Chapter 582: Grievances should be resolved rather than settled

Under the close supervision of the elite troops of the Barossa Group, Song Lan was taken into a makeshift interrogation room.

The interrogation room was converted from a confessional room, and along the way, he noticed that the elite troops of the Barossa Group had taken over the work of the Church Mutant Defense Force, building a defense line on the perimeter of Antigan to defend against the "Mine" mutants, and that fully automatic artillery and ray rifles were more in line with Song Lan's definition of modern warfare than the strange weapons made of psionic collectors in the hands of the cultists.

And after the war, his perception of the coalition government has also undergone a subtle change.

These legions, formed by "outside" arms dealers, already possessed a military force that was no weaker than the coalition government's regular army, and even the Barossa Group was one step ahead in terms of genetic engineering and exoskeleton armor fusion.

Walking into the interrogation room, the commander of the Third Legion motioned for his men to leave, and the door to the small room was locked.

The slightly dim light in the room made Song Lan's heart tighten, and he couldn't help but think of many scenes that would appear in interrogation and espionage stories.

The commander of the Third Legion stood opposite Song Lan.

The brief silence made the atmosphere in the room a little subtle, and perhaps the Legion Commander realized that there was no chair in the room that could withstand the weight of the exoskeleton-to-armor after entering the door.

Their eyes froze for a moment, and the Legion Commander took off the helmet of the exoskeleton armor, revealing her true appearance.

Short hair, tanned skin, and looks to be around 30 years old.

Her appearance was unexpected by Song Lan, she looked like a well-known model of a coalition government, and Lu Xiang's apartment had a magazine for model interviews, but then for some mysterious reason, the magazine disappeared and has not been found until now.

Ms. Lu said she had never seen the magazine.

I definitely didn't lie down on the sofa directly after Song Lan had dinner, and when I studied the model's life in front of her, I had the idea of pressing his head into the cushion.

Song Lan chose to believe in Lu Xiang.

Because when talking about this matter, Lu Xiang's arm happened to be around his neck affectionately, which made him immediately realize that Comrade Lu Xiang was not the kind of person who was stingy and dared to do something at all.

"What surprised you by how I looked?"

The Legion Commander asked, after taking off the helmet, her voice returned to its original appearance without the interference of mechanical synthesized sounds, and with her keen insight, Song Lan's pensive appearance naturally could not escape her sight.

"You look like a model I know."

Song Lan told the truth, and he admitted that he was indeed very surprised.

Because of the opponent's two-meter-high exoskeleton armor and the iron-blooded and ruthless combat methods on the battlefield, Song Lan's imagination of the Barossa Group commanders is that their muscles have been overinflated under drug injections for a long time, and they can shout "waaaagh" as long as they change the set.

For an iron-blooded and powerful genetic warrior, such a look may not be an advantage.

"I'll just think you're complimenting me...... I'm the Captain of the Grey Knights of the Third Legion of the Barossa Group, and you can call me Three. ”

"The knight is good."

……

Song Lan's unthinking title caused the room to fall into a brief silence.

Some strange emotions arose in the heart of the commander of the Third Army.

This target person called "Song Lan" seems to be a little good at talking, and after a few formal conversations, she actually has a good impression of an ordinary person.

But then, her rich battlefield experience made her suspect that this might be Song Lan's means, and he was most likely a disruptive psychic capable person who could interfere with other people's thinking.

"So, let's cut to the chase, Mr. Song Lan."

When he heard the commander of the Third Army directly report his name, Song Lan's heart inevitably "chuckled".

It's broken.

In terms of camp relations, because they razed the Barossa sub-base, their reputation between them should be above "hostile", and it is even likely that it has reached "hatred".

Now that his identity as a member of the Seventeenth District has been revealed, the other party called him to this small room, probably because he wanted to do something this or that to him.

"You're mistaken, I'm not Song Lan."

Song Lan corrected the other party with righteous words.

"Your 'special' army has captured a border city, and they are using that city as a center to rescue the remnants of the surrounding forces that survived the landing."

The commander of the Third Army ignored Song Lan's rebuttal and calmly recounted the information they had investigated.

Facts speak louder than words, and in the face of ironclad evidence, even the most ingenious people can only bow their heads, and with the resolute style of the Gray Knight Legion, they will never waste their time on pointless disputes.

"The Legion's intelligence network is spread across the Third Neutral Nation, and you are currently the object of our greatest attention."

They investigated a lot of information related to the "swarm", but what puzzled the intelligence department was why Lu Xiang, the leader of the swarm, did not stay at their base camp, but came to Antigang without any personal guards.

"Listen to me, the trade line is actually a misunderstanding."

Seeing that her identity had been recognized, Song Lan had to make a final struggle.

He was trying to figure out how to convince the Third Army Commander that the destruction of their sub-base was actually due to a gas explosion.

"We can help you clear the line, and we can even help you cover your tracks from the coalition government, although they recently announced the failure of the expedition, but left an empty boat to monitor the movement of the battlefield."

The Barossa Group tried to analyze the motives of the swarm's rescue operation.

When a group of mutated creatures that seem to know nothing but devouring their prey and turning entire cities into empty shells like locusts crossing the border, there must be some unknown reason behind it.

After intelligence officers worked around the clock, they finally came to an astonishing conclusion.

The swarm wanted to absorb the remnants of the soldiers into their troops.

Or to put it in a more plain way, they're collecting genetic samples and biomass.

"While you can complete the rescue operation even without our cover, the key is how you move this force in the end, and the coalition government will be watching them at that point."

The Commander of the Third Army deliberately paused for a moment and said, "We can help you divert the attention of the Coalition Government from suspicion of you, or the Seventeenth District." ”

Song Lan never expected that the commander of the Third Army Corps would take the initiative to put forward the concept of "it is better to settle grievances than to settle them".

However, pie does not fall from the sky.

No one would give strategic assistance to an attacker after they have been stolen for no reason.

So, he asks the most critical question, "So, at what cost?" ”

"Our intelligence network also investigated that no matter where Lu Xiang goes, you will be by her side, and the explanation you make on the surface is that you are a couple, but these are just illusions."

The commander of the Third Army said in an affirmative tone.

The leader of the swarm is not bound to someone for such a simple and boring reason.

"The real reason is that you are her equivalent of a counselor in the swarm, and she wants to hear your opinion on many issues."

At this point, the Commander of the Third Legion finally revealed their true purpose, "It means that you are the one who can influence her decision-making. ”
