Chapter 539: Chapter 246 Minor Disagreement_2

Of course, most of the major combined combat zones are still pretty good, adhering to the bottom line of protecting humanity and guarding civilization. The three old battle zones, D1/D2/D3, are the hardest hit areas controlled by the Spiritual Ability City.

Shaking his head, Wang Jixuan continued with his own work.

Switching his mind to the War Puppet, he thought of something and asked the returning Mu Dan:

"No. 5’s exclusive Spirit Slave, that girl with a very small voice, seems to be a high official’s descendant from D2, right."

"Yes, sir."

"Keep a close eye on her, don’t let her have any chance to contact D2."

"Yes."

The War Puppet continued its busy work, making new drone array bases. By using the War Puppet’s magic, the power of the drone array could also be enhanced.

His main body still needed to make some preparations to take the elixir that could improve his aptitude.

He planned to maximize the window period of the Perfect Reversal Realm!

...

Wang Jixuan thought that after he rejected this matter, it could already be over.

Unexpectedly, just a few days after being busy, as he was about to take his elixir, Dongfang Zhenghong and Zhou Zhengde came to see him together.

The two came for two things.

Knowing Wang Jixuan’s attitude, Dongfang Zhenghong directly stated his purpose:

"Over at the D2 combined combat zone, eleven senior military officials, along with their commander, collectively asked our commander to plead, hoping the commander would consider the years of fighting together and have Xing Dian hand over the formula."

"They made many promises, such as appropriately adhering to D5’s will, and so on."

"This matter is definitely unjust."

"But if we could use Xing Dian’s formula for something, such as producing this drug to extend their lives, and subsequently fostering a new batch of officers in a warming-water-boiling-the-frog-like manner... it’s actually not impossible."

Wang Jixuan looked at Dongfang Zhenghong somewhat helplessly: "So you mean, you guys also endorse such a method?"

"Definitely not, this is a matter of principle."

Dongfang Zhenghong smiled bitterly:

"But we can’t just watch D2 fall into chaos.

"These people are already on the brink of madness, and they still have a certain number of nuclear bombs at their disposal. The commander’s intention is to control the risk and gradually replace them."

"Of course, this whole matter depends on Mr. Wang’s decision."

Wang Jixuan lowered his head in thought for a long time.

It actually had nothing to do with him, but deep down, he truly didn’t want to do such things, especially after seeing the ugly state of Xing Dian and those old folks.

"Doesn’t the Thirteenth Institute have the formula?"

"This matter was orchestrated by Xing Dian, who bribed a researcher. That researcher’s ashes are now nowhere to be found."

Dongfang Zhenghong pointed at the War Puppet standing beside him:

"Now they all know that Xing Dian has been captured by us."

"Zheng De, what’s your opinion?"

The sudden mention of his name clearly startled Zhou Zhengde.

He chuckled: "I didn’t come here for this."

"Give your opinion."

"I don’t approve of giving them the formula, nor do I approve of us controlling the D2 combined combat zone through drugs."

Zhou Zhengde shrugged:

"The reason is simple, this isn’t a true military alliance, but a kind of political manipulation.

"Previously, when we raided their Snow Mountain base, the upper echelon of D2’s military had a very ambiguous attitude, oscillating between both sides. If we controlled them, who’s to say they wouldn’t replay that scenario."

"Even setting aside our beliefs and principles, let’s assume for a moment they die or go mad due to lack of drugs. Would D2 really collapse because of it?

"Surely, there are still many officers who aren’t under control?

"Those controlled by Xing Dian naturally form the Xing Dian Faction, which will inevitably be exclusionary—either pulling people into their fold or pushing people out."

Dongfang Zhenghong reminded him: "There are still large groups of Blade Beasts around D2, and they’re already facing five to six King-level Blade Beasts."

Zhou Zhengde retorted: "Would those driving Horror Mechas suddenly drop dead over this matter?"

Dongfang Zhenghong shook his head: "This is uncertain, there might be a part who would."

Zhou Zhengde sighed: "I don’t know what kind of power they wield to make you and the commander want to do them a favor..."

"It’s not to do them a favor," Dongfang Zhenghong smiled bitterly, "but the commander’s few battle comrades, some of D2’s Second Generation Half-human Mechas. You know, sometimes the commander does consider camaraderie. After all, they fought side by side."

Wang Jixuan asked: "How long until they must take the drug?"

"Two days?"

"Hmm, enough time for them to prepare their affairs."

Wang Jixuan pursed his lips:

"Don’t come to me about this again. Zheng De is right. D2 won’t collapse just because it loses a batch of those in power. Under the enormous pressure from the Blade Beasts, their power structures will quickly regroup."

"Well... this task is indeed difficult," Dongfang Zhenghong shook his head, "directly affecting my image in Mr. Wang’s mind."

"Definitely not."

Wang Jixuan took two Solid Foundation Cultivation and Qi-adjusting pills and tossed them directly into Dongfang Zhenghong’s hand.

"The red one is for you. The white one is for Minister Zhou Meiyin. After taking them, rest well. They will rejuvenate you by over a decade."

"Thanks," Dongfang Zhenghong smiled as he held the precious elixir in his hand.

Zhou Zhengde pondered for a moment: "Shouldn’t I be the one to take the elixir meant for my mother?"

"Stay out of this matter."

Wang Jixuan hooked his arm around Zhou Zhengde’s neck and led him to a corner.

"How’s the investigation?"

"As you said, I sent people to investigate the batch of teenagers trafficked back from outside to the D2 combined combat zone... most of them were silenced."

Zhou Zhengde whispered:

"The D2 military controls that area.

"Someone wants to eliminate Xing Dian’s influence on D2, or someone wants to erase evidence of their collusion, which is clear.

"However, after hearing that the top echelons of D2 were controlled by drugs, the previously perplexing intelligence now makes sense... They mobilized a large number of drilling machines, trying to dig through to the secret base in the Snow Mountain base, but due to radiation and too many collapsed areas, there has been no progress."

"Hmm?" Wang Jixuan asked with a frown, "Are they looking for drugs?"

"Probably, otherwise, they wouldn’t be in such a hurry," Zhou Zhengde clicked his tongue, "Blade Beast groups near the D2 combined combat zone have also started showing signs of activity."

Wang Jixuan crossed his arms and thought carefully.

Zhou Zhengde reminded: "I mentioned most of them were silenced, but our intelligence officers did acquire some intel."

"About that girl, Ye Zi?"

"Yes," Zhou Zhengde said, "The one who escaped from our D5. Based on the intel we gathered, she has already gathered a large group of Wilderness Wanderers, wandering near the borders of the Blade Beasts’ territory for an unknown purpose. Ye Zi also selected dozens of teenagers and sent them to the D3/D4 combined combat zones."

Wang Jixuan: ...

"Does this really look like something a teenage girl could pull off?"

"I’m afraid not," Zhou Zhengde sighed, "There are too many mysteries about her, and one thing is sure, after she escaped from D5, she immediately connected with external resources... I suspect it has to do with memory overlay technology researched in cloning experiments."

Wang Jixuan shook his head: "Keep investigating, the main thing is to find her location. The rest, leave to me."

"For the fortresses infiltrated by Ye Zi, should we give a warning?"

"Give a warning, try to do it discreetly," several names crossed Wang Jixuan’s mind.

The Black Fire Gang boss, Kong Lianmei;

Number 6 Spirit Cultivator in the Reincarnation State;

Wang Jixuan was more inclined to believe that malicious intentions don’t arise without reason, but reality proves that malice is born within the human heart.

"Here, take this," Wang Jixuan stuffed a small blue pill into Zhou Zhengde’s hand.

Zhou Zhengde asked curiously: "What’s it for?"

Wang Jixuan chuckled: "It will enhance your strength and vitality, one pill can make you virile for ten years..."

Zhou Zhengde swallowed it in one gulp.

"There’s one side effect," Wang Jixuan frowned, "Why did you take it so quickly? This thing will make you extremely hot, and you need to release this heat promptly."

Zhou Zhengde: ...

"Damn! Why didn’t you say that earlier!"

He turned around and ran, his face visibly turning red.

Soon after, Wang Jixuan turned to see Lao Zheng playing video games with Wan Xiaoqi.

It was incredibly strange that Lao Zheng showed no reaction after taking two such elixirs. It really depended on constitution, which was hard to explain.

Mr. Wang shook his head and continued with his work.

Half an hour later.

A transport plane departed from the D2 combined combat zone and slowly flew towards D5.

Inside the cabin, an old Half-human Mecha, two and a half meters tall, sat quietly, his silver-white bald head devoid of a wig, with only a pair of original eyes remaining.

An elderly man beside him sighed: "Deputy Commander, you really don’t need to go yourself..."

The old Half-human Mecha remained silent.
