In a room at a base.

A middle-aged man with half-white hair slowly put a strangely shaped phone in his hand on the table, his fingers lightly tapping on the tabletop, without the slightest expression on his face.

"Five half-step 5th order, killed three people within twenty minutes by a person of the same level, and escaped two people...... Is it another Guo Fuqiang?"

"It's about the same as Guo Fuqiang...... is much younger than Guo Fuqiang, and he is a genius. An old voice came from the mouth of a little Lori on the couch next to her, "Do we need to send someone to contact him?" ”

"Hmm...... Send someone to warn you, this young genius is very arrogant, but one or two is not of much help to mankind...... Our plan is the key to saving humanity, and we must not let him stand in the way of our plans. ”

The middle-aged man looked at the little Lori on the sofa, his face was a little weird: "I said Lao Qin, can you change your appearance? It's a person who is over a hundred years old, and he looks really awkward with the face of a teenage girl all day long!"

"Do I need you to take care of it?" Qin Qin sneered and slammed back unceremoniously.

Don't look at her appearance as a Lori, in terms of age, she is older than this middle-aged man!

After a pause, Qin Qin continued to ask: "What if that little guy doesn't know much about it, do you want to forcibly bring him over? His ability belongs to the enhancement system, and his ambition should not be as big as Guo Fuqiang, you can try to absorb it, right?"

The middle-aged man lowered his head and thought for a moment, then replied, "Absorb ...... Forget it, it's better not to take this risk. As for him not listening to us...... It doesn't matter, they'll clean him up. ”

"Top combat power in the early stage of the 5th Order...... It should be able to cause some damage to those guys, and it can be regarded as a contribution to humanity. ”

Qin Qin sighed a little helplessly, and looked at the middle-aged man with a slightly complicated look in his eyes, "The half-step 5th order in his twenties still broke through naturally, and now there are too few people with this kind of talent." It's a bit of a pity to only change a few half-step 5th order, or 5th order early stage enemies, right?"

She thought of the commander of Base 1 decades ago, that kid was also quite talented, and the ability was definitely a huge help to their organization. If that guy could have been absorbed into the organization at the beginning, their development speed would definitely be several times faster than now!

It's a pity, it's a pity that they are still a step slower......

By the time their investigation of the man was over, and they had finally decided to contact him, their enemies had already attacked him......

For fear of exposure, they didn't dare to offer much help when the young man was hunted down.

And after the other party came out of the range of the five top bases, he completely disappeared, whether it was them, or those who attacked him, it was not clear where he was now, whether he was still alive or not......

He didn't speak, the middle-aged man looked out the window, his eyes flickering.

Qin Qin got up and walked to the middle-aged man's side, his body was suspended, and his eyes were level with the middle-aged man, "How many years, we old guys, we don't even have a person who feels that he is about to break through the 6th order...... If we don't absorb new people, our strength will only get weaker and weaker, and the enemy will get stronger and stronger......"

Guo Fuqiang...... only sent someone to warn the other party, Gong Yin ...... decades ago We watched for so long, and when we finally decided to absorb the other party, we were attacked by the hostile forces in advance......"

"Now there is another Zhang Dong, whose talent is even stronger than Guo Fuqiang, and even much stronger than our old guys at the beginning! If I give up absorbing him again, I am afraid that I will really not be able to absorb any new blood in the future......

"The drawbacks of all kinds of enhancement potions, we all know very well in our hearts, among the human beings, the people who naturally break through the half-step 5th and 5th order abilities, so far, there are so few that only two people have been found!"

"Do you have to wait? Do you still have to endure it? I'm afraid that if you wait until the end, and if you endure it to the end, there will really be no hope for mankind!"

"Indeed, accumulating the essence and relying on the potion may be able to quickly produce a large number of half-step 5th order or even 5th order abilities among the human race in an instant...... But you should know better than I am, it's consuming the future of humanity!"

"I know what you mean. The middle-aged man sighed and turned his head to look at Qin Qin, "But with our talents, we can't break through the 6th order, can those so-called geniuses do?"

Listening to Qin Qin's tearful words, the expression on the middle-aged man's face did not change in the slightest.

After being silent for a long time, the middle-aged man sighed lightly and shook his head slightly, "No...... Can't take any chances...... We're the only ones left, and if we expose it again, humanity will really be finished...... Careful...... You have to be careful!"

Staring at the middle-aged man for a long time, Qin Qin suddenly shook his head with a wry smile, "Xiao Zhao, the previous leader decided to let you take over this force because he valued your steady character, but what he didn't expect was that it was precisely because of your stability that this force has not only not made the slightest progress for decades, but has been regressing......"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's originally calm expression changed suddenly.

His eyes were bloodshot and he looked at Qin Qin with a smile on his face, "Then you tell me what to do...... When I took over this position from the old leader, I put the future of the entire human race on my shoulders. ”

"I don't allow myself to fail, and I can't fail!"

"Because one wrong step is an abyss for human beings!"

Looking at Zhao Yu's sudden madness, Qin Qin sighed deeply and gently patted the other party's shoulder.

"Don't put all this pressure on your own shoulders, old man. We old guys, we're not dead yet......"

After breathing for a long time, Zhao Yu gradually came to his senses, and his expression gradually regained his calm.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little out of shape. ”

After looking down and thinking for a moment, Zhao Yu said, "Indeed, I am a little too conservative...... In this way, if that little guy can enter the 5th rank before the age of thirty, then we will send someone to contact him and see if we can absorb it into the organization. ”

"But the ugly words are ahead, in order to avoid the organization being exposed, as long as this little guy refuses, then he must be killed, in case the hostile forces find out about us!"

"Well, I know. Qin Qin nodded.

That's the end of the conversation for the two little guys. With a wave of his hand, Zhao Yu walked to the sofa and sat down, picked up a piece of information on the table and looked at it, "Are these the potion experiment reports that lure strange beasts?"

"Well, the latest lab report from over there. Qin Qin nodded, "Judging from the report, the results of the potion have matured, and at present, our limit is to attract alien beasts within a radius of three hundred kilometers and let them go to a fixed location." ”

"Three hundred kilometers ......" Zhao Yu touched his chin, "The range is okay, notify it, speed up the production, within half a year, store enough quantity, and our next plan can be implemented." ”

"By the way, how is the progress of the No. 1 test item and when will the results be available?"

"No. 1 test ......" Qin Qin's face couldn't help but become serious.

"Xiao Zhao, I always feel that if the No. 1 test is successfully studied, I am afraid that it will become another creature that poses a great threat to us humans in addition to alien beasts......"

"Hehe, if it's not strong enough, how can we keep the alien beast out of our door?" Zhao Yu didn't care.

"Don't worry...... Subject 1 has a very poor ability to move, and according to the current calculations, it will take nearly 100 years to completely cover the area of human activity. Century...... As long as we block the alien beast for a hundred years, maybe we humans will be able to give birth to the 6th order! At that time, whether it is the alien beast or the No. 1 test subject, it will not be a problem. ”

Taking a deep breath, Qin Qin suppressed the inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.

"Let's hope so......"

"The research institute said that the research of the No. 1 test product was going well, and if nothing else, the first finished product should have results within half a month. ”

"Where do we need to go to conduct experiments if the results come out?"

Nodding, Zhao Yu said, "Send a half-step 5th order who is not afraid of death to pass through the canyon on the north side of the five top bases and go to the territory of the alien beast to experiment...... As far as you can penetrate, you can go as far as you can. By the way, let him carry a telecommunication device with him to record the situation of test sample No. 1 at any time. ”

"yes, I see. Qin Qin nodded.

"Is there anything else?" Zhao Yu asked.

"Not for the time being. Qin Qin shook his head and said, "Then I'll go and inform the research institute here......"

"Be careful. After explaining, Zhao Yu stopped talking.

Their research institute is not in any of the top five bases, but is hidden in one of the extremely low ranking.

In order to establish this place, which is not inferior to the five top bases, and has not been discovered by anyone, I don't know how many people have spent countless efforts!

After Qin Qin walked out of the room, Zhao Yu sat on the sofa, his whole person was like a sculpture, and he didn't make any movement for a long time.

"One year at most, no...... Maybe less than a year! As long as we endure for a few more months, we will be able to buy a hundred years of development time for mankind!"

"I don't know if what I'm doing now is wrong or right, but Lao Qin is right, if you don't fight again, human beings may only get weaker and weaker, and in the end, you may not even have a chance to fight......"

Guo Fuqiang...... Zhang Dong...... I hope you two can keep a little low profile for a while...... Otherwise, I'll have to give up on you...... In a hundred years, I believe that as long as we manage it well, human beings will definitely appear like you...... No, a genius stronger than you!"
