CapĆtulo 1433: Chapter 492: Awakening (Part 5)
āLord Coronan, why is everyone attacking the Federation?ā
āThat, Iām not quite sure about. The main issue lies with the Dragon String Council President. Logically, he should have appeared by now, but he hasnāt come out. If the Dragon String Council President could come forward, the Federation wouldnāt be in such a dire situation.ā
Coronan explained to Su Ming.
āHmm, Lord Coronan, do you know much about the Dragon String Council President?ā
After hearing Coronanās words, Su Ming also strongly agreed. If the Dragon String Council President came out, not only could he intimidate the enemy, but he could also mobilize various resources, and the situation wouldnāt be so bad.
āUh, if my father were still alive, perhaps he would know something, but I really donāt know.ā
Coronan shook his head in reply.
āAll right then.ā
Su Ming replied somewhat regretfully.
āOf course, you donāt have to be regretful. Although I donāt know much about this matter, there is someone who definitely knows something about the inside story; you can ask him.ā
Coronan said to Su Ming.
āWho?ā
āThe former Archbishop of the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country, Emkain.ā
Coronan said to Su Ming.
āThank you.ā
Upon hearing Coronanās words, Su Ming immediately reacted that Emkain, being so old, and having been an Archbishop for so long, must know something about the inside story.
āYouāre welcome. Just rest assured and recuperate here. As for returning to the Federation, youād better think it over again.ā
āI know youāre looking out for my best interests, but precisely because the Federationās situation is not good, I need to go back.ā
āAh, all right! When your health improves, Iāll personally arrange a ship to send you off.ā
Coronan said to Su Ming.
āThank you.ā
Seeing Coronan agree, Su Ming also breathed a slight sigh of relief.
At this moment, Emkain pushed open the door to the ward and came in, showing a completely different warm demeanor as he greeted them.
āGeneral Su Ming, are you feeling better?ā
āYes, much better.ā
Su Ming was a bit surprised at how enthusiastic Emkain was.
At that moment, Emkain glanced at everyone present and smiled as he said,
āGeneral Su Ming, can I have a private word with you?ā
āSure, I also have something Iād like to consult you about.ā
Su Ming nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, An Ruoxue and the others exited the ward, leaving the room to the two of them.
At this moment, Emkain sat down by the bedside, looking kindly at Su Ming, and asked,
āGeneral Su Ming, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.ā
āItās like this, Iād like to ask Lord Emkain if you know much about the Dragon String Council President. Why does everyone want to attack the Federation?ā
Su Ming asked with a serious expression.
Emkainās brows immediately knitted tightly, his expression shifting, and then he spoke,
āGeneral Su Ming, let me tell you this: thereās nothing much to say about the Dragon String Council President. Heās practically a legendary hero, quite formidable, and both humans and Alien Races hold him in awe! As for why everyone wants to besiege the Federation, I might know a bit about that.ā
āAre you able to discuss it?ā
Su Mingās eyes lit up as he hurriedly inquired.
āWhy not? Our lives were saved by you; this is nothing. Do you know about the expedition to the Alien Race that the Dragon String Council President carried out with the Dark Star Emperor and the Fanluo God Emperor?ā
Emkain said with a serious expression.
āI know.ā
āBack during the expedition, the Council President led them through the Alien Race, entering a pitch-black abyss.ā
āThe Abyss?ā
Hearing this, Su Mingās eyelids twitched violently and he asked to confirm.
āYes!ā
āWhat kind of abyss?ā
āThat, I donāt know, but I do know that when they returned from the expedition, the Dragon String Council President brought back some things from the abyss.ā
āWhat things?ā
āThat, I donāt know. But I know the Fanluo God Emperor regaining his youth is most likely related to something brought back from the abyss. As for the Dark Star Empireās situation, itās probably the same. You can imagine, if those guys brought something so defying, then what kind of shocking thing does the Dragon String Council President have in his possession?ā
Emkain explained to Su Ming.
āThank you, Lord Emkain, for clarifying.ā
As Su Ming heard this, his heart sank to the bottom. As he had suspected, the best things are in the Federationās hands.
Fanluo and the others used the things they brought back to exit seclusion, and now that the Dragon String Council President hasnāt come out of seclusion yet, itās likely because thereās something wrong with it, which he hasnāt used.
If this is the case, then the situation is extremely serious. Once itās confirmed that thereās a problem with the Dragon String Council President, everyone will surely go mad and gang up on the Federation for that item, unless the Federation hands it over.
āNo problem, General Su Ming, may I ask you something?ā
āGo ahead.ā
āCan you tell me your parentsā names? Do you have any ancestors from the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country?ā
Emkain asked with a smile.
After hearing Emkainās question, Su Ming was taken aback and then replied,
āIām from Thunder God Interstellar Heavy Industry Group, my father is Su Yuan, my mother is Zhao Ning, and Iāve never heard of any ancestors from the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country.ā
āI see. Then who taught you your gun skill?ā
Emkain eagerly asked.
Su Mingās combat gun skill was recognized by him at a glance, as it was a skill passed down from the God, never shared outside the Holy Temple.
āUh, can I say I taught myself?ā
Su Ming didnāt want to deceive Emkain, and he couldnāt even if he wanted to. Others might not know how many people knew this gun skill, but Emkain knew better than anyone.
Hearing Su Mingās response, instead of feeling like Su Ming was brushing him off, Emkainās eyes grew even more fervent.
Indeed, as he had suspected, General Su Ming must have been blessed by the God. He even suspected that General Su Ming was the reincarnation of the God.
After all, the Holy Scripture records that the God would return to this world one day.
At this moment, Su Ming felt uneasy under Emkainās gaze and awkwardly spoke,
āI find it hard to believe too, but thatās the truth.ā
āNo, itās not unbelievable! General Su Ming, when you delivered that impassioned speech during the breakout, it earned my utmost respect. I think you are very suited to lead the Divine Word Legion to promote the faith of the God. Would you be interested in staying?ā
Emkain looked at Su Ming with high hopes.
Hearing Emkainās words, Su Mingās heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Emkain in disbelief. Did this guy see through something?
However, Su Ming quickly dismissed this thought, knowing it was impossible for his identity to be discovered; this must be a desperate attempt for help.
āIām sorry, Lord Emkain, I really canāt take on such a great responsibility. Besides, my family is all in the Federation; Iāll have to return there sooner or later.ā
Su Ming politely declined.
Seeing Su Mingās refusal, Emkain was genuinely disappointed and sighed helplessly.
āAh~ā
āHowever, if you need help in the future and Iām able to assist, please feel free to ask.ā
Su Ming hesitated a moment but finally spoke up.
āAll right, then I wonāt disturb General Su Mingās rest any longer.ā
Emkain said with a smile upon hearing Su Mingās words.
āYes, take care.ā
Su Ming nodded.
Emkain got up and left the ward.
