Lin Qiao read the first step of Si Kongchen’s plan repeatedly and couldn’t help but grow an intention of killing toward Huaxia people.
They had put a source of zombie virus into Sea City Base. Sea City Base was a large base, and quite some of its residents were working for Huaxia Base. Some were inserted into Sea City Base by Huaxia Base and some chose to work for it. Xiao Yunlong had been making efforts to clean all those moles out, but there were always some that escaped his radar. Every time Sea City Base cleaned up moles, the ones who were still undercover would grow alert and hide more carefully.
What infuriated Lin Qiao was the fact that Huaxia People didn’t care about the lives of the hundreds of thousands of people in Sea City at all. They intended to destroy the entire base and kill every living being in it.
That was exactly like what Earth Dragon Base, Hidden Cloud City Base, and Sky Fire Base did to Hades Base two years ago. Hundreds of thousands of Hades Base people died and only less than twenty thousand survived. Thinking about that, Lin Qiao had a strong hatred growing in her heart.
She wanted very much to kill Si Kongchen immediately! She couldn’t do that though. It seemed that the attack wasn’t planned by him alone. Someone else took part in it as well, and it should be that Professor Bai, who was mentioned earlier.
Si Kongchen and Wei Haichao seemed to be scared of Professor Bai and also vigilant against him. Their attitude aroused Lin Qiao’s curiosity. She couldn’t read Si Kongchen’s mind but could sense Wei Haichao’s thoughts clearly.
They called him ‘professor’, so the man was clearly not an ordinary one.
Lin Qiao read the proposal again and memorized its contents firmly. In the meanwhile, she had been reading Wei Haichao’s mind. She found him feeling impatient every time Professor Bai was mentioned, but he was also afraid of the other.
The reason was that many advanced weapons possessed by Huaxia Base were developed by Professor Bai’s lab. The real advanced weapons that Huaxia Base had weren’t created by the scientists in Si Kongchen’s research base, but by Professor Bai in another secret lab.
How come nothing about Professor Bai was ever heard before? Lin Qiao didn’t know about his existence at all. She wondered if Wu Chengyue and his people knew.
She thought for a moment and then figured that they might not know about the man either. She herself had never heard about the man ever since the old world ended.
Professor Bai had his own secret weapon-producing base. She knew that Si Kongchen had a secret research base of his own but didn’t know that he had been working together with Professor Bai’s lab.
That didn’t sound right. Hadn’t Si Kongchen been intending to work with some foreign bases?
Lin Qiao had no good impression of that so-called Professor Bai. He was obviously a bad guy. After all, the proposal on Si Kongchen’s desk which targeted Sea City Base was his idea. Professor Bai didn’t care about the lives of Sea City People either. He must have a lot in common with Si Kongchen.
“How much longer do we have to wait?” said Wei Haichao, “Those underground creatures are gonna make moves if we wait longer. We don’t get this type of an opportunity every day. We might fall into disadvantages if we missed this chance.”
Wei Haichao abruptly mentioned that underground creatures might make a move, and his words caught Lin Qiao’s attention.
Si Kongchen put down the files on his hand as he raised his head and leaned on the back of his chair. Then, he looked at the other and said, “You’re right. A lot of them have upgraded this time. They’ll be starving after the upgrade. They love feeding on humans, so they’ll certainly attack human bases. I’ll talk to Professor Bai again. We’ll take action as planned even if he says no.”
He sounded determined when he said the last few words.
“Will that be okay?” Wei Haichao looked at him with surprise and asked, “Pissing him off won’t do us any good, will it?”
“Don’t worry,” Si Kongchen gave him a glance and said, “He threatened me that he might switch partners, but we already know everything about him and he’s bound with us. I won’t let him go even if he wants to.”
“Are you sure?” Wei Haichao looked at him uncertainly.
Si Kongchen’s face, which wore no expression most of the time, was toned with coldness at that moment. He snorted and said with a frosty voice, “He’s been telling me what to do as if I’m one of his subordinates. I’ve had so enough of it. If he really doesn’t want to keep working with us, we’ll stop showing him respect.”
As the leader of Huaxia Base, he needed to follow that professor’s instructions. He was sick of that since long ago. However, the professor was extremely knowledgeable and had some extraordinarily advanced technologies. No other people could compare with him. Si Kongchen wanted the results of his research, so he had to be nice to him and show him respect to make him relax his vigilance and produce weapons for him whole-heartedly.
Professor By was intending to control him. How could that be easy?
Wei Haichao looked at him as he stayed silent for a few seconds and then nodded, “You should have made that decision long ago. We don’t know what Professor Bai is thinking, but his ambition has been obvious. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have built such a huge secret underground base. He brought so many people underground years ago but only he and a few others got out. I think that maybe what caused those underground creatures to come out wasn’t a natural reason. Do you think it’s possible that they did something underground to cause that?”
Lin Qiao had her heart sink when she heard that.
Was Professor Bai the one who caused all those underground creatures to come out to the earth’s surface? Was the underground world that she had seen not supposed to be like what she saw?
If that were true, Lin Qiao would never, ever forgive that so-called Professor Bai!
On hearing what Wei Haichao said, Si Kongchen closed his eyes with a cold and sullen look, saying, “No matter what he has done down there a few years ago, he’s now responsible for those underground creatures. I don’t care about that, as long as he doesn’t get in my way. If he does get in my way, I’ll let him suffer consequences.”
Wei Haichao nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll wait for your call. Let me know when you decide to take action.”
After saying that, he stepped out of Si Kongchen’s office, leaving Si Kongchen sitting there alone. The latter turned to look outside the window and spent about ten seconds thinking quietly before starting to collect the pages of the proposal spread on the desk.
