In the slightly dark conference room, twenty figures sat on both sides of a long table. The leading officer stood at the head of the table, waiting quietly.
Bai E was the last one to arrive. Looking at Bai E who opened the door and entered, a group of people were silent, and the atmosphere seemed a bit weird.
"Huh? Is there another one?" Someone broke the silence, his tone seemed to be pure curiosity.
No one answered.
There was amusement in everyone's eyes.
No one looks down upon anyone who joins an elite team of covert operations through the back door and wants to gain credit.
Bai E had a straight face and didn't say anything. He just glanced around and saw that there was an empty seat at the end of the long table. He walked over and sat down.
He knows that he will definitely not be welcomed in this team, and he will be looked down upon wherever he goes through the back door. This is normal.
Not to mention that everyone is risking their lives when they go on a mission, so there must be resentment in bringing someone else who is a "lagging behind".
But Bai E didn't want to let go of this rare opportunity to explore the ruins.
As for whether I will hold them back during the execution of the mission... I can only say that I will do my best.
The soldier sitting next door looked at Bai E with a smile, as if he wanted to get acquainted, "How were you chosen, brother? Marksmanship? Or assassination? He can't be an information specialist, right?"
"..."
Gregory frowned slightly and stopped the teasing, "Okay, everyone is here, then I will get straight to the point."
The leader, who had his hands on the table, leaned slightly and glanced at the teammates who were about to follow him on the mission.
While he was talking, the projector behind him also displayed the picture in a timely manner——
A square building covered with ivy occupies most of the screen. Only a small half of the building is exposed on the surface, and the remaining main body is buried underground at an unknown depth.
With a gentle "click" sound, the photos rotated, and several architectural photos from different angles appeared.
The style is different from the architectural styles Bai E has seen since he came to this world, and is full of a cold mechanical beauty.
The silver-gray building has stood for thousands of years without falling down.
Bai E's eyes narrowed slightly and he noticed the shooting time in the upper left corner of the photo - 2:32:16 pm on August 3, 398 in the Imperial New Calendar.
It has been more than forty years ago.
"This is the closest set of photos we have to the target time of the mission. You can also see that it is more than 40 years ago. The information found above said that the people occupying the target location are a group of antiques from hundreds of years ago -
—Cybroids. But whether their vitality is enough to sustain them until now is still unknown.”
Holding a combat plan in his hand, the officer suddenly smashed it on the table with a loud "snap", "This is the combat plan I got against the biochemicals, but it may not be used. In fact, for the mission
We have not understood the internal situation of the target for hundreds of years, so..."
The leader's tone was low, and his eyes slowly swept across all the soldiers under his command, "No one knows what will be waiting for us in the target building. It may be those brainless orcs, it may be insects... or it may be nothing at all.
.I have only one request for everyone - obey the command! I know that you are all absolute elites drawn from various teams in the military camp. You may not have known me before, but it doesn't matter, we will get to know each other gradually on the way. If
Anyone who has any objections can raise it now. After departure, anyone who disobeys orders will be dealt with by military law on the spot. Do you understand?"
There was a slight silence, and then all the soldiers answered in unison, almost tacitly, "Understood!"
First establish your own prestige, and then you can arrange the details. Soldiers who are strangers to each other need to cooperate to perform tasks. The most taboo is not having a unified brain.
After receiving the overall response, the leading officer looked satisfied before continuing.
"Okay, now we are beginning to understand this plan. Although it may not be useful, you all need to keep it in mind! The goal of our combat operation this time is to restart the Internet root server located underground in the target building...
"
"... Now to arrange the combat plan, I know that each of you is good at different directions, but I need you to not only take care of your own responsibilities, but also cooperate with your teammates to complete more combat arrangements..."
"...Finally, let's talk about the accompanying personnel who need to be protected and cooperated in this operation - Minister Leacock of the City Information Department, and his assistant Miss Aryan. Remember, unless it is the final stage of restarting the server, during their
Cooperate as much as possible when help is needed. Other than that, they are simply our protection targets... targets that need to be protected with your life, but don't let their orders affect any of your decisions! Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Okay. One last thing. I know that everyone here has some unique skills, so...if you need any special supplies, you can submit them to me now, and I will put them together and apply. I emphasize that it will not consume your military merit.
, After working in the military camp for so many years, I still have this little bit of face!"
The commander's tone was slightly playful at the last moment, and some soldiers with a slightly more lively personality cheered in the conference room, which had been suppressed.
"Wuhu!"
"Sir, you are awesome!"
Really awesome.
Bai E is not polite, and he doesn't care whether they want to see him or not. Anyway, he wants to get all 500 arrows first!
"Too many..." Looking at the application submitted by Bai E, the captain's face turned slightly dark and he operated manually, "200 sticks is almost enough."
"All right."
It’s better than nothing…
As for other machine guns, pistols, sabers, daggers, chainsaws, swords, triangular spikes, alloy shields, etc., they are all basic military supplies and do not require special application.
"Okay." Looking at the things he needed to apply for, the leader, Gregory, raised his eyebrows unconsciously, "That's it for the basic arrangements. Let's go back and prepare to have an early rest. Tonight may be the time for you to attend the meeting in the future.
I can spend the most peaceful night. Let’s gather and set off at six o’clock tomorrow morning!”
"Yes, sir!"
After leaving the conference room, Bai E wanted to find Yueying.
His physical attributes didn't grow much, but the explosion of the over-limit drive gave him some foundation and confidence to learn the "Fixing Wind" technique... It's a pity that he didn't find it.
I can only honestly return to the tent in the living area.
Carefully maintaining the guns, bow strings, and daggers, Bai E felt peaceful in his heart while doing these things.
Although the unknown awaits ahead, it seems nothing to be afraid of.

The early morning light penetrated into the tent through the cracks, and Bai E tried his best to put on his equipment without disturbing others...
"Click!" Ji Kuo bites.
The jet-black combat uniform perfectly protected Bai E's body. A Sand Eagle pistol was ready for use at his waist. The matte black paint dagger in the scabbard on his calf was ready for bloodthirsty. The quiver was carried on his back, and the compound bow was hung on his back.
At his waist, five magazines filled with bullets were inserted into the multifunctional pocket on his belt, and a heavy machine gun was held in front of his chest.
Almost armed to the teeth.
Holding his combat helmet with his left arm, Bai E turned around one last time and glanced at his four teammates who were still sleeping soundly in the tent.
This operation was a secret operation. Even if there was a slight rumor in the military camp about the previous selection, the actual participants were obviously not allowed to take the initiative to disclose any information.
The farewell is quiet.
The moment the curtain was lifted, the four sleeping figures quietly opened their eyes.
The four of them said nothing as they watched people go to the empty bed.
Wish him a safe journey.
…
In the early morning, at 6:05, three specially modified off-road vehicles drove out from the south gate of the military camp, kicking up dust along the way.
