Chapter 143 - Task.
Yang Dao nodded in reply. He said, “Mr. Browns, let me introduce myself, Feng Yang Dao, not pleased to make your acquaintance.” his voice was calm and steady.
His voice carried an invisible aura. It was as if an emperor suddenly popped up among the plebeians. Ashton Brown was shocked. He never expected that he would cross paths with this god of plague. Recently, the damage done to the Cryptonian economy was still fresh in their minds. He regretted this.
He wanted to apologize as well, but suddenly three policemen arrived. They were called over here by Yang Dao earlier. Ashton Browns was taken back to the Cryptonian consulate while his guards were sent to the hospital for treatment. One had a leg broken while the other suffered from a concussion.
The crowd cheered as they saw Ashton Browns being taken away. They were all very depressed by his cockiness, yet still, they could do nothing because their pride stopped them from seeking outside help, such as police, and second, they were not smart enough.
As the famous saying goes, ‘Common sense is not so common.’
Yang Dao shook his head at the people who were cheering up. Then he turned his gaze to Genie, and asked, “Okay, you can let go now. He won’t come back.” His voice was low enough to be heard by the girl only.
Genie woke up from her daze and said, “You dealt with that guy just like that? Like in a matter of minutes?” she still found it hard to believe. How can something that she has been bothered by for almost a year can be solved by this boy so easily? Although she woke up, she still did not let go of her grip on his arm.
Suddenly, Yang Dao sensed his mobile ringing. He said, “Excuse, I need to take a call.” only now did the girl let go. The shy Dao Child thanked the caller secretly. Just now, his heart was almost exploding. Genie was just a few marks short of reaching Feng Yun or Laohu Bai. Recently, he has been receiving attacks from the opposite gender as well. His awareness has improved. It would be awkward if he walked around with a bulge in his pants.
He found a secluded corner and fished out his mobile. The caller ID displayed an encrypted number. Yang Dao picked it up with some scruples on his mind. he said, ‘Hello?”
A familiar voice sounded from the other side, “Special recruit Yang Dao, this is Lieutenant General Tiberius speaking. You are now ordered to report to the Central Command Office, ASAP. You have a task.”
A sense of urgency overwhelmed Yang Dao. he replied, “Yes, sir.”
The call was disconnected, Yang Dao first called Atsuji Kurogame. He asked as soon as the call was connected, “Elder, do you know?”
The old side replied, “Young Master, it is a secret assignment. You report as soon as possible. I will talk to Feng Yun and the rest.” his voice was solemn. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Yang Dao did not delay any further. He disconnected the call and turned around to find Icarus. But the birthday boy was occupied with his friends at this moment. He looked around and suddenly a silky voice sounded in his ears, “Dao, are you looking for anyone?”
The voice belonged to Adriana Stern. Yang Dao turned around and with a slight bow, he said, “Madam, I have to go. Something urgent came up at home. I wanted to tell Icarus, but he is busy attending to the guests.”
Adriana asked, “Everything alright?” her eyes showed a tint of concern.
Yang Dao nodded and said, “Yes, it is not a big deal. Also, can you please pass on my good wishes and this gift to him?” he took out the box from the inside of his coat and extended it to Adriana.
The lady took it with a smile and said, “I will handle it for you. be careful on the road and come to visit us in the future.” well just the random usual lip service.
Yang Dao left the reception hall and came to the parking lot. He started his car and drove out of the mansion. It was almost dinner time, and the traffic was scarce. Yang Dao used the GPS to locate the central command office in the city. He stepped on the pedal and the beast galloped.
Central Command was the name for special forces commanding office. They had offices in every city of the country, but this was the headquarters. At this moment, many people were gathered in the situation room. They all had solemn expressions on their faces. Tiberius sat in the head position with a saddened face. he asked, “Still no news?”
The surrounding people shook their heads. They all were also helpless. Suddenly, military personnel came inside the room. He saluted and said, “Sir, a special recruit called Yang Dao is here to report.”
Tiberius smiled suddenly and said, “March him inside.”
The soldier turned to the door and yelled, “SR DAO, MARCH IN.”
Yang Dao was standing outside in the corridor. He was led here when he came inside the building and told his situation to a soldier on the reception counter. He heard a loud call, and with a deep breath, he marched in.
He marched inside the situation room and his gaze fell on Tiberius. The boy saluted and said, “SPECIAL RECRUIT, YANG DAO, REPORTING FOR DUTY, SIR.”
His voice was crisp, and his actions were sharp. The people at the table could not help but look deeply at this boy in front of them with a light in their eyes. Tiberius said, “At ease.”
Yang Dao followed the instructions and heard the old man say, “Your assignment is to go to an enemy country, Imperial Star Nation. You will be accompanied by two of your comrades. Their details will be provided to you later. Your task is to investigate the disappearance of three of our agents there.”
Yang Dao was given a task, an important one.
