“Everyone’s gone mad, rushing back!?”

Meanwhile, at the Dragon Realm War Department, Braxton, the supreme commander overseeing all the military departments of the Dragon Realm, was currently looking at messages returned from all over the world, his scalp tingling.

“Get someone, I need to make a direct call to God of the Heaven War!” Braxton sternly ordered.

Just now, the “Four Great War Gods of Heaven and Earth” dispatched by the Dragon Realm to carry out missions, incredibly finished their respective tasks ahead of schedule and were desperately rushing back to the Dragon Realm.

Not only this, but the five War Kings stationed within the Dragon Realm had also reported at the first possible moment that they were bound for the southern area of the Dragon Realm.

His instinct told him that the reason the Four Great War Gods were rushing back to the Dragon Realm was probably also to head south.

What on earth had happened in the south?

Braxton asked all the commanders in charge of the South, yet none could give him an answer.

“Reporting sir, a call from God of Heaven War was denied!”

What!?

A tightening sensation suddenly gripped Braxton’s heart, his mood hitting rock bottom.

“It seems something big has happened. Investigate, keep investigating, at all costs, we must find out what exactly happened in the South! ”

At Braxton’s order, everyone immediately got to work.

At the same time, the military branches, patrols, and martial departments situated in the South of Dragon Realm were all frantically inquiring about the situation from their subordinates.

However, the only information they got was: All is Calm!

“Something’s not right, something can’t be right!” Braxton frowned at the reported situation, his eyebrows knitted into an arch.

“Report, sir! Luka from the Fighter Jets Department requests a direct line with you!” One of the operators ran up to Braxton.

“Tell him to stop bothering me. The fifth-generation fighter jets will be given to him. Stop bothering me like an old lady!”

Braxton was too bothered, with no time to deal with Luka. At the moment, figuring out what was going on in the South was the most important thing.

The operator left, but got back quickly: “Report, sir. Luka said it’s not about the fighter jets, instead he has important information to report.”

Braxton’s face darkened, and he walked to the phone annoyed, “Speak up, spit it out!”

“Er…” there was a pause in Luka’s voice, and then he seriously reported, “Report, sir. The pilot in White is preparing to land in River North city!”

Braxton paused, “White? What white? Wait, who did you just say?”

White?

River North?

Whoosh!

With realization, Braxton’s mind jolted, finally catching on.

Whoosh!

Only that man, only that man who could make the Four War Gods and Five War Kings rush there regardless of everything else.

“You Motherf! This important piece of information, why didn’t you report it earlier!!!” Braxton roared angrily.

“You didn’t answer my call, I…” Luka’s voice was full of grievance coming from the phone.

“Bullshit! Don’t you have my private number?”

Luka couldn’t utter a word in his grievance and whispered, “Last time you blocked me, you haven’t unblocked me yet.”

“Er…” Braxton was instantly speechless, after a pause he said: “If you didn’t nag me all the time, would I have blocked you?”

“Ok, it’s my fault, sir.” Luka lost all his temper. After sensing that Braxton’s temper had slightly calmed down, he continued, “Sir, I made another mistake, please reprimand me.”

“You motherf!” Braxton’s temper flared again, he grumbled, “Speak!”

“I sent ten jets from the Azure Dragon First Team to escort the White Army Master and instructed the River North Airport to clear a runway. ”

After saying this, Luka went silent. Even though he knew it was against the rules, he didn’t regret it. So, this call was to apologize.

Whoosh!

As expected, upon hearing the news, Braxton exploded into anger. This made Luka’s heart miss a beat.

That’s it, disciplinary action is a given!

“You Motherf! Only ten fighter jets for escort?”

“I’ve approved thousands of jets for you!”

“Have you swallowed up all of them?”

Luka: ???

“Luka, I doesn’t do anything to you, right? Are you trying to dig a hole for me?”

“Ten fighter jets lost in action will be an embarrassment to me!”

“I order you, immediately and at once, to send a hundred more planes to protect and blockade the River North airport for an hour. If anything happens to the White Army Master, I want to see your head on a plate!”

Luka: ???

“Did you f**king hear me clearly!?”

Luka was a little stupefied until he was been shouted at by Braxton, then stuttered in response, “Re…Received.”

Five minutes later, a hundred warplanes flew out of the airbase, tearing up the sky as they roared.

The River North airport at this moment, however, was still seemingly peaceful. The new intern went nervously to her superior, David, “Lea…Leader, that man has called several times already. Are we just going to ignore him?”

David’s mind wasn’t on the intern’s words, he said with some impatience, “Warn him that if he continues to harass us, I’ll have him arrested!”

The intern did not dare to argue, she went back to the communication device and, full of apologies, said to White Mitchell, “Sir, I am sorry, but the leader refuses your landing.”

At the River North airport, David was sitting in front of an instrument panel with one leg over the other, occasionally glancing at the new intern.

“Lea…Leader, there’s another order from above asking us to seal the entire airport for an hour and free all runways.”

The intern put down her telephone and walked over again, but she kept her head down, not daring to look at David.

“Why are you scared? I won’t eat you, raise your head, let me have a good look at you.”

Ignoring what the other party was saying, the only thing in David’s eyes was her shy and nervous face.

The intern slowly raised her head, her small hands didn’t know where to put them, and she wanted to say something but then suddenly stopped.

She was just a little intern. Whether she could get through her probationary period was entirely dependent on David’s decision.

David had a bad reputation, something she was warned about on her first day, but it was also accompanied by another statement: no one who hadn’t been tricked by David had ever passed probation.

Bang!

Just as David was about to reach out his “hairy hand”, the door of the airport control tower was violently opened.

“Who the hell… CEO?”

David quickly withdrew his hand, jumped up and bent down at a ninety-degree angle, looking like a scared quail.

“Didn’t you receive the order? Lockdown the airport! Why are you not taking action? Are you now even ignoring my words?”

The River North airport’s top man, the CEO, Jose.

Gulp!

David made a swallowing motion, with his heart in the throat.

Despite his uncle being the Deputy CEO of the airport, he is still only the second in command. Compared to this CEO, his rank is a bit lower.

Even with his uncle here, he wouldn’t dare to offend Jose, let alone he was just his uncle’s cousin.

“Wha… What order? I… I haven’t received anything. Ting, is that true? Didn’t you report it?”

David immediately made a choice and shifted the blame to the new intern, Ting.

“I…” Intern Ting trembled all over, just about to speak but was cut off by David, “What are you… Don’t you know that every order is of great importance? How many times have I reminded you not to play with your phone during work hours, you just won’t listen!”

With that, Intern Ting started crying pitifully and sobbing incessantly.

“You, tsk… Young people these days, can’t handle any pressure. I only said a few words, and you start crying. Isn’t this your fault?”

David did not stop shifting the blame, pushing the responsibility entirely onto the intern.

“David! Do you really think I’m a fool?” Jose was furious, and slapped David directly, sending him sprawling.

Boom!!!

Just when that happened, the thunderous sound of engines suddenly sounded, deafening like a thunderstorm.

This…

All eyes in the moment turned to the horizon.

Beep Beep Beep…

The radar alarm sounded non-stop, awakening the dumbfounded crowd.

David got up from the ground and looked at the radar.

Warplanes! Real warplanes!

1, 2, 3…111!

A total of 111 warplanes formed a cruising formation, coming in with a mighty momentum.

David was dumbstruck, standing there like a wooden chicken, unable to calm down for a long time.

Jose took over command immediately, opened the airport broadcast system and ordered: “From now on, shut down the airport for an hour. I don’t want a fly to get in!”
