Committee of Order stronghold, conference room …
The atmosphere in the conference room was somewhat solemn. Everyone was here, including Xia Pingan.
Minister Yan stood on a huge electronic display screen in front of the conference room. He was holding a remote control in his hand and interpreting some old photos on the electronic display screen with everyone. The images in the photos were tragic. An urbanized city had turned into a ghost town, and corpses were everywhere on the streets. It was like a dead zone …
There were also photos on the electronic display screen. They were underground, and there was a huge altar built of bones. Skeletons were piled up around the altar, and blood was sprinkled around the altar.
"… This is a photo of Manbinei, the capital of the East African Republic of Gondaru, in 1974. The Manbinei incident directly killed half of the population of the Gondaru Republic. In just a few days, more than 2.1 million people died in the country. In the end, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution, and various countries sent peacekeeping troops and summoners to finally calm down the Manbinei incident. But then, the Gondaru Republic also disintegrated and became today's Sarabila and Zina …
"The following photo is the altar built by the Demon Eye in the national underground cemetery of the Gondaru Republic. According to the habits of the Sarabila, they would collect the bones of their ancestors of death from the previous generations to worship them, so more than one million bones were gathered in the underground cemetery of their capital. At that time, a red-clothed priest of the Demon Eye led the Manbinei incident and used the bones in the underground cemetery to cast evil spells and use blood sacrifices to summon the Bone Monarch. Nuclear materials can create and transform demon spirits, and they are special casting materials in the evil spells used by the Demon Eye to summon the Bone Monarch …
"According to the information we obtained and the data analysis done by the intelligence department of the Committee of Order, the ultimate purpose of the batch of nuclear materials smuggled into Paris by the Demon Eye is more than 80% likely to be to create an altar to summon the Bone Monarch in the catacombs of Paris. Just half an hour ago, the intelligence department of the Fire Country officially informed the French government of this situation. The French government will take over the subsequent crisis, and the members of the Committee of Order and the Dragon Group will not enter the catacombs of Paris …"
Minister Yan's voice was unusually calm, as though he was talking about something unimportant.
"What if the intelligence department's analysis is wrong?" Fang Lingyin asked with a slight frown.
Minister Yan pressed the remote control in his hand towards the electronic monitor in the room once again. In an instant, another satellite surveillance image appeared on the electronic monitor in the room. The image was in a weird dark-red color. In the dark-red image, everything in Paris was glowing. It looked a bit hazy as if it was shot under a special effect lens.
"Huaxia's Weasel 5 and Weasel 6 radiation detection satellites have entered the predetermined orbit and locked onto Paris. If the nuclear materials that entered the Paris catacombs are transported out of the catacombs, our radiation detection satellites will be able to warn us immediately. At that time, we will intercept …"
"What if those nuclear materials don't come out?" Tu Polu asked with a frown.
Tu Polu's question made the meeting room fall into an abnormal silence. Actually, everyone had already guessed the answer.
This choice was very difficult, and it was not completely flawless morally, but from the standpoint of the country, this was the only way.
Minister Yan glanced at Tu Polu and said calmly, "In the past few days, I have communicated with the various factions in Paris, and the negotiations for the evacuation passage at the airport have been settled. Our plane will arrive in Paris tomorrow, and we will arrange for the evacuation of the expatriates. If they insist on staying, they will be responsible for their own lives. This is the problem of the French. What happens next may also affect the safety of the European continent, but this has nothing to do with us. The Order Committee and the Dragon Group have no obligation to bleed for others here. We have already made great contributions to the safety of this city and Europe by cleaning up the demon rats and zombies in the underground tunnels here and pacifying the zombies in the District 14 cemetery. If the Demon Eyes plan succeeds, the French government and the European Parliament will be responsible for everything here. We have already done our best by informing them of the situation. Do you understand?"
Tu Polu's mouth moved, but in the end, he nodded firmly, and his expression became firm again. "Understood. I will obey the orders of my superiors!"
"Okay!" Minister Yan also nodded. "Our current mission is to change to surveillance. As long as the nuclear materials don't appear outside the underground tomb, it has nothing to do with us. If the situation is irreversible, we will evacuate. I have already arranged three evacuation plans for everyone. When the time comes, we will choose according to the situation. We will definitely ensure that everyone can safely evacuate in the most dangerous situation. Before the new mission is issued, no one is allowed to leave District 11 for the next few days, and no one is allowed to go out without permission.
Everyone looked at each other, stood up from their seats, and walked out of the door.
Xia Pingan also had nothing to say, and also walked out behind the crowd.
"Mr. Luo An, please wait!" Minister Yan called out to Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan stopped and turned around. "Is there anything else, Minister Yan?"
A smile suddenly appeared on Minister Yan's serious face, but it disappeared in an instant. "It's all thanks to the information provided by Mr. Luo An that we were able to discover the key clues to the nuclear materials this time. Thank you very much. There are no missions for the next few days, so Mr. Luo An can rest. When the time is up, we will continue to pay Mr. Luo An the reward of the second Realm Pearl!"
"Okay, thanks!"
"It's not safe in Paris now. If Mr. Luo An doesn't mind, you can move here. I've already asked someone to prepare a room for Mr. Luo An!"
"No need. My residence in Paris is very safe. It's very convenient for me to come here. If there's any situation, we can contact each other at any time!"
After chatting with Minister Yan for a while, Xia Pingan left the conference room. After bidding farewell to Tu Polu and the others outside, he left the stronghold of the Committee of Order.
He hadn't integrated the several Realm Pearls that he had just obtained.
Moreover, according to Minister Yan's words, the Committee of Order and Dragon Group wouldn't intervene in the following crisis. However, if he wanted to intervene, it would be considered a private action. The Committee of Order couldn't control him.
There was still a lot of room for manipulation. As long as he manipulated it well, it wouldn't be a problem for him to get a few more Realm Pearls.
When he walked out of the stronghold of the Committee of Order, it was already dark outside. Xia Pingan touched his chin as he muttered to himself, "Now, it's time to see how many Realm Pearls those gangs and the French government in Paris can provide in order to save Paris."
"It seems that I have to meet Mr. Curie again."
