“DTU98 armed helicopter?”

Zhang Lisheng heard the exclamation of the tall girl beside him, so he asked while staring at the helicopters that were about to land. “You know this type of aircraft?”

“Of course, I do! I’m a military fan, and I love various fighters and tank models the most! What? It’s rare to see such a unique girl, right?” The Asian girl asked with a smile.

“Is the DTU98 armed helicopter special?” As though he did not hear a word of the girl’s answer, the young man asked again. When he was asking, the three helicopters similar in size to a small civil airliner had already landed outside the stadium of the ski resort in the distance.

An old man who was wearing a cap surrounded by a group of men walked out from the middle cabin of the aircraft in a steady pace.

“The prototype of the DTU98 armed helicopter is the ‘presidential helicopter,’ the only helicopter in the world that can carry intercontinental missiles produced by Lockheed Martin Corporation. It’s upgraded with the addition of the Atlantean light energy technology and the mysterious technology of Area 51…” The tall girl jabbered on familiarly and proudly.

Before she could finish her words, she saw the features of the old man who was coming down from the helicopter approaching them, so she could not help but choke on her words. With her eyes widened, she exclaimed immediately, “Oh my god! Isn’t that Secretary of State Fernand? It’s actually him! No wonder three DTU98 armed helicopters are being dispatched! Why is he here in the Winter Fantasy though? Wait, why is he walking towards us…”

“He’s not walking towards us,” Zhang Lisheng interrupted the girl in a blank expression, “but to me,”

Then, he lowered his head as a strange smile crept upon his face.

When he lifted his head again, a slightly old but magnetic voice had already resonated at his ears, “Dr. Lisheng Zhang, I’m the Secretary of State Fernand Bressi. Please forgive me for taking the liberty to visit you and interrupt your holiday.”

“Hello, Mr. Secretary of State,” Zhang Lisheng reached out and held the Secretary of State’s outstretched hand as he looked at the bald man who had taken off his cap, whom almost every federal citizen knew. He smiled politely at first before frowning, “May I ask, is there a reason why you come to me with so many people together?”

“I bring you the greetings and pleadings from Mr. President Rand of the United States, doctor,” The old man solemnly. “The country needs you.”

“Aha! This line again! ‘The country needs you’… Don’t you think she has needed me too many times now, Mr. Secretary of State?” The young man was taken aback before feeling exasperated, “Ever since I was still a student, I’ve been hosting the official laboratory for the federation. Then, I helped to plan a revenge attack on the barbaric aboriginal who attacked the human gathering place in the foreign world. After that, I even teamed up with the aliens to explore the Shrimp World No. 2… I’ve met the needs of the country many times now, both actively or passively, but I’m neither a public official of the federal government nor the imaginary superhero who saves the world in Marvel Comics. Don’t you think it’s a little exasperating being interrupted by the country’s need once again when I finally get the chance to spend time with my family and friends to spend a relaxing Christmas together?”

“Doctor, as the Secretary of State of the United States of America, I fully understand and hold deep gratitude for your great contribution to this country. I’m really sorry and feel regrettable for disturbing your reunion with your family and friends, but I’m sure you know about the joint attack the Shrimp World No. 1 god troops launched with the Karlado people on Noah World’s spatial door. The federation is not capable of fighting two powerful foreign world civilizations, so the United States desperately needs the Wizard Li people to fulfill the covenant to deal with military threats and carry out a retaliatory raid on the Karlado’s military forces in Africa. There’s no other suitable person to pass on this request to the Wizard Li and supervise them in the execution except for you…”

“You want me to supervise the Wizard Li people in fulfilling the agreement of the offensive and defensive alliance and wage war on the Karlado?” When the Wizard Li god heard the Secretary of State’s words, his heart shouted in glee, but he frowned even more intensely on the surface. Like he was extremely unhappy, he interrupted Fernand’s words, “Oh, this is quite a creative idea, but Mr. Secretary of State, I’m just a biologist, not a warmonger. Besides, we all know about the background of the contract signed between the federal government and the Wizard Li headman…”

“Doctor, no matter what kind of background it was when the agreement was signed, a contract is a contract, and a contract is made to be carried out. Didn’t you say that our allies look primitive and cruel, but are actually people who will keep their promises?” Without waiting for Zhang Lisheng to reject him entirely, Fernand also interrupted him without warning and asked him back.

The young man was taken aback and became speechless for a long time, but his expression became increasingly annoyed. After more than ten seconds, he finally said coldly, “Secretary Fernand, you’re confusing the term ‘people of the nation’ and ‘nation’ now. The natives in the Wizard Li tribe keep their promises, but it doesn’t mean that the entire Wizard Li will keep its promise. Of course, if you insist on making the impossible possible, I have nothing to say, but I won’t ask the Wizard Li to send troops to set foot on Earth and cross the Pacific Ocean to take the initiative to attack the steam civilization’s army. Oh yeah, doesn’t Wizard Li have a foreign affairs agency in the Noah World? Wouldn’t it be easier for them to notify Wizard Li about the federal government’s request?”

“Doctor, actually, I also know very well that it’s difficult for the Wizard Li people to fulfill their allies’ responsibilities and take the initiative to attack the Karlado,” Fernand changed his aggressive attitude all of a sudden. After a long moment of silence, he sighed and said in a frank manner, “If we rely on the Wizard Li ambassador to pass on this request to the tribal headman, the possibility of approval would be next to nothing. The country needs you, or should I say, the human race needs you, sir.”

“The country needs me? The human race needs me?” Zhang Lisheng also fell into a moment of silence under the change of attitude of the Secretary of State before asking in confusion, “It’s only a one-time retaliatory attack on the Karlado anyway. Is it really that important, Secretary Fernand?”

Fernand replied without hesitation, “The attack on the world’s gate connecting Noah to the Earth can be seen as the beginning of the direct attack by the invaders of the foreign world on the United States’ last territory. The Noah World in the US and the Kunlun World in China are the last ‘Eden’ and hope for the entire human race on Earth. If we can’t have a firm counterattack in the shortest possible time, the consequences are likely to become too dreadful to contemplate.”

“The same problem has become so serious from the mouths of you politicians,” Zhang Lisheng looked at the earnest look of the federal Secretary of State and took a deep breath. With his hand pointing to the surrounding, he said, “The new New York C is only several hundred kilometers away from the New Washington A, so everyone must have known about the foreign world’s people’s attack on Noah’s spatial gate but look, aren’t they waiting to watch the ice hockey game too?”

The young man’s tone suddenly became harsh, but a relaxed smile appeared on Fernand’s face instead, “Doctor, as the brain of the federation, of course, the cabinet will ponder the problem in a more further manner compared to other ordinary people. The decision to request you to communicate with the Wizard Li people this time was made by the ‘White House Special Meeting.’ President Rand has even prepared a second Medal of Honor for you already. Of course, such rewards are insignificant compared to your contribution to the nation, but since you do not lack anything already in your life, that’s the only thing we can do for you, isn’t it?”

After listening to the disguised compliment of the Secretary of State, Zhang Lisheng burst into a chuckle and fell into deep contemplation. A few seconds later, he opened his mouth and said, “I can go to the Shrimp World No. 2 to try to get the Wizard Li people to fulfill the covenant, but you must agree on two conditions.”

“Please go ahead, doctor.”

“First, the federal government must do an excellent job of communicating with Atlantis. When the Wizard Li army appears on Earth, they must not be troubled by the alien fleet. We must know that the soldiers of a mythical civilization will lose control more easily when it comes to the provocation of faith, and this may cause irreversible results…” Zhang Lisheng frowned in a worried manner and said very slowly.

“Please rest assured, doctor. The federation will certainly communicate with Atlantis about this.” The question raised by the young man was reasonable, so Fernand nodded just after a moment of hesitation and said, “Please state your second condition. ”

“Second, you must give my siblings and my new friends a few tickets for the ice hockey game between New York Lightning Panthers and the Chicago Evil Red Dragon,” Zhang Lisheng pointed at the LCD billboards constantly flashing the publicity of the game hung above the massive entrance of the stadium in the distance and said.

Fernand was startled before looking in the direction of the young man’s finger. He looked at the billboard and burst into a chuckle before nodding his head. “Alright, doctor. I promise that they’ll get the best seats!”

“Then we have a deal, Sir Fernand,” Zhang Lisheng reached out and shook hands with the federal Secretary of State. “But I’ll be frank first, don’t have too much hope in this matter. Well then, when do you need me to depart?”

“This is an urgent issue, so it’s better if you can depart right away, doctor. Is that okay with you?”

“Of course, please wait a moment.” The young man nodded and turned to walk up to Riley who was not far away, before saying to the girl. “Randy is not reliable, so I can only ask you to help pass a message to mom, Riley. You also heard what Secretary of State Fernand said just now. The matter is urgent…”

“Will you go on the battlefield, Lisheng?” Riley stared straight at the young man’s dark eyes in a slight daze and interrupted him in a trembling voice.

“Maybe, but I’d definitely be heavily surrounded by soldiers, so you don’t have to worry. Help me bid farewell to mom and say that to grandpa and grandma too,” Zhang Lisheng shrugged with a smile. “Bye, my dear sister!”

While he was about to turn and leave, the girl suddenly hugged him and pecked his lips.

“Goodbye, my dear brother…” Riley released the stiff young man and said with a trembling voice, “Don’t talk and don’t ask any question! I just don’t want to leave any regret.”

Zhang Lisheng opened his mouth but had nothing to say, so he only returned silently to Fernand. “Let’s go, sir.”
