Chapter 82 Reinforcements Arrive

The soldiers were unimpressed by Wang Jiyun’s new orders; they merely tossed aside whatever was truly cumbersome to carry, such as large pieces of porcelain, but held fast to the cattle and sheep, unwilling to let go. All this time, they had subsisted on military rations, not tasting fresh meat for days, so how could they bear to part with their livestock now?

Wang Jiyun continued issuing commands to organize the troops, while waiting for the scouts he had sent out to return.

Mother Mu was trembling with anger. She hadn’t expected her son to be so infatuated, placing such importance on that girl, Raspberry. He seemed to have overheard something about a lack of evidence earlier, but in his eagerness to confirm it, he didn’t catch the details. Still, his eyes were intact—so why did he feel such pain?

A week later, Carl rented a new three-story building in Inglewood as the office for Xerox Corporation, and most of the relevant procedures were completed at the same time.

Xiaoyu hurriedly bid farewell to her master and rushed to where Xiaohe was located—a fringe planet, where the Fifth Legion of the Beastmen Alliance was conducting a thorough search, claiming that the planet had been infested by insectoids.

In Western countries, architects, doctors, and lawyers are professions held in high regard.

Lin Yong felt as if those planets were all real; he could even sense the heat emanating from the stars.

“Boboski~~~ Di Natale sends a diagonal pass into the penalty area, landing right at Boboski’s feet.” With his remarkable speed, Boboski had already charged into the box.

Wu Chi patted his chest, and Chai Rong’s face immediately brightened with joy. But in an instant, a trace of worry flickered across Chai Rong’s expression, fearing that Wu Chi might go too far and truly spark a conflict between the two nations, which would be difficult to resolve.

A sudden thought flashed through her mind. Lady Shu instinctively turned toward the icy frost behind Feng Xuanyin.

Qin Junli’s ambiguous and deceptive manner left Qi Wu Zhao uneasy, unable to make up his mind for half a day, uncertain whether to defend or attack, advance or retreat.

Steadying his thoughts, Yan Chutian took out all the universe pouches he had seized from the young talents of various factions in Central City. He searched through each pouch, seeking what he needed.

Listening to Wang Qiao’s earnest account, Yan Chutian’s curiosity only grew deeper. Before him stretched the vast expanse of the thunder marsh—he hadn’t imagined it would be so strange.

Deputy Commander Leng explained that the barrel was filled with brine, which could be used to sun-dry well salt. Digging a salt well depended on the conditions; it was necessary to excavate where brine was present.

Though the familiar village had been destroyed in the great battle, the familiars themselves showed no sign of dejection. Now they followed a prince, and their tribe’s glory was just around the corner. As the elders said, those dilapidated stone huts had long been an eyesore; now, with their destruction, they could rebuild better homes.

A street thug sporting a flamboyant hairstyle hadn’t even finished his threat before a black ice spike pierced through his chest.

Of course, Sean was not the detective-type intelligence agent. Most of his former assignments had clear objectives; he only needed to appear at the right place, at the right time, and use the right weapon.

Agent 001 lifted the red cloth, revealing an object in cosmic gray, resembling a bullet—sleek and bright, radiating technological sophistication. At first glance, it appeared seamless, with no trace of manufacturing.

Although Gu Hongshan was a step slower, he had already honed his own celestial palace to the point of being able to advance to the second layer. Naturally, he was no weakling.
