Chapter 358 - 333: Someone Wants to Pick the Peaches!

Chapter 358: Chapter 333: Someone Wants to Pick the Peaches!

Poisonous Spider wasn’t in a hurry. In his line of work, patience was paramount.

With Boya making such a huge mess, there was no way the Xuanfeng Alliance would do nothing.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before another white man handed him a video. "Poisonous Spider, the latest news is out. Boya really went too far this time."

Poisonous Spider took the video and was shocked by the content of the latest news report.

The ground was covered with the bodies of civilians.

Deaths in war were normal, but attacking civilians was a different matter entirely.

The scene was especially jarring when all the bodies were moved and piled together. There were far too many ordinary people among the victims.

"How dare Boya’s men do this?" Even Poisonous Spider was stunned. "If the outside world finds out we were involved, we’ll get burned too."

The others all nodded in agreement, thankful that their contact with Yasna hadn’t left any incriminating evidence. The weapons they had provided had their serial numbers and country of origin filed off.

Even if Yasna pointed the finger at them, they would just deny it and accuse him in return.

Boya was the only one who would suffer from this incident.

The second news video, orchestrated by Xiaozhi, also began to spread throughout various countries.

This kind of news naturally drew everyone’s attention, as everyone hopes for lasting peace.

When people saw the Xuanfeng Alliance town being hit with that kind of firepower, they were stunned and started following the story.

When the new report showed the bodies of civilians being carried out one by one, it instantly triggered public outrage. This was a violation of international treaties.

Immediately, countless related organizations and groups began to protest, aiming all their condemnation at Boya.

Under these circumstances, the Xuanfeng Alliance now had a perfect justification to invade and occupy Boya.

「At Wind Manor.」

Xiaozhi’s voice sounded in Lu Feng’s ear. "Master, international public opinion has been shaped. More and more voices are supporting us, including the Beautiful Country!"

Lu Feng was almost dumbfounded.

He was basically certain who was pulling the strings behind Boya.

And now the mastermind was voicing support for him?

’This world is really something else...’

However, that didn’t matter anymore. He knew the Beautiful Country’s goal was unattainable for them, but they had given him a very legitimate reason to act.

So, setting aside their differences to pursue a common interest, even though he knew who was behind it, the blame could only fall on Boya.

Xiaozhi’s voice sounded again. "Master, the people from the FBI have been monitored. They should be making a move on Curik and the other two soon."

"So there are still these annoying flies," Lu Feng said, shaking his head dismissively.

The Beautiful Country’s support didn’t just dumbfound Lu Feng; Poisonous Spider and his men were also baffled.

But after watching the news report, Poisonous Spider knew it was time for him to act. "To think our country is actually voicing support for the Xuanfeng Alliance. How unexpected. However, our mission is not only to control the God of Hackers but also the Xuanfeng Alliance later on. Earning a little goodwill from them is necessary."

"So, first we’ll take care of the God of Hackers, then we’ll figure out a way to deal with the Xuanfeng Alliance’s Governor. When the time comes, Boya will take all the blame."

With that, Poisonous Spider led his men and infiltrated the computer school where Curik and the other two were teaching, heading straight for the office.

But soon, the expressions on Poisonous Spider and his men’s faces changed. There was no one in the office.

’That’s not right.’

According to the intelligence they gathered, the computer school not only had Curik and the other two Gods of Hackers, but it had also hired many other computer teachers.

Just then, Poisonous Spider and his men saw all the computers in the office light up, each simultaneously displaying a surveillance feed.

The feed showed their own group.

The expressions on Poisonous Spider’s group changed dramatically in an instant.

They immediately realized they had been discovered long ago.

At the same time, a teasing voice rang out, "Welcome to the Xuanfeng Alliance. Since you’re here, why don’t you stay?"

"Let’s go, now!" Poisonous Spider panicked, leading his men out of the office.

But just as he stepped out, a black figure shot out from around the corner. It actually had a pair of horns and strange, leathery skin.

It looked like a monster, not a human.

Before Poisonous Spider could react, he was slammed by the monster.

In that instant, it felt like being hit by a car at full speed. He spat blood and was sent flying, knocking down several men behind him as they all tumbled to the ground.

"What is this monster? Kill it, quickly!" Poisonous Spider clutched his chest, his face grim.

But before his men could make a move, a series of unbelievably fast afterimages rushed in. As they flashed past, all the men he had brought with him collapsed.

Each one had a grisly wound on their neck, with blood spraying out.

Poisonous Spider’s eyes widened in horror. He looked at the figures that had appeared before him, his body trembling with fear.

’The Xuanfeng Alliance has such bizarre powers?’

’No wonder all the people who came before vanished without a trace.’

The thought had barely crossed Poisonous Spider’s mind when a sharp pain shot through his neck. He clutched his throat as blood gushed between his fingers, and he collapsed.

"It’s all taken care of. Tell someone to come clean up," Swat said coldly as he reverted from his bull-like transformation.

Swat left the school and went straight to Wind Manor to report to Lu Feng. "His Excellency the Governor, they’ve been dealt with."

"Good," Lu Feng nodded.

Then it was time to proceed with the main event.

Xiaozhi’s voice sounded again. "Master, I have good news. Under my control, the people in Boya have also seen the news. It seems many of them are also very dissatisfied with what their own side has done. Some are even voicing support for us!"

"What?" This time, Lu Feng was genuinely surprised.

Then it dawned on him. Boya was very similar to the predecessor of the Xuanfeng Alliance. Both were chaotic regions that frequently experienced war.

They too had lived under the shadow of chaos, and their civilians had also died as collateral damage.

Therefore, the content of the news report had triggered the pain of their past traumas. This was the root of their anger, and it was something they could not tolerate.

"Them empathizing with us is a good thing." Lu Feng hadn’t expected such a pleasant surprise. He decisively called Dali and ordered, "The show is over. It’s time to go to Boya."

「Duoyasi Town.」 Dali was already waiting. Surrounding him were the assembled soldiers of the Xuanfeng Alliance, all brimming with fighting spirit, just waiting for the command to enter Boya.

After receiving Lu Feng’s order, Dali gave the command to move out without the slightest hesitation.

As the two news reports aired in Boya, chaos erupted there as well.

Yasna sat in his office, his face growing darker as he watched the news report. "Dammit, who told Dorona to do this? How could he dare?"

This was a situation he had never anticipated.

Boya had indeed made a move against the Xuanfeng Alliance, but even so, there were lines that shouldn’t be crossed.

He knew Dorona was warlike, but he never thought he would be so savage.

"Mr. Yasna, all we’re hearing now are voices of condemnation against us," his secretary reminded him in a low voice, his own expression just as grim. The news report had pushed Boya into a desperate situation.

Yasna’s face was full of rage. "Have you reached Dorona? I want his explanation."

He had been trying frantically to contact Dorona ever since he saw the news.

"Still no contact. It’s as if General Dorona has vanished," the secretary said, shaking his head hurriedly. "The crucial thing is that now our own people in Boya are starting to oppose us. They feel we can’t bring them hope."

Hearing this, Yasna’s expression soured even more. He forced himself to calm down, then suddenly shook his head. "’No, that’s not right. Something is wrong.’"

He immediately pulled up the first news report, reviewing the scene of the bombardment in Duoyasi Town.

Then, it hit him. He gasped, "This... Dorona didn’t do this! They don’t have that much firepower, and they couldn’t have coordinated an attack like that!"

He finally understood what was wrong.

’But if Dorona didn’t do it, then who did?’

He immediately looked at the second news report. Thinking about the unreachable Dorona, his eyes suddenly widened in horror as if he had realized something.

"N-No... impossible. How could they be so terrifying..." Yasna was frightened by his own speculation.

But just then, someone ran in, flustered. "Mr. Yasna, bad news! Myanmar has made a statement! They’re saying we violated the conventions and they’re going to take humanitarian action—sending troops to attack us and support the Xuanfeng Alliance."

"What?" Yasna’s face paled.

They were just a small territory. To them, Myanmar was a behemoth. If Myanmar targeted them, they wouldn’t stand a chance.

’Those lunatics in Myanmar, what does this have to do with them?’

But he was helpless. In this chaotic region, if a larger power saw an opportunity to take a bite out of a small place like theirs, they would do so without hesitation.

And now, in Myanmar’s eyes, Boya was a ripe piece of meat ready to be devoured. Because of those two news reports, they were now in a desperate predicament.

It wasn’t just Yasna. Back at Wind Manor, Lu Feng also quickly received a report from Xiaozhi. "Master, Myanmar is actually sending troops to support us. And they’re not even trying to hide it; they’re openly mustering soldiers."

"I suspect they also have their eyes on Boya’s natural harbor. Their main exports are things like raw timber, ores, and carved handicrafts... Because of their geographical location, they can only use air freight, which is extremely expensive. Having a port would change everything."

"Dammit!" Lu Feng’s brow furrowed upon hearing this news.

He had spent all this time scheming, only for someone else to try and snatch the prize.

The key issue was that Myanmar wasn’t like Boya. In terms of strength, its population of sixty million and army of over five hundred thousand soldiers were far beyond what the Xuanfeng Alliance could match.

’If I don’t come up with a plan, someone else is going to reap the rewards of my work.’
