Reborn as the Darling of the Delta

After hanging up the phone, Rometheus let out a deep sigh of helplessness. Did this Nameless guy really hate him that much? He'd already gone to great lengths, hadn't he?

"What are you still doing in my room? If you have nothing to do, get out and close the door behind you."

Rometheus's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at the disgruntled Zero with a grin, saying:

"Oh dear son, you know Xiao Hao isn't doing well in school!"

"I know, he used to complain to me every day, so I quickly took your books and you with me when we went out."

"Well, think about it. You said you would protect Xiao Hao for the rest of your life, but look at you... you're illiterate just like Xiao Hao (in Rometheus's opinion). One of you two has to know a little bit about everything, right? Are you going to watch Xiao Hao be locked up in the Special Operations Department and keep studying?"

After these few words, our [Zero] also successfully fell into deep thought. It was indeed not good for him to protect Xiao Hao without being educated. What if there were things Xiao Hao didn't know, and he calmly revealed them...?

Rometheus: Hmph, what a big boy you are! I created you myself, so controlling you won't be easy. You'd better study hard, so your old man can tell the higher-ups that you're still learning and can't be sent to the battlefield right away.

"Then could you inject the knowledge directly into my head like you did with the injections before?"

[Zero] After thinking for a moment, she made up her mind. Rather than having to memorize things while crying like Xiao Hao, she felt she could endure the pain of getting a shot.

"No, what are you thinking? Besides, you have to trust your brain. You'll definitely learn things very quickly, you know? Come on, let's take a look at what addition and subtraction are now."

"I know that..."

Chapter 264 Hamk: My butt feels cold.

In Demoulin's office at the space base.

At this moment, Demulan frowned, looking at the photo of "Zero" sent by Rometheus on his phone, along with the text: "Demulan, my dear eldest son has been found! I have to thank you for this. Don't worry, I'll take good care of your good son-in-law. But, don't tell Jacob I found 'Zero' yet!" (?▽`???)

"What exactly is this Rometheus trying to do? What kind of 'good son' is he? Does he really think this android is his own son? It seems that being single for too long can really make one's head go a little crazy. I need to find Xiao Hao quickly and tie him up in my room, Kami."

The thought of that bastard Rometheus still not finding Xiao Hao, and even showing off his "zero" in front of her, made Demulan grit his teeth in anger. He hadn't found the person he wanted and was still showing off in front of her. What was there to show off?

Furious, Demulan called Mary in, determined to channel her anger and resentment into tackling the pile of unfinished tasks on her desk.

"Mary, how are things going with Hamk? When can we set off?"

Demulan desperately needs an outlet for his anger, and that outlet will be our legendary backstabber.

"Ms. Demurean, I have already selected the personnel and am now sending people to distribute equipment to them. We can launch an attack in at most two days. This time, I have also specially arranged for two heavy tanks developed by Hamk. The firepower of these two tanks will be more than enough to withstand Hamk's repeated bombardments."

"Yes, well done. Let me know when everything is arranged. I will personally lead the team this time."

After Demulan finished speaking, he looked at the M700 placed to the side. That guy Hamk, it was too easy for him to be shot with one shot. His Polaris... it really hadn't seen blood in a long time.

Rometheus: Hmph, so you know that being single for too long will make your head... Wait a minute, you seem to have some kind of psychological problem! This... I can't cure this, you're hopeless.

"Oh? Ms. Demulan, are you leading the team yourself again this time? Won't that be a bit..."

Demulan waved her hand. This Mary was fine in every other way, except that she was too worried about her. How could she doubt her abilities as her secretary? She was just a Hamk, and Demulan would simply eliminate her.

"No, Ms. Demulan, I was thinking that it would be a bit of an overreaction for you to go in person. If you were to go yourself, I don't think Hamk and the others would have any chance to fight back."

Demoulin: What?! This is blatant flattery! Damn it, Demoulin, what's wrong with you? How can you actually feel happy after hearing such obsequious words?!

"Ahem, yes, you're right, but you should know that Hamk and I have a long-standing grudge. If I can't kill him directly, I'll still have some regrets."

After saying that, Demulan also indicated that Mary could leave, as he needed to get on with his business. He was mainly trying not to laugh; Mary was quite eloquent, far superior to Rometheus.

Rometheus: You bastard! If I were to say a few nice words to you, you'd just hold that broken knife to my throat and ask if I'm Rometheus again. You're just playing the double standard here! Pah!

. . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . .

"What? You're saying you've completely restored my Longbow Valley? And even built a few extra buildings along the way?"

Inside the Diamond Queen Hotel, Reese shockedly removed his sunglasses, staring at the middle-aged man in front of him with disbelief.

"Lord Erres, there's no need to get so excited. This is just basic stuff, hehe. The United States has given us ample resources, so the repairs are being done faster than we expected. Now we just need to upgrade slowly. Lord Erres, if you have any ideas, you can tell us."

Reis: Holy crap, didn't you tell me it would take about a week to repair? You've only been here a few days and you're already telling me it's all repaired? If I remember correctly, the old Garbi site was almost completely destroyed by that bastard Hamk.

"Ahem, well, I don't have any other requests, just that it won't interfere with me taking people out to cause trouble, right?"

"Of course, Lord Reis. As long as you can guarantee the safety of our two construction teams, our construction schedule will not be delayed."

Upon hearing this, Reis immediately assured everyone that there would be no problems with their safety in Longbow Valley. After all, the two construction teams were hired by the United States, and he was indeed responsible for protecting their safety. He didn't know how he would explain it to the United States if anything went wrong.

But now that everything's almost done, well, about that guy Hamk...

After getting rid of the middle-aged man, Reis couldn't wait to take out his phone and call Said. He was now eager to tear that damned Hamk to pieces. As long as that bastard lived in this world, Reis would feel disgusted and angry about him.

"Hey, old Sai, what are you doing? Hahaha, you're the only one who truly understands me. Nothing much, bro. I've pretty much taken care of things here. How about it, want to come with me and kill that damn Hamk?"

Said was still planting corn with Wuming when he heard that Reis had finally finished dealing with his business, so he immediately patted Wuming on the butt.

Anonymous: ? ? ? ? ? ? (I'm about to start creating some panic)

"Okay! Rhys, are you sure you're ready? I have a team ready to go with me to attack Hamk at any time. Just set a time, and I'm available anytime."

"Alright! Let me think about it. How about the day after tomorrow? Speed ​​is of the essence. Let's not give that Hamk guy any more chances to breathe. I'll get my weapons ready tomorrow and we'll go and kill that damn bastard!"

"Okay, I'll take the only tank I have here!"

Anonymous: Huh? The only one? A tank? Looks like this Said isn't exactly honest either.

"Hey, no need, brother. I've got money. You just bring your people and we'll meet up. I'll give you two heavy tanks right here, and if you want, I can even give you Hamk's big tank. It's just that Ouroboros district..."

Saeed also stated directly:

"I'm already grateful that you're willing to give me so much, so the territory is yours."

Chapter 265: Bastard?

Upon hearing this, Reis exclaimed, "Hey! I didn't expect Said to be so sensible now!" Reis was quite pleased with this. He was very happy to see that his future general's emotional intelligence had improved so much. It seemed that he hadn't given his gold to the wrong person after all!

"Hahaha, alright, since you've said so, Brother Said, what else can I say? The day after tomorrow, let's just meet up and go take down that bastard Hamk."

After discussing the time with Said, Reis hung up the phone with a satisfied smile. Oh, he would be expanding his territory by the day after tomorrow. Although the Ouroboros district was just as poor as the dam, it didn't matter. Once it became his colony, he was willing to help renovate the buildings there if the original inhabitants were sensible.

"Oh, right, should we tell the US about my plans? After all, this huge piece of land we seized... they might find it useful?"

Even Reis himself didn't know that at some point, he started to become more and more like a lackey of the United States. Whenever Reis thought that the United States was standing behind him, he would sometimes be fearless even of missiles from the space base. After all, the United States behind him was not something that the Hafk Group could mess with.

"Oh well, I think I should make a call."

After thinking about it, Reis decided to see if the United States had any suggestions or ideas.

"Hey, what's up with calling me at this hour? Have you run out of money? Or are you short on military equipment?"

When the call connected, a familiar voice came through the phone, still as arrogant and haughty as ever. But it was precisely this tone and attitude that kept Reis in check.

"Hey boss, oh no no, sir, these two construction teams you gave me are really amazing. They've finished repairing Longbow Valley in just a few days."

"Oh, that's normal, Reis. We hired a Chinese construction team at great expense. You know, China's construction speed is far ahead of the rest of the world. It's normal for someone like you who hasn't seen much of the world to be surprised. But don't tell me you called just to talk about this."

Reis quickly explained:

"How could that be, sir? I wouldn't bother you with such a small matter. I just noticed that things have stabilized a bit here in Longbow Valley, so I'm planning to team up with Said to take down Hamk. And I assure you, this mission will absolutely not fail."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed intrigued by Reis's words and asked:

"Oh? So you're already looking for trouble with Hamk? I've already sent you a lot of strategic resources, don't tell me you're going to ask me for them again."

"Oh, sir, no, the resources you sent me are more than enough. I wanted to ask if you need that Ouroboros district after I take it over from Hamk?"

Hearing Reese's sycophantic tone on the phone, the man chuckled disdainfully. So this was Asara's most ruthless dog? How come he'd become so obedient here? But this land... would belong to the United States sooner or later.

"No need. Take it and do whatever you want with it. We don't even care about that small piece of land. Just work harder and take over the entire Asara region as soon as possible, understand?"

After listening, Reis nodded repeatedly. He himself didn't know why he felt a sense of awe towards this person on the other end of the phone whom he had never met before. This was really not like the style of Asara, the strongest man.

Rometheus: Well, although I haven't studied psychology, I did work with Zoya in experiments back then, so I already know about your clinical symptoms. You're just a jerk, purely a jerk. You'll behave after being taught a lesson by someone more capable than you.

"Since you've been so loyal, I'll transfer another 5 million Haf coins to you. Remember your goal: bring Asara into your fold, understand?"

When Reis heard that another 5 million Haff coins had been transferred to him, he was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly in agreement.

After hanging up the phone, Reese's smile vanished, replaced by a grim expression as he cursed:

"Damn it, you're putting on airs in front of me. If you weren't rich, I'd still be all smiles at you. I'm lucky I didn't just elbow you right away."

Rometheus: Huh?! A face change! Damn, you fooled me! But it's okay, after all, I haven't studied psychology. What I said before was just my own guess, hehehe. (???`?)

"Damn it, I was thinking they'd pay for some factories or something there, and then it would all be mine. But instead they're telling me I have to figure it out myself? I'm too lazy to spend money on that lousy place. I'll just send a few squads over to keep an eye on it."

But then Reese thought to himself, he had earned 5 million U.S. dollars for nothing by being a grandson for just 5 minutes, which didn't seem so bad.

Reis: Just watch! I can earn 100 million Haff coins in a minute. I'm still the best money-maker in Asara!

"Damn it, you want me to help you take down Asara? You bunch of cowards who only know how to hide in the back just want to take Asara into your own hands, right? You really think I'm stupid? Damn it, didn't you even look at my file before cooperating with me? I've studied abroad, and I've slept with your American women!"

Reese really couldn't explain anymore to these people who always thought he was a fool. He was just a bit rough-looking, but why did they all assume he was brainless? Did this high-ranking American official really think he could completely outmaneuver him?

"Damn it, Saeed is still the best. He's a real idiot and doesn't play any tricks on me. But his only downside is that he's a bit stupid. If he really becomes my general, I can't handle too many things for him. I'm afraid he'll just shut down his brain."

Anonymous: Huh? You mean this guy who doesn't look like a good person is stupid? Indeed... I've never seen a leader be completely dominated by a woman with a Chinese math workbook, and even have to secretly make me finish it for him with two steamed buns.

Saeed: Damn, you! Those were two steamed buns! Besides, you seemed to be enjoying them.

Chapter 266 Weilong: Xiaohao, I'm here to save you!

Said immediately informed Zhang Hao of his plan to eliminate Hamk together the day after tomorrow, and said that he and Reis had already discussed the allocation of resources.

"Oh? You mean that guy Reis not only said he'd give you all the resources and his tank from Hamk, but he's also donating two heavy tanks to you? Where did he get so much money?"

Zhang Hao couldn't help but wonder if Reis had really sided with Hafk. Good heavens, even rebuilding his Longbow Valley would be a huge expense, and now he actually had the money to directly sponsor Said with two heavy tanks. The maintenance costs for these tanks were also considerable! Zhang Hao felt that apart from Hafk, who currently had the strength to do this, there really wasn't anyone else.

Reese: Heh, looks like a GTI bumpkin. I'm the strongest and richest man in Assara! Don't look at me with your bumpkin eyes, you know? If I told you I still have over a billion dollars, wouldn't you all explode?

“Yeah, I find it strange too. Even Youssef wouldn’t give Reis that much financial support.”

Said said he wasn't sure about this either, because the common characteristic of their Asara leaders was that they were poor. In fact, Reis was also poor before. After finding part of the old king's treasure, he began to squander it, and soon he was broke.

"By the way, Xiao Hao, if you're free the day after tomorrow, would you like to come here and help me guard the dam? I'm worried that someone might try to raid our base while I'm out with my troops."

"No problem, Uncle Said. I'll bring people over tomorrow, so don't worry!"

Zhang Hao said: "Oh, what kind of talk is that? I'm the strategist of the dam, you know. The dam is like my home (I just don't live there often). Now that the big boss, Said, is gone, I, as the strategist of the dam, should go and guard it."

"Hmm, the problem is, who should we invite? Roy will definitely be begging to go, but to be honest, it doesn't seem like there's much point in bringing him along."

Just as Zhang Hao was still pondering who to bring, Wei Long sneaked in from outside. Seeing Zhang Hao's still pained expression, he said somewhat apologetically:

"Xiao Hao, quick, bring out all the test papers in your room. It seems that Mai Xiaowen is having a fight with Zoya on the first floor. I'll personally take care of all these things that might threaten your life!"

Then, under Zhang Hao's adoring gaze, our "academic genius" Wei Long began his own "showtime." None of the questions on the exam paper could survive even half a minute under Wei Long's pen. Zhang Hao looked at Wei Long, who had helped him eliminate these threats, with gratitude and decided to take him to the dam for a "vacation" the next day.

That's right. In Zhang Hao's view, it was just taking the Special Operations Department people to the dam for a vacation. There was no other way. In Said's view, his dam had already been developed and could not be allowed to be stolen by someone with ulterior motives. But in the eyes of others, this worry was completely unnecessary.

Zhang Hao: Uncle Said, don't worry. Nobody will bother attacking the dam while you're away. If they really wanted to raid your base, they wouldn't be interested in your dam. Longbow Valley in Reis is their primary target.

"Waaah, Brother Weilong, you're so kind! Do you want to come to the dam with me tomorrow? Uncle Said has to go out for the day, I'll go and keep an eye on the dam for him."

Upon hearing this, Wei Long thought, "Hmm? Isn't this just taking a vacation under a legitimate reason? I happen to have a patrol mission tomorrow, hehehe."

"Xiao Hao, don't worry, I'll definitely protect you. By the way, who else is going? Speaking of which, Xiao Hao, those three people downstairs..."

Wei Long gave a meaningful look. He knew that if Zhang Hao missed even one of them, things would get very messy; the scene would be...

Wei Long couldn't help but shudder twice. Oh well, he was just here to help Xiao Hao solve these awful exam papers. As for what to do with the three girls downstairs, that was Xiao Hao's own business.

Wei Long: Xiao Hao, you've grown up. As a man, you'll definitely be able to handle these things perfectly!

Wei Long didn't say anything more, he just kept quiet and focused on writing the test paper in front of him.

Zhang Hao, standing to the side, also started to think. He was only going to have fun for a day, so he couldn't possibly bring all three of his sisters along. Besides, if the three of them went to the dam together... they would definitely argue the whole way, right?

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Hao made a difficult decision. That's right, he wouldn't take Xiaowen, Luna, or Zoya with him. As for the big pot, Roy and Uncle Uluru, I'll leave it to you.

After figuring it out, Zhang Hao walked out without hesitation, and Wei Long gave him an affirming look from behind.

Wei Long: Go, Xiao Hao, carry my expectations with you. I'm afraid I can't escape the curse of Shu Road Mountain in my life, but you can do it, you definitely can!

When Zhang Hao arrived downstairs, he found that Mai Xiaowen and Zoya had already finished arguing. The two of them sat on opposite sides of the sofa. However, after seeing Zhang Hao come down, they got up and wanted to come to his side. But after exchanging glances, they first focused their attention on Luna, who was preparing to flank him.

Luna: Huh? What's going on? Is this the first time the Kuomintang and the Communist Party have cooperated? Why, why are you looking at me?!

"You know what we're going to do, right? Be honest, you know?"

Zoya moved closer to Luna and warned her.
