Chapter 1922: The Mysterious Commander Lin

Hearing this response, everyone in front of the screens fell silent.

"What the hell?!?!"

After a moment, someone finally reacted, their eyes widening in shock.

"We?" The reporter also stood frozen, "You mean... the Great Xia Night Watch?"

"Yes, but not only... also the Great Xia gods." Yu Le walked as he spoke calmly, "We lay dormant in the mist for a hundred years, then within ten years, the Night Watch and the Great Xia gods worked together to exterminate all god kingdoms in the world... That's how the foreign territories you see today came to be."

"Great Xia gods? They actually exist?! Where are they??"

"Of course. Our Great Xia Heavenly Court is also a top-tier divine kingdom in this world. However, the Heavenly Court has encountered some matters and is now in a deep slumber. That's why current Great Xia is only guarded by the Night Watch..."

As his words fell, Yu Le glanced at the worried crowd and smiled,

"But don't worry too much. Under Commander Lin's leadership, the Night Watch's current strength is no weaker than the Heavenly Court back then..."

"Commander Lin?" The reporter caught this key point, "Is that the Supreme Commander of the Great Xia Night Watch?"

"That's right. More precisely, he is the seventh Supreme Commander of the Great Xia Night Watch... and the strongest commander in history." Speaking of Commander Lin, a glimmer of admiration appeared in Yu Le's eyes. He stretched out his hand, pointing toward the thirteen divine corpses nailed to crosses standing on the outer wall of Sunken Dragon Pass,

"Do you see those divine corpses?"

"I see them... Did Commander Lin kill all of those?"

"No. Those are the results of the 'Divine Hunt Plan' that Commander Lin initiated after taking office, leading the entire Night Watch to eliminate them... This was an unprecedented feat in the Night Watch's history. Of course, if Commander Lin had acted personally, these thirteen would have been far from enough..."

The reporter's shock caused his jaw to drop...

"Beyond that, Commander Lin also dispersed the mist. Not to mention that Mr. Shen went to the foreign territories to rescue you, that Hu Jia blocked the Great Dream Pupil Realm, and your evacuation plan—all the Night Watch forces were mobilized across the regions, with special squads dispatched to suppress 'Mystery' uprisings... All of these were arranged by Commander Lin.

Commander Lin has always stood at the very top of this chessboard, watching over everything, propelling everything... You may not be able to see his figure, but behind every event, there will always be his shadow."

As Yu Le's words fell, everyone from the exploration team fell into a brief moment of silence.

After hearing Yu Le's description, they couldn't help but form an image in their minds—a figure draped in a crimson cloak, powerful and mysterious...

The same was true for those in front of their screens.

"So this commander... his surname is Lin?" Zhao Zhengbin couldn't help but look at the video of the one-blade clearing a city again. By now, the video's view count had surpassed six hundred million. It seemed Yu Le's few words had pushed everyone's curiosity about this Commander Lin to its peak.

[Just came from the livestream, can't help but watch it again]

[Livestream +1]

[I looked closely again... Don't you think this silhouette looks a bit familiar?]

[Yes yes yes, I also feel like it resembles the Six-Winged Seraph... (Attached a photo of Lin Qiye as Six-Winged Seraph)]

[Dude, this can't be the same person, right?]

[Isn't it said that only two people in the Night Watch wear crimson cloaks? One is the Six-Winged Gray Seraph, the other is the Six-Winged White Seraph... Holy crap, that makes so much sense!]

[When can we see Commander Lin make his move? I have a feeling he's stronger than anyone we've seen so far]

[No kidding, Yu Le already said he's the strongest Supreme Commander in history!]

[But I still think the Black-Cloaked God of the Mind, Hu Jia, is stronger... Communicating with 360 million people simultaneously, and rescuing them all safely. I can't imagine what kind of person could be more powerful than that]

[Commander Lin is definitely strong, but I'm Team Mr. Shen this round {舔}! Mr. Shen is so handsome!!]

[...]

Commander Lin is the Six-Winged White Seraph?

Zhao Zhengbin suddenly understood... No wonder they hadn't seen the White Seraph until now—he was actually Commander Lin, the one controlling everything behind the scenes!

In the livestream, the reporter continued asking,

"So, ever since the mist descended, the Night Watch has been secretly protecting us?"

"Even longer than that." Yu Le spoke slowly, "From the Bureau of Evil Suppression, to Special Operations Group 139, to the Night Watch... Strictly speaking, our history can be traced back two thousand years."

"Two thousand years ago??"

"Yes... But I'm not very familiar with matters that far back. I've only been in the Night Watch for three years." Yu Le sighed, "However, if you want to know about recent events, I can tell you about them slowly."

"That would be perfect!"

The crowd followed behind Yu Le, carefully listening to his recollections—about the mist that swept the globe a hundred years ago, about how the Gods of Great Xia shattered their own cultivation to become national guardian divine steles, protecting Great Xia's territory, about the numerous divine kingdoms joining forces to pressure Great Xia, forcing them into a dire situation, about the return of the Gods of Great Xia, destroying the Egyptian Sun City, slashing through Takamagahara, annihilating Asgard...

Under Yu Le's calm tone, event after event that exceeded everyone's knowledge was exposed to the light of day.

The people living peacefully in Great Xia had never imagined what kind of history had unfolded within that gray, surging mist... They sat stunned in front of their screens, their hearts seemingly traveling back through Yu Le's narration to those difficult and dark times.

...

Vroom vroom vroom—

A helicopter landed on the storm-battered helipad.

Wu "Old Dog" draped in a black cloak, stepped off the aircraft and walked familiar paths into the command center. Shen Qingzhu and Wang Mian had already been waiting for some time.

"Is everyone here?" Wu "Old Dog" asked in surprise.

"Not yet. The Commander is coming from Shangjing and will be a bit slower." Wang Mian stood by the window, gazing at the gloomy sky outside.

"We should still make it in time... By the way, what is this terrible weather? Is Wu Quan in a bad mood?"

"None of my business." Wu Quan shrugged beside him, "It's always like this. Probably some deity made a move to stir up the celestial phenomena..."

"So, they're already arriving, then..."

Shen Qingzhu's eyes narrowed slightly. Just as he was about to say more, several fighter jets roared past overhead!

Ding ding ding—!!!!!!

A piercing alarm suddenly echoed throughout every corner of Sunken Dragon Pass. On the watchtower of Sunken Dragon Pass's outer wall, a figure draped in a dark red cloak was gripping the railing in the storm, gazing intently at a certain direction on the sea surface, anxiously speaking:

"Calling command center! Calling command center!! Enemy attack detected! Repeat! Enemy attack detected!!"

At the end of the turbulent horizon, a massive silhouette emerged from within the dark clouds. As its pair of wings flapped gently, a terrifying tsunami instantly rose, rapidly surging toward Great Xia!
