Mote City, Republic of Ika

In a spacious and luxurious office decorated with various statues, He Ao stood under the bright lights and looked up at the spacious floor-to-ceiling windows. The sun was covered in the sky, and scattered red light was coming from the edge of the sun.

Sprinkle, he spoke slowly,

"Are all the heads of the major branches here?"

The people crowded in the office behind him were silent for a moment when they heard this question.

They looked at each other, and there was some commotion in the crowd, as if they were hesitating how to answer He Ao's question, for fear of accidentally offending He Ao and becoming one of the corpses lying below.

"The heads of the branches near Mote City have been summoned here by Set,"

A thin young man standing at the end of the crowd spoke tremblingly. Upon hearing his voice, the crowd naturally gave way and opened a passage leading to He Ao.

The young man hesitated for a moment, then stepped onto the passage, passed through the eyes of the people on both sides that contained contempt, ridicule, and pity, walked behind He Ao, and continued,

"About 30% of the people in charge who are far away have not yet arrived."

He Ao looked back at the young man behind him. He looked to be in his mid-twenties, thin, with messy brown hair. He asked, "What's your name?"

Under He Ao's gaze, the young man lowered his head tremblingly and said slowly, "Director of the Liaison Office of the Ika Republic Branch, Como."

"Branch Liaison?"

He Ao glanced at Como's body with his spiritual consciousness. Judging from its extraordinary energy, it seemed to be a D-level body.

"He is responsible for the communication between the Mote City headquarters and various branches, sending and receiving various materials, and archiving them."

Como explained slowly.

"That is to say,"

He Ao looked at the young man in front of him, "Are you familiar with the extraordinary information of the entire Ika Republic?"

“I’ve been doing this all my life, I’m just familiar with it within the scope of my duties.”

Como nodded slightly.

"very good,"

He Ao patted his shoulder and walked forward, "Take me to the archives."

Como paused slightly and seemed a little disappointed.

Most of the people around him who were watching him lowered their gazes slightly, with a little ridicule in their eyes.

Some regrets flashed in the eyes of some young and middle-aged people at the end of the crowd whose clothes were obviously not 'refined' enough.

He Ao had a panoramic view of it all.

At this time, the young man in front of him, Como, quickly adjusted. He looked at He Ao and nodded, "Follow me."

He Ao nodded, and walked with him through the passage that the crowd had just made, and walked towards the door of the office.

The surrounding space was surprisingly quiet, with only Jamies standing calmly in his original position, watching everyone in the office.

"correct,"

When he was about to reach the door, He Ao looked up at Como and asked casually, "Are you from a consortium family in the Republic of Ika?"

"ah?"

Como was stunned and didn't know why He Ao asked this. He had to answer carefully, "No, my parents are just ordinary citizens of Mote City. My father works in an electric power factory and my mother is a housekeeper. Our ancestors

They have been ordinary people for generations.”

If he hadn't been accidentally sucked into the ruins and gained extraordinary power, he would be working in the factory now.

"Are there many like you here at World Tree?"

He Ao continued to ask.

"I have many colleagues who are like this."

Como subconsciously scanned the surrounding people standing on the edge.

"very good,"

He Ao patted him on the shoulder, "From now on, you are the person in charge of Mote City."

"ah!?"

Como was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flashed with ecstasy, and then he immediately spoke, stammering in an unbelievable tone, "I...you..."

Those who were originally standing at the end of the crowd also raised their eyes slightly and looked at Como and He Ao, with an inexplicable look flashing in their eyes.

However, He Ao didn't seem to notice the changes in the office. Instead, he raised his hand to stop the incoherent Como, and then glanced at Jamies and everyone behind him.

"Jamis, I'll leave these people to you. Within two hours, I need all the intelligence from each branch on the extraordinary disappearance case in the past six months, as well as the evacuation plan for each city."

After that, he took Como directly out of the office door.

"Everyone, did you all hear it?"

Jamis closed his hands and stood in front of everyone and stared at everyone, "I think you all should have a lot of ideas now, but now the bloody sun does not leave us time to express our ideas,"

He took out a list from his arms. This was the list of people that He Ao had called out from the World Tree database before. Bright lights shone on his face, and the obscured dark sun with little red light hung high in the sky.

behind him,

"Now, in order to facilitate the implementation of He Department's orders, we are divided into groups first. The person whose name I read is the group leader, David..."

"exist!"

A middle-aged man came out from deep in the crowd.

"Kovo..."

"exist!"

······

As the names were read out one by one, the heads of each branch standing in the office gradually discovered that most of the people listed were 'marginal figures' who had been in marginalized areas, or who had not been reused in marginalized departments.

They are all people who stand at the end of the crowd, covered by the shadow of the crowd. Most of their families are not good, and they are not put in a high position by Set. Their parents and family members are still in the Blood Sun area at this moment.

And now, they stand at the center of the spotlight.

At this moment, everyone understood that the young 'Mr. He Ao' just now was not only asking questions, but also using these questions to distinguish their internal 'groups'.

Distinguish who is valuable to win over and who cannot be hired.

The change of power happened silently. In this very short period of time, a new power structure was established that could temporarily serve Mr. Ho.

After reading the name, James looked at the 'group leaders' standing in front of him.

These people whose relatives are within the scope of the Blood Sun are different from those confidants of Set whose relatives and property are suspected to have been sent to the Blood Sun area by helicopters. They are owned by He Ao and the vast majority of ordinary people shrouded in the Blood Sun.

of common interests.

While they were executing He Ao's orders and solving the Blood Sun issue under He Ao's arrangements, they were also protecting the lives of their loved ones and their own property.

Jamies knew very well that the current arrangement had already taken shape when the 'He Department' obtained the information about the Republic of Ika from the World Tree database.

But World Tree's intelligence is really like shit. It can't even distinguish its internal factions, otherwise the 'He Department' wouldn't have spent all this time to roughly test out the groups within the organization.

However, there is no cruel and almost bloody display of authority and violence by the 'He Bu', and these people will not have a mental breakdown and show their emotions on their faces so easily.

People standing here would not know that their fate at this moment had already been decided a few hours ago when the "He" boarded the helicopter.

Jamies shrugged the tip of his nose.

He has almost become a fan of this young minister.

He took a deep breath, looked at everyone, and slowly spoke according to the core concepts and speech skills taught to him by He Ao on the plane,

"Everyone, look at the bloody sun behind my head. It is reviving rapidly. Every minute, people disappear in this city, in this country, and in this 150,000 square kilometers of land.

"I know you have many doubts in your hearts. Who do you think you are working for? For what ministry? For World Tree? Even for the research institute far away in Middle-earth?

"No! You are working for yourselves! You are working for your own property, for the houses and cars you bought with your hard work will not be burned down because of the coming of the evil god!

"It's also for the sake of your wives, children, and parents, who won't suddenly disappear amidst that disgusting phone ringtone!

"The He Department can completely ignore you, but he still comes here. You think he is violent and scary, but he is probably the only person who is willing to come here at this moment and has the ability to save you."

The part about Heao was added by Demis himself. When he said this, he stopped and glanced at the expressions of everyone in the office.

The newly promoted 'group leaders' were obviously excited when they heard these words.

And those who were standing on the edge, who were once Set's cronies, also had some emotion in their eyes. Even though most of their assets and relatives had been transferred out, the place where they stood at the moment was still their hometown.

The land where they grew.

The group of people who are most afraid of death have long since run away.

Withdrawing his gaze, Jamies continued to speak,

"Now, cheer up and do all this for yourself, for your hometown, and for the world,"

He raised his hand and took out a document from his arms, "Let's start assigning tasks now."
