Volume 3: Rise of the God of War Chapter 423 Secret Base
This mountain, called Shoushan, is the origin of the name of Shoushan City.
And in the heart of this mountain, a large-scale secret military base is being built.
The confidentiality level of this base is SS. Except for the internal personnel in the base, few people in the entire alliance know that there is a secret base here!
The night enveloped the earth, and the mountains were lurking in the darkness like tigers.
In the secret room of the base, two middle-aged men were having a secret meeting.
"Haha, brother, that little girl has a really stubborn temper. I didn't expect that even Master Ling himself couldn't handle her." A middle-aged man in a green military uniform with the rank of major picked up the teacup on the coffee table between the two of them, took a sip, and said with a smile.
This major looked to be in his forties, handsome and charming, with a shiny black bun and a neatly trimmed black beard on his upper lip. He was actually the middle-aged major who had watched Li Jiu's competition in the East Suburbs competition area!
The person sitting opposite him was also a middle-aged man, also of the yellow race, but a little older, looking to be in his fifties.
This man was wearing a simple camouflage military uniform, his rank could not be seen, he had gray hair like steel needles, a thick beard, angular facial features, sword-like eyebrows and fierce eyes. One could tell at a glance that he was a tough guy.
"Humph, this is all the kid's own fault. He can't even handle a small task." The tough middle-aged man snorted coldly and drank the teacup in one gulp.
"Brother, don't talk about Xiaojie. He is actually a very outstanding child. At such a young age, he can become an instructor of the Flying Tiger Special Operations Battalion. This is not something that ordinary people can do. Only a tiger father like you, brother, can raise such a tiger son." The middle-aged major shook his head and smiled.
"Well, if we talk about ability, that boy is indeed good, and has some of my style back then." The middle-aged tough guy nodded, "But when it comes to emotional issues, he is fussy, not like me at all."
"Haha, alright, brother, let's not talk about that anymore ." The middle-aged major waved his hand, "Since Xiaojie can't do anything, we have to find another way to rescue that kid."
"Yeah, that's true." The middle-aged tough guy nodded, then frowned and said, "But I still don't quite understand why you insist on asking me to take special care of that kid, and even cooperate with his Night Rose Mercenary Group. You know, with the power of our War Bar, let alone a one-star mercenary group, even a five-star mercenary group can be chosen, why do we have to cooperate with them? Do you really think that the kid alone can lead a one-star mercenary group to win the God of War Tournament?"
"Brother, you underestimate his role." The middle-aged major smiled mysteriously, "Winning the God of War Championship is indeed a task that kid needs to shoulder. However, it is impossible for the higher-ups to put all their hopes on him alone. In addition to Night Rose, we have also found some other candidate mercenary groups."
"In addition to this reason, the main reason why I asked you to take special care of him is because the people above are very interested in that kid's strength!"
"Strength? He's just a small captain mercenary. What strength can he have?" The middle-aged man frowned and asked puzzled.
"His current strength is indeed not strong, but a mercenary with only 100 health points can hide from Xingtian's exploration and possess the strength of a third-level warrior. You should know what this means, right?" The middle-aged major said meaningfully.
"Is there such a thing?!" The middle-aged tough guy was slightly surprised. "So, he may have a big secret. Could it be a new type of gene that has evolved..."
"It is still unclear what the secret is." The middle-aged major shook his head. "In addition, he is an awakened person who has control over souls!"
"Awakener? Soul control? This is a bit rare, but there's nothing special about it. After all, there are other soul-controlling awakeners in the alliance." The middle-aged tough guy was slightly stunned and asked puzzled.
"He's different." The middle-aged major smiled mysteriously and shook his head. "Have you ever seen a soul awakener who was promoted to the early general level in less than half a year?"
“What?! In less than half a year, you’ve been promoted to the early general level?! Even with the king-level promotion method, you can’t do it?!” the middle-aged tough guy exclaimed in shock.
"That's right!" The middle-aged major nodded with a smile, "Now, do you know why we attach so much importance to this clone warrior?"
"Well, according to what you said, that boy is indeed worthy of our careful training..." The middle-aged tough guy nodded and said thoughtfully: "How about this, brother, I'll ask you to go and bail that boy out in person. You also know that I can't put pressure on that girl as the owner of the War Bar. It will make it difficult for her to do so, and I can't explain to her father..."
"Okay, brother, since you have personally ordered me to do so, how dare I not do it?" said the middle-aged major with a smile.
"Well, there's no time to lose. You should hurry up and go to District 5. Tomorrow is their first game. If you're late, you might miss tomorrow's game." The middle-aged tough guy nodded.
"Okay, I'll leave right away." The middle-aged major said as he drank the tea, then left the secret base.
…
In the detention room of the Fifth District Police Station, Li Jiu slept on a hard bed for another night.
The next morning, before he had even eaten, he was again taken in for interrogation by the energetic Zhao Ying.
Speaking of which, the reason why Zhao Ying was so anxious to interrogate Li Jiu was that she considered that there was a high possibility that someone would come to bail Li Jiu out today, and the person who came today might not be as easy to deal with as Ouyang Jie.
Therefore, just in case, she had to hurry up and interrogate Li Jiu again before he was released on bail.
"Have you thought it through?" Zhao Ying asked impatiently, sitting alone opposite Li Jiu. "The first game of the day is about to start. It's not too late to talk about it now."
Li Jiu frowned and looked at the time on the smart computer. There was only one hour left before the competition officially started.
If we add the time it takes to get to the East Suburbs competition venue, there would probably only be a few minutes left, so I couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"It seems that I have to tell the truth..." Li Jiu said helplessly.
“Beep!”
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a prompt sound suddenly rang out from the quantum door of the interrogation room, and then several people hurriedly walked in.
"Xiao Zhao, let him go immediately!" A slightly plump middle-aged man in police uniform came in and immediately spoke to the policewoman Zhao Ying in an imperative tone.
