Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

Luna: It was Zoya before, and during the halftime break it was Mai Xiaowen's turn. After the lunch break, Xiao Hao's energy will definitely be restored.
And when it's my turn in the evening, hehehe, even if Xiao Hao isn't interested, I feel like I still have enough energy.
Thinking of this, Luna silently licked her lips, and a blush appeared on her normally pale face, as if she had thought of something good.
"Dinner's ready! Why are you all sitting here? Aren't you going to get some food?"
Shen Lan then came out carrying the last dish. Seeing that everyone was sitting at the table but no one was getting any rice, he couldn't help but ask.
Upon hearing this, everyone got up to get more rice. When everyone started eating, Zhang Hao remembered the news he had received from Uncle Rometheus and immediately shared it.
When Shen Lan heard Zhang Hao mention Hudson, a slightly puzzled look appeared in his eyes.
"Efficiency Department Director? Hudson? To be honest, this name is really unfamiliar to me. In our GTI's records of the senior executives of the Hafk Group, I don't think I've heard of any information about this Hudson."
Hearing that even Deep Blue said he felt somewhat unfamiliar with Hudson, Zhang Hao couldn't help but admire Hudson's efficiency.
It can only be said that he truly deserves to be the Minister of Efficiency. From Uncle Rometheus's words, we already know that he also quickly got his father under control and then directly became the largest board member of Hafk.
"Don't worry, Xiao Hao. I'll report this Hudson matter to them later. I don't believe those guys in GTI's information department can't produce any information about Hudson. If he really has no record of him in our GTI, then it can only mean..."
"This means he has people he placed in our GTI."
Zhang Hao followed up on Shen Lan's words and mentioned this possibility.
"And Uncle Deep Blue, I also talked to Aunt Demulan before. I feel that the opportunity to end the conflict between Asara and the Hafk Group may really be in my hands."
"Aunt Demurean said that as long as Uncle Said can directly unify Asara and have absolute autonomy, and is no longer constantly interfered with by Reis or Youssef, she is willing to give up some of the treaties previously signed with the Asara royal family and negotiate terms properly."
After hearing Zhang Hao's words, everyone in the Special Operations Department looked at him. Could this Demulan really be so kind?
"Xiao Hao, I think... this Demulan must have some other requirements, right?"
Shen Lan also stared straight at Zhang Hao. He didn't believe in such a windfall. After all, Asara and Hafk had been fighting for years. If Demulan was willing to make such a concession, then there was only one possible outcome.
"Uncle Deep Blue, actually I think if it's just me staying in Asara, then it's a very worthwhile thing. Don't you guys think that's infuriating?"
Zhang Hao was well aware of this. He knew what Aunt Demulan was thinking, but if sacrificing himself could bring peace to this land, then it would truly be worth it.
"Xiao Hao, are you really sure? After all, you're from China, and they said they were willing to accept you last time."
"Of course, Uncle Deep Blue, after all, this is for the sake of peace."
Chapter 614 Rometheus: I'm helpless too
However, no one present was surprised by Zhang Hao's answer, since they had all expected it.
"It's okay, Xiao Hao. My goal in joining GTI was to find Claire, and now Claire is right in front of me, completely safe and sound. I'll stay here with you then."
Luna spoke immediately, rubbing Zhang Hao's head as she spoke, secretly pleased with her quick reflexes.
Moreover, seeing the surprised expressions on Zoya and Mai Xiaowen's faces, Luna couldn't help but feel secretly pleased. This feeling was just too good!
"I...I...I will always stay with you, Xiao Hao. Don't worry, Xiao Hao. I'll stay here with Asara from now on, and I can take you to China for a trip when we have time."
Just as Zoya was still thinking about what to say, Mai Xiaowen followed up with her own words, which made Zoya, who wasn't good at speaking, so anxious that she almost took her anger out on Uluru next to her.
Uluru: Ding! My spider senses are telling me there's danger. At this moment, I must quietly and silently move carefully to Terry's side. After all, Terry's skin is thicker than mine, so I can take a few more hits.
Zoya finally managed to get the words out, but Deep Blue interrupted her directly:
"You don't need to say it. Anyway, that's the gist of it. Maybe it will mean something else entirely if you say it out loud. And you two don't need to be so anxious or excited, or to express your opinions to Xiao Hao. You should know that as long as Hafk hasn't withdrawn from Asara, we GTI have an obligation to keep an eye on this area."
Zoya: I... Old Deng, what you're saying isn't human. What do you mean by saying that my words can be distorted? My ability to express myself isn't as bad as you make it out to be. If I hadn't been so satisfied with the news you gave me later, I would have thrown a tantrum in front of you.
"Alright, I'll go find the higher-ups to gather information about that Hudson. Now that he's coming to Asara, he can't just stay out of our sight like before."
As lunch ended, Zhang Hao, yawning, was carried to Mai Xiaowen's room. However, when Luna saw this scene, she secretly smiled.
Luna: Hehehe, Xiao Hao, you should rest well at noon. I'll be waiting for you in bed after I've taken a shower tonight!

. . . . . . . . . . . .
Meanwhile, inside the space base, after Zhang Hao left, Demulan recovered and began to think about how to deal with Hudson, that damned guy.
"Forget it, let's ask Rometheus instead. He's better at coming up with clever ideas. As a military officer, I should focus on stabilizing the morale of our troops first."
Demulan, after thinking it over, immediately made a phone call to Rometheus:
"Hey, I have something to ask you."
Rometheus had initially thought that Demulan already knew everything he had confessed, but Demulan's question immediately made him back down, and he asked somewhat uncertainly:
"No... Can you talk this out? What questions have I not told you? I think I've already told you everything, even how Hudson bribed me, okay?"
Hearing Rometheus's lack of confidence, Demulan began to wonder if seeking him out was the right decision.
"I just wanted to ask you if you had any ideas on how to deal with Hudson. Why are you so agitated? Could it be that you're hiding something from me?"
Hearing that Demulan had only come to discuss how to deal with Hudson, Rometheus breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought that Demulan had discovered that he had bought a batch of potions in her name.
"Hiss~~~ But you're coming to me now to talk about how to deal with Hudson, I really can't answer you. Xiao Hao should have told you about Hudson's setup as I know it."
“I know, but so what? Someone like him wouldn’t be planning to break ties with me right away. What I’m thinking about is how to prevent him from implementing his money-saving theories at my space base.”
"Hey! Demulan, you mustn't get this wrong. Once Hudson arrives at the space station, it will belong to him and Daisy. You'll just be an employee at best. After all, even though you have military power, you're still no match for the imperial envoy."
Rometheus also ruthlessly brought Demulan, who was still trying to maintain his position, into reality. This Hudson's power was much greater than that of the previous Richard.
Putting aside the fact that this guy is currently the largest board member at Hafk, the optimizations he's made at Hafk headquarters have genuinely improved the company's efficiency, as seen on paper.
"That guy... how dare he fire my employees like that? What he did is tantamount to murder. Because of him, many of our employees, who were already disabled, risked their lives for us on the battlefield. And now, if nothing unexpected happens, once he takes office, the first batch of soldiers to suffer will be those who shed blood and tears for the Hafk Group."
Rometheus, listening to Desmoulins' words, was momentarily at a loss for words. After scratching his head, Rometheus offered the same advice Daisy had given earlier:
“Reduce staff attendance during this period. Don’t give that guy any leverage. None of us know what he’ll do here. Also, keep your records in order. The first thing he’ll do when he gets here is check your space base’s records. Don’t let him find any mistakes. As for me… I’ll be frank, I can’t get involved in this. It’s up to you and Daisy to handle it.”
After hanging up the phone, Demulan, with a heavy expression, called Mary over and relayed the instructions Rometheus had given him. Then, he went to the window alone and looked at the dock area where construction had begun. For the first time, Demulan was lost in confusion.
Chapter 615 I Want Chaos (1)
"Hoo~ hoo~ no, I think there's something wrong with your head. Why don't we just leave these things to the common people? Why are we doing all this?"
The raven, panting heavily, turned to look at Said, who was still excitedly wielding his hoe, and asked with a puzzled expression:
"Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder your royal family can't hold onto that position. You're wrong about your thinking, you know? Asara doesn't belong to your family. Asara belongs to the people of Asara. And you, you're not the Prince Asara you used to be, understand? In my eyes, you're just an ordinary Asara commoner."
Raven: I feel like... you're just trying to manipulate me. I feel like you're the one who's having the most fun doing farm work here.
"What are your plans next? Just keep farming here? Reiss looks really weak right now. If you ask me, you should just go and cooperate with that bastard Yusef and take down Reiss first."
Seeing Said's peaceful and content demeanor, Raven couldn't help but want him to lead his men to wipe out Reis and seize Longbow Valley and the outskirts of Bacchus.
"What's the rush? Our dam is still in the foundation-laying stage. You know, if we don't lay a solid foundation, Reis's fate will be our fate."
Faced with this raven whose head was constantly scheming how to cause trouble, Said spoke very "calmly".
After bringing Barton back, Said was pleasantly surprised to find that the kid was indeed quite clever. No wonder he had said that some of Reese's plans had gone awry.
Said: Hehehe, good, it's good to have a sharp mind. I'm short of sharp minds here. And judging from his complaints, this guy has been dissatisfied with Reis for a long time.
Barton's plans were approved by Sofia, and now Abel has a new colleague.
With Patton's arrival, it can be said that Sayyid was completely liberated. After discovering that he could perfectly handle the official duties that were originally his responsibility, Sayyid began to happily lead the Raven in "labor reform".
Raven: Heh, I bet you just couldn't catch that masked guy lately, so you thought of bringing me over to be your free labor force.
"Build a foundation, build a foundation. I've been here for a few days and I haven't seen you focus on military strength. Do you even understand that in Asara, only if you have power will you not be bullied? If you grow so much food but don't have the strength, it will all be taken away by others."
Said did not refute what the German Shepherd said. However, after planting the last seedling, he got up, walked over, and said to the raven:
"Come with me. I don't know where you got the feeling that I don't value strategists, but now that you're part of the dam, I'll take you on a tour of our dam's armory."
As he spoke, Said walked ahead, and Raven followed him after hearing what Said said. He wanted to see what kind of weapons were in the dam that Said was talking about.
After arriving at a warehouse at the top of the dam, Sayed kindly reminded the raven behind him:
"I've already told you beforehand, so don't be surprised. Right now, no one can successfully breach our dam... except for the guided missiles from Hafk's side."
After saying that, Said opened the warehouse door in front of him and led Raven inside.
After entering, Said turned on a light switch, and the entire huge warehouse was immediately revealed to the two of them.
"This...where did you get this? Where did you get so much money? And that tank, isn't that the Hamk tank from the previous intelligence report?"
After Said turned on the lights, Raven transformed into a babbling child, staring in astonishment at the rows of planes and tanks parked in front of it. Raven immediately recognized the giant tank parked in the very center.
He already knew about the collaboration between Hamk and Hafk back when he was still in Tide Prison, and the tank in front of him was naturally the one that Hafk had given to Hamk.
"This is just one of the warehouses for storing vehicles. There's another one for storing combat vehicles and anti-aircraft vehicles, and another one for storing weapons and ammunition. So, is there anything else you want to say?"
Seeing the raven's dumbfounded expression, Said couldn't help but feel a surge of satisfaction. Was this the feeling of being slapped in the face that Xiao Hao had told him about? This was so satisfying! Especially seeing that expression on the raven's face, Said felt that it was all worth it.
Said: That's right, you all think so pessimistically about our dam. Xiao Hao is right. As long as our current interests are aligned, showing weakness appropriately can get the support of our allies. After all, the barrel effect applies here. If they want us to work properly, they have to pay some price to help us.
"Are you out of your mind? You're so rich, and you have so many planes and tanks, why don't you fight? What are you doing here? Just watching? I really don't understand what you're thinking, it's driving me crazy."
After regaining his senses, Raven continued to spew venom at Said without any restraint. He was now thinking about how to completely throw Asara into chaos, but Said was now telling him something.
He clearly has the ability to turn the entire Asara upside down, but this guy is just pretending to be a fool here for the sake of "stability" and "killing with one blow" that Xiao Hao talks about.
Back when Raven was in Tide Prison, he had been paying attention to Said and Dam Zero for a long time. After seeing him go from starving people to forming an alliance with Reiss, Raven never imagined how powerful Said and Dam Zero could be.
But now that he's been forcibly taken to Dam Zero, he realizes just how big the error is in the intelligence he's received. He can't believe it. If Said is like this, then how could the intelligence about Reis and Yousef be accurate?
Happy New Year (1)
"Xiao Hao, Xiao Hao, we're almost there, wake up!"
After hearing Mai Xiaowen's slightly excited voice, Zhang Hao groggily opened his eyes.
"Phew~~~ We're finally almost there. I'm really tired after sitting on the plane all the way."
As Zhang Hao spoke, he looked out the airplane window, and as his destination drew closer, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
"I...I'm home."
Hearing this from the side, Mai Xiaowen also felt sorry for Zhang Hao and hugged him tightly, saying gently:
"Yes, we're home, Xiao Hao, and... for me, wherever you are, that's home."
