Dragon Division Headquarters –
The reorganized Dragon Division was all done.
Bei Shan was in his office, looking at a photo frame. Inside was a photo of him and his second brother, Xu Cheng.
At this moment, the youngest disciple of Diamond 3 was mopping the floor and cleaning Bei Shan's office.
Diamond 3 was a newly recruited member of the Dragon Division from the military region. He was young, talented, and a chatterbox.
Seeing Bei Shan staring blankly at the picture frame, he curiously came over and asked, "Senior Brother Bei Shan, who is this?"
Bei Shan chuckled, put the picture frame on the table, and didn't say anything.
Diamond 3 asked curiously, "Senior Brother, I've seen all the brothers in the 48 cards, and there are a lot of brothers underground who are very curious. Why haven't we seen the only two cards? Oh, right, Senior Brother, why isn't there a card two in every group? I also heard the other brothers say that one of the four Heavenly Kings needs to be the next Dragon King. "
"Who did you hear that from?" Bei Shan glared at him.
The little disciple stuck out his tongue. "They all said that the Dragon King position has been empty for a year."
"Even if it's been empty for 10 years, it won't be us four taking it."
Diamond 3 was surprised. "Why? Is the Dragon King position just going to be empty? It's like a group of dragons without a leader. "
Bei Shan: "The Dragon Division is currently being reorganized, why would we need a Dragon King? Do you have nothing better to do? Go out and practice. "
Diamond 3 smacked his lips. "Senior Brother, how about we recruit a card two from the other four groups? That way, I won't be the youngest in our Diamond group, and people will call me Senior Brother in the future."
Bei Shan seemed to have thought of something as he chuckled.
"I don't know about the other groups, but our Diamond group really does have a card two!"
Diamond 3: "Oh really? That's great, I'm not the youngest anymore. "
Bei Shan speechlessly shook his head. "Go out."
Fang San hurriedly picked up the mop and left.
When he saw Fang J in the hallway, he laughed and said, "Senior Brother Fang J, so there's a card two in our group that's younger than me. Do you know where he is? I will treat him well. "
Fang J looked at his junior with a strange expression. "If you ever get the chance to meet him in this lifetime, don't say something like that, you'll get beaten up."
Fang Three smiled. "If the three of us still can't beat Fang Two, then I'll let him be the third. I'll be the second!"
Fang J pointed at himself. "Even I want to be 2, but I'm not fated to do so. You probably won't be able to drop from 3 to 2 in this lifetime! Let me tell you, falling from 3 to 2 is even harder than getting you to A! "
Fang 3 was confused. "Why?"
Fang J: "When you see Ol '2, you can ask him yourself."
Fang 3: "Where is he?"
J Fang's eyes flickered for a moment, then he looked at the courtyard outside the corridor, his eyes gazing into the distance. He said, "He violated the rules. The Dragon Division's motto is to prioritize the interests of the country above everything else, but he chose the latter over the Dragon Division and a woman. He didn't have enough self-awareness, so he was fired."
In the distant Land of Mercenaries.
Xu Cheng stood on the balcony of the temporary government building set up by the Earth Mercenary Group and looked at the sunset. Behind him, Li Wei walked over and handed him a cigarette.
Xu Cheng took it and lit it up. After two puffs, he said, "In all the things I've been plotting, there's one thing I don't understand."
Li Wei: "What is it?"
Xu Cheng: "I can understand that Grandpa Ye is good to me, but isn't it a bit too much for the five elders to work so hard for me, and even the members of their families are willing to accept me? I admit that I'm very capable, but they don't know how capable I am. They're the five most powerful families in the world, but they're trying so hard to rope me in, who has no position, no background, and no money. Grandpa Ye even recognized Auntie Lan as his goddaughter out of consideration for my feelings, and the other four families are fighting to marry Auntie Lan. I don't understand. "
Li Wei: "Then don't think about it. You have a lot of things to think about right now."
Xu Cheng shook his head. "No, I don't understand. I feel like it's another trap."
Li Wei bitterly smiled. "Right now, it's no different from playing with your life. What trap is there that you don't dare to jump into?"
"That's true." Xu Cheng nodded. "What do you think about R's incident today?"
Li Wei: "I feel like capitalism isn't as simple as we think it is. This time, when we came out to the Land of Mercenaries, we seemed to have bumped into something we shouldn't have."
Xu Cheng bitterly smiled. "I've already seen through it. Now, what we can be sure of is that the masters in this world are far from being limited to the SSS level. I was wondering why legendary masters aren't used by people, but it turns out that the guards of those capital empires are even more powerful than legendary masters!"
Then, Xu Cheng took a puff of his cigarette and faintly said, "You probably won't believe this, but R, a westerner, actually uses Eastern internal martial arts. This incident suddenly makes me a bit worried. Before, I heard that the Freemasonry has millions of members all over the world, and each one of them is more powerful than the other. After seeing R today, I feel like the rumors are well-deserved. These people are all super players, and if we want to be NPCs, we really can't avoid them."
Li Wei: "Big Brother Cheng, are you scared?"
Xu Cheng nodded. "You know what I'm scared of."
"I know." Li Wei indifferently said, "You are scared that the Freemasonry's hands have already reached into the country, and you are scared that one day, you will go against the country."
Xu Cheng nodded. "I hope that day will never come."
Li Wei looked at him. "Then if that day comes, what will you do?"
Xu Cheng took a deep puff of his cigarette and sighed. "What else can I do? I'm done! Let's split the loot, and I'm going to take my wife to sleep with me for the rest of my life. "
Li Wei smiled. "I believe it won't come to that day. Speaking of capital, the four clans were the most influential back then, and they were the ones who entered the Freemasonry. However, their demise didn't cause much of a stir. If they were members of the Freemasonry, we probably wouldn't have been able to eliminate them back then! So, I think the country probably hasn't become a player of the Freemasonry yet. "
"This is also the only answer I can use to comfort myself. But, it's hard to say, but I can't betray the country yet. I already gave up once for a woman, and if I choose to go against the country again, I'm afraid my dad's coffin won't be able to hold down. "
At the end, Xu Cheng bitterly took another puff of his cigarette and sighed. "How do you think I should explain to my wife that I'm a monster? Do you know what I'm most afraid of? "
Li Wei shook his head.
Xu Cheng said, "I'm not afraid of the world betraying me, but I can be sure that I can't stand her betraying me. That would be devastating."
Li Wei understood what Xu Cheng was thinking, and he also sighed. "It's really hard for normal people to accept people like us with supernatural abilities. You, for example, Disse and Walla, having those weird things growing out of your hands would scare people."
Xu Cheng nodded. "I'm afraid that one day, when I become a monster like that, the one who will be the most disappointed and scared will be Chuxue."
