Representative Yang remained outwardly calm, but his mind was racing.

If Liao Xingwei just lets the matter of coordinates slide, how can he take the opportunity to bring Huang Yijie to the league?

His gaze swept over Wenren Yu and Fu Yan, neither of whom were easy to deal with. He seized the opportunity to steer the conversation toward the source of the alliance's information.

He worried that if they continued to focus on the fact that 10G hadn't released its coordinates, the two men would continue to direct their attacks at the Alliance. If they were to dig deeper and uncover something, it would be a case of more harm than good.

After a moment's consideration, Representative Yang spoke up: "In that case, is it alright for District 11 to hand over all the captured research institute personnel to the Alliance for interrogation?"

Wenren Yu turned her head to look at Wenren Lei.

Wenren Lei nodded slightly. The matter they wanted to know had been investigated, and the location of the 66th branch of the Cataclysmic Research Institute had also been determined.

In front of the mole within the research institute, Fu Yan only revealed one purification ability. Later, when he used the lightning and fire rope and the earth shield, everyone in the research institute had already been taken away by Yi Yang and knocked unconscious.

This way, Fu Yan's identity won't be exposed, and it's fine to hand him over to the alliance.

Huang Yijie and the coordinates have already gained the upper hand. If they push Representative Yang any further, who knows what trouble might arise.

Wenren Lei was worried that if she continued to get entangled with Fu Yan and Wen Chi, their affair would be exposed.

This alliance has an ambiguous stance and must be guarded against.

Upon receiving Wenren Lei's response, Wenren Yu said, "Representative Yang, please proceed."

With their own ulterior motives, both sides reached a bizarre reconciliation.

However, just in case, Wenren Lei turned her head and whispered to Fu Yan, "Brother Yan, you and Yi Yang go to the room where the mole is in the research institute and use your sonic abilities to turn them into stupid idiots, just like that little psychic girl before."

This kind of brain damage is irreversible, and even healing abilities can't restore it.

Fu Yan smiled and said, "Okay."

The latter half of the meeting consisted of some trivial, inconsequential conversation.

Each base commander had a lot of work piled up and little time, so the meeting ended.

Such a gathering of bigwigs inevitably includes a free social session before the event ends.

Representative Yang was the first to leave the banquet hall and head straight for the room where the mole from the research institute was being held.

Fu Yan and Yi Yang had just finished dealing with these people and stood at the door like welcoming guests.

Representative Yang entered the room, looked around, then his brow furrowed sharply. He strode back to the door, angrily demanding, "Why have they all become like this?!"

Yi Yang glanced at the group of people babbling in the room, chuckled twice, and said, "Sorry, I didn't control the current well during the interrogation; I might have been electrocuted. I'll go to the base commander when I get back to Sector 11 to accept my punishment!"

Representative Yang said sternly, "To treat an important prisoner like this! Is this what a qualified base combatant should do?"

Fu Yan said calmly, "These researchers came to infiltrate the base. Is their safety more important than the safety of the thousands of survivors at the Cloud Atlas Base?"

"You..." Representative Yang was speechless, let out a cold snort, and turned to leave. "People from civilian bases are just ignorant!"

After saying that, Representative Yang suddenly cried out and jumped up on the spot.

"Hehe." Yi Yang still looked innocent, the crackling electricity in his palm still lingering. "Sorry, sorry, I accidentally shocked you. My superpower has been a bit out of control lately."

Just as Representative Yang was about to lash out, the electric current in Yi Yang's palm suddenly surged: "Oh no, I'm going to lose control!"

Representative Yang held back, let out another cold snort, and turned to leave, but this time, his steps were noticeably faster.

After watching the Alliance members take away all the traitors from the research institute, Fu Yan and Yi Yang returned to the banquet hall.

The Cloud Map Base was about to evacuate along with District 11. Huang Yiyun and Huang Yijie led the residents out of the banquet hall to search for usable belongings in the ruins outside.

The 10G group huddled in the corner of the conference table, eating watermelon, planning to go out and help after they were full.

Before leaving, Liu Bingzheng found Wenren Lei and gave her another scolding.

"You brat, you dare to go head-to-head with the Corpse King? You're getting bolder and bolder!"

Wenren Lei stood in front of the table, one foot on the chair, hands on his hips, munching on a watermelon: "Just tell me, is the Corpse King dead or not?" He picked up a slice of watermelon and handed it to Liu Bingzheng, "Have a taste."

Liu Bingzheng took the watermelon and took a bite: "Wow, it's so sweet."

"Haven't had this in a long time, have you?" Wenren Lei said. "I'll take a few big ones with me when I leave."

"Okay." Liu Bingzheng chuckled for a moment, then turned to Fu Yan, "Did you write the performance report for me?"

Fu Yan nodded, indicating that having Wenren Lei write it would probably not pass censorship.

Liu Bingzheng moved two steps closer to Fu Yan and lowered his voice, saying, "I won't ask too many questions about the details of the mission. I'll just remind you one thing: omit or write down anything unconventional."

Fu Yan looked up at him: "You..."

Liu Bingzheng straightened up and said slowly, "I've been a soldier for decades. Organizing more than a thousand untrained ordinary people to participate in such a large-scale battle, with only one casualty, requires some special methods."

The tension that had just built up in Fu Yan's heart suddenly eased. He had thought that Liu Bingzheng had realized his identity as the Corpse King.

He asked in a low voice, "You mean, this report will be made public throughout the region?"

Liu Bingzheng shook his head: "No, but this mission is special. According to regulations, a copy of the report must be submitted to the Alliance. Representative Yang suffered a setback here, and he will definitely try to get back at you. Your report is a breakthrough point for him."

Fu Yan listened attentively and nodded, saying, "I will definitely pay attention when I write it. Thank you for the reminder."

Wenren Lei scoffed dismissively: "If all else fails, I'll just take out that guy surnamed Yang."

Liu Bingzheng chuckled: "You think you're so capable. Alright, I'm going back to District 1, I have a ton of things to do."

Wenren Lei waved the half-eaten watermelon in her hand: "Bye-bye. Old Han and Old Meng, take a few watermelons and some good tea, and see them off."

Han Mingjie immediately stood at attention: "Yes, sir!"

"You brat," Liu Bingzheng chuckled and cursed, then turned and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Wenren Lei stood behind Fu Yan on tiptoe, resting her chin on Fu Yan's shoulder, watching Liu Bingzheng's back.

"Why does the Alliance always make things difficult for these base commanders? Old Liu is so old, yet he's still braving the heavy snow to travel back and forth. It's really not easy for him."

Fu Yan reached out and ruffled his hair: "These base commanders are all here for the crystal core generator. Look how many people are surrounding your brother."

Wenren Lei, who had only been feeling sentimental for a couple of seconds, withdrew her sympathy for Lao Liu and looked up at Wenren Yu's seat, where he was surrounded by all sorts of people chatting.

Wenren Lei frowned: "Ha, all my heartache for them was for nothing." He grabbed Fu Yan's shoulder and stood on tiptoe even higher, "I thought those people were going to confess to my brother."

Fu Yan said, "If confessing your feelings could get you the crystal core power generation technology, your brother and Huang Yijie could marry a whole carload of base commanders."

Wenren Lei was taken aback and asked, "What about me? Am I capable?"

Fu Yan turned around and asked, "Isn't having me enough?"
