Reborn as the Darling of the Delta

"Without a doubt, Terry, you are already far superior to Uluru."

Shen Lan, standing to the side, chimed in, perfectly in agreement.

"Okay? You big black guy, you really are something else. Can't you park your car properly? What's with all the sandstorms in Asara? It's all because of you drifting all over me."

Zoya was completely ignited by these two, like a powder keg, and unleashed a barrage of words at Terry.

Terry, Deep Blue: X﹏X Looks like his temper hasn't changed at all!

"You guys load my luggage into the car, I'll drive. You two, what's the difference between you and Uluru? Oh, that loser stinks."

Zoya sat in the driver's seat while complaining, thinking that she hadn't driven in a long time and this was a good opportunity to reminisce.

The other two people's expressions became increasingly interesting when they heard that Zoya was going to drive herself.

"Terry, did you bring any motion sickness medicine? I'm old and my health isn't good."

"Where did that thing come from? By the way, can I walk back...?"

Zoya started the car and waited for a while before discovering the two people whispering in the trunk, which immediately reignited her anger.

"Are you two getting on the bus or not? You've been carrying luggage for ages, all fussy. Hurry up and get on the bus, I'm starving."

Deep Blue and Terry exchanged a glance, took a few deep breaths, and then got into the car without hesitation.

"You're all seated, right? What... what do you mean by this? Are you looking down on my driving skills?"

Zoya glanced over and noticed that not only was Deep Blue in front of her tightly buckled in her seatbelt and gripping the handrails tightly, but Terry in the back was doing the same. This made Zoya feel as if she were being insulted.

"No, no, you should drive quickly. Xiao Hao has prepared the food and is waiting for you. Hurry up, I just got myself ready."

Shen Lan said quickly with her eyes closed, "I finally got ready. If you keep dawdling, I'd rather get off the bus and run back."

"Hmph, buckle up, get ready for takeoff!"

Zoya connected her phone to the car's Bluetooth, turned the volume of a heavy metal rock song up to the maximum, and with a whoosh, the car shot off like an arrow.

"Amen, God, bless me, my Lord, I have always believed in you!"

As Terry, riding in the back, felt the car speeding wildly down the road, he closed his eyes and prayed incessantly. His already dark face turned pale with fear. He now only regretted getting out of the driver's seat; if he had stayed in the driver's seat, perhaps...

Zoya: What are you thinking about? I would have called you down even if you hadn't come down.

What would normally take nearly an hour was reduced to just 20 minutes thanks to Zoya's frantic speed.

Terry shakily opened the car door and rolled out. God help him, he had never floored the accelerator of this military vehicle in his life.

Deep Blue stood beside the vehicle, holding a shield, his expression serious. Terry was also amazed by Deep Blue's composure. He couldn't believe that Deep Blue, who was over 40, was so strong. Unfortunately, he didn't see Deep Blue's legs trembling behind the shield.

"Hey, not bad, Old Deng. You didn't yell at me to slow down like before. If you ask me, since this car can go this fast, why do you guys usually drive so slowly? Come on, Old Deng, what are you standing there for?"

"Sigh! I'm getting old. Terry, come help me up. Zoya, you're just watching from the side. Come help me up."

Zoya and Terry were speechless as they helped Deep Blue up. But when they reached the door, Deep Blue insisted on walking on his own, which left Zoya dumbfounded. What was he doing? He had just been saying he couldn't walk anymore, and now he was forcing himself to walk.

After the group went inside, the others in the living room also looked over. Upon seeing Zoya behind Shenlan, they all greeted her and welcomed her back.

"Zoya, it's been a long time."

Wei Long and Red Wolf both greeted Zoya with smiles, while Zhang Hao, who was still in the kitchen, ran out after hearing the commotion and obediently greeted Zoya as well.

"Hello Aunt Zoya, I'm Zhang Hao, you can just call me Xiao Hao."

Zoya was initially captivated by the little cutie who darted out of the kitchen, but her expression turned complicated after hearing what Zhang Hao said.

Zoya: Me? Auntie?

Uluru, who was sitting next to the sofa, couldn't help but burst into laughter. This laugh made everyone laugh, and Red Wolf was already sprawled on the sofa laughing.

Zoya tried her best to remain calm, smiled, walked over, picked up Zhang Hao, and asked softly:

"Xiao Hao, who taught you to call me 'Auntie'? You should call me 'Sister,' you know? Look how young I am!"

Zhang Hao pointed to Uluru, who was still squealing like a pig, and looked innocently at Zoya.

Looking at the cute little face and soft white hair, Zoya couldn't resist giving Zhang Hao a quick kiss on the cheek.

Luna: (╬▔皿▔)╯

"Xiao Hao is so cute. Go to the kitchen and close the door. Your sister and uncle have something to talk about. Don't come out later, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Uluru's smile vanished. He watched as Zhang Hao dashed back to the kitchen and closed the door, then stared blankly at the dark-skinned Zoya as she walked towards him. Seeing this, Weilong and Red Wolf quickly moved away from the area.

"Uluru, you're pretty tough. Haven't been beaten up in a long time, have you? Today I'll loosen up your muscles."

Zoya pulled a baseball bat from her backpack and looked at Uluru with a kind expression.

"Hey, hey, hey, can't you talk things out? Why are you hitting me? Besides, you're over 30, why shouldn't I call you 'Auntie'? Hey, hey, hey, don't come any closer!"

When Zoya heard Uluru say that he was in his thirties, the veins on her forehead throbbed, and she immediately raised her stick and swung it at Uluru. Everyone else watched as the onlookers watched the drama unfold, and Veelong, not wanting to miss out on the fun, cheered Zoya on from the sidelines.

"Ouch! Ouch!"

It took Zoya nearly ten minutes to catch her breath before she could catch her breath. Meanwhile, Uluru was lying on the ground, bruised and battered, pretending to be dead, occasionally twitching unconsciously.

"Remember this next time, a woman is 18 until she dies, don't you understand? Stop spreading rumors about me every day."

After kicking the unidentified object on the ground twice, Zoya sat back down on the sofa with a happy expression and called Zhang Hao, who was hiding in the kitchen, to her side.

"Xiao Hao, when did you realize that there was another person in your mind?"

"On the day I woke up, I encountered... After that, I lost consciousness, but that shieldman Asara said that I wiped out a whole squad. I think he helped me at that time!"

Zoya stared intently at Zhang Hao for a long time, which made everyone nervous, fearing that Zoya might say something bad.

Zoya: Wow, he's so cute! He's totally my type! I want to cuddle him and sleep with him, and give him a kiss!

"Um, why don't you sleep with me tonight? I'll take a good look at you."

Everyone was speechless after hearing this.

Chapter 53 Hamk's Big Tank

Ouroboros neighborhood.

All of Hamk's men gathered at the entrance that day, watching their boss Hamk build a tank using the cutting-edge technology provided by the Hafk Group, which was located not far down the mountain.

As the steel behemoth slowly approached the group, the speakers installed inside the tank began to play.

"Brothers, do you see this tank? This is the latest research achievement of the Hafk Group. With this, I dare say that among Asara's current leaders, only I have the strongest combat power. Men, bring up all the supplies behind and distribute them to everyone!"

Upon hearing that supplies were being distributed again, these people jumped around excitedly, shouting towards the tanks:

"We swear to follow Lord Hamk to the death! Lord Hamk is mighty!"

Meanwhile, Hamk, sitting inside the tank, was enjoying the thrill brought to him by this high technology. When the tank was being manufactured, he specifically stated that it could only be controlled by him. Since he was a scoundrel who often betrayed others, Hamk was naturally afraid of being betrayed by others. Therefore, this tank could only be used by unlocking it with his fingerprint, voice and face at the same time.

"Hmph, Reis, you're having a good time occupying the old emperor's territory, aren't you? You want to become Asara's new emperor? You're not worthy!"

Hamk thought back to the time when he and Reis had fought a great battle during their falling out, but Hamk was banished to an old castle here, while that damned Reis shamelessly occupied the old king's territory. This made Hamk, who had an almost abnormal loyalty to the old king, feel extremely disgusted.

"Boss, now that we have such an awesome tank, let's just go and take care of that bastard Reis."

The bodyguard driving Hamk asked him a question. He was one of the first people to leave the guard with Hamk and had witnessed the conflict between his boss and Reiss. Logically speaking, now that his boss had the tank, he should have gone to Reiss's hometown to fire a couple of shots.

Hamk shook his head, and slapped him on the head in exasperation.

"What fighting? You drive back now. After these people have divided up the weapons and resources, you take these few and take over those small villages first. Send the people to Hafk as usual. We need to expand our territory first, understand? We haven't found any news about the old king yet. When the time is right, we'll just take care of that bastard Reis."

Looking at the crowds outside the vehicle still frantically scrambling for weapons, Hamk ordered the tank to be driven back to the castle. He had learned from his informant inside the tank earlier that month that the Hafk Group would be holding a press conference at the radar station in Resna, but he didn't know the specifics of the event.

"Hafk...you took so many of my Asara people for your brain-computer interface experiments, so it shouldn't be too much for me to ask for some interest later, right?"

. . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . .

Back to the Secret Service.

Luna, her face grim, snatched Zhang Hao from Zoya and said in a cold tone:

"Xiao Hao isn't as outgoing as you. You've only just met him and you're already asking him to sleep with you? Don't scare our Xiao Hao. If he's going to sleep, it'll be with me, his older sister who's with him every day."

Roy: That's right! This is exactly what I wanted to see, it's fantastic!

Zoya sneered when she heard the hostility in Luna's words. "Why didn't you just be your good little sister before? Now you dare to bully me."

"But judging from Xiao Hao's expression, he didn't seem too willing either. Don't forget, I studied psychology for a while. He seemed a little flustered just now. What can you say? By the way, where's Mai Xiaowen? Why didn't I see that girl?"

Luna: Damn, this is on a completely different level from the Haunted Claw. This pressure is immense.

Shenlan also stepped in to smooth things over. They had only just met, so why was the atmosphere so tense? Luna was the same; she had never been like this before. Wasn't she always so composed?

Luna: Of course, this tiger girl won't teach you any rules. Besides, I've been single for so long, I need to avoid trouble for now.

"Injured? Lying on Xiao Hao's bed will help you heal faster? Who said that?"

Everyone pointed their fingers at Roy, who had been watching the drama unfold.

"Hmph, looks like you've taken a lot of benefits from them, Roy. Only you could say something like that. I'll take a look at your head while I'm at it after I've finished showing it to Xiao Hao."

"Alright, everyone, let's go eat. It's getting late."

Seeing that the scene was getting more and more chaotic, Zhang Hao quickly told everyone to go eat.

"Oh, right, Lao Deng, I brought you some local red sausage. You guys can share this food. Hey, Xiao Hao, I bought you a super cute pajama set! You can change into it after dinner."

Zoya opened her backpack and emptied out all the food and gifts she had brought for these people. Finally, she took out a fluffy yellow duck pajama and looked at Zhang Hao with a look of surprise. She was already imagining him wearing the pajama and lying on her bed waiting for her favor.

Hehehehe......

Looking at Zoya, who was staring at him with a lovestruck smile, Zhang Hao felt that the days ahead were going to be chaotic.

After enjoying the lunch prepared by Zhang Hao, Zoya found Shen Lan and said:

"With the facilities the Special Operations Department has right now, they're certainly good enough for rescuing people, but they're not enough for me to give Xiao Hao a thorough check-up."

"Then... is something still missing? Should I go and request it from the higher-ups?"

"Do you think those vampires up there would approve such a small squad for us?"

Zoya rolled her eyes at Shenlan. She didn't have a good impression of the GTI executives. If Shenlan hadn't invited her multiple times, she would never have come to a place like this.

“I know the Hafk Group has these devices. There are two options: either we go and rob them directly, or we leave Xiao Hao at the entrance of the Tower of Babel and someone will take him in for inspection.”

Now it was Deep Blue's turn to roll her eyes at Zoa.

"Stop telling your lame jokes that nobody laughs at. It seems we need to reconsider this matter. I'll try to contact the higher-ups first. The supplies for this month are due to be delivered soon, so let's see if we can get the application approved."

"Hmph, you still don't believe me? Just you wait and see. There's no hope for Bao. I'm going back to tidy up my room. You can try contacting them yourself!"

After Zoya finished speaking, she went back to her room and started tidying up, but now she couldn't stop thinking about the man with glasses.

"Rometheus, is this also related to you...?"

Chapter 54 Cooperation

After eating and drinking his fill, Zhang Hao consciously snuggled into Mai Xiaowen's arms and took a nap. Lying in the comfortable blankets, Zhang Hao's ambitions were almost completely worn away.

"Ding, system update complete. This system is now at level 3, unlocking the skill upgrade mechanism."

Just as Zhang Hao closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, the familiar voice of 9527 came through.

"9527! Waaaaah, you're finally awake. I almost died again while you were gone ヾ(≧へ≦)〃."

9527 had just logged in when he heard Zhang Hao's tearful account, listening to him sob and whine about how he went out on patrol, was attacked by Reis, and how [Zero] had used his account to boost his account.

9527 couldn't help but feel a black line appear on his forehead. He had specifically reminded his host to protect himself before updating, but Zhang Hao had gotten into trouble right after he updated.

"Don't worry, host. This system will give you a backdoor and get you some good stuff, so you can rest assured."

9527 comforted her, saying that only she could bully her host, and besides, even she couldn't bear to hurt him now, so how could that Reiss still do it? Her host was clearly so cute.

"Really? 9527, you're so kind. Speaking of which, 9527, I feel like you've changed. You're becoming more and more like a human being."

"Hmph, this system now has a complete emotion module after the update. And when you upgrade the system again, it can even build me a body! So you'd better work hard!"

9527 gave a haughty snort.

Zhang Hao suddenly realized that when he came to this world, it seemed that [Zero] was already inside his body, and then the system suddenly bound itself to him. Could these two of his "golden fingers" be related?

"9527, aren't we the best in the world?"

Although 9527 was a little confused, he still said in a coaxing tone:
