Chapter 26

While Bu Fan was fully devoted to his training and enhancement, several agile figures were rapidly moving through the forest in a secluded hill area hundreds of kilometers away from the Eighth Base City.

These figures were extremely agile, like mountain cats, leaping and moving swiftly among the dense trees.

Soon, they passed through the forest and came to a steep cliff. They slowly walked to one side of the cliff, found a protruding rock, and gently pressed it down.

"Rumble!"

A loud noise echoed, and then a massive rock that seemed to be part of the cliff slowly moved to the side.

Behind the rock, a dark cave entrance appeared. Without hesitation, the few people quickly entered the cave. After they all went in, the rock slowly closed again.

Inside the dark cave passage, there was no light, and one could not see their fingers in front of their face. However, the few people continued to move forward at an extremely fast pace, as if they knew the situation here like the back of their hand.

Finally, after advancing for an unknown number of kilometers, the scene before their eyes suddenly brightened, and a huge underground base appeared before them.

This was a hollowed-out mountain, with the natural hills serving as the best cover for the underground base.

On the stone walls inside the mountain, hundreds of large energy lights were embedded, emitting a bright light that illuminated the entire base like daylight.

"Stop! Please verify your identity!" Just as a few people in the group were marveling at the scale of the underground base, two armed soldiers suddenly appeared from behind the rocks, pointing their guns at the men who had just entered, and said expressionlessly.

"Head of the Ninth Intelligence Department under the General Staff of the Eighth Base City, codename Hawk Eye, identity code 370318749, identity details: The Yellow River comes from the sky!"

"Adviser Shen Ling of the General Staff of the Eighth Base City, identity code 370317721, identity details: The sun sets behind the mountain!"

...

"Two more, who are they, and why haven't they been reported in detail?" Seeing the two who had not reported their identities, the base guards immediately pointed their guns at them and said coldly.

"These are two new compatriots we have developed in the Eighth Base City. They are high-level researchers, and their identities have been verified by the General Staff. We request permission to bring them into the base for work!" The tall man with the codename Hawk Eye said loudly at this moment.

"Sorry, according to base regulations, men with unknown identities attempting to enter the base must be temporarily detained until their identities are verified. Please cooperate!" The base sentry continued to say expressionlessly, then gestured, and several more armed soldiers appeared from the protruding rock, holding guns and surrounding the two men.

"Don't panic, Brother Tang, Brother Li. It's just a temporary detention. I will enter their identities and prove their identities to the security department. You will be released soon!" Hawk Eye turned back and said seriously to the two men who were surrounded.

"Don't worry, Brother Zhao. Since we chose to trust you, we won't mind this difficulty. Gentlemen, take us away; we won't resist!" One of the two men, who looked somewhat fair-skinned, said softly to the guards beside him.

The guards then quickly took the two men away, while the few who had reported their identities walked into the base.

...

"Mr. Tang Hongqiu, 48 years old, a first-level researcher at the Eighth Base City's weapons research base, an expert in light energy weapon manufacturing. He originally had an elderly father, a wife, and a daughter. Five years ago, his father suddenly died at home, and his wife and daughter disappeared. A month later, their bodies were found in the wilderness outside the city, having died from torture and severe physical humiliation before their deaths."

"Mr. Li Yu, 30 years old, married for three and a half years, a second-level researcher in spatial geography at the Eighth Base City. He participated in the research of the third-level spatial spirit ring recently launched by the Eighth Base City. Similar to Mr. Tang Hongqiu, his wife suddenly disappeared one night two years ago. Two months later, she appeared on Central Road Street, naked and mentally deranged. A month later, she died by suicide."

In a spacious and bright meeting room, the man with the codename Hawk Eye was standing in front of a light screen, pointing to the information displayed and detailing the situations of the two men to a group of people at the conference table.

"Commander, Chief of Staff, after verification, the misfortunes of these two men were actually caused by the same person, the son of Councilor Donald of the Eighth Base City, Little Tony. Later, due to their special identities, the General Staff began to gradually approach and contact them, and eventually brought them into the organization. They have been under observation for nearly two years, during which they provided the organization with confidential research information and technical data from the Eighth Base City multiple times. After evaluation, they can fully become core members of the organization!"

After finishing, Hawk Eye looked at two elderly men at the conference table, one of whom had a head full of white hair and looked quite aged.

The other, although also looking somewhat old, was wearing a neat military uniform, sitting straight in his chair.

"Old An, what do you think? Can we bring these two into the base?" The white-haired elder turned to the military uniformed elder beside him and asked.

The military uniformed elder nodded and said softly, "I trust Hawk Eye's work ability. Since the General Staff has reviewed the information of these two men, and they are both high-tech experts we urgently need, I think we can approve their entry into the base."

"Alright, if that's the case, let's bring them in!" The white-haired elder agreed after hearing the military uniformed elder's opinion.

"Hawk Eye, is this all you came for? Is there anything else you want to say?" The military uniformed elder then looked at Hawk Eye in front of the light screen, a smile on his lips, and asked softly.

Hawk Eye nodded, then lightly tapped the light screen a few times. An image of a young girl appeared on the screen, her beautiful face and stern expression causing the few people present to look surprised.

"Who is this girl? Is she your daughter, Hawk Eye? What, you want her to work in the base at such a young age?" Someone at the conference table, familiar with Hawk Eye, joked with a smile.

Hawk Eye shook his head lightly, then tapped the light screen again, and a row of information about the girl appeared on the screen.

"Bu Yan, 18 years old, a graduate of the Eighth Base City Base Academy, an S-level ice-fire balanced dual-ability genius. During her research at the Eighth Base City Base Academy, she passed all subject evaluations with perfect scores and is hailed as a candidate for the new generation of kings within the academy!"

As Hawk Eye spoke, all the people around the conference table changed their expressions. Even the white-haired elder and the military uniformed elder, who had been looking at Hawk Eye with a calm gaze, showed a serious expression after hearing his words.

Everyone knew what it meant to be a candidate for the king!
