Chapter 678: Emergency No. 49
"Forget it, I accidentally twisted my ankle when I just jumped, or you might as well come to me." Qi Lin was only halfway through his words when he suddenly leaned out half of his body and fired several shots at the other party's hideout.
"It's okay, I'll allow you to crawl over-"
The other party did not show his head, but directly threw a grenade over, and Qi Lin hurriedly hid behind the cabinet.
"Boom!!"
It seems that in order to prevent the contestants participating in this training mission from using violent means to blow up the simulated mastermind, the strength of these cabinet enclosures is comparable to that of top-of-the-line bulletproof shields, and it is difficult for the weapons provided by the organization to penetrate them and destroy the simulated mastermind body inside the cabinet.
For this reason, these cabinets can be used as indestructible bunkers.
Qi Lin and the last remaining person on the other side had no way to take anyone, and for a while, the situation fell into a stalemate.
At this moment, a striking red light suddenly lit up in the entire underground hub, and a piercing mechanical voice continued to echo in the underground space: "Due to emergency No. 49, the training mission has been terminated, and all participants have stopped all fighting and are on standby." Again, due to Emergency No. 49, the training mission was terminated, and all participants stopped all fighting and stood by in place. โ
"Emergency No. 49? What is that? Qi Lin was stunned, but he didn't choose to come out from behind the cabinet, who knows if this would be some trick played by the other party, or ...... Is it a delaying tactic used by the simulated mastermind?
And the other party also made the same choice as Qi Lin, and the deadlock was not broken until a team of black-clad and black-armored soldiers descended from the sky.
"Emergency Forty-Nine, the training mission is terminated, and you will receive new orders, this is an M-class mission, and you have no right to refuse." After saying this to Qi Lin, one of the soldiers collected his weapon and led him to a makeshift camp not far from the ruined city.
Also brought here were the strong man who was in a stalemate with Qi Lin in the computer room, Number Four, the hacker who was put down by a tranquilizer bomb, and the captive who was stuffed into the safe by them before.
Standing across from them was the bald instructor and another elegant woman with a beautiful face wearing a purple silk cheongsam.
"I'm sure you're wondering why the training mission was abruptly abortedโ" the bald instructor coughed twice.
"This is Mrs. Heya, the head of the Edas Foundation, there has been a large-scale rebellion within the Edas Foundation, due to the suddenness of the incident, the rebels occupied the Edas Foundation's headquarters No. 444 Shelter in a short period of time, and cut off all external communication channels, and the top management of the Edas Consortium has been controlled by the rebels except for Mrs. Heya, who is out on business."
"So, the concubine is here to ask for an aid deal from the organization......" Lady Heya said slowly.
"Huh? What the...... Aid......****? The buddy who had been stuffed into the safe by Qi Lin and No. 4 before was stunned, and his eyes suddenly fell on Madame Heya's charming figure.
"Idiot!" The bald instructor instantly gave this guy a shock, "It's an aid deal, in other words, it's a transactional aid, we help Lady Heya recapture the Edas Consortium, and in exchange, Lady Heya will transfer forty-nine percent of the ownership of the Edas Consortium to the organization." โ
Hearing this, Qi Lin instantly thought of the previous Cheng consortium, so it seems that Cheng Yanqiu should have reached a similar agreement with the organization at the beginning.
"Uh...... Instructor, this kind of thing is directly in this ...... Mrs. Heya said bluntly in front of her, is it really good? โ
"It doesn't matter, this is originally a condition proposed by the concubine herself." Mrs. Heya smiled slightly at Qi Lin and the five of them.
"But...... Why did this kind of thing come to us? What about the others? Qi Lin was a little puzzled.
"The closest unit to Vault 444 is the garrison of Training Ground 14, and most of the members of the Thunder Falcon team have tasks now, and they can't spare time, so only you rookies are idle, so the organization has decided to temporarily modify your training plan - rest assured, your mission is not to kill all the rebels, you only need to rescue the high-level hostages of the Edas Consortium, and you will achieve your goal."
The bald instructor snapped his fingers, and a holographic projector on the ceiling immediately presented a 3D diagram of the shelter in front of everyone.
"The private forces of the Edas Consortium will cooperate with the armored forces organized to attack the blocked main entrances of Vault 444 to help you attract the attention of the rebels, and you will infiltrate Vault 444 through a secret passageway, which is the main rescue goal of this mission-"
More than a dozen photos appeared on the holographic projection, ranging from the elderly to the four or five-year-old children, but these people all have a common feature - they are all wearing luxurious clothes and accessories, their hair and faces are very clean, and they look like people who have lived in a pampered environment for a long time, and their status is either rich or noble.
"These are the top management of the Edas consortium and their families, a total of 47 people, and according to our speculation, it is very likely that they are imprisoned in the core area of the wealthy area, which is heavily guarded and has a large number of automatic defenses......"
"Wait a minute, instructor, I have a question, if there are automatic defenses, why did the rebels capture all the top brass of the Edas Consortium?" The hacker who had been knocked down by Qi Lin with a tranquilizer bullet had already woken up, and although his limbs were still limp and weak, he could only sit in a wheelchair, but his sanity had returned to his normal state.
"Because the leader of the rebels is also a senior member of a consortium...... This is a civil strife. Mrs. Heya answered his question.
Internal rebellion...... Seizure of power...... Qi Lin suddenly felt that this incident was almost the same as the Cheng consortium.
But for some reason, he always felt that there seemed to be something else hidden in it.
The scale of the Edas consortium is not small, and the main business of the consortium is high-tech industries such as communications and computers, and it also has a lot of achievements in biological research...... And these two aspects seem to coincide with the development path of the main brain.
Could it be that I am thinking too much?
Qi Lin lowered his head and thought about it carefully, although the Edas Consortium was a civil strife, but even so, the speed at which this rebellion was launched was a little too fast...... At the beginning of the Cheng consortium, it was Cheng Yanqiu who went out and Cheng's father encountered a plot to complete the seizure of power, the Cheng consortium is much smaller than the Edas consortium, and the power structure is relatively simple, before the civil unrest, most of the directors of the board of directors have already stood on Cheng Su's side, and a behemoth like the Edas consortium, if the power grabber wants to plan a big enough rebellion, it is absolutely impossible to cover up all the details.
Behind this civil strife, will there be a shadow of the mastermind?
Moreover, the fact that Mrs. Heya found the organization for help is already very telling in itself.
Forty-nine percent of the control of the Edas consortium is equivalent to several complete Cheng consortiums, and the price is really heavy.
They will only be willing to pay this price when the authorities are no longer able to be controlled by the Edas Consortium, which even the Edas Consortium cannot control...... So what would that look like?
