Reborn as the Darling of the Delta

Deep Blue, far away in the Special Operations Department: If these people were this enthusiastic every time they did a task assigned by their superiors, it wouldn't be difficult for them to be promoted sooner, but... sigh, I'm getting old. Let the young people choose for themselves.

Just as the three were about to arrive at the bird nest gathering place, the thing they least wanted to see still happened.

"You three, stand there."

A deep voice sounded behind the three of them, and they stopped silently. After exchanging glances, they turned around stiffly.

A tall man was standing behind them. Looking at the armor he was wearing, the three of them immediately realized that this man was the captain of this area.

"Sir... what's the matter?"

Seeing that the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward, our warm-up artist—Roy—stepped forward. He took a few steps forward, gave the captain an Asara greeting, and then asked...

Wei Long/Red Wolf: Holy crap, when did Roy learn this behind our backs? But at least he knows this. I really don't know what this guy in front of me is trying to do.

Chapter 373 Colorful Bird Eggs (2)

"Where did you come from? Why have I never seen any of you before?"

The captain also began to scan the three unfamiliar faces in front of him with sharp eyes. The two in the back looked quite strong and seemed to be quite skilled. As for the one in front of him...

The captain glanced at Roy, who was trembling in front of him... Hmm, this guy is obviously one of their Valley soldiers; he looks completely incapable of fighting.

"Report, we were actually sent by Commander Saeed to check if there have been any changes to the terrain and landforms in Baksh recently. This is Commander Saeed's token. If there are any changes in Baksh, we need to go back and report to revise the map."

Under the somewhat surprised gazes of Wei Long and Red Wolf, Roy calmly took out a black and red hand crossbow from the backpack behind him, waved it at the squad leader in front of him, and at the same time, instantly gave the three of them new identities.

Wei Long: Wow, I didn't expect Roy to be the soul of the three of us? If it were me, I would have just used a jetpack to blow him up.

"Huh?! Said's crossbow? How come you know... I see, this place was indeed partially modified after the recent satellite collapse. You guys go check it out up ahead. Also... why is there someone with a prosthetic arm in your team?"

When the squad leader saw Roy pull out Said's crossbow, his eyes immediately turned serious. Who were these three people? Said would actually give them the crossbow he always carried. It seemed that drawing maps was real. But why hadn't he received any news?

"Oh, it was Lord Said who spent a fortune to help this cripple stand up again. In order to repay Lord Said, he chose to join Asara's Guard to protect Asara!"

Roy also vividly fabricated a rather tragic backstory for Red Wolf on the spot. This not only stunned Red Wolf and Wei Long, but also made the squad leader, after hearing Red Wolf's "tragic" backstory, unable to help but come up to Red Wolf, pat him on the shoulder, and comfort him:

“Brother, you’re a real man, so don’t worry. We will definitely drive that damned Hafk out of Asara. And if you ever don’t want to stay with Said anymore, you can come to Lord Reis’s side. Let me tell you this: Lord Reis will definitely become the new emperor of Asara. The sooner you follow Lord Reis, the sooner you can enjoy the good life.”

After speaking, the squad leader pointed out some newly built areas in Bakshi to the three of them. Then he turned and left. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief after the squad leader left.

"Wow, Roy, you're something else! You're really good at making up stories. After listening to you, I thought I was really that miserable."

Red Wolf punched Roy in the chest. The backstory this guy fabricated was too tragic, but the logic was so reasonable that even Red Wolf couldn't find any fault with it.

"Hmph, that's right. Don't you know who I am? I'm a diplomat from the Secret Service, okay? Fooling an uneducated soldier like Asara is a piece of cake."

Roy raised his head and said with a proud look, "Just kidding. I'm just not good at fighting, but I have the most powerful brain. I've already thought it through. If that squad leader doesn't recognize Said's crossbow, I'm going to start using Reis to fool him. You know, my brain is pretty awesome."

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. Let's go, let's go check that out. My sixth sense tells me we're going to have a big shipment today."

The three continued on their way, and a few minutes later, they arrived at their destination.

"See? I told you my sixth sense is amazing, right? I found the nest right away. We haven't seen the rocket soldier guarding this place yet. Hurry up and take it out."

The three of them stared at the pile of bird nests in front of them with shining eyes, their mouths practically watering. You see, the suspension of this activity for the past few days had really made Weilong and Red Wolf craving it.

Dragon was after the golden bird eggs he had been longing for, while Red Wolf was simply addicted to the joy of raiding bird nests. You should know that he had never touched a bird nest before, but he became completely addicted after the last time he did.

"Come on, Dragon, you pick four first, then Red Wolf and I will each pick three. You can choose carefully."

Roy also said, "Sigh, considering how bad Wei Long's luck is, the three of them agreed in the car that if they find a bird's nest, Wei Long should pick four first, okay? After all, to be honest, Wei Long's luck... it's like he's eliminating the bad ones for them."

"Hmph, my sixth sense tells me I'm going to make a big shipment today. You'll see, I'm sure I'll get my hands on a golden bird egg."

Looking at the two people behind him who were giving him a mocking look, Wei Long also pouted indignantly, indicating that he was also incredibly strong today.

"Alright, alright, Wang Yuhao has the best luck. You'd better hurry up and choose. I can't wait any longer."

Red Wolf chuckled, thinking that with his good bro Dragon eliminating four bad options for him, his chances of getting a good item would greatly increase. He wondered if getting a golden bird egg would just give Dragon another shock.

Red Wolf: Sigh, if that were the case, I would truly be a sinful man.

"I've made my choice, I'll take these four."

Wei Long carefully selected four bird nests, while the other nests were divided equally between Red Wolf and Roy.

"I'm starting!" ×3

After shouting, the three of them started digging into the bird nests in front of them.

A moment later, Red Wolf and Roy exclaimed in surprise.

"Holy crap, I got a golden bird egg!"

Roy stared wide-eyed at the golden bird egg in his hand. Was he kidding? He had only said that he had a good sixth sense, but he didn't expect it to actually produce a result!

"Holy crap, a pocket watch and a gold brick! What incredible luck! I've found two gold bricks already!"

Meanwhile, Red Wolf on the other side took out his spoils and exclaimed in surprise.

Chapter 374 Colorful Bird Eggs (3)

The two silently looked at the spoils in each other's hands, and finally turned their gazes to Wei Long, who had been silently rummaging through the bird's nest.

Red Wolf/Roy: Oh no, I got too excited and didn't control myself. I hope I didn't upset Dragon. Speaking of which, look at how quiet Dragon is... Could it be that he didn't get any shipments again?

But considering Weilong's usual luck, it seems like not shipping any items is the norm.

"Weilong, what do you say? Don't be discouraged if it's not there. We can always go to another place to check, like Changgong Valley. Don't be too sad."

Roy immediately went to Wei Long's side to comfort him. It would be bad if he lost his temper, but who could have imagined that he and Red Wolf would have such explosive luck?

"Where's the goods? There's only one bird's nest left. You two, stay away from me. You've probably sucked all my good fortune away."

Seeing Wei Long still stubbornly digging into the bird's nest, Roy and Red Wolf silently retreated to the side. Sigh, they hoped their success wouldn't discourage Wei Long, otherwise... he might really burst out laughing. (●ˇ?ˇ●)

"Hey, what if Wei Long pulls another cow horn out of the bird's nest later? I don't even know how to comfort him. Maybe you should just sell yourself a PG."

Seeing that Dragon had suddenly stopped moving, Red Wolf said to Roy beside him, "It seems that Dragon is going to be sent to the air force again. Let Roy sacrifice himself again."

"Go to hell! Why do you have to come to me again? You can go by yourself. Didn't I say before that I would look for another bird's nest? You think you're so smart? You've got to show off."

Roy also gave Red Wolf the middle finger. That Red Wolf is really cunning now. Even though his butt is much bigger than Roy's, he always likes to bully Roy with that idiot Wei Long.

"This...this means the goods have been shipped?"

Just as the two started arguing quietly behind him, Wei Long silently picked up the shiny bird egg in his hand. The colorful bird egg shone brightly in the sunlight.

After seeing Wei Long pull a shiny bird egg out of the nest, the two people arguing behind him stopped arguing and looked over at Wei Long.

"What? Let me see! What's that flashing so brightly?"

Roy quickly teleported to Weilong's side, then stared blankly at the colorful bird egg in Weilong's hand.

"Wow... Wow, Dragon, you've released a super big one! Just looking at the design and the bird egg, it's definitely not ordinary."

Red Wolf followed closely behind, and upon seeing the bird egg, he displayed the same expression as Roy.

"Wow, you're something else. It seems like you've just been saving up all your luck for this one time. Judging by this, it could be considered a hidden gem."

Wei Long slowly recovered from his daze, and then looked at the colorful bird egg in his hand with excitement. He had found it in the bird's nest himself. If anyone dared to say that he had bad luck, he would throw this bird egg at their face.

"I........ I did it! I found something amazing on my own! This must be the rarest thing I've ever found before. I've never even seen a bird egg like this before. This bird egg is so beautiful!"

After stomping his feet excitedly for a while, Taiyuan decided to take his "trophy" back to the Special Operations Department first. Now he could say he was truly standing up for himself. He planned to put the bird egg in the most conspicuous place in his room so he could see the colorful bird egg every morning when he woke up.

"Let's go, let's get back to the Special Operations Unit. I'm going to show that Uluru guy a thing or two. He was mocking me before. I'll make him put on his tactical goggles and see what a true lucky guy looks like!"

Seeing Wei Long walking excitedly ahead, Roy and Red Wolf exchanged a glance and followed with a smile. Poor Wei Long, he finally got the guaranteed reward. Luckily, he got such a dazzling bird egg this time, otherwise, he probably would have even raided Said's bird nest.

"Wuhu! I'm back! Where's Uluru? Come and face me, the Dragon King!"

Upon returning to the Special Operations Department, Wei Long immediately began to boast. Seeing his imposing manner, everyone cast curious glances his way. Even Mai Xiaowen, who had been bullying Zhang Hao, stopped her "criminal behavior" to see what new tricks Wei Long could come up with.

"What are you yelling about? Aren't you afraid of getting elbowed by Deep Blue? Why did you call me down? To see your backpack full of bull horns and girls?"

Uluru rubbed his sleepy eyes and came down from the second floor. This dragon was really too noisy. He was thinking of not having to go on patrol this morning, but he accidentally drank too much last night and was still a bit dazed.

"Hmph, bull horns? Those things no longer appear in my backpack. Come on, today I, King Mighty Dragon, will show you what a lucky guy from the Special Operations Department really is."

Seeing Uluru come down, Veelong stopped hiding his intentions and took off the backpack he was carrying. Then, he began to proudly rummage through it.

Uluru: Something's not right, something feels really wrong. Judging from his posture, could it be that he really sold out today?

"Brother Weilong, did you manage to touch the golden bird egg you've been longing for today?"

Zhang Hao couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. Seeing how confident Brother Wei Long was, it seemed he was preparing to show off in front of Uncle Uluru.

Amidst the commotion, even Deep Blue, who was in the kitchen, was drawn out. After briefly understanding the situation, Deep Blue curiously watched what Wei Long could take out of his bag.

"Come on, take a good look! My pride! A super, incredibly awesome, dazzling bird egg!"

Without further ado, Wei Long took out the colorful bird egg he had found earlier that day from his bag.

These words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Uluru, you better watch out! I'm not some unlucky person. I, King Dragon, am the chosen one!"

Chapter 375 Lottery

"Wow, what is this thing? It looks pretty high-end."

Upon seeing this dazzling bird egg, everyone cast surprised glances. It wasn't a golden bird egg, but... this dazzling bird egg seemed even more impressive.

Zoya, who is always impatient, directly asked Weilong for the colorful bird egg, and Zhang Hao and the others also came over to examine it together out of curiosity.

"Uluru, you've seen my skills, haven't you? Don't ever say I'm unlucky again. This is the confidence that comes from being a lucky guy, you know?"

When Uluru saw that Veyron had actually gotten the goods, he was convinced and immediately took out an iron kettle from his waist and threw it to Veyron.

"Alright, you're really something. Since we've already shipped a large quantity, we have to send two of them out by noon."

Seeing this, Wei Long immediately gave an OK sign, indicating that he could indeed celebrate by having a couple of drinks after releasing such a wonderful product.

"Well, congratulations, Weilong. Let's all take our last day off today. Since you're not touching the bird's nest anymore, it's time to start putting our plans into action."

After speaking to Weilong, Shenlan turned and went back to the kitchen, preparing to cook several dishes to celebrate that night. After all, he had witnessed Weilong's bad luck before, and it was truly a miracle that Weilong was able to find this dazzling bird egg.

"Oh?! It's time to get started? Then I'll have to make sure to have a good drink tonight."

Everyone enjoyed a delicious and sumptuous lunch. After finishing the meal, Wei Long wiggled his hips, humming a little tune, and went back with his colorful bird egg.

After returning to his room, Zhang Hao planned to enjoy playing on the computer the day before starting his mission. After all, once the missions piled up, he didn't know when he would be able to touch the computer again.

"Hehe, I'm going to play until I'm sick of it today. I said no one can stop me... except Uncle Shenlan... Sister Zoya... Sister Luna... Sister Xiaowen... well, it seems like only Roy and Brother Weilong can't stop me. I'm going to have a blast!"

Just as Zhang Hao finished cheering and was about to start the battle, our long-absent 9527 materialized and emerged from Zhang Hao's body.

"Host, when did you become so degenerate? Shouldn't you be dedicating yourself to helping Said liberate Asara every day? Why do I get the feeling that you're just slacking off in the Special Operations Department all day long?"

Looking at 9527 in front of him, Zhang Hao picked his ear speechlessly and retorted:

"Don't give me that sarcastic comment. You've been giving me a bunch of logistical support through the daily lottery. What more do you want from me to end this situation? Besides, is liberating Asara something that can be done in a day? You need to have a long-term plan, you know? And why are you in a different body now? Remember not to bother me while I'm playing games."

Looking at Zhang Hao's fair and clean face, 9527 took two deep breaths and forcibly suppressed the urge to punch Zhang Hao. What did he mean by saying that all he gave him were logistical capabilities? Didn't he draw the lottery himself every time? Who knew he would be so lucky as to draw logistical capabilities every time?

You should know that the last time Zhang Hao acquired fighting skills, it was only after I arranged it for him. Otherwise, Zhang Hao might already be a botanist who is proficient in all kinds of plants.

Zhang Hao: Thank you. If I really choose that skill, will writing biology exams in China become as easy as drinking water?

9527: Who knows? How about we get you in here this time and see if it turns you into a biology genius?

"Hey, what kind of attitude is this? What do you mean I'll affect your game? Do you still want to participate in the lottery? I'm telling you this in advance, I'm not going to give you any special treatment this time. There are only so many skill packs, whatever you get is what you get. Don't come crying to me later."

Upon hearing 9527's words, Zhang Hao realized he hadn't drawn any new abilities this month. He put down his mouse, immediately changed into a fawning expression, and said to 9527:

"Oh dear, my dearest 9527, look at our relationship! I worked so hard to get you to level four, and you're really hurting my feelings by saying this. I don't have any requests this time, but could you please put someone with the physical abilities of Uncle Deep Blue in there?"

Seeing Zhang Hao start acting cute and affectionate again, 9527 gave him a very "human" smile, and then ruthlessly rejected him:

"That's impossible! And don't you feel any guilt when you say that? What do you mean by 'worked so hard to level up to level four for me'? Do you really think I don't know? You're just helping that [Zero] rebuild his body!"

【Zero】: (Mechanical) Hmph, woman, what do you have to compare with the bond between me and Xiao Hao? You should know that I genuinely saved Xiao Hao twice. The bond between Xiao Hao and me is unbreakable.

Hearing this, Zhang Hao awkwardly touched his nose. Oops, he'd been caught! But luckily, after spending more time with Roy, Zhang Hao's skin had thickened, and he immediately acted as if nothing had happened, saying:

"Oh, how could that be? 9527, you have to believe me! You know, the first person I met after I came into this world was you! (I already knew most of the others before they came into this world.)"

9527 was too lazy to argue with Zhang Hao anymore, so he simply produced three blind boxes and urged Zhang Hao to choose one of them quickly.

"Alright, alright, stop rambling on. I put two combat ones in there, and what you get is not up to me."
