Chapter 113 - Justification Added for alliance leader Next Door Old Wang Ting 17th update

“Sister Sun Li, although this matter seems far-fetched, it really is just a coincidence.

We couldn’t possibly know the coordinates of your pioneering base, and if you insist that we did, wouldn’t that be accusing us of spying on the guild’s top-secret information?

We will not own up to such slander.

It can only be said that this is a coincidence, that we just happened to hit the same base.”

Zhao Han replied calmly.

“It’s not that we don’t trust you, Sister Zhao Han, but don’t you think it’s absurd?

If it wasn’t planned, how could you have timed it so perfectly, to choose to act at the height of the battle?

And if it wasn’t planned, why would your group deploy so many people to attack?

To capture that ship?

We are all from the same Legion, and we don’t want to tear each other apart, making everyone look bad.

Just admit your error, and we won’t pursue the matter too harshly.”

Zhou Jing asked pointedly, without any pleasantries.

“Stop!

Who told you that our group deployed a lot of people?

Or that it was premeditated?

I can tell you, it is a coincidence, whether you believe it or not.

Moreover, Lin Zinuo and the others were transporting weapons when something unexpected happened, and they even conveyed important information—a fact you are aware of.

The weapon storage was later completely destroyed by the Monster, and they were fleeing for their lives, eventually stumbling into Red Coral Bay Base.

Plus, by that time, they were down to just fifteen people, not the large number you’re claiming, so stop falsely accusing us.”

Zhao Han vehemently denied the accusations.

At this moment, Deputy Legion Commander Tang Yao displayed a seductive smile and said laughingly, “Sister Zhao Han, your joke’s a bit too big, how could a dozen people attack a base?

Even with our restraint, it wouldn’t be possible without the whole elite group of your team.”

What a joke, they had so many people fighting desperately and still struggled to attack, so how could a dozen people just break in?

That’s even more ridiculous.

If it were true, wouldn’t that be an embarrassment to them, proving they were all incompetent?

“Exactly!”

The other team leaders present also found it laughable.

Even Qian Chengxue’s expression turned very serious as she began to speak.

“Zhao Han, are you not joking?

Just a dozen people broke in?”

“Sister Xue, I’m not joking.

If you don’t believe me, Lin Zinuo is waiting in the resting room; you can ask her yourself.”

Zhao Han insisted earnestly.

“Let Lin Zinuo come here.”

Qian Chengxue immediately responded, indicating that this was no laughing matter.

She knew better than anyone how strong the Monsters in the Red Coral Bay Base were.

If a dozen people could break in from behind, if true, how strong would that be?

In fact, she was also skeptical, but seeing Zhao Han so confidently reassured, she began to waver too.

“Alright.”

Zhao Han picked up her phone and sent a message to Lin Zinuo.

Before long, the door to the conference room opened, and a visibly nervous Lin Zinuo walked in, then greeted Sister Xue.

“Hello, Sister Xue.”

“Hmm, Lin Zinuo, I’m going to ask you some questions.

Answer them truthfully,” Qian Chengxue said to Lin Zinuo with a serious demeanor.

“Ask away, Sister Xue, I will definitely tell the truth.”

Lin Zinuo was also quite nervous, reminding herself to relax and not to fail at a critical moment.

“Did you really not know that we were opening up Red Coral Bay Base?

Everything was a coincidence?

And your group really only had about a dozen people when you broke into Baihe Harbor?”

Qian Chengxue stared intently at Lin Zinuo.

“I swear I didn’t know, it was all a coincidence.

At that time, we were all fleeing for our lives, like headless flies, completely losing our direction.

As for breaking into that base, yes, there were only a dozen of us.

When we set off, we had only about sixty people, and that’s all that were left along the way,” Lin Zinuo explained.

“That’s absurd, we don’t believe it.”

Sun Li still couldn’t believe it, this was simply too absurd.

“If you don’t believe it, I have the full video recording!” Lin Zinuo suddenly remembered and spoke up.

Hearing this, Qian Chengxue immediately said, “Project it out!”

“Okay, I’m on it!” Lin Zinuo took out a USB drive from her pocket and deftly inserted it into the designated device.

Soon, a holographic image appeared, and it was clear that the perspective was based on Lin Zinuo.

On an old ship, Lin Zinuo and the others were lowering a dinghy with ropes, and then about a dozen of them climbed down, with nearly half of them being lifelike players.

The expressions of Sun Li and the others showed they were somewhat unable to maintain their composure—if this turned out to be true, it would be a real slap in the face.

Everyone was intently watching the footage, not even daring to breathe audibly.

The footage was slightly sped up.

Before long, they saw Su Mo taking the lead by jumping into the sea, guiding them towards the coast.

When facing the densely packed monsters guarding the coast, Su Mo led Lin Zinuo and the others as if they were dancing on the edge of a knife, stealthily infiltrating without any danger.

First, they went to the weapon storage to get weapons, and then moved on to the supply reserves.

Next, the footage showed Su Mo leaving the group to head towards the mecha hangar.

Soon after, Su Mo was seen piloting a mecha out on his own, going on a rampage inside the base, stirring up countless monsters and attracting the attention of the General Level Kazami on the shipyard.

Through the footage, one could see Su Mo surrounded by innumerable monsters, yet he showed not a hint of fear, continuously fighting his way in and out, appearing like a death god.

The spectacle left the audience utterly dumbstruck.

Then it was Lin Zinuo and the others seizing the opportunity to rush towards the shipyard.

After a long while, the video that Lin Zinuo brought finished playing, and the office fell deathly silent.

Lin Zinuo said smugly, “How about that, I didn’t lie, did I?

It was just the dozen of us who broke in.

Plus with the fog being so thick and none of you having attacked, how would we know who was assaulting the base…”

Zhao Han, seeing Lin Zinuo getting more and more excited and continuously poking at their sore points, noticed that Sun Li and the others’ faces were becoming extremely unsightly.

She quickly kicked Lin Zinuo’s foot to signal that she should tone it down and not degrade them any further.

Lin Zinuo snapped back to reality and coughed before speaking.

“Sister Xue, this should serve as proof, right?”

Qian Chengxue’s cold eyes sparkled with a distinctive color as she asked, “Who was that operating the mecha?

His skills were so impressive?”

However, one thing puzzled Qian Chengxue.

Although the operating skills were impressive, the movements seemed to be broad, which should not be the case for newbie-level mistakes.

“Oh, his name is Su Mo,” Lin Zinuo replied readily.

“Isn’t that the guy from the last wipe with the engine?” the crowd muttered to themselves, equally puzzled.

After pondering for a moment, the name seemed somewhat unfamiliar to Qian Chengxue.

She knew a bit about the incident with the engine wipe, but since she had been too busy with pioneering, she hadn’t paid much attention.

As for Su Mo, she had seen him once before, in the elevator the night before.
