Chapter 738: You’re My Hero
“Phew! That guy is finally dead!”
The old warlock heaved a long sigh of relief.
Then, he looked at Tang Hao and said with a smile, “Not bad, young man!”
He had a relaxed expression on his face. As he spoke, he leaned against a pillar, wanting to take a rest.
He did not expect that the moment he touched the pillar, it shook and collapsed. Then, the remaining half of the building collapsed with a loud crash, sending a cloud of dust that covered the sky.
Amid the dust, the old warlock stood there. The smile was frozen on his face.
Then, his face twitched and turned beet-red.
‘Dammit, that’s the symbol of Merrica, and it collapsed just like that!’
Tang Hao stood there with an innocent look on his face as though saying, “That has nothing to do with me. You’re the one who touched it!”
The old warlock’s face twitched even more when he saw that, and he almost wanted to curse out loud.
‘So it’s my fault now?
‘That brat was throwing explosives everywhere! If he hadn’t done that, the entire building wouldn’t have collapsed!
Now that the Hexagon and the White House have collapsed, the damage to Merrica’s reputation was great.
He tried to control his anger until his face turned green.
Without that guy’s help, Merrica would be finished.
They heard a rustling sound coming from not far away. Several people came out from among the ruins. One of them was Thea, and next to her was an African-American.
Tang Hao recognized that person at a glance. That was none other than the Merrican President, whom he had seen often on the Internet.
The other people were all high-ranking officials of the Merrican government.
They stood up from the ruins and looked around with a dazed expression.
“Oh my god!”
Someone held his head and cried out in agony.
At that moment, they could not believe their eyes.
The President stood there, seemingly confused.
After a long time, he slowly came to his senses and understood what had happened.
First, he was controlled by dark warlocks. Then, a war between warlocks broke out, and the Hexagon and White House collapsed. It was hard for him to accept everything at once.
Then, he looked around and looked toward their direction.
“He is…?”
He glanced at the old warlock, then looked at Tang Hao.
At that moment, Tang Hao used a concealment spell and blurred his face.
“You’re the Dragon of Huaxia?”
The President was shocked and took a few steps back.
“Haha! Don’t worry, Mr. President. It’s all thanks to him that we can defeat the dark warlocks and save you. We should thank him!” The old warlock quickly said.
“What?” The officials were stunned.
‘Did a Huaxianese just save us?’
They seemed quite awkward. Merricans had prided themselves for their power, but Huaxia saved them this time. That was quite a huge blow to their confidence.
The President hesitated for a moment before daring to step forward.
“Thank you! On behalf of the Merrican government, I sincerely thank you!”
He extended his hand and shook hands with Tang Hao.
Indeed, he sounded sincere.
“It’s nothing!” Tang Hao shook hands with him and said casually.
“Quickly tell them to cease fire!” The President hurriedly said when he heard the rumbling sounds coming from far away.
Soon, the order was passed down.
The warlocks and the army stopped firing at each other, and the situation soon came under control.
After that, they hunted down the remnants, cleaned up the battlefield, and prepared a press release.
There had to be an explanation for the major incident.
Meanwhile, the intense battle caused the Internet to be abuzz with discussion.
“World War 3 is starting!”
“The end is nigh!”
Such theories were seen all over the Internet, and everyone was panicking. Riots broke out in several places in Merrica.
The White House held a press conference in the middle of the night.
Meanwhile, Tang Hao drove away in an old car with Thea inside.
“It’s finally over!” Thea cheered and stretched her limbs, thus revealing her graceful curves.
Tang Hao caught a glance of that with the corner of his eye and nearly lost control of the car. He quickly grabbed the steering wheel.
She giggled proudly when she saw that.
“Drive that way!” She pointed at the road.
Soon, the car stopped at a quiet place.
“You’re my hero!”
She slowly leaned close to Tang Hao and smiled charmingly. Those golden eyes were slightly narrowed.
She gently caressed Tang Hao’s cheek and looked at him with an infatuated gaze.
“I miss you so much!” She muttered.
Suddenly, she held Tang Hao’s cheek and kissed him on the lips, and the two of them fell down.
After a long time, everything calmed down.
“I’ve heard about what happened to you. I really wanted to go and visit you, but I couldn’t leave…” She muttered.
“We’re saved thanks to you! You’ve always been my hero; in the past, the present, and the future,” she said emotionally as she gently kissed him.
“I’m probably going to be very busy rebuilding and recruiting in the next few days. I’m needed everywhere, so I can’t go to Huaxia. Can you stay here for another two days?”
“OK!” Tang Hao nodded.
“Ah! By the way, I’ve heard that you’ve invented some sort of identification pendant. Can you give me one? I’ll need it when I go to Huaxia in the future.”
“What number do you want? I have numbers 1 to 7 and 10.”
“How about number 6?” Thea thought for a moment and smiled. “6 seems to be a popular number in Huaxia!”
“Number 6 it is!” Tang Hao replied, took out the jade pendant, and handed it to her.
