Atomic Girl? Please salute the commander!

"Of course it's gambling. I think besides being on the battlefield, the second place that can excite you is definitely the gambling table. Don't look at this little girl, but she is a real gambling god. She will definitely not lose to you."

Based on the last experience of the two of them using the divine relics to compete with each other's strength and the previous agreement, Qi Xue liked it very much and would take a gamble when encountering problems.

It is very difficult to beat her with other things. Some things require a bit of luck and cheating.

"Oh? Is he that powerful? A child this young shouldn't even have awakened his special abilities."

Qi Xue glanced at the little girl in front of her.

He soon made the same mistake as Su Yi did when he first met Su Luoluo.

This is a mindset unique to old folks in the wasteland. Gods rarely bless young people because their emotions are not strong enough to motivate them, unless they are particularly precocious.

See the effect achieved.

Su Yi pretended to say, "Yes! Luo Luo, am I right?"

Su Luoluo understood and acted innocently: "Brother, what is a superpower? Is it the super-power they say on TV?"

Su Yi immediately cooperated: "Oh my, how come you don't even know this? Let Master Wushen explain it to you later. He is the most powerful psychic on Blue Star."

The two of them sang in unison and cooperated with each other until Qi Xue finally let go of his hand.

Sitting opposite Su Luoluo in the pavilion beside the red maple forest.

"The rules are simple, just regular Texas Hold'em. Each time you bet, you must bet at least one chip and at most three chips. Each person has five chances to fold. The first person to lose all their chips loses."

Su Yi explained in a low voice that he had deliberately made the rules very simple this time. The simpler the rules, the less room Qi Xue had to operate.

And controlling the chips prolongs the game duration.

Qi Xue did not show any objection and nodded slightly.

He didn't care about the rules at all and didn't seem to think about losing.

The psychic next to them was responsible for dealing the cards, and each of them distributed the cards in their hands fairly to the two of them.

Thanks to the ability to read minds, Su Luoluo doesn't need to resort to any cheating tactics. She can easily understand Qi Xue's ranking and his various inner thoughts through telepathy.

The rules this time were simply set up for her. She won the first two games easily, and was particularly decisive when placing her chips, as if she was sure of victory.

This performance piqued the interest of Qi Xue, who was originally feeling bored. Seriousness flashed in her eyes, and she began to treat this game with all her strength.

As the gambling game entered a white-hot stage, Su Yi looked up at the sky and then at the time on his mobile phone.

Feeling the flow of air, dark clouds rolled in from the horizon, and the red maple forests around him began to sway, he also knew that the time had come.

Everything is going as planned.

call--

The strong wind blew through the pavilion without any shelter.

Su Yi gave a look to the shadow member who was dealing the cards.

The other party immediately understood what he meant and pretended that he didn't hold the racket tightly, and the strong wind blew over him, causing the cards in his hand to fly around in all directions.

The card game that was in progress was suddenly interrupted. Qi Xue looked at the person who was dealing the cards with dissatisfaction.

Su Yi immediately leaned over, collected all the cards before they were blown away by the wind, handed them back to the dealer, and spoke slowly.

"Master Wushen, the weather today doesn't seem very good. The wind is too strong. How about we stop for a while and go somewhere sheltered from the wind?"

"No need." Qi Xue shook her head. She had just lost three games in a row before she even had a chance to start. What's the difference between changing places now and having already lost?

She reached out and snapped her fingers lightly.

An ice-blue halo swept across the entire red maple forest.

In an instant.

The clouds settled and the wind stopped.

The howling gale just now disappeared in an instant, the dark clouds no longer spread to this place, and even the fallen leaves blown down by the wind were suspended in the air, ignoring the influence of gravity.

The trees bent their waists, the flowers and plants could not stand up straight, the insects stopped chirping, and everything stopped, all sealed in this still time.

Except for the interior of the pavilion.

There was no more sign of activity around.

Time stood still again. To Su Yi, this was something he was already accustomed to, and he did not show any panic on his face.

Although the two shadow-powered people beside him were shocked, they had received strict training and would not show any cowardice because of the danger.

Only Su Luoluo, who had never seen the world, looked at this magical scene, shaking his head left and right wildly, his brain almost unable to digest it.

They all stopped!

It is a magical girl's unique ability to pause time during battle!

She really didn't expect that she would be able to see it with her own eyes. However, before she could express her surprise, she saw Qi Xuefeng speaking calmly.

"Go on, no one can disturb you now."

Su Luoluo didn't know what was going on, she could only look at Su Yi, and was assured of being ignored.

This brought his attention back to the casino.

Su Yi waited quietly and remained silent.

It was not until the two of them were concentrating on looking at the cards that he took the opportunity to get in front of Qi Xue.

"Xiaoxue, I'm in Shu County and have some things to take care of. You guys go down first, I'll be leaving first."

Since Qi Xue was seriously looking at the cards and thinking about why the girl in front of her could always beat her, she didn't take his words to heart and nodded habitually.

"go."

Walk to the promise.

Su Yi retreated silently and disappeared in the pavilion. He retreated to a certain distance, walked under a red maple tree, and gently patted a girl who was disappearing in the shadow.

The heart flame was injected to help dispel the ice on his body that could freeze time.

Lolisi opened his eyes, holding his sword in his hand, and asked quietly: "Sir, can we finally take action?"

Su Yi nodded and took the sword. All the softness and smile on his face faded away, his eyes turned dark red, and murderous intent wrapped around every part of his body.

"Time has stopped here. Now it's our turn to help the guys from the Holy Land Organization complete the space tunnel."

"Don't they all want to kill me with their own hands?"

"This time I want to see who really has the courage."

Chapter 288: Chief of the Holy Land Organization (4k)

The footsteps gradually became heavier, and the messenger trotted through the corridor with the information in his hand. Amid the puzzled gazes of the people nearby, he arrived at the office of the supreme commander of the Haidu Command.

There was a meeting going on in the room, and the noise was very chaotic. Normally, one shouldn't go in at this time, as people of lower rank were not qualified to interrupt a meeting of this level.

But this time the situation was a little special. The messenger expressed his intention to the soldier stationed at the door and was soon allowed to enter.

"Commander Gu, Li Chengyuan just sent us a message through the internal hotline requesting assistance. He said that an alien invasion was discovered in the northern border and wants us to provide artillery and material support."

After the herald finished speaking, the officers who were discussing the preparations for the defense of various cities all held their breath and looked towards the door in unison.

"What did you say? An alien invasion! Is it coming so soon? Didn't the great prophet say that the invasion would bring about the end of the world? What's going on..."

The news was too shocking. They were making preparations, but the enemy had already arrived, so quickly and so suddenly.

But soon everyone realized one thing.

Chief of Staff Wang Du was the first to ask, "Isn't Mr. Li preparing a new corps of superpowered individuals? When did he go to the northern border, and bring such important news?"

Everyone present agreed. How could such a big change happen so soon after the center had just assigned them tasks?

The messenger placed the intelligence documents and various procedures issued by the Central Command on the table. "Commanders, this time we have obtained the enemy's internal intelligence in advance. The Central Command must urgently mobilize the Central Command Garrison to carry out the operation."

"Mr. Li also received the order at the last minute and was preparing to set up an ambush on the enemy's route. Time waits for no one. If we don't cooperate in time, the opportunity may be missed."

After checking the information and various procedures handed over and confirming that everything was correct, Wang Du nodded decisively without any hesitation.

"If that's the case, we must seize the moment. We've never fought against an alien army before, and no one knows their combat effectiveness. If we can seize the initiative, our chances of victory will greatly increase."

After saying that, he took a step forward and volunteered, "Commander Gu, let me lead the troops to provide support. I know a lot about people with special abilities and have a decent relationship with the special forces. I'm sure we can complete the mission this time."

These words were said so quickly that the people around him didn't even have time to react. After he finished speaking, the officers around him finally reacted and looked at Wang Du with envy and jealousy.

As soldiers, they are naturally not afraid of fighting. Da Xia has been at peace for many years, and it is extremely difficult to gain military merit. This time they are fighting against an alien army, an unprecedented enemy, and it is an ambush. The chances of winning are high and there is a great possibility of winning.

However, the person who was speaking was the chief of staff, one of the senior leaders of the command, so this person felt embarrassed to speak up and did not have the qualifications to argue.

Everyone's eyes turned to the main seat.

Gu Wen, who was always kind in military uniform, seemed to be distracted. His thick brows were furrowed, and his old face was covered with a thick layer of gloom. He kept pressing the shiny rosewood Buddhist beads in his hand. It was unknown what he was thinking about, and he did not reply for a long time.

The atmosphere fell into a brief stalemate.

Wang Du was worried about the current situation. This request for help could not be delayed. He reminded again: "Commander Gu, what do you think? This is a critical moment. We can't hesitate any longer."

"Indeed..." Gu Wen nodded, the Buddhist beads in his hand making a clattering sound. "Then I'll leave it to you this time. However, the Central Government hasn't issued any official troop deployment documents. We can only provide some supplies and weapons. The rest is not very convenient."

After thinking about it, he agreed to it. A cold light flashed in his eyes. He raised his eyes and glanced at the messenger at the door, and asked in a low voice.

"Did the message from Li Chengyuan mention the source of the information?"

The herald shook his head. "That hasn't been disclosed. It's probably the Central Intelligence Network. Perhaps the Central Intelligence Network has already made preparations and planted spies in the other world."

Gu Wen said nothing more. He looked at Wang Du, who was ready to take action at any time.

"Chief of Staff Wang, I'll leave this operation to you. However, this matter is of great importance and must not be taken lightly. First, go and discuss with Li Chengyuan what they want, and then make new personnel arrangements."

"Yes!"

Wang Du straightened his military uniform, stood up respectfully and saluted, then was the first to leave the commander's office.

After he left, a large group of officers also stood up and said goodbye, following Wang Du, wanting to get close to him and take the opportunity to go to the battlefield in the north instead of staying in the command center and getting frustrated.

Seeing that all the officers had left, the messenger slowly retreated.

Instant time.

The office was filled with the faint scent of fragrance, the moonlight shone through the curtains and reflected into the room, returning to silence.

pat pat pat.

The sound of the Buddhist beads being pressed was particularly obvious at this moment, and the sound echoed in the spacious office and took a long time to dissipate.

Gu Wen took a deep breath and after making sure that everyone had left, he stood up from his seat, walked across the exquisite wooden floor, and walked around the room repeatedly, counting on his Buddhist beads.

His thick eyebrows were tightly furrowed, a trace of gloom appeared on his old face. He stood by the window and looked out, his fingers fiddling with the Buddhist beads more and more hurriedly.

"Something's wrong. How could this happen... How could the attack on the North, which the organization had been planning for so long, be leaked? Is there really an undercover agent within the organization?"

He pondered over it in his mind.

As the first person in the organization, codenamed Capricorn.

As the leader of the Holy Land organization, he entered Daxia under a substitute identity decades ago to deal with the Valkyrie and plan the advent of the Holy Land.

With the dual support of wasteland technology and intelligence, he directed and acted himself and continuously achieved dazzling achievements on the border.

He has been extremely low-key over the years and almost never appears in public in the organization. In order to conceal his identity, he even planned a marriage. He actually had children and even grandchildren in Daxia and established a family.

While secretly controlling every move of the organization, he eliminated dissidents and constantly established false achievements and promotions.

He climbed to his current position step by step and successfully became an important figure in the military of Daxia.

Gu Wen continued to wander around the room, pinching the Buddhist beads in his hand, but could not think of the answer.

Logically speaking, all plans should be perfect.

On the surface, all the seat holders are carrying out their own plans, but in fact, everything is secretly controlled by him.

Even though Gu Wen never attends the organization's internal meetings, he will cover his face when appearing in video conferences to maintain his mystery and concealment, to avoid being exposed and being targeted by the Valkyrie.

But all the recent events in Daxia related to the organization are inseparable from his planning. The explosion in Luocheng, the assassination of the researcher, the Valkyrie's fight with Sequence Two planned by Jin Ming, and this invasion of the North were all secretly manipulated by him.

The operation was secretive.

Even many low-level seat holders don't know.

He only told those selected for the mission.

Aries, who was in charge of the mission, was personally supported and trained by himself. He had lived under the organization since birth and fully accepted the concept of the arrival of the holy land without any doubt.
