Devon wasn't wearing his "uniform" today. The red armband on the left sleeve was too conspicuous. He wore a blue woolen jacket and a beige and dark brown plaid flat cap, with his hands in his trouser pockets. He walked at a brisk pace, no different from an ordinary pedestrian. He was accompanied by a few others, all dressed similarly and looking ordinary. People dressed this way were a common sight here. The two men standing guard at the bar entrance merely glanced at them before looking…-

After leaving the imperial palace, Zhu Sansi looked up at the blue sky. To him, everything that was happening now felt like a dream. Although his position as the Eastern Military Region Commander was still essentially a commander without troops, with his subordinates being only the remnants from the northern expedition, he was already deeply grateful to the Emperor. In the Imperial Study, the Emperor had made it very clear that whether his Eastern Commander position could eventually be on par with…

In a flash, the court was filled with whispers. Xiao Ming carefully observed the expressions of the generals. When everyone stopped discussing, he said loudly, "Since you all feel that Zhu Sansi cannot serve as the Eastern Commander, then who is willing to take on this responsibility?" The court fell into dead silence. After a moment of silence, Ma Xudong said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Zhu Sansi is young and promising. His expedition to Yakutsk must have accumulated rich experience in expeditions.…

"This old slave is confused." Qian Dafu scratched his head, truly not understanding the meaning. Xiao Ming calmly explained, "Gathering together and drinking in broad daylight shows that they are open-minded, without any concerns or conflicts of interest. If they were like strangers, it would be difficult to guess their intentions." "Your Majesty's words make sense. So, Elder Fei has something on his conscience. General Luo Quan returned this time, but he didn't even visit him." Qian Dafu placed…

The social environment in the Federation is very interesting. The upper-class people can be stupid—politicians can be unable to do two-digit multiplication, can be unable to do three-digit addition and subtraction, can have an IQ that is below the minimum standard of ordinary people, or even be intellectually disabled. But these will not make them lose their power. They can be bad—they can go against their conscience to do some bad things, help the capitalists to plunder wealth more and faster,…

The colossal roar when 'Gungnir' fired was completely different from the heavy, resonant sound of conventional artillery. It was more like a sharp detonation that suddenly filled everyone's ears, making their chests feel tight and their heads dizzy. Even Morin, Leonia, Lucas, and the accompanying Magitech Engineers recording data, standing at a safe distance with their mouths open, felt the same chest constriction and dizziness. Morin even saw the air in front of the muzzle visibly distort due to…

"Gasp..." "Gasp..." Eugene instinctively protected both sides of his head with his hands. The whole world seemed to be spinning with his breath. He felt like he was about to die. Every one of Ethan's punches was like being hit directly in the face by a car. After just a few punches, he had already realized that he would not survive tonight. Blood kept flowing from the wounds on his face. In his ears, there was only the suppressed crying of his wife and the pleading voice of his son. He…

The intense thumping of his heart accelerated his metabolism, and also made little Eugene much more sober. He was half-lying on the floor of the panel van, in a sideways position, his eyes staring at the person sitting next to him in the darkness. At this very moment, he was filled with incomparable regret, like that bad kid who couldn't even go to high school because he was disobedient, full of remorse for his past life and rebellion. Right now, not only did he want to cry, he also wanted to…
