One of the files read:
[Dual Dungeon Survivor—Cheng Xiaoyu (E-Class)]
Strange things had happened to this young man, and he was clearly hiding many secrets. But his official rank was too low for him to be entrusted with anything important, at least for now.
The other file read:
[Wind Hidden One (Identity unknown, strength suspected to be high A-class to low S-class)]
This mysterious figure had recently been active in and around S City. His distinctive style and formidable strength had even made Bai Luhao stumble. He was worth keeping an eye on.
Gao Jianli lightly tapped the two files with his fingers, lost in thought.
The Jeju Island raid had to happen!
And soon!
They couldn't give those ants any more time to evolve and spread!
But how?
"If we gather every combat-capable S-Class Hunter in the country, along with most of our elite A- and B-class Hunters, we might... have enough strength to conquer it."
Gao Jianli analyzed the situation in a low voice.
"Bai Luhao, Che Huiyi, Choi Joong-in... We can barely scrape together five S-Class Hunters.
We can mobilize around thirty A-class Hunters and hundreds of B-class... But what about the casualties?
What if we lose another one or two S-Class Hunters, or the ant swarm wears down too many of our core forces...?"
He shook his head, rejecting the overly risky idea.
Country H couldn't withstand another devastating blow like the one three years ago.
"Ask for foreign aid?"
The thought crossed his mind, leaving him even more conflicted.
It was easy to invite trouble in and hard to get rid of it.
Z Country and the U.S. were the strongest, but letting either of them intervene would be like inviting wolves into the fold. Country H's say in Hunter affairs would be greatly diminished
