Chapter 731 Tracking
In the Commonwealth Parliament Hall, the delegation members gathered together again.
Unlike the previous two times when only some key representatives attended, this time all members of the delegation were present and the long conference table was completely filled.
The leader of the operation stood at the head of the group and said solemnly to the group, "Gentlemen, news has come from the Fusion Land that our Camp One there has suffered an unexpected attack. Mr. Wilhelm of the Linax Federation has been confirmed dead."
“Wilhelm is dead?”
Many members of the delegation looked surprised and puzzled.
However, some members of the delegation had already known something about the situation before arriving. At this time, one of them asked very seriously: "Is the authenticity of the news confirmed?"
"The message was delivered here half an hour ago, encrypted. The Linax Federation delegation also received the same message. It was sent by one of their members, so we can confirm that this is not fake news."
"Who did this?"
"Due to the limited content of the telegram, we have not yet been able to confirm the identity of the attacker. Based on the description of his clothing, we can only tell that he was wearing the clothes of the investigation director of the Dashun Processing Bureau."
The investigation director of the Dashun Processing Bureau?
Everyone in the delegation reacted immediately.
A representative asked seriously, "Is it the investigation director who went to the Interfusion Area to provide support?"
"It's possible."
At this moment, a representative immediately asked sternly, "Didn't you say before that he went to support the Dashun camp there? Why is he here?"
The person in charge of the operation said helplessly: "We are not sure whether this is him. If it is him, then our judgment is indeed wrong."
"Really?" the representative continued, "I remember your assessment of his strength, ranking him consistently in the top 400 worldwide. How do you explain what happened today? It seems you've made more than one mistake. I think we need to review the funding of our intelligence and operations departments."
The person in charge of the operation immediately apologized sincerely, bowed and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we are very sorry. This is our mistake."
He added: "Those assessments were made by professionals based on his past performance. Assuming that the attacker was himself, the data and presentation used for the assessments were significantly deviated from the facts. Perhaps he intentionally concealed his true strength."
Another fighter to make it into the top 30?
The delegation members looked at each other. Regardless of the attacker's identity, his ability to kill Wilhelm was undeniable.
Someone asked again: "Is the attacker injured? Is he still capable of fighting? Can the camp capture him?"
"Sorry," the operation leader apologized, "the content of the telegram we received is limited. We have already sent a telegram to the next airship heading there to check the situation, but it may be difficult to capture this person...
According to the telegram, the attacker killed Wilhelm in a direct encounter. We may..."
He glanced at all the delegation members present and warned them sternly, "Perhaps we should focus more on the safety of the camp rather than how to capture this individual. The main force of the camp has already departed for unknown areas, and there aren't enough forces left to stop such a powerful fighter."
Many of the delegation members present looked stern.
Of course they knew the importance of that camp, otherwise they would not have transferred materials from various branches to build it. If there was no such camp, even if they captured the remains, it would be almost impossible to send them back to the rear safely.
A member of the delegation said, "Can we take legal action against the Bureau? We went to support the front lines, but were attacked by the Bureau. This is a violation of the agreement of the Grand Alliance."
The operations leader took a look and saw that the speaker was a representative who rarely attended meetings. No wonder he asked such a question, but he still patiently explained, "It's impossible. It's just a telegram, there's not even a photo. The processing bureau can completely deny it."
Even if we use this information to file a lawsuit, the Dashun government can easily refute it. The attackers are wearing the investigation director's clothes, which means they are government personnel. So, if they are wearing your clothes, can it be said that you are killing each other?
Moreover, the place of fusion is located at the junction of two worlds. It is the fighting field of the two worlds, and it is also a battlefield. There is no order at all. The deep struggle there cannot be solved by the so-called laws. The only prevailing law there is the most primitive violence. The strong win and the weak are eliminated.
A member of the delegation sitting near the front asked calmly, "What's the reaction of the Linax Federation diplomatic corps? It's one of their people who died this time, and they didn't say anything?"
The person in charge of the operation said respectfully, "So far, there has been no news from their side."
"What are your plans?"
The operation leader said, "This person poses a serious threat to our joint forces, but due to limited communications, we cannot make reasonable arrangements until the next intelligence arrives. However, I believe we must be prepared for the camp to suffer serious losses."
The member said in a deep voice, "This puts us back on the same level as the Dashun government. If this is what the Dashun defense department wanted to achieve, then they have already succeeded."
The operation leader decisively interjected, "But it was useless." He raised his head, looked at the entire delegation, and said confidently, "Due to the breach in the World Ring, the Jibei Provincial Government's manpower has been greatly constrained. The forces we and our partners have invested on the front lines are not comparable to what they have at the moment.
Even if there's a third-level fighter ahead of us who might be ranked high enough to break into the top 30 in the world rankings, it won't change anything. Although Wilhelm is gone, we still have Heros."
"We still have Heros." As soon as these words came out, many members of the delegation present agreed. "Giant God" Heros is the most useful card in their hands, not to mention the cooperation of other team members. The advantages they have accumulated in their initial investment are definitely not something that can be made up by one or two people from Dashun.
Deep in the unknown area, Xu Chan was leading his team carefully through a gap in a dense woodland. They had been here for many days, but had not yet found the whereabouts of the lost items.
The glow of the fallen objects only lasts for a while and then disappears, so we can only tell where they fell.
Moreover, the leftover objects not only attract people, but also creatures in the blending area. It is very likely that they will be eaten by some creatures. This is difficult to feel unless you get close, so you need to search patiently.
It is very difficult to find such a small thing in such a large area, not to mention that the depths of the fusion area is an extremely dangerous place, which is extremely challenging.
During this period, the team he led also suffered some losses. The main members were still there, but the number of technical, logistical, and auxiliary personnel had been reduced by 30%.
Even if he were there, it would be difficult to protect him.
He still remembered that just two days ago, someone saw a ray of light less than tens of meters away, which was suspected to be a fallen object. The people who went forward just ran over, only to be swallowed by a creature living there.
There were also people who were walking just fine, on the same path their teammates had walked before, but they sank into the ground inexplicably. Although they were grabbed by their teammates and escaped, their bodies from the waist down had been melted together by some highly corrosive digestive fluid and could not be distinguished at all. In addition, their bodies had been injected with some kind of parasite eggs, which were used as a breeding ground. In the end, they could only be injected with inhibitory drugs and carried on a stretcher.
This team member was also tough. He knew that he was a burden to the entire team, or perhaps he simply didn't want to face it, so he chose to commit suicide that night. The people who were taking care of him may have known about it, or may have overlooked it, but no one mentioned it. They could only burn him on the spot and take the ashes back.
Situations like this have occurred several times, but the people who had been wary of the Union and the Linax Federation have not suffered much damage so far.
At this time, a member who was responsible for covering the rear came through the interface and said: "Captain, they are coming up again."
The team has small field creatures that allow them to stay in touch with each other.
Xu Chan had anticipated this. Ever since they encountered the blood diamond, they had been followed by people for the past few days. Although they managed to shake them off several times, they would catch up again soon.
There was no way around it. With so many of them walking in this unfamiliar territory, they were bound to leave many traces, which could not be hidden from the eyes of experienced veterans. The intersection was full of dangers, and every step had to be taken with caution, which resulted in a slow pace.
He immediately used his boundary certificate to tell everyone, "Everyone continue forward and follow the path of the pioneering team. Don't look back. Captain Hai, you will lead the team while I'm gone."
Captain Hai was a big, bearded man. Upon hearing this, he immediately said, "Captain Xu, I will lead the team well."
Xu Chan patted him on the shoulder, then he walked to the back of the team alone. After the team members responsible for covering the reconnaissance in the rear left, he waited for a while and saw a vague figure appear in the woods. He then forcibly pulled away the serrated vines that were wrapped around him and walked in front of him.
The man was wearing a crimson protective suit, his hair was tied in a bun, his face and shoulders were particularly broad and heavy, which made his upper body look unusually strong, but his legs were a little thin in comparison. His eyes were also a rare red, which was suspected to be caused by the alienation of some alienated organization.
"Blood diamond..."
Xu Chan stared at the man who came. He had fought with this man before. This man had been hit head-on by his heart power, but was still intact.
He asked himself that it was impossible for him to take on anyone's mental strength without getting hurt, which meant that there was something special about this person's strength and body.
However, after the battle, the opponent may have felt that he could not defeat him, so he retreated directly and never appeared again. But now he has come to him again. Is he sure of what he can do?
Just as he was thinking this, his eyelids suddenly twitched, and then he heard a series of explosions, quickly coming from far away and getting closer. The next moment, two agile figures appeared in another place of the blood diamond.
