At this time, the Military Department of Xia Kingdom was in a secret base. Hundreds of intelligence officers were busy in the hall. This is the largest intelligence center in Xia Kingdom, responsible for monitoring the movements of major organizations in the world. At this moment, the alarm in the base suddenly rang. Alfox Marsh, the prime minister who was in charge of the Intelligence Department. He heard the siren and rushed to the intelligence hall as soon as possible, asking with a solemn expression. "What's going on?" "Minister, I just received a news that the Lord of Shura Hall suddenly entered our country half an hour ago!" An intelligence officer quickly reported to Alfox Marsh. "What!" Alfox Marsh face suddenly changed, and he asked hurriedly, "Have you found out the reason? Why did he suddenly enter Xia Kingdom? Is there any action in the Shura Palace?" At this moment, the famous God of War of Xia Kingdom was actually a little panicked! There is no way he can do it! The Shura Palace is the most powerful force in the Death Battlefield. It has countless strong men under its command and its power is overwhelming! Especially the eight major Shuras in his organization are internationally renowned superpowers, each one possessing the strength of a top god of war. After all, Xia Kingdom is one of the most powerful countries in Kyushu, with countless powerful people in its territory. Even if the eight great Shuras of the Shura Palace gathered in the Xia Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom was confident of suppressing them all. What really made Alfox Marsh uneasy was the Lord of the Shura Palace! He is recognized as the best God of War in the Death Battlefield! In the past three years, countless strong men have died in his hands! Not long ago, three top war gods of Neon Kingdom tried to kill that man, and they were killed in just a few minutes, shocking the whole world. If the Lord was angry, Xia Kingdom will be in big trouble! Upon hearing Alfox's inquiry, an intelligence officer quickly replied, "Report, the specific reason is not yet clear, but we have locked the target's location. He is now moving towards Donghae City, Tiannan Province!" "What? Donghae City?" When Alfox heard this, he was suddenly surprised! Donghae City is just a second-level city in Tiannan Province. How could he go there? Did something happen to Donghae City? "Send someone to investigate immediately to see what happened in Donghae City? I want to know the specific results within ten minutes!"Alfox yelled. "Yes!" Everyone responded quickly and started investigating immediately. At this time, an intelligence officer suddenly raised his hand and reported, "Minister, the Tiannan branch has just sent a message asking if it is necessary to send guards to intercept him!" Hearing his words, Alfox couldn't help but rolled his eyes and cursed, "Intercept! Tell them that no one can act rashly, otherwise they will be punished by military law!" With his's combat power, who intercepts him rashly, will die in vain! While Alfox was extremely busy, Ruxley party had already rushed to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of Donghae City as quick as possible. At this time, inside the abandoned factory, a yellow-haired child trafficker was beating a little girl with a belt. This little girl was about six or seven years old. She looked very cute with raw pink cheek. But at this time, the little girl's body was dirty and covered with shocking scars, which was unbearable to see! "Damn it, you little brat is so brave. You dare to steal food to eat. I'll beat you to death!" The yellow-haired child trafficker cursed with a ferocious expression. He hit the little girl hardly with the belt without any mercy. There are many bright-red blood marks on the little girl's tender skin. Although her skin was bruised from the beating, the little girl remained silent! She hugged her little head tightly and huddled in the corner, protecting a little boy who was only three or four years old in her arms. Not far from the little girl, there were seven or eight children of similar age. Their bodies were also covered in scars, and some of the children even had no arms or legs. They looked miserable! These children were abducted and trafficked by these traffickers from all over the Xia Kingdom. The younger children were sold to others at high prices, while the older children were kept by them. The traffickers disguised them as beggars, and forced them to go out to beg everyday. In order to win the sympathy of passers-by, these traffickers will deliberately beat these children and even cut off their hands and feet cruelly to obtain more charity. Since the little girl was captured by this group, she has to go out begging with these children everyday. If they fail to earn the designated amount of money, they will be beaten severely and forbade to eat. These days, due to the rain, the little girl and these children have received almost no money. In order to punish them, these traffickers have not given them food for two days. The little girl and these children are so hungry that they can only eat leftovers from the garbage dump. This afternoon, the little girl saw that one of the little boys was almost dying of hunger, so she secretly took a piece of ham. She gave it to the little boy while the traffickers were not paying attention. However, the traffickers found out and beat her severely. Seeing the little girl was beaten and covered in blood, the other traffickers around her showed no sympathy, they had gloating smiles on their faces. The leader of a middle-aged trafficker saw that the little girl would rather be beaten to protect the little boy in her arms. There was a sneer smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He walked up to the little girl and snatched the little boy from her arms. "Etan!" The little girl exclaimed. She saw the little boy crying in the hands of the middle-aged trafficker. She quickly knelt on the ground and begged the trafficker, "Uncle, please, please let Etan go! That ham sausage was stolen by me. If you want to beat, just beat me! Don't hurt Etan! please!" Hearing the little girl's plea, the dealer showed a smirk on his face. He took out the leftover food he had eaten a few days ago, placed it in front of the little girl and said, "Just eat this, I will let him go. Otherwise I will cut off this little brat's hands and feet today so that I can get more money in the future!" "No...don't, don't hurt Etan!" The little girl trembled and begged. She glanced at the food in the box, turned pale. There is a hint of timidity in her eyes. This food in the box had been there for several days and had already gone rancid. There were still a few cigarette butts in it, emitting an unpleasant fishy smell that was worse than swill. The little girl instinctively wanted to retreat, but when she saw the little boy in the man's hand, she finally gritted her teeth, grabbed the box of food and ate it. "Haha, this little brat actually ate it!" Seeing this scene, the traffickers around them burst into laughter. The little girl shed tears. While eating, she sobbed sadly, "Brother, where are you, come and save me! I'm so sad now, I miss you so much..." Just when the little girl was crying sadly, the factory door was suddenly kicked open. The next moment, a young man in black with murderous intent rushed in from outside. When she saw this young man, the little girl was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes suddenly glowed with an unprecedented brilliance. She shouted heartbreakingly, "Brother!" "Carmelia?" Ruxley trembled and turned quickly his head to look. When he saw the little girl, Ruxley felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His heart seemed to have been dug out in half, and he was so distressed that he couldn't breathe! Although he hadn't seen her for three years, he still recognized at first glance that this scarred little girl was his sister, Carmelia! "Brother, you finally come to save me! I miss you so much, misses you so much..." An innocent smile appeared on the little girl's face, and she walked towards Ruxley with her hand stretched out. But as soon as she took a step, her body staggered and fell backwards. "Carmelia!" Ruxley let out a shrill scream, rushed to the little girl in an instant. He hugged the little girl tightly in his arms, and said in a trembling voice with tears streaming down his face, "Carmelia, I'm sorry, I'm late!"
