Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

Demulan had initially thought that he would go to the Tower of Babel in a few days to find Rometheus and see if he could run into Xiao Hao, but after the thought flashed through his mind, Demulan immediately rejected it. In that case, it was very likely... probably certain that Rometheus and this [Zero] would ruin it.

Let's not even talk about Rometheus for now. If I were to say that I'm going to the Tower of Babel someday, this little thing in front of me would probably tell Xiao Hao my whereabouts in the next second. How would I possibly be able to run into Xiao Hao then?

Demulan: Luckily I reacted quickly, otherwise my plan would have been completely ruined.

After listening to Demulan's words, Zero simply nodded. Rometheus had previously told him that he would need to replace Demulan's brain with a new Relink brain-computer interface. Since Demulan said this, Zero naturally assumed that Demulan would simply go to the Tower of Babel to find Rometheus to replace the Relink brain-computer interface.

Zero then turned around and went straight to the Blue Eagle helicopter. After saying goodbye to Black Hawk, he took the helicopter back to Bakshi.

"Damn it, I'm finally back! What the hell are you bunch of idiots still standing here for? Don't you know how to get me cigars and liquor? You've raised a bunch of useless trash!"

As the plane began its descent, Reis, upon seeing the familiar surroundings, excitedly opened the cabin door and jumped from the sky. Then, looking at the two dumbfounded Asara soldiers in front of him, Reis cursed them with a displeased expression.

After being scolded by Reis, the two Asara soldiers ran to get him ice-cold beer and his favorite cigar. After finishing the beer and lighting the cigar, Reis couldn't help but let out a satisfied sigh.

"Damn it, thank goodness I'm back alive. Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to enjoy these things. Hey! Where is that Yousef? Take me to see him."

After Patton disembarked from the plane, Reese inquired about Youssef's whereabouts. Upon learning that Youssef was holding a meeting in his study, Reese led Patton directly to his study.

"Damn it, what's the point of having a meeting? If you ask me, meetings are the most meaningless thing. When I was working for him, he would hold meetings every day for no reason, spouting useless nonsense that almost made me fall asleep."

On the way to the study, Reis kept complaining. This Yusef always liked to do useless things. Damn it, this meeting was a waste of time and life, and nothing else.

"Hey! Yusuf, I'm fucking back. Thanks for coming to help me organize the defenses this time. Come on, Patton, let's load a truckload of gold for our brother Yusuf later."

However, once he arrived at the study, Reese immediately changed his tune, smilingly instructing Barton to prepare a thank-you gift, while simultaneously walking towards Youssef.

"You're back? How did it go? Did you manage to decipher that Mandel Brick?"

Seeing that Reis had returned unharmed, Youssef quickly asked, "Since Reis has returned, then Mandel Brick should have returned as well, right?"

After hearing this, Reese chuckled and patted his chest, saying with a smile:

"Absolutely! You don't even know who I am, Brother Yousef! Deciphering a Mandel Brick is a piece of cake for me."

Upon hearing this news, Youssef immediately stood up excitedly and said:

"Then hurry up and show it to me. I've never seen what a deciphered Mandel Brick looks like."

At this moment, Reis chuckled, scratched his head, and looked at Youssef somewhat awkwardly, saying:

"Hahaha, well... I did manage to decipher it, but... I didn't bring it out."

Yusuf noticed Reis's sudden change of demeanor and a bad feeling rose in his heart. After Reis finished speaking, Yusuf looked at him speechlessly. What did this mean? He had deciphered the Mandel Brick, but failed to bring it out?

"Hey, Yusuf, don't look at me like that. Do you think I didn't want to bring this team out? I really wanted to, but right after I deciphered this Mandel Brick, I was ambushed by those bastards from GTI. Of the team I brought, only Barton and I are left!"

Youssef was still wondering if Demoulan had flown back to the spaceport and intercepted Reiss, but after hearing Reiss's explanation, Youssef couldn't help but frown and ask:

“GTI? Why would they go to the space base to ambush you? Did you two have some kind of conflict before? In my memory, they should have always wanted to maintain a balance between us and the Hafk Group.”

Upon hearing this, Reese was surprised that Youssef didn't seem to dislike the GTI at all. That was unacceptable! He'd almost been killed by those bastards, and he had a long-standing grudge against them. Reese immediately adopted an excited demeanor and said to Youssef:

"A contradiction? That's blatant bullying! I'm such an honest guy, and those bastards took advantage of my honesty to do it on purpose. Damn it, those bastards almost made me die! If Patton hadn't come to my rescue in time, I would have been dead today."

Upon hearing this, Youssef thought, "Even Reis was almost left there? But... how dare you say you're honest, Reis?"

Although Reiss said he had no grudge against GTI, how could Yusef believe him so easily? But he still had to put on an act and comforted Reiss.

Chapter 462 You still want revenge?

"Okay, okay, I know it was those people from GTI who deliberately messed with you. Don't get so worked up. After all, I haven't had much contact with those people from GTI before. They were actually quite friendly to us, Asara."

After Yusef finished speaking, he couldn't help but conclude that Reis must have somehow provoked the GTI members. A force that was supposed to maintain peace had shown such obvious bias this time, and Reis was definitely involved.

"Yeah, yeah, damn it, once I recover a bit, I have to go find those bastards and cause them trouble. Damn it, I almost got killed by those bastards this time. Luckily I ran fast, otherwise I would have lost my life, and they would probably have taken the Mandel brick."

Faced with Reis's dangerous desire for revenge, Youssef quickly advised him, "What's wrong with this guy's head? You could have just taken some men to mess with the Hafk Group, how could you dare to provoke GTI? Don't you know that they have the United Nations behind them?"

"Ries, I have to say something to you. In my opinion, your idea of ​​seeking revenge against GTI is incredibly foolish. Even if the power behind you is strong enough to rival a country, going up against the United Nations is just asking for trouble."

Reis scoffed at Yusef's words. So what if he wiped out all these people? It was clearly those bastards who repeatedly came to my Longbow Valley to cause trouble and even tried to kill me.

Barton: Boss Reese, we seem to have forgotten... I think we were the ones who launched the sneak attack first, right? It was around that time, and after I survived that operation, the road became much wider!

Yusef immediately recognized that Reiss hadn't listened to him and shook his head helplessly. This guy was a troublemaker who had already caused him a lot of trouble before he even became the leader of Longbow Valley.

Moreover, it seems this guy has now latched onto a rather powerful patron. Yusef can only admit that he has completely lost control of Reiss, especially since Reiss hasn't yet brought out the deciphered Mandel Brick.

Although he didn't know if this would affect his relationship with his superior, Yusef, who had been the leader for so long, had already begun to consider whether he should give up on Reis, based on his intuition.

In his opinion, this guy was definitely going to seek revenge on the GTI people. Reis had a powerful backer, but Yusef didn't. Besides, he didn't have any conflicts with the GTI people. As it stands, only this reckless Reis has a grudge against GTI!

Yusuf: Cut ties. I really need to think carefully about whether I need to cut ties with that idiot Reis when I get back. My gut feeling tells me that if I continue to clean up Reis's messes, it won't end well.

"Alright, now that you and your subordinate are back, I'll head back first. I can't leave my place unattended forever."

In response, Youssef suggested that he lead his team back first. Since Reis had returned anyway, and as for Demulan... they probably wouldn't immediately launch another attack. It's likely that there would be some skirmishes between the two sides, similar to before... Of course, it could also become more intense.

"Ah, alright, alright, Patton! Come see Brother Youssef off. I'm going to take a shower first; I got covered in dust from where I was."

Reis nodded, and after barking for Barton to escort the person to safety, he turned and went back to his room. He was feeling exhausted. That white-haired brat... didn't seem to have used his full strength yet. Reis had already felt the threat from him when they fought before.

The little girl on the other side was quite good, and she handled things with ease. However, when facing that brat, she felt the pressure.

Reis: My brain told me that I should have dealt with that brat first, but my combat instincts told me that I couldn't possibly have dealt with him in one go, and that I might have even been dealt with by him.

In his several encounters with Zero, Reis discovered that the white-haired brat wasn't using his full strength at all. Although Reis wasn't using his full strength either, the tricky techniques Zero displayed in the fight were comparable to Reis's own strength, which made Reis feel a growing sense of threat.

"Damn it, what happened to that weakling white-haired guy? Why can't we get him back? Isn't this blatant cheating? Even I, the strongest man in Asara, can't handle him. He's a real monster!"

After filling the tub with water and getting into the bathtub, Reese couldn't help but sigh comfortably. It seemed he had really been indulging himself lately. That brat before could be beaten to a pulp by his punch, but this time he hadn't even let him use his full strength.

Zhang Hao: No way, you're implying I'm weak, aren't you? You just wait, you black gorilla. Next time, I'll just blow your thing up. I'll show you what it means to not mess with a sniper. And I'll make Uncle Deep Blue a few more drinks to bring him back to his prime, so you can see what the strongest man is all about!

"Hmm... Patton! You bastard, are you back yet? Grab a few women for me, wash them clean, and put them on my bed for me to wait on! Why worry about all that now? I finally managed to get back, so let me enjoy life first. I was about to die anyway, so I'll bring a couple of girls to relieve my pent-up frustration."

Barton, who had just returned from escorting Youssef, sighed helplessly after hearing Reis's request and then turned around to arrange women for Reis. He was really fed up with being the steward and would definitely ask Lord Reis to find someone else to help him in the future.

Patton: I am the true chosen one!

Chapter 463 European and American Playing Style

"What?! Xiao Hao, even with all of you mobilized, you still couldn't take down that Reis? In the end, all Reis did was throw away the Mandel brick and run away?"

After hearing Zhang Hao recount the battle's progress, Said was surprised and stood up from his seat, a move that caused Abel and Sofia to turn and look at him.

"Yeah, there was no other way. Nobody expected that Reis would still have a soldier left down there who wasn't thrown out by that guy Reis to shield him from bullets. Originally, Reis wouldn't have been able to escape at all this time!"

After Zero returned to Babel, he had a video call with Zhang Hao and explained the situation in detail. Zhang Hao was stunned. According to Xiaowen, Reis went crazy and threw all his men out to block bullets so he could escape before they could react.

However, unexpectedly, there was one soldier among these Asara soldiers who slipped through the net, which is why Claire was ambushed. It was also to protect Claire that Zero released that bastard Reis. Otherwise, it would have been a huge loss for Hafk to go through so much trouble to barely snatch back the Mandel brick.

"I think there will definitely be no peace in Longbow Valley from now on. I don't believe the Hafk Group won't be causing trouble for them every day."

After hearing the whole story, Said began to seriously consider it. Could it be that Reese's mindless, Western-style playing style was really that effective? What about his own Chinese-style playing style, which required careful consideration?

Said: Hmm.........................How about I try this Western style of play next time? It seems pretty good. If I end up falling out with Reese, I'll just have a match with him to see whose Western style is stronger!

"Well, in that case, I think I shouldn't fall out with Reis in the short term. After all, every time this guy survives, he seems to evolve and become stronger. Although there's no scientific basis for that, Xiao Hao, you have to believe me, Reis is definitely not normal. There's something very strange about him!"

After hearing what Said said, Sophia gave him a distrustful look. You yourself said there was no scientific basis for this, so how can you expect Xiao Hao to believe it? But to Sophia's surprise, Zhang Hao completely agreed with Said's statement.

Sofia: This.....................is this what the boys used to talk about as a bond all the time? Do they really believe that? Looking at it this way, it seems like I'm the one who's acting strangely.

“That’s true. You know, when I shot Reis in the butt before, he would scream and drag his leg away. But according to the latest news from Demulan, Reis is now completely unharmed after being shot by a pistol. I’m starting to wonder if this guy is even human.”

Said couldn't help but think back to the time when he and Reis were under Yousef's command. Back then, they fought each other to a standstill. But as the fight went on, Said sensed something was wrong. Reis would become even more troublesome after each fight with him.

Said initially thought that Reese had started learning new techniques, but after some time, Said realized that things were not as he thought at all. The guy had simply become stronger and more durable.

In their final encounter, Said was completely unable to defeat Reis. This guy was indeed like a monster, leading Asara's soldiers to seize Longbow Valley and Dam Zero from the Hafk Group. Later, he entrusted Dam Zero to Said's management.

"It's alright, Uncle Said. War is not a matter for one person alone. Even if one person has great abilities, they are limited. Let's focus on developing the dam as soon as possible. After all, we don't have the financial resources of Reis."

Zhang Hao comforted him, saying that this Reis was indeed strange. He himself was starting to suspect that Reis might also have a system, otherwise how could he always escape death and become stronger?

Reis: No, no, no, you weakling with white hair, I don't need any system. I'll say it again: if you're no good, don't blame the road for being uneven. I'm Asara's strongest man!

“Uncle Said, you’d better start stockpiling more food. I’ve heard that Hafk has developed a weather weapon. If it’s used on your side, things like the railway tracks will be destroyed. It won’t be so easy to maintain a stable food supply like we have now.”

At this moment, Zhang Hao suddenly remembered the message Rometheus had told him when he was still in the Tower of Babel. Of course, Rometheus also told the two kids to be careful when they went out on missions, and not to underestimate the power of the weather weapon newly developed by the Hafk Group.

According to Rometheus's description, this weather weapon could easily destroy enemy defenses. If Demulan were to take this weather weapon to cause trouble for Reiss...

Zhang Hao: Hey, I really don't believe it, Reese is still alive.

Demulan: Okay, Hao! That's enough, really enough. Don't say things like that anymore. My heart trembles when I hear these words. If you keep talking to that guy Reis, I really feel like Reis is immortal!

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Hao went downstairs and, seeing Shen Lan cooking in the kitchen, casually asked:

"Uncle Deep Blue, now that we have everything ready, when are we going to Tide Prison to find Prince Asara?"

Chapter 464 Should I stay here?

Zhang Hao was filled with curiosity about the Tidal Prison that Claire had described as incredibly terrifying, since he had never been inside it himself. As for the situations Claire had described to him that could drive an optimistic person crazy, Zhang Hao could only say that he completely understood.

Zhang Hao: If I put myself in Claire's shoes, it really does seem quite hopeless. Life without computer games... it's practically like being in hell!

After hearing what Zhang Hao said, Shen Lan thought for a while and then said:

"Well... according to procedure, I need to report to my superiors before I start considering this matter. What's wrong? Are you curious about this Tidal Prison or Prince Asara?"

Shen Lan asked with some curiosity, it seemed that Xiao Hao hadn't come to her so proactively to inquire about the mission in a long time. He had just gotten the access card back and couldn't wait to ask her about the next steps.

"Hehehe, it's nothing. I just heard some things about the Tide Prison from Claire. It's really boring and depressing inside for Claire and me. I was just a little curious."

After listening, Shen Lan reached out and ruffled Zhang Hao's hair, then shook his head and said to Zhang Hao:

"Is that so? No wonder you were so curious, Xiao Hao. But you might be disappointed this time, Xiao Hao. You're not on the list of those going to the prison this time."

After hearing Shen Lan's words, Zhang Hao looked at her in disbelief. What did this mean? Was he going to sit at the same table as Sister Zoya?

"Alright, Xiao Hao, stop looking at me like that. There's nothing I can do about it. You have to understand me. Prison is different from other places. You know, even though the space base is dangerous, Demulan still knows you. Besides, even though those Hafk soldiers have always disliked us, they won't harm your life if they see us GTI."

Shen Lan quickly explained to Zhang Hao that he felt a pang of pity for Xiao Hao looking at him with such pitiful eyes, and he almost gave in. However, when he thought about the dangers inside the Tide Prison, Shen Lan could only leave Zhang Hao, Zoya, and Mai Xiaowen in the Special Operations Department.

Mai Xiaowen: Huh? ?? Isn't this something I'm supposed to do too? Why am I not even included in this indoor operation?
