I obviously just want to be a dragon

Chapter 146 The War Gradually Draws to an End

Huaming District, the northern line of defense.

On the fourth line of defense, the professionals were completely invisible.

The soldiers are making final adjustments, and then they are ready to start advancing the defense line.

Taking a closer look, behind this line of defense, several figures have already begun to appear.

That's the guy behind the line of defense.

They have already advanced the line of defense here, and are about to join forces with this line of defense.

Therefore, next, this line of defense will also move forward. With the help of professionals, they will clean up the battlefield while cleaning up the phantoms, and join the third line of defense.

"The camp has been reorganized, and the elimination of the professionals in front is also going smoothly. If we start now, we can join the professionals in front of us before joining the third line of defense."

An officer was reporting to Commander Duan.

"Okay." Commander Duan sat in an office that looked like a command room, nodded to the officer, and said, "If that's the case, let's make a report and leave in 10 minutes."

"Yes." The officer saluted and retreated.

Commander Duan tapped his fingers on the desk, wondering what he was thinking.

After a while, Commander Duan picked up the phone and dialed a number.

The call was quickly connected.

"I'm Gao Xu."

On the other side of the phone, a familiar voice rang.

Impressively, it was Gao Xu.

"It's me." Commander Duan said succinctly: "My side is ready to advance the defense line."

These words made Gao Xu silent for a while.

He naturally understood what this meant.

"Did Xu Qianqian really not return to the defense line for help?"

Gao Xu said lightly.

"I have no news about her at all." Commander Duan said, "Obviously, she really has no intention of asking for help."

"It seems that she has vaguely guessed that I also have arrangements on the defense line." Gao Xu said to himself: "I didn't ask you for help, probably because I also think that we have the possibility of cooperation." ?”

Commander Duan had no interest in Gao Xu's speculation at all.

His phone call was just to explain one thing.

"Since the line of defense is ready to advance, I have nothing to do with your Xu family's affairs." Commander Duan said in a deep voice, "I won't help you deal with the outstanding talents in Longyao City in the future, do you understand?"

When he said this, Commander Duan was obviously dissatisfied and meant something.

Gao Xu naturally knew that Commander Duan was actually very opposed to cooperating with him and setting up a scheme to murder Xu Qianqian.

This is not only because Commander Duan himself, as a soldier, has a natural aversion to this kind of shady plot unfolding in secret, but also because as a military commander, his nature of worrying about the country and the people has long been engraved in his bones.

In his opinion, a child like Xu Qianqian who is still studying in the academy with extraordinary talents and potentials is an important talent and combat power of Longyao City in the future.

If Xu Qianqian can grow up smoothly, it may not be impossible to become the pillar supporting Longyao City.

Such talents, instead of vigorously supporting and cultivating them, set up traps because of some boring things. It is impossible for a soldier like Commander Duan not to feel disgusted.

But it was precisely because Commander Duan was a soldier that he had to cooperate with Gao Xu.

After all, the iron code of a soldier is obedience.

And the Xu family forces behind Gao Xu have already dredged up relations with the military and asked them to cooperate.

Commander Duan had to cooperate with Gao Xu and design Xu Qianqian precisely because he received an order from above and received a secret mission.

But that was about as far as it went.

After the line of defense advances, Commander Duan is not the only person who can be the master of the line of defense, but will join the commanders of other lines of defense to make decisions together.

It is already impossible to cooperate with Gao Xu and design Xu Qianqian without telling them.

So, his task has come to an end.

"I know." Gao Xu didn't say anything, and said indifferently: "The next thing has nothing to do with you, you just do your own job well."

After finishing speaking, Gao Xu hung up the phone.

Commander Duan didn't care, he also put down the phone and let out a sigh of relief.

He looked out of the window, his expression full of displeasure.

"When is it, they are still intriguing and framing each other like this. These so-called family forces will not only bring strength to Longyao City, but also bring chaos."

Obviously, Commander Duan hated such things.

However, he couldn't change anything.

All he can do is obey the orders from above, do his job well, and do his part for the survival and development of Longyao City.

At the same time, in a remote old house, Gao Xu, who had put down his phone, raised his head and looked at Xu Yanyan who was beside him.

"The plan has completely failed." Gao Xu said very directly: "There is really no way to do anything to Xu Qianqian this time, wait for the next opportunity."

"Yes." Xu Yanyan seemed to have been mentally prepared for this, and she answered calmly.

Anyway, Gao Xu is ready to take on the failure of this mission, so if he fails, he will fail.

Gao Xu, who didn't know what Xu Yanyan was thinking, just continued talking.

"After you go back, ask your father to send someone to investigate Miss Qianqian." Gao Xu's eyes flickered, and he said, "We must investigate clearly who is that mysterious strong man with impressive strength, and who came from which side."

"Understood." Xu Yanyan was very concerned about this matter.

I have to pay attention.

If Xu Qianqian really stood behind a high-level professional who did not belong to the Xu family, then it is very likely that some big force really cooperated with people from Xu Qianqian's faction.

If it really becomes like this, they will be in big trouble.

"Although this mission failed, it is not completely fruitless to force out the mysterious strongman behind Miss Qianqian." Gao Xu said lightly: "Anyway, I will personally report this matter to your father. Just be responsible for contacting those lost family hunters."

"Yes." Xu Yanyan nodded and asked, "What about your injury?"

Hearing this sentence, Gao Xu twitched the corner of his mouth and sighed.

"Unfortunately, it's not good yet."

There is no doubt that the injury caused by Su Ming's [Silver Arm] is still affecting Gao Xu.

"That power is really terrifying. It can't be cured by any means, but it can only be healed naturally." Gao Xu said with a sullen face: "And healed by nature, even if I am a high-level hunter who has awakened into a demon like me, I still can't recover." It takes a long time to recover from an injury of this magnitude."

In other words, even if Gao Xu is not unable to fight, he can't fight recklessly like he did in his heyday.

Now his combat effectiveness has been affected, and even the famous Lindao was split and almost shattered.

Therefore, Gao Xu was no longer ready to make another move.

Especially with that mysterious strong man, if he meets again, Gao Xu will definitely retreat without hesitation.

Otherwise, maybe they will be left behind by the other party.

"Remember, we must investigate his identity." Gao Xu solemnly instructed Xu Yanyan, saying: "Judging from his physical fitness, it is obvious that he has not yet broken the shackles of the physical body, awakened as a demon, and has insufficient combat experience. , the skills are even more immature, although the skill is good, it is completely relying on physical fitness to perform combat techniques step by step, and it is very likely that he is a super genius who has not been deeply involved in the world, does not fight often, and is young."

Gao Xu actually deduced some details about Su Ming by relying on the information obtained during the battle.

"Such a super genius who can compete with me with special abilities and special senses, and even beat me back, if he really grows up, he will become an advanced professional like me, an awakened demon Then I am no longer his opponent."

Gao Xu looked at Xu Yanyan solemnly.

"Such an existence, really standing on Xu Qianqian's side, is definitely a huge threat."

"And such a genius must have a terrible family power behind him."

"What is the relationship between that force and Miss Qianqian? If we don't investigate this point clearly, we may not be able to continue to attack her."

Gao Xu's instructions made Xu Yanyan lower her head and clenched her fists.

"Remember, investigate carefully."

Gao Xu threw out such a sentence, then closed his eyes, and continued to cultivate.

Seeing this, Xu Yanyan retreated silently.

In his eyes, a trace of unwillingness and resentment floated.

Longyao City, downtown area.

In one of the high places here, the superior sitting in the study also received a call.

"The ambush of Xu Qianqian failed?" The superior frowned, snorted coldly, and said, "Sure enough, everyone in the Xu family is trash."

Can't even solve a little girl?
This is not what is waste?
"Forget it, let's take it as that girl's life should not die." The superior quickly put aside the matter and asked, "Your identity hasn't been revealed, has it?"

In this incident, the superior used the hidden stake he had buried in the Xu family to let the other party facilitate this incident.

If this hidden pile is exposed, it will be a big loss for the superior.

There is no way, although the Xu family has a great family and business, but it can be passed down to this day, so it is natural that there is a way to deal with the inner ghost.

The pawns that others buried in the Xu family were either too low in status to exert much influence, or they were simply found out and cleaned up by the Xu family. There is only one chess piece that can hold people, even this superior.

If this is accidentally exposed, it will be difficult to do anything to the Xu family in the future.

For this reason, the high-ranking person cherishes this chess piece very much.

"Your most important task at present is to hide your identity no matter what." The superior said heavily: "Even if you want to do something with Xu Qianqian's status, you must first ensure your concealment, otherwise , even I can't save you from the Xu family, you know?"

After finishing speaking, the person in charge gave some more instructions, and then hung up the phone.

"What a lucky little girl."

Thinking of Xu Qianqian's matter, the superior shook his head and stopped paying attention.

Compared with Xu Qianqian's matter, he cared more about the phantom cub.

"The people over there" have contacted him and told him that they prevented the phantom cub from leaving.

The phantom cub had already lost its chance of escaping back to the Spirit Demon Prison, and it was still staying in Huaming District.

In order to get her and the bloodline of the Nightmare Seed, the higher-ups had to make another plan, find a way to find the cub, and catch it.

"Unfortunately, the war is coming to an end, and it will not be so easy to secretly act under the noses of other base city executives."

The superior frowned tightly, his face full of haze.

"It seems that we still have to cooperate with those damn underground professionals."

Thinking of this, the superior picked up the phone.

The surging undercurrent is destined not to be exposed to the sun.

No one knows that behind this war, there are still so many deliberate actions and calculations.

Possibly, this is only part of it.

No matter where it is, there will be no shortage of people who always think about acting in the dark and in the dark.

But at least, at the moment, these things have nothing to do with Su Ming and others. People who have been running around on the battlefield just to end the battle have no way of knowing. They are doing their own things to make the direction of the battle gradually clear.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon on this day, Su Ming and others were out hunting, and the professionals who cleared up the phantoms gathered at the third line of defense with the people who pushed forward the line of defense, gathered the combat power of the three lines of defense, and advanced towards the second line of defense .

It was also at this time that Xu Qianqian's private soldiers finally returned to her side, and she also reported to the defense that she was attacked.

But at this time, Gao Xu and Xu Yanyan were no longer there.

It is said that they withdrew from the battlefield with the remaining hunters of the Xu family on the grounds that they were seriously injured and unable to fight anymore.

Xu Qianqian's crisis was thus resolved.

She wasn't out of trouble, though.

Because, in her team, except for the people she thought, everyone lost contact.

Including Li Wei, who is still alive and dead now, which made the people in the Li family furious.

In Longyao City, the power of the Li family is not much worse than that of the Xu family.

Now, the collateral genius that he valued by his family suddenly disappeared, and his life and death were unknown. It was impossible for the Li family to do nothing.

It is conceivable that Xu Qianqian will definitely be made things difficult by the Li family next.

If the Li family found out that Li Wei's incident was entirely caused by vicious competition within the Xu family, then the Xu family would probably be in trouble.

In a word, Xu Qianqian is safe, but the troubles surrounding her are destined not to fade away so easily.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Su Ming.

Su Ming and Xu Qianqian just calculated in secret, planning to use Xu Qianqian's channel to send Xiao Haier out of Huaming District.

For Su Ming, this is the only thing that really needs attention.

Then, on the third line of defense, everyone began to advance again.

Target, pointing directly to the forefront.
