Although they claimed they had no reason to lie to him, people who said such things often had an even more secretive agenda behind them.

Chen Gongrang frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Why are you so determined to kill our Safe Zone's Secretary-General? If you're that powerful, can't you just help me take his place?"
"It's part of our plan, and a part that must be carried out. Qian Wendao is the spiritual icon of your Safe Zone. Only by killing him can we transfer power into your hands."
Chen Gongrang said, "Spiritual icon? Since when did the Safe Zone have a spiritual icon? Did Hua Yongsheng tell you that too?"
"No. We learned that from other people. With your distinguished status, Mr. Chen, you naturally wouldn't blindly worship a spiritual icon like the lowborn rabble."
Chen Gongrang continued, "If we're talking about spiritual icons, I think Qin Siyang counts as one too. Why don't you go to Sigma District and kill him?"
"Sigma District? Is that the smaller Safe Zone? There's nothing there that concerns us. Once we deal with the larger Safe Zone, they'll collapse without a fight."

The young woman said, "He wasn't in War Readiness Zone 1 last time.
