The three Lu siblings listened quietly to Sang Xu and the other two's story. In the night, everyone's expression became increasingly solemn...
Today, Longteng still bears the name of a military base on the surface, the flags are still flying, and the discipline is still being enforced.
But the internal power structure has long been turned upside down, like a hollowed-out tree trunk, intact on the outside but rotten on the inside.
Most of those who sit in the decision-making seats and issue orders are no longer the soldiers who once stood firm in their beliefs and took it as their responsibility to protect the people.
Instead, there are powerful people with high levels of superpowers.
Gold, wood, water, fire, earth... the types and levels of superpowers have become new military ranks, and the strength of one's power determines the power of speech!
In this new order where the strong prey on the weak and strength is respected, the former military discipline and beliefs are gradually deteriorating in the game of survival and power.
Justice gives way to interests, order succumbs to power, and those ideals that once shone brightly can now only sigh silently in the corner.
Commander Duan Yi, whom Sang Xu had followed before, was one of the few leaders who still adhered to the original intention of being a soldier.
This veteran, who is over half a century old, always remembers the responsibilities on his shoulders.
However, amidst the mutual entanglement of various forces, even he is often helpless.
Many times, even though we know what to do, we have to bow to reality and struggle to find a balance between ideals and reality.
Initially, there were fierce struggles between the factions, but since some time ago, a subtle balance has suddenly formed between them.
Sang Xu guessed that there might be someone behind the leaders of these factions who was manipulating this matter.
But in Longteng, the strict hierarchical management system makes many areas restricted areas.
As the captain, Sang Xu had no authority to get close to those core areas, so naturally he had no way to verify this speculation.
This afternoon, when trading with Long Teng at the 'Flame Heart Collection', if Sang Xu hadn't whispered that the space-capable person who came was Chief Duan's confidant, and that Chief Duan had done them a favor,
At that time, Sang Xu had said that the fifty people sent by Longteng were representatives of at least three factions, and they monitored and balanced each other...
In fact, only those people themselves know who their people belong to.
Peng Chun thought he was in control, but in fact, he could not hide anything from Long Teng!
The supplies sold by Lu Nange and his men would definitely be returned to Longteng, and since Space Qi was Duan Yi's man, he would naturally tell the truth. Duan Yi would also know what these supplies represented...
Otherwise, they would not choose to sell supplies at low prices today, but might choose to force people to stay!
Lu Xici felt that their supplies were not blown in by the wind. Every bag of rice and every barrel of oil were obtained through fighting on the brink of life and death.
If the other side is a military that truly serves the country and the people, they don't mind supporting...
But if they are just parasites using the name of the military for their own benefit, wouldn't it be better to keep these supplies at their own base?
When they heard about what happened to Sang Yan, Lu Nange and his two siblings had no regrets and sold the supplies to Dong at a low price... This Chief Duan is indeed a man worthy of respect!
Sang Yan sat on a rattan chair, the moonlight shining on her face which had regained its smoothness, but it could not illuminate the haze in her eyes.
Everyone in the Sang family is born with outstanding looks, which is a gift engraved in their genes, and Sang Yan is an even more outstanding one.
In the past, the Sang family could protect it, but in the end times, when order collapses and laws are ineffective, beauty is unable to hold on and will only become a burden and a disaster.
Even after the end of the world, she covered her face with dirt every day and made herself dirty, but she still couldn't stop the covetousness of those with evil intentions.
Beauty has become a curse in this world of broken order.
