The two people standing above the crimson clouds moved forward at a rapid pace, and in the blink of an eye they arrived above the military region.
After tidying up his appearance, Wang Zheng led his principal down the stairs.
It was the same familiar recipe and the same familiar taste. After registering with Lao Chu, Wang Zheng drove to the research institute's rest area.
Wang Zheng had just gotten out of the car when he saw Dang Liantao already sitting there waiting. The two greeted each other, and then Dang Liantao led Wang Zheng upstairs to the conference room, whispering as they walked:
"Why are you so late? I wonder if it's because the expert team from the capital had an accident in southern Beijing last time. There are quite a few people here this time, including people from the military region, the Special Affairs Bureau, and the research institute."
Old Gu is upstairs helping with the reception right now. He told me to tell you not to worry too much; the Jingnan Military Region will always be your strongest support.
Hearing this, Wang Zheng probably understood what was going on and nodded silently.
He then took the lead and pushed open the conference room door.
Upon entering, besides Old Master Gu sitting at the entrance, Wang Zheng also saw four guests from the capital, two elderly people and two young people, sitting opposite him.
However, after seeing their faces clearly, Wang Zheng laughed.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to run into an acquaintance here. It's been a long time, Major General Tang..."
Wang Zheng carefully examined the shoulder insignia of the leader, who was none other than Tang Guoan, whom he had met before at the Genius Training Camp.
Compared to the Tang suit he wore when we first met, his military uniform was now neatly arranged.
Wang Zheng vaguely remembered that the old man had claimed to be an ordinary retired person, but he never expected that he would become a major general in the blink of an eye.
Sure enough, that old geezer is wicked; not a word of truth comes out of his mouth.
"It has indeed been a long time. I didn't expect that I would have to address you as Major Wang on our second meeting. You are indeed a formidable young man!"
As Wang Zheng greeted him, Tang Guoan smiled warmly, but his expression turned somewhat awkward when he saw Chu Tianxing behind Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng continued looking back and recognized the second middle-aged man besides Tang Guoan. This man was wearing a dark-colored training uniform, was tall and upright, had a resolute face, and exuded an aura of authority without anger.
The spiritual energy emanating from him seemed to linger, and although he was just sitting there, he gave people a strong sense of pressure.
This person is none other than the extraordinary master who used earth element to hold back the Spirit Elephant King in the Demon King Battlefield!
As for the other two, one was about the same age as Tang Guoan, wearing thick black-rimmed glasses, with his full head of silver hair neatly combed. He had a strong scholarly air about him and looked like an old pedant. Wang Zheng guessed that this should be someone from the research institute.
The last one was a bit younger. Although his face was expressionless, his impatience was barely concealed.
However, in front of the three people in charge, his status was clearly more than one level lower, so he rationally restrained himself and did not dare to be too outspoken.
However, the inexplicable hostility in his eyes when he looked at Wang Zheng made Wang Zheng narrow his eyes, unsure of the man's identity.
After Wang Zheng brought his principal in and greeted Old Gu, he went straight to sit down opposite Tang Guoan.
Although Wang Zheng had already met Tang Guoan, Professor Gu Min still introduced all four people from the capital to him.
"This is Major General Tang Guoan from the Capital Military Region Headquarters. I won't elaborate since you already know him. Behind him are Master Yan Hao from the Special Affairs Bureau, Professor Huo Lianrong from the Capital Research Institute, and Director Tang Shan..."
'Tang San? No wonder he suddenly disliked me; turns out he's a scoundrel from the start!'
Professor Gu is old and has difficulty distinguishing between retroflex and alveolar consonants, so Wang Zheng didn't immediately recognize his name, but that wasn't that important.
After Elder Gu finished introducing the people from the capital and was about to introduce Wang Zheng, Tang Guoan waved his hand and said:
"Major Wang and Principal Chu need no introduction. We have long admired them and have met them before. We hope Major Wang will not take offense at our intrusion."
"I don't mind at all, I don't mind at all... You're too kind."
As the two exchanged pleasantries, Yan Hao, who had been staring at Wang Zheng ever since he entered, also smiled and spoke:
"I also have to thank Major Wang. Back in Yunnan, we wouldn't have been able to get away so easily without his help."
Wang Zheng quickly declined to comment.
"Not at all, I should be thanking you. If it weren't for you and your fellow grandmasters holding back the demon king, I wouldn't have been able to escape."
At the same time, Chu Tianxing also bowed to Yan Hao to express his gratitude.
"This old man also wants to thank Master Yan for his righteous help. Please also ask Master Yan to convey to the other four masters that I, Chu, will remember this life-saving grace and will do my utmost if needed."
Hearing Chu Tianxing speak seriously, Yan Hao immediately became serious as well.
"That's too much, Principal Chu. There's no need for that. It's all for the stability of the country. Instead of thanking me, I should thank you for your selfless dedication."
"If it weren't for you risking your life to hold off those demon kings, we wouldn't have been able to get there in time. By then, Yunnan might be in a much worse situation than it is now..."
The two masters, one old and one young, started exchanging ideas, making Tang Guoan, who was standing to the side, blush with embarrassment.
Logically speaking, the Special Affairs Bureau is usually only responsible for handling special incidents. Their goal is to kill the enemy, and even if they go to the battlefield to help, it is only to deal with the enemy's top combat forces.
In comparison, the safety of ordinary people is more important than that of ordinary monsters, which are the real threat to the military region's army group.
