Chapter 270 Are they Layla's bosses?!
"Dong dong dong."

As Leila was preparing to report on the operation via video conference with her superiors, there was a sudden knock on the door, which immediately put her on alert.

Only after seeing the person clearly through the peephole did they slowly breathe a sigh of relief and welcome them in.

"District Chief Huo, is there something you need from me?"

She had seen Huo An, who had transformed into a Kunpeng, slip away silently, and knew that he did not want to reveal his identity, so she did not ask any further questions.

However, she didn't expect that Huo An would come to find her as soon as he returned. Was he afraid that she would reveal the matter about Liang He?
"Would it be convenient for us to chat?"

Together? With whom?

Leila was stunned for a moment, then looked at Hoan as if she suddenly realized something.

"You want to explain Liang He's situation to them personally?"

The "they" she was referring to were, of course, her superiors.

However, Huo An shook his head decisively and pointed upwards with his hand in an ambiguous manner.

"upstairs?"

Isn't upstairs his room with Liang He and the president?
Could it be that he wanted to discuss Liang He's matter with Chairman Lucas?
"You seem to have forgotten your boss."

Seeing that Lyra hadn't figured out the key point, Hoan sighed helplessly and gently reminded her.

Upon hearing this, Leila was a bit bewildered, her mind a complete mess.

She was ordered to lead the Federation army to Skalan for rescue, so how could she possibly have a superior here?
and many more? !
Your immediate supervisor?

It seems she really does have one!
"It's Yuan..."

"follow me."

Huo An didn't let Leila finish speaking. Instead, he took her back to his floor and knocked on Liang He's door.

Seeing this, there was nothing Leila didn't understand.

Sure enough, it was that one.

"marshal!"

When Lyra was promoted to Federal Colonel, Cedriel had already entered the evolutionary stage and was being protected on Tianyao Star.

Therefore, she never had the chance to witness the majesty of the Federal Marshal in person; all she could think of were the descriptions of his various heroic deeds by his comrades and colleagues.

Unexpectedly, she was fortunate enough to become the first of his subordinates to meet him after he passed through the evolution period!
"Come in."

Compared to Leila's overwhelming excitement, Cedriel, now in human form, was no longer the silly, sweet tiger she once was.

He was a dignified and upright soldier, revered by the citizens of the Federation as a war god, a deity who protects the interstellar space.

"Yes!"

Leila instinctively stood at attention and saluted, then strode into the room with the steps of a regular soldier.

It might be better to ignore the fact that she moves her hands and feet the same way.

"Don't be nervous."

Hoan kindly comforted Leila and asked her to sit down on a chair nearby.

Then he looked at Cedril.

This was actually his first time meeting Cedril's human form.

"Marshal Cedril, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Unlike the big tiger who usually clung to Liang He and acted spoiled towards her, Cedriel himself was more like a king who conquered the stars.

Unlike Cyril the Platinum Lion's light golden hair, Cedric's hair is more of a golden brown.

His superior features were like a sculpture of a god, and his amber-gold eyes were not the round cat eyes of the past, but were more deep and long.

His sharp military uniform made his tall and slender figure appear even more aloof, with only his deliberately hidden little tiger teeth occasionally revealing his true nature.

"Huo An, you are—very good."

Cedril's feelings towards Huo An were somewhat complicated. On one hand, Huo An had witnessed all sorts of embarrassing moments he had made as the King Tiger of Ink Gold, and to some extent, 'killing him to silence him' was sufficient. On the other hand, if it weren't for Huo An, he might not have met Liang He, much less have spent every day and night with her, making the originally difficult evolution period pass easily, and even making him reluctant to leave.

"Marshal, you flatter me."

Faced with the overwhelming pressure from the Federal Marshal, Huo An responded calmly and unhurriedly.

He knew who Cedril cared about most and who he was most interested in, and he could give him the information he wanted most.

"Aren't you going to ask the other one to come out?"

Huo An glanced meaningfully at Liang He's bedroom, while Leila, still dazed, curiously followed his gaze.

"The other one? Who is it?"

How could she not know that besides the marshal, there were other important figures on this warship?

No, how could Huo An, the head of a nature reserve, know more than her?!

"It seems that District Chief Huo discovered me a long time ago."

Knowing that he could no longer be a 'mastermind behind the scenes,' the bedroom door was slowly opened, and a patch of azure blue came into view.

She had long, curly, pale blue hair, similar to a wolf's tail, just like Lan Zhuo. Her features were perfect, especially her eagle eyes, which were deep, peaceful, and serene, yet possessed an undeniable sharpness.

Unlike Cedril's crisp military uniform, his uniform was more refined, with a long military-style trench coat over his jacket. When the wind blew, his long hair and trench coat flew together, exuding a sense of freedom and elegance.

The specially made falcon badge on his chest was enough to identify him.

"Lord Langdon!"

The moment she saw who it was, Lyra, who had been on guard, jumped up from her chair, her emotions, which she had finally managed to calm down, were stirred up again.

First Commander on the Battlefield, Landon!

Lyra truly hadn't expected to meet two such powerful figures at the same time. Had Lord Landon also passed the evolutionary stage?!
"Hello, Laila."

Compared to the imposing Cedril, Langton appeared much more approachable.

He gave a brief greeting, then casually sat down next to Cedril, gesturing for Leila to sit down as well.

"The main reason I invited you two here today is to learn about Liang He's situation."

Having heard that Leila and the others had returned, they dressed up specially to pick up Liang He and tell her the truth.

Instead, she received news that she had been taken away by the rebels.

At first, he and Cedril were tense, angry, and worried... wishing they could rush to save the person immediately.

But when they calmed down and recalled the scenes with Liang He, and the fighting prowess she displayed when facing the rebels while fighting alongside her, they felt that something was amiss.

So after discovering Huo An's whereabouts, they wanted to find him and ask him what was going on.

“Cedril and I have completed the procedures and taken over all matters concerning Lianghe. You only need to report directly to us.”

The reason for bringing Leila along was simply to prevent her from saying anything inappropriate to the federal higher-ups, which could be detrimental to Liang He.

His and Cedril's combined power far exceeded that of the sum of their individual strengths; they took over all of Liang He's affairs, and no one dared to utter a word against it.

"understand!"

With Langton's words, Lyra was clearly more at ease.

As long as there are no problems with the procedures, she is naturally more willing to cooperate with the two big shots.

Moreover, she had always admired Liang He, and given how much these two powerful figures cared about Liang He, Laila was even more confident in rescuing her.

"Okay, let's go over what happened first."

Leila and Hoan were both eyewitnesses to the whole incident. Of course, Hoan knew more information than Leila, so he spoke up as the latter.

When Lyra revealed that Rick had exposed his identity as a rebel spy, Liang He's reaction immediately made Landon realize that she might have already suspected it.

"District Chief Huo, did she... plan all of this all along?"

Suddenly I realized that when describing Cedric and Langton's appearance, I couldn't capture at all how handsome, cool, and dashing they were in my mind. *sobs* You'll have to use your imaginations, my darlings, I tried my best…
