"We have recently captured 23 scouts, and more than 6 'lurkers' have been exposed again. Their targets are all the locations of the 'Kilin Main Ship'."
Cortana said, looking at the wave wheel.
"There's something else going on over there with Emily, I'll go check it out."
Bo Lun said very wisely.
Cortana watched the young man approach Emily.
"The second son of the Bolun family?"
"It's even better than the rumors say."
Cortana commented.
"Among the young people I know, he should be among the best, both in terms of ability and potential."
Jason once again expressed his evaluation without hesitation.
Then, he raised his head and looked at Cortana.
He remembered that the 'Qilin Main Ship' should be at a nearby secret base, and this secret base should not be a secret to the 'lurkers' of the Sabi people.
Could it be?!
Suddenly Jason thought of a possibility.
Cortana noticed Jason's expression.
The adjutant nodded and said directly.
"Just like you, Master Chief, that 'Kilin Main Ship' is just an empty shell."
"In other words, it is indeed a third-generation battleship."
"However, the 'Kirin Main Ship' is the fourth generation - it is the latest main battleship we built based on the technology of the Sabi people and the knowledge of the mysterious side of the ground, with the help of a member of the 'Immortal Diamond'!
"
"It's our true secret weapon."
Having said this, the adjutant paused and his voice began to become deeper.
"But, it was 'discovered'."
Discover?
Not being ‘targeted’?
Jason keenly noticed the description in Cortana's words.
"What do you mean by 'discovery'?"
Jason asked.
"In our plan, in tomorrow's recruit expedition plan, the 'Kilin Main Ship' stand-in that has always been semi-public will take off and return to the lunar base, while the real 'Kilin Main Ship' will be hidden in the dark, giving
A deadly attack with the Sabi Stars, but the Sabi Stars may have 'discovered' it, and they began to send out scouts non-stop, and the 'lurkers' who hid deeper began to appear one after another."
"and……"
"General Leal Funo suffered an assassination yesterday!"
Cortana revealed some news that surprised Jason.
There is no doubt that General Real Fourno is one of the backbones of the 'ground'. Although he is not the person with the highest power, he is a 'spiritual leader' to a certain extent. If he is assassinated, it will be a big blow to the 'ground'.
What a disaster.
"Is the injury serious?"
Jason asked.
Since Cortana can sit here and discuss tomorrow's 'New Recruit Expedition' with him, it proves that the old general is still alive.
"Not too serious."
"Just one shot in the right arm."
"The person who assassinated the old general was one of his aides."
"A person who would have been impossible to betray the ground."
"Moreover, he is not controlled by a 'lurker'."
When Cortana said this, her eyes became sharp.
Rape!
Undoubtedly a traitor!
Moreover, there is a traitor at the top of the 'ground'.
Jason's brows suddenly wrinkled.
He knew very well what this meant.
The secrets and arrangements of the 'ground' will be known to the Sabi people.
The battle situation, which already has no advantage, may once again fall into an extremely passive situation.
"Is the real 'Kilin Main Ship' very powerful?"
After Jason thought for a moment, he brought the topic back to the 'Kilin Main Ship'.
It is obvious that the root of all problems now is the ‘Kilin Main Ship’.
Whether it was the Sabi people's reconnaissance, lurking, or subsequent assassination, it was all for the 'Kilin Main Ship'.
And it can be hidden so deeply by the "ground".
And to be so valued by the Sabi people.
Jason became quite curious about the ‘Kilin Main Ship’.
"Very powerful."
"As long as the timing is right."
"Enough to turn the tide of the war."
Cortana answered like this.
"So what do I need to do?"
Jason asked after nodding.
He did not ask more about the 'Kilin Main Ship'.
Because he knew it was impossible for Cortana to say.
And with the 'Recruit Expedition' tomorrow, Cortana cannot stay here for a long time.
Jason himself is not a person who likes to talk in circles.
Under this premise, he got to the point very simply.
"To ensure that the 'Recruit Expedition' goes as smoothly as possible, we speculate that the Sabi people will take risks and destroy the ceremony of the 'Recruit Expedition', forcing us to show the true 'Kilin Main Ship' - when the 'Recruit Expedition' is destroyed
, We who urgently need to restore our morale must need new weapons to appear, and what else is more suitable than the 'Kilin Main Ship'?"
"However, this is also our opportunity."
"An opportunity to completely wipe out the rear."
"And this requires your cooperation. We need you to appear at the ceremony of the 'Recruit Expedition' as one of the top combat forces."
Cortana looked at Jason with pleading in her eyes.
"good."
Jason nodded without hesitation.
He himself is inseparable from the 'ground' camp.
Not to mention, his main mission is closely related to the "ground".
He will help you both emotionally and rationally.
"Very good."
"We will count the merits three times."
"If you have any requests, you can make them now."
Cortana laughed.
"arms!"
"Enough heavy weapons."
"It also needs to be sufficiently concealed."
Jason said no more.
However, Jason believed Cortana would understand what he meant.
In fact, this is also the case.
Cortana understood Jason's thoughts almost instantly.
Her eyes swept over the three Johns without leaving any trace.
However, Cortana didn't say anything more, but stood up and left.
Jason sent Cortana out of the 'fortress'. When Jason returned again, John, Brian, and McCall were already sitting on the sofa on one side of the living room, waiting for him.
There is no real meeting room in the 'Fortress'.
But this small area with four sofas and a small round coffee table is regarded as a conference area by default.
Especially when three of the four people are sitting in it, it naturally means that a meeting is about to take place.
"Our suspicions came true."
After Jason sat down, McCall spoke first.
The former private detective sighed and shrugged as he spoke, his face full of helplessness.
"Well, the alliance on the ground is more riddled with holes than we imagined."
Brian, the old father, looked solemn. He took a deep breath and looked at his daughter Kemi in the distance.
John habitually remained silent and just raised his hand to touch Daisy's head.
However, John's eyes were implicitly sharp.
Anyone who is familiar with John knows that John is in danger at this time.
When they learned the facts about the Sabi Stars, John and Jason discussed how the Sabi Stars found the ground. There were probably only two of them.
1. Discovered accidentally.
2. Someone leads the way.
Compared to the latter, Jason and John believe in the latter more.
And if it's the latter, the situation of the 'ground' alliance is dire.
Because according to the original situation, the most likely people on the ground to come into contact with the Sabi people were the people who landed on the moon, and it had been decades since the ground first landed on the moon.
In the past few decades, the "ground" has landed on the "lunar surface" more than 10 times.
And these people have all become powerful or famous because of the honor of "landing on the moon".
To put it simply, if there are traitors among these people, the 'ground' will become fragile, like an undefended back garden, allowing the Sabi people to enter and exit.
Unfortunately, their guess was correct.
"But there is hope."
John suddenly spoke.
The gloomy, silent middle-aged man touched Daisy's head and looked out the window.
At this time, the sun is about to set.
The afterglow of the setting sun painted a dazzling red on the sky. The sky that was not completely dark was dark blue, which had a special sense of layering.
The closer to the sunset, the bluer it becomes.
Raising his head and looking at the sky like this, John took a deep breath.
"At least I like it here."
"I like the sky like this."
"Love my bed."
"Also like the food I can eat."
"I don't want any bastard to ruin this."
John rarely spoke a series of words.
Jason, Brian, and McCall looked at each other and smiled.
"Although the situation is terrible, fortunately, the number of traitors should be quite small!"
McCall said directly.
There was no objection from anyone present.
There must be very few traitors on the ground.
Most likely there is only one.
Because, if the number of traitors was large, there would be no need for such a 'step-by-step' process.
It will no longer be impossible to find the ‘Kilin Main Ship’.
A "coup" with a new face, using the characteristics of "lurkers" to control more leaders on the "ground", is enough to make the Sabi people the masters of the "ground" in a short period of time.
And these?
None of it happened.
"Who do you think it could be?"
Brian thought.
McCall also frowned.
"You two, can you take care of us two?"
"We don't have the 'career' you had before. We can contact those people's names and write them down."
Jason reminded Brian, McCall.
"I'll write down the list."
McCall said immediately.
And just as McCall was writing the list, Pulse and Emily walked over.
"Sir Jason, do you need to go to the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' for dinner?"
"Of course, I'll invite you."
"This is what we agreed on."
The young man smiled sincerely.
Faced with such a smile, it was really hard for Jason to refuse.
He looked at the three Johns.
"John, Brian, and McCall have given me great inspiration in the skills of 'Silver Glory'. It is too simple to treat me to a meal. I hope that you three can often
Come to the 'Eating and Wine Pavilion'."
"As long as I am the owner of the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' for a day."
"You three, like Sir Jason, can come and eat at any time."
Bo Lun immediately looked at the three Johns with a smile.
As he spoke, the young man performed an ancient ritual.
"'Eating and Drinking Pavilion'?"
Brian was a little moved.
As a 'qualified father', he hopes to take his daughter to a restaurant for a meal.
Unfortunately this wish never came true.
And now?
Seems like a good opportunity.
McCall nodded without hesitation.
He also loves food.
Of course he had heard of the name of 'Food and Wine Pavilion'.
John looked at his three friends, and after pondering for a moment, asked: "Can I bring pets?"
"certainly!"
Pulsator answered.
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"Let's go!"
"I'll drive!"
McCall greeted everyone.
The group of people were divided into two cars. Just when the car door was about to close, Delbon, who had been waiting for an opportunity, immediately rushed to the car where Kemi, Terry, and John were riding, driven by Brian.
"What are you doing?"
Terry glared at Delbon.
Since the amulet incident, the relationship between the two parties has become extremely bad.
After the signature book incident, although they occasionally agreed with each other, most of the time, the two were tit for tat.
According to past habits, Terry was already waiting for Delbon's counterattack.
And her?
Naturally, I have already prepared my words.
But what Terry didn't expect was that Delbon didn't even look at Terry.
He looked at John.
"Mr. John, are you missing a temporary pet?"
Delbon asked, licking his face.
John:???
Daisy:!!!
"Shameless!"
Terri scolded.
Delbon ignored it completely and looked at John with a pleading look on his face.
He wanted to go to the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' so much.
As for becoming a pet?
It's just temporary, so what's the problem?
Delbon thought very firmly.
Then, he suddenly felt his sleeves tighten.
Lowering his head, he saw Daisy biting his sleeve and whimpering from her mouth.
Delbon subconsciously pulled out his hand.
But, he immediately thought of something.
He immediately showed a smile to Daisy.
"Daisy, don't you think I'm quite suitable to walk with you beside Mr. John?"
Delbon said softly.
"You are truly the most shameless 'mysterious' person I have ever seen."
Terry yelled angrily.
However, he signaled Daisy to let go of Delbon.
"Don't bite him, you may get sick."
Terry comforted Daisy.
But Delbon didn't fight back at all, he just smiled.
Under such a stalemate, the car drove along.
When they arrived at the 'Food and Wine Pavilion', Delbon opened the car door diligently. John frowned slightly and led Daisy out.
Delbon followed closely behind, bending down, rubbing his hands, looking at Daisy from time to time, and showing a big smile.
"shameless!"
Terri was really angry, so she raised her foot and kicked Delbon in the butt.
Delbon sensed it.
However, there was no intention of avoiding it at all.
Bang!
With a muffled sound.
Delbon's stature was exaggerated, and he rushed into the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' with staggering steps.
Everyone looked at this scene, and the corners of their mouths curled up.
Including Jason.
But the next moment——
boom!
There was an explosion and flames shot into the sky.
The ‘Food and Wine Pavilion’ fell into a sea of fire.
