Life Dungeon Game

In Kaya City, only the Norlanca Group needs a balanced city defense force.

He Ao would naturally not steal from the armory, as that was another force representing the Nolanca Group.

Regardless of whether those people have the ability to steal from the armory, if it's an internal conflict within the Nolanca Group, the city defense forces will remain absolutely neutral and will not get involved.

In the current situation, the city's defense forces are also in a passive position, as if a previously stable balance has been pushed by an external force and is now swaying uneasily.

In other words, another force intervened?

He Ao placed his hand on the control panel of the CNC machine, and the robotic arm of the welding mech continued to operate.

The city defense army is not an individual, but a force composed of many people.

External forces may have interfered with certain individuals in the city defense force's high command, catching the entire force off guard and drawing them into this conflict.

He Ao climbed the steps one by one, countless thoughts flashing through his mind.

The situation in Kaya City is becoming increasingly complicated.

He needs a breakthrough.

boom--

The moment He Ao stepped onto the last step, a thunderclap resounded in the sky.

A flash of lightning illuminated the gray sky.

He turned to look at the silver-haired old butler, the flashes of sunlight shining through the study window onto his sharply defined face.

"Any news regarding the investigation into the customs declaration records for those special metals?"

"Is this a high-intensity compression battery?"

He looked at the picture of a huge, hexagonal, silver metal object on the monitor and asked softly.

“Yes,” the old butler nodded gently.

"This was yesterday's biggest discovery. A truck driver who works for the group's freight company accepted an order to transport special metals. However, the driver had previously worked at Rockwell's energy plant. He judged from the exposed edges of the device that it might be compressed energy, and then he immediately contacted his supervisor."

The old butler paused for a moment, then said, "His supervisor realized this might be energy smuggling, so after reporting it to the group, he decided to call the police. The battery has been seized, and those who smuggled the battery are being interrogated."

He Ao lowered his head and looked at the photo in his hand. Judging from the people next to him, the battery was not small. It was about 70 centimeters tall and each side was about 1.5 meters long.

This compressed battery is similar to the blue high-energy compressed battery that He Ao used before, except that its charge and power per unit volume are smaller than those of the blue compressed battery.

But it's big.

This is already hundreds of times the size of a blue battery.

These large batteries are not cheap, costing around 15 million Federal Credits. They are typically used to power small airships or large mechs that cannot be equipped with fusion reactors.

If it's on the black market, it can sell for 20 to 30 million.

The energy requirements for this large-scale equipment are very small; only the Federal Army, the City Defense Army, mercenary groups, and some vagrants need it, and of course, some other people need it... those cultists and criminals who thrive on chaos.

Within Kaya City, it seems there's only one faction that can afford this battery but can't buy it through official channels.

The criminal group led by Chaos.

He Ao felt the tangled mess in his mind gradually starting to unravel. He looked at the old butler beside him and asked, "This driver did a good job. Has he been rewarded?"

The old housekeeper smiled when he heard this. "The driver refused the reward, saying that it was thanks to your welfare subsidy that he was able to send his child who couldn't go to school to school. It was what he should do."

“There’s no one who doesn’t want to accept a reward,” He Ao said with a smile and a shake of his head. “He may be grateful, but he still has to give the full reward according to the conditions.”

At this point, He Ao reached out to touch the monitor beside him, preparing to contact Eve. Then, he suddenly remembered something, turned back to the old butler, and said softly, "Tell that driver that he didn't do this just for me, but for our Nolanca Group."

"Our Nolanca Group..."

The old butler pondered the sentence.

In a sense, the fate of everyone who enjoys this welfare measure is tied to that of the Nolanca Group and Vian. ​​Only with the Nolanca Group and Vian can these welfare measures continue to operate, and only then can they guarantee the benefits they have already received.

Danny looked up at the tall, upright young man. At that moment,

The figures of generations of Nolanca family ancestors seemed to overlap with this young man.

He gradually began to understand what He Ao had been doing these past few days.

He Ao dared to break with the board of directors because he found allies who were stronger and more solid than the board. Although these allies were weak and penniless, they were the true majority of the entire group.

This is a force that has been overlooked, but it is a force that cannot be ignored.

At this moment, He Ao had already awakened Eve and was concentrating on communicating with her. The old butler bowed slightly to He Ao's figure and then slowly withdrew.

······

"Yes, we won't simulate those small weapons; we'll prioritize small airships, mechs, and fighter jets."

He Ao looked at the constantly changing data in front of him and spoke slowly.

These data are all customs inspection data obtained from the city defense army. There is nothing wrong with these data, because each data item is normal, and the city defense army has no reason to bring over a fake one.

What Heo needs to do now is to have Eve try to find out the possibilities hidden in these data through simulation calculations.

In fact, Eve was already doing this yesterday.

However, Eve cannot yet be considered a qualified artificial intelligence. Although she possesses enormous computing power, she lacks the ability to think further and can only perform calculations under He's commands.

Therefore, she simulated a large number of possible scenarios where light weapons were smuggled into the city, compared these scenarios with data in the database, and finally used this real data to conduct further simulations.

That night, Eve actually discovered quite a few undetected gun smuggling cases and shared the data with Chief Jerome. However, for Heo, these gun smuggling cases were not what he wanted.

He was just struggling to find a suitable person who could untangle this tangled mess.

But after the old butler brought news of the captured high-energy battery, He Ao had a direction.

Eve quickly simulated and compared the data, but found no data suggesting that large equipment had been smuggled into the city.

"Not smuggling?"

He thought for a moment and suddenly remembered the huge battery.

In theory, the battery should be installed together with the power system, but this time only the battery was seized.

He placed his hand on the tablet and authorized Eve with his electronic signature. "Eve, in the name of the Nolanca Group, apply for access to the public database of the Military-Industrial Consortium Alliance, download the model data of medium and large-sized equipment in the database, then simulate the disassembly of these devices, record the data of the disassembled parts, and then combine it with the data of the city defense army for simulation."

Large equipment cannot be transported in, but that doesn't mean their parts cannot be transported in.

Although most military enterprises would not upload models of their core equipment to military databases, even if they did upload such data, they would manipulate the models to prevent their competitors from copying or using them.

However, in general, these models are similar in shape, and many of their parts are similar to those of real equipment. Based on these three-dimensional models, it is possible to find some similar parts.

As soon as Heo gave the instructions, Eve began to operate at lightning speed.

After waiting quietly for an hour, as the heavy rain outside the window pattered down with ice crystals, Eve finally gave her analysis.

This is a complete analysis report, which lists the data of parts suspected to be large equipment from the data provided by the city defense forces.

Then, several most likely equipment combinations composed of these possible parts were fitted and arranged in order of probability from low to high.

He Ao flipped through the report.

The report mentions airships, fighter jets, mechs, and even some land-based tanks.

One after another, beautifully designed mechanical devices flashed past his eyes.

When he swiped to the last two pages, his gaze paused for a moment.

He looked up at the drizzling rain outside the window. "Eve, see if we can track down the last two suspected parts."

Wherever you walk, you will leave traces.

Under the dark sky, a misty rain shrouded the streets.

An elderly man in a long overcoat walked to the eaves, folded his umbrella, and shook off the raindrops.

Directly opposite the rooftop where he stood, a huge screen affixed to the building was currently broadcasting news about the Dawn City mayoral election.

Starting at midnight today, the mayoral election in Dawn City began. The most popular candidate at present is independent Christos, who has no background and has become the most popular candidate in Dawn City with campaign promises such as medical reform.

The old man frowned slightly as he looked at the man in a suit on TV, who looked so confident and dashing.

Although most of the elderly man's colleagues thought he was just another politician trying to make money through elections, the elderly man actually checked the man's resume and carefully studied his behavior patterns.

If this person were to become the mayor of Dawn City, it wouldn't be a good thing for the conglomerate.

As the old man was watching the screen across the street, the door behind him slowly opened, and a young waiter stepped out, smiling at the old man.

“Sir, Mr. Yalid has been waiting for a long time.”

"Ah."

The old man casually handed his umbrella to the waiter, went into the room, and hung his trench coat and hat on the coat rack next to him.

The house was unusually quiet, with the flickering campfire illuminating the empty space.

This isn't the same tavern as last night, but the campfire seems to be the same.

“Mr. Flock, please have a seat.”

Wearing a silver silk vest over a crisp white shirt, Yalid took a bottle of simply labeled red wine from the wine cabinet, uncorked it, and slowly and carefully poured the wine into a decanter.

"Why did you call me here alone?"

The old man sat calmly on the sofa, watching Yalide holding a decanter.

“Mr. Flock, as I said, I am Jamie’s good friend,” Jared smiled.

"So I learned a lot about you from Jamie, such as how you turned several production lines of the Nolanca Group into profitable ones by relying on efficient management, thus preserving the lifeline of the Nolanca Group. You were a heroic figure. The management system you left behind is still in operation within the Nolanca Group."

Jamie is definitely an idiot.
