Reborn as the Darling of the Delta

Seeing this, Hamk sighed deeply. It seemed he had been driven to a dead end. Since he was going to die anyway, none of them would have an easy time either.

After calming his breathing, Hamk gave his final command:

"Fight Reis and his men to the death. Even if we die, we must kill as many of their men as possible."

Meanwhile, the strategist sitting to the side began to tremble involuntarily. Since he arrived here and became Hamk's strategist, he hadn't enjoyed a single good day. He hadn't even had his fill of women here, and now they were telling him to die? What a joke!

"Lord Hamk, is there really no way out?"

The strategist stared blankly at Hamk, who sat to the side looking quite "calm." He hadn't expected that the leader he was following would just give up so easily. Couldn't he just abandon these useless soldiers and try to escape on his own?

Hamk: You really think those tanks behind Demoulan are just for show? If you're so capable, show me how to run. If you can get out, I'll call you dad.

Chapter 285 Hamk: Was I Backstabbed? (1)

"Damn it, these soldiers are idiots. What are they doing here with explosives? Their own boss has abandoned them and run away. Seriously, if they were my soldiers, they would never be such idiots."

Sitting in the back of the car, Reis frowned as he watched the soldiers charging towards him with explosives. Good heavens, he knew his side was desperately short of manpower. He had originally planned to recruit these little bastards, but now these guys were actually coming to him with explosives to self-destruct.

Reese: Could it be... could it be that my leadership charisma is inferior to that bastard Hamk? Impossible! Absolutely impossible. I've never been poor in my soldiers, so it's absolutely impossible for me to be inferior to Hamk.

Royal Guard: That's right, that's right. With Lord Reis, we are the happiest soldiers in all of Asara. Those who don't want to come are idiots.

Ordinary Asara soldiers: They're all idiots! They don't treat us ordinary soldiers like human beings. We've already exhausted all our energy just to stay alive, and now this bastard Reis has forcibly recruited us. Not only do they not give us money or resources, but when they need us, they want us to die! Compared to Commander Said, Reis must die!!!

While Reis was still pondering why these people were willing to risk their lives for Hamk, Said, who was frowning beside him, couldn't stand it any longer. He picked up his M249, jumped out of the vehicle, ran to the front line, and began firing at the charging soldiers.

In his view, since these people were willing to follow Hamk, they must be birds of a feather. Even if they were forced to join, in order to achieve the greater good, he could only ask them to die.

"Kill! Don't let them slow down our advance, and don't let Hamk get away."

Seeing Said wreaking havoc ahead, Reiss's hands couldn't help but itch. He picked up the S12K beside him, roared, and joined the battle.

With Reis joining the fray, the battlefield ahead suddenly descended into chaos.

"Damn you bunch of little bastards, let's see how big and thick your grandpa Reis's gun barrel is! I'll shoot you to death, damn it, I'm so happy!"

With his S12K in hand, Reis was like a big bad wolf that had wandered into a flock of sheep. Unlike Said, who was taking down one person with a single shot, Reis simply wiped out a whole group of people with a single shot of his own.

With the two men firing their weapons, the soldiers blocking the road ahead were quickly dealt with. Just as the main force was preparing to continue advancing, they were surprised to find that the large tank that had disappeared had returned. And if Said was not mistaken, the person dangling on the tank's gun barrel was none other than Hamk, whom they had been searching for.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . .

Three minutes ago.

"Why, why can't you try to escape again, Lord Hamk? Are you really willing to die here like this?"

At this moment, Hamk's strategist also looked at Hamk with a ferocious expression. In his eyes, Hamk should be just like himself, someone who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals and be willing to give up everything to escape. But what's going on now?

The strategist never expected that Hamk would choose to go completely mad at this moment, refusing to even attempt a final escape.

"Sigh, you wouldn't understand. It's not that I don't want to escape, but this time I really can't escape. You have no idea how deep Demulan's hatred for me is. Even she came this time, so this time, I have no chance of surviving."

After listening to Hamk's words, the strategist's expression gradually returned to calm, and he leaned back in his chair as if resigned to his fate.

"Does Demoulan hate you?"

But even Hamk, who was sitting next to him, didn't hear what he said.

"Boss, we've turned around, are we really going to...?"

The driver turned his head and looked at Hamk before asking a final question.

"Okay, let's go, then... ugh!!!"

Before Hamk could finish speaking, a dagger appeared in his chest, shocking everyone present. The culprit behind this was the strategist sitting closest to Hamk.

"What...what do you want to do?"

Hamk stared wide-eyed in disbelief at his trusted strategist, who had indeed made many contributions to him. But he never imagined that after a lifetime of being Asara's backstabber, he would die at the hands of his own people.

“Boss Hamk, didn’t you just say it yourself? This is the hatred between you and Demulan, and you’re the one who provoked Reis and Said, right? Well then, I think if you die, at least you can give us brothers a way to survive.”

Listening to the strategist's words, Hamk finally understood what it felt like to be backstabbed. After hearing his words, the two drivers in the front and the person in charge of firing the shells also turned their attention to him.

"Ha... Boss Hamk, I think the strategist is right. Look, isn't all of this your fault? If we hand you over, it will be a way for you to atone for your sins."

Normally, this person's head would have already fallen to the ground, but in this situation, as blood continued to drain from his body, Hamk's head began to slip into a coma.

"Strategist, what should we do next?"

After seeing Hamk fall into a coma due to blood loss, the others once again focused their attention on the strategist. After all, it was Hamk who had stabbed this man, so it seemed that the strategist already had a plan.

"Someone come with me to lift him onto the front cannon barrel. The grievances have their source, and the debtors have their debtors. Now that Hamk is in this state, let's see if Said and Reis will let us off the hook."

After saying that, he called on the person operating the cannon to help carry Hamk out and place him on the tank's cannon barrel, with blood dripping down the barrel.

Demulan, standing not far away, quietly watched the two men's actions. When he saw Hamk with a dagger stuck in his chest being carried out by the soldiers, the strategist even raised his hands to surrender when he saw Demulan, and then showed Hamk's "corpse" to Demulan.

"Hehe, interesting. It seems something interesting happened inside the tank."

Chapter 286 Hamk: Was I Backstabbed? (2)

Seeing Hamk casually tossed onto the cannon barrel by his henchmen, watching the blood drip from his chest, was heartbreaking.

At this moment, Demulan was in a very good mood. He knew that while it was very satisfying to take action, he had just witnessed Hamk being betrayed by his former underling.

Demoulan felt as if he had returned to an air-conditioned room on a hot summer day. He took out a bottle of Master Kong Iced Tea with frost from the refrigerator next to him, and then took out a glass with ice cubes. The first sip he took was so refreshing.

Hahaha, hahahahaha!!!

Demulan suddenly burst into laughter without warning in the eyes of the soldiers beside her, startling them so much that they quietly took a few steps back. Although everyone said that Ms. Demulan's temper and condition had improved a lot recently, judging from the current situation, it seems that the effects of Relink brain-computer interface are still present.

After Demulan finished his "maniacal laughter," he habitually glanced behind him. What he saw made even Demulan unable to hold back his laughter.

Demulan: What are you all trying to do! Are you trying to rebel? Look at the way you're looking at yourselves! Damn it, I'm doomed now, I can't explain myself, and my mouth-swapper Mary isn't even here with me. Is my reputation going to be ruined by these few laughs?

The soldiers behind Desmulan: Yes, that's right. We think if Ms. Desmulan is feeling unwell, she should go see Dr. Rometheus. We can leave the rest to Secretary Mary.

Demoulin: You...you're all ingrates, you bastards! (〒▽〒)

When the strategist saw that Demulan had no intention of attacking them, she breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she had made the right bet this time. Demulan only hated Hamk. As the security director of the space base, she naturally wouldn't take these small fry seriously.

Demoulin: No, I just think you guys won't get past Said and Reis.

So the strategist ordered the driver to drive the tank to the front where Reis and Said were, which was the moment when Said and Reis saw the tank returning.

"Damn it, Said, you have sharp eyes. Why does that guy hanging on that cannon barrel look so much like Hamk? My eyes must be playing tricks on me, right?"

Reis wiped the blood off his face with his clothes and asked Said uncertainly.

"You read that right, that person up there is Hamk, the one we're looking for, but it seems... someone has already taken care of him for us."

Saeed replied, but from his slightly trembling voice, it was clear that he was not as calm inside as he appeared on the outside.

"Damn it, that idiot stole my kill! I'm going to shoot him dead."

Upon hearing this, Reis was alarmed. Hamk was his prey, and his feud with him had lasted for several years. Even when Yusef had given up and decided not to continue the pursuit, Reis stubbornly led his men to continue chasing Hamk until he finally found the castle he was in.

At this moment, the tank hatch opened, and the strategist, with his hands raised, led several people out. He walked shakily to Saeed and cautiously said:

"Hey, Lord Said, you should know that the person you have a grudge against is this Hamk, not us. I even spared his life for you. If you want revenge, you can shoot that bastard Hamk right now."

Before Said could speak, Reis lunged forward, grabbed the strategist with one hand, removed his sunglasses, glared at him, and roared:

"Damn it, you're the one who stabbed Hamk, aren't you? You think I can't handle this damn Hamk? Let me tell you, if I want to, I can raze this place to the ground today."

The strategist, held aloft like a chick, explained in terror that he was willing to surrender, offering any territory and tanks to Reis and his men, just to spare the lives of these "innocent" people.

After listening to the explanation, Reis glanced at the remaining soldiers, then tossed the strategist aside and turned to Said, asking:

“Brother Saeed, you heard what he said. Now that they’ve chosen to surrender, what do you think?”

But as Reis said this, his eyes were fixed on Said, as if he was waiting for Said's answer.

After glancing at the strategist, who was grimacing in pain on the ground, and the Hamk soldiers still alive, Said pondered for a moment, as if making a decision, and said:

“Kill them all, leave no one alive. They say they've surrendered, but do you dare to take them back? I think you're thinking the same thing as me, Rhys.”

As Said spoke, his eyes were fixed on Reis, and the two stared at each other.

Suddenly, Reis grinned, then pointed his S12K at the strategist who was still muttering something, and pulled the trigger with a "bang".

“Of course, Said, I do intend to kill them all. Longbow Valley is indeed short of manpower right now, but I don’t want these rotten apples. I want elite troops.”

The strategist, who was hit head-on by the S12K, was blasted away before he could even utter a word, and then fell to the ground motionless.

When the drivers saw Reis and his men fire, they quickly prepared to draw their pistols to retaliate. However, Reis had countless guns pointed at them. Upon seeing their movements, Reis and Said's soldiers opened fire on them.

"Let's go see if that bastard Hamk is really dead yet. I'm thinking of torturing him a bit. It would be such a waste if he were just killed with a knife like that."

Reis and Said arrived in front of the tank. Reis jumped up and pulled Hamk down from it, and Said then began to check Hamk's current physical condition.

Chapter 287 Hamk: Was I Backstabbed? (3)

Sayed placed his hand under Hamk's nose, waited a moment, then turned to Reis and said:

"He's not quite dead yet, what are you going to do with him?"

Said looked at Reis and asked. He had originally planned to capture this bastard alive and lock him in the basement to torture him properly, but looking at Hamk's current state...

Said said that even if he were stabbed a few times, it wouldn't be enough to vent his anger. Even if you took his claw knife and cut off his little Hamk right now, he wouldn't cry out. That would be too boring.

"Hehe, someone come here, I'll take him to Longbow Valley right now, and I'll send the best medical team to treat him."

Reis chuckled, revealing a smile only a villain would wear. He glanced at the half-dead Hamk in front of him and said that he would give him the best treatment, ensuring that when Said came to Longbow Valley next time, he would see a lively Hamk.

"Isn't this a bit too extravagant? You're going to spend so many Haff coins just to torture this guy?"

Said, who was always frugal, immediately understood Reis's plan. Said did not expect that Reis would be so wealthy and powerful, spending a lot of Haff coins to save Hamk's life, and then slowly torture him later.

"Hey! Brother Said, no need for words. I still have the money, okay? Don't worry, I'll send you a message as soon as I get that bastard Hamk back."

Since Reis had said so, Said couldn't find any reason to refuse. After all, it seemed like he was getting something for nothing. He just wanted to see if he could take Hamk to the dam so Sofia could vent her anger.

Saeed: Getting things for free makes me happy, hehe.

The men Reese had called over carried a stretcher and ran over, with Barton following behind at a jog.

"Yo, Patton, you've come at the right time. This idiot is yours now. Get the doctor who treated my ass to take a good look at him as soon as possible, so he doesn't die. I'm going to have some fun with him later, hehehe."

Seeing Reese's "perverted" expression and hearing the "exquisitely beautiful" sounds the doctor made while treating Reese, Barton began to think about things that weren't so healthy.

Barton: Oh~~~ So that's why Boss Reese hadn't been playing around with women before. He even released all those women he'd captured. So that's what Boss Reese likes...

But as Barton pondered this, he realized something extremely disturbing: having followed Boss Reese for so long, could it be...?

Barton quickly glanced at Hamk's appearance, and... well... it seemed like Boss Reese's taste wasn't very good either. He then glanced at Reese, who was still laughing wildly, and couldn't help but clench his buttocks. He quickly ordered a few soldiers to lift Hamk onto a stretcher and then hurriedly ordered them to take him back.

Barton: Run! Run! That was terrifying! I'm still a virgin! Next time Lord Reiss seeks me out alone, I'll have to be careful. Should I get a pair of iron shorts custom-made?

Roy: Huh?! Bro, you're my godfather! Tell me where I can buy Iron Underpants, bro! If I get my hands on such a weapon, then in the Special Operations Department, no one except Deep Blue can stop me from being silly, goofing around, and watching the drama unfold! Hahahaha!

"So... is that the end?"

Said looked around in confusion. The soldiers behind him had already begun clearing the battlefield. All of this seemed so unreal to Said. Was this... the end?

He wasn't as excited as he'd imagined, perhaps because he hadn't killed Hamk himself. But looking at the empty tank in front of him, it was clear that Hamk, whom he'd always wanted to kill, had been completely taken down. The Hamk who had once wreaked havoc on the entire Asara region and even made the Hafk Group suffer in silence was now just meat on a chopping block.

"Hahaha, brother Said, what are you doing now? Shouldn't you have a laugh too? You know, this idiot Hamk has finally fallen into my hands. Damn it, I'm going to settle all those scores with him later. I'll give him to you when I'm done playing with him."

Reis, looking overjoyed, laughed and patted Said on the shoulder before turning his back and shouting loudly at the soldiers he had brought:

"Men, that was a fucking brilliant battle!!!"

These soldiers seemed to be infected by Reis's words. A few of them took the lead in responding, and then all of them raised their guns and shouted loudly.

Just as things were still going well here, with a loud "bang," our invincible Reese... fell down once again.

"Holy shit, which idiot dared to ambush me from behind? Come at me head-on if you dare! Why the hell did I get shot in the butt again?! Wait, this pain... Demulan?!"

Under Said's shocked expression (which no one else could see), Reis stood up again as if nothing had happened, provided that one could ignore his still bleeding buttocks.

Saeed: Holy crap, how did you even know who hit you? And how did you manage to stand up so naturally?! Did you develop some kind of immunity, you bastard?!

The next moment, on a hillside not far away, Demulan appeared in front of Said and his men with her army. Said's soldiers immediately went into alert mode.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be so durable now? Looks like next time I'll have to aim my AWM at your butt. I guarantee one shot with the AWM will go right through you."

Demulan coldly looked at the Assara-style gorilla and the masked Assara-style old man with a pipe, put his pistol back, and looked at Saeed, saying:
