A second chance with my billionaire husband-Chapter 1569 - 308: The True Face of Lushan - Miaomiao Awakens (First Update)

The helicopter soared over the strait, like a majestic eagle flying over the boundless sea.

The sky was shrouded in dark clouds, the world was dim, and in the distant horizon, heavy black mist gathered, resembling the entrance to Hell, devouring people’s souls.

And on the vast ocean, a warship sailed, as small as a lone lantern.

The deck opened wide, and the helicopter slowly descended. A group of navy-uniformed soldiers gathered on the deck, standing neatly, their faces solemn, as if welcoming the return of a king.

A man stepped down from the helicopter, the sea breeze like a mist, lifting the strands of hair on his forehead, making his eyes appear even more profound and mysterious. The Silver Mask reflected a cold sheen on the starless and moonless sea.

The boots clattered on the deck. As a wave hit, the ship rocked slightly, but the man’s posture remained erect, seemingly unaffected by the wind and waves. His gaze swept faintly across, and wherever it passed, the soldiers instinctively stood straighter.

"Q, you’re finally back." The man in the crisp uniform said excitedly. And on that military cap, embedded was not the military emblem of any country in this world, but a purple flower, enchanting, splendid, and dazzling.

Ben, Q’s adjutant, had been by his side since childhood and was practically raised by Q. However, Q never took him when going out to sea, causing Ben to harbor resentment for a long time. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Has anything happened recently?" Q asked as he headed into the cabin.

Ben eagerly followed beside him, his young face full of vitality, "Yes, Gal and Gianna got into a fight again, this time with real firepower, resulting in two deaths. The Queen is very angry and punished them to patrol The North Sea."

The North Sea’s terrain is complex, and there are rumors of sea monsters appearing. Pirates that entered never came back. The Queen sending them there shows she is truly angry.

Q just smiled faintly. The Queen is becoming more suspicious, but if she acts too obviously, she should be careful not to shoot herself in the foot.

Ben glanced back, hesitated a moment, and asked, "The Queen’s been acting a bit odd lately. I heard she personally executed a batch of pirates recently... the sea in Blue Bay has been particularly red..." Ben said, instinctively shrinking his neck. Even though he was mentally prepared, recalling it always incited a kind of instinctive fear.

Q furrowed his brows slightly, only hearing Ben say, "Be careful when you report back, don’t touch her dragon’s reverse scale..."

"How are U and E?" Q suddenly asked.

Ben pouted, "Still the same, I don’t see any sign of remorse in the two. The Queen has her reasons for punishing them."

The warship slowly docked at the shore. Q disembarked, and Ben followed closely behind. Before getting in the car, Q gave a sweeping glance; the patrolling soldiers were much more rigorous than usual.

"Ever since Gianna and Gal’s armed conflict, the Queen has stripped them of their military command, giving it to Hailan, and has strictly ordered an increase in armed patrols. Hailan is in charge here now."

The leader of the W Legion, Vlad, was executed by the Queen after being found colluding with Parker. A newcomer took over W Legion, which doesn’t follow the rules. According to regulations, the selection of a leader must be through a professional selection tournament, where the outstanding can become leaders. Both Gianna and Gal came up this way. However, Hailan was directly promoted by the Queen, with rumors saying Hailan is the Queen’s new favorite... The rumor spreaders died mysteriously the next day, and no one dared mention it again, though thoughts varied wildly.

"Hailan?" Q furrowed his brow, having no impression of this person.

"At last year’s Holy Ceremony, someone attacked the Queen, and this person stood out to save the Queen. They’ve been serving her in the Holy Palace ever since. Previously they disappeared for a while, no one knew where they went, and came back to directly take over the W Legion. Is the Queen trying to take away Gal and Gianna’s military power?" Ben analyzed.

Q glanced at him lightly, "Don’t rashly speculate on the Queen’s thoughts."

Ben stuck out his tongue, quickly closed his mouth, his eyes darting around, looking a little cute.

The car didn’t go through Walter Square but instead rounded the back of the Holy Mountain, entering the Holy Palace.

"Did you encounter anything fun on this trip out? I heard the outside world is quite exciting, especially Country Hua, an ancient civilization that can produce someone like the Queen. I really want to see what kind of place that is?" Ben said yearningly.

Q said faintly, "Country Hua has an ancient poem, ’We do not see the true face of Mount Lu; we only see it because we’re in this mountain.’ That’s for you."
