Chapter 18: The Time Is Ripe
When Li Haowen walked into the familiar room covered in blood, the mysterious man in black was already waiting there.
He stood there, his head bowed, not daring to look directly at the man he feared. The only thing worth doing for Li Haowen now is to cover the bleeding wound with his hand as much as possible in order to relieve his pain.
"Let's talk about it!" The mysterious man asked coldly.
"Subordinates should be damned, they were actually played around by that old man, but this is not the end, next time the subordinates will definitely take that old man's life with their own hands!" Li Haowen replied viciously.
The mysterious man chuckled and said unhurriedly, "There is no need for that at all, our purpose has been achieved." Don't forget, we didn't really fight those guys. ”
Li Haowen's eyes rolled and said, "My lord, your subordinates fully understand what you mean, and I was a little impulsive just now." Rest assured, your subordinates are always acting according to your jihua. ”
"That's good! After this battle, I believe that the Republic side will be very shocked, and they will have to think of other ways to eliminate this group of terrorists. And this method ......"
"This is to activate your troops, my lord! At that time, you will have complete control over the Republic, and you will not be able to prophesy any gods. Your Excellency, you can naturally become the master of this shijie! Li Haowen took the words of the man in black with a smile, and at this time he seemed to have completely forgotten that he was seriously injured, and he was just blindly flattering the man in black.
"Well, your words always smell like sycophants. It makes me uncomfortable! Don't say anything like that in the future! The man in black said dissatisfied.
"Yes, my subordinates understand. Are we going to wait for the Republic? Li Haowen asked tentatively.
"No, I'll go tomorrow! We have a lot of time, so we have to race against the clock. You can go down and prepare now. The man in black said categorically.
As soon as Li Hao heard that the person had given the order, he immediately bowed forward. said: "Since this is the case, then the subordinate will take his leave first." ”
"Wait, you'd better stop the bleeding first!" As he spoke, the man in black took out two bottles of potion from the drawer in front of him and threw them to Li Haowen.
"Speaking of which, Xiao Wanlong really had two hits, and he actually made you look like this. If I hadn't sent a stealth rescue to pick you up, I guess you might have been killed by him. It seems that even my troops need to be careful, after all, they need to preserve their strength to meet the real enemy. The man in black said calmly.
Li Haowen took the two bottles of potion and looked at it. One of the bottles, he recognized, was his life-saving medicine, a regular alms from the Lord. The other bottle contained a potion that he had never seen before.
"This is ......" Li Haowen was a little surprised.
"Do you remember Mo Yantian?" The man in black didn't answer him directly, but inexplicably asked about such an inconsequential topic.
"Of course my subordinates remember! Haven't you been letting your subordinates spy on him? Li Haowen was still a little confused.
The man in black waved his hand and said, "I don't want to talk about this but something else. If I'm not mistaken, that Mo Yantian once defeated your right-hand man Li Sinan, right? ”
"Not only that, but the kid also knocked down two of his men. That's also a first-class master! Li Haowen said excitedly.
"Well, I know that very well. It's Park Jae-ho and Smith, right? I know that Park Jae-ho's master. He turned out to be a master of your seventh department as well. One move, the pit viper's fangs don't know how many opponents he has knocked down, and he is a very terrifying warrior. His apprentice has completely inherited his mantle, and he has strengthened this trick a lot, so it can be said that he is a master even with you. Needless to say, Smith is also extraordinarily talented. Two people like this were defeated by the fledgling Mo Beitian. Isn't it hard to believe that their captain also lost to him after that? The man in black still spoke in his cold tone.
Li Haowen shook his head. Asked, "What do you mean, sir..."
"I mean, that Mo Yantian was able to defeat your subordinates not because of his own strength. There was a reason why he was able to do so much in such a short period of time. And this bottle of potion is that reason. The man in black replied.
"Oh? Could this potion be..."
"That's right, that's what you think. You go back and drink it now, I'm sure your injuries will heal soon and you should get something you didn't expect. The man in black nodded.
Li Haowen happily closed his mouth a little, and he immediately bowed to that person again: "Subordinate xiexie!" Please rest assured that your subordinates will do it soon, and you will be invited to come tomorrow. ”
He limped out of the room with that.
At this time. The afterglow of the setting sun poured in through the window.
"Humph! Juggernaut shijie? I never thought about it. I don't know if humans will survive yet, and maybe the rulers of this earth won't be humans in the future! The man in black half-squinted his eyes fell into deep thought.
The next day, the office of the Commander-in-Chief of the Republic exploded, and the Supreme Councillors did not know how to explain to the Commander-in-Chief the report that the Seventh Department had been almost wiped out by the terrorists. But with the facts in front of him, even if no one says it, he will still be furious, what should he do? All eyes were on the Grand Commander.
Strangely, the Grand Commander did not show any dissatisfied expression after reading the battle report. He asked very calmly: "Is Li Haowen, the minister of the seventh department, still alive?" ”
"Alive, he's out there waiting to be met right now." One of the parliamentarians replied.
"Oh, then you guys go down first, and then call Li Haowen in." The Arch-General said.
Several lawmakers shook their heads and left the office in reluctance.
It didn't take long for Li Haowen to walk in, still holding a cup of coffee in his hand.
"Your Excellency, this is your coffee." Li Haowen said with a smile.
"I didn't order coffee?"
"I know, but I think you should have a drink at this time to get some clarity on your mind." Li Haowen still had a smile on his face.
"Humph! You mean I'm not thinking clearly, right? The Grand Commander's expression suddenly became serious.
"No, you misunderstood me. Not now, it's a while. Because I want to introduce you to someone. Li Haowen said.
"Who? What do I want to see? ”
"Because you need it, and so does the republic!" Li Haowen put away the smile just now and said coldly.
"The republic needs? How do you know what the country needs? Don't forget that you are only a secret agency under the Parliament, and you have no right to intervene in the affairs of the government. ”
"It was in peacetime, and now it's going to be war." Li Haowen said.
"War? How can a handful of self-defeating terrorists be capable of provoking a war? The Grand Commander said disdainfully.
Li Haowen lifted his glasses and said with a smile: "Please don't say something against your will, I know that you just finished reading the battle report, and the agents sent by the Seventh Department were indeed wiped out." The subordinates only came back after nine deaths, and this has been clearly written in the report. So it's better to be aware of the current situation. ”
"Are you saying that the Seventh Division has no combat power at all in front of them?" The Grand Commander began to sweat from his forehead.
"That's what I meant. I don't think you want these people to hit the capital, do you? After all, the Republic has gone through so many ups and downs to get to where it is today, and it would be unimaginable to let the people know that they are in a false peace. We must find a way to extinguish the flames of war in the first place. But you've also seen how vulnerable the Seventh Division is right now, and we need help from outside to get through it! Li Haowen explained coldly.
When the Grand Commander heard him say this, he roughly understood in his heart, and he cautiously asked, "Then who is the person you want to introduce to me..."
"It's me, my Excellency!" The door to the office was pushed open, and a tall black figure stood in the doorway. (To be continued......)
