Chapter 879: Longyou Shuangzixing (13)

Just at this moment, a sound of dragging footsteps came from the area where Lia was.

Lia looked in the direction the sound came from and discovered that it was actually her superior bringing Hank!

Strange, why would Hank come to the Administration?

"This is Hank. Since our previous trash collection worker was taken away by the Liquidator for investigation for some reason, Hank will be responsible for this work until a new trash collector arrives. Everyone get to know him to avoid any unnecessary trouble here again."

As the superior told everyone this news, Hank's gaze met Lia's. After a brief eye contact, Hank looked away.

Hank's appearance gave Lia a good idea.

After the superior left, Hank also began his work, starting to clean up the shredded documents and the trash left behind by other workers.

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone else in the office was buried in their work, Lia wrote the key information she had seen regarding the Regular Army's movements and the strengthening of security on a slip of paper in extremely small characters.

She tucked it between two discarded data cables, and when Hank came to her side to collect trash, she "accidentally" bumped into Hank's small cart.

"Oops! Sorry, Uncle Hank!"

Lia apologized in a panic, and while helping Hank pick up the fallen trash, she took the opportunity to mix the data cable wrapped around the note into it and stuffed it back into the miscellaneous items at the bottom of the cart.

Hank glanced at Lia and muttered a sentence.

"Be careful."

Then he pushed the cart and continued to collect trash from other locations.

After Hank had finished collecting all the trash and was pushing the cart to dump it, he took out the data cable Lia had mixed into the miscellaneous items and put it into his pocket.

After confirming that there was no one around, Hank checked the note Lia had hidden inside.

"Hiss..."

Hank gasped. If what Lia said on the note was true, then their original plan would very likely fail! After all, the Regular Army was not like the "Grey Dog" troops; they showed no mercy when they struck.

This news was too important! It had to be sent out immediately!

Thinking of this, Hank hurriedly got up and headed to the secret information drop-off point.

Longyou Shuangzixing · Mi-You Star · Liuli City · Top floor "Jingsishi".

Special Envoy Grendel stood before the glass window with his hands behind his back, looking down at the city shrouded by the dome below.

City Lord Huolakesi stood a few steps behind him, his forehead covered in cold sweat, reporting the "unfortunate incident" and "temporary small-scale disturbance" that had occurred in Kafu-Long in a tactful manner.

"……In short, Special Envoy, please rest assured, it is just a small group of incited scum who have lost their minds. General Breken has already personally directed the suppression, and the situation will be under control very soon; it will absolutely not affect the supply of Spirit Ore and Longyou alloy……"

Grendel did not turn back and directly interrupted Huolakesi's words.

"How many Liquidators were lost?"

"…Te…temporarily confirmed… there are two elite members of the Internal Affairs Department… who encountered a despicable sneak attack while executing their task…"

"What about production efficiency?"

Grendel did not say anything about the death of the Liquidators and continued to ask.

"This… because of the localized disturbance and… and the necessary cleanup operations… in the short term… there might be a little fluctuation…"

"Fluctuation."

Grendel repeated the word and turned his head to look at Huolakesi.

"City Lord Huolakesi, the Star Alliance's war machine does not need 'fluctuations'. It needs stable, efficient, and continuous resource input. Those mine dregs are part of the resources. If they cannot fulfill their resource obligations and even start to hinder the output of resources… then wipe them completely off the resource list and replace them with more obedient ones. Understand? Clean it up thoroughly; do not affect production. This is the only thing you need to care about."

"Yes! Yes! Understood! It will definitely be clean and efficient! It will absolutely not affect production!"

Huolakesi promised repeatedly, humble to the extreme.

Just at this moment, an alarm sounded inside Grendel's Jingsishi.

Woo~ woo~ woo~

"What is going on?!"

Huolakesi shouted in horror.

Special Envoy Grendel looked out the window.

He saw a huge burst of fire and thick smoke rising in the distance in the West District of the city.

Immediately following, one explosion and flash of fire after another lit up in different areas.

Especially in the areas near the Energy Distribution Network and the Secondary Elevator Control Node.

The Simulated Skylight System of the Liuli City dome was also interfered with, beginning to flicker on and off!

Huolakesi's cold sweat had completely soaked his luxurious uniform.

He had not only messed up the management of Kafu-Long, but now a large-scale riot had also occurred in Liuli City on Mi-You Star, and it was happening right under the Special Envoy's nose!

"Spe…Special Envoy! This subordinate deserves death! This subordinate never imagined that these scum would dare… dare to also… in Liuli City… please give this subordinate one more chance! I will immediately mobilize all troops and will definitely quell the rebellion at the fastest speed! I will smash all the rioters into ten thousand pieces!"

Special Envoy Grendel looked at Huolakesi again.

"City Lord Huolakesi, your incompetence has already wasted too much of my time and consumed the patience that the Star Alliance could have used in more important places."

Speaking of this, Grendel changed the subject and asked Huolakesi.

"Do you know why the Star Alliance's demand for 'Longyou alloy' and 'Spirit Element Ore' is so urgent that it cannot stop for even a moment?"

Huolakesi shook his head; even if he knew, he could only play dumb at this time.

Grendel was very satisfied with Huolakesi's reaction and began to explain.

"Because in the western star sector that we cannot see, the Fengqi Star Alliance's fleet is fighting simultaneously against the heretics of the Canaan Star Alliance and those mad dogs of the Ash Star Alliance!"

Huolakesi was stunned.

At war with two Star Alliances at the same time?! This was top-level military intelligence! A City Lord of a marginal mining star like him should not know such secrets!

"Every warship's armor, every ship cannon's Energy Core, and every frontline soldier's Power Armor requires a massive amount of Spirit Element Ore! The outcome of the western battlefield is directly related to the future of the Fengqi Star Alliance!"

"And we, City Lord Huolakesi, every gram of ore produced here directly supports the victory on the front line!"

Grendel reached out and tapped Huolakesi's chest with his black-gloved finger.

"Therefore, production must absolutely not stop. Not only must it not stop, it must be faster and more! Clean out those unstable factors and use more severe means to squeeze out the last bit of potential! As long as we can continuously send resources to the front line and ensure victory in the west…"

Grendel paused slightly, patted Huolakesi on the shoulder, and said.

"... Then, all the 'fluctuations' and 'cleanups' that happened here today are worth it.

And you, a City Lord who has persisted in production on the front lines and made 'special contributions' to the war... when the day of victory arrives and the Star Alliance Supreme Council evaluates merits and bestows rewards, could they possibly forget your contributions?"
