Originally, the noisy hall suddenly fell silent. Everyone turned to look, and saw a thin middle-aged man in a black suit. His eyes looked like lightning, and there was a faint smile on his lips. He looked around and shouted, “Luo Feng, Inspector Luo, where are you? I have always wanted to meet Inspector Luo, what kind of young hero is he!”
“Dad.” Lei Yufeng walked over to his father’s side.
This person was—
He was Lei Meng, the inspector of the Thunder Dojo in Jiangnan Base City. Being able to serve as an inspector of a major base city, Lei Meng was also a well-known figure among high-level War Gods. In terms of strength, he was slightly stronger than Vulture Li Yao. Of course, he was a little weaker than Phantom Carter Lan.
Phantom Carter Lan had physical strength at the peak of a high-level War God, and also possessed spiritual telepathy.
Lei Meng, on the other hand, relied purely on peak physical strength.
“Lei Meng is here, things are getting interesting.”
“I wonder how things will develop.”
The big shots in the hall were all watching with interest, glancing at Lei Meng and then at Luo Feng.
In the world, everyone knew that the Thunder Dojo and the Extreme Dojo had always been in direct opposition, constantly competing. Others did not dare to disrupt the Extreme Dojo’s events, but the Thunder Dojo people dared. The competition between Hong and Thunder God’s factions was even tacitly allowed.
……
Luo Feng was standing in front of the representative of the Hua Shan special military department in China. Hearing Lei Meng’s words, he did not even look over. Instead, he smiled and said to the representative, “Hello, I am Luo Feng. I have long heard of Councillor Jia’s reputation and have always admired him. I am very glad to meet Councillor Jia’s disciple.”
“Jiang Long is also very happy to meet someone as talented as Inspector Luo.” Jiang Long’s impression of Luo Feng immediately improved greatly.
Just now, Lei Meng’s sudden interruption made him very unhappy.
Because Luo Feng was about to speak with him, and then Lei Meng suddenly appeared. If Luo Feng turned to talk to Lei Meng and ignored him, it would be very embarrassing for him.
But now Luo Feng treated Lei Meng as if he did not exist and continued speaking with him. Jiang Long naturally felt very satisfied, while Lei Meng on the other side felt unhappy.
“Inspector, this Jiang Group Leader is Councillor Jia’s most outstanding disciple.” President Zhou Zhengyong quickly introduced with a smile. “He is already a high-level War God and one of the top experts in the Hua Shan special department.”
“Compared to Inspector Luo, I still fall short.” Jiang Long smiled.
“In terms of experience, Group Leader Jiang is far more experienced than me.” Luo Feng also smiled.
This polite exchange of compliments continued smoothly between them.
“Excuse me for a moment.” Luo Feng said.
“Please, Inspector Luo.” Jiang Long smiled. “We can continue later.”
After finishing his conversation with Jiang Long of the Hua Shan special military department, Luo Feng then brought Xu Xin and walked with a smile toward Lei Meng.
“Inspector Luo, my father came especially to congratulate you, and he came here happily wanting to talk with you. But you acted as if you did not see him at all.” Lei Yufeng frowned and said with some dissatisfaction. “This is really…”
“Yufeng.”
Lei Meng raised his hand, stopping his son from continuing.
Seeing this, Luo Feng sneered inwardly. If Lei Meng really wanted to stop his son, he would have done so earlier. When he first received the email from the global headquarters of the dojo regarding the responsibilities of an inspector, it clearly stated that one must maintain the reputation of the Extreme Dojo, especially in competition with the Thunder Dojo, and must strive to suppress the opponent.
Competition with the Thunder Dojo had become a tradition. Of course, Luo Feng could not be weak.
“I am really sorry. I was speaking with Mr. Jiang Long just now. Inspector Lei, you suddenly arrived. I cannot just abandon Mr. Jiang and ignore him. You understand, right?” Luo Feng said with a smile.
Lei Meng raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
“I am very happy that Inspector Lei came.” Luo Feng continued with a full smile. “We can talk more later.” Then he looked at President Zhou Zhengyong.
Zhou Zhengyong nodded and walked onto the stage.
……
On the stage.
Zhou Zhengyong looked at the important figures below and smiled. “On September 1st, our Jiangnan Base City Extreme Dojo welcomes its new inspector. Who is he?”
“He defeated Phantom Carter Lan, Giant Bear Keita, Blood Shadow Ivan, and Vulture Li Yao, four high-level War Gods, alone.” These words made Lei Meng’s expression turn unpleasant, because although he was strong, he was still weaker than Phantom Carter Lan.
Luo Feng defeating all four meant that if he fought Lei Meng one-on-one, Lei Meng would lose.
“Three of those four even had Black God Sets, yet they still lost. He was also rated ‘Invincible War God’ by the highest decision-makers of the Extreme Dojo. And he is still very young.”
“No need for me to say more, everyone already knows who he is!”
“Let us welcome him!”
“New inspector of Jiangnan Base City Extreme Dojo!”
“Invincible War God!”
“Luo Feng!!!”
Zhou Zhengyong’s voice echoed throughout the hall, followed by enthusiastic applause from the guests. Music also started playing at the right moment. Under the music, Luo Feng said a few words to Xu Xin, then walked alone onto the stage with a smile.
Zhou Zhengyong stepped down, and Luo Feng stepped up.
On the stage, Luo Feng looked at the crowd below. When his gaze passed over Lei Meng, his expression did not change at all, still smiling.
“Everyone.”
Luo Feng said, “Jiangnan Base City is my hometown. I am very honoured to become the inspector of the Extreme Dojo here after growing up. I will not say much else, but I will fulfil all responsibilities of an inspector and will never tarnish the reputation of the Extreme Dojo.”
This immediately drew a wave of applause, especially from the Extreme Dojo side.
Lei Meng and the others remained calm.
“China is my homeland. If the country is in danger, I will not stand aside. Moreover, the war between humans and monsters does not allow me to retreat. I have already accepted General Li Dawei’s invitation.” Luo Feng looked at Li Dawei below, who nodded with a smile.
“Alright, that is all. Let everyone enjoy the night. President Zhou, prepare the banquet.”
……
The guests dined together. In truth, eating was secondary, talking was the real purpose. People of their status rarely had the chance to meet like this.
After the banquet, they ate fruit and chatted in small groups.
Soft music filled the hall, creating a relaxed atmosphere.
Luo Feng was chatting with Jiang Long and Liu Dekai when suddenly—
“What!” A shout echoed through the hall, making everyone stop and look over in confusion. The person who shouted was East South Military District Commander, Army General Li Dawei. He was on the phone.
“I will return immediately!”
Li Dawei’s expression turned serious as he hung up.
“Commander Li, what happened?” Base City Mayor Ye Zhong quickly walked over.
“Something serious. Sea monster groups have engaged our front line in the East South Military District.” Li Dawei said solemnly.
At this, the entire hall erupted in shock.
Sea monster groups attacking inland?
“What level?” the mayor asked immediately.
“First-level beast tide,” Li Dawei replied.
Everyone in the hall was stunned. Even Luo Feng was shocked. He knew that the beast tide that once killed War God Lu Gang was only a third-level rat tide. Above that were second-level and first-level beast tides, and even the legendary disaster-level beast tide.
Disaster-level events were extremely rare on Earth. They meant king-level monsters were involved, usually with catastrophic consequences.
A first-level beast tide already meant an endless wave of monsters.
“I must return immediately. I also hope that all War Gods here, those who are able, can assist when needed.” Li Dawei looked at everyone.
“At a time like this, how can we retreat?” Lei Meng said loudly, deliberately glancing at Luo Feng.
“Commander Li, we will leave immediately.” Luo Feng said even more decisively.
At this moment, Lei Meng and Luo Feng were in direct competition. With a first-level beast tide, how could they retreat? Doing so would disgrace their respective Dojos.
“Luo Feng, be careful.” Xu Xin hurried over.
“Don’t worry.” Luo Feng smiled and pinched her nose.
Soon after, Luo Feng boarded his intelligent combat aircraft. Lei Meng also boarded his flying saucer-like aircraft, and other War Gods took off as well, heading rapidly toward the southeast.
……
Inside Li Dawei’s flying saucer aircraft.
Li Dawei and a young man were seated.
“Commander, will this move be guessed by someone?” the young man asked with a smile.
Li Dawei said seriously, “So what if they guess? The sea monsters have been gathering continuously. The number of water monsters in the Huangpu River alone is already alarming. If we do not strike now, in a month or two they will attack anyway. We cannot just wait for them to strike first. It is better to start the battle early.”
“An early battle means the sea monsters are not fully prepared.”
“And this banquet allowed us to gather many War Gods,” Li Dawei said with a smile. “Especially Luo Feng and Lei Meng. One is an Invincible War God, the other has the Black God Set. With military support, their effectiveness will not be less than two hundred thousand troops.”
The young man nodded.
“Who do you think will kill more lord-level sea monsters, Luo Feng or Lei Meng?” Li Dawei smiled.
