Kyoto, this thousand-year-old capital, still maintains its unique charm despite the impact of modernization.
At this moment, in a corner of this city, in a solemn meeting room, the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Inside the conference room, the light was soft and bright. A group of high-ranking officials from Dragon Country sat upright, their eyes fixed on the large screen in front of them.
There, a video of a mountain range shrouded in darkness was being played - the Heng Mine Mountain.
Not long ago, Heng Mine was covered by a strange plant called "irrational root". Its appearance was like a time bomb, which could cause unpredictable disasters at any time.
Since learning the news, the top leaders of Longguo have been paying close attention to the developments there day and night, hoping to find a solution.
"Has the shelter association taken any action?" a senior official couldn't help but ask.
Although his voice was low, it revealed an anxiety that was difficult to conceal.
The person in charge of sealing off the Heng Mine area sighed and frowned, as if he was under tremendous pressure.
"I haven't seen them yet." His voice was full of helplessness and bitterness.
This news was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the fire of hope in everyone's hearts.
The Asylum Society, this mysterious and powerful organization, possesses powers beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
They thought that the shelter would take action as soon as possible to resolve the problem of Heng Mine.
However, the reality left them disappointed and confused.
"Why don't we go ask Su Ze?" Just then, another person in charge made a suggestion.
There was a gleam of anticipation in his eyes, as if he saw hope of solving the problem.
This proposal was quickly responded to by others.
They all felt that Su Ze, as a representative of the shelter, should be able to help them contact the shelter and learn more about the situation.
The old man from Longguo was obviously also shaken. He nodded slightly and was about to ask his secretary to make a call for him.
Just then, a sudden cell phone ring rang, breaking the silence in the meeting room.
Everyone turned to look at the source of the sound, only to see a person in charge holding a mobile phone with a strange look on his face.
"What's wrong?" someone couldn't help but ask.
The person in charge took a deep breath, as if to calm his inner shock.
"According to the news from Heng Mine, the mobile task force of the Shelter Association has entered the scene." Although his voice was calm, it revealed an indescribable shock.
This news was like a bombshell, causing an uproar in the conference room.
Everyone widened their eyes and looked at the person in charge in disbelief.
They could never imagine that the shelter would be able to break through the numerous blockades and enter the Heng Mine without them noticing.
"Is it the same weird and unpredictable method again? We didn't even notice it at all!" A senior official couldn't help but sigh.
His tone was full of fear and helplessness.
"How did they break through those blockades? Their ability is kind of scary!" another person echoed.
His face was full of fear and confusion, as if he had seen something incredible.
Although the shelter is currently on their side, everyone couldn't help but feel a little nervous when they thought about the other party possessing such terrible abilities.
They began to re-examine this mysterious and powerful organization, thinking about how to deal with the possible crisis.
The old man from Longguo frowned and said nothing.
His heart was full of doubts and anxieties, but he knew that the most important thing now was to stay calm and rational and find ways to solve the problem.
The conference room fell silent again, but everyone's heart was filled with turbulent thoughts.
Time passes by unknowingly, minute by minute.
Suddenly, people's attention was attracted by the strange scene on the screen.
It turns out that the huge and ferocious figures of the irrational roots entrenched on the Hengkuang Mountain are gradually shrinking!
It was as if it was bound by an invisible force, slowly, slowly becoming smaller and smaller.
"This...what's going on?" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed, his face full of astonishment and confusion.
The person in charge of Heng Mine also realized that something was wrong. He quickly picked up the phone, dialed a number, and anxiously inquired about the situation over there.
The voice from the other end of the phone was a little blurry, but every word hit his heart like a hammer.
When he hung up the phone, his face was filled with astonishment and shock.
He raised his head and looked at the people around him who also had confused expressions on their faces. He took a deep breath and then spoke slowly.
"They said... that mobile task force, with just a few pieces of paper with something drawn on it, managed to shrink the Irrational Root!"
This news was like a bombshell, sending shockwaves through the crowd.
Everyone's eyes widened, as if they couldn't believe their ears.
"How is this possible? How can a few pieces of paper have such power?"
"How on earth do they do that? It's like magic!"
The old man from Longguo also heard the news. His frown suddenly relaxed at this moment and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"It seems that we really underestimated this mobile task force." He said softly, "But it doesn't matter. What's important is that the Irrational Root has been contained and we will no longer be threatened by it."
As he spoke, his expression became serious and his tone contained a hint of warning.
"I know that some of you may have some thoughts about taking me in, and may even be dissatisfied. But I want to tell you that we must abide by the rules set by others!"
His words were like a flash of lightning, cutting through the doubts and dissatisfaction in people's hearts.
Everyone held their breath and listened quietly to his next words.
"Any unauthorized containment experiments are not allowed!" The tone of the old man from Dragon Country revealed a trace of unquestionable firmness, "Whoever successfully contains the containment has the right to decide on the containment object. This is the rule and the principle. I hope you can understand this and don't have any bad intentions that will affect the cooperation between us and the containment association!"
Hearing the warning from the old man from Dragon Country, everyone was startled.
They knew that although the old man was usually amiable, his attitude would become extremely firm once matters of principle were involved.
"I understand!" There was a uniform response from the crowd, and those who did have some ideas in their minds quickly put away their thoughts.
They knew that the opportunity to cooperate with the shelter was hard-won, and they could not destroy this hard-earned cooperative relationship because of momentary greed.
However, although the top leaders of Dragon Country might temporarily put aside their own plans because of the old man's warning, in this vast world, there are always some people whose minds are so unpredictable that they will not be easily influenced by anyone.
In a secret place about 30 kilometers away from Heng Mine, a team has been hiding there for several hours. They are like cheetahs, quietly waiting for the appearance of prey.
The leader of the team was none other than Shan Shan Keiko, who came to Longguo for academic research. At this moment, she was no longer the gentle and bookish scholar. She was wearing a refined black combat uniform and her hair was cut into a neat short hairstyle. She looked capable and powerful.
Each member of the team led by Keiko Yamasugi was personally selected by her from the remnants of the ETO organization. They are all retired soldiers with actual combat experience, and each of them has a firm and resolute look in their eyes, as if they are ready to sacrifice for the mission at any time.
More importantly, they also have full monitoring and various high-tech equipment provided by Zhizi. These equipment not only make their actions more secretive and efficient, but also give them an absolute advantage in battle.
The reason why Yamasugi Keiko appeared here was entirely because of the reminder from Sophon. Sophon, the super intelligent life form from a distant galaxy, had abilities that almost exceeded human imagination. It could monitor every move of the entire Blue Planet in real time, and could even deduce various possible outcomes.
Originally, the plan of the Three-Body World was to directly trigger the characteristics of the irrational roots, allowing them to grow infinitely and directly cover the entire Blue Planet. But for some reason, the Three-Body leader suddenly changed the plan and decided to try to seize the irrational roots first, and then trigger their characteristics if the seizure failed.
Such a change naturally changed Keiko Yamasugi's mission. She was no longer just a bystander, but was assigned to this key position, ready to ambush the mobile task force that was about to evacuate.
"Master, will that team really evacuate from this place?" Time passed little by little, but the mobile task force never showed up. Yamasugi Keiko couldn't help but start to get anxious, and she couldn't help but ask Tomoko.
Tomoko's answer soon appeared in the air in front of her: "According to our calculations, the probability that they will choose this route for evacuation is 99.8%."
Seeing this answer, Keiko Yamasugi's heart finally settled down.
She knew that Tomoko's calculation ability was almost never wrong, and since it said the possibility of this route was close to 100%, the Mobile Task Force would definitely pass through here.
So, Keiko Yamasugi adjusted her mentality again and prepared for the upcoming battle.
She knew that this battle was crucial to the Three-Body World!
"Lord, I will do this task for you brilliantly!"
Her eyes were fanatical, like a believer.
…………
the other side.
The two teams that completed the containment mission removed the safety device containing the five-legged root from the 166 facility and restored communication with the site base.
"Omega Mobile Task Force Report!"
"The strange containment object ACP-1512 Irrational Root located in Heng Mine, Nanjiang City, Zhang Province has now been contained!"
"Mobile Task Forces—Nine-Tailed Fox Mobile Task Force Report!"
"We have now assisted the Omega Mobile Task Force in completing the containment of ACP-1512 Irrational Root!"
The two teams escorted the newly contained ACP-1512 Irrational Root and began to retreat.
Soon, not long after Hank and Jiachuo finished their reports, Dr. Heisenberg's voice rang out in their headsets.
"The containment was completed so quickly?"
"Hahaha, they are indeed our two best mobile task forces!"
"Sure enough, only you can complete this task!"
The other party's excited voice came, with a hint of barely perceptible fatigue.
Obviously, this doctor also made a lot of efforts in secret to complete this mission.
Afterwards, Jiachuo and Hank reported their mission experiences to Dr. Heisenberg so that he could record them.
After completing the record, Dr. Heisenberg gave unreserved praise.
"Honestly, you completed this mission very well. When I return, I will definitely ask the O5 councillor to help you apply for a public travel quota!"
But then Dr. Heisenberg's tone suddenly changed and became serious.
"But according to the satellite positioning we sent back at the scene, there is another team lying in ambush on your retreat route."
(Patch: Any conversations between ACP containment groups cannot be monitored by Sophon)
"Based on our speculation, it is very likely that this team was arranged by the Three Body."
"Unfortunately, we don't have enough time to find another suitable retreat route for you."
"So you may need to deal with this team next."
"So you must be vigilant and don't let your guard down. Wait until we reach our rendezvous point before you can release 1512 from the safety device."
After hearing Dr. Heisenberg's warning, the atmosphere between the two teams instantly became solemn.
They know very well that the road ahead will no longer be peaceful and an unknown challenge is waiting for them.
"Got it!" Hank responded in a deep voice, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.
He knew very well that as the elite of the shelter, they were responsible for protecting the objects in custody and could not slack off in the slightest.
Jiachuo also nodded, and her eyes also revealed determination.
The members of the two teams looked at each other, silently conveying their trust and determination to each other.
After receiving the coordinates sent back by Dr. Heisenberg, they quickly adjusted their route and prepared to meet the upcoming challenges.
They knew that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, they had to get 1512 back to base safely.
And in Kyoto.
Su Ze, who had been hiding in the secret shelter, suddenly stood up and left his seat.
There was a cold light in his eyes.
"The ETO organization is still haunting us!"
"You even dare to covet my things!"
"It just so happened that so much time had passed, and I haven't put these abilities into practice yet."
"Let me use you to test the knife today!"
He left the secret shelter quietly.
Then his figure flashed and turned into a shadow, rushing towards Heng Mine at a high speed!
Because he had announced the containment objects live many times before, those who wanted to take away ACP-1512 Irrational Root must have seen his face!
At this moment, he doesn't need too much perception at all, he can rely on his powerful positioning to pursue!
