Not long after, Said brought the nameless group to Reis's Diamond Queen Hotel. Seeing Reis lying on the sofa in his office wearing a mask, Said said:

"Reis, I've brought some men. So, what do you say? Give me the card first, or shall we get to work?"

Upon hearing the news, Reis turned around and looked over. After seeing Said and the people behind him, Reis grinned and said:

"Oh, my dear brother Said, I've finally been waiting for you guys to come! Look at that damned Demulan, she's a complete beast! Seeing how strong our forces are, she secretly sent men to set the mountain on fire right here! Look at all this smoke..."

Said watched calmly as Reis, the actor, spouted nonsense in front of him. Of course, if Said hadn't learned from Zhang Hao that Reis was the culprit behind the arson, Said might have actually believed that Demulan and his group had set the fire, given Reis's acting skills.

"Alright, enough said. Let's put Demulan's matter aside for now and deal with the immediate issues first."

Said also stopped Reese from complaining. How could this guy be so good at making up stories? Judging from this, he wouldn't be finished anytime soon.

After being interrupted by Said, Reiss was not angry. He just smiled and took out a small gold card from his pocket and handed it to Said.

"Hey brother, I know you're very reliable. I'm entrusting this card to you with peace of mind. If you really manage to rescue Prince Asara, and he doesn't like living in your dam, he can stay at my Diamond Queen Hotel for a while."

When Said saw Reis take out the card, he reached out and took it from him, then asked:

"Alright, how do you plan to put out this fire? You know, it's gotten to this point, it's impossible to put it out with just water."

After hearing Said's question, Reese clapped his hands, and then Barton, with a bitter face, came in again with the map of Longbow Valley.

"Let Patton handle the firefighting and all that. I've already handed it all over to him. Come on, Patton, show us your talent."

Patton: Hey, more money, more money! Where else can you find such a versatile assistant as me?

Chapter 413 Again?

Now let's turn our attention to Demulan, who has returned to her office and is frowning as she looks at the tactical plans she prepared earlier on her computer screen.

Looking at the rather detailed battle plan he had made, Demulan leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and began to recall what had happened in Longbow Valley.

"Damn it, how dare Reis? Didn't he consider how his Longbow Valley would end up?"

Even now that they're back at the space base, Demulan still can't understand Reis's bizarre thought process. No normal person would think of such a radical approach.

But Reiss did it, and she did stop her, which was the most upsetting thing for Demulan, because Demulan really liked to plan ahead and keep the situation on the battlefield firmly in her hands.

However, this time, Reiss completely disrupted her previous plans. Demulan also admitted that Reiss's act of setting the mountain on fire caught her completely off guard, to the point that even she was unusually flustered on the battlefield for a while.

"Ms. Demurean... are you really alright?"

At this moment, Mary knocked on the office door and came in. Seeing that Demulan was still in the same state, Mary asked worriedly:

"Huh? It's nothing, it's nothing. I... I just can't quite keep up with Reis's thought process. The casualty statistics are out?"

Seeing Mary enter, Demulan rubbed his temples, opened his eyes, and asked.

"Yes, the casualty statistics have been released. Fortunately, everyone acted according to your previous arrangements, Ms. Demulan, so the results are quite impressive."

“Is it considerable? Perhaps. Go and arrange for the wounded and dead Hafk soldiers according to the previous standards. Compensate those who deserve it, and also, make sure these people don’t think that this is all over.”

As Demulan spoke, a murderous intent gradually surfaced in his eyes.

"Make sure these people are ready at any time. Once they have reorganized, we will go to Longbow Valley to launch the second war."

When Mary heard that Desmoulins was preparing to launch a second war in the near future, she nodded solemnly, but still said with concern:

"Ms. Demulan, do you think Reiss is also likely anticipating our second offensive? Are we really just going to...?"

Before Mary could finish speaking, Demulan waved his hand again to interrupt her, saying:

“Mary, think about it, what will Reis’s first reaction be after he sees us retreating?”

After thinking for a moment, Mary answered the question:

"It's definitely about putting out the fire, after all, I don't want to let this already difficult-to-control wildfire continue to burn."

Demoulan nodded after listening:

“That’s right. Even if Reis is a complete idiot, his first reaction will definitely be to send his soldiers to put out the fire. But given the current situation, if they want to control the fire, their energy will be greatly depleted. Even if they want to replicate this plan again, there simply won’t be enough time.”

After listening to what Demulan said, Mary looked like she understood. It seemed that Ms. Demulan was planning to attack those who were physically exhausted. Now, Hafk could let his soldiers rest and prepare for the next attack.

However, the situation is different for Reis. After dealing with the wildfires there, they have to wait for the smoke to clear. Even if all the soldiers on Reis's side were superhuman, they couldn't withstand such strain. And what if they had to wait for Hafk's next attack...?

Mary: As expected of Ms. Desmoulins, she is so decisive. It seems I still have a lot to learn from her, and I must work even harder.

“Yes, Ms. Demouran, I’ll get right on it.”

After speaking, Mary turned and left Demulan's office to begin the tasks that Demulan had assigned her. There was bound to be another tough battle ahead, and as the person in charge of logistics, she had to do these things well!

After seeing Mary leave, Demulan sighed again and then turned on his computer screen, which displayed a message sent 10 minutes earlier.

Gherros: The matter is settled, and I'm preparing to return to Tidal Prison.

"They're back? Then they should be able to spare someone over there, right...?"

Demulan murmured, then took out his phone and dialed a number.

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

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

"Hey, are you that excited? It's just going out on a mission. If you had a tail, you'd be wagging it all the way to the sky, you know?"

At this moment, Xiao Li was looking at Claire, who was sitting across from him with a speechless expression. After receiving a phone call from someone outside, Claire started shouting and yelling in the office as if she had taken stimulants, successfully waking Xiao Li up from his nap at his desk.

"Oh my god, Li, you don't know this? This call came from Ms. Demulan! I thought she had forgotten about me! You know, I'm going crazy staying in this Tidal Prison every day!"

Xiao Li was slightly surprised to hear that it was Demoulins calling, then said with a helpless expression:

"But didn't you just say that Ms. Demulan only asked you to go out to carry out a mission? You'll be back after you finish this job, so why are you getting so worked up?"

Claire strongly disagreed with this statement and immediately said:

"Oh, Xiao Li, this is something you homebody wouldn't understand. You know, right now, I'd do any mission as long as I can get out, okay? It's a big mission, after all. It's better than me still being here guarding the prison. At least I can finally get some fresh air."

Chapter 414 New Plan

Xiao Li: Hmm... I really don't understand, but looking at your current state... it seems similar to Sun Wukong in Chinese mythology who has just been released from under the Five Elements Mountain, both of you are about to go crazy from being cooped up.

"Alright, alright, congratulations on getting some fresh air. Remember to bring me back a few books next time you come back. I've almost finished reading all the books you brought this time, and I'm going to get bored again. Oh, by the way, did Ms. Desmulan tell you how long you'll be gone this time?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Li quickly asked, "Although Claire can be a bit noisy at times, wouldn't her life here become boring again without her?"

Compared to the loneliness she felt before, Xiao Li suddenly realized that having such a cheerful person by her side wasn't so bad, even if they were a bit noisy.

"I don't know, but they should be back soon after finishing their mission. Let's not think about those headaches for now, and instead think about how to have some fun while we're out!"

Claire: Hey, I'll have to go find Xiao Hao and Luna then. It's rare for them to release me from this prison. If they hadn't let me out, I feel like I wouldn't have been able to stand it and would have asked Ms. Demulan for permission to come out and get some fresh air.

"Alright, I'm not going to chat with you anymore. I need to pack my things. Oh dear, Ms. Demurean finally remembered me."

Claire waved to Li, then turned to go back to her room to pack her things for the space base.

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

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

Meanwhile, at the Special Operations Department, Deep Blue truthfully reported what had happened during the operation to his superiors, and then revealed that the real culprit behind the wildfire was actually Reis.

"Hmm, I think the next time Demulan and his group launch an attack on Reis and his group, we can choose to go to the space base that she is not guarding and get that access card. After all... if Demulan stays in that space base, it will be very difficult for us to obtain this card."

After Shen Lan finished speaking, he quietly waited for the reply from the other end of the phone. Given that they would take the initiative to ask them to try to end the battle between the two sides, Shen Lan began to feel that something was wrong.

You should know that when you were in Asara before, there was always friction between Reis and the Hafk Group. But why is it that recently, he could clearly feel that several people in the upper echelons have become quite concerned about Reis's situation, and this time they have actually stepped forward to try to mediate?

This successfully aroused some suspicion in Deep Blue, but they couldn't quite put their finger on what was strange about it. After all, the higher-ups were best at finding a suitable reason for their actions, such as ensuring the safety of the people in Asara. Deep Blue was almost immune to such excuses by now.

After waiting for a while, Deep Blue responded.

“Alexei, we will hold a meeting to discuss what you said. This is a very rare opportunity, just as you said. We will contact you as soon as we have finished our discussion.”

Shen Lan hung up the phone immediately after hearing this. Meetings again? Ever since the major reshuffle a few years ago, the abilities of these new executives have become increasingly inadequate. He really didn't know what the point of holding these high-level meetings every day was. If he were still at GTI headquarters, he would definitely slam the heads of these executives onto the table and question them about whether they still needed to hold meetings.

Deep Blue: Oh dear, I'm getting old. I still need to set a good example for Xiao Hao. As for my previous behavior... I'll have Zoya do it for me. Anyway, Xiao Hao already knows about her violent side.

Zoya: Old Deng, you...................This is a blatant slander against me. In front of Xiao Hao, I am clearly a gentle and intellectual older sister, okay? I am not a violent maniac. Even if I really am, it is because you taught me to be one. The problem still lies with you, okay?

Shenlan looked at the black screen of her phone, then took out her laptop and opened the map of the space base that Luna and Uluru had drawn together before, and began to think about how to act when the time came.

As for those high-level executives who said they were going to a meeting to discuss things, Shen Lan was too lazy to even bother with them. He, Shen Lan, had already spoken. Asking you before was a favor to you. What he just said was not intended to be discussed with these high-level executives. What he just said was a notification.

Deep Blue: If you really don't know what's good for you, I'll let you experience what it's like to dig potatoes in Siberia.

Just as Deep Blue was beginning to formulate plans to go to the space base, his door was knocked on.

"Uncle Shenlan, may I come in?"

Upon hearing that it was Zhang Hao, Shen Lan quickly got up and went to the door to open it for him. After seeing Zhang Hao, Shen Lan asked with some confusion:

"What's wrong, Xiao Hao? Did someone bully you again? Was it Wei Long and Roy? Wait a minute, I'll go and teach those two a lesson for you later."

Weilong/Roy: No? What kind of talk is this? Why do you say this as soon as Xiaohao comes to you? Before, when we were almost going to AFK because of Zoya's attacks, you didn't even acknowledge us. Deep Blue Instructor, I didn't expect you to be like this too, sob sob. (;'??Д??`)

Upon hearing Shen Lan's words, Zhang Hao quickly waved his hand. How did Uncle Shen Lan connect these two people? Could it be that he had been tattled on too many times?

"Uncle Deep Blue, didn't we say we were going to get a card from Reis to prove our identity? Uncle Said just told me that he's already gotten the card for us from Reis."

Chapter 415 Thank him for me

"what?!"

Deep Blue was taken aback by these words and quickly asked:

"Wait a minute, Xiao Hao, could you please say it again? I don't think I heard you clearly just now."

Seeing this, Zhang Hao repeated what he had just said. After hearing it this time, Shen Lan felt a little confused. This... this was directly obtained by Said?

Deep Blue: How is that possible! Even if Said and Reis are partners, this card is still extremely important no matter how you look at it. How could it just be given to Said like that? Has Reis been driven mad by all that smoke?

Said: Bah! What do you mean by giving it to me directly? This was clearly something I painstakingly obtained from Reis using my brilliant mind and unparalleled eloquence. Besides, didn't I send Nameless with a team to help that damned Reis put out the fire?

Shenlan had previously thought that Zhang Hao was joking when he said that Said was going to try to get the card from Reis. After all, Reis wasn't stupid, and he certainly wouldn't give the card to Said unless there was a reason. Besides, Said didn't seem to have any intention of getting the card at all.

So when Deep Blue learned that Said had actually gotten the card that proved his identity so easily from Reiss, Deep Blue could only think that Said was probably just a lucky fool, like Wei Long, whose luck was probably maxed out.

"In that case, you've done us a great favor. Now, all we need to do is find out when Demulan will launch a second attack on Longbow Valley in Reiss. Then we can take advantage of the space base's lack of manpower to sneak in and take the card."

Shen Lan patted Zhang Hao's head as he spoke. In terms of relationships in the Asara region, it really is Xiao Hao. If you think about it carefully, Xiao Hao can be said to have connections in all three regions.
