An Ran pounded his fist on the table, "Okay, I think everyone has guessed what I want to say, but there are only two points, let's start with the worst part."

An old man with a kind face narrowed his eyes. He was the current president of Atlantean Academy. As the highest military academy for training executive officers, the management of Atlantean Academy was naturally part of the Countermeasures Bureau.

"I heard that this good thing was done by the deputy director of the scientific research department, Chen Yong, I remember this name." said the old man.

"He's already dead. There's no cure for his death." It was Consultant Zhu who spoke. "He was torn to pieces by the monsters he raised. His body fragments were left in various corners of the underground tunnel."

Li Fei supported her chin with one hand on the armrest and the other hand on her chin. Her sitting posture was the worst among everyone else, sitting crookedly on the chair with a backrest:

"Based on the body tissue found at the scene, the DNA extracted confirmed that it was Chen Yong, and the evidence found was consistent with this betrayer."

"We now have to figure out one question, which is also the most crucial question. What is Chen Yong's motive for betrayal? Why did he choose to do this? Is he actually an alien? Or is there someone else in the Countermeasures Bureau who instructed him to do so? Or is this actually a betrayal of the entire Research Department?" Zhou Bowen crossed his hands, looked at the vacant chair of Minister Wang Feng with a sharp gaze, and quickly expressed his doubts.

"I can answer one of your questions. Chen Yong is not an alien. According to the examination of his remaining body tissues, he is a very healthy male human without any diseases. In the psychological evaluation last year, he did not have any psychological problems."

Li Fei looked at Zhou Bowen and told him in a relatively calm tone.

"Moreover, Chen Yong's betrayal is a personal matter and cannot be implicated in the Research Department. There is currently no evidence to prove this."

"So it sounds like he has suddenly gone insane." Consultant Zhu shrugged. "As a normal executive, he would actually do such a horrific thing. It is a heavy blow to the entire human society, and will gradually become an unknown obstacle to our actions to fight against the alien species."

“This is the last thing we want to see.”

Just then An Ran spoke. He had been expressionless from the beginning. In front of these older Countermeasures Bureau executives, he, the youngest and supposedly a playboy, was the most serious one.

"The damage caused by this incident is very large, but fortunately it did not cause any bad impact. I don't want this matter to be spread. We are all aware of the nature of this matter."

"Who can explain why Minister Wang Feng is absent at this time?" asked the Minister of the Resource Dispatch Department.

"His absence at an inappropriate time is indeed very suspicious. I believe this will make you feel that this matter is full of doubts." Consultant Zhu explained, "But three days ago, before Chen Yong betrayed me, he had already asked for leave from me."

"Ask for leave?" Li Fei was surprised.

"He was on sick leave because he had a serious lung infection, so he told me that he might not be able to attend meetings for the next month."

"Then why don't I know?" An Ran looked at Consultant Zhu with a scrutinizing gaze.

As far as he could remember, Wang Feng and Consultant Zhu had always been sworn enemies, but this time, Consultant Zhu actually spoke up for him, which was rare.

"He doesn't want to disturb you." Consultant Zhu avoided his gaze. "And I also don't think it's necessary. Many times, our decisions don't actually require the opinion of the Research Department."

The following sentence is full of Zhu's discrimination against the research department...

An Ran tapped the table gently. He was thinking and had already noticed that Consultant Zhu felt a little guilty about his question.

He did not say anything more, but sighed.

"If the traitor we have been looking for these months is Chen Yong, I actually hope that the matter will end here, but we cannot lack the necessary vigilance and precautions. Chief Li, I'll leave this matter to you." Mio

"Yeah." Li Fei nodded.

An Ran clapped his hands, his eyes flashing with light.

"Then let's get into the real topic, the list of candidates for the next Hall of Honor 'Black Goat'. I think you can't wait to get to know them.")

Chapter 285 Presbyterian Church (V)

After waiting in silence, the door to the highest conference hall opened, and all eyes pierced through the dim haze and focused on it. Everyone had no expression.

The candidates entered the hall one after another. These outstanding candidates held back their amazement and stood side by side in front of the conference table.

An Ran looked around at the candidates and nodded slightly.

There were ten candidates for the Hall of Fame. Except for Nolu, who was wearing a silver cape, the others were all wearing uniform executive uniforms. Most of them were relatively young. Six of them looked to be under 30 years old. The youngest one looked as green as a high school student who had not yet graduated. The rest were older and well-known veterans who were about to retire.

The candidates all started out as elite executives, except for the green high school student.

They looked at the top leaders around the conference table in turn and nodded slightly to show their respect.

"Let me introduce you, ministers. These are the candidates for the Hall of Honor 'Black Goat'. Don't be fooled by their youth. Some are even younger than me. But it is undeniable that those gathered here are geniuses from all over the world. Of course, there are also several senior veterans with rich experience."

An Ran turned her chair and looked at the ministers.

Polite applause broke out at the table, echoing in the dim and cold hall.

The chair turned back, and An Ran looked at the candidates with a smile. This was the first time he led the selection of the Hall of Fame, so of course he had to appear enthusiastic.

Before introducing the candidates, he rapped on the table:

"I believe you have been invited to the headquarters this time and are fully prepared, but I want to tell you that you were invited to participate in the meeting this time so that the top leaders can have a deeper understanding. Let me introduce you first. The first lady on my left is the chief of the Intelligence Department, a first-class elite, Chief Li Fei."

When introducing herself to the younger generations, Li Fei symbolically raised her right hand to show her presence.

The candidates nodded slightly.

"I'm sure you all already know the first gentleman on my right. He is the second youngest Chief of Operations in FACA's history, and a top-class elite Chief Zhou Bowen."

Zhou Bowen pursed his lips and smiled at everyone.

Suddenly a woman interrupted:

"Who is the youngest Chief of Operations in history?"

The speaker was the woman leading the candidates, Nolu Ann Wilson.

"I think this is not a secret, everyone should know it." An Ran looked at her without getting angry. "Can we continue, Ms. Nolu?"

Nolu pursed her lips and said nothing more.

An Ran tapped the table lightly. In the eyes of others, this top director has always been decisive in doing things, and not only that, but also in the way he speaks.

"In order to save time and end the meeting faster so that our time-starved ministers can leave this boring place as soon as possible, I will introduce them in order. Behind me on the right are the Minister of Logistics, the Minister of Resource Allocation, the Minister of Reserve Academy Management, and the Minister of Finance."

An Ran finished speaking and looked to the left.

"And to my left, I'm sure you're more familiar with Counselor Zhu from the Administrative Palace, the Director of the World Branch Office, the incumbent Dean of Atlan College, and the Director of the Operations Office. Oh, and by the way, one of the two vacant seats is mine, and the other is the Director of the Research Department."

The ministers who were named all raised their heads slightly, smiled one after another, and swept their eyes over all the candidates with a deep scrutiny.

After the introduction, An Ran snapped his fingers, and several chairs appeared in the open space in front of the candidates, eleven in total.

"You are all executives who have passed Zero's assessment and are considered qualified to receive the honor of the hall. Please take a seat." An Ran gestured with his hand.

The ten candidates sat down one by one. The one sitting in the first chair was still Nuolu. She had a trace of An family blood in her veins and was the youngest second-class elite executive among the ten.

Although she is not a top elite, for a woman who is only 23 years old, this is beyond the scope of being described as a genius.

"Oh, by the way, it's time to introduce myself to the ministers. After all, they can't wait any longer." An Ran said.

Nuolu sat upright on the exquisite reclining chair, one hand on the armrest while the other hand was nonchalantly playing with the pass card. Her dark golden eyes were cold and arrogant, as if she didn't take the people in front of her seriously.

An Ran saw the woman's performance. Her cold and arrogant look was really embarrassing. She must be a woman who never admits defeat.

But yes.

Nuo Lu is also a senior executive in the Second District Branch. Her duties as the commander-in-chief's secretary alone are much higher than those of Sister Tang's special service team.

Moreover, his rank is not much different from that of the ministers, slightly lower than that of a quasi-palace executive. In addition, he controls a family, so it is inevitable that he is a little arrogant.

But he somewhat hated this feeling, so he responded by looking back. His light red eyes were faintly visible in the dim light, as if penetrating the soul.

Nuolu was startled and a little dazed.

For some reason, she suddenly felt a palpitation in her heart, as if her heart was being tightly grasped and was about to be crushed at any time.

"The list of all candidates has been sent to the ministers. I will just briefly introduce them." An Ran's tone became noticeably flat.

"First is Nolu Ann Wilson. Although it's a bit disappointing that she was brought up as the finale, the ministers may be most interested in this lady from the Wilson family of the Second District. She serves as the secretary of the Second District Branch Commander-in-Chief and the deputy chief of the Operations Department. She is currently a second-class elite and has been nominated for the level advancement assessment next month. I believe that it won't be long before she becomes the youngest first-class elite."

Countless eyes were focused on Nolu. The ministers were very curious about this young woman who had caused a stir in the Second District, and had also heard about the secret of her bloodline.

After hearing the introduction, the other candidates in the group also looked over curiously. They were surprised that there was such an identity and background among their fellow candidates.

As candidates for the Hall of Fame, although their ranks and abilities are elite, their positions in FACA are not very high.

It's not even close to the level of the commander-in-chief's secretary.

"Director An, you are too modest." Nuo Lu said calmly, "You were once the youngest first-class elite executive officer. Compared with you, I am far inferior."

"That was a thing of the past. The geniuses of the past will be replaced by the geniuses of the future." An Ran told her, "You are the young geniuses, the future of FACA."

"Director An, if I remember correctly, you and I are the same age." Nuo Lu said, "But what you said deliberately drew a line between us. Why can't you be sure that you are the future?"

The woman was somewhat arrogant, but this arrogance was well concealed. Every time she asked questions, she disguised it as humility towards each other.

"Because there is more than one genius, and there is more than one person who carries the future of the Countermeasures Bureau." At this time, Li Fei spoke up, "Director An can be one, and so can you."

"Yes, I am very pleased to see you here. It makes me realize that the hope of mankind is not just a spark of depressing songs." An Ran said calmly, "You are all the strongest walls of mankind. In the future, each of you will be in great demand."

"As an executive officer of FACA, we always keep our mission in mind," said Nolu. "But our mission is not to block alien species like a wall, but a sharp blade. We are born to be a sharp blade to kill all alien species hiding in the world."

It seems that she has not been exposed to such terrible events as Shang... An Ran was slightly moved, and he suddenly understood why this woman was so proud.

In fact, most executives think this way. Executives should take the initiative to find the aliens hiding in human society and kill them all.

But the Shang that appear repeatedly in history are not fictional, they really exist, and these evil god-like existences have determined the limitations of the executive officers' efforts to fight against alien species.

Thinking of the previous family banquet, Bagshas, ​​as Shang, was able to turn two humans into monsters similar to aliens.

At present, it seems that alien species cannot be eradicated, and the emergence of the technology of artificial alien species has made the situation worse and worse.

Nolu Ann Wilson, who has the blood of the An family and may possess unknown powers, has never encountered death, so she is blindly arrogant about her own power. She has encountered super aliens and escaped unscathed without suffering any loss.

An Ran finally nodded, which meant that she agreed with what Nuo Lu said, and then looked at the others. The other candidates looked at each other. They soon realized that they had to take the initiative. Director An would not waste time introducing everyone, so they had to take the initiative to introduce themselves.

They were actually feeling a little disappointed in their hearts, as Director An only introduced the woman named Nuolu. This showed that in the mind of this top director, he was more optimistic about Nuolu.

What did An Ran think of?

"Oh, by the way, Ms. Nolu has inherited a reserved title in District 2, which is very rare. She is also the Countess of the Wilson family."

Chapter 286 Presbyterian Church (VI)

When Nolu's title of Earl was mentioned, no one reacted much. They seemed to have known this for a long time and didn't care.

For an executive, the most glorious thing is the merit of conquering and the Devouring Weapon that is worth showing off. The strength of the family may be able to influence the future, but after becoming an elite executive, every step of the way up can only rely on oneself, and the family can no longer provide significant help.

This is exactly the case with the title of Count Nolu. Perhaps in the Second District, the Wilson family she controls can make waves in the financial industry, but in the headquarters, in the eyes of these elite executives, it seems insignificant.

The candidates occasionally exchanged glances, which were full of praise for each other. Both men and women present had considerable backgrounds. Those who were able to come here were outstanding people who were qualified to win the honor of the hall, but none of them seemed so confident of victory.

The appearance of Nuolu undoubtedly gave them a sense of crisis. The candidates immediately regarded this more outstanding woman as the biggest competitor. They glanced at each other and planned to unite before the competition even started.

An Ran lowered his eyes. After he waited for ten seconds, the second candidate stood up.

He was a tall and thin man with a slightly melancholy look in his eyes. He looked tired and worried all the time and never looked happy.

"Mr. Longma, from the Ninth District, 24 years old, currently serving as the deputy commander of the Wind Demon Group of the Ninth District Branch, a second-class elite." The man spoke slowly.

"You are so modest, Mr. Ryoma. I'm afraid it would be hard to leave an impression if I only told you this part."

An Ran looked at him:

"Our youngest second-class elite executive officer from District 9, Mr. Ryoma, was nominated as a first-class elite not long ago, and his mentor is the Hall Executive Officer 'Ghost General'. When he was twelve years old, Ryoma entered the Executive Officer Reserve Junior Class. At the age of sixteen, he was admitted to the Kobe Supreme Academy with excellent grades. At the age of seventeen, he participated in the first crusade and personally killed fifteen A-class aliens and one S-class alien, which alarmed the Administrative Palace of District 9. At that time, he was only a second-year reserve student."

"For my competitors, this is nothing." Longma Xiaosheng said modestly.

He was right. For other candidates, these achievements were just necessary requirements for being a genius. There was no surprise in his eyes.

Even though his mentor was a temple master.

"Your growth may not be the fastest, but it is definitely the most steady." An Ran's right hand slid across the table and picked up a stack of thin cards.

This is the card that records the candidate's information.

After Ryoma Issei sat down, the third candidate stood up. Compared to the former, this man was stronger and even the executive officer's uniform could not hide the outline of his muscles.

"Dieter Flahn, 26 years old this year, is a first-class elite, works in the operations department of the sixth district branch, and is a special instructor." This introduction was very brief.

The man named Dieter immediately sat back in his chair after giving a brief introduction of a few seconds. His behavior made An Ran blink.

"End?"

"Ah."

"Uh... don't you think you should have something else to say?"

"I don't think that's important." Dieter looked at the top director, "We should give the people behind us some time so that they don't miss out on key information."

An Ran frowned slightly, turned around and glanced at the ministers of each department. The ministers all smiled and shook their heads. They didn't mind such an introduction.

"That's all." An Ran sighed. He actually knew that these introductions were quite unimportant because the ministers had information on the relevant candidates.

Today's introduction session is only to allow the ministers to observe more closely and dig out details in many aspects such as behavior, manner of speaking and words.

In addition to the support of the top leadership of the FACA General Administration, the selection of Hall of Fame requires the temporary formation of a committee specifically for the candidates to observe for up to a month. The requirements for the formation of the committee members are also very strict, with the headquarters sending 3 to 4 elite executives and the rest being local executives.

The main function of the committee is actually to investigate whether the candidates have character, illegal and other related issues.
