Chapter 28

"Then, what do you mean, Hawk Eye?" someone at the conference table asked again, surprised and excited.

"Exactly, I think we can approach Bu Yan now. Everyone should not have forgotten the truth behind the Hangcheng battle. With just this, I believe we have a high chance of pulling Bu Yan into our organization!" Hawk Eye nodded and smiled.

"Do you have the confidence to make contact with her? Although she is just a student who hasn't graduated yet, there are no shortage of the Federation's covert operatives observing her. Once it's discovered that she's in contact with us, those wolves of the Federation will likely destroy her rather than give us the chance!"

The white-haired elder spoke again at this moment, clearly already convinced by Hawk Eye.

Hearing the elder's words, Hawk Eye's right hand clenched into a fist, his heart surging with excitement.

Then, he took a deep breath, trying to appear confident, and said with a light laugh, "This is also the third reason I'm here! Two months ago, in the ruins 300 kilometers northwest of the Eighth Base City, the exploration team members unknowingly provoked two powerful evolved zombies, causing them to directly evolve into demons, and even into the royal members of the demon race. More terrifyingly, a powerful mutant beast was also following those zombies. As the zombies evolved into demon kings, the mutant beast also evolved, becoming a demon prophet. The three successfully evolved demons have already taken control of the zombies and demon beasts within a thousand miles northwest of the Eighth Base City, and they are now surging towards the Eighth Base City!"

"The Eighth Base City has issued an S-level mobilization order to prepare for this zombie and beast tide. The graduation assessment for the Eighth Base Academy students has also been incorporated into this war. Perhaps within the city, we have few opportunities to contact Bu Yan, but outside the city, I believe the Federation's people are no match for us!"

"Don't be too optimistic. What if Bu Yan firmly refuses to join our organization? Have you thought about the consequences?" At this moment, the black-clad woman's words once again extinguished the enthusiasm in everyone's hearts.

Hearing the woman's words, the others at the conference table all looked solemn, as if they had thought of this possibility.

The white-haired elder turned his gaze to Hawk Eye, wanting to see if he had a plan for this situation.

If he could perfectly resolve these issues, then this young man's work ability was indeed commendable and worth cultivating.

But if not, it could only mean that this young man was not yet mature and needed further training!

As for the black-clad woman's suggestion, Hawk Eye was inwardly overjoyed, even ready to applaud, because only in this way could he demonstrate his meticulous preparation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, to be honest, I cannot rule out the possibility that Bu Yan will refuse. However, if we add this person, I believe the possibility of her refusal is almost zero!" Hawk Eye then lightly tapped the screen, and a plain young face appeared.

"Bu Fan, 18 years old, Bu Yan's twin brother. It seems that all the favor of heaven has been bestowed upon that little girl, while this boy, although born only ten minutes apart from Bu Yan, has no evolutionary potential, and even has a rare atavistic constitution, failing to meet even the physical standards of ordinary new humans!" Hawk Eye pointed to Bu Fan's image and introduced him.

At this moment, everyone looked at the young man in the image with a sense of sorrow, as if lamenting his unfortunate fate!

"Although on the surface, Bu Yan and Bu Fan have a distant relationship, in reality, according to our observations, Bu Yan cares deeply about her brother!" Hawk Eye then analyzed in a serious tone.

"This can't be based on guesswork. Do you have any evidence to prove this?" The black-clad woman seemed determined to contradict Hawk Eye, interrupting him with a cold voice.

"Of course. Before we came, we found out that after turning 18, Bu Fan will face enormous survival pressure. However, he unexpectedly moved to a luxury residential area in the eastern district!"

"At the same time, we discovered that Bu Yan is also in this neighborhood, and they both work for a newly established studio, reportedly preparing for 'Jianghu'!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, think about it. Without Bu Yan's help, how could Bu Fan, with his abilities, enter such a high-end studio? The strength of virtual network characters is closely related to a person's mental state, and the strength of the mental state is proportional to the physical condition of the body, which we have already verified. Without Bu Yan's help, do you think the studio would accept Bu Fan? Moreover, the owners of this studio are all of distinguished backgrounds and prominent families!"

"So, your point is that to recruit Bu Yan, we should start with Bu Fan, right?" The black-clad woman asked again in a cold voice.

"No, not 'start with him,' but we can help him. Bu Fan's biggest problem now is the survival pressure caused by his atavistic constitution. This time, he is also within the scope of the S-level mobilization order, but on the other hand, Bu Yan has to participate in the school's assessment. Without Bu Yan's help, he has no chance of surviving this war."

"But if we help her solve this problem, what do you think her perception of us will be? I believe that our large base can easily accommodate one more person!" Hawk Eye said with a light, teasing tone at the end.

The others at the conference table nodded continuously, clearly very satisfied with Hawk Eye's proposal. If they could indeed recruit a potential king through this, the cost would be well worth it.

"Since that's the case, Hawk Eye, the matter of Bu Fan is entrusted to you. I don't want the children of the base to remain outside. Their parents have made great contributions to the base. You must bring him back safely!"

"Yes, Commander, I will ensure the task is completed!" Hearing the white-haired elder's words, Hawk Eye stood up straight, saluted the elder, and said solemnly.

"Alright, that's it. The rest is up to you!" The white-haired elder waved his hand, said to those present, and then got up and left.

Subsequently, various decisions about the base were discussed among the others, but this was no longer Hawk Eye's concern. His goal was to bring Bu Fan back during the upcoming war.

However, Hawk Eye did not know that shortly after he left the base, in a dark room, a sinister voice slowly sounded: "Send the Southwest Falcon. Find the man named Bu Fan before Hawk Eye does, and then turn him into one of ours. Understand?"

"Yes!" A cold voice in the darkness quickly responded and then vanished into the darkness.

Similarly, in the Eighth Base City, in a luxurious villa, the elegant Qiao Yuhao was standing in front of a large window, holding a glass of bright red wine, gazing at the sunset on the horizon.

"Tap! Tap! Tap!"

A sharp sound of footsteps came from behind Qiao Yuhao. Then, Qiao Yuhao turned gracefully, and a tall man with a pale face and a yawn, wearing simple slippers, clattered down the stairs.

"Hey, Qiao, I sometimes really doubt whether you have any interest in women at all. I was thinking of sharing one of those twin sisters with you!" The man walked up to Qiao Yuhao, took the wine glass from his hand, and drank it all in one go, showing no regard for manners.

Qiao Yuhao was not angry, still wearing a charming smile, and said softly, "Tony, I'm not as perverted as you. I wonder if those twin sisters survived under your hands."

"Hehe, your Eastern women are great in every way, but they lack the fire. Speaking of which, that girl Bu Yan at the base academy is really something. One day, I'll bring her here and thoroughly ravage her. I wonder how long she can last under me!" Tony thought of the woman who had embarrassed him at the academy and couldn't help but sneer.

"Is that so, Tony? You still remember your grudge?" Qiao Yuhao, who had poured another glass of wine, idly swirled it and said softly.

"Hey, Qiao, you have to help me. We're good friends and brothers!" Tony put his arm on Qiao Yuhao's shoulder and said seriously.

"Of course. In fact, I've already found a way for you. Tony, as long as you capture this person, Bu Yan will be yours for the taking!" Qiao Yuhao then took out a photo and handed it to Tony, saying calmly.

The image of Bu Fan was clearly visible in the photo.

"This person? Who is he?" Looking at the photo of Bu Fan, Tony asked hesitantly. The laws in the base were now very strict, and even he dared not be too reckless, especially after the outrageous things he did a couple of years ago, which earned him a severe warning from the base's management.

"He's called Bu Fan, Bu Yan's brother. However, he is just a first-stage atavistic warrior with no combat ability. Moreover, he is also within the scope of the mobilization order this time!" Qiao Yuhao said softly to Tony, as if it were a trivial matter.

"Ha ha, great! Qiao, you're really my best friend. Don't worry, I understand what you mean. I'll get it done for you within three days! Alright, I'll be off. I need to plan this out!" Tony excitedly patted Qiao Yuhao's shoulder, said loudly, and then left excitedly.

Watching Tony's departing figure, a hint of a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Qiao Yuhao's lips.

"Hehe, Tony, who else but a good friend would do this for you!" Qiao Yuhao murmured softly, then raised his hand, drank the wine in one gulp, and turned to leave!
