Highway Survival for All: My RV's Infinite Evolution

Elena said, "I think Father will surely summon you all when he returns."

Leonard, who was standing nearby, spoke up at the opportune moment: "Where is the ceremony to be held? Should I deploy elite Star Shield squadrons for security?"

Elena shook her head: "To prevent leaks, I'll let you know the location later!"

She paused, then said solemnly:

"Fellow citizens, once the Father returns, the people's faith will be rekindled! And those who took advantage of the situation—the Mechanicus and the Mechanic Eldar—will pay a bloody price for their blasphemy!"

"Therefore, this matter is a top secret of the Empire! Please keep it a secret until the ceremony begins!"

"clear!"

The four giants all nodded in agreement.

If there is even the slightest possibility of the God Emperor returning, then that is the only hope for the entire empire.

Therefore, even if they harbored a sliver of doubt about this "purification ritual," they would never dare to speak out and stop it.

......

Half an hour later.

As the meeting ended, the three holographic projections flickered a few times and disappeared into thin air.

Only Leonard and Elena remained in the conference room.

Elena raised her hand to rub her temples and whispered, "Based on all the intelligence I've gathered over the past few days using all my undercover agents... there's a very high chance there's a mole among these five members of the Supreme Council!"

Leonard's grip on the sword hilt tightened suddenly. He took a deep breath and sighed.

"The Supreme Council has only five members... If you and I are removed, that leaves Dominic, Alexander, and Otto. If any one of these three is a traitor, it would be a major earthquake for the Empire."

"The most troublesome thing is that if there really is a mole among them, holding such a high position, we simply cannot find him using conventional methods."

"So, we need to set a trap," Elaine said with a sneer, "a trap they know is a trap, but they have no choice but to take the bait."

Hearing this, Leonard narrowed his eyes: "So, all that elaborate purification ritual you just described... was just a scheme you used to lure me in?"

Elena did not deny it. "Yes, that was only part of the plan."

Leonard frowned slightly: "Then what about the memories the God-Emperor left you...?"

"The memories are real." Elena's voice suddenly became somewhat hoarse. "Father... He has truly been completely corrupted."

Upon hearing this definitive answer, Leonard let out a long sigh.

For the empire, the God-Emperor's fall was undoubtedly suffocating. It not only signified the collapse of faith, but also revealed a chilling truth...

There are also terrifying beings lurking in the spirit world that can even corrupt a god-emperor!

and......

Since the God Emperor has already been corrupted...

Leonard dared not imagine what kind of collapse and despair would occur to the imperial people who had fanatically believed in Him their entire lives if one day the God Emperor descended upon Torres in that indescribable monstrous form, tearing through the sky.

That would be an apocalypse a hundred times more terrifying than a full-scale invasion by the mechanical Eldar!

Silence fell over the room.

After a long while, Leonard seemed to remember something and suddenly sat up straight:

"In the past few days, the frequency of reports of Ke-type creatures has surged from various locations! They have taken over the wilderness and even infected a large number of mutated beasts."

"Those monsters are like madmen, attacking anything living they see. They attack passing caravans, patrolling soldiers, and turn any creatures they come into contact with into tentacle-covered monsters!"

Leonard stared at Elendina and continued, "What's even more terrifying is that they've begun to act in an organized manner. I strongly suspect that a high-level being has emerged from among these Keloid creatures. Is there any mention of such a thing in the God-Emperor's memories?"

Elena nodded, her tone grave:

"I was just about to tell you this. My father specifically warned me that these tentacle monsters are one of countless species among the Kree-type beings. They possess extremely strong mental pollution and assimilation abilities."

"Once discovered, we must eliminate them all at all costs! If they are allowed to grow in number, they will become a natural disaster even more terrifying than the green-skinned orcs!"

Leonard nodded emphatically. "I understand."

……

After Leonard left, Elena rubbed her throbbing temples and let out a long sigh.

Internally, there is the allure of cults; externally, the wilderness is polluted by mechanical spirits, green-skinned orcs, and Kel'thas monsters…

The Torres Empire has truly been pushed to the very edge of a precipice.

After a long while, Elena composed herself and then pressed the communicator on the table: "Call Zhen Hao in."

A short while later.

Zhen Haoyun looked puzzled and walked in.

"Lord City Lord, you wanted to see me?" Zhen Haoyun rubbed his hands together and asked tentatively, "Do you still want to buy super alloy from me? I'll give you a 1% discount this time!"

Upon hearing the words "super alloy," Elena's originally cold and beautiful face immediately darkened, and she glared at him irritably: "I'm not buying it!"

After learning about Zhen Haoyun's relationship with Lin Hui, Elena immediately realized that she had been set up by Lin Hui.

That guy deliberately mentioned superalloys on the list, then he got to have his cake and eat it too!

This is practically fleecing the empire so much that sparks are practically flying out!

Elena cursed Lin Hui ten times in her heart for being shameless, but when she thought of Lin Hui's contributions in turning the tide and saving the empire from disaster in the Battle of Manchester and the Desert Battlefield, she finally forced herself to suppress her frustration.

Lin Hui is now the Empire's biggest strategic partner, so let's take advantage of him a little.

"I called you here because there is a highly confidential matter at hand."

Elena took a deep breath, regaining her composure as the city lord. "I've already spoken with Chairman Lin Hui. Please, you must personally deliver this item to him intact!"

As they were talking.

Elena extended her fair palm, and in her palm lay a dark gold spatial ring.

Upon hearing that it was related to Lin Hui, Zhen Haoyun immediately dropped his playful demeanor. He cautiously asked, "Lord City Lord, is there anything else besides this?"

"That's all, you can go now." Elena rubbed her temples.

Zhen Haoyun left the conference room in a flash.

As soon as he stepped out the door, Leon, a blond man dressed like a playboy, came up to him and hooked his arm around Zhen Haoyun's shoulder: "Brother Zhen, did my older sister give you a hard time?"

Zhen Haoyun waved his hand, "No!"

"That's good!" Leon breathed a sigh of relief, raising an eyebrow. "I've been busy with the scrap metal business these past few days and haven't been to the casino. Shall we go have some fun now?"

Zhen Haoyun originally wanted to go back to rest early, but after thinking about how much Leon had helped him these past few days, he nodded in agreement.

However, Zhen Haoyun did not forget his mission before heading to the casino.

He secretly took out the spatial ring and sent it to Lin Hui through the Huihuang Chamber of Commerce group chat.
