Chapter 99: Each Has His Own Agenda

The hovercraft landed at the agreed location.
As soon as Chen She got off the car, he heard someone calling out, "Boss Chen!"
Chen She turned around and saw that it was Wu Yisu.
Chen She was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"
Wu Yisu said as a matter of course: "Why can't I come? I am also a second-level councilor of Liming City, and I have to contribute to Liming City."
Chen She couldn't help but frown, "This operation is very dangerous. The people we are investigating are the Knights of Time and Space, who are all a bunch of crazy people who don't care about their lives."
Wu Yisu smiled, leaned forward and lowered his voice: "I've heard from Boss Chen that this investigation into the Spacetime Knights is just a routine matter and is not actually very dangerous."
"What's more, several major consortium masters have arrived. There is such a huge gap in strength. As long as we follow the team honestly, what danger can we face?"
"What's more, although I don't have a corporate army, I bought platinum security services from the Icefield Defense Corporation. Look, there are three level 4 energy fluctuation masters following me, protecting me closely!"
Wu Yisu pointed proudly at the three people following behind him.
They were all wearing the standard equipment of the Icefield Defense Group and had undergone prosthetic modifications. Although they looked like ordinary genetic or mechanical transcendents, it should not be false to say that they had level 4 energy fluctuations.
Wu Yisu added: "Boss Chen, you don't have to worry too much. You see, those people actually have the same idea as me."
Chen She followed Wu Yisu's perspective and found that there were indeed quite a few ordinary parliamentarians who came to participate in this investigation.
Some of them brought personal bodyguards with them, some selected relatively capable subordinates from their own corporate armies, and some, like Wu Yisu, simply purchased personal security services directly from large conglomerates such as the Icefield Defense Group.
Chen She was speechless.
These people took it seriously. Did they really think that there was no danger in investigating the Time and Space Knights?
He was really sold out, but he still didn't forget to count money for others.
Chen She knew very well that according to the original combat power of the Space-Time Knights, this operation would definitely be extremely tragic. Assuming that Grantham could bring those knights back to the Space-Time Knights' branch, then after a period of recuperation and adjustment, they would definitely become a very threatening extreme force.
The security forces of these ordinary parliamentarians represented by Wu Yisu are not enough for the Knights of Time and Space to deal with.
But these people, led by Snow Ley, deliberately told these congressmen that the strength of the Space Knights was very weak, and asked them to volunteer to contribute money and manpower to participate in this investigation. Whether they used them as cannon fodder or as smoke bombs, there must be some special purpose.
But at this point, it's no use saying all this.
Some legislators realized the danger of this matter and did not participate at all; those who really came to participate were like Wu Yisu, who made the decision to wade into this muddy water after weighing the risks and benefits.
Chen She had his own things to do, so naturally he couldn't take care of other people.
There were more and more hovercrafts at the gathering place. Chen She noticed that people from big conglomerates such as the Icefield Defense Group, Fujido Group, and Mellen Bank Group all participated in this investigation.
These big financial groups did not send all their corporate troops. Fujido Group brought the most people, about 20 people, while Melun Bank Group and Icefield Defense Group only had a team of more than 10 people, which was similar to the number of members of Lishan Technology. As for Microwood Technology Group, no one came at all.
It seems that Weimu Technology Group is not interested in this matter at all.
After seeing that these big financial groups only brought a dozen people, Wu Yisu felt a little guilty. He whispered, "Boss Chen, why did these big financial groups only bring so few people? I thought they would bring at least a hundred soldiers."
Chen She asked, "Why, are you scared? If you are scared, it's not too late to withdraw now. Once you really go underground, it won't be so easy to withdraw."
Wu Yisu thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth, "Never mind, these big financial groups are not afraid, so why should I be afraid? Anyway, if something really happens, they will be the ones to take the lead."
As more and more people arrived, a senior police officer in a DCPD uniform began to count the number and strength of the ordinary councillors in the area.
Most of the people here, like Wu Yisu, brought 3 to 4 bodyguards, and their strength was basically around level 4 energy fluctuations.
Of course, many congressmen had no intention of coming at all. They were afraid of danger, so they only sent their own security captains or corporate army commanders to bring people here.
But this does not mean that people like Wu Yisu are stupid, because there is still a big difference between being present in person and not being present.
If the congressman does not attend in person, the people he sends will definitely be handed over to others for command, which is tantamount to making wedding clothes for others. If the congressman attends in person, as long as the entire investigation can proceed safely and smoothly, then this congressman will leave the impression of courage, responsibility and activeness to the higher-level bigwigs.
In short, if you want safety, you won't get much good results, but if you want to gain substantial gains such as reputation, prestige, and connections, you must take certain risks.
This senior police officer is one of the persons in charge of this event. He came to count the number of people brought by each MP. In fact, he was not really counting the number of people, but taking this opportunity to understand the actual situation of each MP.
After all, the world's technology is very advanced, and all kinds of relevant data can be counted in an instant.
The reason why this senior police officer wanted to check again was mainly to get in close contact with these congressmen, understand their true status, and communicate with them briefly to ensure that subsequent operations can proceed smoothly.
Wu Yisu whispered to Chen She, "This is Sergeant Violet, the deputy leader of the DCPD Special Operations Group. He is very experienced, and he is also a powerful person with level 5 peak energy fluctuations."
"With him leading the team, I think this operation is a sure win."
Chen She sighed silently in his heart.
When a strong man with level 5 peak energy fluctuation leads the team, the operation can be guaranteed. It can only be said that Wu Yisu has not seen much of the world and does not know how deep the water in Liming City is. He completely underestimated the danger of this operation.
Soon, Sheriff Violet came to Wu Yisu.
Wu Yisu hurriedly took the initiative to report: "Wu Yisu, brought three people, all of whom have level 4 energy fluctuations."
"Sheriff, I'll have to trouble you to take care of this operation."
Sheriff Violet nodded slightly. "Mr. Congressman, please rest assured. Our DCPD Special Operations Group has selected the most elite police officers to participate in this operation. We will definitely be able to catch those rats hiding in the gutter in one fell swoop. We must not only ensure the safety of the congressmen, but also avenge those congressmen who unfortunately died in the last attack."
He looked at Chen She again, and after a slight hesitation, he said, "Mr. Congressman, this operation is taking place underground, and the area is very small, so the personnel we carry are more skilled than numerous."
"I see that most of your people are at level three energy fluctuations. I don't think it's necessary to bring so many people. You only need to bring four or five stronger ones."
"The main force of this operation is our DCPD special operations team and the elite corporate armies of major consortiums. You just need to follow behind and cooperate. You won't encounter any major dangers. You can rest assured about this."
Chen She waved his hand, "I don't think so. There is strength in numbers."
"And having more people can give you a greater sense of security."
Sheriff Violet felt a little helpless, but he did not try to persuade them any further. After all, it was the freedom of each congressman to decide how many people to bring with him.
He went on to count the other MPs.
After Sheriff Violet lost his sight, Chen She looked at him twice more.
He could see that Sheriff Violet was indeed not strong enough. Although the level 5 peak energy fluctuation did not sound very powerful, Sheriff Violet was experienced in combat and his true strength was roughly equivalent to that of a strong man with level 6 energy fluctuation.
This time, Sheriff Violet must have received some instructions from the top and had a certain grasp of the inside story of this operation. That's why he advised Chen She not to bring so many people.
Soon, the investigation team against the Space-Time Knights was assembled.
Chen She took a quick glance and found that this team had at least two or three hundred people. And they were basically very elite forces, including some masters of level 5 and level 6 energy fluctuations.
As for whether there are stronger ones, Chen She can't tell for the time being.
This is normal. After all, the operations this time are all carried out underground, and the underground space is relatively narrow. Even if a corporate army of tens of thousands of people is really brought in, they will not be able to carry out their operations.
Moreover, this operation was not just to investigate the Knights of Time and Space. Snow Ley might have other purposes. The more people there were, the harder it would be to control them, and the higher the possibility of accidents.
In short, after making some high-sounding statements, the investigation team officially set off.
The investigation team was divided into two different teams, each with more than 100 people.
The first team is composed of the DCPD's special operations team and experts drawn from the corporate armies of major conglomerates. This team is at the forefront and is most likely to encounter risks first.
This team was led by Snow Ley himself, but Chen She could see that Snow Ley should be accompanied by several very strong masters.
In addition, Sheriff Violet is also in this team. He is mainly responsible for commanding the special operations team and coordinating Snow Ley's orders.
The second team was a motley crowd of people brought by various councillors. However, what surprised Chen She was that the people from the Fujitang Group were also assigned to this group and were not in the first team.
Chen She could vaguely sense that Snow Ley seemed to have a certain degree of rejection and vigilance towards the Fujido Group and did not want to allow the Fujido Group to infiltrate the first team.
Of course, the pretext is to let people from the Fujido Group lead the members of these other small consortiums and let them take charge of the command of the team.
In theory, this reason is very legitimate.
After all, the people led by these congressmen are of different qualities and have not received unified training, so there must be a unified command. However, these small consortiums are not obedient to each other and may not be able to command them.
After all, the Fujido Group is a large conglomerate with many experts under its command, and the team leader is an old commander with extensive combat experience in the corporate army. It is reasonable to let him lead these people to carry out peripheral exploration and cleanup work.
But for the Fujido Group, they are obviously very reluctant to accept this arrangement.
The two teams passed through the underground passage one after the other and entered the huge underground city of Dawn City.
Obviously, even for Snow Ley and Sheriff Violet, the direct commanders of this operation, they did not know where the real hiding place of the Time and Space Knights was, they only knew that it was somewhere underground.
The Knights of Spacetime have always been cautious, and all their communication and movement underground are completed through special spacetime marks. These marks are like miniature spacetime rifts, a kind of portal with special rules.
If you do not master the corresponding synesthesia ability, you will not be able to move through these portals at all, and you will not even be able to realize the specific meaning of these portals.
The straight-line distance between two space-time rifts may not be very far. Sometimes it may be only a dozen meters, but in the intricate underground, this short distance of a dozen meters may take a lot of trouble to find.
If Chen She had not used Epsilon's ability to directly take over Grantham's body and found the usage of these special marks and the location of the Knights of Time and Space from Grantham's memory, Chen She would have been able to grope around in the underground.
The first team quickly went underground.
Chen She noticed that some of them seemed to have the ability of synesthesia and could decipher the marks left by the Knights of Time and Space.
Although these people with synesthesia can move through these symbols, the large troops behind them do not have this ability, so they can only use these symbols to locate a specific location underground, and then use other means to open a way for the large troops to arrive.
Although no large equipment is needed in underground combat, these strong men are still armed to the teeth. Especially the strong men of the mechanical route, who carry guns, ammunition, various micro missiles and other equipment, which are simply mobile arsenals.
They continued to cut through the thick walls underground and moved towards the core area of ​​the Knights of Time and Space.
The second team, including Chen She, followed far behind.
This is just the outer area. When we reach the core area, the underground space will be further expanded. By then, there will be some open areas like squares. Don't be fooled by the crowds now. When we really reach such open areas, we have to worry about not getting separated.
The faces of the corporate soldiers of the Fujido Group were filled with impatience, especially the commander in chief .
It is obvious that they participated in this event deep underground and have their own plans.
Wu Yisu whispered in Chen She's ear, "Boss Chen, that seems to be Fujido Yusuke, a very powerful commander in the Fujido Group's corporate army. I didn't even know he had come to Liming City."
"I was a little worried at first because the strong ones are in the first team and we might be in danger. But now it seems we don't have to worry. Our team is not weak either."
Chen She couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
The people in Fujido Group are strong, so there is no need to worry. Does your logic not make sense?
This time, the Fujido Group sent Fujido Yusuke and some powerful corporate soldiers not just for show, they must have their own purposes.
Chen She guessed that it was probably to find the whereabouts of the Naraku plan.
The news that the Fujido Group's Naraku Plan was about to succeed must have been reported to the headquarters, but the corporate army sent by the headquarters was a step too late. When they arrived, there was nothing left of the Fujido Group's field base.
They searched the base of the Fujido Group many times but found no useful clues, so they could only turn their attention to the Knights of Time and Space.
It is impossible for the Fujido Group not to participate in the operation against the Space-Time Knights.
However, these big financial groups have their own ulterior motives. Currently, they are still on the periphery and have not encountered any members of the Space-Time Knights, so of course they can still maintain superficial peace.
However, once they really go deep underground, once violent space-time activities occur, all communications may be completely cut off. When they cannot contact the outside world, it is hard to say what choices these big financial groups will make.
At the same time, Yusuke Fujido was also having a secret conversation with his men through the encrypted channel in the combat uniform helmet.
"We were placed in the second team because someone didn't want us to come into contact with the Knights of Time and Space too early."
"And Snow Ley has acquiesced to this, which is very disadvantageous to us."
"So after entering the core area, we will immediately act independently. We must first find the members of the Space-Time Knights and find out the truth about Naraku's plan!"
As a top conglomerate, Fujido Group certainly possesses a lot of information that Chen She does not know.
Snow Ley is a big shot on Silver Star, and no one dares to offend him. No matter whether it is the Icefield Defense Group, Fujido Group or Black Umbrella Group, they can only obey orders and cooperate fully.
Therefore, whether it is the final destruction of the Time and Space Knights or obtaining the results of the Naraku Project, it will be handed over to Snow Ley on the surface.
But for the Fujido Group, the best result they could think of was to secretly obtain the results of the Naraku Project without anyone noticing.
A slightly worse outcome would be that they obtained the results of the Naraku Project, but were discovered and had to hand it over to Snow Ley, which at least would have allowed them to gain some benefits in return.
The worst outcome is like what is happening now, where Snow Ley leads large conglomerates such as the Icefield Defense Group, the Black Umbrella Group, and the Mellon Bank Group to attack the Time and Space Knights head-on and get the results of the Naraku Plan first.
For the Fujido Group, this was a wasted trip, and the Naraku Project, which had invested so many resources and paid such a high price to complete, did not gain any benefits for the Fujido Group.
That is absolutely unacceptable.
Therefore, it is impossible for these people from the Fujido Group to lead these rabble to play soy sauce on the periphery. As long as they see the opportunity, they will rush directly to the core area and get there before the first team.
