Universe’s Ultimate BOSS-Chapter 361 - 360: A Wide Circle of Friends
Chapter 361: Chapter 360: A Wide Circle of Friends
“Marshal, this military power…” Guan Shi said cautiously.
Wang Hao snorted coldly, “You all arrived late and disobeyed military orders. Lesser offenders will be expelled from the army, while more serious ones will be executed without mercy. What do you think I should do?!”
Guan Shi’s liver and gallbladder nearly split with fright as he hurriedly said, “Please spare my life, Marshal. I will surrender my military authority and also use money to buy my worthless life.”
No sooner had he spoken than the other young nobles also nodded vigorously, indicating their willingness to surrender their military authority.
Three Bears rubbed his eyes desperately, unable to believe the scene unfolding before him. With just a few threatening words from Wang Hao, not only had he easily regained control over the military authority but also made a hefty sum of money on top.
Was this scene before them too fake? Could it be they were dreaming and hadn’t woken up?!
...
Everyone present was also stunned. These guys were too useless, right?!
Just by getting a glare from Wang Hao, they were obediently handing over military authority and even planning to use money to buy their lives; surely this couldn’t be a dream, could it?!
At this moment, an old soldier with a scar on his face stepped forward and said indifferently, “We follow Young Master Guan Shi. If he decides to leave the army, then we will leave with him.”
A cold smile played on Wang Hao’s lips, “What kind of place do you think this army is? You think you can come and go as you please?!”
The scar-faced old soldier chuckled and responded, “Marshal, we have nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand men, while you only have ten thousand. If we want to leave, no one can stop us.”
“Who says they can’t be stopped?!”
Three Bears dashed forward with a burst of speed to stand in front of Wang Hao, with the aura of the Martial Emperor displayed unreservedly before everyone.
“Three Martial Emperors!”
The old soldiers exclaimed, adopting fighting stances.
The scar-faced old soldier’s complexion became grave, “Marshal, even if you use the Martial Emperor to keep us here, we won’t follow your commands. So your attempt to subdue us is completely futile.”
Wang Hao’s lips curled upward, “I never planned to keep you here by force. As for subduing you, I don’t see that as a problem at all.”
The old soldiers scoffed, not taking Wang Hao seriously in the least.
They were members of the four Ace Armies, and their willpower was definitely not something ordinary people could compare to; whether it was Wang Hao’s money or promises of high positions and rich rewards, none of these would sway their hearts.
Wang Hao snapped his fingers, and Qian Wanyang scurried over to operate the smart bracelet.
Suddenly, images appeared on the screen, accompanied by cries for help.

“Husband, save me!”
“Daddy, where are you? Come and save me!”
“Son, don’t worry about us…”
“…”
Witnessing this scene, the old soldiers’ eyes filled with rage, their expressions turning terribly ferocious.
At the same time, an overwhelming aura of murderous intent spread.
Qian Wanyang, frightened, quickly turned off the video and retreated to Wang Hao’s side, his voice shaking as he said, “Boss, why do I feel like we’re playing with fire?”
“Don’t you think a life where you can play with fire is interesting?” Wang Hao said with a slight smile.
Qian Wanyang swallowed hard, scared by Wang Hao’s fearless demeanor as his blood pressure soared.
The scar-faced old soldier’s face was stern, “Marshal, do you think that by kidnapping our families, you can force us to submit?!”
As he finished speaking, the old soldiers glared at Wang Hao, wishing they could immediately rush forward and tear him to pieces.
Wang Hao looked innocent, “Who kidnapped your families? This is a blackmail video sent to me by the DY terrorist group demanding ransom.”
“DY terrorist organization?!”
The old soldiers were stunned, then filled with rage. This damned terrorist organization dared to mess with them; they were truly courting death.
“Let’s go, take down the DY terrorist organization!”
“Right, with so many of us, even wiping out ten terrorist organizations would be no problem.”
“Everybody quiet down. The members of the DY terrorist organization may not be as tough as us, but they have the Seven Demons under Martial Saint. What do we have to wipe them out with?”
“That… I don’t care. We have to destroy them no matter what.”
“Everyone stop arguing. If you go like this, do you really think you can rescue anyone?”
“So what do we do then? Just stand by and do nothing?”
“The terrorists sent a message to the Marshal, didn’t they? Let’s see what the Marshal has to say.”
“What else can he say? He’ll definitely want us to pledge allegiance to him.”
“If he can save my family, following him isn’t really a problem.”
“That’s right, we’re all soldiers. It doesn’t matter who we follow.”
“Nonsense. Have you forgotten the commander’s kindness to us?”
“We haven’t forgotten the commander’s kindness, but we can’t just abandon our families!”
“We’re all getting old. We just want to live peacefully with our families. If we lose them, what’s the point of living?”
“…”
During the veterans’ endless argument, Scarred Veteran stared calmly at Wang Hao and said, “I’ve long heard that the Marshal has a wide network of friends. I never expected you to even turn enemies like the DY terrorist organization into friends.”
Wang Hao said with a smile, “What makes you say that?”
Scarred Veteran exhaled, “Last time, I heard you called on the Seven Demons to take out six Courage Battleships from the Military Department. I originally thought the Seven Demons acted just for the sake of the six Courage Battleships, but now it seems like you’ve formed an alliance.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the veterans glared at Wang Hao, their looks suggesting that if Wang Hao didn’t clarify things, they would take action.
Wang Hao shrugged his shoulders, “You make a good point, but do you think someone of my status needs to ally with a Demon King like the Seven Demons?”
Upon hearing this, the veterans froze, and whispers arose among them.
“Do you think Wang Hao really formed an alliance with the Seven Demons?”
“I feel it’s impossible. With an identity as fearsome as Wang Hao’s, why would he ally with such a Demon King and degrade himself?”
“I also think it’s unlikely. Wang Hao is supported by three major powers and four key universities. He doesn’t necessarily care about the DY terrorist organization.”
“That’s true. With talent unprecedented and as brilliant as Wang Hao’s, he wouldn’t tarnish his reputation by associating with a demon who kills without blinking.”
“But I heard Wang Hao really doesn’t care about his reputation!”
“Care my ass. The rumors you’re hearing now are about Wang Hao’s conduct, which is just like child’s play.”
“That’s right. Wang Hao is only eighteen this year. It’s understandable that he has a brash and impudent personality, considering he’s a young man who has achieved great success early.”
“Now that the opportunity is before him, if Wang Hao wins a battle, his backers will definitely restore his reputation.”
“Then, he will transform from a super genius to a national hero, and his youthful indiscretions will merely show that people thought he was immature.”
“That’s a good point. History is written by the victors, and Wang Hao has that potential.”
“But that still doesn’t explain that Wang Hao cares a lot about his reputation and wouldn’t associate with the Seven Demons, does it?”
“If you were a super genius with a limitless future, would you associate with a mass-murdering terrorist and choose to ruin your prospects?”
“Impossible. They’re completely in different worlds.”
“…”
