Chapter 207: Mithril Meeting

Li Boyong rested in the passenger seat, and in his dream, he vaguely dreamed of the battle with the Desert Tiger in the SEED world.

At that time, he was only piloting a Sky Grasper, but he was fighting fiercely with an MS.

Between the hail of bullets of the BuCUE, he piloted the Sky Grasper to make one almost overloaded evasion maneuver after another, and then felt a feeling of almost suffocation.

Breathing is so difficult!

Li Boyong woke up at once and found that he was still in the passenger seat of the armed vehicle, and beside him was Wang Liumei's hateful smile of successful prank: "Yo, did you sleep well?"

"If you didn't wake me up, I would have slept better."

Li Boyong rolled his eyes, and then checked the time. It turned out that he had already slept for seven hours. He remembered that he did ask Wang Liumei to remind him before sleeping.

Li Boyong woke up at once and looked around: "Where is Yufang? Where is the convoy?"

"It's not far from the border of the Democratic Republic of Zhuolang. Yufang is now on standby on the Hell Monarch. After all, if you are not there, only she and Yulan can activate that Lambda Driver."

Wang Liumei explained.

Speaking of this, Li Boyong hoped to get some more Lambda Driver-equipped machines from the organization as soon as possible.

After all, now on his side, barely counting the mentally unstable Zhuomo, there are four people who can use the Lambda Driver.

But there is only one Hell Monarch and Behemoth. The Behemoth is also staying in Nansang City as a town-house cute beast because it is inconvenient to use.

The only one that can be used is a Hell Monarch, which is really a waste of talent.

The convoy continued to drive, Li Boyong took over the command again, but he didn't enter the Hell Monarch again, but chose to stay in the car.

After all, the comfort of the AS cockpit is really much worse than the MS, and his state really didn't want to stay in that kind of place.

"Speaking of which, what are your plans next?"

Feeling bored, Li Boyong chatted with Wang Liumei again.

Now Yulan is responsible for driving the car, and Li Boyong can speak casually.

"There is no specific plan for now, but this country seems to have some small problems recently."

Wang Liumei said.

"So there is a direction, tell me about it." Li Boyong said.

Hearing this, Wang Liumei simply introduced the situation.

"Like other countries, the internal forces of this country are also divided into conservative and radical factions, but unlike Iskostan, the conservatives of this country are more pragmatic and value the people's living standards."

"Instead, the guys in the radical faction are fanatical, and have been vigorously advocating the Middle East Unification Theory, hoping to carry out aggressive wars against the outside world to obtain military exploits to improve their status."

"Many people among the nationals are also bewitched by the radical faction, and there are many people who agree with external aggression."

Li Boyong laughed when he heard this: "It's not surprising, after all, it is the so-called Middle East No. 1 power. Then who came to this meeting, the conservative faction or the radical faction?"

"The Minister of Energy came, belonging to a member of the conservative faction."

Wang Liumei said: "Although he belongs to the conservative faction, he is very far-sighted. Most importantly, he comes from a family of generations of soldiers, his father and brother hold important positions in the army, and he has always been a firm supporter of the conservative faction."

"In that case, the situation doesn't seem to be too bad. It seems that the conservatives also know that if they expand externally, they will instead attract the intervention and sanctions of major powers." Li Boyong said: "Then what to do next? Assassinate those radical guys?"

"I am also a bit headache about this. After all, they are radicals. Too intense means might instead cause the situation to develop in an irreversible direction."

Wang Liumei said:

"So all that talking amounted to nothing?"

Li Boyong smiled faintly.

"Old Li, that's not a very good attitude to have when talking."

Wang Liumei giggled.

"Hey, don't go too far. I'm already helping you do such troublesome and dangerous things."

Li Boyong glared at Wang Liumei.

"Is that so? Then I won't threaten you."

Wang Liumei rolled her eyes, switched to a soft and cute expression, and slightly pulled down her collar. "If you do a good job, it's not impossible to consider giving you some rewards."

Rewards?

What incredibly bold and suggestive words!

Li Boyong found that he actually couldn't quite withstand the temptation of this black-bellied loli, Wang Liumei.

"Ho ho, when you're in heat, do you also show this expression to Shihe?"

Wang Liumei restrained her flirtatiousness slightly and mocked him elegantly.

That slightly disdainful gaze stung Li Boyong, making him feel very uncomfortable.

With her ability to switch expressions so freely, Li Boyong had to admit that this girl's acting skills were much better than his own.

"Why don't you try it and find out?"

Li Boyong let the words slip out.

This damn girl, why has she been teasing him like she's playing with fire lately?

"Do you dare?"

Wang Liumei responded provocatively.

The conversation had become somewhat explicit by this point, and even Wang Liumei herself felt she had gone a bit too far and reined it in.

Li Boyong also stammered to a halt, feigning death by closing his eyes to rest.

Honestly, with his and Wang Liumei's level of sophistication, they shouldn't be having such boring and low-class verbal sparring. Where exactly did things go wrong to produce such an awkward conversation?

At the same time, the top brass of Mithril were holding a remote meeting via holographic projections.

The content of the meeting was naturally about the recent changes in the Middle East and Li Boyong, the mastermind behind it all.

General Amit of the Intelligence Department shared the information collected on Li Boyong for the first time.

"Based on the background we've investigated for this individual, we can clearly conclude that there is a massive organization behind him."

"During the founding of Ankra-stan, this organization provided a considerable amount of help, including arms, intelligence, logistics, and other aspects."

"After Ankra-stan was founded, it likely repaid the organization with a portion of its oil field output. Although the Intelligence Department followed this lead, unfortunately, we gained nothing."

"At the same time, we can basically confirm that Qasim is also a member of this organization, which means Qasim and the Tiger of the Middle East belong to the same organization."

"However, we have also confirmed that the nuclear bomb was likely seized by the Tiger of the Middle East, which means there is internal strife within this mysterious organization."

"Furthermore, he still has deep ties with the Ankra-stan government. The news released earlier about his failure in the political struggle might be false intelligence."

"Although we don't know much about this mysterious organization, the fact that Qasim and the Tiger of the Middle East are engaging in internal strife proves to a certain extent how massive this organization is."

After the Intelligence Department shared the information, the Operations Department commander started his usual bickering: "None of this counts as useful information. Can you find out the intent behind their recent actions?"

"Regrettably, we haven't found that yet."

The Intelligence Department shook their heads and then asked Tessa: "As someone who has had direct contact with this man, can you tell us your judgment of him?"

"Unlike Qasim, the target does not seem like the type of crazy terrorist. He possesses a mix of qualities from both regular military personnel and wandering mercenaries. Based on my judgment, there is no need to worry about him doing the worst-case scenario with the nuclear bomb for now. If there is a channel for communication, I even believe we can resolve the nuclear bomb incident gently through negotiation."

Although she had no affection for the Tiger of the Middle East who dared to use a lewd tone to make her wear a maid outfit, Tessa still stated her judgment impartially.

The discussion continued for a while longer, and the final result of the meeting was to retain the plan to use force against Li Boyong while attempting to find a way to contact him.
