Chapter 108: Return to the South China Sea [Third Update, Ask for Subscription]
The clue is actually very obvious after it is found.
At the back of the island, Luo Lan found footprints that were much larger than giants, and there were many traces that looked like rhizomes dragging across the earth, all of which were heading towards the seaside without exception.
Luo Lan even found a lot of discarded bags in this direction, the sea on this side was not frozen, he looked at the sea for a long time, and a vague picture gradually became clear in his mind.
Although the fleet was temporarily retreating, those scholars knew that the world government would definitely not give up, so the "twisted tree spirit" Mao Kai left O'Hara with the people of the whole island last night, and Luo Lan did not know where it went.
The only thing that is known is that O'Hara is now a desert island, and the people on the island may settle down on another island in order to escape the World Government's hunt.
Luo Lan returned along the way, and on the way, he met the sailors who had just been dispatched, and they did not find any figures when they returned.
Back on the ship, Luo Lan immediately reported the situation here to the generals in the base, and they were also surprised, they didn't expect those people to be so decisive and leave their hometown that night.
The lieutenant generals once again gave the headquarters the latest information on O'Hara, and the disappearance of the scholars on the island had apparently disrupted the plans of the top echelons of the world government, who feared that the blank 100-year history would be deliberately disseminated by those who wished to do so, which would obviously cause great trouble for their rule.
"Zefa, let your disciples destroy O'Hara immediately, just in case, you also rush to the West Sea, if you find them, you should know what to do!"
The Five Elders gave Zefa the order, and only three hours later, the remaining five warships returned to O'Hara, and the ice was smashed to pieces by Sakasky with a meteor volcano.
The battleship surrounded O'Hara and fired at him in five directions at the same time, as if to vent yesterday's anger, and the shelling continued for half a day, emptying all the shells in the stockpile, and O'Hara completely disappeared from the map.
Obviously, without the obstruction of the Twisted Dryads, the mission was completed very smoothly, and although five ships were lost, the destruction of an island was also within acceptable limits.
The action of the world government was very fast, and the next day, the news that O'Hara, the holy land of archaeology, was destroyed by the navy with a demon slaying order because of the secret study of the historical text, appeared in major newspapers and magazines, and spread all over the world with the help of news birds.
The world was in an uproar, and the newspapers showed not only O'Hara, which was raging with artillery, but also a tree monster the size of more than half an island.
Scholars who studied ancient characters without permission were called demons in the press, and the tree monster became a demon tree.
According to the newspaper, this extremely destructive tree monster was an ancient demon tree discovered by O'Hara's demons, and it was a murderous demon that slaughtered the navy, and the navy had to launch a demon slaying order to kill him at great cost.
Luo Lan looked at the newspaper in his hand and was speechless, the group of guys in the world government reversed black and white, made something out of nothing, and had a good ability to distort the facts.
In order to maintain his face in front of the people, he didn't even want his face.
There is no doubt that after the newspaper is published, the attitude of the people of the world towards O'Hara will definitely be reversed. Scholars who study ancient characters without permission will also become street rats, and everyone shouts and beats them.
The effect of killing a hundred people is so obvious that even if O'Hara's scholars come forward to clarify, no one will believe them, and they are now demons in the eyes of the world.
Clarification will not only have no effect, but will also reveal one's own location, so that the second attack of the world government is not far off.
The fleet then set off for Ross Town, where it repaired for a day, and then sailed to the Great Voyage again, where the Demon Slayer ordered the fleet to return to the Navy Headquarters to resume its life, and Luo Lan also to return to the South China Sea with the sailors.
In general, Luo Lan did not contribute much in this incident, but he made a lot of military achievements, and the navy had a good impression of Luo Lan, and looked forward to his development in the naval headquarters.
Almost a month later, the warship and the fleet separated at Twin Capes and crossed the Upside Down Mountain again, and Luo Lan finally returned to the G31 branch base in the South China Sea three days later.
"I read the newspaper, how is it, what's going on with that tree monster? It doesn't seem to be going very well, but with so many powerful lieutenant generals following, it shouldn't be much trouble. Colonel Jia Cheng asked with a smile.
Luo Lan thought about the difference between the newspaper and the actual situation, and didn't know how to answer for a while, if they told them that the Demon Slaying Order was actually only an empty island, and not only that, but also lost 5 warships, how would these people react?
After thinking about it, those lieutenant generals told him that the details must be kept secret. Otherwise, the Navy will probably lose face.
"I'll tell you good news, the documents for the major's application have been approved, which means that from now on you will be the major of the South China Sea branch."
Hearing this, Luo Lan also grinned, didn't he work so hard just to temper himself and climb to a high position?
Colonel Jia Cheng took out a file bag from the drawer and handed it to him, and when he opened it, there was a small notebook like a certificate of honor, with the Navy Headquarters Marin Fando as a faint background. A few words on it read:
Our department affirmed the great contribution made by Second Lieutenant Luo Lan to the Navy, and after the unanimous decision of our department, awarded Second Lieutenant Luo Lan the rank of major of the South China Sea Branch.
"Okay, I know that the Demon Slaying Order operation is a naval secret, and I don't bother to ask about the details, you should be very tired after so long of traveling and traveling, just come back safely, go back and rest quickly."
Colonel Jia Cheng patted Luo Lan on the shoulder and sent him away with a smile.
……
After going back, Luo Lan came directly to his cultivation room.
After seeing the peak combat power of this world, Luo Lan felt that his strength was really pitifully weak for the first time.
No matter how many means you have to save your life, you will be pale and powerless in front of the real strong, and if someone else can kill you once, of course, they can kill you a second time.
This gave Luo Lan a great sense of crisis, there are many people in this world who are stronger than him, if his vision is too low and he always focuses on the South China Sea, his future achievements may be quite limited.
That's not the result he wants, his goal is the Navy Headquarters, it's the New World, where he can make some achievements, that kind of life is meaningful, how can he stay in the South China Sea all the time?
It seems that the process of going to the Navy headquarters should almost be accelerated.
