Tang Ling never thought that in less than half an hour, he would be able to meet the castellan of Safety Sector No. 17, Worf Andorr, at such a close distance.
He did not expect that Worf's office was not even in Safety Sector No. 17. Instead, it was hidden inside the Cliff of Hope.
Fei Long was standing respectfully in front of Worf. Worf, on the other hand, was calm as he fiddled with the precious ceramic cup from the old civilization in his hand. After a while of silence, he said, "Based on my estimation, you should be the bargaining chip of Sector R in the underground. I didn't expect you to come back safely. "
Fei Long wanted to speak, but he stuttered because he did not want to reveal the truth in front of the castellan.
As a matter of fact, he had already become the bargaining chip. It was Tang Ling who saved him by accident.
However, Worf did not seem to want to ask. He looked at Tang Ling instead.
"Are you Su Yao's man?" It was just a simple question, but Tang Ling felt immense pressure.
As a matter of fact, Worf looked very normal. He was not tall either. The only special thing about him was his pair of light gray eyes that made him look a little special.
His eyes were rational and cold. When he gazed at someone, even if he did not do it on purpose, it would make one nervous.
Tang Ling felt pressure, but he was not nervous.
Part of the pressure came from Worf's powerful aura, and the other part was Worf's question.
How did Worf know that I'm Su Yao's man? Didn't Fei Long mention on the way here that Worf has not been in Safety Sector No. 17 for a long time?
How did he get so much information in such a short period of time?
"Yes." Many thoughts popped up in Tang Ling's mind, but he still had to answer Worf's question.
Worf nodded and sized up Tang Ling again. He then quietly opened the lid of the ceramic cup in his hand and took a sip.
The whole room was filled with a refreshing and strange aroma that intoxicated one.
Tang Ling knew the aroma came from the liquid in Worf's cup, but he did not have the guts to ask Worf for a sip.
"Safety Sector No. 17 isn't peaceful." Worf put the cup down and said calmly. He then curled his lips into a cold smile and said, "I've been away for three years, and this is what I have to face when I come back?"
Fei Long's forehead was drenched in sweat. As the leader of the Purple Moon Empire, he could not escape the blame for what Worf said.
"Wyvern, you're more than capable of defending, but you're not aggressive enough." Worf had no intention of comforting Wyvern, instead, he pointed out Wyvern's mistake.
"Castellan, I … I really don't dare to act rashly sometimes." Fei Long wasn't looking for an excuse for himself. He was speaking the truth.
Worf rapped his knuckles on the table and narrowed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
Fei Long then reminded, "Should we let Tang Ling return to the First Reserved Camp first?"
Tang Ling was just a 15-year-old New Moon Warrior, so Fei Long brought him here out of a selfish motive. He hoped that the castellan would recognize him and it might be beneficial for his growth.
Whether it was the admiration she had for Tang Ling at the beginning or the fact that Tang Ling had saved her by accident, it was a kind of bond and fate.
Fei Long was quietly taking care of Tang Ling in his own way.
Worf shook his head as if he did not care whether Tang Ling was there or not.
The atmosphere in the office fell into a momentary silence. After a while, Worf opened his eyes and looked at Fei Long with a profound gaze. He asked, "What do you think they're after in Safety Sector No. 17?"
"I … I don't know." Fei Long inhaled deeply. As a matter of fact, he was clueless about the whole situation. The castellan's question also confused him.
Fei Long felt like he had failed as the leader of the Purple Moon Empire.
"You really don't know. It's my oversight. If I could have told you more about this world before I left, it might have been better, "Worf said slowly.
"But I didn't. So, when I came back, the settlement was annihilated and Safety Sector No. 17 was on the verge of losing control. The battle in the Hope Barrier was a warning and a test. Those who should unite have already joined forces. "
Fei Long stood straight, but his back was drenched in cold sweat. Was the situation that serious?
Maybe it was really that serious? Even he, the leader of the Purple Moon Warriors of Safety Sector No. 17, was betrayed. What else could it mean?
What a joke. He only realized that there was a traitor in Safety Sector No. 17 after he became a captive and was told that he had become a bargaining chip.
He wanted to explain it to the castellan as soon as possible, but he did not expect the castellan to see it more clearly than he did.
"They are forcing me to make a choice." Worf propped his chin up with his hands.
He looked at Tang Ling as he said that.
Tang Ling was confused. Did the castellan's choice have anything to do with him?
Fei Long was a little anxious. "Castellan, you …"
Worf waved his hand. "It's too late. But I'm not a pushover either! I actually have a lot of choices in my life. There's a bigger world ahead of me. I chose Safety Sector No. 17, so I shouldered this responsibility. I'll make the choice.
But I'll also show my kindness. If I'm not mistaken, "Worf said as he glanced at Tang Ling again.
Tang Ling was even more confused, and so was Fei Long.
"Yes, kindness." Worf seemed a little tired. He leaned back in his seat and went silent again.
After a while, he said, "Get someone to bring Tang Ling away. Everything I've said today is top secret. "
"Yes," Tang Ling and Fei Long answered in unison.
"On top of that, Tang Ling, everything about the Underground race is also a secret. At least, it's not something you should be exposed to right now. So, do you understand what you should do? "Worf looked at Tang Ling as he spoke.
Tang Ling nodded seriously, but he had his own worries in his heart.
They kept saying that Fei Long was a bargaining chip, but now that Fei Long was rescued, would it anger the Underground race?
Worf was indeed a man who knew everything. He seemed to have guessed Tang Ling's thoughts, so he said calmly, "This is also a matter of choice. If the Underground race really does something unusual, everyone will know sooner or later. You don't have to say anything. It's best if you pretend you don't know anything. "
"Yes, sir," Tang Ling answered before he was brought away by Worf's men.
**
Back in the Fierce Dragon Squad's cave in the First Reserved Camp.
Amir, Orston, and Yu were fighting each other like madmen.
No one could stop them, including the three innocent seniors. All they could do was hide in their own little cave and pretend that they did not know what was going on.
Sad people were always the craziest! Tang Ling's death had agitated them.
Speaking of which, even the three seniors were a little sad. Tang Ling was actually a good junior. At least, he was a generous person.
Forget it. People who were in pain needed to vent.
While the few of them were fighting, a sudden voice interrupted, "Aren't we all united?"
Whether it was the numb Andy, the tearful Vian, or Christina, who was at a loss and could not be held back, all of them were stunned when they heard the voice.
They saw Andrew with his hands in his pockets. He was still wearing a faint smile as he watched everything that happened in the cave.
Hank was standing beside Andrew. He looked calm but his gaze was a little unfocused.
He did not want to come here because he felt a little guilty. It was fine if Tang Ling was dead, but the Summit Squad had resorted to underhanded methods.
It would damage his pride as the No.1 expert of the First Reserved Camp.
However, Andrew insisted on coming because he was not a generous person. He would remember every single grudge, even if it was a small one.
And the most satisfying revenge was to stomp on the enemy's bloody wounds.
Even though it was all part of his plan from the beginning, he still felt that the members of the Fierce Dragon Squad were too arrogant, hence he was not happy about it.
Since he was unhappy, he had to find a way to make himself happy, right?
"Do you guys still want to fight? Do you want to look like a joke in front of them? "Christina yelled in a sobbing tone.
Yu stopped. His heart was filled with immense pain. He hated himself for using violence against his companions. Was this what Tang Ling got from his sacrifice?
He was angry at Orston for spouting nonsense and hurting Amir.
He was also angry that Amir did not tolerate Orston's pain and wanted to use violence against Orston.
Orston stopped as well. Even though he was still drunk, he was more or less sober after a round of tormenting.
Facing Andrew and Hank, there was only humiliation in his heart. He also regretted saying those things to Amir. Was it just to vent his anger?
Since Yu and Orston stopped, Amir stopped as well.
He pressed his lips together and lowered his head. His eyes were filled with panic. Maybe he never thought he would have to fight Orston and Yu one day.
In the past, no matter what, he was a little afraid of them. They were from a big family after all, people who stood high above the masses.
Did everything that happened to Tang Ling affect him? Or was something deep in his heart stung?
Other than Christina's sobs, the cave was dead silent.
Andrew took a few slow steps and suddenly clapped his hands. He made a surprised expression and said, "Fight, why don't you continue fighting? Do you only use your unity on the Summit Squad?
Hmm, or is your unity not enough to protect your comrades? Like Tang Ling who hasn't returned yet? Is that why you guys vent your anger on each other? "
"What did you say?" Andy, who had been quiet all this while, suddenly dashed over. His eyes were burning with rage. His short body only reached Andrew's chest, but he was fearless.
But he was fearless and head-butted Andrew.
A hand blocked Andy's way. Hank somehow appeared in front of Andrew and looked at Andy coldly. "You don't have the right to touch him."
"Let him go." Vian stood up. She was also fearless against the strongest person in the First Reserved Camp.
She pulled Andy over, looked at Andrew calmly, and said word by word, "Is your pleasure to rub salt in other people's wounds?"
She then looked at Hank. "Is this your pride as a powerhouse? Or should I say, only by bullying the weak can you maintain your position as a powerhouse?
Compared to Tang Ling, what kind of powerhouse are you? "
Hank's face flushed as he retracted his hand. He was at a loss for what to do. Suppressing the Fierce Dragon Squad from the start was his right as a powerhouse.
However, now that they had lost a comrade on the battlefield, it made Hank uncomfortable to do so.
Vian's words were as sharp as a knife. Hank wanted to leave, but Andrew pulled him back.
Andrew squinted his eyes at Vian. He had always been a gentleman, but this time, he did not conceal his anger at all. "Little girl, you've angered me."
"But I don't care." Vian hugged Andy tightly.
Andy was the most cowardly person in the Fierce Dragon Squad. Tang Ling had always been the one who encouraged and protected him. Now, it was time for Vian to replace Tang Ling and do everything for him.
"Of course you don't care. But when you regret it and want to beg me on your knees, it'll be too late, "Andrew said coldly.
He sensed Hank's dissatisfaction towards him. Was it because of the trash in the Fierce Dragon Squad?
It was something Andrew could not tolerate.
"You won't wait until that day comes." Vian looked at Andrew stubbornly.
"Hmph." Andrew chuckled. "A few days ago, Tang Ling was so arrogant. He probably thought he wouldn't die, didn't he?"
Andrew was always good at poking holes in people's wounds.
Vian's eyes turned red. She bit her lips and tried her best not to cry, but her shoulders were shaking. She was holding it in.
"The Yufeng family will always protect her. I promise with my life," Yu said. Yu opened his mouth. Previously, the immense sense of shame had rendered him speechless, but now, he knew that he had to stand up.
"The Gordin family will always protect her. I promise with my life as well." Orston stepped up as well.
"It doesn't matter." Andrew showed disdain and even felt a little bored. These guys were not sane at all. Of course, they would never know the current situation of Safety Sector No. 17.
Family? Their families could only choose sides from now on and live in fear. Not to mention protecting Vian, even protecting them would be a problem.
Now that the joke was over, it was time for him to leave. Andrew never wanted to talk to idiots.
When he turned around and saw Hank's blushing face, his rage rose again. He turned around so fast that Orston and Yu could not stop him.
He was strong enough to knock Orston and Yu away.
He grabbed Vian and looked up at the Fierce Dragon Squad in the cave. "I'm not happy right now, so I want to hurt her," he said word by word. Do you have any objections? "
As he spoke, he raised his hand high and was about to slap Vivian's face.
Orston and Yu dashed over at the same time, but Andy and Christina stopped them. Amir was at a loss. There was only one thought in his mind. 'Am I really weaker than Tang Ling?'
However, he could not move his feet.
It was at that moment that a hand grabbed Andrew. Andrew looked up and saw an unfamiliar face, but judging from his speed, he should be a Purple Moon Warrior.
Why would a Purple Moon Warrior be here? Why would he intervene in the trivial matters of the First Reserved Camp? This made Andrew somewhat confused.
"I have objections. First, no matter what era it is, it's disgusting for a man to hit a woman.
Second, do you think you can hit a member of the Fierce Dragon Squad just because you want to? " Just as Andrew was puzzled, a lazy voice rang out at the entrance of the cave.
