice came through Demulan's walkie-talkie. Upon hearing this, Claire and Mary were both stunned. Had this "Zero" come to their space base? That didn't make sense. Given Rometheus's protective nature, how could he possibly let his precious son out?

"Let's let him in first... no, send someone from your side to bring him to my office."

Both women, sharing the same doubt, immediately turned their gazes to Claire, their eyes filled with confusion. However, the somewhat naive Claire admitted she couldn't understand the look at all. Mary then helplessly asked Claire what the "zero" meant.

Claire finally understood what the two had meant by their previous glances, and quickly explained what the "zero" meant (incomplete version).

"What? This [Zero] was actually retrieved by Xiao Hao for that Rometheus? Hiss~~~ Is there some kind of magic to the Tower of Babel? Why have I never seen Xiao Hao at the space base, but I've seen traces of him in several other places!"

Demulan couldn't help but start to doubt himself. Was it just that Rometheus, that fool, was lucky? Not only did he befriend Xiao Hao before him, but Xiao Hao even helped him find his eldest son.

Thinking back on my own experience, I made a fool of myself the first time I met Xiao Hao. Of course, Said was largely to blame for that. From that moment on, Xiao Hao seemed to be a little afraid of me.

Demulan: That's right, it's all Said and Reis's fault. It's just that the terrain in Reis's Longbow Valley is bad, which made me not leave a good impression on Xiao Hao. Otherwise, I would have already tricked Xiao Hao into coming to our space base.

Chapter 444 Demon Orb [Zero]

Just as Demulan was still reflecting on whether he was just unlucky, Zero, who was following behind the doorman, arrived at the door of Demulan's office. After the doorman knocked on the door and asked if he wanted to bring someone in, Demulan immediately told him to bring in Rometheus's son.

When Zero walked in, Mary, who had never seen Zhang Hao in person before, was immediately shocked by Zero's "cold-faced" handsome appearance. However, just as she was about to tell Claire and Ms. Demulan about her surprise, she found that the other two were still calm and composed.

Mary: Actually, I can understand why Ms. Desmulan is so calm, after all, she is Ms. Desmulan, but... but why is Claire also acting so calm now? What's going on? Something just doesn't seem right. Given Claire's usual personality, she should be yelling and rushing over right now.

Claire: Hmm... Actually, Mary, you're not wrong. After all, I do seem to have rushed over while yelling, but can you believe it? This seemingly harmless little boy in front of you just threw me away like trash. Waaah, so ungentlemanly! If it were Xiao Hao, he definitely wouldn't have treated me like that.

"You're the Zero that Rometheus created? You do look... not as cute as Xiao Hao, but of course you don't need to feel inferior. After all, in my opinion, no little guy can compare to my Xiao Hao. If you have seven-tenths of his looks, you can already be called a beauty."

To Mary's astonishment, Desmulan spoke these words in a very cold manner, which only fueled Mary's curiosity. Just how amazing was Xiao Hao, whom she had only seen in photos before, that Ms. Desmulan would say such a thing?

Mary: Really? The difference between the photo and the person is too big. To me, the little boy in that photo and this guy called "Zero" look pretty much the same, right? But after hearing what Ms. Desmulan said, it seems there's quite a difference!

"So you're Demulan? Here's a piece of advice: stop trying to take advantage of Xiao Hao. You scared him half to death, you know? Rometheus told me that you're definitely up to no good if you want to lure Xiao Hao to your space base."

However, what Zero said next startled Mary once again. This doll is really fierce! You have to know that in front of him is the Space War God of the Asara region! The number one person after the board of directors! How come there is not a trace of emotion in Zero?

[Zero]: Hehe, all I can say is that, apart from Xiao Hao making me happy and that Rometheus guy making me feel fear, I really don't have any other emotions.

After hearing Zero's "treasonous" words, Demulan wasn't angry. However, in her heart, she couldn't help but want to rush into the Tower of Babel and give that bastard Rometheus a good beating with an electric cannon. He must have said all this to Zero. How dare he slander her in front of such a young child! He was really... too despicable!

"Alright, these are not things for a child like you to worry about. Also, next time, listen less to what Rometheus says to you. That guy teaches children bad things every day. I'll teach him a lesson when the time comes."

Demulan didn't give much thought to the warning from "Zero." In her view, it was undoubtedly Rometheus's usual practice of framing and smearing her in front of "Zero." What would a child know about such things? This must be Rometheus's doing.

"Speaking of which, how could Rometheus bear to release you? This is our first meeting, isn't it? Call me Aunt Demulan, and I'll take you to pick out a fine weapon so you can unleash your full power. What do you say?"

If Zhang Hao were here, he'd probably shamelessly run up and call her "Auntie" right away. But our [Zero] wouldn't be as shameless as Xiao Hao. She immediately rejected Demulan's idea with a cold face, saying:

"No need. Besides, you look so old, how dare you ask me to call you 'Auntie'? No wonder you can get along so well with Rometheus."

These words reached Demulan's ears and immediately triggered a critical hit with armor penetration. He couldn't help but clench his fist. This little guy... he really is worthy of being Rometheus's eldest son. He has completely inherited that foul mouth. He had previously said that he looked like his own Xiao Hao and that he should be a little gentler with him.

But now it seems that this little guy also needs to be taught a lesson. However, at this moment, Demulan also remembered that this little guy seemed to have come to help, so he could only bear with it for a while. After all, it was completely unnecessary to hurt him here.

Demulan: Just you wait, little guy, I've got my eye on you. When I get to the Tower of Babel, I'll take care of you and that Rometheus guy together.

"Alright, I understand. Mary, you should go and make arrangements for this [Zero] first. Hurry up, don't neglect him. Claire, you go with him too. Oh, let me have some peace and quiet. Right, right, I need to think about what tasks to assign him tomorrow. You guys take him away quickly."

Demulan: This is a demon pill! No wonder it was created by the great demon Rometheus. Just two simple sentences have made my blood pressure soar. Oh, I can't take it! The main problem is that I can't touch it right now. Hold on, Demulan, you need to learn self-control.

After Mary and Claire brought Zero out of the office, Demulan leaned back in his chair for a while to calm himself down. Then, he turned on his computer again and began to think about what surprises Zero might bring to his side.

Chapter 445 Reis: It's my turn to perform.

"Boss Reis... there seems to be some activity at the space base!"

After hearing Patton's words, Reese immediately jumped up, looked at Patton who was looking into the distance through binoculars, and asked in surprise:

"Damn it, Patton, you didn't see wrong, did you? Damn, this Demulan is really patient. If they don't make a move today, I'm really going to send some supplies over to us."

Barton: Huh? So even if Demulan doesn't launch an attack, we still can't get back? Is this the amazing tactic Lord Reis promised me? So we're just going to wait here?

Seeing this, Patton quickly handed the binoculars to Reis. The tanks were making such a loud noise. If they weren't going to Longbow Valley, were they going to their side for an exercise?

"Hmm... Hehe, finally we've made our move. Barton, hurry up and send a message to Youssef, tell him to get ready. When they meet, that's when I'll strike."

Reis, through his binoculars, spotted the tanks and troops rolling out one after another. He immediately instructed Patton to send a message to Youssef. Just then, a huge helicopter emerged from the space base, causing Reis to stare in disbelief.

"Damn it, what is this thing again? It's bigger than my most advanced attack helicopter. Where did that idiot Demulan get this from? Patton, tell Yusef over there to pay special attention to Hafk's helicopters, okay? Don't let them get blown up."

Barton immediately contacted Youssef, who had arrived at Longbow Valley, and told him to start preparing. You should know that one of the characteristics of Demulan's troops is that their offensive is extremely fierce. If they cannot withstand her offensive, they will be defeated in an instant.

At the same time, he also informed Yusuf of the situation regarding the Blue Eagle helicopter, which successfully made Yusuf, who was stationed in Longbow Valley, put on a mask of pain.

Yusuf: Damn it, money is hard to earn, and shit is hard to swallow. I must have done something terrible in my past life to end up with such a useless piece of trash as Reis. Not only do I have to guard his house, but now he's making things even more difficult for me.

But what's the use of complaining here now? Instead of cursing that shameless guy Reis, he should think about how to solve the current problem. At the same time, when Youssef heard about the huge helicopter from Patton, he also thought of the armed helicopter from Baksh.

Yusuf: Don't ask me how I know. If you had two squads blown up, you definitely wouldn't forget it either. (;'??Д??`)

"Demulan has begun their operation. You all need to hurry and organize your squads. According to Reis's description, Demulan's forces are quite formidable this time, but we must hold on! For Longbow Valley! For Asara!"

"For Asara!"

Upon hearing this, the captains of the various squads below raised their hands and shouted that whatever their previous reasons or prejudices against Reis, this brute, had to be put aside now. If they couldn't hold out in this battle, the balance between Asara and Hafk over the years would be broken.

Just as Yousef had finished arranging his soldiers, the sentry on the watchtower shouted to them:

"They're here! They're here! Demulan and her tanks and planes are all heading towards us."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately went on high alert, and then the planes and tanks from Longbow Valley arrived at the front line, awaiting the start of the great battle.

Yusef was still thinking about whether he should go up and talk to Demulan first, so as to buy some time for Reis to act quickly.

But just as Youssef was about to walk forward, the incoming shells successfully dissuaded him from this dangerous plan.

Yusuf: Yeah, was I just being stupid? Right now, Demulan is probably only thinking about killing Reiss and taking Longbow Valley in one fell swoop.

Reflecting on his own idiotic actions just now, Yusuf couldn't help but feel a little panicked. Could it be... that this Longbow Valley possessed some kind of special magic that was causing the leaders who stayed here to become less intelligent?

Reese: Fuck you, you're just being stupid, and what kind of lame excuse are you trying to give me? I have to tell you, I'm 100 times smarter than you!

As Demulan launched an attack on their side, the two forces clashed once again on the open ground in front of them.

It wasn't just Youssef who was surprised; Demulan, who was fighting him again, also immediately noticed something was wrong. There were many more soldiers in front of him, even more than before.

But is that really possible? Unless......................

Demulan immediately picked up his AWM and began searching for a guy with a red mask in the opposing team.

Said: What the hell, you actually... I'm telling you, Demulan, you're questioning the bond between me and Xiao Hao! Just wait and see if I don't tell Xiao Hao about you.

However, after Demulan searched the area, he did not find Said, but he did manage to spot Asara's tyrant, Yusuf, in the crowd.

"Yousef? What's he doing in Longbow Valley? And where is Reiss now? I've searched everywhere and can't find him. And... I have a bad feeling about this. No, speed is of the essence. Forget why Yousef is here, everyone attack! Take down the enemy as quickly as possible!"

Demulan suppressed her doubts. Her intuition told her that since Reis hadn't shown himself, he must be hiding something in some dark corner. But the most important thing now was to take over Longbow Valley in the shortest amount of time.

Chapter 446 Where is Reis?

Having figured this out, Demulan immediately aimed his crosshairs at Yousef, whom he had seen earlier. It seemed that this seasoned veteran of the battlefield was taking over. In that case, all he had to do was deal with Yousef, and the matter would be over.

But when Demulan came to her senses and began searching for Yousef, she suddenly realized that Yousef had disappeared from her sight. After another round of searching, Demulan still could not find any trace of Yousef.

"Damn it, I should have attacked him as soon as I saw him. Now I'm in trouble."

Demulan was surprised that in just a moment of distraction, Yusef had already disappeared from his sight. Moreover, watching the Asara soldiers relentlessly advancing, Demulan began to feel a bit irritated.

Seeing that the situation, which should have been one-sided, was gradually turning into a tug-of-war, Demulan couldn't wait any longer. He immediately went to the back and found Zero and Claire, saying:
