The entrance to the secret tunnel slowly rose.
Garon walked in with big steps. There were still some members passing by in the tunnel. When they saw his cold face, they moved away from him to avoid unnecessary trouble.
On top of the tunnel, there were transparent crystals that shone a faint blue light every once in a while. This was an underground facility built at the bottom of the water.
After walking for a short distance, Garen saw the fatty who contacted him the last time running towards him, his fat body shaking.
"Oh! My dear Team Leader Nine Heads! You're finally back!! "The fatty opened his arms in an exaggerated manner, wanting to hug him.
Garon ignored him and walked past him.
"What's the matter?"
"Uhh …" Fatty Baidel's face flashed with awkwardness. He retracted his arms. "It's Marquis Yawei, deputy director. Your direct superior wants to see you. It's about the completion of the Red Team's mission. "
He paused. "Team Leader Nine Heads, your mission this time was completed beautifully. With the special mission in the snowy peak, the Red Team might be promoted …"
"Promoted? What's the point of being promoted to me? "Garon asked casually as he walked.
"Of course! There's a lot of benefits! "The fatty followed Garon as he jogged, barely keeping up with his speed. "If the Red Team is promoted to a high-level team, the benefits and benefits will increase as well. The support from the headquarters will also increase. "
"What are the benefits?" Garon was the type of person who would not give in if he did not see the benefits.
"Uhh … About that … There are mainly two aspects of promotion. Wealth and power. "Fatty Baidel took out a white handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face. "Wealth is completely up to you. This is redeemed with mission points. It can be secret treasures, territory, or top quality resources. Potions, poisons, equipment, weapons, anything. Power can be promoted, control of power, support from other branches or even the headquarters. "
"That's quite a lot." Garon nodded. Only then did he completely suppress the excitement in his heart.
After the two of them took a few turns, the number of people in the tunnel had increased. Most of them were waiters and staff in gray, obviously serving the members here. They were pushing carts filled with food, drinks, clothes, and other supplies.
Some of the staff came out of the rooms with beeping sounds. They were in a hurry with scrolls of information in their hands. There were also some who carried large frames with uniforms and followed the attendants through the passageway. No one knew what they were going to do.
Some of them were arguing softly at the crossroads.
The headquarters was obviously much livelier than the last time Garon was here.
Fatty Baidel seemed to have noticed Garon's doubt as he led the way.
"Usually, many people are out on missions, so the dedicated service teams are naturally resting. Now that many of the teams have returned, the corresponding service teams are also busy. .................................
..............
Baidra continued, "Right now, our headquarters is mainly funded by Kovitan, but of course, we also have some businesses of our own. But not much, so we mainly serve the Kovitan Empire. Recently, the Trust Ceremony is about to begin, so naturally we are busy. Five of the nine teams have returned to maintain the secret security of the Imperial Capital. "
. Garon understood.
The two of them took another turn and walked into a sealed tunnel. At the end of the tunnel was a white door with silver patterns. There was a guard in white heavy armor at the door.
Baidel walked over and showed a white card to the guard.
The latter immediately bowed and moved aside to let the door open.
The door opened on its own without a sound.
Garon followed Baidel into the room.
Inside was a meeting room. It was completely white, and there were silver patterns all over the walls, as if they were engraved patterns. There were four white stone pegasus statues in the four corners. They were as tall as a person and looked very realistic.
In the middle was a circular black sofa, and there were two people sitting on it.
One of them had a full beard, wore black-rimmed glasses, and wore a neat black suit. He looked like an artist.
The other person had a white face and no beard. His short dark blonde hair was combed back, forming lines behind his head. He was a middle-aged man with a smile and a slightly gloomy aura.
The two of them looked at Garon and Baidel who were walking in.
"Baidel, you brought Team Leader Nine Heads? How rare, how rare. We're both from Kovitan, but this is the first time I've met Team Leader Nine Heads. I'm really ashamed. "The pale-faced man stood up and greeted Garen with a smile on his face.
"I am Senda Tungus. I believe His Majesty has already mentioned me in front of you?"
Garon suddenly remembered. Avic did say that in the Secret Service, only Count Senda had some influence in Kovitan. The rest were all foreigners.
He looked at the man carefully. This person's eyes were swollen and his face was pale. It was obvious that he was lacking in blood. There was also a white mark on his chest. It seemed to be a white flame.
"Hello. I am Garon. You should know me right? "Since the other party had introduced himself, Garon did not hide it.
"I have heard so much!" Senda shook Garon's hand heavily.
"Team Leader Nine Heads, you came at the right time." The other person stood up. "Count Senda is here to ask me for help. But everyone knows about the situation in the Kingdom. We don't even have enough people to maintain basic security."
Garon glanced at the purple mark on this person's chest. He immediately guessed that this person was Marquis Yawei, the deputy director of the headquarters. He was also the person in charge of the Nine Color Team. He was also the leader of the Purple Team.
"Ask for help?" Garon was confused.
"Yes. Currently, Kovitan's headquarters is mainly assisting the Kingdom in clearing out monster nests and restoring the territory. At the same time, we are eliminating the traitors of Obscuro Society. But this time, the Count's Green Team is in trouble. " Marquis Yawei nodded. "Before you came back, the director had already called for a team leader meeting. But due to the severe lack of manpower, he could only let the Green Team hold on for a while."
"What is going on?" Garon frowned.
"We'll talk about this later. I'll give the rewards to the Red Team first. Come." Marquis Yawei waved his hand and stood up. He walked to a pegasus statue in the corner of the room. He pulled out a drawer from the base of the statue and took out a small white crystal ball.
Holding the crystal ball, he returned to sit beside the few of them.
"This is the reward this time. Because of the high difficulty of this mission, the reward this time is also the White Level that the director ordered."
He tapped lightly on the white crystal ball.
Pew!
The crystal ball suddenly opened up like a flower bud. An opening appeared from the top. Then, layers of white petals opened up, revealing a white diamond-shaped gemstone in the core.
This white gemstone floated and spun on its own. It emitted a faint white light.
Baidel explained softly beside Garon.
"The rewards are actually arranged according to the nine colors. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, silver. White is the highest reward next to silver! This is determined according to the difficulty of the mission. A white gemstone can be exchanged for 1000 mission points! "
Garon did not know what 1000 mission points could be used for, but he knew that it was a good thing. He solemnly took the white gemstone from Yawei. He carefully kept it in his waist pouch.
"Also, the Red Team has exceeded the requirements for this mission. According to the overall strength evaluation, do you want to apply for a promotion?" Yawei continued to ask.
"Wouldn't it be more troublesome to apply for a promotion?" Garon asked.
"Yes, you'll need to compete with the higher-level team. This is a test of overall strength. "
"Then there's no need to rush." Garon shook his head.
"Then what about me …?" Earl Senda interrupted. He looked like he had lost a lot of blood. It was obvious that he had just recovered from a serious injury.
"This is indeed a troublesome problem. It's a critical period now. We really can't spare any manpower. "Yawei replied with difficulty. "Why don't you ask Team Leader Nine Heads?"
Senda shook his head as a look of helplessness flashed across his face.
"There's no time to transfer manpower from here. Even if Team Leader Nine Heads is willing, we don't have that much time. Forget it, I'll go back and inform the others. This mission is considered a failure. "
"I can't do anything if you put it that way." Yawei smiled bitterly. "The manpower over there has already been transferred away."
Senda scratched his head in frustration. He didn't look like an aristocrat at all. He helplessly excused himself from Garon and Yawei and left the office.
Garon carefully explained the current situation to Marquis Yawei and Baidel.
Most of Kovitan's manpower had been sent out to clear out the various monster nests and reclaim their original territories. However, both sides had their own victories and losses. It was a stalemate. If it wasn't for the fact that most of the elites from the Secret Service had to return for this Trust Ceremony, they would probably continue to go out and help the Kingdom eliminate those mutated monsters.
The National Service, the Secret Service, and the Geometry Service were each responsible for one direction. The remaining most troublesome direction was taken care of by Kovitan itself. The reclamation operation had been going on. They had already pushed a third of the West Farm's defensive line outwards. They had barely managed to reclaim half of their original territories.
However, they were facing a shortage of resources. The resources and ores used by the totem users to repair their totems were running out. However, the monsters outside were still endless, as if there was no end to them.
It wasn't just Kovitan. Daniela was also in the same situation. Only Ender was slightly better. They had giant stone statues. However, it was said that a few days ago, Ender lost two giant stone statues consecutively. They were both destroyed by a giant flying dragon monster with three pairs of transparent cicada wings. Now that Ender had returned to defend, all the elites outside were anxious to resist the attack of this monster army.
The Poison Hag from before had originally planned to return to Ender because of this reason.
"Overall, the situation in the Royal Alliance is now in a stalemate. The three main territories, Dragon Territory, Rainbow Territory, and Black Territory, are also showing signs of joining forces. Obviously, they are also facing the counterattack of the strong monsters. Under the situation that the situation can't be broken, His Majesty's current plan is to revitalize all industries and restore the country's comprehensive system. Otherwise, without the support of industry, no matter how strong the army is, it won't be able to continue fighting. "
Marquis Yawei was obviously in a high position. He understood the situation much more clearly.
