Chapter 2447

"Harris, what's going on?" Lake asked in a gentle tone.

"Lake, withdraw your people! Ye Xiao can't be killed." Harris, the director of the IBF, said in a deep voice on the other end of the communicator.

"Why can't he be killed? I want a reasonable explanation. You have to know that Ye Xiao killed two regional leaders of my AIC." Lake said unhappily.

Lake not only hated Ye Xiao for causing huge losses to his AIC, but also because he had informed Harris of this action in advance, and Harris also acquiesced to his actions at that time.

But now, he was about to blow Ye Xiao to ashes, but Harris drove fighter planes and warships to stop him.

What's going on?

Is he slapping himself in the face in front of all his subordinates?

Harris on the other end of the communicator sighed and said helplessly: "Lake, I think you should have heard that the Dragon Country War Department and the Commerce Department representatives will visit our country in ten days!"

"So what? If I let the Dragon Country War Department lose a general before that, wouldn't it be better to deter the Dragon Country and be more beneficial to our negotiations?"

Lake said coldly.

He was also aware of the Second Elder's upcoming visit to Country M, and he was also very clear about the style of Country M in diplomatic negotiations. Even if there was nothing, they would find something out of nothing to increase their bargaining chips.

This time, wouldn't Country M be able to use the excuse that the Dragon Country sent Ye Xiao to lurk in Country M with ill intentions to maintain a strong position against the Dragon Country at the negotiation table?

"Ye Xiao's identity is different now. Not long ago, Longguo appointed Ye Xiao as the advance representative for the negotiations between the two sides. That is to say, Ye Xiao is not only a general of Longguo's war department, but also a member of the visiting delegation." Harris continued. Hearing this, Lake frowned slightly. "This is just a trick played by Longguo. I don't care what Ye Xiao's identity is now. He is not only stained with the blood of the leaders of the two major regions of my AIC, but he also holds the leader of the Central Continent of my AIC in his hands." "In my eyes, he is a thug who despises my AIC and despises M country, so I must kill this boy!" Even though he knew that Ye Xiao was appointed as the advance representative by the Longguo government, Lake still didn't take it too seriously. If Ye Xiao didn't die, Lake would not only be unable to explain to other people in AIC, but his personal prestige would also fall to the ground. Moreover, Ye Xiao also seriously threatened his own personal safety. So even if he was accused of obstructing the negotiations between the two countries, Lake would kill Ye Xiao.

And in his opinion, he would not be held accountable for doing so. Those hard-line politicians in Country M who shouted about decoupling from Country Long would definitely stand on his side, so he was willing to take the risk.

"Lake, do you know why the War Department sent fighter planes and warships to send me to talk to you?" Harris on the other end of the communicator said with some self-mockery.

In fact, when he first heard that the Presidential Palace had sent an order asking him to come and persuade Lake, he also said the same thing to the President as Lake did at this time.

Hearing this, Lake's brows knitted tighter.

He also had such doubts in his heart.

Why could Harris mobilize fighter planes and warships?

You know, he and Harris are of the same level, and he can only mobilize helicopters and small ships in Country M!

Is there any other situation?

At this time, Harris on the other end of the communicator said in a low voice: "Two hours ago, our satellite observed that several Longguo warships appeared in the Bailing Sea area."

"It has entered our exclusive economic zone. Longguo claims that it is the so-called free navigation."

"An hour and a half ago, the Longguo War Department also sent a notice to our War Department that they will launch a training intercontinental missile with a simulated box warhead in the high seas of the East Ocean one day later."

"Lake, you now know the seriousness of the problem! If you insist on firing at Ye Xiao, it is very likely that a war will be triggered because of you."

Harris and Lake are both from intelligence backgrounds. Now that he has said this, I believe Lake can imagine what kind of signal the Longguo War Department is sending.

As Harris expected, after hearing what he said, Lake's hand holding the communicator shook violently.

If he was only responsible for killing Ye Xiao, he thought he could handle it easily, but going to war with the second largest country was a crime that even the President of Country M could not handle.

After all, the times are different now.M Country now doesn't even have the confidence to go to war with a medium-sized country, let alone go to war with Dragon Country.

After a long time, Lake said weakly: "I know what to do. Tell the warplanes and warships of the War Department not to come again."

Lake knew that even if Ye Xiao, who was protected by the Dragon Country War Department, was captured alive and sent to him, he would not dare to kill him even if he had ten guts. All he could do now was to try his best to maintain his dignity.

After adjusting his mood, Lake shouted to Ye Xiao again unwillingly: "Ye Xiao, just do as you said, you release Kraken, and I will leave a passage for you."

Hearing Lake's words, Hasim and Kraken were shocked.

A few minutes ago, Lake was shouting that he would raze the island to the ground and let Ye Xiao die in the belly of the fish! Why did his attitude soften all of a sudden?

Could it be that Lake's gesture just now was just to scare Ye Xiao, and he actually wanted to save Kraken?

Ye Xiao, Zhuge Lin, and Han Tianyou knew very well what was going on.

It wasn't that Lake suddenly showed mercy and let them go, but that the other party had no choice.

It can only be said that dignity only lies on the sword, and truth only lies within the range of cannons.

This is the basic logic of the world now. When you are so powerful that the world is terrified, even the obstacles that used to be snarling at you will become docile big cats.

"I also want a fully fueled boat." Ye Xiao chuckled and said to Lake.

After all, this place is still a little far from the land, and we can't let them all swim to the land!

Although Lake was very angry about Ye Xiao's request, he didn't refuse it. He withdrew the order to encircle and kill Ye Xiao, which was already very embarrassing. If he couldn't get Kraken back, his position would probably be over.

"General Lake, there is also me. I can serve AIC. Please take me with you!" Hasim shouted loudly.

In Lake's words just now, he did not let Ye Xiao be released together with him!

However, before Lake could speak, Ye Xiao said indifferently: "General Lake, Hasim violated the rules of the Temple of Killing God. I want to abolish his martial arts and send him to the main temple. Do you have any objections?"

On the ship, Lake, who originally wanted to speak, swallowed the words that were about to come to his mouth after hearing what Ye Xiao said.

The reason why he wanted to save Hasim at the beginning was that he valued Hasim's strength and wanted to use him for himself, but now that Ye Xiao has clearly stated that he wants to abolish Hasim, he believes that he has no ability to stop Ye Xiao from doing so.

So how could he be interested in a useless person?

Lake waved his hand and signaled his men to drive a ship to the island.

Seeing that Lake ignored him completely, Hasim was completely desperate.

He couldn't figure out what was going on.

Lake was willing to exchange a useless Kraken, so why wouldn't he say a word and take him in?
