"Yeah, that's right. Yes, it is."
Upon seeing George suddenly appear, two ordinary Naansen guards were so startled that they swallowed their saliva, then picked up the communication device.
It's terrible, it's terrible. The person in front of me is really terrifying.
Though this person smiles warmly and appears very amiable, they still can't help but tremble slightly in their body when they recall everything they just saw.
After reporting in a disjointed manner, they tried their best to calm down their emotions and said to George:
"We have reported the events here and your request to Elia, who will promptly report to the King, and then give you a response."
"Then just wait for a while."
George smiled and nodded, not taking it seriously.
The strongest few otherworldly individuals in the Kingdom of Naansen are usually the King of Naansen and the Nine Major Naansen Guards.
Within the royal palace on the island, there are many chosen children with exceptional talent. They are nurtured and trained by the elders of the palace, continuously enhancing their own strength.
When someone among the Nine Major Naansen Guards dies, the divine tree will select a new one from among these children to replace it, and this cycle will continue.
Elijah was one of the Nine Major Naansen Guards, but he spent most of his time traveling around the island of Naansen, unlike other Naansen Guards who remained in the royal palace.
Qu Tong had met Elijah abroad, so he also learned some intelligence about Elijah through the memories of Qu Tong.
In the royal palace of Naansen Island, there was a sudden distortion, and the King of Naansen appeared in front of the throne.
"How is it, Your Majesty? Has he agreed?"
One of the Naansen Guards standing below asked.
The King of Naansen shook his head:
"No, but he said he would fight for himself, which should also ease some of our pressure."
Someone broke the golden branch, initiating a change in the throne, which led to the Naansen Island having to open its borders.
As the King of Naansen, she knew that opening the island would inevitably cause Bismos' greed.
Because before this, the Bismos Corporation had been trying every possible means to invade Naansen Island, wanting to possess the entire island of Naansen and the divine tree.
However, because when Naansen Island was sealed off, it would be surrounded by storms, making it impossible for planes and warships to approach, only a few experts had the chance to enter, and so they had to give up.
And now that Naansen Island has opened up, the Bismos Corporation will certainly launch a large-scale invasion.
Facing the large number of Bismos's gene warriors and various powerful modern weapons, she had no confidence in defending the island before the end of the succession ceremony.
So, in order to protect Naansen Island, she had to throw herself into the fray, hoping to win amidst the chaos.
So she specially invited the world's major forces to meet her under the pretext of trading goods, openly announcing the opening of the island.
In this way, all the forces have plans to land on the island, including those otherworldly individuals who have had conflicts with the outcasts on the island, who will take this opportunity to land as well.
The current situation was indeed as he had predicted, with Bismos using its overwhelming strength to prevent other major forces from vying for Naansen Island and the divine tree.
But according to her senses, there are still many otherworldly individuals quietly landing on the island.
Among them are high-level experts sent by various major forces in secret, as well as some otherworldly individuals who are curious about Naansen Island or seeking to revenge against the outcasts.
If used well, these people should be able to have some impact on the Bismos Corporation's personnel.
At the same time, she is also contacting the forces of the market and the amusement park, hoping to have both parties help the royal palace resist the invasion of the Bismos Corporation.
The market force has clearly refused, wanting to remain neutral, but in secret, it has already aligned with the Bismos Corporation and has no hope.
The leader of the amusement park, although not explicitly agreeing, should also count as standing on the side of the palace according to what he said.
The leader of the amusement park had been fighting against the Bismos Corporation with his gang before coming to the island, and this time, the Bismos Corporation would definitely not let go of him, who was hanging upside down.
So the meaning of "fighting for himself" for Diao Daozi is that he will fight Bismos Corporation to the end, but not for the palace.
"Your Majesty, I have some news here"
At this moment, Elijah recounted in detail the events that had taken place at Ruan Feng's side as reported by the person below.
After listening to Elijah's report, the King of Naansen's eyes brightened immediately.
"Such strength! Do we have any information about this person?"
She is not afraid of the strength of the otherworldly individuals landing on the island, but she fears that they are not strong enough or numerous enough, that they might be scared by the Bismos Corporation and dare not come.
The Bismos Corporation wants the divine tree and the entire Naansen Island, and no matter what the otherworldly individuals on the island want, they will inevitably conflict with the Bismos Corporation.
What she wants is to intensify this conflict, the bigger the conflict, the more Bismos Corporation's strength will be weakened, and Naansen Island will have a glimmer of hope.
"Yes, this person is named Jin Baobao. He has been very famous in the Eastern otherworldly realm lately, and some people call him one of the world's top martial artists."
Elijah, a Naansen guard, answered.
As the Naansen Guard responsible for the island's external affairs, he has been collecting intelligence from various countries for years, and he has also heard a little bit about Jin Baobao, who has recently become famous.
"However, for such a dangerous person, I think it's best for the King to be cautious in contacting him."
The unexpected appearance of this strong person might disrupt his plans, so he doesn't want the King to meet him.
In fact, he was the person who broke the golden branch to initiate the change of succession.
Of course, he didn't really want to become the king, nor did he intend to betray Naansen Island and join the Bismos Corporation.
If he had any thoughts of betraying Naansen Island, he would have been stripped of his Naansen Guard identity by the divine tree at the first sign.
Why did he break the golden branch and allow people from the Bismos Corporation to enter the island?
Because over the years he has been on the move, he has seen the power of various countries, which is far beyond what Naansen Island can compare to. It's even unworthy of being called a nation.
People outside are living a peaceful, secure and happy life, while the island of Naansen is filled with killing and struggle. Even the island's native people live very impoverished and backward.
In the eyes of other countries, Naansen Island is a big piece of fat meat that will eventually be divided up.
Instead, it's better to have him take the initiative, like plotting with the tiger and inviting various parties into the game, and then finding an opportunity to personally destroy the divine tree himself, paving a new path and future for the Naansen Island people.
Even if this process requires him to sacrifice himself, he is willing to do so.
It is also because his ultimate goal is for Naansen Island that the divine tree judges that he still has the qualifications to serve as a Naansen Guard.
"It's okay, I can't worry about that now. I'll go there personally."
The King of Naansen disappeared in a flash, already having left the spot.
Once again appearing, he had arrived in front of George.
"Your Majesty!"
Two ordinary Naansen guards saw the King appear and immediately knelt down respectfully.
The King of Naansen nodded and then looked at George:
"I hear you want to see me?"
"Quite right. I'm interested in the divine tree and would like to study it, but I don't know if it's convenient for you."
George was very straightforward in stating his intent, and he didn't need to play any games with his strength.
The King of Naansen did not seem surprised, just smiling.
"Okay, I'll take you to see the divine tree."
