Chapter 404 The Calm Before the Storm After the Great Battle



"World War is still a bit of an exaggeration."

Su Bai patted him on the shoulder with amusement.

With so many combatants, Su Bai was able to feel a little more at ease.

There shouldn't be any major problems in the short term.

The days following the great battle were a rare period of leisure for Su Bai.

His daily routine consisted of leading his swarm of insects to patrol his three territories—the desolate wilderness, the barren desert, and the monsoon plain.

The Dragon Kingdom lords of the Monsoon Plains had almost fully recovered, and when Su Bai arrived, they all invited him to stay for a meal.

"Su Bai, we really owe you a lot last time!"

Zhou Chiliang has already come to regard Su Bai as a brother.

That previous idea has completely vanished.

"We're all compatriots, there's no need to be so polite!"

When Su Bai first awakened, he received strong support from Guo Jing of the military region because he was of Chinese blood.

Faced with such a great calamity, he naturally would not abandon his compatriots who shared the blood of the Dragon Kingdom.

"Su Bai!"

Zhou Chiliang was so moved he couldn't express it. He immediately picked up his wine bowl and said, "I won't say more. It's all in the wine. I'll drink it first!"

Lin You and the others have just recovered. Some have largely recovered, while others still need to use wheelchairs for the time being.

For their health reasons, Su Bai insisted on stopping them from drinking.

"We also thank Brother Su Bai for his care. Let's drink to tea instead of wine today!"

With that, he tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

"Thank you! Once you brothers are all better, let's drink until we're completely drunk!"

"We won't leave until we're drunk!"

Su Bai downed the wine in his bowl in one gulp and couldn't help but exclaim, "Good wine!"

The wine from the monsoon plains is different from other places. It has a sweet aftertaste and a lingering aftertaste. The mellow and refreshing wine goes down the intestines into the stomach without any burning sensation.

It's like a clear mountain spring; drinking it feels like a gentle breeze through the forest, so refreshing.

"That's right! We may not be able to say much about other things in the Monsoon Plains, but our wine is absolutely top-notch! If Brother Su Bai likes it, please take some back with you!"

"Then I shall gladly accept your offer! Thank you, brothers!"

Su Bai cupped his hands in greeting again, and before everyone was completely drunk, he got straight to the point.

"Do you have any leads on those foreign lords you questioned earlier?"

"Look at me, I was so engrossed in drinking that I almost forgot about the important matter!"

Zhou Chiliang slapped his forehead and replied, "Brother Su Bai, you'd better be more careful from now on."

"What's wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Su Bai put down his wine bowl and sat up straight.

"According to that bastard Albert, it seems the US will send a powerful figure to target you later."

"Oh? What kind of powerful expert?"

"He doesn't know that. That bastard is just a dog of the United States; he doesn't know much."

Su Bai stroked his chin and asked again, "What about Qingmu Chong? Did you find out anything?"

"He's even more useless. He knows nothing about Japan. He's a complete waste!"

"What a piece of trash."

Su Bai sighed and clicked his tongue, feeling a little regretful.

If only I had known that I would have spared the lives of the high-ranking lords sent by Japan and India back then.

We should be able to get some information from the high-ranking lords.

"What do you plan to do next?"

Su Bai pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, "Let it go. I feel at ease having you all watching over things in this monsoon plain."

"Release them?"

Qian Shoucheng could hardly believe his ears.

He was tortured terribly by those bastards, and he was the first Dragon Kingdom lord to be attacked, so you can imagine how much he hated them.

“Lord Qian, I know you hate them, but in the end they are foreign lords.”

Su Bai said in a deep voice, "If we keep the foreign lord imprisoned for too long, it will give those scoundrels something to talk about, and they might use this as an excuse to cause trouble!"

Previously, he had only fought against the Floating City, but those people took the opportunity to cause trouble and created an "anti-Soviet White" alliance.

They even came up with the absurd reason that eliminating him was for the sake of peace on the monsoon plain.

If they don't release them now, they'll only have more reason to cause trouble for them!

Guo Jing and the others had shown Su Bai great kindness, and Su Bai did not want to cause them any trouble if necessary.

"At that time, it will be difficult for our country to explain this in the international arena."

After all, the countries are currently maintaining a superficial peace, and it is not appropriate to forcibly detain them as prisoners of war.

Upon hearing this, the lords fell silent.

It has to be said that Su Bai was right.

Once it rises to the national level, one cannot just think about one's own enjoyment.

They represent the face of the country, so naturally they have to consider everything carefully.

Seeing this, Su Bai added another sentence.

"However, since they've caused trouble here, we believe they won't dare to object if we punish them slightly according to our laws."

He smiled and said, "I am not very familiar with the Monsoon Plains. I believe you lords are more familiar with it than I am. You know better than I how to get here."

Su Bai's smile resembled that of an old fox. He leisurely picked up his wine bowl and swirled the liquid: "As long as we let them go back alive in the end, they will naturally have nothing to say."

"If we don't make an example of them, they'll really think our Dragon Kingdom has no one to rely on, and that everyone can bully us!"

Upon hearing this, everyone smiled again.

"Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"

Lin You slapped his thigh, his face beaming with undisguised excitement.

"Don't worry, we will definitely 'treat' them well!"

Qian Shoucheng also laughed.

If it weren't for his physical limitations, he would have been excited enough to get up and walk around a few times.

"To Su Bai!"

"Let's have a drink, to my brother!"

"Me too!"

...

Everyone raised their glasses, and Su Bai also raised his glass, clinking it with everyone else's.

The drinking party didn't end until very late.

Su Bai declined the suggestion to stay overnight in the Monsoon Plains and rode the alien dragon back to the insectoid territory.

A few stars shone in the night sky, and the cool evening breeze sobered Su Baijiu up a bit.

He relaxed his body, gazing at the vast night sky as he pondered Zhou Chiliang's words.

[It seems the US will send a powerful figure to target you afterwards.]

An even stronger power?

His fame had spread far and wide in the battles of the Monsoon Plains, including the fact that the Zerg swarm had defeated two high-ranking lords and their legions.

The United States must have heard about it too.

In this situation, they certainly wouldn't send a high-ranking lord to deal with it like Japan and India.

They will definitely send out an unusual opponent.

Unfortunately, Su Bai didn't know enough about the US high-level officials, and after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what kind of opponent he was going to face.

This feeling of the enemy being in the dark while he was in the light caused Su Bai's mind, which had only relaxed for a short time, to sink again.

It seems we need to be more vigilant from now on.

Su Bai clenched his fist and waved it into the air with an air of certainty.

The day he awakened to the Zerg seems like only yesterday. Back then, he could never have imagined that he would be facing such a formidable enemy now.

As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the more enemies one has.

The moment he embarked on his journey, Su Bai was already prepared to see it through to the end.

Even if there are thousands upon thousands of enemies, what is there to fear!
