I let you be a fugitive, not to set up a private army.

"Just yesterday, a general from our Federation was killed. Facing the vicious Chen Yongxiao, our General Dawn bravely and fearlessly led the charge to capture the enemy, but tragically died in the battle..."

In the streets and squares of cities large and small in the Free Federation, countless people stopped and watched the speech from the Chi Palace on the big screen.

Many people couldn't believe this scene:

"Didn't you say you were caught?"

"Yes, I also saw the news about the Dragon Kingdom's Martial God being captured, and there are photos."

"No, there's no such news on the official website of the Federation Military in Korea. I only saw the announcement of General Dawn's death."

"Absolutely, but it's probably been deleted."

Not only in the Free Commonwealth, the streets and alleys of South Korea are also filled with parked cars and people, each watching live news on their phones or TVs.

Although the official website of the police force has not been updated since the release of the video of "Chen Yongxiao eating tree bark", South Koreans who have been following this incident still have a general understanding of what happened.

The streets and shops are filled with the sounds of people chatting:

"The Federation is just talking nonsense."

"Who says it's not true? It was clearly the general who was held hostage because he was afraid of death, but now he's become a positive hero who died bravely."

"Mr. Chen is truly amazing. He was able to escape this fate."

"The sun is shining brightly today!"

While the people were talking to each other, Chi Gong's speech continued:

"Although General Dawn has gone to heaven to enjoy bliss, his fearless spirit will live on in our Federation forever and will continue to be passed down..."

"The Kujiragawa landing operation was a success. This confirms our Federation's resolve and unwavering determination to combat crime. This is a crucial moment in the global movement for justice."

Applause broke out in all the squares of the Free Federation.

"Bullshit, the Federation is so lame that it can't even catch a wanted criminal." A homeless man took a sip from a bottle of wine.

Although I don't know what will happen next with the army's pursuit, I'm surprised that the fugitive was able to kill the general in front of so many soldiers and still escape safely...

This is enough to show that the Federation must have made concessions and is no longer absolutely strong.

Looking up at the square, the person speaking had changed to a military representative:

"Whether Chen Yongxiao is the Martial God of South Korea or the Martial God of Dragon Nation, he will never have a peaceful day until the Federation brings him to justice for his evil deeds yesterday. He will live like a rat, trembling in fear in the sewer..."

"Finally, we declare Chen Yongxiao the Federation's most wanted criminal. Anyone or any team that captures or kills him will receive a federal bounty of $20 billion."

20 billion US dollars!!!

Is the world crazy, or is the Federation crazy?

Uncle Ben's net worth back then was only 5000 million US dollars. Even with the inflation of the past two decades, it is still far from comparable to the terrifying bounty announced at this moment.

After a moment of silence among the people who were shocked by the news, the square erupted into an uproar.

"Did I hear it wrong? 20 billion is too outrageous!"

"My friend, you heard me right. This is the astronomical figure. It's the highest bounty our Federation has ever offered, and it won't be seen again for the next hundred years."

"God, if I catch him, it will be enough for me to live a life of luxury for ten lifetimes."

"I'm going crazy. What a huge fortune! The Federation is really generous today."

Faced with such a terrifying astronomical figure, the sacrifice of the general and seemingly several soldiers were instantly forgotten.

The only thing left in my mind is: wealth everywhere!

Seeing the square in a frenzy, the homeless man shook his head and turned his gaze back, his heart also somewhat shocked:

The Federation has never been generous. 20 billion US dollars, how powerful must the other party be?!

Who has the life to get it? Just go to your death. Still thinking about wealth, you are a bunch of daydreaming idiots.

……

As soon as the reward amount was announced, the South Korean people were also overjoyed. In less than five minutes, the news became the number one trending search.

The comments section is full of praise for the Federation:

"Thumbs up to the Free Nation. This kind of bounty is worthy of our South Korean Martial God."

"The Federation looks particularly good today. Two billion US dollars is really something that can be offered. It's worthy of Brother Xiao's status."

Some people are worried:

"Everyone is terrified. This is too high. I wonder if many mercenaries will want to deal with me."

"Even a massive attack like the Jingchuan landing couldn't capture Mr. Chen. How could a man walking among thousands of troops be dealt with by those little guys? Please worry more about those who want to take the bounty."

"I'm not worried at all that they're trying to deal with our Martial God with just a few tricks. I'm actually looking forward to these guys coming to our door and getting beaten to death on the spot by the brutal Martial God."

Suddenly, a new comment with a rapid increase in likes caught people’s attention:

"Everyone, I saw on the Internet that the Dragon Kingdom has also offered a bounty to our Martial God."

"I heard through the grapevine that it was Longguo who rescued Mr. Chen. Why is there another reward?" someone asked.

The commenter replied: "Anyway, the reward has been paid, a full 20000!"

Someone with quick thinking immediately gave the answer: "20000 million, that is 20 million US dollars. Compared with the Federation's 2 billion US dollars, Dragon Country is a bit stingy, but it's acceptable."

The commenter replied again: "Brother, please look at the number I wrote again. It is 2, and it is not US dollars, but Chinese yuan."

"2 Chinese Yuan seems a bit small. Can someone tell me how much this is in US dollars?"

"It's about $3000, which is enough to buy two iPhones."

"..."

The comment section exploded directly:

"Brother Xiao is only worth $3000!!"

"This is simply unreasonable!"

"What a joke! Dragon Country is discriminating against and insulting our Martial God."

Even the girl who had expressed concern earlier started to reply: "This is too much. I'm so angry. I strongly urge Longguo to increase the bounty on me and stop insulting me."

"That's right. If any international students in Longguo see this, please protest to their official website. We should also protest to the Longguo Embassy in Seoul. $3000 is really too much."

"It's so insulting and extremely infuriating!"

until:

"Is it possible that Longguo is not wealthy and can't afford the money?"

……

Two hours later, all the staff of the Dragon Kingdom Embassy in Seoul were dumbfounded.

The embassy was forced to open a bank card, which is being generously donated by South Korean people, and the amount on the card is increasing explosively at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The money was clearly stated to be used to request Longguo to increase the reward amount for Chen Yongxiao.

Strange things happen every year, but this one is unheard of.

The person in charge smiled and said, "Send the cards back and ask the bank to return all the money to the people."
