Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

Chapter 8 The storm is surging
While Wang Xiu was taking deep breaths to calm himself, Lin Nianzhen secretly glanced at him.

Seeing Wang Xiu trying hard to calm down and suppress his impulse, Lin Nianzhen's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"You deserve it. Who told you to bully me?" A thought flashed through Lin Nianzhen's mind, and then he hugged her tighter as if on purpose.

……

While Wang Xiu was enjoying a rare moment of tenderness with Lin Nianzhen at home, major forces around the world were simultaneously in an uproar over a video.

Europe, HR Alliance Headquarters.

In a huge conference room, a battle video was being played on the screen in front of the table.

The video is not long, only a few minutes long, and does not look very clear.

Soon, the video was finished.

A burly white man sitting at the conference table frowned slightly and looked at a silver-haired old lady wearing a luxurious black leather jacket above the conference table.

"Chairwoman Isadorena, I wonder what you meant by calling us here?"

"Just for such an oriental kid who has just entered the God of War level?" The white man frowned slightly, obviously puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Speaker Isadore looked at the other people at the conference table and saw confusion and even dissatisfaction in their eyes.

After all, everyone here has at least the strength of a high-level war god, and there are even a few strong ones who surpass the war god level.

They were called here because of a word they said, but ended up just watching a battle video of a junior war god. It was a waste of time for them, so it was normal for them to feel a little dissatisfied.

"Please be patient." Isadorena smiled. "I believe you can see that this video is taken by satellite, so it is not very clear."

"But it is obvious that the warrior in the video definitely possesses the strength of a god of war."

Everyone in the conference room nodded when they heard this.

With their eyesight, even though the video was a little blurry, they could tell that the person in the video was extremely extraordinary in both his speed and swordsmanship, and was definitely a god of war-level warrior.

But even if he was a god of war, he wouldn't let Isadona go to so much trouble, right?

Everyone looked at Isadore, their doubts growing instead of decreasing.

Seeing the doubts in everyone's hearts, Isadorena stopped keeping everyone in suspense and said directly:

"According to our intelligence, this warrior is from China and is 25 years old today."

"He passed the warrior practical assessment at the age of 20 and became a warrior. He became a junior warrior about half a year ago. Even three months ago, he was still a junior warrior!"

"But he became a mid-level warrior a month ago, and now, he has the power comparable to that of a god of war!"

After saying this, Isadorena smiled and glanced at everyone in the conference room, then slowly said:

"And he is a warrior, a pure warrior, without any talent as a spiritualist."

"At least before he reached the level of a primary general, he did not show any talent as a psychic."

Everyone was silent.

In just three months, he jumped from a junior general to a god of war.

This kind of thing has happened before. Every psychic has a period of rapid growth in strength.

As long as the psychic's talent is high enough, let alone becoming a primary war god, even if he can reach the peak of a high-level war god in three months, they will only sigh at his good luck for having such an outstanding psychic talent.

But the Chinese man in the video is clearly just an ordinary warrior.

Even three months ago, the talent he showed was only decent, far from being a genius.

But it was such an "ordinary" Chinese warrior who suddenly crossed several realms within three months, and became a primary war god from a primary warrior.

"Speaker, this doesn't prove anything, does it?" The white warrior frowned and said, "At best, it proves that this guy got lucky and got a treasure like dragon blood or plant spirits that can enhance his strength from somewhere."

"This treasure is indeed precious, but it has already been used, so it has no value to us anymore."

"He's just a lucky Chinese warrior. I don't understand why you've gone to so much trouble to hold this meeting."

In response to the white warrior's doubts, Speaker Isadore simply smiled and said calmly, "The swordsmanship of the Chinese warrior in the video has reached the perfect level."

"However, I can tell you that just three months ago, his swordsmanship was at best at the beginning of his mastery level."

As soon as the words fell, the expressions of everyone present suddenly changed.

genius?

No, no, no, every genius has a traceable origin.

According to what Speaker Isadona had described earlier, this Chinese warrior was not considered a genius before.

Suddenly, an old voice sounded: "Speaker, what you mean is that the Chinese warrior may have discovered a previously undiscovered ancient civilization relic and obtained some treasures and secret books from it?"

Speaker Isadore looked in the direction of the voice and saw a white-haired old man sitting calmly on a chair in the conference room. His cloudy eyes occasionally flashed a gleam of light.

"Senator Yan Hai." Speaker Isadore, who knew the strength of the old man in front of her, did not dare to neglect him and smiled immediately, "No one can guarantee anything before the matter is confirmed."

"But judging by the current situation, it is very likely."

Then Speaker Isadore looked at everyone and said solemnly:

"The benefits contained in an unknown relic are unimaginable. Whether it is the cultivation method or the technology contained in it, or the spirits of various plants and trees, natural materials and treasures, they are all of great significance to our HR Alliance."

"The reason why Hong and Lei Shen are the strongest in the world is certainly because of their talents, but it is also because they occupy the vast majority of the ancient civilization relics."

"One step slow, every step slow."

"We didn't catch up before, but this time, our HR Alliance must not give up this opportunity!"

……

At the same time, the Extreme Martial Arts School, the Thunder God Martial Arts School, the Chinese Military, the American Military, the Soviet Russia... almost the same scenes were being played out in different places.

Wang Xiu, who was feeling both pain and happiness at home, did not know at this time that he had already entered the sight of major forces in the world.

……

In the hall of a quiet villa, Li Yao and Vinina were standing there quietly waiting.

"I don't know why the senior wants us here." Li Yao, nicknamed Vulture, whispered.

"I'm not sure, but I heard that the alliance's underground parliament was convened not long ago. There must be something important going on." Vinina, nicknamed the Poison Scorpion, also replied in a low voice.

Li Yao nodded, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Both of you."

An old man in a suit appeared upstairs and said indifferently, "The master is upstairs, waiting for you."

Li Yao and Vinina were both shocked, and then they walked up the stairs to the second floor. The old man in the suit said coldly, "Follow me."

Then he took the two of them directly to a quiet room. After opening the door, the old man in the suit walked away silently. Li Yao and Vinina took a deep breath before walking in.

The quiet room was empty.

Only the faint scent of sandalwood filled the quiet room. Yan Hai, whose hair had already turned gray, was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room. His long hair had reached his waist, and he looked like a piece of dead wood, without any life at all.

"Senior." Li Yao bowed.

"Councilor Yan." Vinina also bowed.

"Sit down." A deep voice came, and Yan Hai opened his eyes and looked at Li Yao and Vinina.

Yan Hai's eyes were cloudy, just like an old man who was about to die, without any aura of a strong man. However, Li Yao and Vinina did not dare to neglect him at all.

"Senior, do you have any instructions for summoning my husband and me here?" Li Yao asked respectfully after sitting down.

"Little vulture, you are still so smart." Yan Hai smiled, like a kind old grandfather.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Yan Hai said with a smile, "I called you two here this time because I really have something for you to do."

"This is a newly promoted junior war god from the Jiangnan base city of Huaxia country. He is suspected to have information about the remains of an ancient civilization that has never been discovered." Yan Hai said, handing over a photo.

"The remains of an ancient civilization that have never been discovered?" Li Yao widened his eyes and looked at the young man in the photo, with a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

Yan Hai acted as if he hadn't discovered anything, and slowly said to himself: "I want you to get information about the remains of civilization from him."

"When the time comes, you will certainly benefit from it."

Li Yao calmed down, thought carefully, and asked:

"Senior, are you here to use words or force?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Hai looked up at Li Yao and said slowly:
"Don't you understand the principle of courtesy before force?"

"I know what you are thinking, but I warn you, they are from the Extreme Martial Arts School. There are some things you can do and some things you can't do!"

"Now all the major forces are keeping an eye on that kid, be careful not to break any taboos."

Li Yao nodded solemnly after hearing this: "I understand, Senior. I will complete the task as soon as possible and will not let anyone else get there first."

"You kid." Yan Hai waved his hand, "Okay, go ahead."
