Chapter 25: Underground Base (Seeking Recommendations and Favorites)
While Bofan was wholeheartedly devoted to strengthening his training, several agile figures quickly jumped and advanced in the mountains and forests of a secret hill hundreds of kilometers away from the eighth base city.
Their bodies are extremely agile, like mountain cats in the mountains, turning and moving quickly on the branches of lush trees.
They soon made their way through the dense forest and came to a steep cliff, then slowly walked to one side of the cliff, found a protruding rock, and gently pressed it down.
"Rumble!"
A loud noise sounded, and then a protruding rock-like boulder at the foot of the steep cliff slowly moved to the side.
Behind the giant stone, a dark entrance appeared, and then several people quickly entered the entrance without hesitation. After they all went in, the giant stone slowly closed again.
In the pitch-black tunnel, there was no light, and when you stretched out your hand, you couldn't see your fingers, but several people were still moving forward at an extremely fast pace, as if they were familiar with the situation here.
At last, after advancing for an unknown number of kilometers, a huge underground base suddenly appeared before several people.
This is a hollowed-out mountain body, and the natural peaks and hills have become the best cover for this underground base.
At this moment, hundreds of giant energy lights are inlaid on the stone wall inside the mountain body, emitting a huge light, illuminating the entire base as if it were daylight.
"Halt, please verify your identity!" Just as a few people in the crowd were marveling at the scale of this underground base, two military-clad men with loaded guns suddenly appeared from behind nearby rocks, their dark gun barrels aimed at the several men who had just entered. Their faces expressionless, they spoke.
"Head of the 9th Intelligence Division under the Staff Headquarters of Base City No. 8, codename Eagle Eye, ID code 370318749, ID details: The Yellow River's waters come from heaven!"
"Staff Officer Shen Ling of the 8th Base City Headquarters, ID code: 370317721, Identity Details: Bai Ri Yi Shan Jin!"
……
"There are two more. Who are they and why didn't you report in detail?" Looking at the two who did not report their identities, the base guard immediately pointed his gun at them and said coldly.
"This is our eighth base city's new development, two fellow countrymen are high-level scientific researchers, their identities have been verified by the general staff department, requesting to bring them into the base for work!" The tall man with the code name Eagle Eye said loudly.
"Sorry, according to the base's regulations, unidentified men attempting to enter the base need to be temporarily detained until their identities are verified and then released. Please cooperate with us!" The sentinel continued expressionlessly, then gestured with his hand, and several military-clad men emerged from the stone structure beside him, holding guns as they walked forward and surrounded the two of them.
"Tang brother, Li brother, don't panic, it's just a temporary detention. We will clarify your identities and prove to the security department that you two are innocent. You will be released immediately!" Eagle Eye said, turning his head to face the two people who were surrounded.
"Don't worry, Zhao, since we've chosen to trust you, this little difficulty won't bother us. Take us away, the two of us won't resist!" One of the two people surrounded said softly to the guard beside him, a somewhat pale-looking man.
The guards quickly escorted the two away, while those who had reported their identities walked briskly into the base.
……
"Tang Hongqiu, 48 years old, a first-level researcher at the Eighth Base City's Weapons Research Base, an expert in optical weapon manufacturing. He originally had an elderly father, a wife and daughter at home. Five years ago, his elderly father suddenly died at home, and his wife and daughter went missing. A month later, their bodies were found in the wilderness outside the city, having died from abuse and suffering severe physical humiliation before death."
"Li Yu, 30 years old, married for three and a half years, second-level researcher of spatial geography at the Eighth Base City, had participated in the research work of the third-level space spirit ring that was just launched by the Eighth Base City. He encountered something similar to Tang Hongqiu. Two years ago, during his working hours, his wife suddenly disappeared overnight, and two months later, she appeared on the Central Road Street out of nowhere. At that time, her body and mind were already crazy, and a month later, his wife died from suicide."
In a spacious and bright conference room, the man codenamed Eagle Eye was standing in front of the light screen, pointing at the information displayed on it, and introducing the situation of the two people to the group of people in front of the conference table.
"Commander, Chief of Staff, after verification, the misfortunes of these two individuals actually originated from the poisonous hand of one person, that is Donald, the son of Tang Na Ge, a member of the 8th Base City Committee. Later, due to their special identities, the base staff began to slowly contact them and drew them into the organization. After nearly two years of observation, they provided confidential research information and technical materials from the 8th Base City to the organization multiple times. After verification, they can completely become core members of the organization!"
After Eagle Eye finished speaking, he looked at the two elderly men in front of the conference table. The first one had a full head of white hair and showed signs of aging.
And another one, although also looking somewhat old, was wearing a crisp military uniform, straightened his back and sat on the chair.
"Lao An, what do you think? Can we bring these two people into the base?" The old man with a head full of white hair turned to ask the military-clad old man beside him.
The old man in military uniform nodded and said softly, "I still believe in Hawk's working ability. Since the General Staff Department has reviewed the information of both of them, and they are both high-tech talents that we urgently need, I think it is possible to approve their entry into the base."
"Hmm, in that case, let's bring them in then!" The white-haired old man said with a nod of agreement after hearing the military-clad old man's opinion.
"Eagle Eye, you didn't come just for this matter, did you? Is there something else you want to say?" The old man in military uniform looked at Eagle Eye again in front of the light screen, with a hint of a smile on his lips, and asked softly.
Eagle Eye nodded, then lightly tapped on the light screen a few times. On the light screen, an image of a girl appeared, with an absolutely beautiful face and a cold expression, causing the people present to reveal surprised expressions.
"Who is this girl? Could she be Hawkeye's daughter or something? What, you're going to let her work at the base already at such a young age?" People familiar with Hawkeye at the conference table burst out laughing.
Eagle Eye gently shook his head and then tapped on the screen again, a row of information about the woman appeared on the screen.
"Bu Yan, 18 years old, a graduating student of the Eighth Base City Base Academy, an S-level ice and fire dual ability genius evolver. During his research at the Eighth Base City Base Academy, all subjects were evaluated as perfect, and within the academy, he was hailed as a new generation king candidate!"
As soon as Eagle Eye's words came out, all the personnel beside the conference table changed their faces greatly. Even the white-haired old man and the military uniformed old man who had been looking at Eagle Eye with a calm gaze also showed a solemn expression on their faces after hearing Eagle Eye's words.
Everyone knows what it means to be a king candidate!
