Zhao Hai and the others retreated all the way back to Shooting Sun City. Before they reached the city, Zhao Hai could already see a sea of people standing in the city. Many people were standing there, and there were also various banners. It was very lively.
However, Zhao Hai didn't follow them, he just followed Gong Benlei and the others. Not long after, they saw a group of people approaching. The leader was Gong Ruolei.
When Gong Ruolei saw Zhao Hai and the others, he immediately jumped down from his horse and walked towards Zhao Hai and Lei Zhenbo. He bowed to the two and said, "Gong Ruolei greets the two Sirs. The two Sirs have worked hard, please accept Gong Ruolei's salute!" Then he bowed to the two.
When Zhao Hai saw this, he quickly waved his hand and said, "City Lord Gong doesn't need to be so polite. Our action this time is for the entire Soul World. We don't deserve the City Lord's salute."
Lei Zhenbo also nodded and said, "Mister Hu Hai is right. This matter is related to the entire Soul World. It's something that Professionals like us should do. We don't deserve your salute."
Gong Ruolei straightened his body and looked at the two of them. "If it weren't for the two of you putting in so much effort and disregarding your own safety, we wouldn't have known about the Destroyer until now. Please don't worry, the information you sent back has already attracted the attention of the various countries. Now, the various countries have sent their armies to support us. Please come inside and rest."
Zhao Hai and Lei Zhenbo nodded, then they walked forward with Gong Ruolei by their side. Along the way, when they were about to arrive at Shooting Sun City's gate, the people outside the city suddenly burst into cheers. Everyone was elated, it was as if they were welcoming a triumphant return of soldiers.
When Zhao Hai saw this situation, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He followed the crowd into the city and directly entered the City Lord's Mansion. After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Zhao Hai and Lei Zhenbo were invited by Gong Ruo Lei to attend a banquet. There were a lot of people attending this banquet. All the influential people of the Shooting Sun City were present. In addition to these people, there were also representatives from the Gong Hun Country. Of course, they also saw the envoys from other countries.
The emissary of the Blade Spirit Nation also came to visit Zhao Hai. Although he was an emissary of the Blade Spirit Nation, but compared to Zhao Hai, he didn't have enough weight. Not to mention Zhao Hai's identity as a member of the Hu Clan, the emissary of the Blade Spirit Nation didn't even need to greet the King. Therefore, the emissary of the Blade Spirit Nation didn't dare to neglect him.
Zhao Hai also didn't want to make things difficult for an emissary. Moreover, the relationship between the Hu Clan and the Dao Clan was still quite good. Therefore, he also chatted with the emissary for a while.
After the banquet ended, Zhao Hai stayed in the room that Gong Ruo Lei had arranged for him. This was the best guest room in the City Lord's Mansion. Zhao Hai didn't mind. After entering the room, he wrote a letter to the Hu Clan and then asked Fei Ying to send the letter out.
In the letter, Zhao Hai wrote in detail what happened this time. At the same time, he said that he had destroyed the source of the destructive power and then pushed the blame to the Broken River Realm expert. This matter could be kept a secret to the outside world, but it wasn't necessary to keep it a secret to the Hu Clan. The Hu Clan was very clear about his strength. Therefore, Zhao Hai directly told the Hu Clan about this matter.
After sending the letter out, Zhao Hai took a good rest in his room. He had been out for the past few days and hadn't had a good rest. After all, his body wasn't as good as before. Naturally, he still needed to rest.
After resting for a day, Zhao Hai walked out of his room. As soon as he walked out, a servant immediately greeted him. The servant bowed to Zhao Hai and said, "Greetings to my Lord. What instructions do you have for me?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "It's nothing. I just want to walk around. Oh right, accompany me for a walk. Tell me what happened in the Shooting Sun City and the Gong Hun Nation recently."
When the servant heard Zhao Hai's words, he quickly said, "Yes, my Lord. Behind the City Lord's Mansion, there is a man-made lake. There are many colorful fish there. They are very beautiful. I wonder if my Lord would like to take a look."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Lead the way." The servant nodded and then led Zhao Hai to the City Lord's Mansion's backyard.
Zhao Hai looked at the servant and said, "What happened in the Shooting Sun City recently?"
The servant immediately replied, "Replying to my Lord, nothing has happened in the Shooting Sun City recently. The destructive power outside the city has almost been dealt with. The people who had fled to other places have returned. Therefore, the city is now very lively. However, I heard that the Empire has begun to send more troops to the Shooting Sun City. It seems like a war is about to break out."
Zhao Hai nodded. He knew that the servant of the City Lord's Mansion was very well-informed. As the saying goes, snakes have snakes and rats have rats. Although the status of these servants was low, they were very well-informed. Therefore, the servant's words were absolutely credible.
The reaction of the Gong Hun Nation was also outside of Zhao Hai's expectations. This time, if the Destroyers wanted to attack the Gong Hun Nation, they would have to follow the direction of the destructive power. This way, the Shooting Sun City would bear the brunt. Therefore, the Shooting Sun City would soon become a battlefield.
To be honest, Zhao Hai didn't approve of the ordinary people returning to the Shooting Sun City at this time. Although the Destroyers weren't the real Destroyers, they were the descendants of the Destroyers who stayed in the Soul Realm. However, their strength wasn't weak. The war this time wasn't as easy as imagined.
But Zhao also understood why those people came back. Those people were just ordinary people. Living in other places would be a big problem. Even if they could survive, it would be tantamount to starting from scratch. Coupled with the unfamiliar environment, it would make them feel very uncomfortable. It was hard to leave one's homeland, which was why it was so difficult for them to adapt.
Now that these people heard that the destructive power was under control and could even be dealt with, they immediately ran back. This was their home, their roots were here.
Although the war was coming, for ordinary people, the war was far less terrible than the destructive power. They could accept the war, but in the face of the destructive power, they were even more afraid.
While Zhao Hai was thinking about his own matters, the servant led Zhao Hai to the artificial lake in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion. This lake wasn't very big, it occupied less than five acres. There was a small bridge over the lake that led to the center of the lake. In the center of the lake, there was a small pavilion. This small pavilion also had a very simple name, it was called the Lake-Center Pavilion.
The servant led Zhao Hai to the Lake-Center Pavilion. Zhao Hai stood by the pavilion and looked at the fish swimming in the lake. These fish were somewhat similar to koi, they were very beautiful.
The servant stood by Zhao Hai's side and didn't say anything. This servant wasn't an ordinary servant. He had been carefully trained by the City Lord's Mansion. He was trained to be the future Chief Steward of the City Lord's Mansion. Therefore, he was very clear about what he should say at what time.
Zhao Hai didn't know his identity. After looking at the fish for a while, he turned to the servant and said, "Go and see what Mister Lei is doing. If Mister Lei has nothing to do, please come over. Right, bring me some side dishes as well as some wine." The servant nodded and then quickly left.
Zhao Hai sat down in the Lake-Center Pavilion and looked at the fish in the lake. Then he muttered, "The timing of the Destroyers' attack is a bit strange. They shouldn't be naive enough to think that without the help of warships, they can conquer the Soul Realm with just their millions of people and the power of destruction. Could it be that they have other plans?"
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but frown. He had a headache when it came to the Destroyers. This was because it was almost impossible to capture them alive. The Destroyers' bodies were too weak. If they didn't have the humanoid bodies outside, then these Destroyers wouldn't even be as strong as a mouse. But because of this, the Destroyers gave people a headache. This was because it was almost impossible for Zhao Hai to capture them alive. Once the Destroyers found out that they were going to be captured, they would immediately commit suicide. And even if Zhao Hai wanted to stop them, it would be difficult for him to do so.
Although Zhao Hai has the Space, the difference between this Space and his original Space was too big. In his original Space, he could take in centaurs and animals. They simply wouldn't have the chance to commit suicide and would immediately be subdued by the Space. But now, even if animals were to be taken in, they would still struggle for a while, let alone humans.
The humanoid bodies controlled by the Destroyers had a certain degree of defensive capabilities. Especially the small cabin that they were sitting in, it could block Zhao Hai's spiritual force. Even if Zhao Hai wanted to use his spiritual force to control the Destroyers, it would be impossible. In this case, it would be very difficult for him to subdue the Destroyers alive.
If he couldn't subdue the Destroyers, then he wouldn't be able to capture them alive. And if he couldn't capture them alive, then he wouldn't be able to get information. And if he couldn't get information, then he wouldn't know what the Destroyers were planning. In this way, he would always be in a passive position, which wasn't a good thing.
Just as Zhao Hai was thinking about these things, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Zhao Hai looked towards the source of the sound and discovered that it was Lei Zhenbo. Behind Lei Zhenbo was the servant.
Lei Zhenbo arrived at the lakeside pavilion and laughed as he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "I didn't expect Mister Hu Hai to be so refined. Although the lake is small, the scenery isn't bad. It's very suitable for a few drinks."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Mister Lei is too polite. You can call me Little Hai. I'm not used to being called Mister Hu Hai. Come, Mister Lei, please sit down. Today is a rare day of leisure, so I'll have a few drinks with Mister Lei."
Lei Zhenbo smiled faintly and said, "Alright, I'll call you Little Hai. Then you don't need to call me Mister Lei. Just call me Brother Lei."
When Zhao Hai heard Lei Zhenbo, he quickly shook his head and said, "How can I do that? With Mister Lei's age, I should be calling you Uncle Lei." It wasn't strange for Zhao Hai to say this. Although Zhao Hai's current appearance made him look around 30 years old, Lei Zhenbo looked around 60 years old. Naturally, this was only on the surface. His real age was definitely much older. In this case, it would be rude for Zhao Hai to call him Brother Lei.
Lei Zhenbo smiled and said, "Little Hai, you don't need to say that. Although I'm a few years older than you, we Professionals speak with strength. With your strength, calling me Brother Lei is definitely not a problem. And this is because I'm a few years older than you. You can call me Brother Lei." Zhao Hai smiled and said, "You can call me Brother Lei.
Zhao Hai nodded helplessly. Then he cupped his fist and said, "Brother Lei, I invited Brother Lei today because I want to talk to you. There are some things that I can't figure out. I hope Brother Lei can help me take a look." After saying that, Zhao Hai told Lei Zhenbo what he was worried about.
When Lei Zhenbo heard Zhao Hai's words, he frowned and said, "Your worries aren't unreasonable. But these Destroyers are probably the descendants of the Destroyers who invaded the Soul World. They aren't the real Destroyers. Moreover, I don't think there will be any real Destroyers invading the Soul World in the near future. Otherwise, the Broken River Realm experts would've sent news."
When Zhao Hai heard Lei Zhenbo, he couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at Lei Zhenbo with some confusion and said, "What does Brother Lei mean? Those Broken River Realm experts are all elusive. How could they know when the Destroyers will attack the Soul World? "
Lei Zhenbo smiled bitterly and said, "They know. Little Hai, do you think that those Broken River Realm experts are really bored and just cultivate every day? No, those Broken River Realm experts also have their own missions. In fact, monitoring the Destroyers is one of their important missions. The Destroyers have been fighting with the Soul World for so many years. Although we haven't found the Destroyers' hometown, we still have some signs before they appear. It's precisely because of these signs that the Broken River Realm experts have an important mission, which is to monitor the Destroyers. As for how to monitor them, no one knows. But before the Destroyers invade the Soul World, those Broken River Realm experts would definitely know and would warn us. But now, we haven't received any warning, which means that the Destroyers won't invade the Soul World in a short period of time. So we don't have anything to worry about. As for why the Destroyers in the Ice Field would launch their attack at this time, I'm afraid that only they themselves would know. "
When Zhao Hai heard Lei Zhenbo, he nodded and let out a long sigh, "So it's like this. As long as the Destroyers don't launch a large-scale invasion, it's fine. How big is the Ice Field? Their military strength must be limited. Moreover, we have the support of the Destroyers, so it's not difficult to deal with them. In fact, their most powerful weapon was the Destroyers. Now that the Destroyers have been defeated, they have lost their most powerful weapon, so there's nothing to be afraid of."
Lei Zhenbo shook his head and said, "No, we still have to be careful. I've seen some information about the Destroyers before, but no matter what kind of information it is, there's no mention of a Destroyer like the Snow Bear Knights. And the Snow Bears are animals in the Soul World. In other words, the Destroyers are using the animals in the Soul World to deal with us. So it's hard to say how many animals they have turned into Destroyers, so we still have to be careful."
Zhao Hai nodded and didn't say anything.
