"That is our Dragon King! Our boss! How can you let him carry out the mission alone!" Jian Feng roared. Night Fire stared at Jian Feng and said, "Because I believe the boss can definitely resolve the crisis and complete the mission!" "You’re talking nonsense!" Jian Feng shouted angrily, "If we’re not by his side, who will prevent unlikely events? What if there’s a stray bullet? What if there’s an assassin? Can you ensure nothing unexpected will happen?" "Ensure my ass!" Jian Feng roared, "If you could ensure it, the boss wouldn’t have been missing for months on Lijia Continent! If you could ensure it, you damn well should have fought the Three Black Corps back then! If the boss hadn’t survived that time, shouldn’t we be commemorating the boss’s third year by now?" Night Fire was taken aback, falling silent for a moment. Neither of them spoke, leaving only Jian Feng’s heavy breathing. After a long while, Jian Feng said in a deep voice, "Let me out, I’ll take responsibility for everything, even if it means being expelled from Dragon Tooth, I accept it!" "No way!" Night Fire said in a deep voice. "Night Fire!" Jian Feng shouted angrily, "You are you! I am me! I only acknowledge Yang Chen! Only him as the Dragon King! I don’t care about anything else! Let me go! Did you hear me?" "Impossible!" Night Fire sighed softly, saying in a deep voice, "Do you know who locked you up?" "I don’t care who! Let me out!" Jian Feng shouted angrily. "It’s Yang Chen!" Night Fire disregarded Jian Feng, continuing to speak, "Do you know why the boss knocked you out and locked you up?" Jian Feng was silent, breathing heavily. Night Fire said, "It’s to protect you. Don’t tell me you don’t know the nature of what you did! Open defiance of orders, rebellion! Just these two charges are enough to put you on the Guard’s tribunal! Expulsion? Do you really think it would be that simple! The boss did this just to shut the big leaders’ mouths, otherwise, what would become of our Dragon Tooth? What kind of treatment would we face? Don’t think you can even leave the base, let alone protect the boss, do you believe that?" Jian Feng was silent. Night Fire stood up and said, "Think about it!" After speaking, Night Fire closed the window, leaving the confinement room back in darkness! A roar and the sound of fists striking the wall came from the confinement room. Night Fire didn’t turn back; once some decisions are made, they must be carried out with determination. Members of the Black Corps were still waiting. Number Two was getting impatient, coming up to Number One, asking, "Boss, how long are we going to wait here?" "Wait until the information is confirmed!" Number One said in a deep voice. "What does it mean to be confirmed? Didn’t they report back a couple of days ago, saying they went back to Ningchuan or something?" Number Two said impatiently. Number One glared at him and said coldly, "Are you the commander, or am I the commander?" "Alright, alright!" Number Two raised his hands in surrender, "You are the boss, I’ll listen to you!" After speaking, Number Two turned and left. They had been here for ten days already; the taste of the jungle wasn’t pleasant, with all sorts of insects, humid air, and no signs of human habitation. Even wanting to solve a physiological issue was challenging, let alone conjuring up fantasies. Most importantly, their provisions were running low; they were about to run out of supplies. Having done nothing and stayed here for more than ten days was simply unbearable for him. Number One was flipping through the information sent back domestically on a tablet, studying it carefully. He knew who the opponent was, the legendary Asura Hall! They were merely the vanguard, or in other words—cannon fodder! Bluntly speaking, these people were sent here to die! Only he knew the identity of the opposing side; the others were still in the dark. The opponent was from Asura Hall! Not someone these underlings could handle! In his view, his subordinates were just complacent jerks standing on past achievements, completely unaware of what a true master and real terror were. If they really faced Asura Hall, he thought these people probably wouldn’t survive, let alone fight them! So, he was now gathering as much intelligence as possible. Maybe... he had a chance! If he grasped it well, it might be another opportunity for him! Thinking of this, Number One appeared even more excited. At this moment, a new message arrived. Number One opened it and discovered it was a short video. After lowering the volume, Number One clicked play. The video showed footage of several vehicles in motion, then the screen turned, displaying a road sign. Seeing this scene, Number One’s face suddenly changed. He watched it again, memorized the road sign, and immediately opened a map app to search for this road. Upon finding it, Number One’s face grew grim. He quickly reopened the video, glanced at the sky, and confirmed it was noon. It was already afternoon now. This meant... the opponent was about to arrive. Immediately, Number One packed up the tablet, took out some equipment, and walked into the jungle. In a little while, Number One returned and shouted, "Blake, come over here!" The designations of Number One and Number Two were just codenames for this mission; among themselves, they mostly called each other by their names. "Boss." Number Two came over. Number One handed Number Two a tablet, saying, "The information from the front is too slow; I need to meet up with them. You take over command. I’ll send you any updates immediately. If anything happens, adapt on the fly, understood?" "Me, in command?" Number Two was thrilled. Though he was Number Two, representing the vice commander, he actually had no power and was just a mouthpiece for Number One, without real authority. Now letting him command meant that he was the commander! Number Two couldn’t help but be excited. "Yes!" Number One said solemnly, "I believe you can do it, don’t disappoint me!" "Rest assured, boss! I absolutely have no problem!" Number Two said excitedly. Number One nodded, slung his backpack, and walked into the jungle. Once Number One left, Number Two excitedly said to everyone, "Brothers, the boss is gone. Now I’m in command for the time being. Go catch some game, let’s have a party tonight!" "Wow!" For more chapters visıt novel•fire.net The crowd cheered in excitement. Number Two thought that since the boss was no longer around, it wouldn’t matter if they finished the last of their supplies; at worst, they’d send someone into the country to get some more goodies. Just as the crowd was cheering, a convoy of vehicles stopped in front of a post along the border. The people inside the post had come out early to welcome them. Yang Chen got out of the car and approached the welcoming team in front of him. The captain saluted Yang Chen and said, "Welcome, leader, to inspect!" Yang Chen said plainly, "I’m not any leader, nor am I here to inspect. Report the situation at the border to me!" "Yes!" The captain responded immediately, "Thirteen days ago, we discovered a squad loitering at the border, fully equipped. We promptly launched an attack, but the other side quickly retreated abroad without counterattacking!" "Where is the location?" Yang Chen asked.
