The secret stronghold of the American Temple of War is located in a township in New York State and is a small ranch.

The ranch is built on the hill, and you can vaguely see various styles of wooden houses on the mountain, which are the residences of the members of the American God of War Temple.

When Kelly arrived at the pasture, there were herds of cattle and sheep in the pasture, and an old man with gray hair and a beard rode through the herd on horseback.

Kelly parked the car at the gate of the ranch and walked into the ranch, walking straight to the white-haired old man.

Although he didn't know the white-haired old man, even the first time he met, he showed his respect for the old man in this way.

Because, he knew that the old man was a member of the God of War Temple, and he was a half-step God Realm powerhouse.

This is also the tradition of the American God of War Temple, and there must be a half-step God Realm powerhouse to 'take care of the ranch' - to be in charge of the affairs of the God of War Temple and assist the Special Operations Bureau in dealing with various crisis problems.

Previously, this role was played by Butters, a legendary powerhouse of the American Special Operations Bureau.

Now, Butters is dead and replaced by an old man.

"Hello. ”

After a few moments, Kelly came up to the white-haired old man and bowed slightly to say hello, his posture extremely low.

"You came a little earlier than I expected, and it seems that you didn't go to the White House, and you came directly. ”

The white-haired old man sat on his horse and looked at Kelly condescendingly, his gaze swept over Kelly's broken and bandaged arm, and finally rested on Kelly's face, "So, it's not stupid for Butters to choose you as the head of the Special Operations Bureau.

However, you guys are stupid this time.

To be precise, you were blinded by selfishness, made stupid decisions, and ended up paying a terrible price!"

Kelly continued to maintain a bowing posture, his head bowed, not daring to speak, not even gasping for air.

As the old man said, he didn't go to the White House first, but came here because he knew that last night's war would bring changes in the global pattern ahead of schedule, and in response to this change and the possible retaliation of the Chinese martial arts community, the Temple of the God of War could play a better role than the White House.

And in the same way, he and Butters tried their best to risk going to war against the Chinese martial arts community, insisting on taking Qin Feng away to avenge the deputy of the US Special Warfare Bureau and wash away the shame of the US Special Warfare Bureau and even the entire United States, which is only a superficial reason, or it can be a cover.

Their real purpose was to capture Qin Feng alive, and then pry open Qin Feng's mouth, get the mysterious techniques that Qin Feng had learned, and enhance their respective strengths.

"Don't you want to say something?"

The white-haired old man spoke again, his tone calm, but it shook Kelly's heart violently.

"I'm sorry, but I made a decision that was detrimental to the U.S. Special Operations Bureau and the United States as a whole, affecting the Temple of War. ”

Kelly hesitated, but still spoke, not daring to talk about last night's incident, nor did he dare to answer the words of the white-haired old man, just apologized.

"Forget it, since you don't want to say it, I don't have the heart to listen. ”

When the white-haired old man heard this, he directly lost interest, and said lightly: "I know that you came here because you were worried that the Huaxia martial arts world would retaliate.

Your worries are unnecessary, and the Huaxia martial arts world will not do that. ”

"Why?"

Kelly asked subconsciously.

"First, before making a move, Butters made a clarification and explanation that he had no intention of targeting the Huaxia martial arts community, but only against the little guy named You Long, and did not take the initiative to take action against other people in the Huaxia martial arts community.

Moreover, his words and deeds were heard and seen by everyone at that time, and now they have been disseminated, which shows at least superficially that the US Special Operations Bureau and even the entire US martial arts community did not collude with the dark forces.

In this way, if the Chinese martial arts circles start a war against the American martial arts circles, they will not get the support of other forces, but will be blocked.

Well, I can even think of some people's reasons - this would affect the unity of the Justice League side.

Whereas...... This is where Butters is smarter and smarter than you. ”

The white-haired old man talked eloquently, and he knew everything that happened last night as if he were there in person.

"Yes, Mr. Butters did a clever job, but alas...... Alas......" Kelly chimed in, but didn't know what to say next, and finally turned into a sigh.

"Second, and most importantly.

There are too many forces involved in this matter, especially the dark forces.

Although the Dark Council and the Assassin Alliance are now separated, as long as one side is devastated, it will be united in an instant, and the long-dormant Temple of Death will appear, and we even predict that the Temple of Death has already appeared because of this incident.

Also, if nothing else, Ogholas is in retreat at the Temple of Death. ”

The white-haired old man ignored Kelly and continued: "In this case, will the Chinese martial arts world go to war against the American martial arts world?

Will the other forces of justice allow war?"

"Thank you for your guidance and teachings. ”

Hearing the white-haired old man say the second reason, the worry in Kelly's heart instantly disappeared, he bowed again and thanked him, and then asked, "So, what should I do with the US Special Operations Bureau next?"

"You just need to do one thing, tell the politicians to settle down and stop clamoring for sanctions and retaliation.

If you want the United States to continue to take the lead, you should honestly develop the economy, science and technology, and the military, continue to brainwash all over the world with universal culture, and don't think about doing things everywhere. ”

The white-haired old man said lightly, but there was a feeling of pointing out the country, "What's more, the affairs of the martial arts world have the way of being handled by the martial arts world, and there is no need for them to interfere!"

"Yes!"

Kelly was the first to take the order.

The white-haired old man stopped talking nonsense and rode away directly.

"By the way, Master, the Lofik family wants Master Lewis to get out of the customs early and return to Lofik Manor. ”

Seeing this scene, Kelly remembered that Nikus @Lofik asked him to help, and hurriedly said to the white-haired old man's back.

"You tell them that Lewis is at the critical juncture of the retreat to impact the half-step divine realm, and he will not go back unless the impact fails.

As for what they are worried about, just as much as you are worried about, it is all in vain, and those things will not happen again. ”

The white-haired old man replied without hesitation, and when the words fell, he rode into the herd.

Kelly was stunned at first, and then realized that the white-haired old man was right, and turned away from the ranch.

...... It was the evening of the day Kelly went to the Temple of the God of War.

Barkley @ Claire returned to the UK, and did not even return to the Claire family estate, so he went straight to the isolated island where his father Lampadi @ Claire was, and reported everything that happened in the United States in person in detail and facts.

"I'm sorry, father, but I didn't listen to your teachings, and I made a big mistake, which caused Barak to die and caused trouble for the family. ”

After Barkley's report, he bowed deeply, lowered his head, and confessed his mistake to his father, Lampadi.

Lampati didn't say a word, but closed his eyes again.

Seeing this, Barkley's heart became more uneasy, so that he did not dare to speak again, and he did not even dare to breathe.

Then the father and son, one sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, and the other hunched over with his eyes wide open.

an hour.

After a full hour, Lampati @Claire didn't open his eyes, as if the old monk had settled down, motionless.

"Father...... Father, what if the people in the Huaxia martial arts world retaliate against us?"

Barkley couldn't help but break his silence and ask the question, which was the purpose of his first visit to the island after returning to the UK.

"What you're worried about isn't going to happen. ”

Lampati still didn't open his eyes, but he opened his mouth to respond.

"Why?"

Barkley blurted out.

"Barkley, you've really let me down.

I regret it now that I let you be the patriarch in the first place. ”

This time, Lampati opened his eyes with a cold expression and an even colder tone.

"Poof-" Lampadi's words rang in his ears, and sensing Lampadi's dissatisfaction, Barkley fell to his knees in fright.

"If the Huaxia martial arts world wants to make a move, it will first attack the dark forces, not us. ”

Lampati explained, and then said: "As for the reason, you can think for yourself - the most secret in this world, the rest of the family does not know, you know very well. ”

"Father...... Father, I know......" Barkley's heart moved, and something immediately came to mind, but when he saw Lampati's indifferent face, he swallowed back the words that followed.

"Let's go. ”

Seeing this, Lampati opened his mouth directly to drive people away.

Barkley hesitated, but didn't dare to say anything more, got up and bowed deeply to Lampati before turning away.

"After what you said happened, the Temple of Death will definitely appear, the global chaos will begin, and the family will continue to hide and be silent as before. ”

When Barkley walked out for nearly ten meters, Lampati couldn't help but remind, "Because, in this battle, the Claire family is not qualified to participate!"
