254: Chapter 254 No one understands hospitality better than me!

Area A, Freedom Fortress.

Inside the luxurious leader's office, Rata Hu fell to his knees with a thud on the thick carpet.

He was covered in blood, utterly disheveled, looking just like a stray dog.

"Leader Leader Te Li Pu! You must avenge us!"

"That demon named Red Wolf in Sector C is simply not human!"

"He... he killed tens of thousands of our people, and even our great Abyss God met a tragic end!"

Behind the desk,

Leader Leader Te Li Pu, sporting his signature blonde hair, was slowly sipping an iced cola.

He adjusted the red tie on his chest and gestured with his hands in mid-air, playing an invisible "accordion."

"Calm down, Rata, my old friend."

"In this wasteland world, no one knows war better than me—no one!"

Leader Te Li Pu curled his lip, an undisguised look of contempt flashing in his eyes. "You Squid People are just too weak."

"A mere yellow-skinned monkey from Sector C scared you into this state?"

"It's simply pathetic! Truly pathetic!"

Rata Hu's eyes turned red with anxiety. "Leader! That bastard has a fucking mecha! A mecha!"

"A single person melted two thousand of our tanks!"

"Enough!" Leader Te Li Pu interrupted him.

"I never believe the excuses of losers."

"This is absolutely Fake News that you made up!"

Leader Te Li Pu stood up and walked over to a massive holographic projection wall.

"Come, let me see the surveillance of your Sector 777."

"I want to see what kind of monkey could scare you, a Grand Commander of the Celestial Dragons, into wetting your pants."

Leader Te Li Pu snapped his fingers.

His adjutant, Hans, immediately tapped rapidly on the control console.

"Connecting to Sector 777 surveillance..."

"Feed hacked!"

Whoosh!

On the massive holographic screen, a high-definition bird's-eye view of Sector 777 instantly lit up.

Rata Hu stared intently at the screen, his eyes bloodshot and his body trembling uncontrollably.

However...

The moment the image became completely clear,

the entire leader's office fell into a deathly silence.

There wasn't even a trace of the grim, solemn atmosphere of war!

On the screen, the terrifying crimson tank was parked quietly on the ruins.

And below the tank, thousands of humans in red uniforms were enthusiastically surrounding their great "Abyss God."

Flames soared into the sky!

White smoke billowed!

"Group Two, hurry up! The giant squid's left leg has grown back again! Cut it, quick!"

"Master Ma! Sprinkle more chili! This Squid King seems to prefer strong flavors!"

"Big guy, open wide! Ah—"

The surveillance feed even zoomed in for a close-up.

Rata Hu clearly saw that their supreme Abyss deity was currently being violently carved up with a chainsaw.

What was even more ridiculous was that those humans were actually holding large iron basins, forcefully stuffing stir-fried squid meat into the Abyss God's mouth!

And their great deity...

was actually chewing while tears streamed down its face, making satisfied "gulping" swallowing sounds in its throat?!

"Pfft—"

Overcome with rage and shock, Rata Hu spat out a large mouthful of black blood.

At this moment, his worldview was completely blown to smithereens.

"No... No! That's impossible!!..."

"What are they doing? They are eating our god?!"

"Abyss God! How can you eat yourself?!"

Rata Hu's legs gave out, and he collapsed directly to the ground, clutching his head and letting out a pig-slaughtering shriek.

Beside him, Leader Te Li Pu was also dumbfounded.

The cup of cola in his hand froze in mid-air, his blonde eyebrows furrowing deeply.

He pointed at the Red Wolf Players on the screen, who were holding skewers with grease dripping from their mouths, a look of complete disbelief on his face.

"Rata, are you sure this isn't a joke?"

"This is the terrifying, demon-like enemy you spoke of?"

Leader Te Li Pu spread his hands, shaking his head exaggeratedly. "Aren't these just a bunch of reincarnated starving ghosts who are obsessed with food?!"

"Are they hosting a barbecue party?!"

Leader Te Li Pu turned his head to look at the collapsed Rata Hu on the ground, his gaze growing even more contemptuous.

"A bunch of monkeys who only know how to throw a barbecue party scared you into abandoning your armor and fleeing?"

"Rata, I seriously doubt it now!"

"That so-called Abyss deity you mentioned is nothing but a useless, flashy seafood counterfeit!"

"A bunch of foodies can slaughter it like a pig. What a total Loser!"

"No! That's not it!" Rata Hu kowtowed desperately.

"Leader Leader Te Li Pu, that Red Wolf is really bizarre!"

"You must deploy the Raptor fighter jets and blow them to smithereens immediately!"

"Quiet!"

Leader Te Li Pu adjusted his suit jacket and snorted coldly.

"Mere Dragon Kingdom monkeys! Nothing to fear!"

Leader Te Li Pu waved his hand.

Adjutant Hans immediately tapped on the console, switching the holographic screen to a radar scan.

"Look, Rata!"

Leader Te Li Pu pointed at a cluster of flashing red dots on the screen, raising his chin arrogantly.

"As it happens, before you arrived, a group of reckless Dragon Kingdom monkeys ended up lost near our Sector 1638."

Leader Te Li Pu patted Rata Hu's shoulder, flashing his signature fake smile. "My old friend, since you've been bullied, your big brother here will definitely help you!"

"I will send the invincible troops of the Great Eagle Country over to round them up like chickens."

"When the time comes, you can torture them however you want to vent your anger."

"No one knows hospitality better than me—no one!"

...

On the other side,

on the outskirts of Sector 1638.

In the ruins, Lin Zihao, Zhao Meng, and the others had successfully met up.

Under Lin Zihao's radar dispatch,

the Red Wolf Army scattered throughout the surrounding labyrinth was rapidly assembling toward this location.

At this moment,

Lin Zihao was leaning against a huge boulder, completely lacking any proper posture.

He stared resentfully at the guild channel in front of him, his eyes practically bleeding with envy.

The screen was flooded with high-definition food photos sent from Sector 777.

[Sizzling Teppanyaki Squid], [Fragrant Stir-fried Tentacles], [Infinitely Regenerating Abyss Lord]...

*Gulp.*

Lin Zihao swallowed hard, wanting to cry but having no tears.

"Damn it! Those beasts are eating until their mouths are dripping with grease, yet I, the Vice President, haven't even had a sip of the soup!"

Beside him, Zhao Meng also wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth and comforted him in a muffled voice:

"Brother Lin, calm down."

"Didn't Old Ma say that the giant squid is an infinitely regenerating perpetual motion machine?"

"Once we finish assembling, we'll blast through the walls of this crappy labyrinth and charge over. We'll definitely make it in time for some hot food!"

Lin Zihao stamped his feet in anxiety.

"How can I not be anxious?!"

"That's SSS-grade ingredients!"

"Those bastards' eyes are practically glowing green. If we go too late, let alone hot food, there won't even be any squid juice left!"

Just as Lin Zihao was so anxious that he was about to grab a sledgehammer and smash the walls himself,

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

on his motorcycle parked nearby, the legendary-grade radar suddenly emitted a piercing red alarm.

Lin Zihao's expression changed, and he snapped his head around to look at the radar screen.

On the edge of the screen, a dense mass of unidentified red signal dots was rapidly approaching their position!
