"Don't go out yet, everyone sit down!"
Zhang Rong spoke, walked into the hall, and sat down while pinching his brow.
During this period, Zhang Rong has been holding various meetings with the high-ranking members of the Zhanmi Bureau in Guangxia City, discussing how to maximize the role of his newly promoted Shengyang Realm.
This kind of mentally taxing task really took up a lot of Zhang Rong's energy.
Seeing this, Chi Chen, Lin Bai, Qing Sheng, and Hu Miaomiao also went back into the hall and sat down, looking at Zhang Rong, who had suddenly arrived, with puzzled expressions.
"Captain, what's up?"
Chi Chen asked a question with a hint of doubt.
"Did you kill a few people from the Nordic region a while ago?"
Zhang Rong looked at Chi Chen and asked. He was also stunned when he first learned about this. He did not expect Chi Chen to be so decisive in killing. He had never killed anyone before, but he did not hesitate at all when he took action.
"Um!"
Chi Chen nodded, recalling Karl's last words before he died, and a guess formed in his mind.
"What happened? Tell me in detail!"
Although Zhang Rong knew about this, it was all just a rumor from the Nordic side. In fact, many of the higher-ups in the Secret Bureau didn't know who actually killed Karl. It was just that the news from the Nordic side made Zhang Rong immediately think of Chi Chen.
Three men and one woman, one of whom, a young man with superhuman strength, is none other than Chi Chen and his group.
"This is what happened..."
Seeing this, Chi Chen recounted without reservation what had happened after they encountered You Huang and the others that day.
"Obsidian? You Huang's luck is pretty good!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Rong raised an eyebrow. In the dimensional world, obsidian is rarely seen except in a few fixed mines with extremely low yields.
That Huang was lucky to find one outside the city!
"What's wrong, Captain? You came here just to hear the whole story?!"
Chi Chen continued to ask.
"Heh, didn't you kill a core member of the Smith family of the Nordic theater? They want you to pay with your life, so they sent people to Great Xia to threaten you, saying that if you don't hand over the person, they'll start a full-scale war in Dawn City and Guangxia City!"
Zhang Rong looked at the chair and spoke the other party's threatening words in the most relaxed tone.
"Oh, what did the higher-ups say? Do they want to hand me over? Then I'd better pack my bucket and run away right away?"
Chi Chen spoke, his eyes fixed on Zhang Rong.
"Heh, you little rascal!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Rong was slightly taken aback. When did Chi Chen become so mischievous?
"Hand you over my ass! Those bastards in Dawn City of the Nordic War Zone have caused countless losses to Guangxia over the years, both openly and secretly. We're lucky they haven't bothered them. And now they dare to provoke us. Besides, they're not in the right. If they want to hand you over, not only will I disagree, but even the higher-ups will curse them to death!"
Zhang Rong waved his sleeve and said domineeringly, "If the other party wants my men, isn't that just asking for a beating?"
Since Zhang Rong advanced to the Shengyang Realm, he has also shown some changes, becoming more domineering and unrestrained than before.
In the last battle with Kalba, Zhang Rong originally intended to perish together with Kalba, but unexpectedly, things did not go as he wished. In fact, Zhang Rong accidentally stepped into the Shengyang Realm, which he had been seeking for many years without success.
After the breakthrough, Zhang Rong's mindset also changed. He treated himself as if he had already died once, and threw all his past worries to the back of his mind. From now on, he only had one goal in his heart, which was to protect the Great Xia and help Chi Chen and the others grow up.
"I came here to remind you that although Guangxia City is unlikely to hand over the people, with the capabilities of the Nordic War Zone, it will be easy for them to find out exactly who killed the Smith family members. After all, there are many people and many eyes in Guangxia City, so you must be more careful when you leave the city in the future. I can't keep an eye on you all the time, understand?"
Zhang Rong looked at the group and continued, "Of the four people in front of me, not to mention Hu Miaomiao, whom I don't know very well yet, the other three are all rising stars who could shine in their own right. Zhang Rong has been too busy lately and hasn't had a proper talk with Chi Chen and the others. He's really worried that they might get a little arrogant because of their strength."
"Alright, alright, Captain, when did you become so fussy? Don't worry, we'll be careful. Besides, even if Lin Bai and I get cocky, we still have Brother Qing watching us, right?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Chen naturally understood Zhang Rong's meaning and replied with a smile.
Seeing this, Zhang Rong paused for a moment, then gave the four more instructions before leaving again. He came and went in a hurry.
However, Zhang Rong did not forbid Chi Chen and the others from leaving the city in the short term. Although the Smith family in the Nordic war zone must have their eyes on Chi Chen and the others, Chi Chen has been in danger every time he has come this far.
The road to growth is always accompanied by thorns. This is the grudge between Chi Chen and the younger generation of the Nordic Smith family. As long as the older guys don't make a move, Zhang Rong won't interfere in this matter.
Firstly, Zhang Rong had confidence in Chi Chen and his group; secondly, this was a good experience for Chi Chen and his group.
Chi Chen and his companions only have experience in dealing with mystical matters, but they have virtually no experience in fighting against humans. Given Chi Chen's unique circumstances, he will definitely encounter heretical taboos in the future. This sudden incident involving the Norse Smith family is a great opportunity for Chi Chen to gain experience.
"Nordic? The Smith family, you'd better know your bottom line, or else, hehe!"
Zhang Rong walked through Guangxia City, his gaze fixed on the direction of Shuguang City. If the other party really did something out of line, he wouldn't mind making the Nordic War Zone his first battle after his promotion!
...
Half a day later, in Guangxia City, two high-performance off-road vehicles roared out; it was Chi Chen and You Huang, along with others.
This time, with a veteran like You Huang leading the team, Chi Chen, Lin Bai, Qing Sheng, and Hu Miaomiao planned to stay outside the city for a few days and explore further afield.
...
Less than half an hour after Chi Chen and his group left the city, two teams of ten off-road vehicles from within Dawn City also sped out of the city.
Because there are no satellites in the dimensional world, the time it takes to transmit messages is naturally not as fast as on Earth. Therefore, there are special ways to transmit information in the dimensional world.
Therefore, the first thing the Smith family did upon receiving the news was to send a team towards the Great Xia.
One of the teams was naturally sent by the Smith family, while the other was from the Wilson family. Although Carl's death had little to do with Owen, the Wilson family still had to show the Smith family a certain attitude.
There were 80 people in the two convoys, but none of them were above the Ascension Realm. They dissipated. Although Edward was furious about his son's death, he also knew that the overall situation did not allow him to take reckless revenge.
...
Inside the high-level meeting room of the Secret Bureau in Guangxia City.
"The Nordic theater sent as many as 80 people. Although their skill levels were all kept within a reasonable range, they still don't take us seriously!"
Ning De, the second-in-command, sat in his chair and spoke in a somewhat cold voice, looking at Zhang Rong in front of him.
"Send some people out to follow them secretly, but not too many, and they don't need to show themselves at the beginning!"
Zhang Rong pondered for a moment before answering.
"You really have a lot of faith in them!"
Ningde paused for a few seconds upon hearing this.
"Hehe, without encountering favorable winds and clouds, how can one transform into a dragon!"
Zhang Rong chuckled twice. Although he knew this would put Chi Chen and the others in a dangerous situation, there was nothing he could do. Chi Chen had to grow up as soon as possible, at least to the same level as him!
