#924 - Chapter 924 Sincerity?
The appearance of the Green Source helicopter in the sky above left the cadres of the Raging Fire Base speechless for a moment!
They had just been discussing them, and now the main players were appearing right above their heads – what the hell was going on!?
But while they could afford to be stunned, the people in the helicopter weren't waiting for them to snap out of it.
Seemingly having confirmed their location, the helicopter turned and flew towards the outside of the Raging Fire Base's walls.
Before long, five people stepped out, watched by the people of Raging Fire!
The helicopter quickly ascended again, circling near the Raging Fire Base!
"Green Source has come to visit!"
"We request the Raging Fire Base to open its gates for negotiations!"
Liu Qing shouted at the opposing force, whose walls were over ten meters high!
This core member of Green Source, who had grown up with the organization from its earliest days, had matured a lot after the Minnan Province incident last year, and today he was here to carry out a task assigned by the base!
He had come here with instructions from the base!
Hearing the words from below the walls, the leader of Raging Fire and his cadres, who had rushed over, exchanged glances.
They simply couldn't believe that such a scene was unfolding before them.
The very people they had just been discussing had sent someone over.
What on earth was going on?
Filled with surprise and doubt, they conferred briefly and decided to let the people in to communicate and understand their intentions.
The helicopter that had brought them had already moved away, leaving only five people behind, and it was clear to the naked eye that none of them were carrying any heavy weapons.
Even if they had pistols, they couldn't pose any significant threat to Raging Fire.
"Let them in! Let's see what kind of tricks they're trying to pull!"
The leader of Raging Fire's words were met with agreement.
Soon.
The gate in the wall opened, and Liu Qing and his four companions walked in without changing their expressions.
After a series of procedures, the group soon appeared in a reception hall specially used for guests inside the Raging Fire Base.
Inside were two stoves with sparse firewood burning, and there was electricity, but only two light tubes were working.
Compared to Green Source, which seemed to have unlimited power, this place seemed a bit shabby.
But that depended on who you were comparing it to!
Being able to use electricity a year and a half after the apocalypse was definitely a luxury.
Many small and medium-sized forces didn't even dare to burn too much firewood, let alone use electricity, and they had to huddle together in large communal beds to keep warm and save firewood.
It wasn't like Green Source everywhere, where most people could live independently even in winter, and the headquarters had lights on 24 hours a day.
That was the difference between Green Source and the outside world.
"Team Leader Liu, please have some tea! This is something I've treasured, and I'm usually reluctant to take it out even to entertain old friends, but a distinguished guest like you deserves it!"
"The few of you have come from afar, so you must have some need for the Raging Fire Base. If we can help you in any way, we will definitely not refuse!"
The leader of Raging Fire didn't use the cold tone he had used when discussing how to deal with Green Source earlier; on the contrary, he was now acting with great enthusiasm.
There was no way around it.
Before he had figured out the intentions of the visitors, he really didn't dare to offend the number one force in Guangnan Province, which had suddenly taken off this year.
In the end, he was still a little afraid to provoke them.
Even if the status of these few people didn't seem to be that of Green Source's high-ranking officials.
They had asked earlier, and among the five people who had come, there was only one person at the level of a small team leader, and the other four were his subordinates.
At this moment.
Liu Qing, the Green Source team leader, a man who could be considered a mid-level cadre, met the Raging Fire leader's gaze without flinching, as if the leader of this force of over a thousand people was not superior to him.
Yes.
That was what he thought.
"Chief Fang is too kind."
"I'm only here today to convey a message from the base."
"This is a notice that our higher-ups want to give to you, please take a look!"
Liu Qing thanked the leader of Raging Fire for the tea he had prepared, and without wasting any time, handed over the mission item he had come here with.
The leader of Raging Fire, or rather, Chief Fang, took the sealed letter handed over by Liu Qing with a slightly suspicious expression, and immediately saw a document with the word 'Notice' written at the top after opening it.
This is!?
The suspicion on Chief Fang's face quickly turned into anger as he read on!!
What did he see!?
This was too much!!
What kind of outrageous things were written inside!?
It clearly stated that the Raging Fire Base should hand over its helicopters and other flying vehicles, as well as the heavy weapons stored inside!!!
Wasn't this the same as taking away the lifeblood of the Raging Fire Base!!!?
"Impossible!!!"
Chief Fang roared!
The cadres of Raging Fire present looked at their leader in shock, wondering what had stimulated him to lose his composure so much.
Chief Fang angrily handed the letter to his subordinates behind him, his eyes staring fiercely at the composed Liu Qing opposite him, as if he wanted to see through the reason why the other party dared to be so presumptuous.
Of course!
These people had come with such a purpose, it was completely like shitting on the head of the Raging Fire Base!
He hadn't attacked yet, because Chief Fang wasn't sure whether these people really represented Green Source wanting to start a war with Raging Fire!
The hall became eerily quiet, with only the rustling and gasping sounds made by the Raging Fire Base cadres as they passed the letter around.
The visitors were not friendly!!
These people actually wanted the Raging Fire Base to make such an excessive concession, wasn't this equivalent to directly disarming them and forcing them to surrender!?
"Outrageous!!"
"Too much!"
"Is there any justice left? Is there any law left!?"
After understanding the purpose of these Green Source visitors, the other Raging Fire cadres were all extremely angry.
Everyone stared at Liu Qing, the young man, with eyes spitting fire. If looks could kill, Liu Qing would have been pierced through countless times by now.
Unfortunately, they couldn't.
"You should have seen our base's request, right?"
"It's very simple, we hope that you will hand over your aerial vehicles and heavy weapons, and accept the unified allocation of the Green Source Base from now on!"
"As long as the Raging Fire Base is willing to cooperate well, our base will definitely not neglect you in the future, and let Raging Fire enjoy treatment similar to that of the Red Cloud and other bases!"
"We are really sincere!"
Liu Qing, as if he didn't see the fiery gazes opposite him, continued to truthfully state the mission that the base had given him.
As if he was talking about an insignificant little thing.
"...Heh..."
The leader of Raging Fire and his cadres behind him began to breathe heavily, amused by the young man's arrogant tone.
Forcing himself to regain his composure, the leader of Raging Fire said with a sneer:
"Sincerity!?"
"Is this kind of performance really coming with sincerity!? We don't feel it at all!!"
"If you really represent Green Source and have come here for such a thing, then I represent Raging Fire in refusing!!"
"If you want to fight, then fight!"
"We Raging Fire will not fear anyone!!"
