"Hmm? No, I feel my wound is warm. It used to hurt a little, but now it seems to be completely gone."
While still savoring the memory, Wei Long suddenly felt as if the wound in his abdomen had been healed, and he felt warm all over, as if he were in heaven.
"Xiao Hao, what's the name of this cocktail you made? It's really delicious, and my injury seems to have healed too?"
Seeing this, Wei Long asked Zhang Hao, who was smiling to the side.
"Hmm... I'll call it Golden Dawn. I learned it from watching someone else's video. I just didn't expect it to have a healing effect. Maybe it's related to the fact that I escaped from the Tower of Babel."
Rometheus: You're so great, so high and mighty. I haven't even invented a healing wine myself, is it really meaningful for you to keep blaming me?
"Golden Dawn? What a nice name, and it tastes great too. Thank you, Xiao Hao, I feel my strength returning! Roy, get me a checkup, I really feel like my injuries are healed."
After patting Zhang Hao's head, Wei Long also pulled away Roy, who still wanted to stay there and watch the excitement.
"Little Hao Hao, I want to drink too."
Just as Zhang Hao was about to go over and check on Wei Long's situation, Mai Xiaowen stopped him, and Luna also came over.
Uluru, who had just been wriggling on the ground, also turned around after smelling the aroma.
"Waaaah, Xiao Hao, make me a drink too. Wei Long doesn't sell it, it's just sitting there making me drool."
Seeing that everyone was interested in the drinks he made, Zhang Hao decided to satisfy them.
"Come on, Xiaowen, your [Sky Mirror] is ready. Now, Luna, your [Sunset Glow] is ready."
Watching the two ladies pick up their artfully crafted glasses and begin to savor them, Uluru swallowed hard and said to Zhang Hao:
"Xiao Hao, I'm not picky about flavors, just give me a lot, hehehe."
Hearing Uluru's words, Deep Blue and Red Wolf, who were standing nearby, also came over and nodded.
"Me too."
"Okay, okay, here comes Uncle Deep Blue, your [Northern Moscow], Uncle Red Wolf, [Miami Waves], Uncle Uluru, yours, uh."
Looking at the "bucket" of liquor prepared for Uluru, even the naming genius Zhang Hao was momentarily speechless.
"Let's call it 'Barrel Uluru'."
Luna, who was standing to the side, looked at the "bucket" of wine and laughed.
"Oh, never mind, I just want to drink what Xiao Hao makes. Come on, let me have a taste."
Once Uluru saw that the drink was ready, he couldn't wait to take the large glass of wine and start drinking it straight away, chugging it down in one go.
"Ah! That's awesome! Hahaha, Xiao Hao, your cooking skills are truly unbeatable!"
Seeing that everyone was satisfied with his skills, Zhang Hao felt gratified.
"These wines might have special effects, you can find out for yourselves. Since we've finished them all, why don't we go and see how Brother Weilong is doing?"
After enjoying the perfect wine, everyone headed to Roy's medical room.
"Huh? I feel my strength has increased."
At that moment, Deep Blue's voice came over, and he lifted the entire dining table with one hand, even though it contained food and Uluru's treasure chest.
"Me too, I feel my hearing is more acute than before."
Mai Xiaowen also said with surprise.
"Haha, brothers, my injuries are all healed, even the old bruises are gone now, I can be a pilot again!"
Just as everyone was observing their own changes, Wei Long's excited voice came over. Upon seeing Zhang Hao, he immediately picked him up and spun him around.
"Haha, thank you so much, Xiao Hao! I thought I was destined to never become a pilot. You're my savior!"
When the bee doctor who came out from behind saw that everyone had drunk the drinks Zhang Hao had mixed, he quickly ran up to Zhang Hao.
"Xiao Hao, that's not fair of you! Quick, quick, go mix me a drink too."
Zhang Hao immediately said he was tired. Just as Roy was about to turn into a maggot and writhe on the ground like Uluru, he was taken away by Red Wolf and Deep Blue.
"No!!!! You'll remember this! I'll remember you all! My hatred is eternal!!! You just wait!"
Chapter 29 The Generous Said
The camera shifts to Dam Zero in Asara. On a typical day, our prisoner is sitting miserably in his office processing documents, his terrifying hands, which have killed countless rats, now staring blankly at a pen and paper.
Saeed: Damn it, they're all uneducated and can't even do this, so why should I, the best fighter, have to bear this responsibility? Who says being good at fighting means being smart? Damn it.
Looking at the pile of documents next to me, which resembled a small mountain, and the soldiers at the door carrying stacks of them inside.
Old Sai knew that if he continued like this, he might not live to see Asara's liberation, and would already be going to see his father.
Our honest guy, Lao Sai, immediately slammed his fist on the table and stood up. He thought, "Either I explode in silence or I perish in silence." He thought about how he was living this miserable life every day, while his neighbor, Reese, could live a life of debauchery and party every day. Wasn't this just bullying the honest guy?
"I'm tired today. Have that shieldman handle these. You guys look for toys that kids like and get some cola ready, okay? I'm going to ask someone to come and relax with me."
Saeed decided to take a break. During his last chat with Zhang Hao, Zhang Hao gave Saeed a brief introduction to Chinese culture. Saeed also decided to follow suit and cultivate his own team, delegating power to others.
Although Zhang Hao was talking eloquently, it couldn't hide the fact that our Lao Sai was uncultured. After listening for a long time, Said understood that he was asking his trusted subordinates to do his work, and that he should praise them a few times when he had nothing to do, and then add a line about Asara.
So, Sayed summoned everyone in the Zero Dam who had a position and could read. Once everyone was there, Sayed was astonished. He couldn't believe that such a large dam only had six people who met the requirements.
"Well, I, Sayed, in my capacity as the commander of Dam Zero, am informing you that from today onwards, you are all members of the Dam Zero office. You will be responsible for the documents I handle regularly, understand?"
Saying this, Said blushed a little behind the mask. He felt that what he was doing was a bit shameless. He was doing the work that was supposed to be his, and then making up an excuse.
But to Sayyid's surprise, after hearing that he had assigned them to office work, these people became incredibly enthusiastic, promising him:
"Don't worry, Commander Said, we will definitely not let you down. We have seen how hard you work every day to help everyone, and we are honored to be able to share your burden!"
Asara's shield bearers immediately stood at attention and spoke to Said about things he usually overlooked.
"Me? But I..."
Said looked at the enthusiastic group of people in front of him, and his unchanging expression was momentarily taken aback. He had always thought that since he was the strongest here, he should naturally do these things himself. He never expected that in their eyes he was such a responsible and capable person.
"Don't worry, Commander Sayed. You can rest today. Trust us. Although we may not be very educated, we can handle these simple documents for you without any problem."
Said felt that his efforts had been recognized by everyone, and he quickly raised his head to prevent the tears in his eyes from falling. This was probably what Xiao Hao meant by "He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world."
Hmph, Reis and Hamk, you two tyrants who oppress the people of Asara, what can you do against me!
╰( ̄ω ̄o)
"Alright, then thank you for your hard work, for Asara's future!"
After Zhang Hao encouraged his subordinates as instructed, the men indeed started working with boundless energy, their enthusiasm putting Sayyid to shame.
"Someone, see if there's anything fun to do lately. Prepare all the good food and fun activities for me; I need to entertain our distinguished guest."
Having put down the burden on his shoulders, Sayed found a sofa to lie down on and took out his phone to call Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao, who was still in class, suddenly heard his phone ring. He took it out and saw that Sayid wanted to see him. He quickly greeted Uluru and answered the phone.
"Hey, Uncle Said, what's up?"
"Oh, Xiao Hao, have you been busy lately? Why don't you come and play at my Zero Dam for a few days? I found some toys and snacks for you."
On the other end of the phone, Said was fiddling with a model of an infantry fighting vehicle on the table. It was a model that a soldier had given to Said when he delivered materials to Reis last time, but Said had been too busy to bring it over.
"Okay, but wait until noon to ask Uncle Shenlan if he agrees. I'll have the weekend to rest soon too."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for your news."
After hanging up the phone, Sayed lay on the sofa waiting for Zhang Hao's message. As he waited, he heard snoring coming from the sofa.
Suddenly, a head popped out of the office. Asara, the shieldbearer, looked at Said, who was lying unconscious on the sofa, clenched his fist, and secretly vowed to work harder to complete the mission so that Commander Said wouldn't be so tired.
Meanwhile, at lunchtime, Zhang Hao mentioned to everyone that he wanted to visit Said at Zero Dam over the weekend, but unfortunately, it was unanimously rejected by everyone except Roy.
Zhang Hao: ??? Why won't you let me go play?
“Xiao Hao, don’t think that Dam Zero is safe. Besides, you just met with Said. How can you trust him so much? You know, everyone who becomes a leader in Asara is cunning. I’m worried you’ve been deceived.”
Shen Lan and the others all advised Zhang Hao.
Saeed: What? Brain? Me?
“Oh, Uncle Shenlan, you don’t understand him. I’ve talked to him for a long time, and I know he’s a good person who wholeheartedly wants to liberate the Asara region. Otherwise, how could Xiaowen and I have come back from there safely last time?”
Seeing that Zhang Hao was still defending Said, everyone except Roy hardened their fists. Their carefully nurtured little cabbage had been snatched away by a native of Asara. What difference was there between him and the blond guy?
"Hey! I don't think there's any problem. Xiao Hao is right, isn't he? Look, he came back safe and sound last time, didn't he? If you're worried about him this time, I'll just have to go with Xiao Hao!"
Roy, who was watching the show from the sidelines, was not one to miss out on trouble. He had been getting a bit bored in the Special Operations Department lately, and seeing that there seemed to be a chance to go out and have some fun, he naturally couldn't let this opportunity pass him by.
Thus, he successfully diverted everyone's anger towards Saeed onto himself.
After another 10 minutes of ideological education, when everyone returned to Zhang Hao's side, only Roy, who was squatting on the ground and sighing silently, was left.
"But I really want to go have fun! Can we just go this weekend? If you're worried about me, I'll send two people to protect me, please!"
Seeing that everyone disagreed, Zhang Hao had no choice but to use his last resort: acting cute. If that didn't work either, he would have to accept it and refuse Said's invitation.
But seeing Zhang Hao like this, everyone was at a loss. Shen Lan took a deep breath and was about to harden her heart to refuse when Mai Xiaowen, Luna and Wei Long spoke first.
"Sigh, I just can't do anything with you, Deep Blue. Let me (the three of us) go with Xiao Hao this time!"
Seeing the longing look in Zhang Hao's eyes, Shen Lan had no choice but to give up and agree to take Zhang Hao out for two days this weekend.
"Hey! Wait a minute, wasn't this my idea? Why did they kick me out again? I want to go play too!"
Roy, who had been silently moaning to the side, suddenly jumped out, but was quickly pushed back down by Deep Blue.
"The Special Operations Department can't be without a doctor. You'd better stay here and be on standby until Zoya returns!"
Seeing the provocative looks from the other three, Roy couldn't hold back any longer.
"No!!!! You're bullying honest people! I'm not playing with you anymore, waaaaaah! (;???Д??`)"
Chapter 30 Open the door if you dare!
After getting everyone's consent, Zhang Hao called Said.
"Hey! Xiao Hao, what did you say over there?"
"Of course it's okay, Uncle Said! I'll come to your place for a couple of days this weekend, but they're worried about me, so three other people are coming with me this time!"
"No problem, it doesn't matter how many of you come. Don't let Zero Dam's poor appearance fool you, we can still accommodate you without any problem."
On the other side, Said patted his chest and assured him that he didn't care how many people came. It was just a matter of cooking more food. He could let them all come for team building, as long as Xiao Hao was happy. Of course, it would be best if they could stay.
"Um, we'll be having four distinguished guests coming to visit us the day after tomorrow. Whoever is efficient, please arrange the itinerary for the other three adults. I'll personally take care of the younger one, understand?"
Meanwhile, Mai Xiaowen was in Zhang Hao's room packing his clothes and other necessities for his trip, while Zhang Hao was playing games beside her.
"Xiaowen, we're only going to have fun for two days, is it really necessary to pick up so much stuff?"
Seeing Mai Xiaowen pack a full level 5 backpack, Zhang Hao felt ashamed. This was only for two days. If he went to play for a week, he would probably need two level 6 backpacks.
"What do you know, you little brat? What if you get sweaty from running around there and don't have any clothes to change into, and you catch a cold? Besides, it's not like here. The environment there is terrible, and there are lots of bugs at night. Look, I'm using mosquito repellent spray in the morning and at night, and I'm using sunscreen when you go out to play in the morning. Let me tell you, you can't get so tanned. You won't be cute if you get all dark!"
Zhang Hao was speechless as he looked at Mai Xiaowen, who was introducing the products to him. He was a grown man who had never used sunscreen in both his lives, and why did she bring her spare pillow? Doesn't it take up space?
"Don't worry, you don't need to carry it anyway, just leave it to your Brother Weilong."
After zipping up the backpack, Mai Xiaowen prepared to take it to Weilong.
Wei Long: You're awesome, you're so high and mighty.
Mai Xiaowen: This is for Xiao Hao Hao.
Weilong: Mission accomplished, please rest assured, Party.
Meanwhile, in Wei Long's room, he had also packed a large bag.
"One set of clothes and pants is enough. This time, bring some more magnetic bombs. If anyone dares to endanger Xiao Hao, I'll just use a jetpack to cover them with bombs! Oops, I packed too much, it's a bit heavy. Hmm, should I exchange it for some of the grenades Terry gave me?"
Just as Wei Long was still pondering and struggling with his decision, his door was kicked open with a "bang." Mai Xiaowen walked in carrying a level 5 bag, and was stunned to see that Wei Long had also filled a level 4 bag to the brim.
"What's this?" ×2
"This is Hao Hao's luggage. He couldn't carry it, so I brought it to you."
"Emm...my backpack is full of bombs, how about I stuff some into your bag?"
As a result, Wei Long received a disdainful look from Mai Xiaowen.
"Why are you carrying so many bombs? We're supposed to be protecting Xiao Hao, not blowing up the dam, understand?"
