Chapter 665 The Call of the Sword King
Chihuo: "It seems to be a little weaker in the past two years, but it should be one of the top five departments in the organization, right?"
Listening to Chihuo's answer, Lan Run showed a mocking smile.
"Top five? Hahaha, sorry I shouldn't laugh at this time, I just couldn't help it." Lan Run shook his head and said: "At present, in addition to some hidden special departments, there are a total of 17 departments in the organization. Our Resource Department is not the last, but it is still in the top three."
Chihuo was surprised and said: "Top three from the bottom!?"
Lan Run: "When the Rainbow R organization was just established, the Resource Department was indeed very powerful in the organization. At that time, if Phoenix said a word, even Chief Flamin had to consider it seriously, and often had to look at our faces, but now?"
Chihuo blinked his eyes and showed a look of reminiscence.
He used to follow Phoenix and often saw Chief Flamin, but in recent years, he has rarely seen him.
Lan Run: "It seems that you have noticed something. Then let me ask you again, do you know how many Flamins from various parallel universes there are in the organization?"
Chihuo shook his head: "I don't know exactly, there should be hundreds, right?"
Lan Run nodded: "Then how many Phoenixes are there in the organization?"
Chihuo suddenly realized something and whispered: "One... one?"
Lan Run showed a reminiscent expression: "The former Phoenix boss was not like this. Although he was introverted, he had great ideals and a magnanimous mind. It was because of his personality charm that I betrayed the Marine Corps and Parrett and willingly joined his army..."
Lan Run told the past events.
Lan Run, Chihuo and Phoenix came from the same parallel universe.
In that parallel universe, the Lava Corps led by Phoenix easily defeated the Marine Corps led by Parrett, and finally realized his ideal, using the power of Groudon to turn the entire planet into land.
But after the entire planet became land, Phoenix's personality changed.
Although the ideal has been realized, this ideal is different from what Phoenix imagined.
In Phoenix's imagination, the entire planet has become land, people and land elves will have more land, and people and elves will become happy.
But the reality is that the entire planet has experienced a mass extinction of creatures, and the originally vibrant Earth has become a barren planet.
Phoenix's beliefs have been impacted, and his originally broad mind has become narrow.
This also led to Phoenix facing himself in different parallel time and space, either suppressing or killing him, and never introducing him into the Resources Department to strengthen his own power.
As a result, the strength of the Resources Department has always stagnated, and was eventually surpassed by one department after another, becoming what it is now.
Chihuo grabbed his head and looked at Lan Run with disbelief. He suddenly found that his nemesis Lan Run was extremely unfamiliar.
Chihuo: "So, you actually hope that Boss Phoenix will die?"
Lan Run remained silent, which was considered to be tacitly agreeing to Chihuo's inquiry.
After a moment of silence, Lan Run spoke: "In fact, not only Kramar is a spy, but I am too. Three years ago, I betrayed the Resources Department."
"You..."
Chihuo clenched his fist and wanted to punch Lan Run in the head, but he didn't swing his fist in the end.
Lan Run glanced at Chihuo's fist: "I really hope you can punch me. After all, I used to regard the Resources Department as my home, but everything can't go back."
Lan Run sighed and continued to look at Chihuo: "Over the years, I have saved many of you in various parallel time and space and became friends with them, but none of them are as pure as you. To be honest, your personality is not suitable for joining the organization. These intrigues are too complicated for you.
But although I said that, if I talk about who I trust the most, it's only you!
I guess this is also the reason why the Phoenix King chose you."
"You!" Chihuo looked at Lan Run angrily: "And what do you mean by Phoenix King?"
The latter shook his head slightly and took out a card from his pocket.
"Literally, in the parallel universe where you almost died in CDS786 three years ago, it was actually the Phoenix King who saved your life. It seemed to be very optimistic about you, but Boss Phoenix concealed this from you.
In fact, he thought too much. With your loyalty, even if he asked you directly for the Phoenix King, you would give it to him with both hands."
Lan Run answered casually and handed the card to Chi Huo: "I know the amount of information is a bit too much for you. You can't accept these things for a while, and you can't trust me completely.
This card is a pass for the special operations team directly under the organization.
You don't have to be the security captain according to Krama's arrangement. Use this pass to leave the fortress of the headquarters and go to the Emerald Islands of the Roma Federation. Someone will be waiting for you there, and you can also verify everything I said there.
Five days later, I will find you, and I hope you can join us then..."
"As for Mark who is with you, he is also with you... eh?"
Lan Run touched his pocket and took out another pass, intending to give Mark a pass, and suddenly showed a surprised expression.
——Mark is gone.
Lan Run looked around, his face full of confusion.
When did Mark leave?
Chi Huo also discovered something, looked around, and shook his head blankly.
Then the next moment.
"Hello, this is Mark. I heard... Are you going to give me something? Just give it to Captain Chihuo first. I have something to do, so I'm leaving first..."
Lan Run frowned and took something like a walkie-talkie from Chihuo's shoulder. At this time, Mark's voice was coming from the walkie-talkie.
"Is this... a walkie-talkie?"
"Yes, I found that this room can block signals in most frequency bands, but it seems that low-end communication tools such as walkie-talkies in the ultra-short wave band don't work, so I left one."
As the voice came from the walkie-talkie, Lan Run showed a constipated expression.
Chihuo was at a loss, obviously not understanding the situation.
"The distance seems a bit far, and you have almost said it, so I will turn it off for the time being. Captain Chihuo, you just go to the Emerald Islands first. I will find a way to meet you. See you later..."
Accompanied by a burst of electric current, the walkie-talkie completely calmed down.
Two kilometers away, Mark put away the walkie-talkie and then accelerated forward in the chaotic space of the mechanical fortress here.
The mechanical fortress is not entirely a mechanical fortress. As Mark came out of the fortress, an environment similar to an underground jungle appeared in front of him. It was dark but had a dense jungle.
As he continued to move forward, the voice in Mark's mind became clearer and clearer.
Mark also gradually realized which elf was calling him, and understood why Shemy and Victini said that they had a familiar feeling of déjà vu.
As he moved forward, not only the voice in his mind, but also one of the items he carried had a reaction.
Mark opened the capsule compartment of the item and took out something like a rotten branch.
This rotten stick was constantly trembling.
This rotten stick was the [Decayed Sword] that the King of the Swords, Cang Xiang, had given him a long time ago.
Mark had asked Victini to repeatedly strengthen this sword with [Infinite Energy], and had Shemy purify it with the power of the grass system and [Seed Flash]. Later, Shemy regarded it as garbage and ate it.
This is probably why the two elves felt familiar.
Considering the existence of the Eternal Taina hidden in the sky in this parallel universe, it is clear that things are already obvious... (End of this chapter)
