The three women from the Secret Service: If you hadn't dragged your daughter all the way here, we would have believed you. It's just a pity that you, Desmoulins with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, really don't act at all.

Seeing this, Sayed put Zhang Hao down, then rubbed Zhang Hao's head and said:

“That’s true. The main problem is that Demulan has never had a good reputation in Asara. Let’s go up first. Sofia has already organized all the information on our side.”

After saying that, the group followed Said upstairs to the manager's office in the east wing.

"Dragon, Red Wolf, you guys... if you want to hear it, come in. If you have no objections, you can act as guards outside."

Shen Lan watched as Wei Long started yawning as soon as he entered the office, and she covered her head, feeling guilty.

Deep Blue: Sigh, I forgot that the current Dragon seems to be about the same level as Roy. He can fight, but there's no fight to be had this time. I should have brought Luna with me. Luna is very capable when it comes to making meeting minutes.

"I'm fine, Deep Blue. Let Dragon guard outside. I'll listen in from inside so there won't be any mistakes when we take action."

In contrast to Wei Long, who was already cheering and running off to harass Wuming and spar with him, Red Wolf said he would stay inside and listen to what kind of cooperation the two sides would have next.

"Okay, then let Weilong stay outside and guard the door by himself. Let's go in."

Deep Blue nodded in satisfaction. As expected of the action team leader he had chosen earlier, even though Red Wolf was clearly hanging out with Roy, he hadn't been influenced by him. He'd bring Red Wolf again next time. As for Dragon...

Deep Blue: Let all these young people go to the Special Operations Department and wait for news. Next time, let's replace Dragon with Luna.

After everyone entered the conference room, Sophia, seeing Deep Blue and Red Wolf, quickly stood up, shook hands with them, and then turned on the laptop that was placed to the side:

"We also considered the purpose of Yusuf's instructions to us this time, and we believe that the most likely reason is that Yusuf wants Prince Asara—Raven—who is imprisoned in the Tide Prison."

"Huh? Doesn't that directly overlap with our mission objective? Speaking of which, if I remember correctly, I seem to have heard of the person who overthrew Asara's original royal family, Yusef, right? Why is he suddenly trying to save this Prince Asara now?"

Unaware of what would happen next, Zhang Hao began to struggle to understand the situation. What was the point of Youssef's actions? Was it a sudden change of heart? Or did Prince Asara possess some unique quality?

"Well, did you directly ask Yusuf why he made you do this, Said?"

Deep Blue nodded after hearing this, then turned to look at Said, who in turn said:

"Of course I asked. I asked him why right when he gave me this task, but he didn't answer directly. He just said that I should find out the way and draw the route for him, and then it would be none of my business."

"Your Majesty, Yousef wants to become king."

After listening to Said's words, Deep Blue spoke without hesitation, and everyone present showed surprise. Abel even stepped forward and asked:

"You're not mistaken, are you? Our rebel leader... Lord Yusef, who led us to overthrow the Asara royal family, wants to become king? That... that goes against what we've always been doing!"

Unlike Abel, who was somewhat agitated, Saeed and Sofia fell silent. After a moment's thought, Saeed looked up at the deep blue figure before him and asked earnestly:

“Deep Blue, when you said that, what evidence do you have to prove it? It’s not that I suspect you’re talking nonsense, it’s just that… so far, what Yousef has led us to do really doesn’t quite match what you’re talking about about becoming king.”

"I understand! Let me explain, Uncle Deep Blue, please listen to my analysis and see if there are any problems!"

At this moment, Zhang Hao, who had finished processing this information, slammed his hand on the table and stood up, beginning to analyze it with Said:

“Uncle Said, I remember you told us before that Reese also wanted to attack Tidal Prison, right?”

"Yes, that's right, he even wanted to ask me for some people."

"Then that's it. It's probably because Reiss wanted to take Prince Asara away from the Tide Prison, which made Yusef aware of it. And Asara, if he wants to revive the royal family and become the new king again, he naturally needs the support of those former royal family members, right?"

Hearing Zhang Hao say this, Sophia's tightly furrowed brows began to relax, while Said still looked puzzled and pressed for an answer:

“Yes…that makes sense, but is it possible that Youssef wants to take Prince Asara back and protect him before Reiss does?”

Chapter 567 Dam Conference (3)

Said was also somewhat incredulous that Yusuf, whom he had always thought of leading the people of Asara to freedom, actually wanted to re-establish the monarchy that he had personally overthrown.

However, after he finished speaking, the entire office fell into a deathly silence.

"Uncle Said, what you saw of Yusuf might just be... the way he wants you to see him?"

Looking at Said, who was on the verge of becoming withdrawn, Zhang Hao silently stabbed him in the heart again.

"Uncle Said, if Yousef never even had the idea of ​​becoming king... then why is he rushing to rescue Prince Asara before Reiss does?"

Saeed: Ugh, my head hurts.

"If Yusuf truly only wanted to rescue the royal prince who had almost been wiped out and take good care of him, then he couldn't be called a 'tyrant'."

Saeed: Ah, my chest is starting to hurt too.

"So Uncle Said, you can't trust someone too much. I thought you understood this principle before, but it seems you're just as naive as I was before."

Hearing Zhang Hao's words that were both hurtful and devastating, even Sophia, who was sitting next to Said, couldn't help but burst out laughing, and then received a resentful look from Said.

Seeing that Zhang Hao showed no sign of stopping, Said quickly said:

"Stop, stop, stop! I know I was wrong, Xiao Hao. I was too naive before. Please don't say anymore. If you keep talking... I really won't be able to face anyone."

Seeing this, even the usually serious Deep Blue couldn't help but smile. He never expected Xiao Hao to have such a cunning side. Seeing Said like this was indeed quite amusing.

"Sigh, Uncle Said, I was just thinking that as the leader of Dam Zero, you should understand more about humanity, so I thought of this course..."

As Zhang Hao spoke, he glanced at Sophia, who shared the same thought.

Said: No! Xiao Hao, how could you do this! You're trying to kill your Uncle Said! I finally graduated from Sophia's, and now you're thinking of making me go back to school? I might as well be dead.

"No! No need, Xiao Hao, it's completely unnecessary. Trust me, I won't make this mistake again. Don't worry, Xiao Hao. Let's discuss what to do next!"

Sayed said that after hearing Xiao Hao say that he still wanted to take classes, he accepted Yusuf's desire to become Emperor Asara in just 0.01 seconds. However, Sayed suddenly realized that Abel, who was more excited than him before, did not react at all after learning the news.

"Hey Abel, aren't you being a little antisocial? Why am I the only one here looking so surprised? I can understand if Sophia knows, but with your intelligence... I just don't quite believe it."

Faced with Saeed's sudden provocation, Abel calmly replied:

"First of all, Commander Said, I, Abel, am a cultured man. I've read books. I just look a bit dull. Also, haven't you noticed all this time, Commander Said? After Lord Yusef handed over the several regions to you leaders, has he not taken any of the actions he took to bring freedom to the people of Asara?"

After being stabbed in the back by Abel, Saeed slumped against the chair behind him like a kite with a broken string, muttering something like "impossible" and "he's just uneducated."

"Alright, stop making a fool of yourself here. Let's just treat this as an experience for now. Besides, that's what we're saying, but we still need to see what Yusef ultimately wants, right?"

Sophia, seeing Said seemingly reshaping his worldview, couldn't bear it and offered some advice. Shenlan and Zhang Hao nodded in agreement, as this was just the most likely outcome they had guessed.

"Hey, Xiao Hao, what do you guys think? Should I go and help Yousef with this?"

Having run out of options, Said patted his head and forced a restart. He then began to discuss whether he should get involved in the matter. After all, Xiao Hao and his group's target this time was Prince Asara, and considering what Xiao Hao and his group had said before, Said wondered if he should refuse Yousef.

"Yes, the main reason we came here is to discuss this matter with you."

Deep Blue then spoke up:

“Actually, I think you can use this opportunity to investigate the Tide Prison and work with us.”

"Huh? I'm going to go with you? Does that mean I'll... just go with you to rescue people? How am I supposed to explain that to Yousef?"

Hearing Said's question, Deep Blue took out some documents from his backpack and distributed them to Said, Abel, and Sophia according to their level of difficulty.

“I actually have an idea, which is that after we rescue Prince Asara, we can just put him here with you. After all, if we rescue him normally, the prince might just be in a different cage.”

"Um... I'd like to know, why did GTI decide to come and rescue our prince from Asara?"

Sofia also raised her doubts with Deep Blue. "The GTI claims to be here to maintain peace, but so far, it seems like Xiao Hao and his team have been doing thankless work. Now, they're even helping Asara rescue their prince, but Deep Blue just said that even if they rescue him, they'll just be putting Asara in a different prison. Could it be...?"

“It’s very simple. After we rescue Prince Asara, it’s up to you, Chief Yousef, to prepare the ransom and come to our GTI headquarters to redeem him.”

"No way, Uncle Deep Blue, does that mean we... have become robbers?"

Chapter 568 Dam Conference (4)

Zhang Hao said that although he knew that there were some shady things going on behind the scenes with GTI, this was actually quite normal, since GTI involved many different forces.

But after hearing what Shen Lan had just said, Zhang Hao was completely stunned. What did that mean? The people in charge of peace in the Asara region turned around and used Prince Asara as a bargaining chip to sell him back? What is this if not robbery? And isn't this even worse than the theft of the Mandel bricks?

“Xiao Hao, although I hate to admit it, this matter involves many things. You just need to know that there is nothing I can do to stop it. That’s why I thought of cooperating with Said to put the rescued Prince Asara with Said.”

"Well... okay, but what do we do then?"

Said scratched his head. Although he didn't fully understand, he could tell that Deep Blue was implying that the higher-ups at GTI were probably not good people.

After all, if it were truly the correct instruction, Shenlan and Xiaohao wouldn't be in this situation. Said also expressed that their dam side was willing to fully cooperate with Shenlan and his team.

"Well, it'll be simple. You take Abel and Nameless with you to the Tide Prison. You guys... bring some bombs or something. We'll make some noise inside so we can take Raven away in the chaos."

"No problem. By that logic, you must be quite familiar with the layout of this Tidal Prison. I'll just follow behind you, right?"

However, Said saw Shenlan and Xiaohao silently shaking their heads at him.

Saeed: ? ? ? ? ?

"No? Why are you shaking your heads? Don't you know what's going on inside? Then... where did your confidence come from?"

"Haha, well, Uncle Said, it's not like we know nothing at all. We do have some information about that place, but to say that you're very familiar with it... well, that's probably not very likely."

Zhang Hao chuckled awkwardly. There was nothing they could do about it. Claire had indeed tried her best to express herself, but... they could only get a general idea.

“Our sister Luna is very capable. She probably remembers all the routes that Sister Claire mentioned. Uncle Said, don’t worry, just come with us. Besides, we’re a group of people, so if things get really bad, we can just fight our way out.”

Zhang Hao thought about his team's personnel configuration and couldn't help but feel a surge of confidence. With this configuration, Zhang Hao felt that he could easily sweep through Reis's Longbow Valley.

Zhang Hao: Hey, when the time comes, Xiaowen, Uncle Uluru, and I will just blow that bastard Reese's head off from a distance. He likes to show off in front of us every day, but we'll take him down sooner or later!

"Alright, Xiao Hao, underestimating the enemy is a major taboo on the battlefield. We still need to be fully prepared this time and we must not let our guard down, understand? Putting aside everything else, just take Warden Geheros alone. With Wei Long and Roy not here, even the two of them plus Red Wolf might have a hard time against him."

Red Wolf, sitting quietly to one side: ? ? ? ? ? ?

"Deep Blue, is that Geheros really that strong? Even if Wei Long and I combined, we couldn't beat him? What was GTI thinking?!"

Seeing Deep Blue silently nod at him, Red Wolf finally accepted the fact that Gheros had super strong individual combat ability. At the same time, he couldn't help but start complaining about the mysterious actions of GTI's management. It was really possible to let such a talent go.

"Is that warden really as powerful as you say, and what about me too?"

At this moment, Sayed chimed in, seemingly joining in the fun. After glancing at Sayed a few times, Deep Blue nodded in agreement.

"Pretty much. If you replaced Roy with yourself... you'd be able to put up a fight."

"Looks like you're really strong. To get such a high evaluation from you, we definitely need to make more preparations. Xiao Hao, if we run into that Geheros, you better have Roy take you far away, okay?"

Thinking about the potential dangers in Tide Prison, Said suggested that Xiao Hao and Roy find a place to hide first, since Xiao Hao's main combat method is using a sniper rifle, which would be difficult to use in the small map of the prison.

As for Roy... Said knew his own limitations and figured he could sit at the same table as Xiao Hao and obediently stay in the back to provide support.

"Okay, let's settle on this for now. If anything else comes up, I'll have Xiaohao contact you. It's getting late, we need to go back and cook."

Seeing that the matter had been discussed to a sufficient extent, Shen Lan took his leave, saying that there was still a group of people in the Special Operations Department waiting eagerly for him.

Hearing Shenlan say this, Said did not try to persuade him to stay any longer, and said that if the mission was successfully completed, they should set up a big table here and have a meal together.
