BXBX NOVEL Chapter 456 - 456: Meeting
Former Days Eastern Supply Area.
In the manor of the Death Star Number Three Domain Combat Team. Before dawn, Feng Qi had already washed up and left the residence. Today, he did not undergo high-intensity physical training as usual. Instead he went straight to the commander’s office.
Pushing open the door, he saw the owner of the fog flipping through the today’s news on combat teams.
He came to the desk and sat down. He looked at the owner of the fog and said, “Don’t you have a meeting this morning? When do you plan to leave?” The owner of the fog looked up with a smile.
“I’m ready to set off now. You don’t have to come with me. Stay behind and organize the combat preparations for the escort mission.”
Alright. Feng Qi agreed without hesitation.
After chatting for a while, it was seven in the morning.
At this moment, the owner of the fog stood up and left the commander’s office, heading to the recruitment hall for a meeting.
It was the commander-in-chief of this joint escort mission.
At this meeting, it needed to explain the situation to the combat teams who were participating in the mission.
After it left, Feng Qi came to the commander’s seat and sat down.
After some thought, he took out a cell phone from his backpack.
He cleared the fingerprint lock, facial recognition, voice recognition… Finally the cell phone interface appeared.
This cell phone was specially used to contact the Scarlet Research Institute. There were a total of two systems inside.
If unlocked it with his thumb at the beginning, it would enter the normal interface.
If he unlocked it with his index finger, he would enter the second encrypted interface that he could use to contact the Scarlet Research Institute.
He opened the contact list and dialed Wei Wei’s number.
After waiting for a while, the call went through. Wei Wei’s familiar voice came from the other end.
Next, Feng Qi explained to Wei Wei in detail what he had encountered in the days after leaving the Scarlet Research Institute.
A few hours later, he hung up and opened the contact list again.
He found the “Brain Guard” contact and dialed it.
After waiting for a long time, the call was picked up, but there was no sound from the other end.
Feng Qi said,
“Where are you now?”
In response to his question, an aged voice came from the other end of the line. “The Atlans Hotel in the Former Days Eastern Supply Area. It is not far from the manor of the Death Star Number Three Domain Combat Team where you are. We can arrive in ten minutes at the earliest.”
“Do you know about the latest joint escort operation?”
“I’ve already obtained relevant information, including the information you left behind at the Scarlet Research Institute. I basically understand what happened… Are you going to participate in this operation again?” Feng Qi nodded and said,
“There’s a high chance that I’ll participate in this operation. If anything happens during this period, be prepared to pick up my brain.”
“Don’t worry, even if I have to give up my old life, I will send your brain back to Scarlet.”
“You’ve worked hard.”
“This is our mission. Everything is to create our ideal future. We will be your staunch companions.”
“Thank you very much.”
Feng Qi hung up at this moment.
The reason he made this call was to get the team guarding the brain to be prepared in advance.
This operation was filled with danger. The owner of the fog could not even take care of itself. It was very likely that he would die midway.
He could not avoid death, but he needed to preserve his brain as much as possible.
The information he had told Wei Wei was only a part of his experience.
If he really wanted to share all the details, three days and three nights would not be enough.
He still had to rely on reading memories.
It was noon, but the owner of the fog had yet to return.
Feng Qi picked up the phone and called the commanders of the various combat teams.
After lunch that afternoon, the warriors were fully armed and gathered in the center of the manor.
After the commanders of the various teams reported the situation, Feng Qi began to give a series of orders.
The escort mission was about to begin. The combat teams needed to coordinate supplies in advance, carry out equipment inspection, maintenance, and so on. It was to make sufficient preparations for the upcoming joint escort operation. After the captains of the various teams led the warriors to get busy Feng Qi walked towards the armory and prepared to check on the maintenance.
Recruitment hall.
Conference room.
In the blue and white decorated space, there was a large round table made of metal.
There were a total of 30 seats.
After waiting for the entire morning, almost all combat teams participating in this joint operation had arrived.
There were a total of 15 combat teams, many of which had specially rushed over from other frontline supply areas.
Li Duo, who was sitting at the front, looked at his watch and then looked at everyone present.
“Xiao Hu called me from the airport. The members of the Dawn Domain Combat Team have arrived. They rushed over as soon as they finished their mission. Everyone, please be patient.”
Hearing this, everyone’s expressions remained the same.
They were already used to such situations. Sometimes, urgent joint missions were like this.
Many combat teams would hurriedly rush off to the next mission when they had just returned to thebase.
At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open.
Mu Qing, who was wearing a white battle suit, arrived.
After entering, her gaze swept across everyone present.
Her gaze focused on the owner of the fog.
She felt that this person’s aura seemed a little familiar.
However, she could not remember where she had seen him before.
The masked owner of the fog immediately felt a terrifying pressure sweep over, but this pressure paused for a moment before dissipating.
The owner of the fog was even mentally prepared to forcefully break out and escape.
The first stage to clear in seizing the blood stone was Mu Qing.
If Mu Qing recognized it, there was no need to continue with the subsequent plan.
As for the identity of “Wang Yi”, he naturally had to abandon it.
Compared to its own life, everything seemed to be less important.
Fortunately, Mu Qing only looked at it for a short while and quickly looked away.
Sweat dripped from its forehead as it pretended to be calm.
“Commander Mu, you’re late.”
“Apologies, I just finished the previous mission and saw the emergency request
for help. Sorry to keep everyone waiting.”
Mu Qing had lost her childishness. The adorable look on her face was no longer there, and her body radiated confidence.
Years of living on the front line had made her mature and steady.
The nurturing of blood and fire made her incomparably powerful mentally.
She expressionlessly went to the empty seat and sat down. Then, she looked at Li Duo, who was sitting at the front.
“Supervisor Li, let’s begin.”
When Li Duo heard this, he immediately nodded and pressed the button on the conference table.
Immediately, a virtual image projected from the center of the conference table, and the appearance of a blood stone appeared.
Next, he began to explain the origin and effects of the blood stone in detail as well as the series of snatching incidents after its appearance.
After an hour of narration, Li Duo stood up and said with a solemn expression, “Everyone, this blood stone can even affect the development of our human civilization. I beg you here to send the blood stone to the Former Days City.” “Next is the plan of the escort operation. Commander-in-chief Wang Yi will explain it to everyone in detail.”
With that, Li Duo returned to his seat.
At this moment, the owner of the fog stood up.
After glancing at Mu Qing, it began to talk about the escort plan it had drawn up.
When it saw Mu Qing arrive, it already realized that the difficulty seizing the
blood stone during this escort had greatly increased.
However, it was not completely impossible.
What it needed was to create chaos and muddy the waters.
Only chaos could give it a chance to absorb the blood stone into its body.
Therefore, in terms of route planning, it would naturally set up the route wherever there was a chance for a chaotic battle.
During the discussion, Mu Qing did not say anything.
The other commanders would express their opinions from time to time and
have discussions to modify the routes.
After several hours of discussion, the meeting was adjourned.
After walking out of the meeting room, the owner of the fog was about to return to the manor when a voice stopped it from behind.
“Commander Wang Yi.”
It slowly turned around at this moment.
When it saw Mu Qing standing behind him with a smile, its expression instantly froze.
“What’s the matter?” It pretended to be calm.
“Commander Wang Yi, have we ever cooperated in a previous joint operation?”
“No.” The owner of the fog’s tone was calm, and there was no sign of nervousness.
“I made a mistake. I’m sorry.” Mu Qing nodded and apologized.
Looking at its back as it turned around and left, a hint of doubt appeared in Mu Qing’s eyes.
The aura on Wang Yi’s body made her feel like she had seen it somewhere before, but she couldn’t remember where.
After thinking for a moment, she stopped thinking and left the recruitment hall.
Two days later.
Today was the day the escort mission began.
Before dawn, Feng Qi and the owner of the fog had already gathered the members of the combat teams and started to transport supplies and equipment.
After busying themselves for a long time, with the order of the owner of the fog, the warriors set off towards the plaza of the recruitment hall.
Along the way.
Looking at the owner of the fog who was already wearing a mask, a smile appeared on Feng Qi’s face.
He thought about yesterday’s meeting.
In the words of the owner of the fog, the entire meeting was a false alarm.
It was tense the entire time and was prepared to escape at any time. It even thought of abandoning everything here and starting over again.
Fortunately, Mu Qing did not recognize it, who was wearing a mask. It could also be said that Mu Qing did not remember his aura back then. This was undoubtedly good news.
At the very least, the plan to seize the blood stone could continue. It would not end prematurely before it began.
But now, there was another problem that made Feng Qi uneasy.
How should he face Mu Qing?
He could actually choose not to participate in the joint escort operation.
This way, he could avoid meeting Mu Qing and reduce the risk of death during the escort mission.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he decided to accompany the owner of the fog.
This joint escort operation might have changed because of his appearance He could not guarantee that the latter would survive this crisis.
Of course, he was not confident that he could protect it.
However, at the very least, if he gave it his all and even fought at the price of abandoning his physical body, he could still create conditions for it to survive. The owner of the fog’s value was divided into three aspects.
If he did not die, neither would it. In the future, he would be able to follow it infiltrate the Tiger Soul Research Institute and learn many historical secrets.
If he died and Fog did not, the plan would switch to Lin Ran possessing the latter.
In the future, the owner of the fog could become his combat strength to seize the abilities of domain creatures.
Or perhaps, get Lin Ran to give up on possession in this timeline and face the owner of the fog directly.
Given his relationship with the owner of the fog, he would definitely be able to learn a lot of secrets.
Perhaps 1,500 years later, the owner of the fog had already relied on its own efforts to learn many secrets. These secrets were very valuable to him.
In short, no matter what, he could die, but the owner of the fog could not. Otherwise, all his previous efforts would undoubtedly be in vain. Whether he died or not, the owner of the fog had corresponding value. Therefore, even if he had to risk his life, he had to ensure its survival and create favorable information or value for his other self.
While in thought, he arrived at the square in front of the recruitment hall. Military vehicles that had arrived early had already lined up neatly and gathered in the square.
Feng Qi was also wearing a black iron mask like the warriors of the Death Star Domain Combat Team Group. He did not stand out in the battle formation. However, he was still a little worried that Mu Qing would recognize him. At this thought, he turned to look in the direction of the Dawn Domain Combat Team.
At this moment, Mu Qing, who was chatting with the various commanders in the distance, seemed to have sensed something and suddenly turned to look at him.
After briefly looking at each other, a trace of doubt appeared on Mu Qing’s face.
