Meanwhile, Rometheus in the Tower of Babel took off his earplugs, rolled off the bed, stretched, yawned, and then got dressed and went outside.

"Hey Ella, what are you doing? Why are you looking at Zero's photos?"

Upon arriving at the laboratory, Rometheus saw Ella, just like he had done before, comparing Zhang Hao's photo with [Zero].

"Hiss~ Actually, I really think these two people look alike, but is it really possible for such a coincidence? Oh right, Demulan just dropped two Dongfeng missiles on Reis's hometown, and you didn't attend the previous online meeting."

Rometheus only smiled faintly when he heard the beginning, but the more he listened, the more surprised he became. After hearing that he had missed another online meeting, "a little" cold sweat began to seep from Rometheus's forehead. It seemed that this was already the umpteenth time he had missed an online meeting.

"They're even using missiles? Why didn't you tell me about something so important right away? And what about that online meeting? Have you forgotten why it's been changed to an in-person meeting now?"

Rometheus was almost in tears. It was because he never attended the online meetings before, and he could never find anyone to attend, that the meetings had to be held in person.

"Ella, don't bother me when I'm sleeping next time. Even if the sky falls, don't disturb me!"

At this moment, Ella silently took out her phone to record a message and played a recording of what Rometheus had said to her before.

"But, but you even did something like an explosion..."

Ella silently turned on another recording:

"Let me tell you, unless the Tower of Babel is blown up, sleeping is the most important thing to me, okay?"

Rometheus silently shut his mouth and turned his head 45 degrees to look at the sky.

"Reis blew up the industrial area of ​​the space base, and Demulan is furious. He will personally lead a team to wipe out Reis tomorrow."

"Huh? Wait a minute, did I hear that right? That guy Rhys dares to bomb Demulan's territory?"

After seeing Ella nod silently, Rometheus couldn't help but sigh:

“I respect Reiss as a man. You know, Demulan has walked through the gates of hell once, and he still dares to provoke her like this. Tsk tsk tsk, he really doesn’t know what’s good for him.............. It looks like he’s about to die too.”

Chapter 205 Aid

Rometheus couldn't help but shudder at the thought that Reiss would be facing Demulan in a rage.

Rometheus: Huh? Wait a minute? They weren't hitting me, so why was I shaking just now?

"But GTI will probably make a move next, right? Aren't they always talking about peace and balance?"

After hearing Ella's words, Rometheus revealed the same disdainful smile as Demulan. He was joking, wasn't Hafk always taking on two opponents at once? And who doesn't know what GTI's true colors are like? Utterly ugly.

"Hehe, Ella, you underestimated Demulan and overestimated GTI. They might indeed pull some tricks tomorrow, but if they see that Demulan is really going to wipe out Reiss regardless of the consequences, they will definitely slink back and pretend they didn't see anything."

There's nothing we can do. In Hafk's eyes, the GTI is nothing more than a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong, and it likes to sneak up on you from the shadows.

"See? If nothing unexpected happens, tomorrow, after the rocket launch, will be the end of Reis."

. . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . .

Longbow Valley.

Faced with the impending apocalypse, Reese transformed into a head-scratching war god, frantically scratching his scalp while smoking a cigar.

"Damn it, this is so annoying. Ugh~ Is there any way to hold off Demulan? If I push all the people of Longbow Valley in front of me, will this crazy woman just open fire?"

At this moment, Reiss was very distressed. He couldn't find any help, and the armory he had placed in the Diamond Queen Hotel had been blown up. Fortunately, Reiss had previously set up an armory in Amiya Town, so he didn't have to surrender right now.

"Ring ring!"

Just then, the phone that Reis had tossed aside rang. Reis picked it up impatiently and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

"Damn it, is it that idiot again who got a new number and is bothering me?!"

Even so, Reese still answered the phone without hesitation:

"Hello, this is Reese."

"Heh, I know you're Rhys, the leader of Longbow Valley, right? I bet you're in a bit of trouble right now!"

The voice on the other end of the phone wasn't the same person who wanted to spend 100 million Haff coins to buy him as a lackey, but who could possibly know his current situation?

"Who are you? How did you know?"

Reis couldn't immediately determine the identity of the other party. After all, how could they know what was happening on their side in such a short time? Could they be Hafk's men again?

"Hehe, don't worry, I'm not one of Hafk's people. The reason I'm making this call to you is to give you a choice."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to have mind-reading abilities, immediately guessing what Reis was about to say, which made Reis even more vigilant.

"What choice? First, tell me who you are? Or who you represent?"

"Hehe, you don't need to know that much. I can only say that I can help you solve your immediate problem, but..."

Seeing that the other party had put it this way, Reis knew that if he agreed, he would have to pay a heavy price.

"What do you want? As long as it's within my budget, I'll accept it."

"Haha, not bad. I like talking to smart people. I can directly support you to become Asara's new emperor. But, as everyone knows, the principle of equivalent exchange applies. After you become Asara's new emperor, you will have to listen to us obediently."

"You want to cultivate a puppet emperor? Who exactly are you?"

Reis understood. They were using Asara's puppet emperor as bait to lure him in, but the organization with that kind of power was definitely not an ordinary one, or even a nation.

"Hmph, no rush, Mr. Reis. I'll tell you when you decide whether you need our help. You're a smart man, I know you'll know how to choose."

"Explain yourself first: do you really have the ability to stop that madman Demulan from attacking me while simultaneously making me the second emperor?"

Reis was still very suspicious of the other side. Their motives were quite obvious: to find a suitable puppet to replace him in controlling Asara. And now, with his home about to be blown up and almost wiped out by Demulan, he was the perfect candidate.

"You can trust my Mr. Reis. I'll say it again: do you want to accept our help? Once you accept our help, money, status, women, and power are all within your grasp, requiring only a 'tiny' price. What do you think?"

Rhys's breathing quickened immediately. The things the person on the other end of the phone spoke of were things he was currently fighting tooth and nail for, and all he was getting was becoming their puppet...

"I accept. Phew, now you can tell me your identities."

After thinking for two or three minutes, Reis wiped the sweat from his forehead, let out a long breath, and finally decided to accept the contract from the devil.

"Good! I knew you were a smart man, Reis. Don't worry, Demulan won't be able to beat you tomorrow. Now, as your business partner, I can also tell you that I send my greetings on behalf of the United States to you, the new King of Asara."

When Reis heard that it was actually the United States that had contacted him, he was extremely surprised. He knew that the United States would not normally care about a small country like Asara. However, when he heard the words "new king," Reis's greed was completely ignited.

Now that he had the support of the United States, it meant that becoming the new king of Asara would no longer be just a pipe dream. Thinking of this, Reis suddenly felt that selling Asara to the United States was not a problem at all, as long as he could live like an emperor here.

"You...you really represent the United States?"

"Oh, of course, my friend. Let me see, you still use HAF coins there, right? Tomorrow we'll give you three of our self-developed high-tech aircraft, along with three renovation teams, all top-notch masters. Don't be surprised if you see they're all Chinese; they're from China. They'll rebuild your Longbow Valley in the shortest possible time and upgrade the surrounding area as well. They'll also give you a black card with about 2 billion HAF coins on it. I wish us a pleasant cooperation in the future."

The words, delivered in rapid succession, left Reese rooted to the spot. This single phone call seemed to have completely altered his fate.

"I... I've become the emperor!"

Chapter 206 Can't Fight?

"Sister Xiaowen, why do we still need to protect that Reis? He clearly deserves to die. If he dies, I can get Uncle Said to take over such a large area of ​​land as Longbow Valley."

After being pulled back to the room by Mai Xiaowen, Zhang Hao still asked, puzzled, "Just how much power do the higher-ups at GTI have that they can directly make them deviate from their original intention of maintaining balance to help this guy, Reis, who has never done anything good?"

"Alright, alright, do you know that GTI is made up of various countries? So, in our Special Operations Unit, you can see that we come from all over the world."

"Um, Uncle Shenlan mentioned this to me before."

"Correspondingly, our superiors are naturally all over the world. When it comes to the interests of each country, disagreements usually arise. That's why GTI's senior management likes to hold meetings all the time. But calling them meetings is more like discussing how to divide up resources."

At this moment, Zhang Hao also recalled what Shen Lan had told him before about why he hadn't let him join GTI. Combining this with what Mai Xiaowen had just said, he began to understand the significance of Shen Lan's actions.

"Xiaowen, if the higher-ups give you unreasonable tasks, will you still have to complete them?"

Mai Xiaowen shrugged and said helplessly:

"Of course! Remember when we were stealing the Mandel Brick? We stole it entirely for that high-ranking official, okay? Do you think stealing the Mandel Brick had anything to do with maintaining the balance between Asara and Hafk...? Well, you know what? If we had actually gotten it, we might have faced Hafk's wrath. It's a kind of balance, I guess!"

"No wonder Uncle Deep Blue didn't let me join GTI..."

"Alright, alright, don't think about it so much. Our duty is to follow orders. We don't need to think about anything else. Come on, let's get in."

“No, I don’t think it should be like this. I promised Uncle Said that I would work with him to liberate Asara and return this land to the people of Asara.”

Mai Xiaowen: Ah Ba Ah Ba, what's wrong with Xiao Hao Hao? How come his brain suddenly woke up? Did he secretly watch Awakening Era?

"Xiaowen, you go have fun by yourself. I'm going back to think about it."

After saying that, Zhang Hao went straight out and returned to his room, leaving a bewildered Mai Xiaowen alone in front of the computer, completely dumbfounded.

. . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . .

At the space base, due to the importance she placed on this matter, Demulan immediately started taking drugs to alleviate her pain. After putting the polished Polaris into her pocket, she stared intently at the direction of Longbow Valley.

"Ries, I want to see who else can save you."

Just after Demurean finished showing off, her phone rang. When she picked it up, she was shocked to see that it was Jacob Hafk, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Hafk Group.

Desmoulins hadn't been in contact with Jacob for a long time; now Richard was the one informing them. Seeing that it was Jacob calling, Desmoulins quickly answered the phone.

"Hey, Mr. Jacob, is there something you need me to do?"

A gentle voice from a middle-aged man came from the other end of the phone:

"No, no, no, I've been following everything you've been doing lately, Demulan. You've done an excellent job, and I'm very glad I entrusted the space base to your care. But that's not why I'm here this time."

When Demulan heard that it wasn't about work, he began to wonder if he had overlooked something else.

"It's like this, Demulan. Regarding Reis bombing our space base's industrial area today, causing numerous casualties and property damage, your secretary also sent me an email about it. I actually strongly support you seeking revenge against Reis, but... some external factors have gotten involved."

Upon hearing this, Demulan's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Reis's background was not just that of a leader under Youssef. But if they could directly contact the president of their Hafk Group, was it really necessary for them to personally bomb one of their industrial zones?

“But Mr. Jacob, Reis has offended us Hafk many times. Not long ago, he even stole our Mandel bricks…”

Demurean wanted to say more, but she knew that even Jacob had come to see her personally, so her plans for tomorrow were probably doomed.

De Moulin: My family doesn't understand. I've been preparing for this for ages, and basically everyone in Assara knows I'm going to take down Reis. But guess what? Hehe, my boss won't let me kill him.

"Demulan, just do me a favor. Of course, I promised him I wouldn't kill him. As for what happens if he gets shot, that's beyond my control. I think you'll have your own ideas."

Jacob chuckled and hung up the phone, leaving Demoulan to begin devising torture methods.

"As long as you don't die, that's all that matters? Fine, Rhys, I'll see how many bullets your ass can hold tomorrow?"

Reese: No, are you a devil? Why are you all so obsessed with my butt? Are you trying to force me to wear iron underwear?
