The End of the Earth

Everything is going well, and the meeting reached a consensus on how to deal with Gu Makong.

It is not advisable to be too decisive when facing the Elf Kingdom at the moment, but to respond with a humble attitude.

Gumakong and his subordinates were detained together and treated according to the standards of the base's current combat teams.

Some people disagreed with this arrangement, but agreed with it based on the explanations given by others.

After the war ended, the martial law at the base was lifted and residents were allowed to travel freely.

The newly built iron fence outside the base became a place of curiosity for them, and people often asked about the temporary prisoner accommodation point.

Currently, nearly 80% of the demon soldiers in the base are carrying out the task of supervising these nearly 2,000 prisoners.

At Shan Qiao's suggestion, Xiang San ordered his men to send several high-ranking officers among the captured armored troops back to the Elf Kingdom.

The fighting stopped for a while, and no one knew how long the calm atmosphere would last. Standing on the mass-absorbing tower on the roof of the command center building, Xiang San overlooked the base and listened to the residents cheering for the victory over the great commander and the demon army and the Elf Kingdom.

He certainly didn't feel happy at all that the elven kingdom under the rule of Callista would attack his territory.

This shows that the Elf Kingdom is not led by Kalista alone. If the news of Gumakong's defeat reaches the Elf Royal Court, will they gather more troops in anger to attack the rocket base?

He really wasn't afraid of anyone, but what should he do with the more than a thousand residents under his rule?

Facing the Elf Kingdom, he cannot blindly rely on his own strength to act arbitrarily.

"Commander! Why are you so high up? Would you please come down and chat?"

Xiang San looked in the direction of the voice and found it was Lu Shengxian. Now that Minister Lu's status had been promoted, he could come to his demon cocoon without Xiang San's approval.

Xiang San jumped off the mass-absorbing tower and returned to the demon cocoon room. He smiled and said, "What did Mr. Lu want to talk to me about?"

Lu Shengxian came to the door and motioned Xiang San to go out and talk. Xiang San understood and smiled. He knew that Lu Shengxian was afraid of the shape of the demon's cocoon. A room covered with flesh and blood and squirming would scare anyone.

"Commander"

Xiang San stretched out his hand to stop Lu Shengxian from continuing to speak and said sternly: "Mr. Lu, just call me Xiang San in private.

We are all people of temperament, so we don't need to be so distant in private."

Lu Shengxian agreed with Xiang San's words and realized that this person in power was not the same person he had met before.

"Xiang San, regarding how the Elven Kingdom will treat our rocket base, are our previous arrangements too passive? I really can't hold it in any longer and must talk to you about this."

Xiang Sanliang leaned on the railing and watched the weather getting darker and colder. He frowned and said, "I understand what Mr. Lu is thinking. In fact, everyone understands.

The reason why the Elf Kingdom has been able to fight Russia for so long is because of its hard power.

Mr. Lu, think about it, even if our rocket base wins a small and insignificant battle now, it will not have much impact on the Elf Kingdom.

And if there are people with high combat power in the Elf Kingdom who fan the flames and attack us with a larger force, what should we do then?

What do you think? "

Lu Shengxian's forehead was wrinkled, and he held his chin as he thought about Xiang San's words.

"Even with that thing, we can't repel the Elf Kingdom's army?"

Lu Shengxian pointed at the towering giant outside the base and asked.

"You mean it? It's called the Skeleton Demon, and it's my other body. With it by my side, I can do anything.

But once the war expands, the flames of war will inevitably affect the residents of the base.

We should show weakness and compromise with the Elven Kingdom."

Lu Shengxian understood what he meant and no longer had any doubts. He took a deep breath and said, "Old man, I understand. Commander Xiang is indeed different from the leaders I have met before."

Xiang San looked at Lu Shengxian with interest and asked, "Old Lu, could you please tell me about the past? I have been underground for more than ten years, so I don't know much about what is happening on the surface."

Lu Shengxian waved his hand and said, "These are all dirty stories from the past. In this era, whose story isn't filled with mud and filth? It's better not to mention them.

Being able to come to the rocket base is truly a blessing for Lu, not to mention being able to meet a young talent like the commander."

Xiang San couldn't help laughing and said, "I don't dare to call you a young talent. Considering my age, Mr. Lu can call me brother. Don't look at me so young, I'm actually about fifty years old.

I shaved my beard these past two days, and now I look a lot younger, don’t I? Haha~”

Lu Shengxian also laughed and joked, "If my daughter were here, I would definitely introduce her to you. Brother Xiang is also an honest man.

We hit it off right away."

Xiang San's smile gradually faded as he thought of his girl.

“Isn’t Mr. Lu’s family around?”

Lu Shengxian shook his head: "In China, I want to go back but there is no chance, it's too far away.

A few years ago, I got a plane with a group of people and prepared to fly to Asia, but we encountered some flying monsters on the way. Fortunately, we made a successful emergency landing.

There are monsters in the sky and on the earth that we don’t know about.

I've dreamed of returning home year after year, and I don't know how my wife and daughter's family are doing.

Xiang San narrowed his eyes and asked, "Daughter's family? Didn't Mr. Lu say he would introduce your daughter to me? How come she's already married? Are you teasing me?"

Lu Shengxian couldn't help laughing and said, "Oh my! Everyone says Commander Xiang San is a romantic figure. I, Old Lu, believe it today, hahahaha.

Alas, my daughter has a miserable life. Her husband treated her badly and they divorced after two years of marriage. She has been single and raising a child ever since."

Xiang San's face was filled with worry as he asked, "Is that so... Wait a minute? Which bastard spread this rumor? How did he become such a famous figure? Mr. Lu, tell me, which version did you hear?"

"Doctor Wang and her beautiful medical team are well known to everyone in the outer districts, especially the affair between Commander Xiang San and Doctor Wang. If conditions permit now, it would probably be published in a book."

Xiang San slapped the railing so hard that it changed its shape.

"fart!

Uh~Mr. Lu, I'm not talking about you.

I mean this rumor is ridiculous. Ms. Wang Gungun is my adopted sister, and I treat her as my own brother.

Mr. Lu, you can’t believe it.”

"Okay, okay, I believe what Brother Xiang said.

Rumors are like this, no matter what era or background, they are inevitable."

Xiang San sighed: "I will help you arrange to return to China when there is a chance. Don't worry, Mr. Lu."

Lu Shengxian couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. He knew that what the man in front of him said was most likely possible.

As people grow old, they miss their hometown, and returning to their hometown has always been his wish.

In the old days, he had to go abroad for inspection because of some things.

After the White Flash incident, billions of families fell apart. Fortunately, he had spoken to his family and learned that they were still alive.

"I believe it, I believe it... By the way, is Brother Xiang a Chinese?"

Xiang San raised his eyebrows and said, "Uh, maybe it is, maybe not. I used to have ID cards and passports from more than a dozen countries, but not from China.

If I had the chance, I would like to be a Chinese. Everyone says China is great, but I can only experience it in Chinese communities in various countries."

Lu Shengxian actually listened to Xiang San's chattering.

"Mr. Lu, do you want to possess the power of a demon?"

Xiang San looked at Lu Shengxian intently and asked.

“If I were a few decades younger, I, an old man, would have this desire to pursue physical strength.

But I belong to the past.

What I want now is to return to my homeland when my energy is exhausted.

Until your wish is fulfilled, I will do my best to help you protect the rocket base."

Xiang San retracted his demon cells and thought thoughtfully about Lu Shengxian's words.

Homeland, where is my hometown?
