Excessive ferocity due to caution

"A senior samurai who infiltrated the bunker to his death was named White Shark."

"He has worked there for many years."

"I once helped many people who were going to their deaths to infiltrate the testing grounds in the east."

"We all respect him."

Zhao Yi was somewhat surprised upon hearing this:

"He infiltrated the experimental bunker?"

Liu Zi nodded.

"I was able to get out of the bunker alive entirely thanks to his help!"

Zhao Yi frowned and said:

"But if he's in the bunker, how will you contact him?"

Liu Zi smiled slightly:

"We have a special way to contact you... Mr. Zhao doesn't need to worry about that."

"Also, we've arranged a time when Brother White Shark will be briefly leaving the bunker on official business. We can go and meet him together!"

"These next few days... don't give yourself away."

Zhao Yi agreed.

...

Leave the city.

Sudi brought an ordinary-looking man to Long's office.

The dragon was inside, reviewing a document.

Hearing the knock on the door, Long raised his head.

Her gaze swept over Sudi for only a moment before settling on the man beside her.

"Xiao Ya?"

The dragon squinted.

"Weren't you at the Eastern Test Site?"

Xiao Ya whispered:

"General... Sixth Master sent me to request [advanced access] to the bunker."

Upon hearing this, the dragon immediately roared in anger:

"Has Liu Zi gone mad?!"

"That kind of place..."

Xiao Ya smiled wryly:

"General, please calm down."

"Sixth Master said... he doesn't have much time left."

"Because I am grateful for the general's guidance, I want to do things for the general before I die."

"It just so happens that we now have a very capable 'helper'."

Long clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with uncertain emotions.

"Zhao Yi?"

Xiao Ya nodded.

"It's him."

"The night before, despite receiving a large amount of incorrect intelligence from us, he still managed to evade the patrolling members at the testing grounds and kill Chen Keke!"

The dragon was somewhat surprised:

"Chen Keke was a level three mutant, how did he kill her?"

Xiaoya replied:

"Sixth Master added a fat-coagulating agent to Chen Keke's coffee beforehand."

Long frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

"This thing was banned from production ten years ago. Where did he get it?"

Xiao Ya scratched her head, her expression somewhat strange:

"Specifically... I'm not quite sure either."

"But it looks like it was brought out from inside the bunker..."

"Perhaps it was given to Sixth Master by Senior White Shark?"

Seeing that Long remained silent, Sudi, who was standing to the side, also advised:

"General...this is a golden opportunity..."

"If we could really get into the bunker and make contact with the First Generation, then perhaps..."

Long said coldly:

"Contact with the First Generation?"

"Do you think those people in Pulse City are just sitting around doing nothing?"

"If it were that easy, then the white shark has been lurking in there for so many years, and we haven't seen him make any substantial progress!"

Both of them could tell that the dragon had a great deal of prejudice against the white shark.

In fact, when the white shark ventured deep into the bunker, the dragon strongly opposed it.

Because the dragon sees no hope.

However, the white shark's stubbornness caused the deaths of many who were about to die.

After he ventured deep into the experimental bunker in the East District, no information about the bunker has emerged over the years, which has made Long even more disappointed in Bai Jiao!

The atmosphere in the room became somewhat somber for a moment.

Xiaoya gritted her teeth and urged again:

"I know the general is cautious, considering not only immediate gains but also the lives of many people..."

"But we were born to die..."

"We brothers and sisters aren't afraid of death, we're just afraid of being mediocre and stagnant!"

"Please grant me authority, General!"

He knelt on the ground, his face resolute.

Long looked deeply at Xiao Ya, his breathing becoming slightly rapid.

"The permissions... are no longer in my hands."

Xiao Ya was startled:

"What?!"

Dragon Path:

"Not long ago, I granted access to a friend in Pulse City."

Sudi, standing to the side, glanced at him.

"General... are you referring to the letter that Wang Chui and his men have?"

The dragon nodded:

"That's right."

"Wang Chui betrayed us a long time ago, and we can't even deliver this letter to Pulse City... but Wang Chui can."

Upon hearing this, Sudi and his companion felt even greater awe towards the imposing middle-aged man before them.

"No wonder the general never exposed him..."

"This is a counter-strategy!"

"Old ginger is indeed spicier!"

Thinking this to herself, she quickly asked again:

"General..."

"Should we retrieve the letter from Wang Chui?"

The dragon paced back and forth in the room.

The faint shadows on the ground seemed somewhat hesitant.

For a qualified leader, the worst thing to do is gamble.

The dragon was able to build up a large amount of its own power in just a few years precisely because it moved steadily and cautiously...

but now……

He had no choice but to gamble.

Give the permissions to our friends at PulseCity...

Or perhaps the authority would be handed over to the suicide bombers at the Eastern Experimental Field...

Both have potential risks.

After thinking for a long time, Long said to Sudi:

"Sudi, take some men and go after them."

"Due to the previous delay, they shouldn't have arrived in Pulse City yet... You should take some men and quickly block the only road outside Pulse City."

"Then search back from that end."

"I demand to see him alive or dead within three days!"

Sudi nodded and immediately left Long's office to get to work.

The situation is urgent; we must race against time to intercept Wang Chui and his men!

You need that letter and "higher privileges" to enter the bunker!

PS:

I'll write one down first, then I'll go out to buy groceries and cook right away.

After I finish this, I'll write the other chapter.

I aim to write 5000 words today.

The battle must be over before 9 a.m. today!

Also, thank you to [武贪会火铃] for the 500 gifts, [风迹41] for the 105 gifts, Gmg for the 51 gifts, and all the other lovely people for their free gifts, chapter comments, and paragraph comments. Thank you for your company!
