Wangyou City Modern Military Camp

Instance group chat group:

Liu Fengqi asked doubtfully, "Why don't you go to training?"

Wang Changming replied in surprise: "Ah? I'm in the dungeon!"

Liu Jialiang asked curiously: "Liu Zi, what's the matter?"

Qi Kai then said, "I'm in the dungeon. This time I'm protecting Doctor Yan Shoubo..."

Liu Fengqi asked doubtfully, "Did you all receive the [Queen's Bloody Rose]?"

Qi Kai said puzzledly: "I received it. I was also wondering why I received it twice, 10 flowers once and 2 flowers once?"

Liu Fengqi explained, "Just now, all our warriors in Wangyou City received 10 [Queen's Bloody Roses], and all the people from China who entered the dungeon received 2 roses!"

He Xin said in surprise: "No, is this queen crazy?"

Liu Jialiang said excitedly, "The Queen isn't crazy, we're going crazy! Especially since everyone in Wangyou City gets 12 roses, which means 12 lives!"

Wang Changming said puzzledly, "Why is this so mysterious? It makes me feel like I'm floating in the sky~"

He Youxing said excitedly: "Brothers, I just heard about this from the Qin soldiers over there. Do you want to hear it?"

Liu Fengqi stared at him in confusion: "Speak! If you pause again, I'll whip you!"

Qi Kai looked at him with contempt: "Oh, the little sparrow is still keeping us in suspense!"

He Youxing pouted, a smug look on his face. "Well, I asked a lieutenant general, and they harvested roses twice, just like us, twelve in total."

Li Wenliang was immediately interested when he heard this. "What else? Go on! It's not just this!"

He Youxing gave him a look that said, "You're the only one who understands," and then said, "That deputy general also said that all their generals went to the City Lord's Mansion..."

Fan Tianning yelled angrily, "Hurry up and say it! Stop breathing so hard! I really want to beat you up!"

He Youxing showed a frightened expression, "I heard from the deputy general that something urgent happened to the city lord, and it must be something bad. All their generals and Mohists rushed to the city lord's mansion!"

Liu Fengqi asked thoughtfully, "So, the roses were given to them only after they went to the City Lord's Mansion?"

He Youxing nodded with certainty, "Of course! Something big must have happened, otherwise these generals wouldn't be so anxious!"

Liu Fengqi felt that he needed to report this matter to his grandfather, because he felt that things were not as simple as they seemed. So he told his thoughts to the grandfather.

At this time, Bai Lao on the side spoke first: "We should go to the City Lord's Mansion in person to find out what happened."

However, Mr. Liu raised some concerns: "If we don't say hello in advance, is it appropriate to visit us suddenly like this?"

Bai Lao responded meaningfully, "Since we were able to learn this news from the general, it means they don't consider us outsiders. Furthermore, if we knew this news but remained indifferent, it would be impolite. After all, we live in the same city, but lack communication. Doing so would be a bit rude."

Elder Liu retorted, "Then why can't we assume that this is exactly what the other party wants? Let each force remain independent and not interfere with each other."

Old Gu tapped the table lightly with his fingers and said slowly, "This may be a rare opportunity to have a normal exchange with the Mohists..."

Minister Zhou nodded in agreement and suggested, "We can invite a few veteran comrades from the Academy of Sciences to go with us and see if there is a chance to communicate with the Mohists."

Old Liu looked at the old guys in front of him and felt helpless and headache.

These guys were all eager to try and looked like they couldn't wait to take action, which made him feel very difficult.

He couldn't help but frown and asked in a serious tone, "Do you really think so? What if this causes a backlash?"

Political Commissar Liao stood up suddenly, a determined look on his face, and said loudly: "We just want to care about them, we have no other thoughts!"

His voice was full of determination and sincerity, which made people feel that he took this matter seriously.

Minister Yan also nodded in agreement and continued, "Yes, we can't just enjoy the benefits they bring us without caring about them. They've clearly had problems this time, so we should take the initiative to help and give them a leg up..."

His eyes revealed a sense of responsibility and mission that could not be ignored.

Director Xu certainly understood what Elder Liu was thinking, but he still tried to persuade him: "We are simply going there to offer our condolences, not to investigate the City Lord's true identity. You don't have to worry too much. Even if we learn the truth, we will definitely keep it a secret!"

However, Elder Liu still didn't nod in agreement. He said firmly, "We've received so many benefits, how can we expose their true intentions? The only way to survive is to strive for development."

At this time, Gu Lao also joined in the fun and echoed: "We are not like those people like Ouyang who will do anything to achieve our goals. We have our own bottom line and principles in doing things."

Bai Lao further explained, "Actually, we just hope that the old guys in the Academy of Sciences can learn from the Mohists. After all, they have people from the future interstellar space, and these technologies will bring us endless benefits..."

Liu Fengqi looked at his stubborn grandfather and finally couldn't help but persuade him, "Grandpa, maybe we should go and take a look ourselves. If we can help solve the problem, that would be great; but if we can't, at least we've done our best."

Seeing that everyone agreed, Director Wu took the initiative to take on the responsibility of preparing gifts: "Since we have decided to go to express our condolences, we, a group of grown men, can't go empty-handed. Wouldn't that seem too disrespectful?"

Old Liu looked at him with contempt, "What kind of gift are you preparing? He's either an ancient general from two thousand years ago or an intelligent robot from the future. He's seen everything..."

Director Wu's face suddenly flushed red. "So what gifts should we bring?"

Political Commissar Liao looked at them helplessly and asked, "Shall we ask our chef to make some nutritious food to bring back as a token of our condolences?"

Old Liu glanced at him and said, "Didn't you eat the braised earth bear meat they sent last time? Can our chefs replicate that flavor?"

Political Commissar Liao turned around a few times and said, "So what do you think we should do? We want to go to the City Lord's Mansion, but we don't know what gifts to bring!"

Mr. Li looked at his old friend and said, "Old Liu, what are you doing? Tell me!"

Elder Liu looked at them and said, "If we go, we might end up being in trouble both inside and outside. We should also consider the people on the City Lord's side."

He tapped the table with his finger, "Since they're giving away so many [Queen's Bloody Roses], it means the problem has been solved. It would be a bit embarrassing if we go again!"

Director Xu came close to Elder Liu and said, "Let's put it this way. We're just going to get to know the God of War Bai Qi and the Mohists. We don't need to meet, ask, or investigate anyone else..."

Old Liu squinted at these old guys and said, "Tsk, if you were reliable, Ouyang and his group would still be able to jump around like this. What else can you do except compromise!"

Director Xu said embarrassedly, "We promise not to use politics here, and we will definitely not dig into other people's secrets!"

Elder Gu also expressed his firm stance, "We will not let the City Lord's Mansion down. We will not do anything that will chill people's hearts!"

Elder Liu looked at them and said, "Tsk, all the benefits we get in this dungeon world are given by others. You're eating and taking things, and you still have the nerve to mess with them?"

Political Commissar Liao explained with frustration, "We promise we're only there to offer condolences and will absolutely not do anything to upset others!"

Elder Liu pondered for a long time. "Can you put aside your official authority? Can you speak to them calmly? Can you, the high and mighty masters, put aside your arrogance?"

Political Commissar Liao said aggrievedly, "What kind of authority do we have? All those generals have more authority than us. How dare we offend our ancestors?"

Minister Zhou got angry and said, "When did we soldiers become so long-winded? We are definitely not those who play politics. We don't have any extra thoughts!"

Elder Liu also stood up and said, "This is what you promised. If you break it, I will turn my back on you!"
