When Dongfang Zhenghong came looking for him, Wang Jixuan was using a battle puppet to create a new array base.
The commander was stunned when he saw Xing Dian working.
Although Dongfang Zhenghong already knew that this was a puppet controlled by Wang Jixuan, he still felt somewhat uncomfortable and quickly found the Taoist priest's real body in the corner.
Wang Jixuan had no choice but to stop the battle puppet's work, opened his eyes with a smile.
"What's the urgent matter? It actually made you come here in person."
"Don't use honorifics."
Dongfang Zhenghong was not polite either, he sat directly on the sofa next to him, took the warm water brought by Mudan, and said with a smile:
"It's the Commander-in-Chief who has something to ask you, it's not official business, but it's also related to official business, so he asked me to come and ask... please have your liaison agency turn off the recording function."
Wang Jixuan looked at Mudan, who bowed and left with two mechanical maids on duty.
Wang Jixuan wondered, "What exactly is it?"
Not far away, Zheng Shiduo and Wu Man, who had better hearing, and Gao Huating, who was more sensitive to sound, were all subconsciously pricking up their ears at this moment.
Dongfang Zhenghong sighed, and the following words seemed a little difficult to say.
After a half-minute pause, Dongfang Zhenghong said:
"The fact that Xing Dian is controlled by you is still a secret. We want to use Xing Dian for publicity."
"Last time you recorded a twelve-minute video, we widely distributed it on the D2 Comprehensive War Zone network, almost achieving 100% coverage, which gave D2 a lot of pressure."
"However, what we didn't expect was that D2 only protested superficially and made a simple clarification, emphasizing that military control has always been in the hands of the military, which can be regarded as avoiding the question of whether they themselves are controlled by Xing Dian."
"Then, the most ironic part is here, there are sixteen people in their high-level, seven of whom jointly found the Commander-in-Chief in private..."
Wang Jixuan leaned back: "Are the remaining nine people too embarrassed, or are they not controlled?"
"It should be both."
Dongfang Zhenghong said slowly:
"From the power control structure of the D2 Comprehensive War Zone, it can be analyzed that their high-level does have a core interest group. We outsiders don't know the specifics."
"They only have one request, which is to ask Xing Dian to provide the formula for a certain drug."
"Drug, formula?"
Wang Jixuan recalled carefully.
He had previously seen Xing Dian's memories.
Because he was too heinous and psychologically perverted, he didn't dare to look closely.
If ordinary demonic cultivators in the cultivation world knew what Xing Dian had done, they would definitely bow down and worship him!
After a little recollection and searching, Wang Jixuan understood what the so-called [a certain drug] was all about.
That was a special drug developed by the Thirteenth Biological Research Institute. It was addictive, and the formula could be adjusted according to the subtle differences in the composition of different compounds. It caused less damage to the human body, but once addicted, the lack of this drug would produce various 'cravings', causing extreme physical pain, and would gradually lead to death within half a month.
This was originally a byproduct of biological experiments conducted by the Thirteenth Biological Research Institute. Xing Dian used some connections to get it, and it also became his main means of controlling the D2 Comprehensive War Zone.
Wang Jixuan crossed his legs and tapped his fingers on his knees.
Dongfang Zhenghong asked, "Is it difficult to handle?"
"It's not a question of whether it's difficult to handle or not."
Wang Jixuan said with a wry smile:
"This matter cannot be done."
"What is this? A group of corrupted officials are banding together, and they even want to get this formula, and then what? Let them use this method to control other officials?"
Dongfang Zhenghong nodded: "We have also considered this... but the current situation is that if the drug is cut off, they will have problems in a few days."
"Then let them have problems."
Wang Jixuan shrugged: "This matter is not negotiable with me."
Dongfang Zhenghong said: "I'll report this to the Commander-in-Chief?"
"Yes."
Wang Jixuan explained very seriously:
"I can understand that you want to integrate the power of the D2 Comprehensive War Zone."
"But sometimes you still have to pick your partners..."
"Although these people are also victims, they have been helping Xing Dian select materials for decades."
"They obviously had the opportunity to fight back, but they kept retreating because of their own cowardice. I just searched Xing Dian's memory, and the reason why these people were tricked is because they themselves are not clean, indulging in lust, enjoying power, or liking to flatter."
"They are essentially no longer human. They have not fulfilled their own responsibilities. I am already considering the overall situation by not treating them as Xing Dian's accomplices and eliminating them together."
"Then I understand," Dongfang Zhenghong sighed, "Actually, the Commander-in-Chief's intention is also to take this opportunity to transform the D2 Comprehensive War Zone..."
Wang Jixuan raised his hand to signal: "These have nothing to do with me, and I don't want to interfere in the political changes of human civilization. What I care about are two things: eliminating threats and stable development."
"Okay."
Dongfang Zhenghong stood up: "I will go back and report this. This matter is indeed not very good."
"It doesn't matter, this will not affect my evaluation of D5."
After Dongfang Zhenghong left, Wang Jixuan spent some more time reviewing the process of Xing Dian controlling the D2 Comprehensive War Zone.
The Taoist priest also had a clear understanding in his heart.
War zones with smaller numbers like the D2 Comprehensive War Zone are more deeply influenced by the remaining forces of humanity from the Golden Age. In the words of their cultivation world, it means that aristocratic families are rampant and deeply entrenched.
Power is being passed down in some form.
On the other hand, in areas like the D5 Comprehensive War Zone, which were mostly destroyed by Blade Beasts and then gradually reclaimed, equivalent to starting anew, it is more likely to give birth to Fu Jian and allow Fu Jian to have a large number of followers and believers.
Of course, most of the major comprehensive war zones are still good, and they also adhere to the bottom line of protecting humanity and guarding civilization. The three old war zones D1/D2/D3 are the hardest hit areas controlled by Lingneng Capital.
Shaking his head, Wang Jixuan continued to busy himself.
Switching his mind to the battle puppet, the Taoist priest thought of something again and asked Mudan, who had just returned:
"The exclusive spirit slave of No. 5, the girl with the very small voice, seems to be a descendant of a D2 high official, right?"
"Yes, sir."
"Keep an eye on her, don't let her have any chance to contact D2."
"Yes."
The battle puppet continued to work, manufacturing new array bases for drones. With the battle puppet's mana, the power of the drone deployment could also be improved.
His real body still needed to make some preparations before he could swallow the pills to improve his aptitude.
Strive to maximize the window period of the Completion of the Return to Void Realm!
......
Wang Jixuan thought that this matter could be over after he refused.
Unexpectedly, he had only been busy for two days, and was trying to swallow some basic pills, when Dongfang Zhenghong and Zhou Zhengde came together.
The two were here for two things.
Dongfang Zhenghong knew Wang Jixuan's attitude and directly stated his intention:
"On the D2 Comprehensive War Zone side, eleven military high-level, together with their Commander-in-Chief, pleaded with our Commander-in-Chief, wanting the Commander-in-Chief to ask Xing Dian to hand over the formula for the sake of everyone fighting together for many years."
"They made many promises, such as appropriately complying with the will of D5, and so on."
"This matter is definitely unjust."
"But if we can use Xing Dian's formula to do something, for example, produce this drug, give them a continuation of life, and then cultivate a new batch of officers in a gradual way... it's actually not impossible."
Wang Jixuan looked at Dongfang Zhenghong somewhat helplessly: "Does that mean that you also recognize this method?"
"Definitely not, this is a matter of principle."
Dongfang Zhenghong smiled wryly:
"But we can't just watch D2 fall into chaos."
"These people are already going crazy, and they still have a certain number of nuclear bombs in their hands. The Commander-in-Chief's intention is to control the risks and gradually replace them."
"Of course, this matter is entirely up to Wang Laoshi's meaning."
Wang Jixuan lowered his head and thought for a long time.
These things actually had nothing to do with him, but he really didn't want to do such a thing, especially when he saw the ugliness of Xing Dian and those old men.
"Doesn't the Thirteenth Institute have the formula either?"
"This matter was done by Xing Dian. Xing Dian bribed a researcher, and no one knows where that researcher's ashes are now."
Dongfang Zhenghong pointed to the battle puppet standing aside:
"Now they all know that Xing Dian has been captured by us."
"Zhengde, what do you think?"
The Taoist priest suddenly named him, which obviously stunned Zhou Zhengde.
He smiled sheepishly: "I didn't come here for this."
The newest and fastest novel is at Liu Jiu Shu Ba!
"Give your opinion."
"I don't agree with giving them the formula, and I don't agree with us using drug control to directly control the D2 Comprehensive War Zone."
Zhou Zhengde shrugged:
"The reason is very simple, this is not a true military alliance, it's just a political manipulation."
"Before, we attacked their Snow Mountain base, and the attitude of the D2 military high-level was extremely ambiguous, wavering between both sides. If we control them, it's hard to guarantee that they won't repeat this scene."
"Even if we don't discuss these things, and don't care about our beliefs and principles, taking a step back, assuming they die or go crazy because of the lack of drugs, will D2 really collapse?"
"The officers who are not controlled should be the majority, right?"
"These people who are controlled by Xing Dian will naturally form the Xing Dian faction, and the Xing Dian faction will inevitably continue to exclude outsiders, either pulling people into the water or moving people out of the circle."
Dongfang Zhenghong reminded: "There are still a large number of Blade Beast groups around D2, and they are also facing five to six King-level Blade Beasts."
Zhou Zhengde asked back: "Will those half-human mechs piloting terrifying mechs suddenly die because of this matter?"
Dongfang Zhenghong shook his head: "This, I'm not too sure, there might be some."
Zhou Zhengde sighed: "I don't know how much influence they have, that even you and the Commander-in-Chief are willing to do them a favor…"
"It's not about doing them a favor," Dongfang Zhenghong said with a wry smile. "It's just that the Commander-in-Chief has a few comrades, some D2 second-generation cyborgs. You know, the Commander-in-Chief sometimes considers these war-time friendships. After all, they fought side by side."
Wang Jixuan asked, "How long before they have to take the medicine?"
"Two days?"
"Okay, enough time for them to prepare their affairs."
Wang Jixuan curled his lips: "Don't come to me about this matter again. Zhengde is right, D2 won't collapse just because it's missing a group of people in power. Under the immense pressure from the Blade Beasts, their power structure will quickly reorganize."
"Alright… This mission is really difficult," Dongfang Zhenghong shook his head. "It will also affect my image in Teacher Wang's heart."
"That definitely won't happen."
Wang Jixuan took two pills for strengthening the foundation and nourishing the origin, and regulating the breath, and threw them directly into Dongfang Zhenghong's hands.
"You take the red one, and give the white one to Minister Zhou Meiying. Take them and rest well, and they can make you both look ten years younger."
"Thanks," Dongfang Zhenghong said with a smile, holding the precious pills in his hand.
Zhou Zhengde pondered for a few moments: "Shouldn't the pill for my mother be given to me to deliver?"
"Don't interfere in other people's affairs."
Wang Jixuan hooked Zhou Zhengde's neck and dragged him to a corner.
"How's the investigation going?"
"Well, as you said, I sent people to investigate that group of teenagers from the D2 Integrated War Zone who were abducted from outside… Most of them have been silenced."
Zhou Zhengde muttered softly:
"The D2 military controls that area."
"Someone wants to eliminate Xing Dian's influence on D2, or, someone wants to destroy the evidence of their collusion. This is obvious."
"However, I just heard about the D2 higher-ups being controlled by drugs, and the intelligence I couldn't understand before now makes sense… They mobilized a large number of drilling machines, trying to dig through the tunnel into the secret base in the Snow Mountain Base, but because there is radiation inside and too many collapsed areas, there is still no progress."
"Hmm?" Wang Jixuan frowned and asked, "They want to find the medicine?"
"It should be, otherwise it wouldn't be so urgent," Zhou Zhengde clicked his tongue. "The Blade Beast groups near the D2 Integrated War Zone have also begun to show signs of activity."
Wang Jixuan crossed his arms and thought carefully.
Zhou Zhengde reminded: "I just said that most of them were silenced, but our intelligence personnel still gained something."
"They're talking about Yezi?"
"Yes," Zhou Zhengde said, "It's that girl who escaped from our D5. According to the intelligence we extracted, she has gathered a large group of wilderness wanderers, wandering near the edge of the Blade Beast territory, with an unknown purpose. Yezi has also selected a dozen groups of young men and women and sent them to the D3/D4 Integrated War Zone."
Wang Jixuan: …
"Is this really something a teenager could do?"
"I'm afraid not," Zhou Zhengde sighed. "There are too many mysteries surrounding her, and what is certain is that after she escaped from D5, she directly connected with external resources… I suspect it's related to the memory overwrite technology researched in cloning experiments."
Wang Jixuan shook his head: "Continue the investigation and try to find her location. Leave the rest to me to solve."
"Should we remind those fortresses that have been infiltrated by Yezi?"
"Remind them, but use some secretive methods," Two names flashed through Wang Jixuan's mind.
Black Fire Gang BOSS Kong Lianmei;
Six, a spirit cultivator who entered the reincarnation state;
Wang Jixuan was more willing to believe that there was no unprovoked malice in the world, but the facts proved that malice always arises with the human heart.
"Here, take this," Wang Jixuan stuffed a small blue pill into Zhou Zhengde's hand.
Zhou Zhengde asked in confusion: "What's the effect?"
Wang Jixuan chuckled: "Indomitable, vigorous as a dragon and tiger, one pill will give you ten years of bravery…"
Zhou Zhengde swallowed it in one gulp.
"There's also a side effect," Wang Jixuan frowned, "Why did you eat it so quickly? This thing will make you feel hot all over, and you need to release a burst of heat in time."
Zhou Zhengde: …
"Damn it! Why didn't you say so earlier!"
He turned around and ran, his face flushed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Afterwards, Wang Jixuan looked at Old Zheng, who was playing video games with Wan Xiaoqi over there.
It's really strange. Old Zheng has taken two similar pills before and after, so why doesn't Old Zheng have any reaction at all?
This thing about physique is really hard to say.
Daoist Wang shook his head and continued to busy himself with his own affairs.
Half an hour later.
A transport plane left the D2 Integrated War Zone and flew towards D5 at full speed.
Inside the transport plane's cabin, an old cyborg with a height of two and a half meters sat quietly. His silver-white bald head didn't use a wig, and only a pair of eyes were retained as original parts.
An old man sighed beside him: "Vice Commander-in-Chief, you really didn't have to go in person…"
The old cyborg didn't say much.
