dark end

Darkness, utter darkness, no light here.

Suddenly, light appeared somewhere, instantly dispelling the darkness in that area.But there is only a small area of ​​light, and the surrounding area is still dark, which makes people feel very depressed.

In that bright spot, a man in his 30s was standing in it.Meticulous blond hair was neatly combed and shiny, and the expression on his face was cold and serious.Standing there motionless, he looked filled with a strong sense of self-confidence.

But the next moment, the man's face changed slightly, and then he saw nine huge chairs appearing around him, and there was a person sitting on each chair. Everyone was hidden in the darkness, and their faces could not be seen clearly at all.

After these people came out, the man's face became respectful.

"What's the result of this investigation?"

A certain voice sounded, with an irresistible majesty in the voice, like a king, with a posture of looking down on all living beings, everything in front of him is insignificant in his eyes.

"It has been investigated and it is indeed around 20."

Hearing the man's respectful answer, the owner of the voice fell silent, and although the rest of the people did not make a sound, they could hear some slight breathing sounds.Obviously also shocked by this news.

"20? 20!"

The emotion in the tone of the person who spoke before is quite complicated, even the man who has been here all the time cannot judge the specific thoughts of the owner of the voice in a short time.

But one thing is for sure, that is, the owner of the voice must be very surprised, because he, when he got the exact news not long ago, had the same reaction.

"Are you sure? Since the number is 20, why can a small base of those barbarians be able to hold and even completely wipe out those betas?"

This time it was another person who spoke. There are nine people here, and there are corresponding numbers behind the huge chairs made by each of them.There is a '1' behind the person who spoke before, and a '3' behind the person who spoke now. Judging from the numbers, this should have some kind of secret. Of course, not many people know the reason, even if they have been in contact with this place. The blond men among the nine people only knew some of them, and they didn't fully know who these people were.

But one thing we can know is that the nine people hiding in the darkness in front of us are the ones with the highest authority who really control the umbrella.As for the leaders of the umbrellas known to the outside world, they are just puppets.

"Yes, the subordinates can guarantee it with their lives, and they will never be wrong. But after this time, the vitality of the New Soviet's Victoria base was severely damaged, and the garrison troops were almost wiped out."

"That's a bad one! Could it be that the betas that invaded Alaska this time were all tank-level?"

The number represented by the person who spoke was '8', and following his voice, several voices echoed and laughed together.

"Why didn't our Ridwig base go to reinforcements this time?"

Following the opening of '1', the rest of the people immediately shut their mouths. It seems that among these nine people, the person who represents '1' should be the leader of all of them.

"According to the investigation of my subordinates, the news was not delivered in a timely manner at first, and the person in charge of the Ridwig base subjectively believed that this was false information, so they did not allow the troops stationed in the base to go for reinforcements. However... "

"But what?" The voice was very cold, but it seemed that everyone was used to the cold voice of '1' all the time, so it was impossible to judge whether he was angry or not.

"However, there are rumors that the Ridwig base once received an encrypted request for help from a department under our National Defense Research Department. Combined with the fact that the members of the Apollo team belonging to our tactical aircraft development department were at the Victoria base at that time, this call for help The signal should have come from them. However, the Ridwig base did not respond, and did not even pass the news to the headquarters. Instead, one of the lieutenant colonels wanted to spread the news, but was rejected by the person in charge of the base with Disturbing the morale of the army and committing treason were shot dead on the spot."

These remarks seemed to be made after sorting out the matter from an objective point of view, but faintly, the blond man's words contained a disregard for criticizing the Ridwig base.

"You mean, the person in charge of Ridwig Base made a wrong decision this time?"

Facing the rhetorical question of '1', the blond man hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, my subordinates believe that if the Victoria base hadn't miraculously won this time, once the breakthrough there, the whole of Alaska would be destroyed." Exposure to beta. And that's not a good development for our umbrella."

"Oh? According to you, if the news is not confirmed, we should rashly send people to take risks? What if it's a trap for those savage bandits?"

Barbarians, robbers, this is what most people in the umbrella call the new Soviet.But the opening of '3' didn't disturb the blond man, only he shook his head.

"Dear Your Excellency, if it's just a request for help from the New Soviet side, then you really can't act rashly, but since the Apollo team of our special force level also sent the same message, no matter what, Reid There is a big problem with the indifferent attitude of the person in charge of Wisdom Base! And..."

"and?"

"And it is understood that the person in charge of the Ridwig base has serious hatred for the New Soviet side due to some personal reasons."

There are not many words, but it has been implied that this is public revenge, and it is still public revenge regardless of the overall situation!

However, he also understands that the reason why such a person is placed at the base closest to the western border is because it is almost impossible for such a person to be instigated or betrayed.But this time it seems that this arrangement has both advantages and disadvantages, and this time there have been great consequences.

"It's two different things!"

The voice of '3' was suddenly raised. Does this boss have any relationship with the commander of Reedweiss?The blond man flashed a hint of doubt, but he still managed to keep his expression unchanged.

"Okay!" With a cold snort, '3' stopped talking immediately, and then '1' asked again, "Release the satellite image of what happened this time."

"Yes!"

Then in the dark sky, a huge screen appeared. Although the picture was not very clear, as if it was shot from a high altitude, but slowly, a sound of breathing followed...
