"I don’t know," the Minister of Military Industry said faintly.
"Don’t know?" Qiu Wentian was shocked, "You signed such a secret contract without knowing whether the other party is in collusion with the Evil God?"
The Minister of Military Industry laughed, a beautiful laugh. She reached out and caressed Qiu Wentian’s cheek, saying, "Xiaoqiu, in this world, you are his senior sister. Trust him with all your heart."
"And he is my hero, I just need to believe in him. Plus, even if it is a collusion with the Evil God, that is also part of his plan. We... just need to support him. No matter the cost. We will bear it together."
This was... unreserved, complete trust. The giant city actually trusted the Supre King to this extent?
Qiu Wentian was speechless with shock for a mont.
But he also had nothing to say. Yes, apart from trust and support, humanity didn’t have many choices.
"This is our secret, and my sincerity, which I have now fully disclosed to you," the Minister of Military Industry turned her head to look at Chen Yu, saying, "What’s left now, is your choice."
Chen Yu fell into silence for a mont but still passed this intelligence on to other players.
"The Eternal Army of Border City... has a pact similar to that of the Great Impurity. And this contract cos from the Supre King of the Extraordinary Alliance! It is speculated that the Supre King might have had contact with the Evil God!"
This information was quickly passed on to all the Great Wall players.
When Li Changhe learned of this ssage, he was indeed sowhat shocked.
"Could it be that he really has so kind of cooperation with the Evil God?" Li Changhe frowned.
This was the most worriso thing.
The Eternal Army was not terrifying; the terrifying thing was the possible betrayal of the Supre King.
Li Changhe’s wariness towards the Supre King was originally because the Supre King had obtained the Book of Heaven from the Tianyan Association and was likely to be bewitched by the book.
And now, there was the addition of the Chaos Evil God...
Damn, a whole set of evils!
"You’ve got to be on your guard, Supre King, otherwise it’s too difficult," Li Changhe sighed.
"You can’t force it, little brother. I just hope that the situation isn’t as bad as we imagine it to be. And after all, the Supre King has always been at the forefront against Chaos and the Different Race... Perhaps the so-called contact is actually the result of both sides’ strategic struggle," Yun Ting advised, "In the face of despair, everyone will think of seeking help from the powerful. You have done the sa."
"I know," Li Changhe sighed.
Of course, he understood that in certain tis, humans would involuntarily seek help from Divinity.
Seek from a powerful existence with unknown malice.
Li Changhe had also done so.
Though now he was the strongest beneath the Demigods, the nesis of the Evil God, and the thorn in the flesh of Annihilation.
He had once been weak.
He had once desperately begged Divinity for salvation, imploring for their help.
For a long period, Li Changhe couldn’t be counted as a top-tier force.
Actually, the ti when Li Changhe was closest to Chaos, and most likely to fall into it.
Wasn’t during Great Tang, nor during the disaster fog.
But during the task of the Sea Clan invasion.
At that ti, he was too weak. Facing the powerful Sea Clan warrior, Hailing Mountain.
He exhausted every thod, almost all his strength. Yet, he was still overwheld.
When he was being torn apart by Dog Brother, on the brink of death.
He truly despaired, really begged the Divinity for help.
His lover, his friends and family. All were in a dire situation.
In that mont, he called to Divinity, asking them to let them survive. No matter what the cost to himself.
If at that ti, be it Blood River, or Pleasure, or the Great Impurity...
No matter which Evil God, no matter what existence, had answered Li Changhe. Granting him the strength to save his lover and friends from Hailing Mountain.
Then Li Changhe today wouldn’t be the strongest beneath the Demigods...
But the enemy of humanity, a believer of Chaos.
If Blood River knew this, it would probably bite its own back teeth to pieces in regret.
Li Changhe was at that ti just a hair’s breadth away from Chaos.
"So, it’s sowhat understandable for the Supre King to have been in contact with Chaos at so points. At least looking at Chaos’s reaction, the Supre King is still their enemy. It’s not the worst-case scenario. Like your human demon army, didn’t they freeload off the Blood River? If you can freeload from the Blood River, it’s reasonable for the Supre King to freeload from the Great Impurity," Yun Ting said. "It’s still you, Li Changhe, freeloadin’ from an Evil God, what’s wrong with that? It’s not like you’re gonna get pregnant!"
Li Changhe nodded slightly. Although the analogy was a bit weird, Brother Ting was right!
Recalling his own past prayers, Li Changhe chuckled to himself.
Indeed, after so ti had passed, having gone through trials and dangers, he had ultimately grown.
Hai Qing of Sea Clan’s Hailing Mountain, I hear you’ve beco a Demigod too, defeating the other Sea Clan Divinities and have beco the Sea King who unifies the Sea Clan.
Next ti we et, we’ll have to have a proper showdown.
...
The following afternoon, Li Changhe left the fleet area alone at the request of the giant city.
The human demon army and the fleet soldiers were seething with anger, but under Li Changhe’s orders, they retreated to their quarters, vigilant, and took out weapons the players had brought in their backpacks.
Should anything unexpected happen, they would be able to react imdiately.
As for Li Changhe, who had left the fleet area, he was ’incidentally’ invited by Ye Yi.
Sitting in the back seat of a stretch limousine, Ye Yi smiled at Li Changhe, "Captain, let give you a ride."
His tone carried a hint of frivolity and provocation.
Even without using the Cold Reading Skill, Li Changhe could sense his joy and showiness.
The joy ca from seeing a fleet captain fall from grace, and the showiness was from his vehicle.
In the world of the ninety-nine cities of the Netherworld, most human vehicles were practical off-road types.
Because the road conditions were so poor, other types of vehicles simply couldn’t make it.
And a stretch limousine was almost extinct.
This Ye Yi really liked to stir things up.
"But what the heck is he up to?" Li Changhe wondered to himself.
"Normal, this Ye Yi has quite the status in the Border City, one of the candidates for the next City Lord. Now, seeing an outsider who appears younger than him, with a higher status, and on good terms with the military minister he’s after. It’s right that he’s annoyed with you," Yun Ting replied. "Of course, he’s not a match for Chen Yu. In any world."
Initially hesitating whether to use the Netherworld Reins or ride a bicycle, Li Changhe glanced at Ye Yi’s vehicle.
He couldn’t help but think, with your car, I’d be faster on a bike.
At that mont, the military minister’s convoy arrived, and a Transcendent approached to invite Li Changhe to ride together to the building.
Li Changhe waved off Ye Yi and got into the military departnt’s vehicle.
Seeing Li Changhe leave, the smile stayed on Ye Yi’s face, but inwardly he snorted, "What an ingrate!"
Even now that he had Xiaoqing, he still had designs on the military minister.
"What a pity, it seems the captain isn’t willing to grant this favor," Ye Yi said to the people in the car with a smile.
Across from him, Hai Qing, wearing a defense force uniform, smiled, "That really is a pity. But we’ll be seeing him later, plenty of chances still."
Ye Yi gazed at Hai Qing, infatuated, "Xiaoqing, you look so good in that military uniform..."
Hai Qing sneered. The driver and another officer in the car felt a bit regretful.
It really was a waste.
If Li Changhe had accepted the invite into the limousine, then Hai Qing could have tried to use the Enchanting Eye to influence him.
Hai Qing’s Enchanting Eye was incredibly powerful; even a Demigod could be affected a bit. Anyone below a Demigod had almost no chance of escaping its influence.
If they could safely take down this human fleet captain, the human fleet would beco Hai Qing’s.
Even if they failed, the Blood Clan player disguised as the driver and the Sea Clan player promoted to officer by Ye Yi could take the opportunity to subdue and replace him, achieving control over the fleet.
A pity, they let him slip through.
But there was no rush.
Today was their day to act. This fellow would just live a few more hours, that’s all.
