Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

Yusuf's cunning is far greater than that of Lassa, and moreover, Reis knows that Yusuf, like himself, is secretly searching for the nobles of Asara.

Reiss saw right through Yusuf's little schemes. If you said Yusuf had no interest in Asara's throne, Reiss would not believe it at all.

Reese: Damn it, you think your ideas can escape my sharp eyes? Let's be honest, neither of us is a good person. We'll have to face off sooner or later. I just don't know if this bastard will stab me in the back during the chaos.

Reis's level of vigilance towards Said and Yousef was different. As for Said, Reis basically stopped paying attention to him. After so many years together, he could roughly figure out what Said was thinking.

Reese: Damn it, even if you gave him this raven, he'd probably drag him to farm instead of being king. Damn it, the raven... Tidal Prison!!!

When Reese thought of the Tidal Prison, his eyes lit up. Yes, there were still a lot of Asara prisoners there, and not only Raven, but Barton himself should also be imprisoned there if nothing had happened to him.

Barton: Wow, I didn't expect you to still remember me, Lord Reis. But if nothing unexpected happens, I think I'll probably stay in Commander Said's Zero Dam for the rest of my life.

However, Reese also suddenly remembered why Barton was left there last time, and thinking about the level of security in that Tidal Prison, Reese felt a headache coming on.

"Damn it, I almost forgot again. Last time, I led a group of people there to try and steal that raven, and I brought his supporters with me."

Thinking back to that crisis, Reis couldn't help but shudder. If he hadn't run fast enough last time, he would have been caught by that bastard Demulan.

The thought of being captured and imprisoned inside made Reis, Asara's most formidable man, feel somewhat embarrassed. No matter how skilled he was, he wouldn't be able to get out unless someone came to rescue him.

"Damn it, the reason I was forced into that situation last time was probably because those damned GTIs were still there. If we get rid of those GTIs this time, and if that old woman Demulan doesn't arrive, and if I release those guys, we should be able to evacuate, right?"

Geherus: Child, don't dream of things that can't be realized. Why don't you look at the ash with the padlock in my hand and say it again?

Feeling frustrated about the place that had left him with psychological trauma, Reese grabbed a bottle of strong liquor from the liquor cabinet and gulped it down in a few mouthfuls.

"Damn it! Now that Patton is gone, a lot of data is left unprocessed, and I have to do the headcount. Damn it, I'll do it. I can't just sit here and wait to die. And if I can rescue Patton this time, I'll have another strategist!"

Under the influence of alcohol, Reiss declared that he couldn't care less about anything else and that he had to go to the Tide Prison now, not for any other reason than to increase his chances of survival later.

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

Meanwhile, inside Dam Zero...

"Why are you starting to do this now, even holding meetings? You can just call them over and say a few words normally, are you going to make some kind of meeting minutes later?"

Inside the newly tidied meeting room, Wuming looked at Said with a speechless expression. Said was holding documents and looking serious. What was this guy up to now? Why didn't he just say what he wanted to say? What was he trying to do with all this fancy stuff?

"Ahem, shut up. I learned this from Weilong and the others. I also heard Weilong talk about what meeting minutes are."

Seeing that Said was about to steer the conversation astray again, Sofia spoke up:

"Quiet down, everyone. Xiao Hao and the others are also here for the video conference. Youssef called Said today. I think it's probably just like Xiao Hao predicted for us. Hudson has probably run into a wall with us and started contacting Youssef."

Just as Sofia finished speaking, Zhang Hao directly joined the video call via the projector:

"Oh, everyone's here! Uncle Said, you even set up a... meeting room? That's impressive, you're getting more and more complete!"

Chapter 779 Patton at Max Warning

After a few brief pleasantries, Sayed recounted to Zhang Hao and the others the conversation that Yousef had had with him earlier that day:

“I have a feeling that something is definitely wrong with Yusef’s approach to me this time. I feel like he has something he wants to say to me, but for some reason he didn’t say it.”

After listening to Said's words, Zhang Hao began to think about how Yousef had spoken to Said's uncle. This was undoubtedly a signal to Said that he was currently paying close attention to Reis.

"It is indeed very likely that Youssef has already had contact with Hudson. After all, after listening to what you said, Uncle Said, I feel that Youssef is indeed testing your opinion on what he is doing."

Zhang Hao's statement was immediately endorsed by Said and Sofia. While others might not be very familiar with Yousef, Said proudly stated that he knew Yousef very well.

“That’s right. Actually, I also felt that Youssef was testing me a bit. However, there’s been no news from Reis so far. After he didn’t get any useful information from me, he just hung up the phone.”

Said thought about Yousef's somewhat strange state and felt that what Xiao Hao said was probably true. It seemed that this peaceful period was about to end, so there was no need for him to hold back any longer. It was time to show their fangs.

Said: Now it's time to end this chaos. I've been showing weakness all along. Now let's see who will be the ultimate winner between Reis and Youssef.

When one of the two begins to weaken, that will be the time for Said to make his move. Neither Reis nor Yousef could have imagined that he had already formed a cooperation with Demulan and the others.

Said: Luckily I have Xiao Hao here. Sofia used to say that my taste was so-so, but if you put my taste in Asara, I'd say I'm second to none!

"It seems that Reis's good days are over. Judging from how eager Hudson was when he contacted us, he will definitely increase his stakes when seeking cooperation with Youssef."

"And if we were to deal with Reese then, I think Reese in his current state wouldn't be able to withstand it at all. What do you think of Barton?"

Abel also put forward his own idea. You see, he had long wanted to see Reis get a good beating, and now someone was finally going to punish him, although Abel didn't really like the person who was punishing Reis.

"Hmm... But based on my understanding of Boss Reis, he is definitely not the kind of person who would just stay in one place and wait to die."

Barton, stroking his chin, said seriously that when it comes to understanding Reese, no one can rival him. Barton claimed that he could practically read Reese's mind.

Moreover, given Reese's extremely predictable mind, Barton also indicated that Reese would definitely pull off another spectacular move just when everyone thought he was about to give up.

Barton: And I don’t know why, but I have a feeling, though it’s a bit ominous to say, that even if Youssef and Hudson team up this time, it seems like they can’t take down Reese in one fell swoop.

When Barton shared his idea with the others, they all looked incredulous.

"You've got to say something, Barton. I know you and Reese have a deep bond, and that guy is indeed quite skilled, but think about it, even if Reese was incredibly powerful back then, didn't he almost get killed by this Demulan?"

Unfortunately, Abel immediately refuted Barton's words, stating that Barton had played a significant role in Reese's survival during that incident.

"Think about it, Barton. What did you tell us back then? When you were still in Longbow Valley, you were in charge of everything. Now that Reese is missing your external brain, don't you think that's a huge blow to Reese?"

Barton fell silent in response to Abel's words. It seemed that Reese might indeed take some radical actions now that he was not by his side.

However, the lingering unease in his heart prevented Barton from truly putting his mind at ease.

"In short... I feel it's better to be more cautious about Reis's side. Better safe than sorry."

"Yes, we'll be patrolling the Longbow Valley area more often during this time to see if Reiss will pull any new tricks. Don't worry about that."

Zhang Hao also said in the video that even if others lowered their guard against Reis, at least he and Aunt Demulan would definitely not.

After all, Reis had been arrogant in front of them for far too long. This bastard should have been taken to Tide Prison or the International Military Tribunal for a proper trial long ago.

However, each time it was just a matter of being just a little short, so Zhang Hao also said that they still needed to be on the highest alert level with Reis to prevent him from escaping at the most dangerous moment.

After hanging up the video call from Said, Zhang Hao lay down on the large bed behind him and mentally reviewed everything that had happened recently.

"Well, the main thing now is whether Yousef can take down Reis. But no matter what, with Uncle Said's current armed forces, it wouldn't be a problem for them to take advantage of these two when they are weakened."

As Zhang Hao thought about the upcoming battle between Youssef and Reis, he couldn't help but start to speculate.

If Youssef were to receive Hudson's material assistance, his offensive capabilities would naturally increase significantly. However, Reese's Longbow Valley... is also a tough nut to crack.

Chapter 780 Roar of the Flame Demon

While the prospect of Hudson and Youssef teaming up might indeed be appealing, Zhang Hao also has a clear understanding of Reiss's Longbow Valley, which, after upgrades, boasts maximum protective capabilities.

After all, when they gathered to prepare for the attack on Reis's Longbow Valley last time, they had witnessed the defensive capabilities of his buildings after their modifications.

Zhang Hao: Of course, if Hudson could just launch a few guided missiles into Longbow Valley like Aunt Demulan did back then, then Reis's supposedly formidable defenses would probably be nothing more than a piece of paper.

"Oh, my dear host, it's been a long time since I've seen you look like you're deep in thought. What's wrong? Have you run into some difficult problem again?"

9527, who had been counting points in the mental space, saw that only Xiao Hao was in the room, so it flew out of the mental space of its account and circled around Zhang Hao a few times before asking a question.

"Well, it's nothing really, it's just that I feel like the future is going to be pretty chaotic, and I wonder if there's a way to resolve this quickly."

As Zhang Hao spoke, he kept glancing at 9527 with his eyes, and his blatant little actions were naturally hard to miss.

"Sigh, with your current strength, you shouldn't be in such a hurry. Come on, come on, the cooldown for this month's lottery is just over now, come and try your luck."

9527 shook his head helplessly. This Xiao Hao is starting to speak so euphemistically now. If he wants special treatment, why doesn't he just say so directly?

"Hehehe, I knew 9527, you're the best! Speaking of which, I feel like all I'm missing right now is a real [divine weapon], don't you think?"

Zhang Hao smiled and winked at 9527. To be honest, he really didn't lack anything now. After all, whether it was intelligence or combat ability, Zhang Hao believed that he was already almost there.

Now, the only thing that I've always felt is lacking is probably just a weapon that I'm comfortable with.

9527: You? Xiao Hao, were you really not joking with me? You mean... do you feel your IQ is good enough now? I feel it's very necessary to remind you, Xiao Hao, that this is just gaining some god-like learning ability, it hasn't improved your IQ at all.

But seeing Zhang Hao's longing eyes, 9527 could only silently stuff the several artifacts that didn't belong to this world into the blind box.

9527: What can I do? If I don't spoil my own little Hao, who will?

"Ahem, since you're so devout, come on, these are all divine artifacts. You can choose whatever you want, but if it doesn't end up being yours, Xia Huan, I won't exchange it. If you really want it, you'll have to wait until next month."

Zhang Hao was already looking at 9527 with excitement. It was called a divine artifact, so what could he possibly be dissatisfied with!

An excited Zhang Hao grabbed 9527 and rubbed it against her happily, but this action turned 9527 into a "steam girl".

"Ah!!! Xiao Hao, what are you doing?! I'm so embarrassed!"

9527's face turned bright red at a visible speed, and then she screamed. Why did Xiao Hao suddenly grab her and do such an intimate thing? She wasn't prepared at all!

"You, you, you... Go pick it yourself! You brat, all you do is bully me! I'm ignoring you!"

With his eyes turning into two mosquito coils, 9527 fled in panic after saying those words, running back into Zhang Hao's mental space.

Judging from this situation, it seems unlikely that Zhang Hao will be able to get her out anytime soon.

"Uh... You're always spouting nonsense, I thought you were some old hand, 9527, but it turns out that's all you are?"

After trying various methods without success, Zhang Hao had no choice but to give up on the idea and then turned his attention back to the three blind boxes in front of him.

"Are they all divine artifacts? I'm really curious then. What good things has 9527 prepared for me? But as always, I'll just pick the one in the middle!"

Zhang Hao touched his chin and, after a brief moment of "contemplation," once again chose the blind box placed in the middle.

After touching the blind box in the middle, the other two blind boxes on either side disappeared into thin air. As the blind box in the middle opened, Zhang Hao's pupils widened in shock.

"This...this...this is truly the artifact I've always dreamed of! 9527 is so incredibly kind to me. With this artifact, what about that mere Reis? He can just wash his neck and wait for it to be done for."

Looking at the gun in front of him, forged entirely from an unknown dark metal, with patterns of molten lava on its body and a ferocious demonic engraving covering the barrel, this dark gold sniper rifle, adorned with a touch of bright red, appeared before Zhang Hao's eyes.

"Roar of the Flame Demon..."

As the gun came into his hands, Zhang Hao gently stroked it as if he were caressing a lover. He could almost hear the roar of the gun as it fired.

"I'm invincible! I really feel invincible now! No, no, I have to go to the shooting range and try out this gun!"

Zhang Hao couldn't wait any longer and rushed out of the room with the Flame Demon Roar in hand. As a sniper, how could he just hold such a divine weapon in his hand and play with it?

Zhang Hao: This is seriously so cool! I wonder if Luna and the others are downstairs. Although it's a bit unbelievable that such a cool gun could appear out of thin air, I've already had so many unbelievable things happen to me, so one more won't make a difference.

Chapter 781 Roar of the Flame Demon (2)

As Zhang Hao carried the Flame Demon Roar downstairs, Claire, who was chatting with Luna on the sofa, also caught a glimpse of Zhang Hao coming downstairs in a casual glance.
