Inside the office at the B City base.
Chen Yu stood in front of Su Buqing, his gaze fixed intently on Su Buqing. As a level 4 lightning-type ability user, his aura was much stronger than Zheng Yanfei's. Su Buqing was still at the peak of level 3, and the difference of one level was quite noticeable at this moment.
Despite the pressure emanating from Chen Yu, Su Buqing forced a nod and said, "Yes."
Chen Yu slowly walked to Su Buqing's side and patted Su Buqing's shoulder. "These superpowered teams are now regretting it to the core. If they weren't really scared, they wouldn't have left the base overnight. Since they already know they were wrong, wouldn't it be better to just let this matter go? These people didn't even set foot on the east side of the mountain back then. Those who entered the east side of the mountain never came down."
Su Buqing lowered his eyes. He had the same thought, but it was clear that Lin Ruo and Zheng Yanfei were not the type to consider the big picture. These two women were the type to fight tooth and nail. If you provoked them, they would definitely find and kill all the enemies behind you. At this point, Zheng Yanfei had probably already given the information to Lin Ruo, but he didn't know if Lin Ruo believed it or not.
Seeing that Su Buqing remained silent, Chen Yu patted his shoulder harder. "It might not be a good thing for Lin Ruo to know this news. She is too prominent now. If she is at odds with so many people at the same time, even if she is very strong, it will be difficult for her to protect the entire eastern mountain. So sometimes, it is necessary to be a little confused."
“Captain,” Su Buqing looked up at Chen Yu, “I understand.”
Chen Yu nodded, "Let it go this time. But next time, remember to discuss it with me beforehand. We will definitely not hide anything from her that she needs to know, and we will tell her."
"yes!"
They talked for another half hour in the office. Just as Su Buqing was about to say goodbye to Chen Yu, there was a knock on the door.
Chen Yu tidied up the documents beside him, stood up, and was about to go to the training ground for superhumans when he heard a knock on the door. He casually called out, "Come in."
There was a superhuman outside. As the vice-captain, Su Buqing naturally knew this person. This person was a bodyguard who was specifically assigned to Chen Yu. Because Chen Yu was very strong, he was more like an assistant.
"Captain, we just received news that Sister Ruo went to the Longquan Base. All the high-ranking officials at that base who participated in yesterday's decision to attack the eastern mountain peak have been killed. There were eight dead in total..."
"What?!"
Chen Yu and Su Buqing both paused, turning to look at the superhuman. Their eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. The incident had only happened last night, and Lin Ruo had already arrived at the enemy's base today. The speed of her actions was astounding!
“We’ve investigated. The Dragon Power Base is the superpowered team that participated in the operation last night. When Brother Yue came back yesterday, he said that Sister Ruo happened to run into these people when she came back yesterday, and they arrested all of these superpowered teams. The Dragon Power Base was one of them.”
The superhuman reported all the information he had just found out, lowering his head to hide the smile on his lips. He felt a great sense of satisfaction; these people deserved to be dealt with like this.
Chen Yu took a deep breath and waved to the superhuman, "I know, you can go out now."
After the superhuman left, Chen Yu looked up at Su Buqing and said, "See? This is what happened after Lin Ruo found out."
Su Buqing pursed his lips. Although he could foresee the future development of the base from a strategic perspective, the death of an important high-ranking official would definitely cause turmoil in the base. Which of those superhumans would not want to take control of the base? While they were fighting each other, it was the ordinary people who would suffer.
However, he also felt that Lin Ruo had already exercised great restraint in this matter. She only killed seven people. It should be noted that when superhumans kill, accidental injuries are common due to the precision issues of their abilities. Therefore, none of them dare to say that they have not stained their hands with the blood of innocent people. In fact, some superhumans may do even worse things when they are too excited when they kill.
Simply put, once the murderous intent in one's heart is unleashed, it cannot be quickly contained. These superhumans will certainly be punished upon their return, but that will be all.
Lin Ruo went to seek revenge with a heart full of anger, yet she managed to kill only the person directly involved, which was already a great restraint for someone as powerful as her.
"She has been very restrained; only eight people died at the Longquan base."
Chen Yu sighed for the umpteenth time today. "Yes, only eight people died, but after that, who knows how many more will die at the Dragon Power Base due to the change of regime."
"That's inevitable. It's not her fault. Even without her, who can guarantee that these people would live to be a hundred?"
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from the doorway; it was Jiang Yue, who had come looking for Chen Yu once again.
He frowned deeply. "So, she can carry the bodies of the dead in the future? What about you? How many people have you killed? Don't those people you killed have families? If those families die in the apocalypse, are you going to be responsible for them too?"
Chen Yu looked towards the door and saw Jiang Yue. He rubbed his forehead in exasperation. Jiang Yue had always been biased towards Lin Ruo, always standing on her side.
Jiang Yue walked in and handed the documents in his hand to Su Buqing, who was standing at the door. "With such strong power, able to decide the life and death of everyone in a base at will, it's already good that she didn't implicate others. If it were me, I would have killed even more than her."
"How arrogant are these people going to be? You expect her to do nothing? Why don't you make her hand over the entire mountain?"
He finished speaking in rapid succession, and before Chen Yu could even turn around, he had already turned to leave.
As he was about to step out of the office, he added, "Don't judge others by your own standards; she's not you."
Su Buqing watched Jiang Yue leave, and as he watched his back, a subtle smile twitched at the corner of his mouth. He thought that Brother Yue was getting more and more handsome.
Chen Yu was rebuked by Jiang Yue, and scratched his forehead in annoyance. He turned to Su Buqing and said, "It's too late to suppress the news now. Go and gather the ability users in the team who are not on missions to the reception area and see if there is any unusual activity from the remaining ability teams."
“I’ll go find the base commander and discuss a solution. If Lin Ruo is going to cause trouble this time, it’s definitely not just Longquan Base. If these bases riot and gang up on Lin Ruo, it will be bad. If we add our B City base, the other side will be more wary.”
He then strode away quickly. Su Buqing blinked. So, was the captain handling the aftermath for Lin Ruo? It seems he wasn't entirely neutral after all?
