“Commander Lin is looking for me? What’s the matter?”
Having taken over Tang Haofei's position for quite some time, Wen Yu had never met Lin Haifeng. The entire military and political affairs of the Beijing gathering place were managed by Fang Bai and others. According to Fang Bai, Lin Haifeng would likely have his office permanently stationed at the Eternal Sky City in the future.
At this moment, since Lin Haifeng was seeking him out for the first time, something significant must have happened.
“I don’t know.”
Le frowned, indicating he was unaware of the situation.
Moreover, the level of confidentiality was quite high... Wen Yu added silently in his heart.
...
Descending the stairs from the northern city wall, a military vehicle had been waiting for Wen Yu for quite some time.
As he boarded the military vehicle, the driver quickly started the engine, and amidst the roar of the engine, the vehicle sped toward the military headquarters in the Inner City.
Seeing the driver's driving speed as if he were in a hurry to reincarnate, Wen Yu narrowed his eyes, lost in thought.
...
The military headquarters in the Inner City still looked the same.
Speaking of which, since Wen Yu arrived in Beijing, he had been wandering around the outer city and hadn't returned to the Inner City even once.
“I seem to still have an apartment here... I wonder if Old Man Lin gave my place away as a favor to someone else...”
Looking at the familiar scenery of the Inner City, Wen Yu thought to himself, teasingly.
The military vehicle passed smoothly through the military headquarters— in fact, the vehicle Wen Yu was in was Lin Haifeng’s special car.
After arriving at the base of the military headquarters building, he was escorted to Lin Haifeng's office by another one of Lin Haifeng's personal guards.
Pushing open the door, Wen Yu found only Lin Haifeng and Fang Bai in the room.
...
Having not seen each other for many days, there were more white strands in Lin Haifeng’s hair—this was not a sign of dwindling lifespan as each level up for a professional meant a fundamental change in their essence, naturally extending their lifespan to some extent.
The white strands on Lin Haifeng’s head were merely a reflection of his excessive hard work—Old Man Lin was indeed busy...
Although Wen Yu couldn’t quite understand who Old Lin was working so hard for, everyone has their own ideals and goals.
In a way, the efforts made for one’s goals and ideals deserve respect.
Hearing the door hinge creak, Lin Haifeng slowly looked up.
Seeing the glimmer in Lin Haifeng's eyes, Wen Yu felt a chill in his heart.
Power brings confidence, and in a way, power can also be considered a form of individual strength.
Thinking back to the combat capabilities of the army observed on the front lines recently, a trace of vigilance arose within Wen Yu.
It seemed that he had always underestimated Lin Haifeng...
Strictly speaking, Lin Haifeng was the man standing at the pinnacle of the human race.
...
“Sit.”
Casually pointing to a sofa nearby, Lin Haifeng motioned for Wen Yu to take a seat while quickly reviewing the documents in his hand. In less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, he had flipped through dozens of pages.
Skillfully signing his name, Lin Haifeng handed the documents to Fang Bai, then waved his hand to signal Fang Bai to leave.
Once Fang Bai exited the office, Lin Haifeng finally relaxed, leaning back against the comfortable chair and stretching lazily.
“What did you want to talk to me about?”
Unable to endure the long wait, Wen Yu asked decisively as Lin Haifeng showed no intention of speaking first.
“After finally getting this hard-earned break, are you that impatient?”
Wen Yu pouted. For him, killing demonic creatures was the best way to pass the time— it might even be everything in his life right now.
Seeing Wen Yu’s expression, Lin Haifeng slowly withdrew his smile and directly got to the point.
“News has come from Tang Haofei's side. We have officially formed an alliance with the oceanic tribe. In about half a month, the oceanic army will come to the mainland to cooperate with us in dealing with the demonic clan forces outside the Beijing gathering place.”
