Zhang Linyuan scoffed, "You guys have this habit of being cheeky after transforming, what a hassle! There's no space to store everyday things or anything..."

The little bat transformed into a pale-faced handsome man, his eyes shining as he dressed: "I heard that your Yan Kingdom has developed a portable space, is that true? Can you get me one?"

"I'll trade you something. What do you want? Intelligence? Money? Industry? Or perhaps cultural relics from Yan?"

Zhang Linyuan gave him a deep look: "Ugly as he may be, but he has a beautiful mind."

Harold froze, his eyes blazing: "Who are you calling ugly?"

He understands the language of Yan, so he can understand the surface meaning of these words.

Zhang Linyuan snorted coldly: "Whoever is right should say so."

Harold: ...I can't do anything, this is so annoying!

When has he, a dignified vampire, ever suffered such a loss?

Okay, ever since I met these Yan people, I've been eating here often, and I've gotten used to it.

Upon seeing Liu Yun, Harold immediately complained, "That Zhang guy is really rude. I'm not happy about it. I originally came to tell you about the battle, but now I don't want to talk about it anymore."

Zhang Linyuan: ...Do foreigners not understand the nuances, which is why they are so blunt?

Liu Yun: ...Not bad, you even know the structure of surnames in Yan Kingdom, and you even know that Zhang Linyuan's surname is Zhang!

Liu Yun glanced at Zhang Linyuan, who clenched his fists, about to bow his head and admit his mistake, but the news of the battle was more important.

But then Liu Yun calmly and slowly said, "Are you going to talk or not?"

How can she force her own people to submit?

What are you thinking about?

Unless it's an unforgivable mistake, she'll definitely side with Zhang Linyuan!

Even if there is a mistake, it will not be punished in front of Harold; it will be discussed in private.

Ultimately, Harold was an outsider.

Most importantly, has Harold forgotten that he is under the control of the puppet talisman? Does he have the freedom to speak or not?

Harold opened his mouth, his heart tightened, as if sensing some danger, and he quickly blurted out, "Tell me, tell me, you must tell me..."

She felt extremely aggrieved as soon as she finished speaking. He had rushed over here so eagerly, couldn't he just stand on his side for once?

Liu Yun chuckled lightly, offering a sweet treat after the initial beating, and tossed Harold a bag of blood.

Well, I got it from Rockefeller Hospital last time. I don't usually use it, so I just fed it to this little bat.

Why didn't you call?

Harold, holding the blood bag, immediately pulled out a hollow silver straw, inserted it, and began to drink with relish. "I was still worried about leaks, so I came over in person since I had nothing else to do recently. Besides, I heard that the New Year in Yan is very lively, and there's lots of delicious food..."

Liu Yun: "...You can eat?"

Harold's eyes widened: "Why not? I have a digestive system!"

"We just love drinking blood, but we also enjoy other delicacies."

Liu Yun:......

Zhang Linyuan relaxed, picked up the fruit on the table and silently began to peel it, without interrupting.

Seeing Harold thoroughly enjoying his drink, Liu Yun thought the little bat was quite easy to take care of: "What news is so important?"

Harold sat up straight, his expression turning serious: "I've heard that the battle for Power Island may have to be brought forward."

"Judging by the time, it's very likely that your Yan Kingdom will carry out this in the year following the New Year."

Liu Yun and Zhang Linyuan's expressions both tightened slightly.

Zhang Linyuan: "It was originally going to be two years, it's just a year earlier."

"Consider that the battle for control only happens once every hundred years, so being a year ahead of schedule is nothing."

Harold nodded: "It's really nothing, so everyone has agreed, and it'll most likely be settled like this."

Liu Yun: "Everyone? At that time, we'll just inform Yan Kingdom, right? Why would we need to ask for Yan Kingdom's consent?"

"Besides, this is the first time Yan Kingdom has participated. They know nothing about it, so what decision-making power do they have?"

Zhang Linyuan nodded, but this news was indeed quite important.

Yan Kingdom is developing rapidly, and there have been many clandestine missions lately.

If the Yan Kingdom is only informed close to the departure date, many experts will likely be on missions, making it difficult to gather enough people to participate in the battle.

Now we know that consciously allocating tasks, preserving new forces as much as possible, and being ready to set off at any time are the only ways to avoid being taken advantage of.

Zhang Linyuan looked at Harold with a complicated expression.

Although it was controlled by the puppet talisman, it was indeed an important event, and he even made a special trip to come here in person.

I just don't think it's that bad!

What is this person doing in Yan Kingdom?

Liu Yun thought so too, "What makes it absolutely necessary for you to come in person? Are you short of money for a plane ticket? Or are you short of a visa and immigration status?"

A bat flies across the sea, doesn't it get tired?

Harold said sheepishly, "I'm used to it, I'm really used to it."

"It's so convenient to be able to leave whenever I want!"

Liu Yun: "...In Yan Country, you're an unregistered resident, and you're an illegal immigrant. You can't go anywhere, okay?"

"Or did you go back after sending the message?"

Harold choked: "I just want to wander around, and I can do that with my bat body."

Liu Yun: "Hehe, you're overthinking it. These days, there's surveillance everywhere in Yan. Do you really think you can do whatever you want like you do abroad?"

Harold immediately became listless.

Zhang Linyuan looked away, not wanting to offer to help him get a replacement identity document.

Liu Yun was speechless. This was the consequence of refusing to use the main entrance and insisting on climbing onto the roof and tearing off the tiles.

"You said you were seriously injured before, what happened?"

"The BCIA is already struggling to take care of itself, how could anyone possibly hurt you?"

Harold: "It's nothing. When we were gathering information, BCIA was just one of the forces. Also, when you went to overthrow the headquarters, many superhumans were out on missions, so there weren't many left behind."

"Although BCIA suffered heavy losses, it is not so bad that it cannot recover."

"Moreover, we have other natural enemies, such as those who believe in God..."

Liu Yun was somewhat surprised: "Working so hard?"

Harold gave a fawning smile, all talk of elegance and nobility was irrelevant. "Of course, the boss gave the order... Besides, the battle for supremacy is about to begin at the normal time. If we delay any longer, we might not even need to investigate anymore; everything will be clear by then."

Liu Yun shook her head: "That's definitely different. They can only let us know a very limited amount of information."

"There are bound to be many inside stories that we won't know. Your task is to find out as many hidden secrets as possible so that we can better avoid danger and schemes."

"You can stay in China to recuperate if you want. I'll have someone get you entry status. We'll talk about it after the New Year."

Harold's eyes lit up: "Great! Great!"

Then, remembering something, the fly rubbed its hands together. "Um, could you give me a storage space? I can go back and retrieve artifacts from Yan Kingdom to send back, right?"

"Some people are very well hidden, making them difficult to move."
