Year 20XX of the Kelal calendar, October 9th, two o 'clock in the afternoon.
San Diego International Agricultural Group Headquarters, United States of America, in a conference room.
More than ten men and women in different outfits were sitting around a conference table, having a quiet discussion.
A gray-haired Caucasian man in a suit and leather shoes sat on the main seat of the long and narrow conference table.
He was the company's president, Count William.
No one knew Count William's full name. They didn't even know if his real name had the word William. No one knew how old he was, where he came from, or where he got his title from.
The name "Count William" had become a symbol, just like "Prince Yu" … Actually, anyone could be Prince Yu, as long as they were capable enough to be worthy of this title.
Therefore, people might see different versions of Count William in different places (such as product packaging or advertisements). Actually, this wasn't a bug. It was just that "Count William" wasn't a fixed person to begin with.
At this moment, the count was participating in the company's weekly meeting.
The main topic of this meeting was about the United States President. Because next year was the election year, the Holy Land Yago Group needed to discuss which candidate they should support this time.
Just as the meeting was being carried out in an orderly manner, the electronic door of the conference room suddenly opened.
In less than two seconds, everyone in the meeting immediately stopped talking and turned their gazes in the direction of the door … They saw an officer in military uniform quickly walk in through the door. He was sweating profusely and had a nervous expression as he said, "Sorry to disturb everyone …" He gulped and looked at Count William, who was sitting furthest away from him. "Sir, may I have a word with you?"
"No." Unexpectedly, Count William didn't even think about it before replying.
After the officer was stunned for three seconds, Count William added, "Colonel, you are new here, so you might not know about our situation." He paused and spread out his hands. "No matter how you do things in the army, you have to follow our rules here in the Holy Land Yago Group. At this moment, everyone in this room has a higher position than you. Therefore, you don't have the right to decide who you should report your information to and who you shouldn't report to … Only I have this right. "
The count's words were not polite, but the domineering aura revealed between the lines made it impossible for anyone to refute.
"Yes, sir." The next second, the man called Colonel responded obediently. Then, he raised his voice and said, "There's an emergency now. Can you report it directly here?"
"Mm." Count William nodded. "Go ahead."
After receiving the order, the colonel stood still in his standard military posture and began to speak, "About 15 minutes ago, traces of intruders were found at the northern edge of the jungle. Before I came to report, the casualties of the defense force had already exceeded 50 people."
As soon as this was said, the entire conference room was filled with whispers.
Count William frowned and muttered, "Invaders?" "The northern part of the 'jungle' should be a no-man's land, right? Our satellites are monitoring that area 24 hours a day. Radars, anti-air cannons, and minefields have also been set up properly. What kind of transportation did the invaders use to get here?"
"Uh …" The colonel hesitated for a moment. "Sir, there is no 'army'."
"What do you mean?" When Count William asked this question, he had already guessed the answer in his heart.
"According to the video data sent back from the frontline and the reports from the soldiers …" The colonel replied, "There's only one intruder."
"But you just said that you've already suffered more than 50 casualties," William continued.
"Yes …" The colonel said, "It's all done by that one person."
As soon as these words were said, the people around the conference table became even more restless. The whispers gradually turned into a clamor.
"Silence!" Seeing this, Count William shouted sternly.
Before his voice died away, the entire conference room was once again filled with silence.
"Hmph … You're making a fuss over nothing." After confirming the situation, Count William's reaction was unexpectedly calm. "Looks like … We've encountered a 'super soldier.'" As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at the man sitting on his right. "Captain Dongxian, what do you think?"
Captain Dongxian was a black man with a free and easy ponytail. He wore a white suit and black trousers, a black tie, and a pair of glasses.
After being questioned by the count, Captain Dongxian pondered for a few seconds. Then, he spoke Chinese that seemed to be imitating a Westerner's accent … He replied, "It's most likely the Japanese again. Over the years, they've repeatedly used diplomatic means to obtain the import rights of Jinkela, but they've all failed. Last year, the mercenary team that was airdropped into the 'jungle' was either killed or poisoned when they were captured. However, judging from some clues … It's very likely that they were sent by the Japanese to steal our secrets." He paused for half a second and continued, "According to my speculation, this so-called 'super soldier' is probably a new method that they've developed."
"Hmm …" Count William listened and pondered for a moment. Then, he said, "No matter who sent this' intruder, 'right now, it's a fact that he alone killed 50 of our special forces guards …" As he spoke, he glanced at the men and women around the conference table. "If we leave him alone … Although we can easily kill him when he comes near the headquarters, I'm afraid that we'll lose more soldiers who were lying in ambush in the' jungle. 'If the president and the military use this matter to pressure us after this, we might have to compensate them with a few more bags of Jinkela … That's not good."
He said this in front of the colonel … a member of the US military. However, no one seemed to think that there was anything wrong with it.
"Wesson." At this time, a person suddenly stood up from the conference table. He spoke in Cantonese and volunteered, "Since this is a matter of security, I, Liang Feifan, the head of the security department, naturally can't sit back and do nothing. I think … Why don't I personally lead the team and dispatch the 'Four Famous Hunters' to capture the intruder alive?"
"Hmph …" Before Count William could respond, a person next to Liang Feifan snorted coldly and spoke in Cantonese, "If the Four Famous Hunters are going to take action, then you can just lie on the side. In the end, won't you be the one who takes the credit?"
"Liu Xing! What are you talking about? I'm the head of the department, so it's not your turn to interrupt. " When Liang Feifan was facing Count William, he was very respectful. However, when he turned his head to look at Liu Xing, it was a completely different expression.
"What? You're angry because I'm right? "Liu Xing did not show any signs of weakness. He also slammed the table and stood up, going tit for tat with Liang Feifan.
"Why don't you try to say another sentence?" Liang Feifan continued to glare at him.
"Fine, I'll say it." Liu Xing also responded with his veins popping out. "Shit! Liang Feifan! "
"You!" Liang Feifan's reaction was very interesting. "… Again?" It seemed that this was not the first time he had heard this line …
"What? Can't you hear it? "Liu Xing was especially enthusiastic." I'll speak again if you hear it! If you hear it again, I'll continue! I'll speak until you hear it! Sh * t! Liang Feifan! "
The two of them glared at each other, one after the other, completely ignoring the gazes of the people around them.
The people around them seemed to be used to this kind of scene. Some rolled their eyes, some looked around. In any case, they were all used to it and did not want to get involved.
"Alright … That's enough …" After the two of them quarreled for a full five minutes, Count William opened his mouth and became the peacemaker. "The two of you … Don't argue anymore. The two of you might as well go together. Don't mobilize the Four Famous Hunters for the time being … Anyway, with the cultivation of the two of you, it should be more than enough to deal with an intruder."
Since the count had spoken, the two of them did not say anything more. Moreover, the count's suggestion was more fair.
Just like this, facing the sudden attack of the mysterious intruder, the first two "assassins" sent out by the Holy Land's Ya Ge … set off.
At this time, almost everyone felt that Liang Feifan and Liu Xing could easily deal with the intruder. Only the person sitting on the left of Count William … A young white man wearing the same clothes as the captain of the East Deity team, had a serious expression on his face as he thought about something.
