Chapter 172: Capital Information

Inside the Spirit Energy Core Meeting Room.

An Jing Tian was somewhat excited, his hands trembling as he looked at Lin An.

Lin Ge...

I want to post information about finding AnXia via the chat channel!

His eye sockets were red, his hands tightly gripping the chair in front of him.

Lin An had previously forbidden anyone from sending messages; he would naturally obey.

Although he didn't know why Lin An hadn't told him, the idea of using the chat channel to find AnXia.

But in his view, Lin An might have simply overlooked this point due to being busy.

As long as I wait for him to return and say this idea, Brother Lin will surely agree.

Lin An calmly looked at the excited An Jing Tian, remaining silent.

He let out a bitter laugh in his heart.

In fact, not only An Jing Tian; he himself had, the moment the global announcement was released, thought of using the channel to post information about finding AnXia.

Compared to An Jing Tian's inability to contain his desire to find AnXia, he was not much different.

Even during this time, he had considered whether to massively capture survivors, then, by providing them with abundant food, force them to continuously send messages in a loop.

Even if it meant the death of thousands, or tens of thousands...

... he would also attract the attention of all Huaxia, helping to find AnXia.

A sigh.

But, he can no longer do that now.

Lin An slowly spoke:

"Jing Tian, if our base hadn't been announced globally and hadn't drawn attention, we could naturally do this."

"But now, the risk of trying to find AnXia by sending messages is truly too great."

"Without thousands of people continuously spamming, it would basically have no significant effect..."

"Lin Ge!"

An Jing Tian looked at him in disbelief; he hadn't expected Lin An to disagree with his idea.

"Don't you want to find AnXia?!"

"She's so young... what if something happens to her out there?!"

A hint of bitterness rose in Lin An's heart; he gestured for An Jing Tian to sit down:

"No, I'm not not wanting to find her."

"The matter of AnXia is the thing I regret most."

"But have you ever considered..."

"We have now been announced globally; it's both a good thing and a bad thing."

"The good thing is that we have gained immense fame, with everyone's attention focused on us."

"But the downside is that for every person who wishes us well, there is another who wishes us ill."

"Once we mobilize the entire base's players to send messages, the suffix will inevitably carry the information of Long'an Base and the Linjiang War Zone."

"Exposing that isn't a problem."

"The base's location will be exposed sooner or later; even if it affects us now, finding AnXia is still worth it."

Before Lin An finished speaking, An Jing Tian stared at him fixedly:

"Lin Ge, so what? So why do you disagree?!"

"AnXia treats you like a real older brother! The earlier we send a message, the greater the hope of finding her!"

Lin An let out a bitter laugh, gesturing for An Jing Tian to calm down.

He knew Jing Tian had been overwhelmed by this matter, but he couldn't be; he must always stay rational.

"Jing Tian..."

"Just as I said before. Now, sending information under the name of Long'an Base would actually harm AnXia."

"Have you considered that we only want to find AnXia because she is our most important person?"

"But how would outsiders view it?"

"They would think we are sparing no expense, loudly searching for AnXia, a 'monster'..."

"Could there be some secret about AnXia? Could holding her hostage threaten us?"

"Once someone gets that idea, AnXia will truly be in danger!"

"She currently lacks rationality; once someone finds her and suffers her attack, how many forces could capture her without harming her?"

"If heavy firepower is used in the process, or even a mistake..."

An Jing Tian panted heavily, speaking urgently:

"Lin Ge, we can just have them provide clues! We'll go look for her! I'll lead the team! I stake my life on it! I will surely bring her back safely!"

Lin An shook his head:

"It's the same problem. If the system hasn't given us the top title."

"Even if we mobilize thousands, they won't pay much attention or have many thoughts."

"But once we add Long'an Base to it, the meaning changes..."

"Every move we make will be magnified manifold, with countless people speculating about our intentions with various motives."

The reasoning is actually quite simple.

Just like the official messages released before the apocalypse, the content of information usually needs repeated review.

This is to prevent someone from misinterpreting, twisting policies, and maliciously spreading false information.

Long'an Base has been pushed into the spotlight; all survivors will pay attention to every message they send.

Although there are theoretical solutions, such as rounding up a batch of survivors to prevent them from joining the base and obtaining information through intermediaries...

But Lin An thought about it for a long time and ultimately gave up on that plan.

"Jing Tian, you don't need to worry about Anxia's Safety."

"When I chased her out that time, her speed was extremely fast."

"Although I don't know why Anxia turned into a mutant with such a huge increase in strength, it's likely related to the injected detox potion."

"At this stage, as long as strategic-level weapons aren't used, nobody should be able to kill her."

"The mutant that Anxia has turned into is so fast that even he feels a bit uneasy."

"At this stage, the strength of the Awakened Ones poses no threat to her."

"Even if the army surrounds her, as long as Anxia wants to escape, there's no problem."

"Most importantly, Lin An also figured out what the meaning of the broadcast permission granted by the Savior Mission is."

"He previously thought the chat channel would take some time to open; the broadcast permission is meant to help him speak out, find Anxia, and attract Awakened Ones to defect."

"But he now vaguely guessed its true purpose..."

"After hearing his words, An Jing Tian sat back down in his chair somewhat dejectedly, not knowing what he was thinking."

"The atmosphere was heavy."

"Lin An saw the situation, pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke:"

""Jing Tian, in one month I will definitely find a way to locate Anxia; you can rest assured on that..."

""Thud! Thud! Thud!"

"Outside the Meeting Room, Zhang Tie rushed in hastily."

"Wen Ya and Mo Ling followed quickly behind."

""Lin Dui!"

""Quickly look at the chat channel!"

""The capital has sent a message!!"

""They also mentioned you, Captain Lin!"

"Lin An heard the voice, his consciousness instantly entered the chat channel."

"He was actually also curious about what attitude the capital would have toward him."
