This subtle change made the eyes of some people flicker. It seemed that Zhang Weidong's initial show of strength did not work. Instead, he was beaten down by the higher-ups.
This made everyone's view that the Dragon King had lost power because he was not immediately received and appointed by the higher-ups upon his return was shaken. Their attitude toward the Dragon King had also undergone some subtle changes.
Even the God of War who had been missing for more than 20 years was still the invincible God of War of Shenzhou. In the eyes of the higher-ups, a clown like Zhang Weidong could never be compared to him.
Everyone quietly pricked up their ears, wanting to hear the tone of Speaker Chang when he spoke to the Dragon King, so that they could judge the attitude of their superior towards him. Unfortunately, the Dragon King had a strong sense of secrecy, so he covered the microphone tightly, so that they could not hear a word or two.
The call took a long time. The Dragon King spoke very little and only hummed and hawed, so no one knew what Speaker Chang had said to him.
However, judging from the Dragon King's calm attitude and the length of the call, they could tell that the higher-ups attached great importance to the Dragon King. It was very likely that the Dragon King would be entrusted with important tasks next. Otherwise, they would not have spoken to him for such a long time.
However, they did not know that the reason why Speaker Chang had spoken to the Dragon King for so long was not because he had much to say. He was apologizing to the Dragon King. At the same time, he explained to the Dragon King that it was not because he did not value him, but because he had some loose ends to deal with in Mi Country.
Although Mi Country kept what happened in Area 51 a secret, the backyard of the Office of the President had been bombed. As the victim, how could Daibarond let it go? Naturally, he had to throw a tantrum with the higher-ups of Shenzhou, say some harsh words, and try to get some compensation.
However, how could the higher-ups of Shenzhou compromise? Their attitude was extremely tough, saying that all this was Mi Country's own fault and no one else could be blamed.
Daibarond flew into a rage out of humiliation and issued harsh words. When the international public opinion that Shenzhou had created a terrorist act in Mi Country was against Shenzhou, the Shenzhou government did not give in at all. They even smiled and thanked Mi Country for promoting Shenzhou.
That was because they knew that the US could not afford to lose face, and Daibarond was just using this as an excuse to extort some benefits to save face. Naturally, the US would not care about him. If they wanted to publicize it, they would have done so long ago. Why wait until now?
Although he was just shooting his mouth off, it was a waste of energy. The Speakers were busy every day. They did not have the time to deal with a mad dog like Daebarond.
Although the incident happened in America, it involved the Dragon King and Dragon Fang, who were members of the Divine Country's military. Therefore, as the Speaker in charge of the military, Speaker Chang naturally had the hard job of fighting a war of words. He did not even have time to meet the Dragon King.
Of course, from Speaker Chang's indirect probing, the Dragon King also understood what he meant. He was extremely interested in the weapon that could destroy America's newest fighter jet. He wanted to know who the people who attacked Area 51 were.
Unfortunately, the Dragon King was still trapped in the arena at that time and knew nothing about it. Naturally, he could not give him any answers. This made Speaker Chang's heart itch like a cat scratching it. He thought that it was inconvenient for the Dragon King to talk over the phone. He planned to invite the Dragon King to a banquet after the incident was over and find out the origin of the latest weapon.
The phone finally hung up. The Dragon King breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that talking to Speaker Chang was more tiring than fighting a demigod.
Speaker Chang's words were full of traps and tricks. Even the God of War felt physically and mentally exhausted. If he was not careful, he would be tricked by Speaker Chang.
Fortunately, the resolution that Speaker Chang conveyed in the end satisfied the Dragon King. Otherwise, he really did not want to talk to him.
The city is full of tricks. I want to go back to the countryside.
。
The Dragon King secretly sighed. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed the hidden jealousy and envy in Zhang Weidong and Li Xingguo's eyes. He could not help but laugh in his heart.
They were proud to talk to Speaker Chang, but the Dragon King did not feel honored at all. If possible, he did not want to deal with an old fox like Speaker Chang. It was too tiring.
"Team … Team Leader Long, what did Speaker Chang say?"
Li Xingguo originally wanted to call the Dragon King. However, when he thought that even Zhang Weidong had changed the way he addressed him after being beaten by the higher-ups, he would be asking for trouble if he still did not pay attention to it.
The Dragon King sat on the main seat. He could not help but exude the majesty of a person who had been in a high position for a long time. He said calmly, "Everyone, I will now convey the latest order from the higher-ups."
Everyone sat up straight, including the old fox. It was true that he liked to take advantage of his seniority, but he had enough political wisdom and sensitivity. He knew that from now on, he had to maintain enough respect for the Dragon King. Otherwise, if the Dragon King really bore a grudge against him, who knew if he could still smoothly retire to the second line and enjoy the happiness of a family. The Dragon King deliberately paused for a moment.
The Dragon King deliberately paused and looked around with a pair of majestic eyes. Seeing that Zhang Weidong's face was sullen, but Zhang Weidong had straightened his body and was listening to him carefully, the Dragon King said slowly, "The latest order from the higher-ups, all units are to be in position and prepare for battle. After three hours, if the devouring force has not stopped, immediately start the destruction plan. If it stops midway, immediately organize elite soldiers to form a suicide squad and enter the bottom of the Broken Soul Cliff to investigate the source of the devouring force …"
…
Just when the Dragon King conveyed the latest order from the higher-ups, the bottom of the Broken Soul Cliff was already a different scene.
The dark red ground had been swallowed by the terrifying devouring force, and the ground had sunk nearly half a foot, revealing the black and yellow soil below, as well as … densely packed bones.
If Ding Ning was awake at this moment, he would definitely turn pale with fright when he saw this scene.
Because these bones were not just the white bones of ordinary people. Most of them were golden bones that emitted a terrifying pressure. There were even jade bones that were even more terrifying and powerful than the pressure emitted by a Half-step Immortal rank expert.
The golden bones were undoubtedly the bones of a God rank expert, while the jade bones were undoubtedly the bones of an Immortal rank expert. Ding Ning really did not know why there were so many Immortal rank experts buried here in this land of the Three Realms.
Of course, other than the bones, there were also countless weapons and armors. Although these weapons and armors had long been rusted and even broken after countless years, the remnant sharpness that leaked out from them still made people not dare to look directly at them. It could be seen what kind of divine weapons these weapons and armors were.
For some reason, the dark red soil and gravel were all devoured and absorbed by Ding Ning's body, but the black and yellow soil could not merge with his body at all, as if it was not to his taste. As a result, the place he was currently at had already become a soil mound with a circumference of ten meters, looking like a large burial mound.
But the devouring did not end there. Although the black and yellow soil was not to his taste, the God corpses, Immortal corpses, as well as the weapons and armors that had not completely decayed became his main meal.
Countless bones, weapons and armors rolled and tumbled as they were sucked into that burial mound by the devouring force, turning into piles of powder at a speed visible to the naked eye and dissipating with the wind.
Ding Ning had a dream, a very, very long dream. He did not remember who he was, nor did he know why he came to this terrifying battlefield that made even his soul tremble.
Countless terrifying experts were fighting in a blood-soaked frenzy. Any one of the aftershocks of the battle could easily crush him into pieces, and he would die without a burial place.
The world lost its color, the sun and moon lost their light, corpses were everywhere, and blood flowed like a river.
In the river, the sound of fighting soared to the sky.
The violent shockwave of the battle forcibly penetrated the ground. The entire battlefield was like a broken porcelain that was forcibly glued together, covered with fine cracks like a spider's web.
It was really full of potholes and desolation, making it hard for people to look straight at it.
On this battlefield, he was the weakest existence, and his instinctive fear made him only want to escape from this terrible place as soon as possible.
However, this battlefield was too big, so big that it was boundless. Even if he flew continuously for three days and three nights, he might not be able to escape the range of the battlefield.
Boom!
The two super experts, who could be regarded as the top existences in the entire battlefield, fiercely collided. The terrifying shockwave of power swept through the world, and wherever it passed, both people and objects were turned into nothingness.
Ding Ning was very unlucky to be in the place affected by the shockwave of their battle. Seeing the terrifying shockwave that was like a nuclear bomb exploding crazily spreading towards him, he could not help but close his eyes in despair, accepting his fate and waiting for death.
He had no choice. The disparity in strength was too great, and they were not on the same level at all. He did not even have the thought of resisting, so why should he waste his efforts?
But … …
The pain of being smashed to pieces did not come. Instead, he felt that he had fallen into a warm and soft embrace.
Puzzled, he opened his eyes, and saw a familiar yet strange beautiful face. However, that beautiful face at the moment was frowning, and the beautiful face was twitching and distorted because of the pain. Her beautiful eyes were full of pain, and the blood at the corner of her mouth gushed out like it was free, spraying all over his head and face.
"Li … …"
Ding Ning's heart suddenly ached, trembling as he called out. How could he not know that it was Li who saved him, using her body to block the terrifying shockwave of the battle for him, and because of this she was also seriously injured.
Li was slightly stunned, gave him a very strange look, and immediately let go of him. Her tired face quickly restored the indifference that repelled people thousands of miles away. She frowned and nodded: "Next time be careful, you are too weak. This battlefield is not a place you should come to."
Ding Ning foolishly looked at Li's slightly sad and beautiful face, and did not care about her lecturing tone: "Li, don't you recognize me? I am Ding Ning. "
"Ding Ning? Should I know you? "
Li looked at him with a slightly surprised look, thinking that he, like other men, wanted to pursue her. His eyes flashed a touch of disgust, and with a slightly sarcastic tone, he said: "In addition, I'm not called Li, I'm Li Sining. If we weren't in the same camp, a weak chicken like you, I wouldn't even bother to save you. Well, do what you should do, don't play this old trick with me, want to pursue me, you're not qualified."
Ding Ning was tongue-tied, his old face blushed, and could not speak for a long time.
He did not expect that he was regarded by her as a lascivious person who wanted to take the opportunity to pursue her. This was simply a naked insult to his character.
However, he soon realized that something was wrong. Li was his woman, how could she not remember him? She was also so indifferent to him, and she did not even admit that she was Li, but called her Li Sining?
"Hurry up, this place is not suitable for you. Go to the place you should go."
Seeing that Ding Ning was stunned there, as if he still did not give up, Li said impatiently, waved his hand, and a strong force came. Ding Ning was unable to resist and flew into the air, like riding on a cloud, and landed in the same battlefield, but the strength of the two sides were mainly Demigod level, and only a few people were early Divine level experts.
