Seeing Ah Sha being surrounded and brought out from the basement, the gang members on the ground finally realized who these people were after.
The boss scowled miserably and muttered: "Who!? Who kidnapped this girl!? "
Everyone lowered their heads without saying anything, thinking to themselves: Is there any point in asking that now?
Seeing his subordinates who used to be so obedient to him being so disrespectful, the boss could only feel dejected. He knew that he was done for.
Regardless of who this girl was, the military wouldn't let them go so easily since they had put in so much effort.
The entire village was thoroughly investigated, all illegal fortifications were removed, all firearms were confiscated, and all criminals were taken away for interrogation. This clean-up was left to the local authorities.
The Lan Bai Club was only responsible for taking away the anomaly and Ah Sha.
In the temporary military camp outside the village, the amulet was sealed and sent to the outpost, while the rest of the matter was left to the 'D-class personnel' to handle.
After the Darwin team briefly interrogated Ah Sha and understood the entire situation, as well as the amulet's characteristics, Waveshift announced the end of the mission.
[The Darwin team has completed the mission to contain α-1008. Team member Yan Wei and all members who lost their shadows have been restored by D- 80055 through the use of an anomaly. All radiation sickness will be completely healed in 3 weeks]
[Chris, construction mission difficulty: Alpha-class, 68 points, evaluation in progress]
[The Darwin team, 91 points, excellent evaluation, MVP of the game: Mo Qiong]
Waveshift was in charge of the entire mission, giving evaluations for both sides.
Mo Qiong asked: "I want to know where the points were deducted"
Every mission had a point deduction system, a full score was 100 points, 90 points was excellent, and a full score was perfect containment.
Waveshift replied: "One team member and five external members were heavily injured, three innocent civilians were injured, and … the cost of the mission was over 10 million USD, too extravagant"
Mo Qiong sighed: "Yan Wei and the others being injured was unavoidable at the time, so perfect containment requires everyone to be unharmed?"
"I know that's harsh, but this is one of the criteria for perfect containment. Alpha-class anomalies can often be perfectly contained, but … in a real mission, you shouldn't purposely pursue perfect containment. This is only an evaluation, there are too many anomalies that can't be perfectly contained. You must remember that containment comes first, only the others can come later "Waveshift explained.
Mo Qiong nodded. Thinking back, he had actually seen a perfect containment before.
That was when he first knew about the Lan Bai Society and met Che Yun at Xiagang. At that time, she and the person called Sister You took in a fortune-telling master.
At that time, it did not cause any waves at all. They directly took that guy in under the name of spreading feudal superstitions. It could be said that it was extremely easy. It was definitely a perfect adoption.
From this, it could be seen how good the containment was. The crux of the matter was the containment. Their efforts could only affect a part of it.
"Eh? That's not right. Instructor, why would you spend 10 million USD? Mo Qiong, what did you do? " Alexander did some calculations and suddenly asked. After all, Mo Qiong's performance this time was outstanding. As the temporary team leader, the progress of the mission was very fast. When he returned, the mission was almost finished. Mo Qiong was the clearest about where the money went.
"I didn't do anything." Mo Qiong also found it strange. The containment box did not cost much, and the medical costs of Yan Wei and the others could not be so expensive. After all, they did not have terminal diseases.
All in all, including the cost of setting up the bait, it was at most one million US dollars. The money spent as bait was not considered a consumption.
"Wait a minute, how much did you spend on this army?" Mo Qiong suddenly asked. From afar, he saw a large number of military vehicles sending people over. Inside and outside, the entire small town of Pliss, including a few nearby towns, were under military control.
The gang members were stunned. Oh my god, how many troops are you sending to deal with us, a small gang in the countryside?
Alexander's face stiffened. "I … I just contacted the local police and asked them to send reinforcements to surround this place. I only asked for a total of 100 people. After all, it's not easy for us to attack a town alone. We have to cooperate with the local government. It's also convenient for them to clean up the mess and deal with public opinion. "
Mo Qiong knew that sometimes, it was necessary for the local government to step in.
But … there were more than 100 people. There were at least 500 people in the first batch.
Now that the matter had been settled, thousands of people were arriving one after another. What were they doing?
"Cough cough … Let me introduce myself. I'm the commander of the Kenyan Army, Wan Derui. It's an honor to meet all of you." A black general walked over with a smile and shook everyone's hands.
He was very surprised by the number of women and even children in Darwin's team, but he didn't say anything about it.
Waveshift smiled coldly and didn't respond.
Alexander could only say, "Hello, general. I only asked for 100 people. Why did you send thousands …"
"Hahaha! Your heroism is really amazing. For the safety of the people, all the members of the council have the responsibility to cooperate with you … Hmm, who will sign this bill? "Wan Derui didn't answer Alexander's question. Instead, he took out a bill.
Alexander paid the bill. On it was the cost of 8,000 soldiers in this operation.
"Ah?" Looking at the bill that was more than 8 million USD, everyone's expression changed.
Alexander gritted his teeth. He was the one who had recruited this team. Although he had only asked for the paramilitary police force, he had not thought much of it when the general had personally led 500 elites over. He had thought that the other party was just being enthusiastic and supportive.
Unexpectedly, those 500 people were just the beginning. Wan Derui also transferred 8,000 soldiers from various places. Some of them were still on the way.
Normally, the military expenses in a mission were paid by the Blue and White Society.
This was the agreement. When Waveshift called for missile support, it was also reimbursed by the society.
Of course, Waveshift had spent a lot more money than this, but the nature of the battle was different. That was a real encounter, but this time it was just a drill. Moreover, it was only an Alpha-level shelter. Spending too much unnecessary money would naturally result in a deduction of points.
"I didn't ask you to transfer so many soldiers!" Alexander frowned.
Wan Derui smiled. "But you didn't refuse. After all, it's a dangerous mission. The more the better. How about this, forget about those who haven't arrived yet. I'll waive another million. "
As he spoke, he crossed out a few battalions and then had Alexander sign.
This was Alexander's negligence. He didn't expect this at all. He didn't stop the Kenyan army from sending so many people, thinking that they were kind and wouldn't ask him for money. After all, they didn't even fire.
Who knew that when they saw that he didn't care, they would transfer as many people as they could. No matter how nicely they said it, they still needed money.
Everyone frowned and looked at Waveshift, but he didn't move. They realized that Waveshift was teaching them a lesson. Not everyone fought for their beliefs.
Alexander sighed and prepared to sign his name.
But just as the pen landed, Waveshift suddenly took action. He snatched the bill, glanced at it, and tore off most of it, leaving only a small note.
"I said a hundred people, so it's a hundred people. You can sign this." Waveshift waved the note and said. Only a small detachment of the police force was left on it.
Wan Derui was stunned. "You're the one in charge?"
"That's right. In the drill, they were the ones who signed the money. But in reality, you can only get the money from the Blue White Society if you get the bill signed by me," Waveshift said.
Everyone understood. Indeed, the mission didn't really end until just now. They had spent this extra money in the 'plot' and thus lost points.
But outside of the plot, Waveshift didn't want to give this money.
Wan Derui said, "I mobilized fourteen tanks and eight thousand soldiers from the eastern provinces of Kenya. I even disrupted the original military deployment. Don't you want to accept the consequences?"
Waveshift said seriously, "General, please don't tell me this. The military deployment of each country is the secret of each country. The Blue White Society has never interfered with your country's military mission, and we can't interfere."
Mo Qiong smiled. This was basically saying, "Your military deployment, what does it have to do with me?"
That was indeed the case. Although Alexander didn't refuse, it could still be seen as Wan Derui's own military deployment.
Wan Derui knew that he was cheating money, but he thought that the rich Blue White Society wouldn't care about such a small amount of money. The people here just needed to sign and report it.
But Waveshift didn't give him any face.
Wan Derui stared at Waveshift. After a moment of silence, he said, "A hundred people is too little. Your people didn't refuse the addition. I have to be responsible for my soldiers. Five million, no less. You don't want to have a bad relationship with us, right?"
Yi Bo smiled and signed his name on the piece of paper, saying, "A police force of 100 people, and they didn't fire a single shot, only 20,000. You can talk to our finance department or appeal to the Global Council. Anyway, I only signed this much. "
Wan Derui was furious. He had gone through so much trouble, but the other party was only giving twenty thousand. What was twenty thousand?
"Do you really want to do this? Your deployment in Kenya has always been convenient for our president. Our cooperation has always been good. I don't want anything bad to happen to your industry in the future, "Wan Derui said.
Waveshift smiled in surprise. "General, when did you take office?"
Wan Derui was stunned and said, "Last year."
"No wonder … General, we won't be watching your military operations here. We'll take our leave first." Waveshift handed him the slip of paper and left with his men.
Wan Derui stared and said, "Stop!"
"Stop them!"
He threw away the small piece of paper and ordered the soldiers to stop the crowd.
Waveshift looked back at him and said, "Your president is really blind. You better contact him quickly. Don't do anything on your own. Really."
Wan Derui obviously knew how powerful Lan Bai Society was, but no matter how powerful they were, they still needed the support of the Global Council.
Although he didn't dare to do anything to the members, he didn't think that one member could represent Lan Bai Society's attitude. Even if this matter was reported, it would be settled in the end.
But Waveshift's temperament made him afraid. He had just been promoted last year and knew of Lan Bai Society's existence.
For more than a year, if there was any cooperation with Lan Bai Society, it would be the missile support not long ago. At that time, the president asked him to launch all the missiles. He even objected, saying that if they all supported Lan Bai Society, what would happen to their national defense?
In the end, the Blue and White Society reimbursed all the expenses and pulled strings with a certain big country to sell the arms. They could totally buy a new batch of arms, and they even made a little profit.
After this incident, Alexander contacted him today and asked him to help provide a hundred guards. He immediately transferred all the troops he could mobilize.
He wanted to get some money for himself, but the members of Lan Bai Society didn't give him any.
This was indeed money outside the agreement, but it was just a matter of signing. Wan Derui hesitated for a moment, but still contacted the president and told him about this.
The president said in shock, "What? You detained the members of Lan Bai Society? "
Wan Derui was shocked and hurriedly said, "No, I just asked them not to leave. After all, they didn't sign the bill. Mr. President, I can't reject this troop payment, right?"
After the president understood the situation, he said angrily, "Didn't I tell you to maintain a good relationship with Lan Bai Society? How dare you blackmail them?"
"How is this blackmail? It's just a few million. Every year, they earn tens of billions from Kenya. This is just a return. Didn't you say so? Their money will eventually be spent on us, "said Wan Derui.
The president roared, "Spend it on us, not on you, stupid pig! They don't care about a few million, but they care about blackmail! You also know that they have a lot of businesses in Kenya! If they shift their economy, do you know how much money we will lose? You offended Lan Bai Society for a few million. Are you stupid!? "
Wan Derui said in shock, "How can it be? It's just one member, and not even a high-ranking member. The others are all interns. Why would their relationship with us become rigid because of one person?"
The president said angrily, "Didn't I tell you that Lan Bai Society is a sovereign entity, and it's a hidden economy in the world?"
"I know." Wan Derui still didn't understand.
The president said angrily, "You know? Such a huge economy is enough to shake the world. Moreover, they are responsible for the survival of mankind, and the global council supports them. They are very orderly and will not sanction us, but as long as the economic center of gravity in East Africa shifts to Tanzania next door, our economic growth will stagnate, and Tanzania will soar into the sky and become the new generation of East Africa's star. "
"Do you think a member won't affect Lan Bai Society's attitude? Every member is incomparably precious! Let me ask you, if Japan only has about ten thousand members, or even a few thousand, then how much influence does one of them have? It doesn't need much, because it's definitely not something your few million USD can compare to! "
Wan Derui was stunned. A hidden economy, their official members were like citizens.
With such a huge economy, Lan Bai Society wasn't the only one, but they had the smallest "population"!
He thought that an ordinary member was nothing, but he was gravely mistaken.
Any official member was equivalent to one of the few thousand citizens of a big country. Their influence was shockingly huge. Although they didn't have much power on the surface, they definitely couldn't be provoked.
"Resign, Wan Derui."
