"Then we will break through from here." Xu Zhenyue looked at everyone and then adjusted the holographic display: "To ensure efficiency, the mission will proceed at multiple points."
He then said to Chu Yan: "Chu Yan, your target is Zhou Mingyuan."
"Okay."
Qino raised his hand: "Wen Hui is an important figure, I’ll handle her. The Nightwalker side has three squads left, so let’s focus on the key officials in the Night Patrol Team’s Guard Camp and the Population Control Bureau, who are all Zhou Mingyuan’s cronies."
"There’s one more, Wen Dong, who has previously participated in so of the Deep Red World’s operations in White City. We should be able to get sothing from him." A squad leader said.
"But Wen Dong hasn’t been seen in the Inner City lately."
"I know where he is." At this mont, in Lin Xian’s group, Jiang Yun, who hadn’t spoken, suddenly spoke up: "Galagher Black Market, a chanical Superpower User nad Qin Feng is using the Silver Star to recruit mbers, causing a big stir. You all must have noticed this; the Silver Star is an asset of our alliance, which was previously controlled by Wen Dong at the Star City Orbital Station. Such an important asset appearing in the survivor camp must have a close relationship with the Federation."
"We indeed noticed it." At this mont, Chu Yan looked at Lin Xian: "There is no information on this Qin Feng in the Phoenix Society, and we have other reconnaissance personnel monitoring this person currently."
"Because of the chanical Superpower?" Lin Xian asked.
"Yes, the Phoenix Society is very curious about it."
"I am curious too." Lin Xian said.
"Then leave this to ." The captain of the 83 Iron Guard Brigade’s Special Operations Team, Zhou Jin, said at this ti: "I’ll lead the team to take down this Qin Feng and see if we can bring out Wen Dong."
"Alright." Xu Zhenyue imdiately arranged: "Proceed with this action, prepare communication channels, and comnce imdiately."
Lin Xian was puzzled: "General Xu, what about ?"
Xu Zhenyue at this ti said to him: "Captain Lin, as soon as there is progress here, we need you to assist with the action. Leave the investigation work to our action team."
"That’s not right." Lin Xian suddenly refuted, drawing the attention of Zhou Jin, Qino, and others.
Lin Xian raised his hand, pointing to the team mbers behind him: "Since General Xu ntioned that this concerns urgency and the survival of mankind, leaving us here to wait for news is a bit too much of a courtesy. Since we chose to co here, we naturally know the dangers involved, and it hasn’t even reached the most dangerous point yet. I can help with the investigation."
He said, looking at Zhou Jin: "Captain Zhou, let us join you on the Wen Dong aspect. chanical Superpower User, Silver Star, Wen Dong, all three matters relate to us." Lin Xian smiled: "Even we are planning on it ourselves."
Xu Zhenyue nodded, sweeping his gaze across Lin Xian and Chu Yan, and then said: "Alright, but try to hide your identities. If the Federation notices, it could complicate future plans."
"That’s simple enough." Lin Xian looked back at his squad mbers.
"From now on, we are all Captain Zhou’s mbers, specifically attending this recruitnt event to see if there is a plan to join under Captain Qin."
The eting ended, and Lin Xian’s squad prepared to head to the Galagher Black Market with Zhou Jin. Chu Yan found Lin Xian before the action and spoke with him privately.
"I understand your thoughts, but please trust that General Xu didn’t assign you to action just out of consideration for your safety."
"What else?"
Chu Yan, with a calm look, Lin Xian noticed that despite the woman’s chanical body, she carried a faint scent of gardenia, with a slightly tired expression on her face.
"The most important goal of the Crescent Moon Operation is to obtain information, and I am the primary direction of action."
Lin Xian was slightly stunned, looking at her, seemingly understanding sothing.
"I understand now."
Chu Yan looked at Lin Xian; although it was their first eting, they seed like old friends who had faced many life-and-death situations together. She said: "The city may soon get out of control. At that ti, no one will care about your identity issue, but before that, I must complete this task. There isn’t much ti; you take care."
Lin Xian nodded: "Alright, you take care too."
The Galagher Black Market is also located north of the city, ho to the most crowded survivor camp community, dense with post-apocalyptic architecture clusters like a jungle.
When Lin Xian and Zhou Jin’s convoy arrived, they saw that several streets were jam-packed with vehicles.
Most of these were heading north out of the city, towards Qingbo City, where the Phoenix Society’s station is, and most of the people exiting from this direction were large convoys.
Lin Xian saw many survivors lined up begging to join the large convoys, gathered like beehives at the street’s edge, in addition to countless others flowing toward the Galagher Black Market. Seizing the montum of the Infinite Train recruitnt rally, various other dium and small-sized convoys were recruiting, attracting many people eager to latch onto a big opportunity and flee.
"Large convoys are leaving the city, small convoys and scattered survivors are squeezing into the city, which isn’t a good sign."
On the road, Jiang Yun looked at the dense crowd outside and said.
"Are you worried that once all the large convoys have left, the small convoys will have no choice but to stay in the city waiting for the three Stars Abyss to close in and doom everyone?" Lin Xian asked.
Jiang Yun sighed deeply: "There’s nothing else; it’s tragic for the little people. They either latch onto a big convoy fleeing to the Dawn Center or gamble on the strength of the No. 1 Wall here. What other options do they have? Even with the Phoenix Society assisting with the transfer, it’s only one Iron Guard Brigade; sheltering a million people is already the limit."
