Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 612 Returning to the Doro World
Grizzly said calmly:
"It was a conflict involving national interests... because everything was done in secret, neither country publicized it!
"Basically, a citizen of our country was studying in F country and achieved great success. He was hailed as a genius, and everyone knew that his future achievements in his field were limitless!
"So, F country planned to keep him there and offered him excellent treatment. They even told him that if he changed his nationality to F country, they would give him a manor!
"That young man was very good and was not tempted. However, he was very clear about his abilities. He knew that if he refused, the best outcome would be being placed under house arrest by F country, or even being killed.
"After all, he was within the borders of F country. If the state apparatus wanted someone to die in an accident, it would be extremely easy!
"So, he pretended to be very happy and said that he liked F country very much, and that even if they didn't ask, he would apply to stay!
"Moreover, he said that he liked a cluster of manors located by a lake, and that if he could have a manor there, he would die without regret!
"That guy acted very realistically. I'm afraid even real actors were not as good as him. So, those who were sent to recruit him believed him.
"The main reason was that no one could have imagined that this guy, who had always acted like a bookworm, only studying and not liking to talk to others, and who didn't have any friends here, would actually lie, and lie so naturally!
"So, the people of F country relaxed their vigilance and began to prepare everything they had promised him! Including the lakeside manor he said he liked!
"At the same time, the monitoring of him by the people of F country also slackened, and as a result, he found an opportunity to contact our country's embassy, requesting help to return home!
"Of course, the country attached great importance to this kind of thing, but given his identity, it would definitely not be possible to return home through normal channels.
"Although we could issue diplomatic notes, or even have embassy personnel escort him back home, the higher-ups were worried that if the people of F country realized what was happening, they would be driven to desperate measures and kill him directly.
"So, we received orders to secretly take him out with the cooperation of the embassy personnel. Just as we were about to leave the border of F country, the people of F country found out about this and sent out special forces.
"Their orders were to try to capture him alive and take him back. If they couldn't, then kill him, as well as us special forces who were escorting him.
"It was at that time that I saw him. Although we all had camouflage paint on our faces, I recognized him as soon as I saw his figure, and he also recognized me.
"Neither of us had expected that the day we became enemies would come so quickly! However, we are soldiers and cannot have any personal feelings. The mission of the country is our mission!
"In the end, we won and brought that person back smoothly. It was also in this battle that I shot him in the brow, and before he died, he also shot me!"
As he spoke, Grizzly pulled open his combat uniform, revealing a circular scar on the left side of his chest:
"I was very lucky. That bullet just passed through my ribs and grazed my heart, piercing through my body. The doctor said that if it had been two millimeters off, I would not have been saved!"
Saying that, Grizzly pulled up his clothes and looked at Li Chenzhou, saying:
"I know more about this kind of thing than you do. Don't talk about two worlds, even between countries, there can be no true friendship, only eternal interests!
"So, you can rest assured that no matter how well I get along with the people here, I will remember where I came from! When facing the Devourers, I may be willing to help them block bullets, but if they really have ideas about our world, I will pour all the bullets on their heads!"
Li Chenzhou looked at Grizzly without saying anything, just patted him on the shoulder, sighed, and handed two evolution elixirs that he had already exchanged to Grizzly:
"Come on, let's raise your level first, and then I'll take you to see Hu Tao and the others first. You'll stay here and familiarize yourself with the situation. I'll go back first to make sure that our world won't increase in level because of your level increase!"
"Two? Are you sure I'm that unlucky?"
Grizzly said, looking at the two evolution elixirs in his hand.
"No! I want you to increase by two levels!"
Li Chenzhou said:
"If it's just one level, what if there are already level four ability users during this time? So, to be sure, it's directly two levels! Anyway, level five is the highest limit, as long as you don't break through level five, the Devourers won't notice! So, level four and level five are no different!"
"Okay!"
Grizzly didn't argue and directly used two evolution elixirs. His luck was indeed quite good. He actually succeeded in two consecutive attempts, truly entering the realm of a level five ability user!
Li Chenzhou was not in a hurry to ask about Grizzly's skills, but directly took Grizzly out of the valley. Along the way, Grizzly eliminated the traces of the two walking. Outside the mountain, the ground was relatively solid and would not leave traces, so Li Chenzhou exchanged for a war chariot and sped towards the base!
This time, Li Chenzhou didn't actually leave for long. Frankly speaking, it was just a few days wasted on the road. The time he stayed at the manor, plus the fight with Lin Qiang, was less than four hours.
Therefore, from beginning to end, Li Chenzhou was away from the Doro world for only a week!
However, a scholar who has been away for three days must be looked at with new eyes, let alone a week?
When Li Chenzhou returned to the War Fortress, he found that the War Fortress had been completely covered by Hu Tao and the others with various disguises. If you were close, it might be a bit obvious, but if it was a Devourer's prison fighter, it would definitely not be able to detect it.
Moreover, although he hadn't asked yet, Li Chenzhou was sure that the material covering the War Fortress must be special, at least it wouldn't be penetrated by things like far-infrared!
"This... they really don't mind the effort, actually covering the entire War Fortress? How big of a project is this?"
Grizzly had already seen the War Fortress, and now he was standing in front of the War Fortress in the Doro world, so he could see that this was the disguised form of the War Fortress, and couldn't help but ask in amazement.
"They have been living in the shadow of the Devourers, and they have a natural fear of the Devourers. In order to hide, they are not afraid of any trouble. All they want is the safest possible security!"
Li Chenzhou sighed and said:
"People who have not lived under the capture of the Devourers since childhood probably find it difficult to understand their feelings. You can imagine, if... our world continues to be in a state of doomsday, with zombies rampant everywhere, I'm afraid you would be as cautious as them!"
"I will never let our world become like that!"
Grizzly's mouth curled into a cold smile:
"We will be here, completely wipe out the Devourers, and then go back and restore our world to its former state!"
After saying that, Grizzly stepped on the accelerator, and the war chariot drove towards the War Fortress...
