Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

Looking at the serious-looking "Zero" in front of her, Claire couldn't help but retort:

"Hey buddy, do you really think anyone can fight their way up from under this Tower of Babel? You're blatantly disrespecting the security personnel and Hafk soldiers who are working so hard to hold this place up!"

"Yeah, I just look down on them. None of them are any good fighters, except for those Black Hawk squad members who are no longer human. They're not even worth mentioning."

Claire: Oh dear, this person has such low emotional intelligence... I don't even know what to say. Compared to them, I feel like my emotional intelligence is actually very high!

“Even if no one can fight their way up from below, we still need to be prepared for everything that needs to be prepared. That’s called attitude. I don’t see any attitude of importance that you place on Xiao Hao right now.”

Upon hearing this, Claire puffed out her cheeks, looked at the tiny [Zero] in front of her, and said:

"Where did you get this twisted logic from? This isn't a good attitude, it's just making trouble out of nothing. Unless Reese leads all his men to attack the Tower of Babel right now, then we might need to worry and prepare. Besides, we still have the Black Hawk team, right? I think you just haven't shaken off your human-machine thinking yet."

[Zero]: I don't care about this or that. You're not Xiao Hao. I can just ignore what you say. It's obvious that you're unreliable. As expected, the only person Xiao Hao can truly rely on is me.

But after Zero said that, Claire obediently brought a small chair and sat in front of the operating room. Anyway, Dr. Rometheus probably wouldn't take too long, and she just needed to keep watch. When Xiao Hao came out, she would definitely hug him and tell him about this humanoid Zero.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . .

"Tsk tsk tsk, it hasn't changed at all. Cammy, do you remember when you were still in high school, your Aunt Daisy brought you here to see your mother? I didn't expect that even places like Longbow Valley would change over the years, but this place hasn't changed at all."

Daisy looked at the Tower of Babel, which hadn't changed at all, and couldn't help but complain. Of course, she was mainly shocked that Rometheus had managed to maintain such a large building so well.

After all, in her opinion, given Rometheus's penchant for abstract and unconventional ideas, his management skills would naturally be lacking. However, upon entering the building, she was surprised to find that the operations and personnel allocation were all very well-organized, which truly broadened Daisy's horizons.

“Ms. Demurean, you’ve arrived! I… I’ll go inform Dr. Rometheus right now.”

After Demulan and his party entered, the person who was greeting them at the door immediately came over with a smile and said to Demulan, who quickly waved his hand and said:

"No need, there's no need to make Rometheus come down, and he probably won't anyway. Just give me the access card, I'll go up myself."

Upon hearing this, the person in charge of greeting them hurriedly ran back and handed the spare elevator access card she had kept to Demulan. After receiving the access card, Demulan nodded to the person in charge of greeting them and then led Daisy and Camille upstairs.

No way! My purpose here is to launch a sneak attack. How could I possibly tell that guy Rometheus? I'd be scared to death if I went up there.

Desmoulin/Daisy: Hehehe, thinking about it now, I'm actually a little excited!

Kami, who was following behind the two, was already blushing and picking at the soles of her shoes. She was about to meet Xiao Hao and was very nervous. After all, she was the one who wanted to lure him to the space base, and Kami felt a little embarrassed.

This scene was naturally witnessed by Demulan and Daisy. Although Demulan didn't say a word, the smile in her eyes was impossible to hide. It had been a long time since she had seen Cammy so shy. Cammy was indeed too inexperienced in this regard. Would she be unable to speak at all when she met Xiao Hao?

"What's wrong, Cammy? Are you so nervous? Do you know your face is as red as a monkey's bottom? Oh, don't worry, with your Aunt Daisy here, Zhang Hao will have to get past me first!"

Faced with Daisy's outrageous remarks, Desmoulins didn't hold back and lightly tapped her on the head as a warning:

"You better behave yourself later, okay? Don't scare Xiao Hao. He's afraid of old witches like you."

"Demulan, are you speaking human language? Me? Old witch? Why don't you look in the mirror and see what you look like?"

"I was bombed. You see, before I was bombed, I definitely looked much kinder than you."

Led by Demulan, the three of them stumbled and twisted their way to the elevator that led directly to Rometheus's office.

"Wow, Demulan, your memory is pretty good now. By the way, what was Rometheus thinking? It's like a maze. You have to walk so far just to get up there. He must have a lot of free time."

Seeing Daisy say this, Desmoulins also said:

"You're overthinking it. Rometheus basically travels by his Blue Eagle helicopter now. And now that Richard has been impeached and there are no more meetings, this guy hasn't left the Tower of Babel for months."

Daisy: 666, this life is much better than hers, a poor corporate slave. All she does is drive different luxury cars to work.

Chapter 519 Lady Demulan?!

"Ding dong!"

Hearing the sound coming from the elevator, Claire, who had been dozing off in her chair, immediately went on alert. After exchanging a glance with Zero, she quietly walked towards the elevator.

Upon hearing the sound of the elevator doors about to open, Claire quietly drew her creed from her waist, her muscles tense.

As the elevator doors opened, Claire pounced towards the elevator like a nimble cheetah. However, once the doors opened and Claire saw who it was, she quickly veered to the side and rolled away.

“Ms. Demouran?! What are you doing here? And who’s behind you?”

Claire was completely dumbfounded when she saw Desmulan in front of her. What was going on? Didn't Dr. Rometheus say yesterday that Ms. Desmulan had gone to the United States to pick up her daughter? How come she's now showing up at the Tower of Babel with two people she doesn't recognize?!

Claire: The intelligence is wrong! I now seriously suspect that there is a spy among us, and that spy is Rometheus.

"Huh? Claire, what are you doing? Is it really necessary to be guarding the elevator door with a knife? Is something... going on inside?"

Upon hearing Desmoulins's words, Claire immediately shook her head vigorously, repeating the same thing over and over:

"No, no, no, I... I was just curious, Ms. Desmuland, why are you back so soon? I thought you were still in the US today!"

Seeing Claire's guilty look, Demulan smiled slightly. It seemed that he had come at the perfect time. This trip had not been in vain; it was a double blessing.

At the same time, Demulan also became somewhat interested. Looking at Claire, who was on the ground thinking about what excuse to make, Demulan deliberately said:

"Claire, what's wrong? You seem a little nervous. Is it really that nerve-wracking to see me here? Or... are you hiding something from me?"

"I...I...I didn't...um...Ms. Demulan, you can ask him. I'm going to the restroom!"

Claire stood up and stammered, unable to utter a single word. How was she supposed to hide the fact that Xiao Hao was currently in the Tower of Babel? It seemed that no matter what excuse she made, it would be useless!

Just then, Claire saw Zero approaching and, as if seeing a savior, grabbed Zero off him and then tried to escape by pretending to pee.

"Alright, you don't need to make any more excuses. Take us to find a place to sit down first. I know what I should and shouldn't know, so you don't need to say anything more."

This caused Clayton, who was about to run to the toilet to hide, to freeze in place. He then walked over with his head down like a wilted blade of grass, leading Demulan and the others into the living room.

"Demulan, you're not welcome here. You can leave with your men."

Just as Demulan and the others sat down, Zero, who was standing next to Claire, coldly ordered them to leave.

[Zero]: Xiao Hao told me before that one should be polite and invite guests in to sit down. Now that they are all seated, it shouldn't be a problem for me to ask them to leave, right?

"Um... are you Xiao Hao?"

At this moment, Kami timidly looked at the cold-faced (actually expressionless) Zero in front of her and asked, "This one seems different from the little boy in the photo. This one looks... a bit cold and heartless."

"Ahem, let me introduce you two. This one on my left is Daisy. She will soon become a member of the Hafk board of directors in charge of the Asara region, which means she will be my boss. According to company rules, you, Zero, are not authorized to dismiss a member of the board of directors."

Demulan first introduced Daisy to the two on the left. Daisy nodded to them with a serious expression. Since they hadn't seen Rometheus yet, she still had to maintain the facade.

Upon hearing that Daisy was someone of such importance, Claire immediately stood up and gave Daisy a very proper bow.

"Daisy...Hello, Board of Directors!"

"Tch, this is Baksh, I'm not under her jurisdiction."

In contrast, Zero remained indifferent, glancing at Daisy twice before looking away. This board meeting again was annoying; he figured he was dealing with Rometheus and Ella anyway, it was none of his business.

Daisy smiled at the impolite little brat in front of her. "Is this kid so sharp-tongued? Interesting. He's probably connected to that Rometheus guy."

"And the person to my right is my daughter, Cammy. Cammy, and this is Claire, who is currently in charge of all security matters at our space base. You two should be in frequent contact due to work."

Claire recognized the little girl to Desmulan's right as Desmulan's daughter and immediately reached out to shake her hand. Camille, seeing this, quickly stood up and shook hands with Claire as well.

"Miss Kami, please bear with me from now on."

"Uh... I will."

After introducing the two people beside her, Desmulan then introduced the foul-mouthed brat in front of Daisy and Cammy:

"This annoying brat is called Zero. He's a weapon of war created by Rometheus. Although I don't know why he keeps calling me 'good boy' all the time, his fighting power will far exceed your imagination."

"But he was trained by that bastard Rometheus after all, and his manners... you just saw for yourselves."

After listening to Demulan's introduction, Camille looked enlightened. No wonder, she thought this unapproachable child in front of her probably wasn't Xiao Hao. After all, Xiao Hao didn't seem like the type of person with that kind of personality.

"Hey, you're Rometheus's eldest son? But you don't look like your father at all."

Chapter 520 Oh! Freshly Cooked Little Hao

Seeing this, Daisy couldn't help but want to give him a shake, but this "Zero" didn't even glance at her, and simply said:

“I’m not his son, and you’re so noisy, just as annoying as Demoulan.”

Daisy: It's confirmed, it's that bastard Rometheus's son. He's so infuriating, just a couple of words from him can send my blood pressure soaring.

But considering that Claire and little Camille were still there, Daisy suppressed her urge to teach the impolite brat a lesson. She decided to save her energy for later, as she still had Rometheus to contend with.

"Alright, let's leave the small talk here. Claire, tell me, is Xiao Hao here right now? Where are Rometheus and the others?"

"Why are you asking this? What are you here for? Why are you bringing up Xiao Hao?"

Before Claire could even self-destruct, Zero stepped forward. What a joke! He knew that Demulan had never had good intentions towards Xiao Hao. This time, he was determined to protect Xiao Hao with his life!

"Hmm... then I'm really not leaving. I want to see where Xiao Hao will hide. Besides, I'm looking for Xiao Hao, why are you so excited, little guy?"

Demulan wasn't in a hurry anymore. Xiao Hao was right there; trying to escape? Unless Rometheus took him away in a Black Hawk helicopter, otherwise…

Claire: Damn it, Dr. Rometheus and Ella's phones are both out here, and now we can't contact them at all. What are we going to do? Now I know what Dr. Rometheus meant by that bad feeling he had earlier.

"Oh dear, the surgery was a great success. It seems my bad feeling earlier... was true."

At that moment, Rometheus's voice came from behind them. When Rometheus saw Demulan and Daisy sitting on the sofa, the smile that had been on his face disappeared immediately. In the next second, Rometheus thought of turning around and leaving.

"Stand still! I'm your patient! How can you, as the attending physician, try to run away when you see me, your patient?"

Just as Rometheus was thinking of turning back to tell Zhang Hao to run away, Demulan stood up and stopped him, then silently drew out Polaris and began to play with it.

Upon hearing the crisp sound of Polaris popping out, Rometheus immediately turned around obediently, chuckling as he walked over. There was nothing he could do; Demulan always liked to flaunt her broken knife in front of him, a defenseless man.

Rometheus: Waaaaah, I'm so sorry, Xiao Hao! It's your Uncle Rometheus who's useless! Seeing Demulan's menacing approach today, even Uncle Rometheus can't protect you anymore! ???

"Aunt Demurean?"

The moment Rometheus turned around, Zhang Hao's voice came from behind. Upon hearing this, Demulan immediately pulled Cammy, who was still sitting to the side, up.

"Oh dear, Xiao Hao, did you just come out of the operating room? Is something wrong with you?"

At this moment, Demulan also saw the operating room behind Zhang Hao and the others, and he had to admit, he really missed it.

"Ah... hello, my name is Kami, you must be Xiao Hao!"

As for Kami, after saying those words, she immediately covered her face and shrank back.

Kami: So cute! She's even cuter than in the photos! But I'm so shy. I'm not even an adult yet. Am I being a little weird?

"Wow! You're so cute! You must be Xiao Hao, right? Great, you passed! Come on, let Auntie take a good look at you!"

Daisy, who saw Zhang Hao, jumped up from the sofa and walked over, passing through Rometheus and Ella to stand in front of Zhang Hao and carefully examine him up close.
