Standing on the ramparts of the Zone Nine forward base, Tang Hao stood straight, as if he were a statue, gazing into the distance.
The intensity of the battles in Zone Nine was naturally the highest among all levels, but even the fighting in Zone Nine seemed to Tang Hao like a lukewarm slaughter.
A large group of level nine demonic clan civilians broke through the Demon Realm Gate, howling and rushing towards the impregnable defense line, only to be physically destroyed by various attacks, turning into fertilizer that nourished this land.
Everything here was no different from what was happening in Zone Seven.
Thus, this situation naturally did not require Tang Hao or the mechanical nemesis guarding this place to take action.
Thinking of this, Tang Hao opened his mouth wide and let out a heavy yawn. Then he turned and flew down from the city wall—his daily patrol was merely a routine task, and Tang Hao was stationed here just in case.
Now that the daily task was complete, Tang Hao naturally wanted to do something for himself—like spending time with his lovely little secretary...
Making his way back to the central castle of the Zone Nine forward base, the soldiers coming and going saluted Tang Hao with great respect, which made him feel very comfortable.
Where in Beijing could one enjoy life at the front lines...
Once upon a time, when Wen Yu and Tang Haofei were still on Earth, Tang Hao was firmly pressed beneath these two mountains—one was his godfather, and the other was his biological father. Even when in Beijing, Tang Hao could only live like an ordinary young heir, doing nothing every day.
After the two left, Tang Hao suddenly felt liberated—being the supervisor of the Zone Nine forward base and guarding the territory made him a significant figure, which was much more enjoyable than his previous life of a rich young man.
With these thoughts in mind, Tang Hao arrived at the central castle. He pushed open his door, and three sweet voices immediately rang in his ears.
"Sir, you're back."
"Sir, have some water."
"Sir..."
Looking at the secretaries before him, Tang Hao grinned, just about to start doing something, when unexpectedly a voice appeared behind him.
"Tang Hao, what are you doing?"
Uh...
Tang Hao's outstretched hand froze in place.
Behind him, a silver-haired, nearly two-meter-tall dog-headed man casually squeezed past Tang Hao. He looked at the three beautiful women in the room and couldn't help but let out a series of teasing barks.
"Woof, your life is truly delightful... Woof woof woof..."
Well, the combination of human speech and barking left Tang Hao completely confused. He exchanged glances with his little secretaries, and the three swayed their hips and left the room. Only then did Tang Hao invite the one-eyed man to sit down and offer him some tea.
After the one-eyed man rinsed his mouth, Tang Hao smilingly leaned in closer.
"Big boss, you came here to..."
Although both held positions in Zone Nine, their roles were quite different.
Tang Hao's Zone Nine forward base faced the Demon Realm Gate, while the one-eyed mechanical nemesis's base faced away from it, with only the one-eyed avatar responsible for the defense there. Strictly speaking, the two belonged to different systems and usually had little interaction.
The one-eyed man coming over was not new, but entering his bedroom uninvited was a first.
Hearing Tang Hao's inquiry, the one-eyed man, known for his few words, first changed to a more comfortable sitting position, then reached into his chest cavity. After a moment, he pulled out two pieces of paper.
"New orders."
As he said this, the one-eyed man placed the two pieces of paper in front of Tang Hao.
Tang Hao looked down.
"Order Zone Nine to mobilize all array mage legions to gather at the 2541 continental plate. This order has a confidentiality level of S."
"Order Zone Nine frontline chief commander Tang Hao to selectively release a small number of demonic clan members, with the selection criteria being—demonic clan children and women, either possessing a strong desire to survive or not having heavy killing intent. This order has a confidentiality level of SSS."
