Chapter 615: Chapter 68: Who Is That? (Happy New Year)
The Celestial Strategy on-site looked at Chen Lusi, needing a moment to compose themselves.
But Ji Xin seemed unwilling to give them such an opportunity.
She didn’t even bother with Hu Shengping on the ground and directly continued the previous topic.
As if nothing had happened just moments before.
Or perhaps.
Everything that just happened was within her expectations?
No one knew.
"Due to the collective patrol of the Kunlun Pantheon, members such as Luo Mountain and others cannot return to Kunlun Mountain during this period. The existing intelligence system will be greatly affected, and even if restored, it would only be barely usable in the short term."
Ji Xin calmly continued, "And this isn’t the worst part. The worst part is that the legend activation warning will fail, and you should be well aware of what this means... Before the reconstruction of Kunlun, you will not receive any pre-warning about the activation of legends.
Although Kunlun’s warning accuracy has never been high... all of you in Celestial Strategy should know the significance of this inaccurate warning to the Celestial Strategy Mansion."
Upon hearing these words,
finally, some from Celestial Strategy reacted, moving their gaze from Chen Lusi to Ji Xin.
Mainly because Chen Lusi turned his head to look at Ji Xin.
So most of them were instinctively led to look at Ji Xin and listen to her words.
And they were indeed very clear about the significance of losing the Kunlun warning.
In fact.
When the Celestial Strategy Mansion said that Kunlun’s warning accuracy was not high, it referred to their inaccuracy in predicting the scale of a legend.
But this point can be resolved by adopting cross-team formations with different echelon combat forces.
However, once the warning is gone,
it’s no longer a matter of legend scale.
But the Celestial Strategy Mansion... will not know where legend activation will occur.
This is an extremely troublesome situation.
For example, the black rain that Chen Lusi encountered when returning home for ancestral rites.
Although the disturbance caused by the legend activation that time far exceeded Kunlun’s warning,
at least the Celestial Strategy Mansion knew that there would be a legend activation there.
So at that time, Li Zheng appeared there with people, realizing something was wrong, and could call for help in time.
But now.
Now the warning is gone.
So, the first step, even getting related personnel to the site on time cannot be done.
It’s foreseeable.
This will definitely cause chaos.
"Therefore."
Ji Xin paused and presented her solution: "All major teams cannot act according to the previous mode of being on call at any time, but must start patrolling. I know this is difficult, and each jurisdiction will also be understaffed.
But this is the only solution, and until Kunlun is rebuilt, it must be done."
Upon hearing these words,
all Celestial Strategy members frowned.
Chen Lusi also frowned slightly, thinking about the pitifully few remaining personnel of the Third Team, Wu You, Xia Panqiu, and Si Yujie, these few...
Upon thinking of this,
he slightly raised his head and spoke again: "To alleviate the manpower issue, can we have the entire Security Army cooperate with the Celestial Strategy Mansion? Most of the Security Army indeed cannot independently solve legend activation, but they can at least serve as manual warning."
"..."
Ji Xin was silent for a moment upon hearing this, looking at Shang Huan and Sun Xun, who also stood up and seemed to be pondering.
The two noticed Ji Xin’s gaze, snapped back to reality, then glanced again at Chen Lusi who was seated, considered it, and replied: "We do not oppose this matter, but we haven’t appeared in a long time, moreover, this is not just an internal affair of the Celestial Strategy Mansion, it involves the Security Army, and asking them to fully mobilize...
Let Chen Tiance handle the negotiations, he has a military rank within the Security Army, and is also the chief officer of the mobile unit, the Security Army trusts him, with him stepping forward, the Security Army will not oppose."
Everyone: "..."
... Military rank? Mobile unit?
They didn’t know about these matters.
So, what exactly is the mobile unit?
If it was before, before Chen Lusi entered the conference room.
They would only think it was a special unit possessing Celestial Punishment Weapons, and Chen Lusi, the creator of the Celestial Punishment Weapon, was just a nominal chief officer.
But at this moment, after witnessing Chen Lusi pressing Hu Shengping onto the ground firsthand, no one thought this way anymore.
Is this chief officer really just nominal? Is this mobile unit really just as simple as a special unit possessing Celestial Punishment Weapons?
They don’t believe it.
Moreover,
the Security Army trusts him?
Or... does the Security Army only trust him?
After Xia Yue’s death, it was already surprising enough that the successor for the Third Team’s Celestial Strategy wasn’t Si Yujie, but someone else.
And this successor’s personal martial prowess and influence seem to be no less than Xia Yue’s... leaving them tongue-tied.
This person... has only joined the Celestial Strategy Mansion for less than half a year, right?
So how on earth did he accomplish it?
The expressions of those in the Celestial Strategy fluctuated.
But Ji Xin didn’t pay attention to others’ expressions and looked at Chen Lusi again upon hearing the words.
"I will negotiate."
Chen Lusi slowly nodded, agreeing: "However... I think, for the sake of future cooperation, members from the Security Army could also be assigned to serve in the Celestial Strategy Mansion as Celestial Strategy members.
Weren’t you planning to reinstate Hu Shengping’s Celestial Strategy position? He’s not capable, let the Security Army take over."
"... Who?"
Ji Xin paused for a moment, then asked: "Who do you suggest?"
Chen Lusi provided a name: "Mobile Unit, Li Zheng."
"Alright, do you all have any objections?"
Ji Xin hesitated for a moment, then nodded and looked at the others.
Silence.
Hu Shengping lay not far away.
Even if they wanted to object... they couldn’t bring themselves to speak.
Because Hu Shengping indeed couldn’t cut it.
