A few minutes later, he saw a corner of the anomaly.

He didn't approach, but silently kept his distance.

Not to mention these outsiders, even the people involved did not expect such a scene.

Liu Chongyu led several "flag bearers" to demarcate a location and test the effectiveness of the water control flag.

He originally intended to use this to alleviate urban flooding, and specifically chose an area covering two low-lying areas.

In fact, they had conducted a small-scale test the day before.

Four water-controlling flags planted in the ground can evaporate the water from a pond in less than three seconds.

But he never expected that this thing could even evaporate rainwater falling from the sky instantly.

This point was overlooked in previous tests.

Liu Chongyu panicked and quickly called Director Zhao for instructions.

Director Zhao, however, seemed calm and collected, as if he had expected it, and told him to wait a few minutes before leaving.

Liu Chongyu waited patiently for three minutes until his men reported that the water in the area had been cleared before he ordered them to stop.

The incident caused a huge uproar online.

Even though the water control flag only covers an area of ​​one kilometer, quite a few people still see it.

Moreover, with the internet so readily available these days, many people filmed short videos on the spot.

Many eyewitnesses have come forward to give their accounts, while netizens from other places have also refuted the claims, believing that it was AI-generated.

The most convincing evidence is a popular comment.

"If this thing is real, how could the government allow it to spread?"

Watanabe Ichijo thought he was seeing things when he saw the message.

But he knew it was true!

The Great Xia must have developed some kind of special weapon that can control rainwater!

He didn't bother to gather intelligence and hurriedly reported the matter.

As one of the main people in charge of intelligence on Great Xia in the island nation, he can directly communicate with high-ranking officials in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' intelligence work.

The official's name was Ueda.

When he received the information from Watanabe Ichijo, Uedano's expression became very serious, yet also subtly revealed excitement.

Unlike Watanabe Ichijo's guess that Otsuka had developed some kind of special weapon, he was certain that it must be a supernatural method.

It's like a miracle drug that can cure all diseases.

There was also the "Eastern Dragon" mentioned by the Sam who was contacting him.

He was convinced that all of this existed.

He comes from a distinguished family; his great-grandfather was a high-ranking officer in the island nation's military and participated in the war against Daxia.

Of course, in Uedano's mind, it wasn't an invasion, but a failed attempt to expand territory.

This is also the consensus of the vast majority of people in island nations.

There is a very important record in the materials left by my great-grandfather.

He's seen a dragon!

It is located in the Changbai Mountains in the northern part of Daxia.

At that time, the war was nearing its end, military funds were stretched thin, and after plundering wealthy households no longer yielded much profit, his grandfather set his sights on ancient tombs.

After excavating many ancient tombs, they heard from a local "guide" that there was a "dragon tomb" deep in the Changbai Mountains.

The guide was a local, and the story of the Dragon Tomb had been passed down through generations of them.

My great-grandfather scoffed at the idea, but he took the news about the ancient tomb very seriously.

He suspected it might be the tomb of some important figure and dispatched an army to accompany them to investigate.

That army of a hundred men never returned!

He believed that the "guide" had betrayed him at the last minute, and in a fit of rage, he executed the entire family of the former guide.

He happened to be in a bad mood at that time and wanted to get some fresh air, so he led the entire regiment to explore the mountains.

"It was a bright, sunny day, but for some reason, the sky turned gloomy as soon as we entered the mountains..."

"When we arrived at the location marked on the map, there was already lightning and thunder in the sky. It was at that moment that I witnessed a scene I will never forget: a giant black dragon soared into the sky, snapping trees in half and killing or wounding soldiers wherever it passed..."

Thinking about the contents of the diary, Ueda clenched her fists involuntarily.

My great-grandfather escaped the calamity, but almost the entire regiment of soldiers was wiped out.

Upon returning, he intended to organize another investigation, but instead received the Emperor's letter of surrender.

Before leaving, he orchestrated several accidents, causing the few surviving soldiers who knew about the incident to meet with misfortune, and he took the map back to the island nation.

When he was young, his grandfather often told him about his great-grandfather's encounter with a dragon.

He initially thought it was a rumor, until a few days ago when he heard about the destruction of the US aircraft carrier, and then so many bizarre things happened in the Great Xia.

“The Great Xia is a vast and resource-rich land. Since there is a dragon tomb in Changbai Mountain, there may be others elsewhere!” Zhi Tianye’s eyes gleamed. “That white figure might just be a living dragon!”

“If we could hunt it down, or even capture it…” His eyes gleamed with burning ambition, “it would be best to bring the United States into the fray and have them take the lead!”

Island people admire strength, but deep down they believe in the subservient overthrowing the superior.

The ability to drag the Sam sitting on top of him down into the water is something that Yuta could not ask for more.

Even if it fails, there are still people stepping up to take the lead; this is called killing two birds with one stone.

After a moment's thought, he decided to consult with several officials he knew.

He certainly wouldn't reveal the Dragon Tomb in Changbai Mountain, but based on the various intelligence he had recently gathered, he believed he could persuade his allies.

The strange events in Jiangcheng were also reported to the United States.

Within the territory of Great Xia, the United States has always had many spies.

In the last incident where the aircraft carrier capsized, they initially did not determine whether it was related to Great Xia, and even suspected that India was involved.

But with Lei Yao's appearance, the matter has become clear.

The high-ranking military officials in the United States were well aware of Lei Yao's situation.

Without their permission, the USS Bald Eagle carrier strike group would not go to meet them.

This dying guy is suddenly jumping around again!

Although the United States' position as the superpower is not as secure as it once was, it is still the world's leading superpower.

Even though many of them are keen on making money, there are still many intelligent people in their think tank.

They pieced together a fairly complete picture of the information that Uedano could guess.

Even though this conclusion shocked many people, they decided to try to accept this bizarre reality.

“Let the islanders give it a try!” suggested a high-ranking official from the U.S. intelligence system.

"Will they agree?" a young man asked.

His question drew a burst of laughter.

Would they dare to disagree?

Chapter 89 Could it be that the Great Xia Dynasty really has dragons?

“Us?” Uedano pointed to his own nose.

He was in disbelief.

He was still thinking of using one wolf to devour another, and was encouraging the United States to deal with the possible divine dragon of Great Xia, but he didn't expect that this American would find him first.

"Your Prime Minister has already agreed to this matter; I'm just informing you in advance," Steven said, crossing his legs with a relaxed expression.

Upon hearing this, Ueda felt a chill run down his spine and cursed him as a traitor.

He tried to stall, saying, "The Eastern Dragon is, after all, a mythical creature. This matter needs to be considered carefully, until we have gathered enough intelligence..."

Before he could finish speaking, Steven interrupted, "Now is the time for you to gather intelligence!"

Ueda frowned.

Steven said impatiently, "Didn't I make myself clear earlier? Now you need to do everything in your power to obtain detailed information about the Duck Head Mountain base, which may have an Eastern dragon!"

“Infiltrating there will take some time,” Uedano said hesitantly. “At least…”

“Mr. Ueda, I’m not discussing this with you!” Steven said coldly. “Bribery, bribery, wiretapping, coercion, kidnapping—I don’t care what methods you use, I want results within a month!”

Ueda was secretly annoyed, but there was nothing he could do.

The hook-nosed man in front of him was a liaison officer for the Asian region of the United States' intelligence agency. His position was not high, but his identity was special, and he could not afford to offend him.

He didn't have the confidence to refuse.

Seeing his troubled expression, Steven softened his tone.

“Mr. Ueda, I heard that your second son is applying to Stanford?” he asked.

Ueda nodded, his expression unchanged, but he became wary inside.

“You know, our new president has never been fond of international students, so Representative Kevin’s letter of recommendation might not be effective,” Steven laughed. “But we can help. He’s a great guy and has a bright future ahead of him.”

Ueda said "thank you" stiffly.

"Your wife must have quite a few investments in our country, right?" Steven said. "You know, our president is a stock market genius; he can probably make your wife's returns several times over!"

Ueda remained silent.

"Your eldest son seems to be competing for a very important position, doesn't he?" Steven added. "We helped him, and even made him the hottest new star in island politics."

Ueda's expression shifted as she stared intently at Steven: "Is this what you mean?"

“No, this is the committee’s decision,” Steven smiled. “You must know the importance of a mythical creature. Whether it’s controlling it, destroying it, or winning it over, this matter is of utmost importance.”

He said sternly, "On this matter, I stand with you!"

"I will do my utmost to handle this matter well!" Uedano finally spoke.

He didn't trust this Sam, but he knew the other man was right about one thing.

That possible dragon is more important than ever before.

Compared to that, the nuclear weapons they've been trying to secretly develop are nothing!

If I can be the first to obtain its intelligence, I will surely become a hero of the empire!

If this matter can be handled well, he believes these Americans won't lie to him.

Who wouldn't want a reliable ally?

His predecessors gambled on national transportation, but he himself might not be able to!

……

"'Gyokusai' Plan?" Watanabe Ichijo was a little confused when he heard the news.

"As the person directly in charge of this matter, haven't you realized it yet?" Ueda said in a deep voice, "All this high technology is fake. The Great Xia Kingdom possesses a dragon from mythology!"

"Are you kidding me?" Watanabe asked suspiciously.

Uedano patiently analyzed each piece of information for him.

Combining information he himself was unaware of, Watanabe Ichijo finally pieced things together.

Could it be that the Great Xia Dynasty really had dragons?

“What do you mean?” he asked.

“We must obtain information about that dragon at all costs,” Uedano said, “and then decide whether to recruit it or slay it!”

Slaying a dragon?

Watanabe Ichijo felt that the other party was a bit arrogant.

If it really is a dragon from mythology, how could they possibly defeat it!
