#225 - Chapter 225 Visiting the Southwest Military Region

“It's not your fault; no one could have imagined such an unbelievable thing,” Bai Li Ji said.

“The Northwest Military Region isn't peaceful either. A large number of cult members are rampaging around the Gan and Lan areas. If we hadn't transferred 60,000 soldiers from the three military regions in advance to maintain local security, they probably would have turned the place upside down,” Yan Zhengping said.

“They're probably all trying to find my whereabouts,” Bai Li Ji said with a smile.

“That's right, so what are you planning to do next?” Yan Zhengping asked.

“Kyoto can't be in chaos, and the Mosang Ark Base can't have any accidents either. The best way is to complete the silent transition,” Bai Li Ji said.

Yan Zhengping nodded in agreement.

The simplest way, of course, would be to directly rush into the Parliament Building and take down that fake. But if we do that, things will inevitably become known to everyone.

This is a slap in the face to the Parliament, and a slap in the face to the entire Hua country.

Moreover, the entire Kyoto, the entire Central Military Region, will be thrown into chaos.

Who is real? Who is fake? Who should we believe?

In short, as a cult member, he is not qualified to judge what is real or fake.

“My body is almost recovered. In the next two days, you accompany me to Kyoto. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible,” Bai Li Ji said.

“Okay. Now that the other party is already a frightened bird, it won't be easy to see him. In order to avoid conflicts and escalating the situation, I suggest making a detailed plan before we set off,” Yan Zhengping said.

“That's right!”

After eating breakfast, Yan Zhengping took Bai Li Ji to visit the military camp.

To avoid trouble, Bai Li Ji wore a military uniform, a mask, and a military cap.

Probably everyone in Hua country recognizes his face.

“Old Yan, what have you done to make the Southwest Military Region like this?” Bai Li Ji asked, expressing his dissatisfaction.

“Don't rush to conclusions. I'm worried that if you knew the reason, you'd be eager to learn from me,” Yan Zhengping said with a smile.

“Cut the crap! This? Me, learn from you?” Bai Li Ji said dismissively.

What should a military region look like?

Every place should be neatly arranged.

But look at the headquarters of this Southwest Military Region, activity rooms are built everywhere, densely packed and messy.

This doesn't look like a military region at all; it looks more like a farmers market.

“Don't believe me, huh?” Yan Zhengping asked with a smile.

“Old Yan, it's just the two of us here now. Listen to an old brother's advice, and quickly rectify it. Later, I will send people from the Military and Political Department to inspect it. If it's still like this by then, I'll really dismiss you as commander!” Bai Li Ji said.

“Come with me.” Yan Zhengping was unconvinced.

Seeing that Yan Zhengping didn't listen, Bai Li Ji shook his head but still followed.

The two soon arrived at a warehouse.

There was a squad of soldiers on guard at the warehouse door.

This situation was rare. To have so many people guarding in the military region meant that the things inside were very important.

Bai Li Ji couldn't help but frown.

“Salute!” the soldier shouted.

“Open the door,” Yan Zhengping ordered.

“Yes!” Two soldiers saluted again and ran over to open the door.

The two walked in.

“What is this?” Bai Li Ji asked, seeing several large boxes in the warehouse.

“Open it and see,” Yan Zhengping said with a mysterious smile.

Seeing him acting mysteriously, Bai Li Ji walked to a box and opened it directly.

“Hiss~” What came into his eyes was a box full of blue crystals. Like a box of glittering gems, emitting a dazzling blue light.

“This is… crystal cores?” Bai Li Ji asked.

“That's right,” Yan Zhengping looked at him and replied with a smile.

Bai Li Ji didn't pay attention to his expression and walked to another box and opened it.

Still a box full of crystal cores!

He opened another box, and it was the same.

“These are all crystal cores?” Bai Li Ji asked.

“That's right,” Yan Zhengping continued to reply with a smile.

Bai Li Ji had been in a coma for half a year, so he didn't have a very good idea of the use of crystal cores. In his impression, crystal cores were taken from the heads of zombies. As for what they were used for, he didn't know.

“Old Yan, so many crystal cores, how many zombies did you have to hunt!” Bai Li Ji said in shock.

Yan Zhengping had been raising mice since the beginning of July, and he had just harvested a batch a few days ago, only tens of thousands of crystal cores, not many.

Even so, Bai Li Ji was surprised.

His impression was still stuck in December. At that time, the cost of obtaining a crystal core was very high because the sacrifice rate of soldiers was too high.

“This is only how many? Only tens of thousands,” Yan Zhengping said with a smile.

“Tens of thousands? Only?” Bai Li Ji couldn't believe his ears.

Yan Zhengping knew that his understanding was still stuck a few months ago, so he introduced what had happened in the past few months and the use of crystal cores.

“Old Yan, then why did you show me these?” Bai Li Ji asked, glaring.

“Didn't you say that my military region doesn't look like one? Shouldn't I report it to you?” Yan Zhengping said with a smile.

“What do you mean?” Bai Li Ji didn't understand.

“These crystal cores are all produced from those activity rooms outside,” Yan Zhengping said.

“What? Produced? This thing can be produced?” Bai Li Ji asked in disbelief.
