901: Chapter 0901: Dragon Enters the Sea 901: Chapter 0901: Dragon Enters the Sea The Dragon Group Special Combat Team had constructed two bases in this world.

One of them was the base in front of them, which covered an area equivalent to several soccer fields.

It was a standardized outdoor camp, with reinforced concrete walls surrounding it.

The walls were three meters thick and ten meters high.

The exterior was full of claw marks and traces of blood that had not yet faded.

Every ten meters, a heavy machine gun was mounted for protection.

One could imagine how intense the initial battle had been.

In some places, the concrete had cracked open even three meters deep, indicating the enormous power of the Demonic Beast that had caused it.

The camp had everything: places specially designed for accommodation, for scientific research, and numerous recreational facilities.

One could even play basketball or soccer when free.

The person in charge had them stop at a temporary camp, where one could see Huaxia’s most advanced tanks and helicopters among other equipment.

A group of disciples excitedly discussed, feeling as if they were shooting a fantasy movie when talking about helicopters fighting Demons.

Long Fei was invited to the command center, where he met the high-ranking officers of the Dragon Group Special Combat Team.

The people in the room held either the rank of lieutenant general or major general—frighteningly high ranks.

Shen Feng was inside, and upon seeing him, he immediately stood up with a smile and teased, “Brother Long, last night’s adaptation at Mount Tai went smoothly, eh?”

He was young and wore the rank of a major.

Long Fei nodded in greeting to him and listened; he wasn’t surprised by the comment.

Although he had left earlier, it was easy to inquire about this matter.

He introduced Long Fei to the commanding officers present.

The one wearing the rank of lieutenant general had a powerful presence and vibrant spirit—it was Shen Feng’s father, Shen Weijun.

Elder Master Shen’s eldest son was in politics, his second son was in the military, and only his youngest son, Third Master Shen, was idly wandering in society.

Long Fei shook hands with Shen Weijun and then they sat down together at the table.

Shen Feng stood up to take his leave, “Father, I have brought the person, and now it’s time for me to leave.”

He had been here for a day and had already completed the work handover with his father.

Shen Weijun nodded, and after his son left, he addressed Long Fei, “Should I call you Brother Long or Sect Leader Long?”

He spoke with a dominance befitting the higher-ups.

His calm demeanor carried substantial power.

Long Fei calmly responded, “Either is fine, whatever Uncle Shen finds comfortable.”

He addressed Shen Weijun as uncle to foster a closer relationship.

Shen Weijun laughed heartily, “You, young man, I’ve heard about you from the third brother and father for quite some time.

They highly recommended you to me.

I had Shen Feng look for you, but you kept delaying coming over.

Now, finally, we can work together.”

Long Fei asked, “May I know what plans Uncle Shen has?”

Shen Weijun lit a cigarette and asked him, “That’s actually what I wanted to ask you.

You have stirred up such a big scene; you must be planning something, right?”

Long Fei, well-prepared, took a stack of materials from his Storage Ring and handed it to Shen Weijun.

To Shen Weijun he said, “Uncle Shen, our interests are aligned.

I came to this world to make money, planning to expand my company’s business to this world.

As for our relationship, it could be like the Western powers during the great age of maritime exploration, where private capital led the way, and the state enjoyed market dividends along with the private sector.

Of course, on some issues, we will still need national support.”

“Understood, you want to be like the East India Company?” Shen Weijun raised an eyebrow.

“That’s one way to put it,” Long Fei nodded.

Shen Weijun said, “But this world is not the Great Qing Dynasty, not the India of those times; you probably won’t have it so easy.”

Long Fei said, “Effort matters; the gates to the future world have opened.

If we do not seize this high ground, then we will let the enemy occupy it.

Whatever we do, Uncle Shen and I are doing it for the benefit of Huaxia.”

“Understood,” Shen Weijun nodded, put down the documents in his hand, and asked, “So what’s your first step?”

Long Fei, with a resolute look, said, “To thoroughly cleanse the area of Mount Tai of the Demon Clan and turn this place into our stronghold, to root ourselves firmly here.”

“What do you need us to do?” Shen Weijun was a bit skeptical; after all, they had spent so much money persisting here for so many years, and had barely secured one mountainside.

The Secret Realm of Mount Tai stretched on for thousands of miles with countless mountain peaks, home not only to the Demon Clan but also to other Sect forces.

Rooting oneself here was not an easy task.

However, Long Fei confidently said, “Uncle Shen doesn’t need to do anything, just ensure the security of our rear here.

Leave the rest to us.”

Shen Weijun and the other generals exchanged looks and nodded in agreement.

This was a no-cost transaction for them, entirely beneficial with no harm.

They would not have to contribute much but could enjoy the benefits.

Anyone who declined must have a problem in their head.

Shen Weijun said to Long Fei, “Before the competition, we promised that whoever became the Alliance Hierarch could enter the headquarters and direct the Dragon Group Special Combat Team.

This condition still holds.”

“Thank you, Uncle Shen,” Long Fei politely nodded and asked, “Is there anything else, Uncle Shen?”

“Nothing else,” Shen Weijun shook his head and stood to see him off, “Long Fei, I think you don’t need to rush; you could steadily develop, or cooperate with some Sect to develop here too.”

Long Fei stood and smiled, “Cooperating with them would be like bargaining with a tiger, Uncle Shen must know that well.”

Since he had made his decision, Shen Weijun said nothing more.

After seeing Long Fei off, he returned to the command room.

Someone wondered, “Commander, why do I feel this young man is unreliable?”

“Right, he talks too big.

Not to mention other places, just the forces around Mount Tai, with just his ragtag troops, how could he sweep this place?”

None of the high-ranking officials in the command room believed in Long Fei.

Shen Weijun, however, smiled casually, “As the dragon enters the sea, one must let them try, right?

Let’s just do our own jobs well, but I am quite anticipating what this young man will do.”

The others shook their heads, not sharing his optimism.

After everyone dispersed, they continued with their routine tasks.

The only change was that the state had decided to give the Dragon Group forces a bit more time, finally not having to withdraw from here altogether.

After Long Fei returned, Chu Feng and others immediately approached him to ask about the decision from above.

Lin Yingying was especially anxious, “Long Fei, did they agree to our plan?”

Long Fei smiled and said, “They agreed, and they even said they’d give me a wife, which I declined.”

“Get out!” Lin Yingying kicked him as everyone burst into laughter.

With this promise, they were relieved.

From now on, Lin’s Group would become a legitimate company entering this world.

The Rat Sect that Long Fei had earlier taken over would no longer have to conduct business covertly and could soon transform into a regular trade consortium.
