"What, tired of being at headquarters?" Spier asked with a half-smile.

"It seems we are both the kind of people who are restless. I remember when I was working on the front line, I wished I could stay outside and carry out missions every day. Unlike now, we are locked up in this small place every day."

A look of recollection crossed the minister's face, then he said seriously:

"You guessed right, get ready. The special operations team's personnel structure is complete, and now all that's left is to confirm the identities of the team leaders. Our branch will form a total of five teams to carry out this operation together."

As he spoke, Spiel held up his hand and made a two-pointing gesture.

“Yamada and I each lead two action teams, and as for Kane… since he’s always been so resistant to action, giving him a team slot would be a waste.”

As the minister spoke, a look of disdain flashed across his face.

"Wasn't this operation driven by headquarters? Why is there resistance within the department? Aren't they afraid of being held accountable by their superiors?"

Lin Yuan was somewhat puzzled.

"Hehe, do you think only our branch has people with this kind of thinking? Let me tell you, there are plenty of people like this not only in our branch, but also in headquarters."

Seeing that Lin Yuan still had some doubts, the minister couldn't help but shake his head.

"You said we would launch an operation to crack down on those disruptive organizations and forces that disrupt order."

Regardless of the results, it's conceivable that with the company's large-scale actions, some of the affected forces will launch attacks and counterattacks against us.

Many who have benefited from market expansion and business consolidation are unwilling to take the risk of damaging their past gains. They believe the benefits and losses are disproportionate.

And then there is another group, fewer in number but far more powerful. Faced with this entirely new path to upward mobility…

Spier stopped speaking before he finished. But a look of realization flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.

For an even more important group, this rapid promotion model under wartime operations is not a good thing.

After all, there are only so many high-ranking positions at headquarters. If a large number of people below are quickly promoted to headquarters through the merits of the "Seeing the Sun" operation, it will squeeze out a large portion of power and resources.

These individuals may be few in number, but they all hold high positions and wield power. They can exert significant influence within their departments and even sway the direction of the entire company.

"I attended an online meeting at headquarters a couple of days ago, supposedly because this operation could have a significant impact on the entire interstellar space."

The Business Consolidation Department, for example, brought the matter to the board of directors on the grounds that it would seriously affect the company's existing business, but in the end, the board of directors still passed the action agenda by vote.

It's just a pity....."

Spier shook his head slightly.

"Based on the influence of the cosmic situation and the balance of power among the various factions, the Board of Directors initially only allowed the Sunrise Operation to be piloted in a few areas, and our Tver branch was one of the pilot areas."

So, opportunities are precious, don't waste them!

Spiel remarked with some emotion that this pilot program being awarded to the branch office was an incredible stroke of luck for someone like him with higher aspirations for his career.

"I will certainly not let down the company and the minister who have given me this opportunity."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan immediately sat up straight and expressed his agreement.

"Okay, I'll give you a brief overview of the situation today."

The minister nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this.

"The special operations team will be established at headquarters in two days. Remember to attend. The team leader for each team will be confirmed at the meeting. Don't let your team leader and me down."

As Spils stood up, Lin Yuan followed suit.

"Although our goal is universal peace, we often find opportunities for advancement only in chaos."

The minister patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder, his gaze somewhat meaningful.

......

Two days passed in a flash, and soon the day of the inaugural meeting arrived.

Lin Yuan got up early, dressed, picked up his briefcase, and prepared to attend today's meeting.

Minister Spell's words before the meeting ended that day still echoed in Lin Yuan's ears.

To be honest, Lin Yuan doesn't currently have any grand vision or ideas for universal peace.

But the minister was absolutely right in the second half of his statement. Sometimes, circumstances make heroes, and the current action is indeed a good opportunity for him to become stronger faster.

Therefore, Lin Yuan would not let this opportunity pass, nor would he back down because of anyone's obstruction.

After the meeting ended that day, he continued to go to the training ground for recharging and practice as usual.

After reaching a higher level in his Track Points, he is now able to store more power reserves and unleash them at crucial moments.

As for 'Xuan Yi', Lin Yuan also tried various combat methods in the simulated battle and even found a hammer-striking combat technique in the company's archives.

Lin Yuan copied it to his terminal, intending to practice it frequently even when he was not at headquarters.

The situation is about to change; the time has come.

Lin Yuan naturally had to be fully prepared to meet all possible challenges.

Last night, Lin Yuan even treated Zhou Wei to a meal to express his gratitude for Zhou Wei's previous care.

Although the meal wasn't luxurious, Lin Yuan took the opportunity to deepen his relationship with the other party.

Unfortunately, when Lin Yuan suggested that Zhou Wei participate in the "Operation Sunrise," Zhou Wei was somewhat tempted, but still shook his head.

The other party told Lin Yuan that he knew he was not skilled enough to carry out this operation, which was crucial to the branch.

But in any case, Lin Yuan remembered those who had helped him before.

If he reaches a higher level in the future, he will surely repay these people.

......

Stepping out of the room, Lin Yuan headed to the location sent on his terminal. The map showed that this was the largest lecture hall in the department.

Along the way, he saw many employees rushing around, and quite a few groups gathered together, talking excitedly about something.

From the few words spoken, it's clear that many people know that a major event is about to happen in the department.

The high morale of employees at all levels fueled the anticipation and excitement throughout the department.

Amidst this enthusiastic atmosphere, Lin Yuan boarded the elevator and selected the floor where the meeting was to be held.

As we went through each floor, the elevator gradually filled with employees of all kinds.

The familiar employees exchanged brief greetings, while most others looked each other over and waited quietly.

"Ding"

Soon, we arrived at our destination.

Without much courtesy, the people in the elevator filed out.

Lin Yuan followed the crowd silently, crossing a long corridor.

A spacious meeting space appeared before him.

......

Chapter 38 Captain Selection

As the designated venue for major events held by the branch, the hall in front of us is both solemn and luxurious.

As you enter the gate, there is a tall platform directly opposite you.

The stage was empty at the moment; the leaders who were supposed to sit above and look down on the audience had not yet arrived.

Below the stage were several large areas divided into fan-shaped sections, with employees of different roles assigned to different sections according to their identification markings.

Lin Yuan found his area by following the signs.

After randomly finding a seat on the side, he began to look around at everything.

New attendees continued to pour in from outside, while many faces took their seats inside the sector.

However, compared to the huge venue, the actual seating arrangement in the hall was quite sparse.

Clearly, not many people are qualified to participate in this event.

Lin Yuan's gaze swept around, and he saw some familiar faces.

Before he could make a move, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

Lin Yuan glanced to the side and saw a man and a woman walk up from behind and sit not far to his right in the same row.

"You must be Lin Yuan. I'm Will Richie. Just call me Will."

Upon seeing Lin Yuan's gaze, the young man among them stood up and walked towards him, speaking first.

This was a young man with Western features, striking and handsome.

Beneath her brilliant golden hair are eyes as blue as the sea, and the faint smile on her face gives her a gentle and kind appearance.

"you are?"

Seeing the other person's friendly attitude, Lin Yuan took the initiative to extend his hand and shake hands lightly, his words revealing a sense of inquiry.

"Director Drew told me about you before, and I knew I'd run into you here. From now on, we'll be colleagues in the Special Operations Team, so let's support each other a lot."

Lin Yuan suddenly understood and nodded.

This person should be one of Drew's elite subordinates, and can be considered one of Minister Spear's close associates.

Since that's the case, the more friends the better, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Captain Will, you should keep in touch more often in the future."

"Oh?"

Will's eyes changed slightly after hearing this, and his expression became more eager.

After a friendly and warm exchange, Will took his leave and returned to his seat, while Lin Yuan noticed that the black-haired woman who was with him was staring at him.

After Will returned to his seat, the black-haired woman's cold expression softened, and she asked with some curiosity:

“Will, you just mentioned that this person is someone even Boss Drew thinks highly of. Why didn’t you invite him to join your team? We’re still missing a few core members.”

Should I let him join our team?

Will's face showed a strange expression after hearing this.

"Hehe, you'll find out soon enough."
