"What do you think of Garson?" asked White Wolf.

"He's a real Sarkaz mercenary, and a very smart man." Tallulah frowned. "I've had several small-scale collaborations with him. His methods are completely mercenary-like, clean, efficient and cruel. If he were to act alone, he would definitely not consider whether he would harm civilians. General Patriot and others would probably not be used to this way of doing things. I even think that it might be a good thing to prevent the two organizations from contacting each other, otherwise there would definitely be many conflicts."

"According to what you said, the Sarkaz mercenaries are like a time bomb. What if they let loose and hurt civilians? What if things go wrong?"

"I don't think so. As long as we don't abuse this power and control the actions of the mercenaries within a certain range during planning, for example, only allowing them to carry out specific tasks."

"That makes sense." White Wolf nodded thoughtfully, "Although we have to pay a lot of food and supplies, it seems that having an extra thug who can be used in emergencies is not bad."

Even if he couldn't win over the mercenaries and take advantage of Tracys, it would be a proud thing to be able to fight this well-known conspirator to a draw.

Speaking of which, Tracy was against Babel back then. Although we don’t know what happened in the middle, Tracy was the final winner, so he certainly cannot be underestimated.

Um, who was at the Tower of Babel?

Kelsey.

Theresia.

Bai Lang first thought of these two names, and she couldn't help but shiver.

One is Kal'tsit, whom she cannot see through at all, and the other is Theresa, the ghost of the Rhodes Island Library, who is suspected to be the doctor's real body.

She suddenly thought, how could she think that she could easily tie with Tracys? The other party had fought with Babel and the two mentioned above.

Is there a conspiracy here?

She pricked up her ears in alarm, behaving like a paranoid patient.

"Tallulah, did your trip to Kazdel go smoothly?"

"It's pretty good. Although it took a lot of effort in the early stages, it was handled easily when we discussed cooperation. What's wrong?"

"Something's wrong. I don't think it should be this smooth."

Tallulah opened her eyes in confusion: "You forgot that this is a mutually beneficial thing. Kazdel has been threatened by Ursus. Tracys certainly hopes that the Integration Movement can attract the attention of the military within Ursus. Isn't it natural that the cooperation will go smoothly?"

Volume 4: Chapter 20 Plan

Tallulah's words brought White Wolf back to his logical state.

The plan was fundamentally based on Tracy's perspective, so it would be abnormal if we didn't get such a result.

But why do I always feel uncomfortable?

Was he too nervous? Was he nervous because he was facing Tracy?

White Wolf, White Wolf, you have to believe in yourself. If Babel hadn't taken the ordinary people of Kazdel into consideration, how could Tracys have easily won the civil war?

He is just a despicable person who took advantage of other people's nobility.

That's right, she thought to herself. After winning, Tracys used mercenaries to consolidate his position. Now he has found an opportunity to use the integration movement to attract Ursus' attention, so that he can develop...

This man has only been engaged in conspiracy and exploitation along the way. Of course, his cooperation with the Reunion Movement this time will be a natural outcome, but then again, who can guarantee that the Reunion Movement will honestly do what he wants?

She let out a long sigh of relief and was about to tell a few jokes to liven up the atmosphere, but a thought suddenly popped into her mind, her pupils suddenly shrank, and her face became stiff.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" The dragon girl looked concerned.

"Tallulah, have you ever thought that perhaps the Integration Movement cannot effectively attract Ursus' attention?"

"It's definitely not possible in a short period of time. We also need time to develop."

"What if Tracy doesn't want to wait?"

"What do you mean?"

"When he finds out that his goal has not been achieved, will he try to find a way to achieve it?" White Wolf paused and said in a deep voice, "For example, ordering Garson's team to attack the city in the name of the Integration Movement."

Talulah immediately understood what White Wolf meant. If something like that really happened, the Integration Movement would instantly become Ursus' number one target, and Tracy's goal would naturally be achieved.

However, Tracy must also know that the current integration movement is too weak, and using such extreme means is tantamount to draining the pond to catch fish, so White Wolf’s vision is unlikely to happen.

However, she could not gamble. She was the leader elected by everyone, and she could not let the fate of the organization depend on the whims of others.

Why, why didn't I think of this before? Was I blinded by the growing strength of the organization and the smooth sailing of things?

What she borrowed was not a helper, but clearly a sharp blade hanging high above her head.

At this time, the White Wolf had already jumped off the bed and was walking back and forth in the room:

"Fortunately, the current situation is not urgent. Ursus poses no threat to Kazdel for the time being. Therefore, Tracys will most likely not let Garson give such an order. However, the problem must be solved. We cannot hand over the initiative of life and death to others."

Tallulah nodded. This was exactly what she was thinking.

White Wolf continued, "Let me confirm again, we can't control this group of mercenaries, right?"

"That's right. We don't even know the exact number of mercenaries. Garson deliberately keeps this information secret."

"Garnson, Garson, all the troubles are caused by this man..." White Wolf suddenly stopped, her eyelids drooped, her eyes like an unbottomable abyss, she looked at Tallulah without saying a word.

"This is the worst plan." The dragon girl frowned and shook her head gently. "I said before that Garson is a smart man. The way he organizes his team is unusual. If he dies suddenly, the mercenary group will be in complete chaos because of the loss of their leader. This may directly attract the attention of the Ursus officials. For the sake of stability, we even have to protect his safety. I think the current feasible plan is to monitor Garson. The snowy plains in winter are not conducive to the team's hiding. We are confident that we can find any abnormalities before the mercenary team makes any unusual movements."

This Garson is really like an annoying sticky candy, White Wolf thought. She also knew the consequences of a large number of dangerous Sarkaz mercenaries getting into chaos. Who knows what those lawless guys will do.

Therefore, Tallulah's idea is most suitable for the current situation and can at least provide an extra layer of protection. The decapitation plan is indeed not very clever and requires long-term consideration.

After figuring this out, she sat down on the stool and said, "I've finished my work with Alina. I'll go to the mercenary camp with you in a few days to see if we can find any breakthroughs. By the way, does Garson mind having one more person?"

"No problem. He's not that alert yet, but you need to have a suitable identity."

"It's fine as long as I can go. I can think about my identity later."

As they were talking, the sky outside gradually darkened, and Talulah got up to light the lamp.

"Have you been using the oil lamp?" White Wolf asked, looking up.

There is a generator in the camp, so everyone should not be concerned about lighting issues.

"My location is too remote, the northernmost, so I don't have those equipment. Actually, oil lamps are also quite useful."

Tallulah stood by the wall and answered White Wolf. She rubbed a flame on her fingertips, put it into the lampshade, and lit the lamp on the wall.

She had just returned to the table and sat down when the door was suddenly pushed open and Alina appeared at the door.

"So it's you who's back. I was wondering why I couldn't find the White Wolf." Miss Elafia said in surprise and joy, "Quick, quick, turn off the lights and come to my place. There will be delicious food today."

The White Wolf stood up actively, ran to the wall, and ruthlessly turned off the lamp that Tallulah had just lit.

Several people left their original place and went to Alina's house to start their long-awaited dinner.

This kind of dinner happened almost every day a few months ago, but now it is no longer possible. As the integration movement grows stronger and stronger, there will be more and more affairs, and the time for several people to get together will probably become few and far between.

At the dinner table, Tallulah talked about her plan while eating: "I will stay in the camp tomorrow to prepare for the cadre meeting in the afternoon, and I will take White Wolf to the mercenary camp the day after tomorrow."

"Are you going too?" Alina turned her head and looked at the White Wolf.

"Well, the matter with the mercenaries is a bit troublesome. I plan to go over and take a look, and by the way, help Xiaota think of a solution."

Tallulah coughed.

White Wolf ignored her and continued to say to Alina: "Don't worry about what's going on over there. With Xiaota and I here, we will definitely solve it smoothly."

This time she deliberately emphasized the word "small tower". Seeing this, Miss Longnu had no choice but to swallow her anger and continue eating, not daring to refute at all.

Alina saw the mystery and chuckled secretly in her heart. Based on her understanding of Tallulah, she was definitely being taken advantage of by Miss White Wolf, and Miss White Wolf just happened to be mischievous in her personality, so it was normal for such a thing to happen.

She looked at the two people at the dinner table with a smile, inexplicably hoping that time could freeze at this moment.

Volume 4: Chapter 21 New Station

The next afternoon, when he arrived at the venue, Bai Lang realized that this meeting was actually a special meeting on logistics, and the participants were all cadres related to it.

In the meeting room in the center of the camp, a group of people sat at both ends of a three-meter-long desk. On the left were Bozhucasti, Big Bob, and Mudrock; on the right were Alina and White Wolf; and in the middle was Tallulah.

Before the meeting, White Wolf learned from Alina that Miss Mudstone was not only responsible for leading the team in combat, but also helped Big Bob take charge of some of the logistics work.

She thought happily: Big Bob shared Alina's logistical tasks, and Mudrock shared Big Bob's logistical tasks, and she didn't know whether this chain would continue.

Once everyone was ready, Alina stood up and announced the start of the meeting.

White Wolf thought that the host of this meeting would be Tallulah, but he didn't expect it to be Miss Elafia.

Alina first reported on the development of the integration movement during this period, and then began to raise trivial issues that needed to be resolved.

This is how logistics work. There are so many details to consider, such as food distribution, power supply arrangements, procurement matters, material repairs, etc., all of which need to be discussed one by one.

White Wolf noticed that when Tallulah listened to these troubles, her expression was first surprised, then dull, and finally dazed, sitting in the middle like a wooden man.

Among the other participants, Patriot remained silent, Mudrock said nothing, and Big Bob was the undisputed best player of the show. He used his quick thinking to come up with solutions to most of the problems on the spot. As for the remaining issues, he said he would discuss them with Alina later.

After finishing the details, Alina breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Tallulah and said, "I'm done, Chief."

Tallulah nodded slightly, the wooden expression on her face disappeared. She crossed her fingers in front of her, looked around at everyone solemnly and calmly, and then slowly spoke:

"Everyone, the development of the Integration Movement is obvious to all. More and more infected compatriots have joined the Integration Movement. As Alina just said, when the winter in the north is over, the development of the organization will reach another peak."

"But now, our camp has begun to become stretched and it is difficult to accommodate more people, so I plan to expand the second base. The last topic today is, where should the new base be set up?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Alina cooperated and took out a map and spread it out in the middle of the table.

"I've thought about this, too. We don't have enough space." Big Bob said, rubbing his head. "There are actually quite a few small camps in the tundra. If we develop them carefully, they can be used. But most of those places are not safe enough."

"One, does it have to be in the tundra?" A soft voice came. White Wolf looked up and saw that it was Miss Mudstone who was speaking. The other party's majestic attire and soft accent were a wonderful match.

"Not necessarily." Tallulah shook her head and said apologetically, "You have worked so hard during this period. The new members who joined recently are basically from the south of the tundra, just like your team. It is difficult for them to adapt to the climate here. You can give priority to choosing a base in the south of the tundra."

"It's okay. Everyone in the team lives well and adapts quickly." Mudstone said softly, "I don't know much about site selection. You guys can make the decision."

"How's the seaside?" Big Bob pointed to the northeastern coast of Ursus on the map. "Although this place is also in the north, it's much warmer than here. The key is that it's relatively remote and unlikely to attract the attention of the military, so the safety factor is higher."

"No." The Patriot suddenly said, "Northeast coast, thirty years ago, the Internal Guard was secretly stationed."

"This..." Big Bob was dumbfounded. "What about the western border? This place seems pretty good too."

The patriot spoke again slowly: "Forty-six years ago, Ursus, Casimir, war, there were garrisons."

The planning of the new base slowed down. The Patriots did not proactively offer any opinions, but just calmly vetoed inappropriate areas. Finally, White Wolf and the others discovered something strange.

The seemingly remote places are basically related to the garrisons, and no one can figure out how many troops the Ursus Empire has invested in the border.

On the contrary, many areas within the country are completely undeveloped, and most of them can be considered as settlements. Judging from the information on the map, the combined area of ​​the undeveloped areas in Ursus is as large as half of Casimir.

White Wolf also expressed her own opinion. She was not familiar with the various regions of Ursus, and only recognized the railway that ran through the north and south from Winterfell to Chernobyl, and insisted that the new station should be closer to the railway line.

After Tallulah summarized the ideas of the participants, she handed the matter over to Alina, who considered how to send a specialist to conduct a field investigation. The meeting ended there.

Later, White Wolf heard that the King Slayer took Ethan and the Ghost Squad to carry out this mission. Her fellow tribesman had special abilities, so he was always sent on long missions and was often not in the camp.

The next morning, before daybreak, Tallulah knocked on White Wolf's door, and then led Miss White Wolf, who was refreshed from the cold as soon as she woke up, to the base of the Sarkaz mercenaries.

The wind was particularly strong today, so Tallulah asked the white wolf to follow her, giving him instructions as they walked.

"Garson's rules for the mercenaries are extremely strict. They must get up at dawn to train and rest very early after dark. Although we have no restrictions, it is best to follow this time as well to avoid arousing his suspicion."

"His idea is good. This management model should be able to eliminate many minor internal conflicts. What is the actual effect?" asked White Wolf.

"The results are pretty good. I think this has a lot to do with the cold environment in the canyon and the lack of electricity."

"We didn't send the generator?"

"Garson refused. The mercenaries don't really care about electricity. Their living conditions in Kazdel were already very poor. The North is nothing special except that it's a little colder."

"Okay, so how do we plan our schedule?"

"Stay the same as before and stay for three days. Garson will definitely keep an eye on me. Find a chance to investigate. I don't know if he will specifically target you. Anyway, be careful."

"Well, I remember you said you needed a legitimate identity. Are you afraid that Garson would get suspicious?"

"That's right." Tallulah suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at White Wolf with a twinkling gaze. "He knows that I'm the leader of the Reunion Movement. How about you put up with it and be a servant for a while?"

"No problem, where do I live?"

Tallulah turned her head and stepped forward: "I have arranged everything. Let's go to the mercenary camp first."

"Yeah." The white wolf wrapped his clothes tightly, followed the dragon girl, and continued to trek in the biting cold wind.

Volume 4: Chapter 22 Mercenary Camp

The valley where the Sarkaz mercenaries are located is so large that it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a tundra basin. Looking down from a high place, one can only see a dense cedar forest. Careful observation is required to discover that there are many people living in it.

White Wolf followed Tallulah and carefully advanced into the valley along the steep mountain road. The road was not only steep, but the snow covering the road was hard and slippery. She had no doubt that she would fall if she was not careful.
