Global Exploration: Starting from Decrypting Chernobyl

190: Kneel down and surrender! The dust has settled!“…”

“Your Excellency Zhao Yulong…”

Seeing Wu Tian’s face with a faint, mocking smile, Shelter’s expression instantly turned a bit ugly.

He turned his head to glance at Zhao Yulong on the hillside.

Shelter suppressed the anger in his heart, took the loudspeaker, and loudly asked the latter,

“What do you mean by this?”

“A scholar can be killed, but not humiliated!”

“I am a general, and those behind me are soldiers!”

“If we are to surrender…”

“We will surrender to you honorably!”

“Wu Tian?”

Shelter curled his lip.

“What is he?”

“Is he even worthy of accepting my surrender?”

“…”

As Shelter’s voice, full of disdain and contempt, fell, the entire battlefield quickly fell silent. Except for the people from Dragon Country, everyone looked at Wu Tian with a playful expression.

At such an important moment.

In such a globally watched situation!

They wanted to see… how Wu Tian would resolve this humiliation from the supreme commander of the Four-Nation Alliance!

If he couldn’t resolve it!

Heh heh… they thought… it would be quite enjoyable to see Wu Tian’s embarrassed appearance after being humiliated!

“…”

“Oh?”

Facing Shelter’s scorn, and the contemptuous expressions of nearly fifty thousand Four-Nation Alliance soldiers around him, who were ready to watch him make a fool of himself, Wu Tian’s expression not only showed no displeasure.

Instead, he smiled slightly.

He turned around and looked at General Shelte, saying,

“Shelter, you just asked who I, Wu Tian, am?”

“And you think I’m nothing?”

“Not worthy of your surrender?”

“Is that right?”

“…”

“Heh heh…”

“Nonsense!”

It was fine when Wu Tian wasn’t speaking to Shelter, but as soon as he spoke to him, the latter instantly raised his head proudly, and without even turning around, he said to Wu Tian in an arrogant tone,

“However…”

“I think what you said was very good!”

“You are truly nothing!”

“If it weren’t for Dragon Country, you wouldn’t even have the chance to speak to me right now!”

“Kid!”

Shelter smiled coldly.

“If you know what’s good for you, scram!”

“Don’t make me embarrass you!”

“If you can’t back down then, that would be losing face in front of the whole world!”

“…”

“Oh!”

Wu Tian looked at Shelter, nodding very seriously, and with an expression of earnest listening and analysis, he said to the latter,

“You mean, I’m nothing without Dragon Country as my backing, right?”

“My understanding should be correct, no?”

“…”

“Correct!”

Shelter nodded bluntly.

“Without Dragon Country backing you, you are just a small Host for global exploration!”

“Would you have the chance to step onto such a world stage?”

“Would you still have the chance to have a dialogue with me?”

“Heh heh…”

“Kid!”

The disdain on Shelter’s lips grew stronger.

“Don’t overestimate yourself too much!”

“Without Dragon Country, you are…”

“Just a clown!”

“…”

“Alright!”

Wu Tian smiled and nodded, then lifted his foot and walked towards Shelter.

“Brother Tian!”

“Boss…”

“Wu Tian?”

“Little friend Wu Tian?!”

“…”

Seeing Wu Tian smile slightly and slowly walk towards Shelter in the distance, instantly!

Everyone standing beside him gasped in low voices.

“What are you doing?”

“That’s the enemy’s camp!”

“Little friend Wu Tian…”

“What exactly are you trying to do?”

“…”

“Alas!”

Listening to the worried voices around him, Wu Tian smiled slightly, raised his hand, and waved it gently at the crowd behind him.

He said lightly,

“No need to worry.”

“I’m just…”

“Going to discuss with His Excellency Shelter what we both are, once we strip away the backing behind us.”

“…”

Rustle… As he spoke.

Wu Tian had already strolled, under the somewhat puzzled and slightly wary gazes of the Four-Nation Alliance soldiers, and arrived in front of Shelter.

“Hey!”

Wu Tian smiled coldly.

Grinning, he raised his head towards Shelter.

“Shelter, right?”

“If I haven’t misunderstood, you just admitted that I am nothing without Dragon Country, then…”

“Similarly, I have a question for you too!”

“Your Excellency Shelter!”

Wu Tian smiled slightly at the latter.

“Without the country behind you…”

“You!”

“What are you, then?”

“…”

As Wu Tian’s words fell, the entire battlefield became even more silent. If one were to describe it with a single word, it would be ’pin-drop silence’!

Everyone stared at Wu Tian with wide eyes.

They were puzzled!

They were confused!

They even nervously swallowed their saliva!

“He’s crazy!”

“This man must be crazy!”

“How dare he!”

“How dare he provoke a general commanding fifty thousand troops face-to-face like that!”

“Damn it!”

“Is this Dragon Country citizen looking for death?”

“Although his death isn’t important, it might bring some changes to the upcoming battle!”

“Damn it!”

“Isn’t it good to be alive?”

“Must he seek death?”

“…”

The soldiers of the Four-Nation Alliance around Shelter and Wu Tian began to whisper!

This… how much courage did it take to ask such a question directly in front of Shelter!

It was as if Shelter wanted to slap Wu Tian.

But unexpectedly, he was slapped back by Wu Tian!

And… this slap was exceptionally loud!

“…”

After a long while.

Shelter slowly closed his slightly agape mouth, which had opened in surprise. After carefully examining Wu Tian, he slowly gave the latter a thumbs-up.

“Kid, you’ve got guts!”

However… Shelter’s facial expression became unusually ferocious. Looking at Wu Tian, who was within arm’s reach, he said to him sinisterly,

“Kid!”

“What am I?”

“I’ve fought in countless campaigns for thirty years, killed countless enemies, achieved countless merits, and am covered in medals, finally earning this title of General today!”

“Although it was bestowed by the country!”

“It was also something I fought for in blood and fire!”

“Compared to me!”

“You…”

“Are truly nothing!”

“Do you understand?”

Shelter directly reached out and poked Wu Tian’s chest.

Poking him repeatedly.

His face was full of ferocity and arrogance.

Suddenly!

“Snap!”

In front of everyone, Wu Tian expressionlessly grabbed Shelter’s finger.

He looked at the latter indifferently and said,

“You’re right.”

“You came out of battles of blood and fire.”

“But so what?”

“An old good-for-nothing like you…”

“Heh heh!”

Wu Tian scoffed disdainfully.

His right hand, gripping Shelter’s finger, slowly began to exert force. The immense power instantly turned Shelter’s finger purplish-blue.

“Damn it!”

“My finger!”

“Bastard!”

“Let go!”

“Let go of me!”

Shelter’s expression changed dramatically!

He lifted his foot and delivered a powerful roundhouse kick towards Wu Tian!

“Bang!”

Wu Tian scoffed disdainfully.

He lifted his leg, striking first despite moving later, and delivered a roundhouse kick towards Shelter’s incoming right foot, which whistled through the air, hitting it hard!

Bang!

Crack!

A crisp snap!

“Ah!”

Shelter instantly let out a scream, staggering a few steps unsteadily, yet his finger was still firmly gripped by Wu Tian.

He finally regained his balance with great difficulty.

His trembling, fractured right leg lightly supported him on the ground, and he looked at Wu Tian with chilling eyes.

“Clatter!”

“Clatter!”

“What the hell are you doing?”

“Let go!”

“Kneel and hold your head, or we’ll shoot you!”

“Let go!”

“Do you believe I’ll blow your head off right now?”

“…”

The instant Shelter let out a scream, his five loyal guards immediately drew their pistols from their waists, aiming them at Wu Tian’s head and threatening him loudly.

“Heh heh…”

Wu Tian showed no fear.

Instead, he smiled slightly.

He turned his head towards Zhao Yulong on the left mountain.

He said loudly,

“General Zhao.”

“Someone is pointing a gun at my head, saying they’ll blow my head off!”

“What do you think should be done about this?”

“…”

“Oh?”

As Wu Tian’s words fell.

General Zhao Yulong on the hillside immediately smiled slightly, letting out a questioning sound. Then, he deliberately placed the megaphone to his mouth and asked a nearby artilleryman,

“Little Sun!”

“I remember we still have over a hundred missiles, right!”

“Alright!”

“Aim all of them at these Alliance forces!”

“Yes!”

Little Sun immediately nodded.

He then shouted loudly into the black walkie-talkie in his hand,

“Attention all units!”

“All vehicles turn around, recalculate attack trajectories, missiles enter standby, aim at the Four-Nation Alliance forces below.”

“Ready to fire at any moment!”

“…”

Buzzing… As Little Sun’s voice fell, Dragon Country’s army acted immediately. In just a few seconds, all missile launch vehicles turned around and raised their missile launchers.

They aimed at the Four-Nation Alliance forces below the hillside.

Then… after all this was done, Zhao Yulong smiled slightly.

He smiled and said to the five guards pointing guns at Wu Tian at the foot of the mountain,

“Go ahead!”

“Quick!”

“Kill Wu Tian!”

“Heh heh…”

“I was just worried I wouldn’t have a chance to annihilate all you damn ragtag troops!”

“Quick!”

“Do it!”

Zhao Yulong’s eyes flashed with chilling cold light. He looked disdainfully at all the high-ranking commanders, including Shelter, and all the Four-Nation Alliance soldiers, shouting loudly,

“Don’t you dare make me look down on you!”

“Do now what you said you would do earlier!”

“Come on!”

“Shoot Wu Tian in the head!”

“…”

“Heh heh…”

Looking at the five guards whose eyes were filled with hesitation and growing fear, Wu Tian smiled slightly.

“What’s wrong?”

“Hurry up!”

“Blow my dog’s head off, there are no jokes in the military!”

“This is in front of the whole world!”

“Friends!”

“You wouldn’t just be all talk, would you?”

“If that’s the case…”

Looking at the nameless guards holding their guns, caught in a dilemma, Wu Tian smiled coldly. His right hand, gripping Shelter’s finger, suddenly exerted force!

Crack!

A crisp snap!

Shelter’s right index finger instantly broke under Wu Tian’s immense force!

The grayish-white bone instantly pierced through the flesh, and crimson blood soaked his sleeve, flowing down Shelter’s palm!

It soaked the golden threads on his sleeve, which represented his extremely noble status.

The General, who was high and mighty just a moment ago!

Now… was in a pathetic and miserable state!

“…”

“Ah!”

“My finger!”

“Wu Tian…”

“Wu Tian!”

Shelter’s head was covered in a dense layer of cold sweat. He endured the pain and shouted loudly at Wu Tian,

“You’re just a good-for-nothing who is nothing without Dragon Country!”

“Look at you now!”

“Aren’t you still relying on Dragon Country to show off your power?”

“Hm?”

“If you have the guts, don’t rely on Dragon Country to help you!”

“Good-for-nothing!”

“Good-for-nothing… Ah!”

While he was still shouting loudly, another finger on the same hand of Shelter was twisted off by Wu Tian without even blinking an eye!

The pale bone pierced through the flesh, exceptionally bloody and terrifying!

“Your Excellency Shelter, aren’t you talking nonsense?”

Wu Tian smiled coldly.

“Let me clarify for you, alright!”

“You said that without external help, you were once a great general who had experienced the crucible of blood and fire.”

“Of course, I wouldn’t accept that!”

“So, I naturally showed you a look of disdain and made a gesture of contempt.”

“Who knew you couldn’t help but point fingers at me.”

“Hmph!”

Wu Tian grinned.

“Do you think I could tolerate that?”

“I immediately grabbed your finger, wanting to break it!”

“You couldn’t tolerate that either, could you?”

“You just wanted to kick me!”

“But because you’re too useless, you got your bone fractured by a casual kick from me.”

“Then your subordinates drew their guns!”

“Then…”

Wu Tian raised his head in the direction of Zhao Yulong and continued,

“Only then did our Dragon Country take action and threaten you!”

“Truth be told…”

“You were the first to use other people’s strength, weren’t you?”

“How did it become, when it comes to you…”

Crack!

Wu Tian broke another of Shelter’s fingers!

“It became me relying on external forces?”

“Good-for-nothing?!”

“…”

“Ah…”

“My finger!”

“You…”

“Don’t squeeze anymore!”

“Kill him!”

Shelter looked at his bloody right hand and screamed at Wu Tian,

“Kill him!”

Shelter’s eyes were bloodshot.

Having lost his reason, he immediately shouted loudly at the five guards behind him,

“Shoot!”

“Shoot him!”

“If you shoot, I will bear all the consequences!”

“Don’t worry!”

“They…”

“Their Dragon Country wouldn’t dare to launch missiles!”

“Shoot!”

“Kill him!”

“Go on and kill him!”

“…”

However… in the entire battlefield, apart from Shelter’s shouts, there was no other sound.

No one paid attention to him!

No one responded to him!

Even the five guards behind him, who were pointing their guns at Wu Tian’s head, after a moment of hesitation, dejectedly lowered their guns.

They said to General Shelte,

“General…”

“We cannot do this.”

“Behind us are our comrades and brothers, the backbone of our country, and also the armies of other nations. We…”

“Cannot act on impulse!”

“General!”

“Since we have already surrendered, we should still…”

“Behave ourselves!”

“…”

Under the gaze of the whole world, in the battlefield so quiet you could hear a pin drop, in front of everyone, these five guards spoke in low voices.

But no matter how softly they spoke.

Wu Tian heard it clearly.

He just smiled slightly.

He reached out and patted the pale, despairing face of General Shelte, who was once high and mighty but now utterly pathetic.

He said coldly to the latter,

“How about it?”

“Your Excellency Shelter, after paying the price in blood, do you understand now?”

“Without the country behind you.”

“What are you, and what kind of father am I, right?”

Slap slap!

“You don’t even bother to ask around!”

Wu Tian smiled coldly.

He slapped Shelter’s cheek twice more.

“What is my, Wu Tian’s, style of doing things, what methods do I use, what kind of enemies have I killed?”

“Old man!”

“Trying to act superior because of your age?”

“That won’t work with me!”

“The weak… must learn to bow their heads!”

“Admit your mistakes, and stand firm when you take a beating!”

“Shelter!”

“Do you understand?”

“…”

“Heh heh…”

Shelter smiled palely and said coldly to Wu Tian,

“I understand!”

“Isn’t it just surrendering and admitting defeat?”

“Since the other three nations have no objections, I will represent the Four-Nation Alliance in surrendering to you!”

“Please, Your Excellency Wu Tian…”

Shelter suppressed the indignation and humiliation in his heart.

He bowed slightly to Wu Tian and said softly,

“Accept my surrender!”

“…”

“No!”

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, believing that this matter had finally come to an end with Shelter’s submission.

Wu Tian unexpectedly shook his head.

He said “No” to the slightly bowing Shelter!

“…”

Shelter was stunned.

Then he raised his head, gnashing his teeth, and looked at Wu Tian, his bloodshot eyes full of humiliation and anger.

“You won’t accept it?”

“Wu Tian!”

“What exactly do you mean?”

“Don’t push your luck!”

“The surrender was accepted by your General Zhao Yulong; you are merely the person who accepted the surrender on behalf of General Zhao Yulong!”

“If something really goes wrong…”

A cold light flickered in Shelter’s eyes.

“You’ll be in deep trouble too!”

“…”

Wu Tian picked his ear.

He glanced askance at Shelter.

He said coldly.

”I don’t accept because my conditions have changed!”

”Before, a bow was enough.”

”Now...”

Wu Tian’s voice was low and powerful as he uttered four words to Shelter.

”You must kneel!”

”...”

...”Kneel?”

”What the hell is this? This Wu Tian is playing games with surrender on the battlefield, and he dares to make such a demand of the opposing general who is surrendering?”

”Haha...”

”Isn’t this a bit too arrogant?”

Watching Wu Tian’s actions in the live stream.

An American Fan frowned instantly.

He expressed his dissatisfaction in the comments.

”Who’s to say?”

”They’re already surrendering, why are you still causing trouble? Isn’t that a bit too petty!”

”Is this...”

”...the magnanimity of Dragon Country?”

”Vindictive?!”

”Haha...”

”How interesting, war has become a farce, and surrender has become a bizarre children’s game of make-believe!”

”I’m not saying!”

”Brother Tian, you need to be more magnanimous!”

”Things have come to this point, they’ve already said they’re surrendering, why are you still holding on?”

”Why are you being so unreasonable here?”

”...”

”Holy crap?!”

”That scoundrel who just commented, don’t you dare leave! What did you just say?”

”Wu Tian is being unreasonable?”

”My Brother Tian is holding on?”

”Haha...”

A Dragon Country Fan immediately couldn’t stand such an insult, his hands moving like blurs as he furiously typed on the keyboard, cursing on the live stream’s public chat.

”If your eyes are useless, you can donate them!”

”Have you forgotten?”

”At first, it was Shelter who refused to surrender to Wu Tian.”

”And it was Shelter who mocked Wu Tian, saying he was nothing without Dragon Country behind him.”

”Saying Wu Tian himself was a good-for-nothing!”

”Completely worthless!”

”How is it that when it comes to you, you suddenly become so hypocritical?”

”...”

”Oh!”

”I see!”

”Is this your Western-style double standard?”

”When you see others eating shit, you say: ’Ah, that person is so dirty!’”

”When you see your own people eating shit, you say: ’Not bad, unique taste!’”

”Really!”

”I’m laughing my ass off!”

”I don’t want to argue with you either.”

”I’ll just say one thing!”

”Now!”

”My Brother Tian will make the supreme General of your Four-Nation Alliance kneel before him and surrender!”

”How about it?”

”Can you stop it?”

The Fan became more agitated as he cursed, and his reasoning became clearer.

He concluded with two words.

Stirring and profound!

Lingering...”Useless!”

...”Kneel?”

”Wu Tian!”

”Don’t push your luck too far. My current status represents the highest military power of four nations. If you insult me like this, have you considered what your fate will be after today?”

Shelter raised his eyebrows.

He straightened his back.

His eyes flashed with dangerous light as he glared at Wu Tian and said bitterly.

”What fate?”

Wu Tian also gave a cold laugh.

He asked Shelter coldly.

”Shelter!”

”Are you threatening me?”

”...”

”Haha...”

”So what if I’m threatening you?”

”Young man!”

”Don’t sacrifice your future or your life for a moment of showing off!”

”When you’re young...”

”...it’s better not to be too arrogant!”

”It’s better to be a bit more humble and modest!”

”...”

”Humble?”

”Modest?”

Bang!

Wu Tian gave a cold laugh.

”Haha...”

He directly extended his right foot and forcefully kicked Shelter’s right kneecap!

Crack!

A crisp sound!

Shelter’s right kneecap shattered directly under Wu Tian’s powerful kick, folding backward!

Grayish-white bone pierced through fascia and flesh, exposing itself to the air.

Bone fragments directly punctured the main artery behind the knee.

Gurgling fresh blood flowed out!

Thud!

A soft sound!

Shelter, losing his knee as support, instantly went limp and half-knelt on the ground.

”Ah!”

”My leg!”

”My leg!”

”What are you doing, Wu Tian?”

”Madman!”

”You madman!”

”Ah!”

”Wu Tian...”

”I will, I will definitely kill you!”

”...”

”One leg!”

Listening to Shelter’s wails and looking at the gurgling crimson blood flowing from Shelter, who was half-kneeling on the ground.

Wu Tian said in a low, expressionless voice.

”Kneel?”

”Or have me kick your other leg off too.”

”I’ll give you three minutes!”

Wu Tian said calmly.

”You choose!”

”...”

”I...”

”I!”

Feeling the agonizing pain from his fingers and knee, Shelter’s eyes widened, and fine beads of cold sweat seeped from his forehead. He looked down at the constantly seeping crimson blood on the ground.

Shelter’s face gradually turned pale.

At this moment, the entire battlefield was silent except for the two of them.

Terribly quiet!

He knew!

Now, at this very moment!

No one could help him!

And he was already old, with broken fingers, a broken knee, and massive blood loss!

The crisis of death, which he hadn’t faced for many years, once again enveloped him.

His heart... began to panic!

After a long while... finally!

Shelter looked at the increasing amount of crimson blood flowing at his feet. As he felt his life constantly ebbing away... he surrendered!

He lowered his proud head.

He put down his other good leg, changing his half-kneeling posture to a full kneel!

Shelter, in front of all the warriors present.

In the sight of the whole world.

Humiliatingly knelt before Wu Tian.

He said loudly to Wu Tian.

”We, the Four-Nation Alliance, now surrender to the army of Dragon Country. We are willing to accept all arrangements of Dragon Country. Hereby...”

”I, Shelter!”

”Supreme Commander of the Four-Nation Alliance!”

”Surrender to Brother Tian of Dragon Country!”

”...”

Shelter’s voice fell.

Everyone sighed with emotion. The once powerful military figure, the General who had commanded the Four-Nation Alliance for thirty years, truly knelt before Wu Tian and surrendered!

It was truly the capriciousness of fate!

The impermanence of the Heavenly Dao!

After a moment of lament, everyone turned their gaze to Wu Tian, who stood in front of Shelter.

They watched to see if Wu Tian would accept Shelter’s surrender.

And Wu Tian’s expression remained calm!

After a few seconds!

Wu Tian suddenly smiled.

He slowly reached out and helped Shelter up from the ground.

Smiling, he said to Shelter.

”Haha...”

”Shelter, what are you doing?”

”This shouldn’t be!”

”I was just joking!”

”With your status, how could you kneel to me in surrender?”

”Hmm?”

Wu Tian was smiling.

But deep in his eyes, a playful glint flickered as he continued to speak to Shelter.

”This one kneel has undone all your thirty years of bloody battles and your entire military career!”

”If you return to your country!”

”Will the country still use you?”

”Alas...”

”What should we do about this!”

”It’s a misunderstanding!”

”It’s all a misunderstanding!”

”...”

Shelter’s body, which had just been helped up by Wu Tian, instantly stiffened. Then, with an incredulous expression, he looked at Wu Tian beside him, opening his mouth but unable to utter a single word.

And Wu Tian chuckled again.

He said to Shelter.

”Really!”

”Is it still too late for me to declare that this was a friendly little joke between us?”

”Haha...”

”Really!”

Wu Tian spread his hands.

”I was really just joking.”

”I didn’t really mean for you to kneel!”

”Alas...”

”Such a sin!”

”...”

”You!”

Listening to Wu Tian incessantly twist the knife in his heart, over and over again.

Shelter’s eyes turned red, and he suddenly felt an extreme surge of anger!

His chest tightened!

Pfft!

A mouthful of blood was spat out from Shelter’s mouth!

”Wu Tian...”

”You are so cruel!”

”Ugh...”

Thud!

A dull thud!

Shelter slid directly from Wu Tian’s support onto the ground, his bloodshot eyes staring blankly at the sky!

Not long after... the elderly and enraged Shelter was breathing more in than out!

”Hey!”

Just then!

Wu Tian shouted loudly at Shelter’s guards, who were frozen in place.

”What are you standing there for?”

”Hurry up!”

”Quickly help your General back, and try to save him!”

Wu Tian said with a ’worried’ expression.

”You mustn’t give up on treatment!”

”...”

The five guards immediately rushed over, frantically lifting Shelter’s body and quickly disappearing into the military formation.

Presumably... they went to find a military doctor.

It was a good thing Shelter had already fainted.

Otherwise... hearing Wu Tian’s last words.

Wouldn’t he have been so angry as to spit out another mouthful of blood?

...”In ancient times, Zhuge Liang angered Zhou Yu three times. Today, my Brother Tian angered a General three times!”

”I have to say!”

”Brother Tian is awesome (voice breaking)!!!”

”...”

”I’m dying of laughter!”

”Here’s a joke: My Brother Tian said he didn’t intentionally make General Shelte kneel, hahaha!”

”Kneel?”

”Shelter: ’Damn it, if you didn’t do it intentionally, why did you break my right kneecap?’”

”Are you bored?”

”Wu Tian: ’Uh, my hand slipped, do you believe me?’”

”...”

”Hahaha...”

”Big brother upstairs, you’re really going to make me die of laughter. My head is going to fall off from laughing so hard!”

”Hahaha...Ugh!”

”No!”

”I can’t laugh anymore!”

”This is my last diaper!”

”If I laugh any more, I’ll pee on the floor!”

”No!”

”The downstairs neighbor has already complained that our upstairs is leaking... no, it’s leaking pee!”

”...”

”Stop talking about all that nonsense!”

”I just want to ask one thing!”

”Wasn’t this series of moves by my Brother Tian impressive?”

”In front of an army of tens of thousands, he fearlessly confronted a General on the spot, and even in front of the five guards behind him with guns pointed at his head, he directly broke General Shelte’s finger!”

”Finally, he even forced Shelter to kneel!”

”And he even crushed General Shelte’s knee with a kick!”

”And the last part was even more brilliant!”

”It was the finishing touch!”

”He angered General Shelte so much that he fainted!”

”He almost died!”

”To be honest...”

”Among young people of my Brother Tian’s age in the world today, no one can surpass my Brother Tian, right?”

”...”

”Just kidding!”

”Others might dabble in stocks, start a business, or found a company, but my Brother Tian directly beat up a General!”

”Can that even be compared?”

”Honestly!”

”My Brother Tian is definitely at the top of the hundred most influential young people in the world!”

”There should be no dispute about that!”

”...”

”No, no!”

”I wholeheartedly agree!”

”I agree with both feet!”

”I agree with three feet!”

”...”

”Upstairs, you’re not right!”

...Bang!

”Excellent!”

”This is the true spirit of our Dragon Country’s sons: brave and resourceful, knowing when to advance and retreat, and full of fighting spirit!”

”Haha!”

”Truly excellent!”

”Hua Wuji...”

The old man sitting in the highest conference room tapped his cane and smiled slightly, saying to Hua Wuji.

”This young man is truly good.”

”His age and experience are just about right!”

”It’s time!”

”How about we make him a Senior Colonel first?”

”...”

”Uh...”

Hua Wuji looked at the highly respected old man and smiled faintly, though there was a hint of awkwardness in his expression.

He smiled slightly.

He replied to the old man.

”It’s not that I’m unwilling to give it, it’s just that I’m afraid this young man...”

”He might not want it!”

”...”

”He doesn’t want it?”

The old man paused.

Then he stroked his beard.

After a few seconds of deliberation, he said.

”Actually, the position of Senior Colonel is not low!”

”If this young man is still not satisfied...”

”A Major General then!”

”Give him a Major General first!”

”The merits he has accumulated during this period are already enough for this rank, but this young man is still a bit too young. Let him hold it for now!”

”If he earns more merits, then promote him again!”

”Haha...”

After saying this, the old man suddenly smiled confidently.

He said to Hua Wuji with a smile.

”Hua Wuji!”

”With this arrangement, this young man should be satisfied, right?”

”...”

”No, not really!”

Hua Wuji gently shook his head.

”You don’t know!”

”I’ve told him before to take on some official position, but this young man, despite his young age, is like someone who has seen through the mortal world, preferring a life of leisure and freedom!”

”He has no interest in these official positions!”

”He has no interest at all!”

The old man: ...”Jiang Yu...”

”It seems Wu Tian has won, and everything is settled!”

”Shall we...”

”...go out?”

On a small hill not far away, three people were lying together, watching the two armies confronting each other in the distance.

A guard licked his lips.

He asked Jiang Yu beside him.

”...”

Looking at Wu Tian and the others, who had finished clearing the battlefield and were about to leave.

Jiang Yu also gently licked her lips.

Then she gritted her teeth.

She whispered to the two guards beside her.

”Then let’s go!”

”Since Wu Tian has won, and he is our comrade!”

”Haha...”

”I believe he, being a big man, should protect us!”

”I didn’t expect it!”

Jiang Yu looked at Wu Tian in the distance, a flicker of light in her eyes.

Finally, she sighed softly.

She stood up first.

She waved to the two guards behind her.

She said softly.

”Let’s go!”

”We don’t need to run anymore, let’s go down the mountain!”

”Our ally has won!”

”...”

”Yes!”

...”My young friend Wu Tian, I’ve only ever seen you in the live stream. Today, I finally get to meet you in person, and what a meeting it is!”

”It’s truly better to see than to hear!”

”Beneath a great reputation, there must be a master!”

Zhao Yulong drove the armored vehicle down the hillside, and after parking it next to Wu Tian.

He stepped out.

After saluting Wu Tian, he smiled and said to him.

”Haha...”

Wu Tian also returned the salute seriously.

Then he also smiled and said to Zhao Yulong.

”What’s there to it?”

”Luck!”

”Haha...”
