The Whale in the Mountains

Chapter 682 Reaching a Preliminary Understanding

"No problem, that's our responsibility."

The chief said with a serious face.

"Well, that's good. I believe our country can definitely do these things well."

Chen Xiao nodded, as if he were the chief himself.

At this time, the chief suddenly realized, how did this kid turn the tables on him?

It was obvious that Chen Xiao was in control of the situation.

Chen Xiao also realized this, and there seemed to be a trace of solidified awkwardness in the air.

"By the way, about those old guys..."

In order to prevent the awkwardness from spreading, Chen Xiao quickly changed the subject.

But before he could finish speaking, the chief shook his head and said indifferently, "It doesn't matter, ignore them. Those old guys, relying on some contributions they made when they were young, are lying on their laurels and acting like rascals... They haven't thought about how their offspring, like termites, have already eaten up their merits. I have already been benevolent and righteous to them. If they don't know what's good for them, I don't mind letting them know my methods."

The chief suddenly became cunning.

The main reason was that the news Chen Xiao brought him was too shocking, which changed his state all of a sudden.

The original dispute was like a domestic lawsuit, but now the problem they were facing was the survival of all mankind.

Under such circumstances, the chief naturally no longer cared about those old guys who were relying on their seniority.

Moreover, if he had to choose between Chen Xiao and those old guys, he would choose Chen Xiao without hesitation.

The chief decided to bear the pressure from those old guys alone, so Chen Xiao naturally wanted to reciprocate: "Chief, I'll go out for a while, please wait a moment."

"Okay!"

Out of trust and respect for Chen Xiao, the chief didn't even ask what Chen Xiao was going to do.

Afterwards, Chen Xiao went out, and returned thirty minutes later.

He was also carrying a briefcase, which he placed in front of the chief.

"What is this?"

"I'll open it, don't be afraid."

"Well, I'm fine, open it."

In just a moment, the chief had dozens of guesses about what was in the bag.

But he still didn't expect that there would be a human head in the briefcase.

"Huh? This is..."

A trace of surprise flashed in the chief's eyes, but he didn't show any fear. He just felt that this head looked a little familiar.

"This is Lutherf, the general of the Bear Country. The demonic beasts that invaded the Northern Territory before were under his command. He originally planned to use the demonic beasts to consume the Celestial Strategy Army (Tian Ce Jun) stationed in the Northern Territory, and then launch a large-scale invasion of the Northern Territory."

Chen Xiao said calmly.

The chief's face was as deep as water, and he said with gritted teeth: "Xiao Zhan reported this to me. The Bear Country has wild ambitions. Chen Xiao, you have made another great contribution to the country!"

"It's my honor to be able to do something small for the country, and for me, it's just a matter of lifting a finger."

Chen Xiao killed Lutherf, first because he deserved to die, and second, as a pledge of allegiance that Chen Xiao submitted.

By doing so, he was sending a signal to the chief that he could be entrusted with some shady and dirty work.

And in return, when Chen Xiao does certain things, the chief must also open a green light for him.

The chief was insightful and immediately understood Chen Xiao's intention, but he remained noncommittal and did not directly promise Chen Xiao anything.

He remained calm, and suddenly thought of something, pointing to Lutherf's head and asked, "Chen Xiao, when did you do this?"

"Just now."

Chen Xiao said casually.

"What?"

The chief was shocked and asked incredulously, "Are you saying that you did it during the time you just went out? How did you do it?"

You know, Chen Xiao was only out for about thirty minutes at most.

How did he get to the Bear Country in thirty minutes, and how did he take the head of General Lutherf under the heavy protection of the Bear Country's army?

The chief couldn't figure out the answers to these questions even if he racked his brains.

The ancients said that a general's head can be taken from an army of thousands, but Chen Xiao took a general's head from thousands of miles away.

This assassination ability is simply terrifying, and probably unique in the world.

The chief felt shocked and also fortunate.

Fortunately, such a person is in his own camp. If he were a member of the opposing camp, the consequences would be unimaginable.

And now, it is probably the people in those opposing camps who have a headache.

"Hehe, I naturally have my own methods."

Chen Xiao smiled slightly, without much explanation.

"It seems that we can't stop you from doing what you want to do..."

The chief pondered for a long time, and finally said this sentence of 'showing weakness' to Chen Xiao.

It seemed like showing weakness, but it was actually an attempt to win him over.

"Chief, don't worry, I won't go too far."

"Well... that's good."

Although that's what he said, how to measure the degree between excessive and not excessive is still up to Chen Xiao!

However, Chen Xiao and the chief have reached a preliminary understanding.

Both sides were very satisfied with this, and it was a win-win situation.

After chatting for a while, the chief was about to leave. He was busy with many things and couldn't spend all his time on the Celestial Strategy Army (Tian Ce Jun).

In fact, it was already giving those old guys a lot of face for him to personally come to the Celestial Strategy Army (Tian Ce Jun) camp to investigate this matter.

After seeing off the chief and his entourage, Xiao Zhan looked at Chen Xiao with a surprised expression: "Old Chen, what did the chief say to you? I have never seen him so happy before!"

He was originally worried that there would be tension between the two, after all, one held great power, and the other had absolute strength, and both were strong-willed people.

But he never expected that not only did the two not break down, but after the conversation, the chief was all smiles, as if he had won the lottery.

What kind of magic does Chen Xiao have?

He didn't know that having Chen Xiao was the luck of the entire country, which was much more worthy of joy than winning the lottery.

Chen Xiao smiled mysteriously: "Are you sure you want to hear it?"

Hearing Chen Xiao say this, Xiao Zhan quickly shook his head: "If it involves state secrets, then forget it."

Chen Xiao laughed and simply told Xiao Zhan what had happened.

After hearing this, Xiao Zhan was stunned, but thinking that the other party was Chen Xiao... well, it seemed to make sense instantly.

After all, there is nothing this kid can't do.

"By the way, Chen Xiao, you said you had something to tell me, what is it?"

Xiao Zhan finally remembered that Chen Xiao still had something to tell him.

"War God Xiao (Xiao Jun Shen), I hope you can leave the Celestial Strategy Army (Tian Ce Jun)."

Chen Xiao's words directly stunned Xiao Zhan: "This, this is... the chief's intention?"

Seeing his appearance, Chen Xiao quickly explained: "This matter has nothing to do with the chief. It's my personal idea, and letting you leave the Celestial Strategy Army (Tian Ce Jun) is only temporary."
