Chapter 11 – Ultimately, It Is a World of the Strong!

Volume 3: Rising Winds and Clouds

At the mention of the name Fang Bai, the Military's super powerhouses No. 1 through No. 10 fell completely silent.

This man had deep ties with the Military. More importantly, Fang Bai was once one of the candidates for the position of War God and was also Human Sequence 11!

His terrifying strength was enough to rival the War God himself.

Against a powerhouse of this caliber, there was no one left in the Military who could handle him except for the War God.

"Fang Bai, is it?"

Upon hearing the name, the War God finally stopped tapping his index finger on the table. He picked up the water glass in front of him and took a large gulp.

Then, he pressed his hands against his temples and rubbed them gently.

"Understood. I will handle this matter personally. Sigh…"

"By the way, No. 1, how is Commander Lin's condition?"

A young woman sitting next to the War God spoke up slowly.

"Commander Lin overexerted his abilities recently and is still recuperating. Combined with Fang Bai's last assassination attempt, the doctors estimate he might need another week or so of quiet rest."

The speaker was Super Soldier No. 1. On her shoulder, a Little Soul Beast-slightly smaller than Wen Yu's-was trembling slightly.

"I see."

The War God nodded gently. Seeing that No. 7 wanted to continue, he waved his hand.

"Let's stop here for today. The meeting is adjourned for now."

It was obvious that the War God already had a massive headache from the issues regarding the Modu Settlement and Fang Bai. Besides, the remaining intelligence likely wouldn't be more troublesome than these two problems.

Knock, knock, knock, knock…

Before anyone could even leave their seats, a series of urgent knocks suddenly rang out.

Following that, the door to the conference room was pulled wide open!

The person who opened the door was the War God's personal secretary.

Only she was permitted to enter directly while the War God was in a meeting.

Of course, she would only be so "impolite" in the event of emergency intelligence.

"What is it?"

Seeing the woman burst into the room, the War God's brow furrowed instantly.

"Lord War God, emergency intelligence! Sequence 2 is currently at the Mudanjiang Settlement and is initiating a call to Headquarters!"

"What? Which Sequence?"

Seeing the War God's shocked expression, the secretary repeated herself in very standard, clear Mandarin.

"Sequence… Two!"

"Patch the video call into the conference room immediately! And!"

The War God glanced at the Super Soldiers below him and spoke with a grave tone.

"You all stay as well."

Meanwhile, Wen Yu was sitting in the Communications Room, boredly teasing Pink One-Eye.

Seeing One-Eye's pitiful gaze, Wen Yu couldn't help but tighten the clothes on the dog's body.

Looking at the empty screen, Wen Yu rubbed his head.

"So slow! How inefficient!"

In his heart, Wen Yu labeled the Military as "bloated."

He then looked at One-Eye in his arms and Xing on top of his head. After a moment of thought, he spoke directly to his two Soul Pets.

"You two go out first. Wander around wherever you like, just don't forget to come back tonight."

Upon hearing Wen Yu's words, One-Eye barked three times excitedly, leaped to the floor, and dashed toward the door.

One-Eye's "big gun" was already itching for action…

Xing also spread its wings and flew directly off Wen Yu's head.

"Oh, and try not to kill anyone!"

"Woof woof!"

"Got it, Boss."

This was also a calculated move by Wen Yu. He had learned from Jiang Wentao in the Treasure Land that the Military's Super Soldier No. 1 had the same Class as him. Since the Military already knew his Class, hiding his Soul Pets was effectively the same as hiding his true strength!

As for the Little Soul Beast…

Wen Yu looked at the Little Soul Beast on his shoulder and slowly shook his head.

As Human Sequence 2, he would have to deal with the Military sooner or later; there was no great need to hide his Class.

Furthermore, his current strength didn't require him to hide or keep a low profile!

Moreover, revealing his Class while preventing them from seeing his Soul Pets would undoubtedly leave them room for imagination!

And that room for imagination could also be called-wariness!

By the time Wen Yu had finished three cups of hot tea, the scene on the screen suddenly shifted, moving from the Communications Room to a luxurious grand conference hall.

In front of the camera, a young man clad in a military uniform was the first to greet Wen Yu.

"Hello. I am the Military's War God. I am also Sequence 3. It is a pleasure to meet you."

…

Wen Yu studied the young man on the other side of the screen.

Likewise, the War God was sizing Wen Yu up from head to toe.

A long black trench coat, with a somewhat primitive-looking pendant hanging around his neck.

He looked to be about the same age as himself, with quite ordinary features.

But none of that was the point.

The point was the aura he shared, as well as the Little Soul Beast perched on his shoulder.

A confident, sharp temperament-this represented a powerful self-assurance in his own strength and extensive combat experience!

And the Little Soul Beast on his shoulder represented his Class.

"Soul Master?" the War God asked with a hint of a question in his voice.

Wen Yu nodded and spoke at the same time.

"Isn't your No. 1 also a Soul Master?"

Seeing the War God across the screen frown slightly, Wen Yu continued.

"Jiang Wentao told me. By the way, how are the families of Jiang Wentao, Monkey, and Big Bear doing?"

The War God recalled for a moment before speaking.

"They have already been granted the status of families of the martyred. Supplies are being distributed to them monthly."

Wen Yu pondered for a moment and slowly nodded.

"Give them a bit more."

The War God nodded. "A small matter."

Hearing this, Wen Yu suddenly smiled.

"I thought people from your Government would be all about schemes and nitpicking over every little thing. But you, you're not bad!"

The War God slowly shook his head.

"That depends on the matter. Things like this are our duty. You, on the other hand, seem to have some history with Jiang Wentao's group."

Wen Yu nodded directly. "They are Heroes!"

"All the soldiers of our Military are Heroes!"

…

The two remained silent for a long while until Wen Yu spoke first.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Wen Yu, Sequence 2!"

"You can call me Kuangliu, the current War God of the Military, Sequence 3. May I ask why you took the initiative to contact the Military? Is there something you need?"

Wen Yu nodded. "Just now, when I entered Central City, I killed someone! By the way, what was that idiot's name again?"

"Xiao Longtao."

Seeing Wen Yu turn his gaze toward him, Wang Zhigang immediately answered from the side.

"His name was Xiao Longtao. He seemed to be the officer in charge of liaising with you all here."

The War God-or Kuangliu-nodded. "If he's dead, he's dead. It doesn't matter. Even a Mutated pig could handle that post."

"No, that's not what I meant."

Wen Yu shook his head and continued. "I heard he has a father who seems to be at the Military Headquarters. I'm not sure what his position is."

"I'm the type of person who hates trouble. Since I killed his son, he'll definitely seek revenge against me. I want to resolve this matter right now!"

"Wait a moment."

Kuangliu nodded without much hesitation and then made a gesture to his secretary.

The secretary understood immediately and walked out of the conference room.

In less than three minutes, the secretary returned, carrying a sheet of paper.

"Well, this Xiao-whatever's father is currently a minor head in the Military's Personnel Department. How do you want to handle him?"

"Kill him."

Kuangliu nodded without hesitation.

"No. 8, handle this. Keep it clean."

No. 8 gave Kuangliu a military salute, and then his figure slowly vanished.

Sequence 2 and Sequence 3.

With a casual tone, as if having an everyday conversation between friends, the two had decided the life and death of one person-and likely many more!

Furthermore, it was foreseeable that in less than two days, the two would completely forget this incident. They would never again remember that there was once a person named Xiao Longtao.

Nor would they remember that they had ordered the death of the man's father.

Ultimately, this was a world where the strong decided everything!
