Chapter 2969: Chapter 2969: The True Purpose
"The key to the problem lies here. The nature of things changes when you dare to make a move against Boss Liu," Lin Yi said:
"Although thereās no immediate danger to life, itās still better to get there as soon as possible."
"What about Brother Qiang and Sister Ying? Both of them have reached C-level, and they are the main combat strength apart from you."
Lin Yi remained silent in contemplation. After a long pause, he spoke:
"This matter is somewhat complicated, but I couldnāt really figure out the pros and cons. Letās treat them as an insurance card and not involve them in our actions."
"Oh, understood."
Soon, the plane took off.
Lin Yi remained silent and didnāt speak.
As they were about to land, he sent a message and assigned other tasks, not requiring them to act together.
After the plane landed, part of Group 3 also gathered at the airport.
A little later, at around three in the morning, everyone except Sui Qiang and Yu Siying had gathered and boarded Lin Yiās private jet.
"Fly to Bulage first?"
Seeing the flight path, Ning Che said in surprise.
"Itās closer to Dresden, about a hundred kilometers away. We can drive over. The situation is unclear now, so infiltrating slowly is safer." Lin Yi said:
"Letās first talk about the situation on the ground. Whatās going on exactly?"
"After hearing the Ninth Departmentās findings, Boss Liu went to the local base intending to hold a meeting and deploy tasks but got followed in the process," Ning Che said.
"Thatās unlikely," Lin Yi said:
"Although he practices Immortal Cultivation daily in the office, he still has skills. An ordinary person canāt follow him."
"So my guess is that the base might have been watched long ago, and they seized this opportunity to act," Ning Che said:
"Thatās roughly the situation now."
"Did they have a conflict?"
"The front and back doors were sealed off, leading to a small-scale conflict," Ning Che said:
"The other side has weapons, so Boss Liu and the local colleagues didnāt dare to act."
"Well prepared indeed," Lin Yi muttered, then said:
"Can we still contact Boss Liu?"
"The signal is jammed, so contact is only occasional, but from the situation on the ground, itās not too bad. They should find a way to contact us."
"With Boss Liu overseeing, the problem shouldnāt be too big," Lin Yi said:
"So the next step is to find out who the mastermind is."
Ning Che shrugged, "I canāt think of anyone other than the Gongyuan Association."
"But the problem is that itās the Ninth Departmentās headquarters. As a public organization, they wouldnāt ignore it if Boss Liu just made a call."
Lin Yiās words, to some extent, served as a wake-up call for Ning Che.
"You mean the people from the Ninth Department know about this but chose not to help?"
"No, things could be worse than you imagine."
After a pause, Lin Yi said:
"You could imagine this was a conspiracy arranged from the very beginning."
"Conspiracy!"
"Exactly!" Lin Yi said:
"If I remember correctly, the Ninth Department originally planned for our entire team to go over, right?"
"Indeed, but the regiment didnāt agree, so Boss Liu went instead," Ning Che said:
"But if something like this happens at Boss Liuās level, the nature of the issue changes."
Everyone listened carefully, understanding what Ning Che meant.
In terms of personal ability, Lin Yi was stronger than Liu Hong.
But Liu Hongās rank was far above Lin Yi.
If Lin Yi died, the most severe retaliation might come from his father.
But if Liu Hong died, it would be a direct affront!
This enormous war machine might start operating, shaking the entire world.
"I also thought of this, but thereās a problem weāve overlooked."
Ning Che said nothing, waiting for Lin Yi to continue.
"Think about it. Weāve clashed with the Gongyuan Association many times, but weāve always gained the upper hand."
"Not only have I killed several Grand Wardens, but the Execution Team members have also been killed. Adding the previous Storm Team, theyāve lost face. If they donāt do something, they canāt restore their reputation worldwide."
"You mean they really intend to target Boss Liu?"
"Yes, that would settle the score."
"Does the Gongyuan Association really have the guts?"
"Of course not, but Anglo does," Lin Yi said:
"Although the Ninth Department relies on support from various countries to keep operating, their independence is quite strong. They wouldnāt do this for the Gongyuan Association, but if Anglo is the perpetrator, it makes sense."
"If it really is Anglo, this becomes complicated."
"Donāt be so pessimistic yet; this is just my speculation," Lin Yi said:
"At least the current situation isnāt as bad as you think."
"Honestly, Iām a bit confused by their tactics too. Theyāve only surrounded them without further actions."
"Thatās because theyāve learned military strategy. This is called āPlease the Monarch Inside the Urn.ā
"Theyāre waiting for us to go over?"
"Thatās a possibility."
"I know Anglo is strong, but saying they can face Yan Country and your father at the same time, I donāt believe it."
"But donāt forget, we have the new ore. If they capture us and Boss Liu, do you think they might use us as leverage to exchange for the ore?"
"Damn, so thatās their real intention."
"Thatās why I say not to doubt their ambition and not to underestimate Angloās courage. Not only us and Boss Liu, but even Elder Lu, theyād dare to stir up trouble."
Lin Yi stretched and said:
"Thatās about all I can analyze for now. Letās not stay tense; the situation isnāt that dire. At least, thereās no danger to life."
"Alright, find a place to rest. We have over ten hours of flight, so letās conserve our energy."
Ning Ning called out, and people from Group 2 and Group 3 found places to rest.
Afterward, Ning Che turned off the lights in the cabin.
The cabin fell into darkness and silence.
Lin Yi sat in the chair with his eyes closed, resting silently.
As a comrade fighting alongside, Ning Che knew Lin Yi needed time to think.
How to handle the upcoming tasks and what results could be achieved all depended on what solutions he could come up with.
Ning Che lit a cigarette, rubbing her temples.
After spending so much time together, she felt her brain was getting dull.
Quietly, Ning Che watched Lin Yi.
The starry sky outside, with its dim light, shone upon his profile.
Leaving an impression of profound depth.
