Chapter 167 Codename Crow
Chapter 167 Codename Crow
In that extremely spacious and huge office, Zhao Yunxiao sat quietly in front of his desk. His fingers in black gloves were like rhythmic drumsticks, tapping the table lightly again and again, making dull but regular sounds.
As if he was thinking about something important.
At this time, the huge screen that originally displayed the relevant information of 500 people was not in an optimistic situation. Most of the screens had gone black, and only more than 100 were still working normally.
On the other wall of the office, there is another equally huge display screen, which is divided into six windows.
They correspond to the five people in the gang and Nanyu, who is now sitting leisurely in the teahouse, leisurely drinking the iced tea.
The five people are Nalan Yangxin, Jiang Shaoxing, Shangguan Qingye, Jiali and Luo De.
"Tsk, Old Zhao, look at Nanyu, why is he so unmotivated?"
Yuan on the side also frowned and spoke anxiously, his eyes fixed on the image of Nanyu leisurely drinking tea on the screen, and a hint of worry was revealed in his eyes.
"What if they're not motivated? What if they don't obey headquarters' orders after the training? This is related to the success of the entire operation. We can't take it lightly."
"Look at the other top 100 students competing fiercely. They're all like chickens with blood pumped up, desperately trying to stand out and achieve better results. Meanwhile, he, who was previously ranked first, seems to be slacking off. I really don't know what's going on in his mind."
As Yuan Ye spoke, he shook his head with an unpleasant expression, as if his own child was not living up to his expectations, which made him feel helpless and anxious.
"What's the hurry? Old Yuan, don't be anxious." Zhao Yunxiao looked calm. He leaned slightly on the back of the chair with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, as if the situation before him was within his expectations.
"New recruits are always like that at first. They're so ignorant and arrogant, and they always think they're so great. When this is over, we'll bring them all to the base for a few days of training. Let them get a feel for the rules here, and they'll definitely behave themselves."
"That's true, but Old Zhao, the army is indeed full of troublemakers like this. Haven't you seen enough? It's always a headache to deal with them."
Yuan also sighed helplessly, and when he thought of those unruly recruits in the past, he felt scared.
"Hmph, so what?" Zhao Yunxiao's smile faded slightly, and a hint of determination appeared in his eyes.
"Old Yuan, you can't be intimidated by these young people. What's the purpose of our training base? Isn't it specifically to train these troublemakers and polish them into useful talents?"
"Well, Lao Zhao, what you said makes sense."
Yuan Ye listened to Zhao Yunxiao's words, nodded slightly, and turned his gaze back to the five people on the screen.
"From my perspective, those first five aren't good people either. Take Jiali for example. Even though she looks like a fragile little girl, you can't judge a person by their appearance.
"Look at the surveillance footage from earlier. She could kill a snowman monster with just three punches, and that camera hanging around her neck is no ordinary prop."
As Yuan Ye spoke, he picked up a thick file on the table. It contained detailed information of many newcomers.
He skillfully flipped through a few pages of paper. "Hiss, among this batch of newcomers, there's actually a 056 Clairvoyance, a 028 Judgment, and there seem to be four or five in the top 30 of the sequence.
"These are incredible abilities. If they're not properly controlled, they could become crimes committed by users with extremely high-risk abilities."
"Oh my god, are you sure we can really control this? How about we ask the higher-ups to send a few teams down to take care of it?"
The more Yuan thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead awkwardly and asked with a worried look in his eyes.
"Hmph." Zhao Yunxiao snorted coldly when he heard this. The expression on his face instantly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, and a hint of displeasure was revealed in his eyes.
"Old Yuan, do you really have so little faith in our training base? We've been working here for so many years, and we've seen all kinds of troublemakers and dealt with all kinds of situations. You're just too lacking in confidence."
"I...I believe it. I'm just worried about what might happen."
After hearing what Zhao Yunxiao said, Yuan Ye coughed in embarrassment and said with a red face that he knew in his heart that what he said was a bit inappropriate, but he was really shocked by the special abilities of those newcomers.
"Since you're worried about the worst, then go ahead and ask for it. Also, give headquarters a priority request for the team codenamed 'Raven'."
Zhao Yunxiao slammed the table, stood up, and spoke in an imposing manner, as if he was going to deal with an extremely urgent matter immediately.
Yuan also stayed where he was, stunned for a moment. He thought he was deaf and didn't hear clearly what Zhao Yunxiao said.
e. Brother, why don’t you just say you’re going to find someone? What do you want?
But Yuan Ye did not refute and immediately walked out of the office. He applied to his superiors for the [Crow] team.
