Delta: I have a 1-Haf Coin instant kill system!

GTI Headquarters

Pierce Walker held an encrypted communication in his hand.

The thick stack of documents contained the aerospace base action report submitted by DeepBlue two months ago.

His adjutant stood in front of the desk, waiting quietly.

Walker read the report over and over again, tapping his fingertips on the paper.

"This report is flawless, but something feels... off to me."

"Hudson is a cunning old fox. He always leaves himself an escape route. It's possible that he framed Demulan and Geheros for joining the R organization after this defeat."

Walker put down the report, his fingers interlaced on the table.

"But according to Deep Blue's description, Hudson suffered a near one-sided defeat, while Demulan, although detained, turned the tide at the last moment."

"And that Raven, that Jetwind, Reina... they're all from the R organization."

He raised his head, his gaze sharp.

"Furthermore, I have verified that Demulan and Geheros cut off all contact with Hafk headquarters at almost the same time."

"This suggests that what Hudson said might be true!"

The adjutant nodded slightly.

"You mean, they betrayed us?"

"It's probably more than just betrayal."

Walker stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

"They have better places to go."

He was silent for a few seconds, then his fingertips lightly traced the glass.

"The R organization...aren't they appearing a bit too frequently lately?"

"Yes, sir." The adjutant opened the folder in his hand and read aloud.

"Based on the current scattered intelligence, the known publicly disclosed members of the R organization include: Ge Ke, Bai Li Shouyue, Jie Feng, Rui Na, Sage, and Silver Wing."

"Suspected members include: Raven, Said, Demulan, and Geheros."

"They have publicly controlled the Zero Dam and Bakshi, and we speculate that Reis may have some kind of tacit understanding with them."

"If Demulan and Gherros really join, then the space base and the tidal prison will also..."

"So, in other words, the entire western part of Asara has actually been swallowed up by this organization?"

"In terms of sphere of influence, yes."

Walker turned around, a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

"So, what should our attitude be towards the R organization...?"

"Most people's opinion is to continue to wait and see." The adjutant closed the folder.

"After all, the R organization has not launched any offensives against GTI-controlled areas, and their attitude towards civilians is relatively mild."

"Some people advocate for proactive contact, and even proposed incorporating the R organization into the GTI system."

"Include?" Walker scoffed.

"Those old guys really dare to dream."

"How could an organization that could poach Demulan and Gherros be willing to become someone else's vassal?"

He walked back to his desk and sat down, his fingers interlaced on the surface.

"However, on the other hand, the R organization did not target GTI. The space base and Deep Blue even assisted them."

"Yes, sir, that's the opinion of most people as well."

Walker pondered for a moment and then made a decision.

"Hasn't Jacob been wanting to talk to us?"

"He has indeed expressed his desire to restart dialogue on multiple occasions."

"Then let's make arrangements. I want to talk to him in person."

Walker leaned back in his chair.

"Tell him that GTI can continue to work with him in some areas, but he will have to pay a price."

"Clear up what happened before and provide compensation!"

"clear."

The adjutant turned and left.

The office door slammed shut behind me with a dull thud.

Walker picked up the report again, his gaze lingering on the deep blue name for a long time.

This Deep Blue is an operator he personally promoted.

Reliable, loyal, and never questioning orders.

But this time, he had a vague feeling that something was wrong!

Walker muttered to himself,

"Deep Blue, oh Deep Blue... don't let me down."

He tossed the report back onto the table, turned his gaze to the window, where the last rays of twilight were fading on the horizon.

......

Meanwhile, at the Zadeh base's canteen, another lively scene was unfolding.

Two long tables were joined together, and everyone sat around them.

Deep Blue, Red Wolf, Dragon, Uluru, Luna, Bee Doctor, Hazma, Gu, Flint, Bit, Butterfly, Echo, Liquid Nitrogen, Nameless, Zhang Zhao—including Flint, the entire Zhade City branch was present.

The table was laden with all sorts of dishes.

The roasted lamb leg that Zhang Zhao brought from Dam Zero using his Shadow special equipment was still sizzling with oil.

Uluru tore off a large piece of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth, mumbling indistinctly,

"This is the life a human being should live! Isn't it better than those boring meetings at GTI headquarters?"

"Keep your voice down!" Dr. Bee chuckled, reminding him, "We're still 'GTI Operators' for now."

"What are you afraid of? It's just us in this base; we can't all be eavesdropping, can we?"

Uluru's mouth was stuffed full.

"Besides, we're doing undercover work now, so isn't this just me playing myself?"

Everyone laughed upon hearing this.

Flint sat at the back of the long table. Although his face was still a little pale, he was in much better spirits.

"I didn't expect that after a trip to the space base, everyone's opinion would change."

"Aren't you the same?" Zhang Zhao chimed in.

Flint smiled, a smile tinged with relief.

"You saved my life, and everyone else has joined in, so I definitely can't hold them back."

Shen Lan sat at the head of the table, looking at the familiar faces on it.

"Since we all share the same goal, then it's settled."

"On the surface, we are still the GTI Zadeh City branch."

"Normal training, normal mission execution, and everything that can be made public should remain unchanged."

"Secretly, we are an undercover agent planted by the R organization within GTI."

Red Wolf added,

"Collect the shady dealings of GTI's top management, especially those concerning Walker—he'll have to pay for what he did."

The mention of Walker's name sharpened Red Wolf's gaze involuntarily.

Uluru put down the lamb leg in his hand and, unusually, did not respond.

Wei Long picked up the conversation,

"Our goal is to restore the GTI to its rightful place, not to destroy it."

"That's right." Deep Blue nodded.

"Therefore, the next operation must proceed without being exposed. You will be in charge of Gu's communications and intelligence."

Gu nodded slightly. "No problem."

"HaClaw, you and Gu are partners. Ensure the absolute security of our internal encrypted channels."

Hazha put down the game console and nodded in agreement.

Zhang Zhao sat at the end of the table, watching this scene unfold.

The R organization started with him, Demulan, and the Nameless, and has gradually grown to its current size.

To be honest, he himself sometimes finds it a bit unbelievable.
