Rod nodded in understanding.
"This is indeed a very good choice. But … "He raised his head and looked straight into his brother's blue-black eyes. "But, when I saw that Nighthawk King with my own eyes, I had a very strange feeling. He rushed into the White Phoenix base alone, and completely destroyed the entire White Phoenix base in less than ten minutes. Even the alloy walls that were more than ten centimeters thick couldn't stop him … But that wasn't the scariest thing, it was his calm aura that controlled everything. It was this aura that made me decide to choose him over the Primary Colors. "
The golden-haired man frowned. "Rod, I always thought that you were a rational person."
"Listen to me, brother." Rod raised his voice. "The relationship between the Primary Colors and us won't improve just because of one Nighthawk, nor will it worsen just because of one Nighthawk. The game between the organizations isn't something that can be decided by a simple matter. Forget about the Nighthawks, even the entire White Phoenix is just a pilot branch to the Primary Colors. Its loss is just the loss of one of the factions. "
"You're always so childish." The golden-haired man had a scornful look on his face. "You let your emotions get the better of you, and you make a choice on impulse. Don't you think that the losses caused by this are small?"
He picked up the dark blue wine beside him gracefully, took a sip, and put it down again.
"The Nonia Airport project, the Brazilian resource negotiations, the Morpheus incident last time. I've always had expectations and expectations for you, Rod, but you've always disappointed me time and time again. "
Rod's face flushed red immediately.
"It's different this time, I promise you!" He instantly recalled Garon's mysterious figure that seemed to control everything. The things that his brother had mentioned were all his failures in the past. But it was really different this time. That feeling … That strange feeling …
"That's enough." The golden-haired man closed his eyes. "You have to understand that I don't have all the advantages in the organization. The information you sent back this time may be impressive, but if you want us to fight the Primary Colors officially with just this … I can tolerate your impulsiveness, but the others won't."
He paused. "Get over it, go and learn something for real. Don't hang around with those garbage worms all day." He looked at Rod seriously. "You're my brother, Parolan. Remember this identity. You're not young anymore. "
He stood up after he finished speaking, walked out of his seat, and walked towards the side door.
"I won't give you any more support on this matter, even if it's another lesson for you. Failure isn't scary. What's scary is not learning from it. "
"But big brother …" Rhode stood up abruptly.
The man waved his hand and said no more. Soon, he disappeared through the side door.
Rode's expression was ugly, but there was still an unwillingness to admit defeat in his eyes.
He had always been like this. Since he was young, he had always been like this! An impulse surged in his heart, but he didn't know what it was.
"Since you won't support me, I'll do it myself!"
All these years, he hadn't just been eating, drinking, and having fun. He had also accumulated some connections. In addition, as Paloran's younger brother, many people in the company were willing to give him face.
This was not only an acknowledgement of her own opinion, but also an opportunity to prove herself in front of her brother!
He hesitated for a moment, then took out his phone and quickly dialed a number.
"Sally? Send out the Clown Sea Serpent. Stop the mission there for now. Send out the Seals as well! We have to show the Nighthawks our sincerity! "
He paused for a moment. "Also, stop the drilling at the oil field. Withdraw all the funds. Find a seller and sell it. The price will be according to the estimated price. Sell it as soon as possible. A loss is nothing. " This was the biggest investment he had ever made. Resisting the pain in his heart, Rode gritted his teeth. If he wanted to settle this, he would need a large amount of funds. The oil field project was all the money he had accumulated over the years. However, if he wanted to settle it, and his brother didn't support him, he could only do it himself.
"But … Withdrawing the funds now will cause a huge loss. We've been going on for so long and invested so much money. Once the oil is produced …" The person on the other side hesitated.
"Obey the order!"
"… Alright."
Without her brother's support, it was impossible to get the Sleepless Faces from the company without sufficient funds.
Putting down his phone, Rode's face showed a never-before-seen determination.
"I'll let you see that I'm no longer the useless Rhode …"
*****
The setting sun emitted a red halo, like a huge red ball. Half of it was exposed on the ground.
The top half of the rolling stone mountain was dyed a bright red, reflecting in the lake beside it. The mountain was bare, only stones and soil. There were no trees in sight. Between the foot of the mountain and the lake was a rolling green lawn. Under the shadow of the sun, the original emerald color seemed a little dark.
A blonde man in white clothes walked quietly on the shadowed lawn. He had handsome features and a steady but sharp temperament. It was Garon, who had just arrived in Berlin.
He looked up into the distance. Beyond the lake was the same lawn and mountain. Only the top half of the mountain was dyed red by the sun.
"Where is this?" He furrowed his brows. The grass under his feet felt soft and wet. He looked down and saw that he was barefoot and not wearing any shoes.
"Black Sethe?" he whispered. There was no response.
Walking to the lake, he squatted down and scooped up some water. The water was warm. He could see a few small fish looking at him curiously through the water.
"We meet again." A familiar voice suddenly came from behind Garon.
"Nadia!" He stood up abruptly and turned around. He saw a young girl on the lawn.
The girl was wearing a familiar mask. She was half crying and half laughing. Her long black hair was soft and smooth, fluttering to the left with the wind. She was wearing a black short skirt, black tights, black shoes, and a black top. Only her underwear had a touch of white.
Her ink-black outfit was a stark contrast to her glowing white skin. Her slender figure looked even more slender and pure under the contrast of her long hair.
But no matter how she looked, Garon recognized her strange male voice. She was the Nine-Headed Dragon King, Nadia.
"The coordinates are getting closer …" Garon stared at her.
"Soon, I'll be there soon." Nadia's voice under the mask was getting deeper.
Garon did not reply. It was not the first time they had fought. Both of them had a rough understanding of each other's personality. There was no need for words.
Garon pointed at the acupuncture points in front of his chest with both hands.
His body swelled up like air, emitting a strange black metallic luster.
The Seven Star Life's Secret Point opened from the first star to the fourth star.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind blew in all directions with him as the center, causing the grass on the ground to tremble violently.
On the other side, two silver spikes appeared in Nadia's hands. She clasped her hands together, and the two spikes rapidly grew in size. In just a short moment, they had transformed into a huge three-meter-long saber. Compared to her height of less than 1.7 meters, the three-meter-long saber and the saber hilt made her petite figure look even more petite. It also made the saber look even heavier and bigger.
With a whoosh, the broadsword swung out in a silver circle and pointed diagonally at the ground. The grass on the ground where the blade touched was cut into two as if it was cut by scissors.
A white shadow flashed.
Clang!!!!
Garon held the broadsword with both hands and turned his body to the side. He wanted to turn the broadsword around with both hands, but he immediately felt that his hands were empty as the broadsword was pulled away.
"Ominous Space Dominating Path!" Nadia growled suddenly.
Garon closed his eyes and stretched out his hands to grab in front of him. He felt a sharp pain in his face and shoulders, but he also grabbed Nadia's shoulders with both hands.
The terrifying power of the fourth star made the bones in his opponent's shoulders crack.
"Die!!"
He roared and clasped his hands together.
Bam!!
Their palms collided, but all that was left in his hands was a piece of black clothing.
When he opened his eyes, Nadia was wearing a white undershirt and holding a long broadsword. She landed lightly on the ground more than ten meters away.
Garon touched his cheek. A small wound hurt a little, but it was quickly healing. After the fourth star was opened, his recovery ability had reached an unexpected level.
He moved his hands. Garon raised his arms and countless streams of air gathered in his hands.
"These days, I've been thinking about the martial arts you used before." He put down his hands. Countless clouds gathered in his palms and turned into two white whirlpools.
"Maybe I can't reach the realm you talked about, but I can still occasionally gain something."
Boom!!
Dirt and grass exploded under his feet and a huge crater appeared. He turned into an afterimage and appeared in front of Nadia as if he had teleported.
"Cloud Dragon!!"
Several white cloud dragons coiled around his arms. Garon's huge body carried terrifying power as his palms smashed onto the huge broadsword.
The moment his palms touched the broadsword, formless sound waves spread out. The terrifying high-frequency vibrations quickly disintegrated the material of the broadsword.
Crack … Bam!!
The broadsword broke under Nadia's shocked gaze.
Roar!!
The nine white cloud dragons on Garon's arms roared and charged at Nadia. These cloud dragons were completely white, but the strange thing was that their eyes glowed with a pure blue light, as if the pure blue light was projected from their bodies.
Half of the broadsword spun and flew over Nadia's shoulder. It instantly smashed into the mountain behind her and exploded into a cloud of red mist.
The dragons quickly rushed towards her cheeks and eyes.
"Split!" Nadia abruptly raised her head and roared madly. A terrifying nine-headed dragon's roar could be faintly heard amidst the loud roar. Nine terrifying dragon-shaped shadows appeared behind her. They snaked towards the white cloud dragons.
