NOVEL NEXT Chapter 852: Only Five People?
The crowd excitedly gathered around Qin Feng and the others, viewing them as hope.
Ziyi couldn't help but ask Brother Bing, "So, how did you recognize it was us and not blast us away directly?"
"It was that call of 'Grandpa Shi'."
General Shi laughed and said, "That kid is the first in history to dare to call me 'Grandpa Shi'. Other than my precious granddaughter Momo, everyone else respectfully calls me 'Elder Shi' or 'Old General'. Only he dares to call me that, so the impression is very deep."
"I see..."
Ziyi looked at Qin Feng with even more astonishment.
Turns out the "Grandpa Shi" he yelled earlier was not a gesture of friendliness, purely to ensure General Shi would recognize him.
At this moment.
After the greetings ended, General Shi ignored his injuries and spiritedly asked, "Now, the Deuterium Emperor is seriously injured. Although the remaining people from the Imperial Nether Demon Sect have strong cultivation, our Eastern Border Army is not just for show. Moreover, we have reinforcements from the Northern Border Army, West Earth Army, and Southern Domain Army. Taking them down shouldn't be a problem!"
The smile on everyone's face grew wider.
General Shi looked at Qin Feng again and said, "How many came this time? Presumably, quite a few from the Northern Border Army should have come! West Earth Army should have a lot of reinforcements too, while Southern Domain Army is hard to say. I have a small disagreement with that little girl, but surely Zuoqiu Feng should dispatch tens of thousands anyway!"
"Uh..."
Qin Feng was utterly confused.
Are other corps coming over too?
How come he knows nothing at all?
"Oh? Is it that not enough from the Southern Domain Army came? Forget it, since the Deuterium Emperor is seriously injured, we don't need that many to wipe them out, but the demon monk from the Ghost Abyss Seven Martial Evils isn't weak. Presumably, quite a few from the Northern Border Army and West Earth Army will come."
General Shi said.
"..."
Qin Feng was again confused.
Never heard these people would arrive.
Seeing him still looking bewildered, General Shi also doubted a bit, saying, "Could it be... not many of them came either? It makes sense, given the turmoil isn't only in the East Sea; surely they're having difficulties too, but whoever can come counts. All of my Eastern Border Army adds up to quite a few."
After saying.
He asked Qin Feng again, "Exactly how many came?"
"Uh, altogether... five."
Qin Feng said.
"Hm, five is okay... wait!! Five??!"
General Shi was startled.
The other people's excited cheeks instantly froze, they all stared at Qin Feng.
A long while.
General Shi slapped his thigh and excitedly said, "Could it be those five came? Nice, nice, it seems the higher-ups very much value this place! With the five of them, along with my Eastern Border Army, it's enough! The five Great Generals from the Dragon Bureau, actually all came! They might've known the Deuterium Emperor and the demon monks are here! But weren't they on an overseas Super S level mission..."
Others, upon hearing the five Great Generals from the Dragon Army came here, appeared even more excited.
The Dragon Bureau.
Is above the Dragon Group, White Lion Group, Tiger Shark Group, Fire Phoenix Team, Red Dragon Team, five special task forces.
These teams, except the Dragon Group, serve their respective corps and adhere to Dragon Bureau's command. The Dragon Group is directly under the Dragon Bureau's Special Warfare Group.
Besides the several special task forces, Dragon Bureau also has masters.
For instance, the famous five Great Generals, each one's strength unfathomable, with top-tier strength in Huaxia!
"With them here, it's enough!"
Everyone exclaimed excitedly.
"Uh..."
Qin Feng awkwardly said, "What I mean is, including the three of us, altogether only five people came."
"You three?"
General Shi became puzzled.
He looked at the three beside him and recognized among them was Princess Nami from the Mermaid Clan, and the two sisters Ziyi and Qingyi from the Dragon Group, a bad premonition set in, he hurriedly asked, "And who else?"
"There's Fang Wudi, and Qingyun from White Lion Group."
Qin Feng said.
General Shi felt a jolt in his heart and hurriedly asked, "Anyone else??"
"That's all."
"That's all?"
"That's all."
"..."
General Shi was stunned.
Others were also utterly confused.
After waiting so long, only these few came?
Ziyi at this time said, "We received the mission and rushed over immediately, Young Commander Ling Yun hadn't mentioned any other corps coming. On Peach Blossom Island, since no one mentioned someone would come, we were unaware the Imperial Nether Demon Sect was wreaking havoc here, only informed of your sudden disappearance and loss of contact. Later, two battleships were sent, but both lost news, hence we came."
"Didn't know the Imperial Nether Demon Sect was here?"
General Shi was astonished and then sighed deeply, "Seems the message wasn't delivered successfully..."
Initially.
Upon encountering the Imperial Nether Demon Sect here, they immediately sent a message to headquarters, requesting reinforcements.
In view of the past damage the Imperial Nether Demon Sect caused Huaxia, higher-ups also attach great importance to them, treating them as an SS-level task, reporting as soon as discovered, high command wouldn't hesitate to send forces to exterminate them.
Thus, hiding here they hoped higher-ups would dispatch reinforcements.
It's been so long.
Originally, hearing Qin Feng's voice, reinforcements had arrived, little expected only Qin Feng and his few came.
Though they belong to Dragon Group, White Lion Group's elites.
But facing the powerful cultivation, their strength was still too weak, not effective.
Suddenly.
Just now filled with laughter and a hopeful atmosphere, all fell silent.
Each one's face now showed endless disappointment.
"Seems, this time it will be a grim fate."
General Shi sighed.
By now, the time they held out here is fairly long.
Not ignoring how many are severely injured or ill.
The strong hunger already sapped their energy, let alone fight.
They haven't eaten for ages.
If this continues, it won't be long before they likely starve to death.
Precisely because of this.
Previously sent Brother Bing out to find food, they were nearly discovered by Imperial Nether Demon Sect.
At this moment.
Seeing everyone weak from hunger, Qin Feng retrieved a large amount of food from the Nayu Ring, including instant noodles, sausages, braised eggs, bread, canned fish, Lao Gan Ma chili sauce, and a few bottles of Yanjing-produced Erguotou.
As soon as people saw the food, their eyes lit up.
Starving for so many days.
Being able to eat such things, moved them to tears.
General Shi immediately distributed the food among them, though not a small amount, piled up to a person's height, still insufficient for hundreds, so it was shared separately, for instance, sausages in thirds, bread in quarters, instant noodles heated with Inner Strength for a big gulp each together.
"How did you bring so much here?"
General Shi ate a bite of instant noodles, comfortably drank a sip of Erguotou, feeling as happy as on the day of his wedding.
