"Well enough?"
Wang Hu looked at Shi Ruiyuan.
To what extent is it possible?
"I don't know about that!" Shi Ruiyuan shook his head. "After all, the battlefield is so chaotic, who has the mind to pay attention to other people!"
Wang Hu nodded slightly and turned his gaze back.
Even if he had misjudged Shen Heng's strength, he wasn't too concerned. After all, Shen Heng's abilities were undeniable, and even if Huang Jun wasn't as good, the difference wouldn't be too great.
However, this makes it difficult to ensure that Huang Jun remains on their team.
Should we bring both of them in?
"Oh, right, Brother Hu!" Shi Ruiyuan said as if he had suddenly thought of something.
"What?" Wang Hu shifted his gaze over there.
"Since Han Ling isn't joining us because she doesn't want to leave her original teammates, why don't we go find Shen Heng and have him persuade Han Ling?" Shi Ruiyuan, his eyes gleaming slightly.
"Why should anyone help us persuade Han Ling?" Huang Jun asked irritably from the side.
"Appeal to their emotions and reason with them!" Shi Ruiyuan said to Huang Jun matter-of-factly.
After saying that, he seemed unsure and added,
"If all else fails, how about we pool some Origin Crystal together and give them to him to talk to them?"
"After all, there's only one person in the entire base with such strong abilities as Han Ling, who is also skilled in ranged attacks. There are only a few others who are slightly less capable."
"This kind of person is of great help to our explorations outside."
"Giving Origin Crystal is indeed something we can consider, but as I just said, how much would be appropriate?" Huang Jun nodded thoughtfully.
"Alright, I understand. I'll handle it!"
Wang Hu said in a deep voice, then his gaze swept over everyone discussing in the meeting room before finally returning to the two people.
Do you have any other people you think should be brought into our team?
On the other side.
Inside the command center, several figures sat.
Shen Heng was also sitting there, waiting for Zhang Weijun.
While he was being summoned, Zhang Weijun went to deal with another matter first.
"So, do you know why I called you here this time?" The slightly overweight officer turned to look at Shen Heng and smiled, his tone quite familiar.
Shen Heng looked at the slightly overweight officer.
During this period, because he would come over from time to time, he had become relatively familiar with the generals who were mainly in charge of the base.
The slightly overweight officer was named Wang Yuanshan, and he was mainly responsible for logistics scheduling and personnel allocation;
Another elderly general, sitting upright with a serious expression, is Zhou Zhenguo, the commander-in-chief of the base's defense operations.
Yes, he was mainly responsible for the base's defenses, troop deployments, and daily patrols.
As for Chief of Staff Zhang Weijun, he was responsible for the base's overall strategy, policies, liaison with higher levels, resource allocation, and operational planning.
" General Wang, General Zhou."
Shen Heng first greeted him politely, then shook his head and guessed:
"I'm not entirely sure, but since I was called here after the meeting, it must be related to the upcoming exploration mission, right?"
"It is indeed related to the exploration mission, but it will probably be a little different from what you think," Wang Yuanshan chuckled.
"There are some differences?" Shen Heng looked at Wang Yuanshan with slight doubt.
"You'll find out soon enough!" said General Zhou Zhenguo.
Hearing this, Shen Heng nodded, though he was still puzzled.
Shen Heng withdrew his gaze and looked at Li Daoyi sitting next to him.
"By the way, Daoist Master, you probably won't be going out to explore then, will you?"
Li Daoyi said slowly, "I'd like to go, but I'm afraid my place will be raided!"
Shen Heng nodded slightly. Given the lack of high-end combat power, it seemed that the Daoist priest could only stay at the base indefinitely.
Of course, it's not that you can't go out at all, it just means you can't go too far, like last time...
Shen Heng looked at Li Daoyi and continued to ask, "How far did you go last time, Daoist Master?"
"About 100 kilometers!" Li Daoyi moment, then turned to Shen Heng, "Why are you suddenly asking this?"
Shen Heng didn't reply, but continued to ask, "What did you see in the distance like at that time?"
Upon hearing this, Li Daoyi seemed to understand slightly.
" The Erosion Zone is probably much larger than you imagine; at least, based on what I saw at the time, it was likely several hundred kilometers long..."
Several people were talking inside the command center.
After a while, Zhang Weijun finally returned.
After he sat down in his seat, he looked directly at Shen Heng.
" Shen Heng, the main reason I called you here is to assign you a task related to exploration."
Mission, exploration?... Shen Heng's gaze narrowed slightly, and he nodded gently.
"Yes, please go ahead."
Zhang Weijun looked at Shen Heng and said seriously:
"Since we don't know the situation outside, we hope you can go out first before the others do, and mark the general terrain of the Erosion Zone, as well as the main places where the Calamity Beast stay and gather, to avoid casualties caused by others running into Calamity Beast because they don't have time to scout."
The terrain, and the main areas where the Calamity Beast live?... Shen Heng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he heard Zhang Weijun continue:
"Of course, you don't need to know everything in detail. You just need to be able to determine roughly where the Calamity Beast are located and how many there are from a distance."
"This shouldn't be too much of a problem for someone with your abilities."
Shen Heng nodded slightly. If judging the quantity based on the movements was all that was needed, then it wasn't a big problem for him.
After all, with his abilities, he could hear the movements of the Calamity Beast from more than forty kilometers away.
The only problem is that if you encounter a place where Calamity Beast gather, and those Calamity Beast also send out flying Calamity Beast to scout outside, then things will get a bit complicated.
Shen Heng pondered for a moment, then looked up and asked:
"So, the ten-day preparation period mentioned at the meeting was actually because of this?"
"Yes, that's right, that's the main reason, but we also need to give everyone some time to get to know each other and the reasons for forming teams." Zhang Weijun nodded slightly, then added:
"Also, we're not letting you go alone. You can choose a few people from the base's existing personnel to accompany you."
"We will send you the relevant member information within the base shortly. Go back and select them tonight, then report back. We will contact the relevant personnel."
"Of course, as mentioned earlier, to ensure safety and avoid revealing your whereabouts, we recommend that you organize a team of at least 4-6 people."
"When the task is completed, you will personally receive 20,000 points, and each participating member will receive 10,000 points."
After a pause, Zhang Weijun looked at Shen Heng seriously.
Do you have any other questions?
Shen Heng lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head.
