When Chen Yu arrived, he briefly relayed Novi's statement, and immediately the sound of someone slamming their fist on the table echoed in the conference room.
"These people are so depraved! We haven't even investigated their previous establishment of an experimental base in our country, and now they want to test poisons on our territory!"
"I'm afraid their actions don't stop there. Novy is a core member of the M country base, and his capture will definitely be known immediately. Perhaps they will have more targeted plans afterward, so we must be careful."
"Now that the mastermind behind those experimental bases has been exposed, what should we do?"
"No need to even think about it! They've come to bully us right on our doorstep! We definitely have to take them down! The US has been up to no good even before the apocalypse, and now that it's the apocalypse, they've only gotten worse."
"We don't know anything about their military strength, but just from Novi's level, we can tell that their ability users are at a higher level than ours..."
"Don't back down just because you can't win!"
Different voices had begun to emanate from the office, but Ye Lin, who was sitting at the front, remained silent until the people were about to bang on the table. Then he said in a deep voice, "Alright, stop arguing."
He turned to look at Chen Yu and Jiang Yue, who were also silent, and said, "You haven't said anything. If you have something on your mind, you can speak it out."
"With our current strength, we are indeed no match for them. Judging from the weapons they mentioned in Novi's confession, they should not be as advanced as ours, so we still have a chance of winning. However, the enemy has a large number of level 5 ability users, and there are even level 6 ability users among them. We can fight, but we cannot rush in rashly. We still need to plan carefully."
"Novi has confessed that they have developed a drug in their base that can rapidly enhance a person's potential and level up quickly. Although this has great risks, it has indeed significantly improved their combat effectiveness."
Jiang Yue remained silent. As the legion commander, he naturally wanted to fight, but he also knew that even if there was a battle, he could not participate.
Just as Jiang Yue was feeling somewhat regretful, Ye Lin suddenly asked, "How likely do you think Lin Ruo is to join?"
Jiang Yue looked up at Ye Lin, his brows furrowing. "This is a war between two countries, a conflict of national and personal vendettas. Why drag Sister Ruo into this?"
Ye Lin looked at him, her gaze unwavering. "You know what kind of person Lin Ruo is. Although she hates trouble, she always faces it head-on and solves it at its root. This time, she's one of the targets. Do you think she'll let this go?"
Jiang Yue suddenly realized that his attention had been focused on the conflict between the United States and China, and he had overlooked what Novey said about the other side already stirring up public opinion and targeting Lin Ruo.
At this moment, Chen Yu spoke up, "Ever since Lin Ruo took charge of those experimental bases, I've had a feeling that she must have some grudge against these people, which is why she's been so proactive."
"So even if she doesn't cooperate with us to deal with the Three Kingdoms Alliance this time, she will have her own methods. It's just a matter of not knowing what she will do."
Upon hearing this, the senior executives in the office all breathed a sigh of relief.
Although these people rarely go on missions, the ability users who cooperated with Lin Ruo at the experimental base last time described the scene at that time. They thought the mission would result in a lot of casualties, but they didn't even have to lift a finger.
In the current situation, no matter what Lin Ruo decides, it will definitely cause huge losses to the other side. If they can cooperate with Lin Ruo again, the war that seemed difficult to win just now seems too easy. They would not be afraid even if the other side tied several countries together.
200% win rate!
They didn't know what Lin Ruo's true strength was like, but they were confident in that.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming more relaxed, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Ye Lin frowned slightly. In these kinds of meetings, outsiders usually don't disturb them unless it's something very important.
"Come in."
A superhuman opened the door; it was the superhuman next to Ye Lin.
"What's wrong?" Ye Lin frowned even more when he saw it was him. This man was always very measured, so for him to do something like this meant that things were serious.
After the superhuman entered, he first saluted the high-ranking people in the room, and then looked at Ye Lin. After Ye Lin nodded, he lowered his head and said, "I just received news that superhumans from the United States are contacting the base chiefs of various bases. Because it is a secret meeting between the two sides, we do not know what they discussed. We only know that when they came out, both sides were very friendly and amicable."
The moment these words were spoken, the relaxed atmosphere in the meeting room vanished, and everyone's faces darkened. The purpose of the US contacting the major bases at this time was obvious: to put them in a pincer movement, attacking them from both inside and outside.
“The base commanders of these bases won’t agree, will they?” A high-ranking officer took a few deep breaths to temporarily suppress his anger before hesitatingly speaking, “Can’t they tell who the bad guys are?”
Jiang Yue said in a deep voice, "No one can guarantee whether they can resist the temptation of profit. Traitors have emerged one after another throughout history. What was their motivation?"
Ye Lin clenched his fists, a fierce glint in his eyes. In such an extreme apocalyptic situation, instead of thinking about how to unite and survive, they were fighting for fame and profit and starting a war.
"Investigate and see which bases are affiliated with the US bases. From the moment we received the definite information, we cut off all cooperation with this base. The air defense system is fully activated to intercept all unidentified aircraft. We won't allow a single unidentified aircraft to fly over. I want to see how the US will transport the supplies they provide!"
The high-ranking officials present, upon hearing Ye Lin's orders, knew that he was utterly enraged. He could accept these people fighting amongst themselves, but he could not accept them colluding with outsiders and secretly sabotaging his own organization.
As a result, these bases will likely bring disaster to both high-ranking officials and ordinary people.
After the meeting, the entire military force of the base began to move. Thousands of fighter jets from the B City base patrolled outside every day, covering a very wide area, basically covering an area of several thousand kilometers in radius.
The ordinary survivors in the base didn't understand what it meant, but they instinctively realized that something big was about to happen.
Many ordinary survivors stayed in their houses and never left except for necessary actions.
But people still have to live. If they don't come out to do missions when it's time, where will the supplies come from?
Li Wei and Zhao Hui are among these ordinary people who have been secretly observing the situation of various forces in the base. They are now cooperating with the Fox Hunting Team, going out every day to hunt some mutated animals or take on some missions issued by the base.
Thanks to the help of the Fox Hunting Squad, their status at the base has improved considerably. In addition, with the influence of Lin Ruo and Zheng Yanfei from the Special Abilities Team, they can also come into contact with the captains of various factions, making them more aware of the movements within the base.
They sent all the messages they received in real time to Lin Ruo.
Lin Ruo glanced at it only once before stuffing the terminal back into her pocket. "It seems that war is not far off."
