Due to the tight schedule, the mission briefing was delivered on a water transport aircraft. Shogishi whispered, "The target of this mission is the Shadow Brokers, a hacking group. So Cobain from the technical support team will act with us. Target location: Amsterdam, Netherlands. ”

"What are you doing? tech nerds are also acting with us?" Crazy Horse laughed, "Cobain, this is no joke. Let me ask you the question, have you ever shot a gun?"

"I haven't really shot a gun, except in a computer game. Cobain shrugged.

Lin Rui said, "He may not have fired." However, in this mission, his role is much more important than shooting. IMHO, we can find a mercenary who can shoot anywhere. But you can't just find a character like Cobain. He is the best technical back-up and has proven his worth in many previous missions. If it weren't for him, each of us here would have died several times. So please, give some respect. ”

"Of course, you know, I didn't mean that. I'm just a little worried about him. Crazy Horse shook his head.

"I understand. I will not be on direct combat missions, but I will be your back. Cobain nodded, "Actually, I've always had something to say to you. As you can see, that's what I am. Addicted to all kinds of computer technology, video games, and even dare not kill chickens. But I want to say that I am very grateful to all of you.

Because originally there were almost only two possibilities for a person like me. Either become a criminal or become a government employee. But both options will eventually make me lose my freedom. It was you who allowed me and my team to find a third possibility, and I am very grateful to you. I've never fought with you, but I've been watching you fight. I feel like we have a good interaction with each other, it's like chemistry in the team that makes us better.

I'm essentially a member of the company, so I'm here to support you now and in the future. ”

"Trust me, Cobain. We are equally grateful. Lin Rui nodded. "Actuary, move on to the task. ”

"Our task is to address the shadow agents before they actually release the virus in their hands. "But according to the information we have so far, we will encounter strong resistance." Lucifer's squad from Morningstar Corporation, who have been hired to protect the shadow agents. In addition, there are also people from the Secret Society. All we have to do is to get ahead of the people of the Order, thwart the shadow agents, and take back the supercomputer virus from their hands. ”

"It's the Secret Society again, and you can really meet them anywhere. Sergei shook his head. "Do we have any other information?"

"We don't know much about the hacker group Shadow Agents. But for Lucifer's squad, we know quite well. It is reported that this elite-level action team, which originally belonged to Morningstar, has completed a thorough reorganization last year. There are twenty-six people in all, all of whom are elite mercenaries with first-class skills. The current captain is Foreman, a specialist in infiltration and counter-infiltration of the Navy Special Forces. One of the best squad commanders of the former U.S. Navy SEALs. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.

"Gary Foreman?" Lincoln frowned, "I've heard of him." Nicknamed Easter Egg, an expert in amphibious warfare, he has participated in many covert operations. His squad was once one of the aces of the US Joint Special Operations Command. ”

"Easter eggs?" Sergei frowned, "what the hell is this name?" ”

"Originated from the Easter egg hunt game in the West. Easter eggs always appear in unexpected places, and often with surprises. It means that he is good at hiding and often wins by surprise. "This Foreman is the current leader of Lucifer's team, and he is an out-and-out tricky figure. The other members of Lucifer's team, as well as the Gibbs brothers, and the Spaniard Hound who was originally under Hughes. ”

"Well, this time Joe really found a bunch of ruthless characters. Looks like they really want to revive the Lucifer team. Sergei scoffed.

"These guys are veteran mercenaries, ruthless and efficient. So, we can't underestimate them. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Especially, this time they are hiding in the dark. Not only do we have to find them, but we also have to catch the shadow brokers they are closely guarding. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that computer viruses in the hands of shadow brokers do not leak out. ”

"But how do we know that the computer viruses in their hands are not going to leak out? Maybe by the time we find them, the computer viruses have already been sold. Sergei frowned.

"Probably not, they are very smart, they know the value of this supercomputer virus in their hands, and they also know that the value of exclusive sales will be much higher. Therefore, although they have released the auction information before, they are still waiting to sell at the price. By the end of this month, they won't be able to take out the supercomputer virus. Cobain replied.

"That's right. They are still waiting for the highest price to appear. But we have to hurry. Shogishi nodded.

Lin Rui looked down at his watch, "There are still a few hours before we get to South Africa, and then from South Africa to the Netherlands." We are publicly identified as employees of a company in South Africa. Once in Amsterdam, Crystal's logistics team will arrange a relatively safe hideout for us. So the time we really have to act is actually only 12 days. If we can't solve this problem within another twelve days. Then the shadow broker will sell all the viruses to the highest bidder. The mission will fail completely. ”

"Well, but it doesn't seem like an easy task at all, and the Secret Society is involved. I'm a little worried about whether these twelve days will be enough. Sergei whispered. "After all, we don't know anything about the Shadow Brokers, and we don't know anything about the Secret Society. ”

"That's why Copin will walk with us. Lin Rui nodded, "He thinks that the people of the Secret Society may be their hacker team, those who are called the Seventh Group." Cobain has a certain understanding of them, and having him will help us a lot. ”

Shogishi handed several documents to the team members individually, "Everyone, we have a few hours to try to memorize the main points of these materials. This is the only information we have at the moment. For covert purposes, we had to destroy all the information related to the mission before we arrived in South Africa, so as not to attract unwanted attention. ”
