Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

Unlike the silent Blue Eagle helicopters, the three squads sent out by Hamk presented a completely different scene.

"Hey, Captain, if we run into any pretty girls when we go out to cause trouble later, don't report it. Let the guys have a taste of the good life!"

The people in this group are all ruthless criminals; to describe them as utterly wicked would be an understatement.

"Hmph, you just wait and see. We're going to break the arms and legs of a few more people and hand them over, you know? And keep that woman for me, you can have your fun with what's left."

Their captain spoke to them without any politeness, but none of the team members objected. The reason was that every captain in the team arranged by Hamk had completely subdued the team members with force. There was no such thing as management skills or intelligence here, only force, and force was everything.

Besides causing destruction, another thing they did this time was to create some "disabled" people and send them to Hafk in exchange for weapons and resources. It should be noted that Hafk is not like the other two leaders.

Said has the support of Youssef, and although he doesn't have many resources, he can still maintain a basic survival. On the other hand, Reis has found a large amount of the old King Asara's property, so he can be said to be the richest man in Asara.

As for their leader Hamk, he was wanted for quite some time after betraying Youssef, but it was during that time that he discovered the castle behind the Ouroboros district, which has now become their "base camp".

"Hey Captain, we're almost there! What do we do next?!"

A shifty-eyed soldier named Asara, who clearly wasn't a good person, asked the captain, his face full of excitement.

"Hmph, why get so worked up? Just like before, take a few of the old ones with you, give the young ones a couple of taps on the head and limbs, cripple them and take them back. As for the women, take the pretty ones, and leave the unattractive ones the same as before."

The captain, however, had little interest. This was because Hamk had ordered them to do this kind of thing far too often, and he and the other captains had long since become numb to it.

Previously, there might have been some compassion for those babies, but as time went on, coupled with the fact that Hamk and his group of perverts had long since become a bunch of psychopaths.

Looking at the several new faces in front of him, the captain walking behind just smiled disdainfully. In his opinion, these newbies should die on the battlefield, and only veterans like himself who had been through countless battles could survive in this war.

These men, who deserved to die, even came up with an excuse for themselves. They often said to the new recruits:

"These people like to say that we Hamk people are brutal, but they are wrong, they are completely wrong. We are doing this for freedom! For Asara! They are going to die sooner or later anyway, dying on the road to Asara's freedom. This time, we are doing them a favor!"

Rometheus had also wondered why Hamk was always able to send him so many "fresh" experimental materials. He wasn't stupid; he could figure out the reason just by thinking about it. But he still chose to use Hamk's supplies to make an exchange with Hamk.

Ella knew at the time that these "disabled" individuals were intentionally created by Hamk, but seeing Rometheus still making deals with Hamk without batting an eye, she couldn't stand it anymore and confronted him:

"Teacher, I don't understand! You should know where these test subjects came from! How can you continue like this! Those were all children who should have been normal! You're doing this for your own selfish desires, for your dirty ideals!"

Rometheus did not look up at that moment, but simply gave a brief explanation:

"Ella, have you ever thought that since last month I've only been accepting elderly people, children, and women? Well, there might still be a few men with brain defects."

"I'm not talking about that right now, Rometheus! Where is your humanity?"

"Tsk, sigh! Ella, do you think their fate would be as rosy as you imagine if I didn't do this?"

Rometheus stopped what he was doing, rubbed his tired brow, and turned to look at Ella.

"They will still be found by Hamk. Hamk is just a bandit who claims to be restoring Asara. He will keep the useful men as his fighting force, but what about these old people, children, and women? Heh, what do you think their fate will be? Do you really expect someone like him to be willing to spend resources to support these [burdens]?"

After listening to Rometheus's words, Ella calmed down a bit and began to think about everything Rometheus had said.

"But...but why can't we let them come here safely? We..."

But this time, Rometheus directly and sternly interrupted the student who was bursting with "sense of justice".

"Why?! So now you think Hafk will act like a saint and support these people who are of no use to them? You should know about equivalent exchange, right? They come here, those who can survive will be saved, those who can't survive, those who have a rejection reaction to the machine, those who can't survive, that's their fate!"

Ella stared blankly at the man before her, a man who was no longer the innocent person Zoya had described.

"What I did could be considered giving them a second life, don't you understand? They should thank me. This is a win-win situation. After perfecting the brain-computer interface, it will benefit all mankind! So Ella, put away your school-era thinking. We're not in Russia anymore, this is Asara! This isn't school either, this is the Hafk Group's Tower of Babel!"

Rometheus said so much in one breath, then sat down in a chair, took a sip of coffee, glanced at Ella who was standing there in a daze, sighed helplessly, stood up and patted her on the shoulder.

“There are never any winners in war, only losers. Everyone is a loser. All we can do is minimize the losses and bring hope to as many people as possible. I don’t understand Hafk, but I can’t live without him. War is cruel. Ella, I hope you can understand. Go back and rest. You’re not feeling well.”

After saying that, under Ella's complicated gaze, Rometheus put on his white lab coat and returned to his laboratory.

Chapter 155 Exploded

Back to the present, the three squads that Hamk sent out had all arrived at the outskirts of a village in Longbow Valley.

"Boss, I'm going first! Hey, it's been so long since I've seen blood, I'm going to have some fun today."

The man with the pointed face and monkey-like cheeks was excitedly preparing to rush in with his gun and wreak havoc, but he was stopped by the captain.

"What's the rush? Have you forgotten how Amara died? Even Said would have people lying in ambush in the shadows, and Reis is even more cunning."

After he finished speaking, he called over a soldier behind him, who then took out a drone from his bag.

"Let's go check out the situation inside first. I don't want to lose my life here."

So, after the drone had conducted some reconnaissance, the man operating the drone said:

"There was only one small squad guarding the inside, and their equipment was even worse than ours. The rest were mostly old people and children; we didn't see many women."

After receiving the information from inside, the team leader felt reassured and began issuing tasks to everyone.

"You and he go and take care of that team guarding the gate. You take charge of the old ones, and you, the young one, understand? Let's get started!"

Those still in the village never imagined that their lives would soon be out of their own hands.

But just as these three groups were preparing to extend their evil reach into the village, a sharp-eyed soldier tapped the captain on the shoulder and said:

"Captain... Captain, look at that! What's that? I... I feel like it's a bomb!"

These people stopped in their tracks and looked up at the black object that was falling madly toward them.

"Oh no! It's a bomb! Run!"

Before the soldier could even see clearly, the captain had already started running outside. Seriously, what else could fall from the sky in this place besides bombs? Bird droppings?

"boom!!!"

With a loud bang, the team members were blown away and began to scatter in all directions, while the silhouette of a helicopter gradually appeared in the sky.

"It's a helicopter! There's an ambush! We've fallen into a trap!"

The other two members of the team were almost completely wiped out by the bombing, the cause of death being that they did not look up at the sky.

On the Blue Hawk helicopter, Black Hawk watched the soldiers fleeing in all directions on the ground, then took out his walkie-talkie and reported to Ella, who was far away in Babel:

"Report: Three squads of soldiers from Longbow Valley have been spotted. Two squads have been wiped out, and a few members of the remaining squad escaped. Should we continue dropping bombs?"

Meanwhile, Ella was engrossed in a conversation with Mary and impatiently replied:

"Okay, that's enough. We were just going to make a show of it anyway. Come back now. Oh, and remember to take some photos. Make sure they look nice."

If Rometheus were around, he would definitely be silently chuckling "666".

After giving her instructions, Ella turned to Mary and began to complain about her "cheap teacher".

"Sigh, let me tell you, he was only two years older than me back then..."

But what she didn't know was that her best friend Mary was currently engaged in a fierce competition, and she had hired a programmer to create an AI specifically for her to match Ella's fighting style.

It's worth noting that although Ella is also Rometheus's secretary, their workloads are worlds apart, which is also related to their different mindsets.

Ella: Ugh, so much to do! I'll just throw it all on the teacher's desk while he's asleep. It's not hard anyway, hehe! (?'?`?)

Mary: Oh my gosh! For Hafk! For Ms. Desmoulins's guidance! I will work hard, I will strive, I will become the most indispensable person by Ms. Desmoulins's side!

After receiving the order, Black Hawk filmed the scene, even changing positions several times to film. Afterward, it directed the helicopter to fly back.

After hearing the loud explosion outside the village, the villagers were so frightened that they all took refuge in the air-raid shelters they had dug earlier. The soldiers guarding the village only poked their heads out after they saw the huge helicopter leave.

"Hey, what are they doing? Are they going to bomb our village? Why did they plant a few bombs outside and then run away?"

One of the soldiers expressed his complete incomprehension, but he quite approved of this approach.

"I don't know. They've left. Should we go out and take a look?"

One of the bolder soldiers suggested that, seeing that there was no more movement outside, the others also decided to go out and see what was going on.

After they all went outside, they looked at the scene outside and couldn't help but gasp in shock.

There were several large craters outside, and on some of the craters, there were still remnants of the "people's fragments" from the two squads.

"What... what's going on?"

One of the more timid soldiers' voices trembled as he looked at the bloody mess; he almost vomited up his meal.

"Wait! They don't seem to be our people. Our people's helmets are specially modified, look, they aren't."

After the sharp-eyed soldiers discovered the news, they discussed it briefly and decided to report it to Reis first. After all, this was a serious matter and not something that a few lowly soldiers could decide on their own.

As for the few Hamk soldiers who managed to escape, they found a slightly secluded spot to hide and recover their strength after running until they were exhausted.

"Huff...huff...huff, how is this possible? We clearly didn't tell anyone about our operation! How could we have been exposed!"

The captain still looked shaken, repeatedly saying "impossible, impossible."

“Captain, this must be Hafk’s helicopter. I don’t believe Reis could buy a helicopter of this size.”

The soldier standing next to him was also trembling as he spoke. He felt fear the moment he saw such a large helicopter.

"Could it be that the relationship between Reiss and Hafk is far more complicated than we know? Damn it, this Reiss is a traitor! I must go back and report to Lord Hafk; this matter is of utmost importance."

After catching his breath, the captain decided to go back and report to Hamk. Although they themselves were not clean, he felt indignant to see the Hamk Group treating them differently!

"Let's go! We need to get back quickly and let Lord Hamk make the decision."

Reese: Hmm? Why is my eyelid twitching? Oh well, whatever, I said there's still a month left, the sky won't fall down all at once.

Hamk: Ouch, my right eye keeps twitching. That shouldn't be the case. I went there for territory and resources, and I even sent three squads. I must be overthinking it.

Rometheus: Oh dear, I woke up from a nap and got an MVP!

Is Chapter 156 yours?

"What?! Someone tried to attack the village I'm protecting? And they were bombed by Hafk's planes?"

Lying on the bed, Reis glared angrily at the trembling soldiers in front of him. Damn it, now that they see he's injured, all sorts of nobodies dare to provoke him.

“Boss, I’m absolutely certain I’m not mistaken. They’re definitely not one of our people. I strongly suspect they were sent by Hamk, because two of our brothers were captured by them before!”

The soldiers also took the opportunity to tell Reiss about how Hamk had led his men to injure and take away two of his brothers a few days earlier.

"What? There's actually such a thing? Damn it, it seems like Hamk has been living too comfortably lately. I haven't even gone after him yet, and he's already making his move on me."

Reis hadn't expected Hamk to become so arrogant. Back then, he had led a team to defeat Hamk, forcing him to run around Asara. Reis had been too busy to send anyone to cause trouble for Hamk, but now Hamk had come after him.

"Damn it, who gave him the courage? Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you. How dare anyone else bully my men?"

"Hey, you guys just said that Hafk sent helicopters to support us? Are you sure you didn't read that wrong? I don't believe those bastards would be that kind."
