Upon hearing this, Li Ke blinked: "Security? Protect who?"
Xia Ji: "The owner of this ship is Mr. Zheng and his family. They were invited to attend the Med family's trading dinner, and the focus of the dinner was the unveiling of the solar energy mine. This is one of the reasons why so many families have come from all over the country."
Hearing Xia Ji's answer, Li Ke thought for a moment before saying, "Then the banquet venue is not in the same place as the mine, right? I thought you would go directly to the mine."
Xia Ji: "We suspect that the epicenter of the tsunami was the location of the deep-sea mine. The area had only recently calmed down when the enemy fleet returned to base. Getting there directly will be extremely difficult."
After saying this, Xia Ji looked at Li Ke meaningfully. Li Ke squinted at him and looked back. Over the past few days, she had actually thought a lot.
She had always known that the nation's power was immense, but the years of travel and the army's behind-the-scenes operations had diminished that feeling considerably.
But after seeing the underwater aircraft carrier, Li Ke couldn't help but reflect again. She could see that, whether it was her own country or other surviving countries, they had never stopped moving forward, even under such difficult circumstances.
These ordinary people struggling to survive are still like ants at the very bottom, completely unaware of the world.
Instead of catering to Xia Ji's deeper meaning, Li Ke asked about other topics: "Is the aircraft carrier that sent us here still waiting in the same place? Or has it gone somewhere else? Speaking of which, we also have our own nuclear submarine base, so why don't we launch a full-scale attack on those trash that are destroying the earth?"
Xia Ji wasn't dissatisfied when Li Ke didn't respond. He simply said softly, "There's too much to say here, and there are many things I can't tell you. But you just need to know that there are things we did, you just might not know about them. And some things we watched happen without taking any action might simply be because the time wasn't right yet."
What we have, others also have; many things exist to maintain a balance, and no one will choose destruction until the very last resort. This world doesn't belong to just us; preserving it is difficult, but destroying it isn't easy either. We have to wait; the time isn't right yet.
After listening quietly, Li Ke met Xia Ji's gaze: "So you mean you can't tell me anything? Where is the Zheng family? What are their identities? How long until we get to the banquet venue? You can't not tell me these things either, can you?"
