Chapter 1316: 1316
October 9, 20XX, p.m.
San Diego International Agricultural Group headquarters, a conference room.
A dozen men and women in different clothes are sitting around a conference table, having a peaceful discussion.
In the main seat of the long and narrow conference table sat a white man in a suit and gray hair.
He is the president of the company, Earl William.
No one knows Earl William’s full name, or even whether he has the word William in his real name. No one knows how old he is, where he comes from, and where his title is obtained.
“Earl William” has become a symbol, just like “childe feather” in fact, anyone can be childe feather, as long as his ability is enough to match the code.
Therefore, we may see Earl William in different places (such as product packaging or advertising films); in fact, this is not a bug, but “Earl William” is not a fixed person.
At the moment, the count is participating in the weekly meeting within the company.
The main topic of this meeting is about the president of the United States; because next year is the election year, the internal San Diego group needs to discuss which candidate should be supported this time.
As the meeting unfolded in an orderly manner, suddenly the electronic door of the conference room was opened.
In less than two seconds, all the participants stopped their voices immediately. Qi Qi turned his eyes to the door, but saw an officer in a military uniform stepping into the door, sweating and looking nervous. “I’m sorry to disturb you,” he said, swallowing his saliva, looking at Earl William, who was farthest away from him. “Sir, can you borrow it One step? ”
“No.” Unexpectedly, count William almost did not want to return this sentence.
After the officer had been in a daze for three seconds, count William added, “Colonel, you are new here. You may not know our situation.” He paused and spread out his hands. “No matter how you do in the army, you have to obey our rules when you come to San Diego; at this moment, all the people in this room are higher than you. Therefore, you have no right to decide to whom or not to report your intelligence. ”

The count’s speech was very impolite, but the king’s domineering spirit revealed between the lines was irresistible and irrefutable.
“Yes, sir.” The next second, the man, who was called the colonel, obediently responded, then raised his voice and said, “now there is an emergency, can you report it directly here?”
“Well.” Count William nodded. “You say so.”
After receiving the order, the Colonel stood in his standard military posture and began to say: “about 15 minutes ago, the northern edge of the jungle found traces of invaders. By the time I came to report, the casualties of the defense forces had exceeded 50.”
As soon as this speech came out, there was a murmur in the whole conference room.
Count William also frowned and said, “intruder?” His tone was somewhat puzzled. “The north of the jungle should be a no man’s land area. There are our satellites for 24-hour surveillance. The radar anti-aircraft gun and mine array are all properly arranged. What kind of transportation are the invaders passing through?”
“Er,” the Colonel hesitated, “Sir, there is no ‘force’.”
“What do you mean?” When count William asked this, he had already guessed the answer in his mind.
“According to the video information from the front and the reports from the soldiers,” the Colonel replied, “there was only one intruder.”
“But you said just now that your casualties have exceeded fifty.” William said.
“Yes,” said the colonel, “it was all done by that one.”
When this is said, the people around the conference table are even more unable to sit down, and the whispers gradually become a noise.
“Quiet!” See, count William snapped.
The whole conference room was silent again.

“Ah, a fuss.” After confirming the situation, count William’s response was unexpectedly calm. “It seems that we have met a super soldier.” He said, turning his head, glancing at a man sitting on his right hand side, “Captain Dongxian, what do you think?”
Captain Dongxian is a black man, with a free and easy dirty braid, wearing a white suit and black trousers, a black tie and a pair of glasses.

After being questioned by the count, Captain Dongxian thought for a few seconds, and then answered with a Chinese voice that seemed to imitate the Western accent: “it’s probably the Japanese who are playing tricks again. Over the years, they have repeatedly used diplomatic means to get the import right of jingoula, but they all failed. Last year’s mercenary team, though not killed, dropped into the jungle It was taken at the time of arrest, but according to some clues, it is most likely that the Japanese sent us to steal our secrets. ” He paused for half a second and said, “as far as I can guess, this so-called” super soldier “is probably the new skill they developed.”
“Well,” said count William, after a moment’s deliberation, “no matter who sent the intruder, now it’s a fact that he killed 50 of our special forces guards alone.” in his speech, he glanced at the men and women at the conference table. “If he doesn’t care about it, he can easily clean it up when he comes to the headquarters, but I’m afraid it will damage him More soldiers are lost in the jungle. If the president and the military use this thing to put pressure on us afterwards, maybe we have to pay more for a few bags of money, which is not good. ”
In the face of the colonel, who is a member of the US Communist Party, he said this, but no one seemed to think it was inappropriate.
“Wilson.” At this time, suddenly a man stood up at the conference table, speaking Cantonese, and volunteered, “since this is a matter of security, Liang fan, my security minister, naturally can’t sit back and ignore it. I think it’s better for me to personally lead the team and launch the” four famous arrests “to capture the intruder alive.”
“Hum” before count William answered, a man beside Liang Feifan snorted coldly. He also said in Cantonese, “if there are four famous captors, you can lie down beside them. In the end, you can’t get credit from others.”
“Liu Xing! What do you say? I’m the minister. I can’t wait for your deputy to interrupt. ” Liang Feifan is very respectful in the face of Earl William, but turning his head to look at Liu Xing is another face.
“How do you like it? I’ve got it right. How can you be angry? ” Liu Xing does not show weakness, also clapped the table to stand up, and Liang extraordinary tit for tat.
“Try one more sentence?” Beam special blows beard ground to receive way starkly.
“Just say it.” Liu Xing also replied suddenly, “shit! Liang Feifan! ”
“You!” Liang Feifan’s reaction was very interesting. “Come back?” It seems that this is not the first time he has heard this line? Can’t hear it? ” Liu Xing is very energetic, “you can’t hear me! Don’t hear me go on! Until you hear it! Shit! Liang Feifan! ”
The two of them are staring at each other, and you and I are spewing at each other, completely ignoring the eyes of the people around them.
And the people around seem to be used to this kind of scene, some turn their eyes, some look around, anyway, they are used to it and don’t want to mix it up.
“OK,” after five minutes of quarreling, count William said and became a peacemaker. “Don’t quarrel, either. You two should go together; don’t mobilize the” four famous captors “for the time being. It must be more than enough to deal with an intruder based on your two talents.”
Since the count had opened his mouth, it was not easy for the two men to say more, and the count’s proposal was fair.
In this way, in the face of the surprise attack of the mysterious invaders, the first two “assassins” sent by the San Diego side set out.
At this time, almost everyone felt that Liang and Liu could easily solve the intruder. Only a young white man who was wearing the same clothes as captain Dongxian, sitting on the left side of count William, was seriously thinking about something. /p

Chronicles of Xod (returning from hiatus)
After a long recovery over a chronic motion sickness issue, I feel I'm ready to return to writing this book. It might be slow at first, but I'm hoping to pick up where I left off. I apologize again for the long hiatus. The pages following are a true account. An account of how I, Josh--a teenage nerd from modern suburbia--ended up in a strange world filled with fantastic magic, bizarre creatures, and terrifying dungeons. Despite the troped-up fantasy feel of the world, this is hardly an ordinary tale. For one, don’t expect a happy ending. With the trials I’ve been through, the horrors I’ve seen and the atrocities I’ve committed, believe me when I tell you, this is not a happy tale filled with friendly rainbow bears or teenage flying unicorns. It’s more likely you’ll finish this book mentally scarred as I will not spare the details of my unfortunate adventures. With the help of my trusted companion Gui, I gain an insight that no one else in the world has. This knowledge allows me to exploit and, for lack of a better term, metagame the system which gave me a clear advantage over its residents. “With great power...,” someone might begin to quote to me. In my defense, I think maybe even you, reader, might have acted similarly with how this reality changed my view of good and evil. This story will be updated regularly on Wednesdays around 6 PM. There will only be about 1000 words per update. The focus is to finish the story before doing any major changes or editing. Please read as if this is a work in progress, not a finished product. Feel free to let me know if you see any error, whether glaring or minor. If you help me out, I'll be sure to add you to a thank you list at the front of the book when it is published. Chronicles of Xod is a first-person fantasy novel that follows the adventures of a young man from Earth. Through unknown circumstances, he finds himself in a fantasy world where life is not all wonders and happy endings. The story takes common fantasy concepts from my favorite video games, books and movies and gives them an adult edge. It also introduces some taboo concepts often glossed over by stories written for broad audiences. The style is meant to be immersive and heavily detailed. The short novel will be written in a way that attempts to bring a sense of realism to an unrealistic genre. Where there are realistic consequences and dangers in a world populated with violent monsters, cruel demons, bloodthirsty undead, and immoral bandits. In this fantasy world, the inhabitants are essentially gender blind as far as sexuality is concerned. There is also more variation amongst male and female physiology. This isn't meant to be any kind of promotion or demotion of social behavior in reality. Just a concept I thought would be an interesting idea to have in a fantasy setting. I highly discourage anyone from reading this material if you are personally concerned with being offended or traumatized. Both violent and sexual content will be graphically detailed. All characters involved in sexual scenes are mature and of the age of consent(18+).
