“It's me.”
A familiar voice came through the communicator, allowing Kuang Liu to exhale a heavy sigh of relief and finally relax.
Although Jack had explained earlier that Peng Jun had not caused any significant trouble, that was just someone else's word. Kuang Liu was not the type to take everything at face value.
After hesitating for a moment and organizing his words, Kuang Liu finally spoke.
“Wen Yu and I were tricked by a treasure land guardian and spent over a month stuck in a treasure land. We just got out and are currently in Las Vegas, United States. Both of us are safe, but we are unsure whether we should return to Huaxia or continue acting freely.”
Lin Haifeng responded with a knowing "Hmm," and spoke directly.
“There are some things I need to discuss with both of you.”
...
“Is there anyone else around you?”
In the communicator, Lin Haifeng's tone was slightly cautious.
Kuang Liu glanced at Klaus and Jack, who understood and immediately left the room without a word.
“There's no one now, but this communicator has probably been under American military surveillance the whole time, right?” Kuang Liu felt that Lin Haifeng's actions were somewhat unnecessary.
“Yes, the higher-ups of the U.S. military are aware of what I’m about to tell you, but it's inconvenient to disclose to others.”
“Firstly, about the opening of the Demon Realm Gate less than a month from now.”
“When the Demon Realm Gate opens, there will also be a simultaneous operation called the human race ranking hunting plan.”
“With the Demon Realm Gate will come powerful beings from the demonic clan, who will target the top ten strongest of the human race ranking for hunting. The strength of your hunting group will be quite terrifying, so you both need to be prepared.”
Upon hearing this news, Kuang Liu and Wen Yu frowned.
Wen Yu, swirling his wine glass, cautiously asked, “How strong?”
“Stronger than you!”
“Understood.”
There was one thing Wen Yu didn't say—according to his understanding, Lin Haifeng's meaning was clear: you two should honestly stay in the United States and not return home for now, dealing with the hunting group on American soil.
Given Wen Yu's current strength, if he unleashed his full power, he could easily destroy Las Vegas within half an hour. Even if he fully activated the dark demon lord and held back a large move, obliterating half of Las Vegas was merely challenging, not impossible! This also highlighted how extensive the impact would be in battles between super beings.
Unfortunately, Lin Haifeng's next sentence made both of them realize that he was not someone lacking foresight.
...
“Did you think that my purpose in telling you this was to keep you temporarily in the United States and not return?”
Wen Yu and Kuang Liu both fell silent.
After all, this was a question that was difficult to discuss in a communicator under American military surveillance.
“The issue with the hunting group is not the reason for you staying in the United States. There are plenty of wild, desolate areas in our country; there's no need to bring this kind of battle into another country.”
“However, it is true that I need you to stay in the U.S.”
“You need to help them!”
Hearing this, Kuang Liu directly rebutted.
“Help them? I'm not being self-deprecating, but for a military organization of a superpower, they shouldn't need the help of one or a few individuals, even if it’s sequence two or three!”
It seemed that Kuang Liu still had a deep desire to return home.
“No, let me slowly explain this to you both.”
“First of all, within this month, we have already grasped the number and locations of the upcoming Demon Realm Gates.”
“The number and opening locations of the Demon Realm Gates are regular. According to current intelligence, the number of gates on land is determined by land area, not by population or number of practitioners. You can probably imagine what kind of impact this rule will bring.”
Wen Yu and Kuang Liu's minds turned quickly, and in a short time, they had already envisioned how this distribution of the Demon Realm Gates would affect the situation in various countries!
