Chapter 772: Chapter 139 Various Reactions

"Roar!"

The dark red dragon, exhaling flames, circled above the valley, turning crowds of creatures to ash as they wailed in the fire.

The girl gazed at the thrilled Casar, "Brother Casar, do you know the person who came to rescue us?"

"I do!" Casar excitedly grabbed the girl’s slender shoulders, "Of course I know, this dragon is named Qiuqiu, it’s my captain’s pet."

The girl, embraced by Casar, flushed, "The captain, is it the ’Duke’ you often talk about, the pioneer SO1?"

Casar nodded vigorously, "Yes, it’s him. With the captain here, we’ll be saved!"

The surrounding soldiers, hearing this, sported excited expressions, "The Duke, the Duke is here!"

"The Duke?!"

The live stream room, which had been quieting down, saw its screen filled with rapidly increasing comments, and the viewership numbers began to surge again.

"Damn, did I just hear that right, the Duke?!"

"I heard it too, it’s indeed Lord Duke!!"

"The Duke hasn’t shown up for so long, I thought he turned into a turtle hiding in its shell."

"Heh, you’re the turtle, when has Lord Duke not stepped forward?"

News of the Duke appearing at the Pamir Plateau front spread instantly, exploding across the internet. Soon after, major media outlets unified their reports and topped their news feeds with stories about ’The Duke’ and detailed his exploits meticulously.

The originally flagging online atmosphere spiked as if on steroids, particularly on youth-dominated B-site, where various influencers started creating content, cutting Shao Zifeng’s past battle videos with electrifying music, rocketing to the top of trending searches.

On the Southern Front, Xiang Nan stepped out of the void, pale-faced. His right hand, gripping a dagger, quivered slightly as blood trickled from the sleeve of his combat suit, running down the dagger.

Seeing this, Hu Shiwu’s expression changed, and he hurriedly supported him, "Are you hurt?"

"It’s nothing." Xiang Nan looked at the scratch on his forearm with an indifferent face showing no emotion, "A minor wound, give me the vaccine."

"You and your ways!" Hu Shiwu, jogging slightly, pulled out a medical kit from under a camp bed, rummaging through the disordered medical tools, "I’ve told you so many times, our ’Executor’s’ main duty is intelligence. You always rush in head-first; what do you think you can accomplish with your meager strength?"

"Hey, talk about ’Executors’ being luckier than ’Pioneers’, good thing we got out fast..."

Listening to Hu Shiwu’s incessant chatter, a faint smile appeared on Xiang Nan’s pallid face as he sat on the couch, casually picking up a tablet from the seat.

As he looked at the news alert on the device, a trace of joy flickered in Xiang Nan’s eyes, then his brows furrowed.

"What are you looking at?" Hu Shiwu, holding the vaccine, came up close, glancing casually at the screen before suddenly screaming, "The Captain!!!"

He dropped the vaccine, grabbing Xiang Nan’s arm and shaking it, "Damn damn, Li Yiming the kid appeared, our captain is also out there, looks like our Su City’s Five Swordsmen are going to make it big!"

"Pamir Plateau, damn, I always said we should go there, Casar must be thrilled."

Xiang Nan looked at him expressionlessly and struggled to free his arm, "It hurts."

Hu Shiwu quickly let go, chuckling nervously, "Heh, sorry, sorry, I got too excited."

Xiang Nan shook his head, staring at the top headline on the tablet, his brows tightly knitted, "The captain showing up at this time isn’t a good sign."

Biological Potion Research Institute.

Chen Yixin wearily shuttled between the laboratory equipment. She ruffled her messy hair and, looking at the experiment report in her hand, asked without lifting her head, "Have the test results for the VI Power Enhancement Potion and the Type II Elemental Purification Potion come out yet?"

"Not yet, Professor." Tang Tang said with a feeling of sympathy, looking at the exhausted Chen Yixin, "Professor, you haven’t rested for almost two days. The results of the experiment report will take some more time. Why don’t you take a nap first?"

"No need." Chen Yixin glanced at the data on the equipment. "This batch of potions needs to be deployed to the front lines as soon as possible. Go make me a cup of coffee and then read out the news from the past two days."

Tang Tang muttered softly, "But isn’t the development of these potions supposed to be the work of the Biological Potion Research Institute?"

Seeing that Chen Yixin did not respond, Tang Tang pouted her lips.

She knew once her professor started insisting on something, not even ten bulls could pull her back, and nobody could change her decision.

Tang Tang swiftly made the coffee, placed it beside Chen Yixin, and began reading from her smartphone.

Listening to Tang Tang’s soft voice, Chen Yixin sipped her coffee, but her eyes never left the documents in her hands.

Suddenly, she raised her eyebrows and asked Tang Tang, "Could you repeat that news piece you just read?"

Tang Tang nodded her little head, "Imperial Capital News Network reported, ’Duke’ Appears on Pamir Plateau Battlefront, Repels a Monster Army of One Hundred Thousand. According to our report, Pioneer SO1 ’Duke’ appeared today on the Pamir Plateau battlefront, accompanied by his pet fire dragon..."

After hearing the report, Chen Yixin slowly put down the document in her hand. "Are there any other reports?"

"Yes?" Tang Tang quickly scrolled through her phone, excitedly saying, "Zifeng made a big splash this time. Not only does the Imperial Capital News Network have a special report, but also the Great Xia Daily, Great Xia Global Times, and other major media outlets gave it front page headlines. Now, the entire internet is full of praise for Zifeng."

Thump!

The coffee cup was heavily placed on the lab bench, the splashing coffee scattering in the light.

Tang Tang was startled, quickly standing up, "Professor..."

Chen Yixin said coldly, "Arrange transportation. I need to make a trip to Ting Ming Pavilion."

Tang Tang suddenly widened her eyes, as if she had heard something unbelievable.

Ting Ming Pavilion.

Several elders of the Council looked at each other in silence.

The military-dressed elder looked around the room, twisting his bearded chin, and turned to Wu Tianyan, "I’m not questioning your decision, but..."

His voice instantly drew the attention of others, and they all looked over.

The military-dressed elder continued, smacking his lips, "Indeed, young Zifeng is very strong, but isn’t it a bit excessive for the media to portray him as the hope of humanity, the star of Great Xia?"

"After all, he is still a child. This is undoubtedly putting him on a pyre to be roasted."

"Facing such a level of disaster, no one can guarantee victory, and young Zifeng has borne the expectations of the people, yet he cannot afford to fail..."

"Otherwise, the backlash from the people will ruin him."

Wu Tianyan tapped his fingers lightly on the conference table, his somber voice echoing in the hall, as if tapping into everyone’s hearts.

Creak—

At that moment, the door to the conference room was pushed open and Secretary Sun hurried in, "Mr. Wu, Professor Chen Yixin wishes to see you, what do you think..."

"Nonsense." Wu Tianyan suddenly opened his eyes wide. "What is she doing here instead of staying in the laboratory?"
