Spiritual Energy Revival: Transform Into a Divine Phoenix, Automatically Upgrade

89: Chapter 89: Nationwide Level One Combat Readiness! General ZhaoThree days later, a grand and heavily guarded motorcade drove into Jianghai City.

”Oh my god, I’ve only seen such a grand display on TV before. I never thought I’d see a big shot with my own eyes...”

”Does anyone know what rank the big shot in that military vehicle is?”

”To have a fully armed escort, they must be at least general-level...”

”A general... what is a military general doing here in our Jianghai City?”

”With such a big commotion, there must be some military operation that needs Jianghai City’s cooperation.”

”Hmm...”

The military vehicles entering Jianghai City in such a grand manner naturally attracted the citizens’ attention. Being able to see a general protected by fully armed guards was enough to make their gossiping souls burn fiercely.

A burly, valiant-looking middle-aged man exuded a thick military aura.

After arriving in Jianghai City, the general went straight to the city’s administrative office.

At this time, the leaders of Jianghai City had been waiting in the administrative office for a long time.

”Why would a military general come to our Jianghai City?”

”I don’t know... I heard this general is a general with real power, a big shot within our Great Xia Military Department. For a military big shot to personally come to Jianghai City, there must be something urgent...”

”Mayor Lin, do you know anything?”

Mayor Lin shook his head, his expression somewhat inscrutable. ”I don’t know the specifics yet, but a friend of mine in Dragon City told me that this time, the general came for the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle on the outskirts of Jianghai City...”

”What?! Is the military planning to eliminate the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle?!”

”That won’t do. What if the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle gets provoked and comes directly to our Jianghai City to run amok...”

”Yeah...”

”Don’t worry yet. We’ll wait until the military big shot arrives. These are just rumors.”

Before long, the military general arrived at the Jianghai City administrative office.

As soon as the conference room door opened, a decisive and vigorous aura rushed toward them.

The middle-aged general walked into the conference room and saw many Jianghai City leaders looking at him in unison.

His expression didn’t change at all as he nodded toward Mayor Lin, who was in the head seat.

He spoke.

”I presume all the department leaders of Jianghai City are here. Everyone, I’ll get straight to the point...”

His leopard-like eyes scanned the people around him.

”My main purpose in coming here is to eliminate the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle on the outskirts of Jianghai City.”

As he finished speaking, the Jianghai City leaders cried out in shock!

”What?! He really is here to eliminate the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle!”

”Are those military big shots really just a bunch of reckless fools? Don’t they know how powerful the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle is?!”

”If this causes unrest in our Jianghai City, what should we do?! Who will take responsibility?”

”The Supreme Leader of Great Xia will take responsibility!”

As the military general shouted these words, the conference room fell silent once again. Everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief.

The general then looked at Mayor Lin, who was in a state of shock.

”Supreme Leader Xia has initiated a National Level One Combat Readiness state. This order will be sent to all cities across the country soon. In fact, it’s not just your Jianghai City; every city in Great Xia will cooperate with all our military operations.”

National Level One Combat Readiness...

This was an ironclad rule established in the early days of Great Xia’s founding. It was a state that could only be initiated by the leader of the Great Xia Kingdom with the approval of the majority of department heads.

Initiating this state meant that the entire Great Xia had entered a state of war!

This meant that Jianghai City’s autonomy would definitely be gone. They had to fully cooperate with Great Xia Kingdom’s actions—specifically, the actions of the military general before them.

Mayor Lin recovered from his shock and sized up the calm military general.

He sighed silently in his heart.

”Alright, I understand. Jianghai City will definitely fully cooperate with the military’s operation.”

He didn’t believe this general would lie about such news; if it were fake, it would be equivalent to treason.

”Good, thank you for your cooperation.”

General Zhao of the military department showed a smile.

”By the way, let me introduce myself. My surname is Zhao.”

Many Jianghai City leaders in the conference room hadn’t fully reacted to the conversation just now.

”National Level One Combat Readiness?! Is this a joke?”

”Is this general a fake?!”

After a hundred years of peace in Great Xia, they immediately doubted the general’s authenticity when the country suddenly entered a state of war.

General Zhao didn’t care at all about the suspicious looks from the Jianghai City leaders, as long as Mayor Lin was a sensible person.

”Mayor Lin, please tell me all the information and data on the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle so I can formulate a battle plan.”

Mayor Lin nodded. ”Alright.”

He made a phone call to tell his secretary to fetch a file from the office.

The secretary soon brought a sealed file.

The sealed file was placed in General Zhao’s hands. Mayor Lin explained.

”Everything in here is all the information we currently have on the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle...”

”Hmm...”

General Zhao nodded and then tore open the sealed file bag.

He took out over a dozen pages of information, which contained pictures and various data on the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle.

General Zhao, who had been calm and composed, experienced a change in expression.

At this moment, the only sound in the conference room was the rustling of him flipping through the documents.

Seeing this, many Jianghai City leaders looked at this military big shot with playful eyes.

They began to exchange glances.

The meaning was simple.

We thought he was some military big shot, but it turns out he’s just a stubborn fool who doesn’t know how strong the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle is?

Wasn’t he very arrogant just now?

Is he still calm now?

If they hadn’t taken into account that he was a big shot, they would have already mocked this general who had been maintaining an air of pride.

Clap!

As the last page of the document was flipped, General Zhao’s face darkened.

”Mayor Lin, are you sure this isn’t a fake set of data?”

”How can a creature have supersonic speed? And unknown powers?”

”Are you trying to fool me?!”

The Jianghai City leaders, who were originally waiting to watch the show, were stunned.

This arrogant general actually dared to get angry at them!

Even Mayor Lin’s face showed anger!

”This really is the data on the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle! Many leaders in this conference room and the millions of citizens in Jianghai City can testify that the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle is such a powerful creature!”

General Zhao felt the angry gazes of the many leaders in the conference room.

His heart jolted!

Could that Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle really be that powerful?!

At this moment, after a few seconds of composure, Mayor Lin’s eyes lit up. He thought of an irrefutable piece of evidence to prove the strength of the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle!
