No one knows when it began—
But the world was split in two.
Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.
Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...
Region E, General Region.
Office of the District Governor.
A man in his fifties, holding a cigarette that was almost burnt out between his fingers.
The man's head was shiny and hairless, and it glowed under the incandescent light.
This man is the highest decision-maker in Region E, Withers.
The phone at hand broke the silence in the room.
Withers frowned deeply, looked at the phone, and did not choose to answer it immediately.
He didn't want to answer.
During this day, he did not receive any good news from the phone calls.
He could accept the annihilation of the 30,000-strong vanguard troops; it was also part of his plan.
But then, the 30,000-strong global main battle group led by Pilov lost contact in just over an hour...
This is something that Withers and even the entire E District cannot accept.
That team is not a group of scattered soldiers.
That is a team that has really fought tough battles!
Even if we lose, it won't be so quiet, right?
There wasn't even a single wave.
This also made Withers and other senior executives in Region E realize that Region F was serious this time.
District F wasn't suddenly overreacting and trying to test District E's bottom line, but rather...
I really want to pin you down and beat you!
Such a F district makes the E district feel unfamiliar.
At this point, Withers has only one choice.
war!
Yes.
As the highest decision-maker in Region E, he also has his own troubles and helplessness.
The choices he can make are very limited.
Some time ago, Ye Liang killed two Thousand Souls Level warriors in District E, and this incident pushed him to the forefront.
It was he who made the final decision to accept Ye Liang.
When Ye Liang had made achievements before, Weathers was naturally in high spirits.
However, something went wrong with Ye Liang.
What a huge problem!
In the history of Region E, there has never been a situation where two top combat forces were lost in such a short period of time.
And Weathers cannot escape blame for this disaster.
So, during this period, Withers had a hard time.
He heard that many families below had gathered together privately many times to discuss how to remove him from the position of regional chief.
If he didn't already possess the strength of a Thousand Souls, the area under his butt would probably be...
It has long belonged to someone else.
But even with absolute strength, his current situation can still be described as difficult.
[Thousand Souls Level] is very strong, but not unshakable.
When those families determine that you are not suitable to continue to make decisions in this position, they are actually willing to pay some price and let you retire early.
Now, Withers is on the brink of retirement.
The phone kept ringing, and Withers finally sighed.
Escape is not a solution after all.
Maybe there will be good news from the team at Yefengkou.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and finally answered the phone.
However, when he heard the voice on the phone, Withers clearly felt his brain short-circuited for a moment.
"Greetings, District Chief Weathers."
"I'm Ning Fan, the commander of the border defense forces."
Withers took the phone away and looked at the screen carefully...
It’s Bai Peng’s number.
Bai Peng is currently in Yefengkou, so the person on the other end of the phone can confirm that it is really Ning Fan!
When Withers confirmed Ning Fan's identity, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
He hates it!
It was this little bastard who suddenly declared war that put me in such a passive position!
At Yefengkou, you have already occupied two [Roads of Grace]. What else are you dissatisfied with?
Weathers still couldn't understand why Ning Fan suddenly turned against Region E.
Ning Fan's next words completely broke Withers' defense.
"I want to talk to you about the armistice."
Withers hadn't uttered a single sound since he answered the phone.
But his mood has changed from irritability to anger!
"armistice……?!"
Withers almost squeezed out these two words from between his teeth.
"Yes."
Ning Fan said calmly, "We don't want to fight anymore."
Withers was so angry that he laughed.
If it weren't for the phone call, he really wanted to let this young man, who was only twenty years old, see the strength of his spirit servant.
"You were the ones who started the war, and now you are the ones who say you don't want to fight."
Withers gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think I will agree?"
"Yes."
Ning Fan chuckled: "Because the advantage lies with us."
Weathers was about to retort, but Ning Fan interrupted him.
"Chief District Officer Weathers, I want to remind you that every extra word you say now is not only a waste of time, but also the lives of your men."
"Outside Yefengkou, the war has not stopped. Soldiers from your E District fall down or even die every second."
"The sooner you agree, the sooner they can escape danger. In other words, the less damage your E District will suffer."
"We are all sensible people. There is no point in talking nonsense. You are no match for us."
"So, a ceasefire is in your favor."
After finishing speaking, Ning Fan smiled and said, "Let me ask you again, can we call a truce?"
Beside Ning Fan, Bai Peng stared at him with wide eyes.
