Hearing Si Kongchen ask about Yuan Tianxing, the other Deputy Chief of All Beings Base, Wei Haichao thought for a moment and responded, “No, not even a clue. You know, things about All Beings Base are always very mysterious. Perhaps, he was sent somewhere by Lu Tianyu for a secret mission.”
“That’s possible,” Si Kongchen nodded and said, “Alright, you can leave.”
Wei Haichao nodded and turned to leave Si Kongchen’s office.
At that time, in Wu Chengyue’s place, Wu Yueling and Teng were playing on the sofa in the living room while Wu Chengyue was sitting in the armchair nearby, reading some files. On the other side of the tea-table, the tall and st.u.r.dy Xiao Yunlong was sitting in another armchair with one side of his body facing the back of the chair.
“Teng, come here to your uncle,” Xiao Yunlong looked at Teng, who was crawling from side to side on the sofa.
Teng gave him a glance and asked with his baby voice, “Uncle Long, do you have a lot of free time?”
Xiao Yunlong shook his head and replied to the boy confusedly, “No. Why do you think that way?”
Teng took over the fat rabbit from Wu Yueling’s arms and sat down with his legs crossed. Then, he put the rabbit on his short legs and raised his head to look at Xiao Yunlong. “If you don’t have a lot of free time, why are you sitting here playing with me?”
Xiao Yunlong shrugged as he raised his brows and said, “I’m not here to play with you. I’m here to talk to your father.”
Teng kept looking at him and said, “You’ve been sitting here for quite a while. I haven’t heard you talking with my father about anything serious!”
Xiao Yunlong had sat there for half an hour already.
“Your father is reading the files. I’m waiting for him to finish. Besides, I was summoned by your father!” Xiao Yunlong spread his hands.
At that moment, Wu Chengyue raised his eyes from the files to glance at Xiao Yunlong and the boy. Then, he dropped his eyelids and kept reading. Teng turned down his lips corners and lowered his head, putting the rabbit back onto Wu Yueling’s thighs.
About ten minutes later, Wu Chengyue put the files in his hands on the tea table and looked at Xiao Yunlong, “Is something wrong with those people Lin Wenwen took away from our base?”
Xiao Yunlong shook his head and said, “Not so far. We haven’t found any of them doing anything suspicious. But, I think Si Kongchen will grasp this opportunity to put his people into All Beings Base.”
“Lin Feng won’t relax his vigilance about that,” said Wu Chengyue, “He’ll run a thorough background check for every one of those people, even though they were brought into his base by his little sister.”
“That’s right. Lin Feng has indeed been doing quite some work in the last couple of days,” Xiao Yunlong nodded and continued, “I guess Si Kongchen is so p.i.s.sed this time, knowing that all the people he sent to All Being Base are gone!”
Wu Chengyue put on a faint smile as he picked up the gla.s.s of water from the tea table, speaking smilingly, “Tell me about it. He heard the news yesterday before the team went underground. He was black as thunder, but he couldn’t do anything to vent his anger. I think he hates Lu Tianyu’s guts now, as well as All Beings Base.”
“He deserves it. He asked for it, didn’t he? He couldn’t find a chance to play a dirty trick on us, so he cast his eyes on All Beings Base. He probably thinks that All Beings Base is a small base with a small population, which can be destroyed easily,” Xiao Yunlong sneered. Si Kongchen had such a good plan, and the others knew well about it.
“He probably thought that way at first. However, after failing so many times and suffering so many bad consequences, I think he might have already gotten interested in the secret of All Beings Base. He isn’t stupid. He is just still underestimating them,” Wu Chengyue waved at Xiao Yunlong and a.n.a.lyzed the other’s current thoughts.
On hearing his words, Xiao Yunlong furrowed his brows slightly. As something crossed his mind, he quickly said to Wu Chengyue, “Are you saying that the more seriously he takes All Beings Base, the harder he’ll try to find out their secrets?”
“Yes. I think he’ll take some further actions,” Wu Chengyue nodded while thinking.
“Shall I tell Lin Feng to be careful?” Xiao Yunlong looked asked.
“I think All Beings Base won’t be broken so easily,” said Wu Chengyue, “And I guess Lin Feng will think of this too. Let’s see what other arrangements he’ll make.”
“Oh, so we don’t need to warn him?” Xiao Yunlong looked at him uncertainly.
Wu Chengyue nodded slightly and said, “We don’t need to worry about them. Currently, our first priority is to figure out Si Kongchen’s plan. Let’s find out what exactly he’s aiming at. He’s already in contact with some foreign bases. I wonder what secret weapon he’s gonna create next.”
Without a doubt, Si Kongchen would use those secret weapons on Sea City Base.
Xiao Yunlong knitted his brows into a deep frown, feeling a little frustrated. Ultimately, he let out a heavy sigh and said, “The problem is, they have their base guarded strictly. It’s a little difficult for us to gather useful information about them.”
He said ‘a little difficult’. Apparently, he intended to keep trying even though it was hard. He had to figure out what exactly Si Kongchen was planning on after all.
Si Kongchen was trying everything he could to get to the secrets of All Beings Base while Wu Chengyue and Xiao Yunlong were seeking for any possible method to find out Si Kongchen’s secrets. After Wei Haichao left, Si Kongchen stood up and walked out of his office. Getting into his car, he left Huaxia Base in secret and drove toward somewhere far away from the base.
An hour later, Si Kongchen’s car was parked somewhere around ninety miles away from Huaxia Base. It was a remote mountain area with thick and deep forests. Hiding in the thick mountain forest was a secret building that was strictly and secretly guarded.
Nothing unusual could be seen a mile around the entrance to the building, but in fact, the area was filled with powerful automatic machine guns. Any living beings that accidentally entered the area would be shot into pieces by those powerful weapons.
One weapon like that might not be able to hurt a zombie or a mutated beast at level-six efficiently, but when hundreds of weapons like that all focused on one prey, not even a level-six mutated beast could survive.
If a living being luckily avoided the bullets that came from those guns and approached the building further, the security system in the building would sense it when it was less than three hundred meters from the building. What came next would be another wave of machine-gun ma.s.s shooting with automatic aiming.
No matter how fast that living being could move, it wouldn’t possibly survive the rain of bullets.
