Chapter 879: At All Costs!
Editor: Atlas Studios
The leader was a tall and burly Caucasian man wearing a black elastic vest and sunglasses.
This Caucasian hunk was the captain of Team Neltharion’s ninth team, Charles.
Not long ago, he received a distress signal from the Sand Sea Base.
Therefore, he brought his men over to see what was going on.
Although the peninsula base he was in charge of was the closest to here, it still took a lot of time to rush over.
After getting off the helicopter…
Charles hurried to the top of the sand dune with his men.
However, when he saw the scene in front of him…
Everyone seemed to have been struck by lightning as their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
From their vantage point…
The entire basin where the Sand Sea Base was located had already been charred black. There were charred corpses and burned buildings everywhere.
“Is this really the Sand Sea Base? Are you sure it’s not hell?!”
“Oh my god, what exactly happened here?!”
“Destroyed! The entire base has been destroyed!”
“Was there a fire here?”
The group of warriors cried out in surprise, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Charles’s eyebrows twitched. He was clearly shocked by the scene in front of him.
He waved his hand and said, “Let’s go and see if there are any survivors!”
Under Charles’s lead, hundreds of people ran into the base and began to search.
“Reporting to the captain, not a single one is alive!”
“Captain, Captain Fred is dead too!”
“The God Slaying Team is all dead!”
Reports came one after another.
Charles clenched his fists tightly and roared, “Damn it, who the f*ck did this?!
An entire base with more than 3,500 people is actually dead?!”
“Captain, what should we do now?”
A soldier asked in fear.
Charles gritted his teeth and said, “What else can we do? We have to report this matter to the headquarters immediately!”
As he spoke, he took out his phone and made a call.
After the call.
He said in a trembling voice, “Hurry up and clean up this place!”
“Yes!”
All the warriors responded in unison.
Then, Charles and the others began to clean up the sand sea base…
At the same time…
Country Stars & Stripes.
Snow City.
In the main building.
A spacious and bright conference room was filled with people.
The people sitting here were all the higher-ups of Country Stars & Stripes.
Not long ago, they had received orders to come over for an urgent meeting.
Therefore, they put down what they were doing and rushed over.
“What exactly happened? Why did Commander-in-Chief Douglas call us for an emergency meeting?”
“I don’t know. Something big must have happened!”
“Things have been happening one after another during this period of time. It’s really not peaceful!”
Everyone was discussing, but no one knew what had happened.
At this moment.
Bang!
The door of the conference room was pushed open forcefully.
Everyone was shocked and turned around.
A huge Caucasian man in military attire with a resolute face and sharp eyes strode in.
This Caucasian was called Douglas. He was the Commander-in-Chief of the various battle teams in Country Stars & Stripes. His nickname was “White-Headed Eagle”.
Seeing Douglas come in, everyone stood up and saluted at the same time.
Douglas’ face was extremely gloomy. He raised his hand and said, “Sit down.”
Only then did everyone sit down.
Douglas stood in front of the conference table and fell into a long silence.
Everybody present did not dare to ask when they saw Douglas’ gloomy face. They just waited quietly.
After a few minutes of silence…
“Phew…”
Douglas heaved a long sigh and said in a deep voice, “Everyone, let me tell you something now!
Not long ago, I received a piece of news!
The desert base we built in the Dehna Desert was destroyed overnight!
The captain of Team Neltharion’s tenth team, Fred, and more than 3,000 warriors have all died!”
The moment his voice trailed off.
The entire conference room fell silent.
A few seconds later.
The meeting room exploded.
“Commander-in-Chief, are you joking? The Sand Sea Base was actually destroyed?!”
“Oh my god, that’s impossible. The Sand Sea Base is guarded by our ace team, Team Neltharion’s tenth team. How could it be destroyed?!”
“Isn’t that so? Team 10 is equipped with all kinds of firearms and more than 100 sets of ‘God Slaying Armor’. Who can destroy them?”
“If you want to destroy the Sand Sea Base, you have to have more than 10,000 people and very good equipment. Otherwise, it’s impossible!”
Everyone present discussed non-stop, not believing that this matter was true at all.
“Quiet!”
Douglas roared.
Only then did everyone quiet down.
Douglas took a deep breath and said, “Believe it or not, it’s the truth!
Not long ago, the captain of Team Neltharion’s ninth team, Charles, had already called and sent a photo!
We can confirm that the Sand Sea Base has indeed been destroyed!”
“Commander-in-Chief, how could the Sand Sea Base be destroyed overnight?
Why didn’t we know anything before this?”
A Caucasian man asked.
A black man nodded and said, “Yes, isn’t this too strange?”
Douglas frowned and said, “I’m puzzled about that too.”
“Could it be that Dibai discovered our base and attacked us?”
Someone asked.
“Dibai?”
Douglas sneered and said, “Do they have the guts?
Even if they discover the Sand Sea Base, they will only denounce us a few times. They will definitely not attack directly!”
Everybody nodded and felt that Douglas made sense.
Even if Dibai was given more guts, they would never dare to attack their base.
“Then who did it?”
“Who has the guts to go against us?”
“Who could destroy the Sand Sea Base overnight and do it silently?”
Everyone’s faces were filled with anger, confusion, and confusion.
Holding the conference table with both hands, Douglas said in a trembling voice, “There will be no result even if we continue to speculate and discuss!
Now, you only need to do one thing!
Use whatever energy you can!
You have to investigate this matter at all costs!
Once this matter is properly investigated, we will find out who did it!
Then we will destroy the other party at all costs!”
“Yes!!!”
Everyone stood up at the same time and replied in shock.
…
After Yang Luo and the others left the Dehna Desert, they drove for a few hours.
It was not until past one in the afternoon that they finally arrived at the periphery of the Lute Desert.
“Mr. Yang, we’re here!”
The Lava Tyrant’s voice came from the car behind.
Soon, the two cars stopped.
Yang Luo and the others got out of the car.
They looked into the distance.
The vast desert stretched as far as the eye could see. It was vast and desolate. There was no one around.
There was not even a living creature, let alone a human.
Due to the high temperature, the air in the desert was constantly distorting and warping under their eyes.
Even though they were standing at the periphery, Yang Luo and the others could still feel their skin burning.
If they were not cultivators, they would not be able to take it even if they stood at the periphery, let alone enter the Lute Desert.
“Mr. Yang… are we really going in?”
The Lava Tyrant gulped and asked again.
“Enter!”
Yang Luo’s eyes were firm as he spat out a word and walked straight into the Lute Desert.
