Enforcer's Handbook

On the afternoon when Oberna's body was transported back to the core area, the council held an emergency meeting.

Originally, for the coalition government, sacrificing a four-star rescuer was not enough to attract the attention of the Council, but Oberna brought back a series of important intelligence.

In fact, the recent series of events in District 17 have completely disrupted the strategic plan of the Council.

After the Foster family withdrew, they also secretly withdrew large companies' investments in District 17, treating it at a strategic level as an outpost to fight against the resistance.

Everyone knew that a war would break out sooner or later between the coalition government and the rebels, but who would have thought that before the war started, a mysterious force from the void would suddenly appear out of nowhere. District 7 seems to have some close connection with the void.

The evacuation of MI7 agents, the Omnic Crisis, and the death of Oberna Lionheart put this acute issue on the table, forcing the Council to face up to it.

Multiple evidences show that the omnic crisis in most of the coalition government is related to a shadow in the void called "The King". Its will turned into a virus and affected the androids in the factory, which led to the outbreak of this vigorous war. of artificial intelligence strikes.

This is the crux of the matter.

The previous cold-handling approach has proven to be a failed decision. The idea of ​​kicking the void to the rebels as a ball seems to be a beautiful idea, but they have ignored the subjective initiative of the void.

Whether it was the Omnic Crisis or the fog that swept through the entire seventeenth district the day before, they all proved that if corresponding measures are not taken, the impact of the void on the real world will continue uncontrollably. Today it is artificial intelligence, and God knows what will happen tomorrow. Something will be "contaminated" by the void.

According to this momentum, before the rebels can deal with the void, they will first be overwhelmed by the "pollution" of these voids.

But the problem came again.

Who to send to deal with it?

Faced with this tricky question, the representatives of the Council looked at each other.

According to the information they currently have, almost no one who has anything to do with the void, whether they die or run away, will have a good ending.

Oberna-Lionheart's death was bad news, but he brought even greater bad news.

Most of the "enthusiastic citizens" also died in the battle with the void.

As soon as this name was mentioned, the representatives were furious - this man caused such a big disturbance in the 17th District when he was alive, and became a thorn in the eyes and flesh of many families and companies, including the Foster family; now Even if he dies, he will not let the entire coalition government live in peace!

In the past few months, the intelligence agencies of the coalition government have been secretly investigating "enthusiastic citizens". Combined with the deep hole that the other party kicked out in the Barossa branch, which is as powerful as a tactical nuclear bomb, they have determined that "enthusiastic citizens" The combat effectiveness of "Citizen" is at the level of a six-star rescuer, and even the destructive power of its ability is among the best among six-star rescuers.

In other words, even those families and companies that hate him to the core have to admit one thing - this man can really fight.

This is also the real reason why after the Foster family withdrew from District 17, although they kept talking, they never dared to send anyone there again.

A person who can kick out a tactical nuclear crater with one kick, if he is really pushed into a panic, nuclear explosion of "Libra" will not be a plot that only appears in movies.

The coalition government is ready to engage with "concerned citizens" while it investigates.

But before this matter was even revealed, the "enthusiastic citizen" died in the process of investigating the void.

Your death is the end of the world. The question is who else can they send to District 17?

They originally felt that the defeat of Huanggu was full of strangeness, and now coupled with the death of the "enthusiastic citizen", it became a certain fact that the six-star rescuers could not deal with the void.

What's worse is that after losing the combat power of two six-star rescuers, they still know nothing about the enemies in the void.

This made the council realize that no matter who they sent next, the outcome would probably not be any different from that of the desolate bones and the "enthusiastic citizens".

Six-star rescuers are an extremely scarce resource even for the coalition government. They are also an important combat force used to maintain the balance with the rebels. They simply cannot afford to give away people in such an unexplained manner.

The representatives of the Council brainstormed all morning, but no one could come up with a practical plan.

Even if multiple six-star rescuers have to be dispatched, they must at least find out the truth about the void and identify the specific enemies before considering the issue.

"Lu Xiang."

In the silence, someone suggested this name, "Anyway, she is the only person who has been in contact with the void for so long without being killed. Judging from the situation investigated by Oberna, she knew that the void existed even as long as Longer than most of us here.”

"But she's just a one-star rescuer."

Doubts soon emerged.

Wouldn't it be deceiving oneself and others to hand over a void that even a six-star rescuer can't deal with to a one-star rescuer?

"Indeed, her performance on a combat level is not too impressive, but it just shows that she has found some way to survive the influence of the Void. Oberna also explicitly mentioned, 'Zealous The citizens found her privately before she disappeared, and she should still have some information that we don't know about, and this information is the key to helping us understand the void."

The representative continued, "Of course, her strength alone is not enough. We can send people to protect her safety and make up for her shortcomings that are not outstanding in combat... If protection is the first priority, rather than investigation As for Void, there are quite a few suitable candidates.”

…

In the afternoon, Lu Xiang, who was in the office processing the files that had accumulated over the past few days, received several calls.

First, it was a personal call from the chairman of the jury.

This was the first time she had spoken to the chairman of the review board. The latter's rude attitude toward her on the phone even made her wonder if it was a phone scam.

She had just inexplicably listened to the praise from the chairman of the jury himself, and then received a notification from MI7.

After detailed discussions with the organization, MI7 decided to make an exception and recruit her to join the organization. From now on, all matters related to the 17th District will be reported directly to the intelligence center of MI7.

Ivan once said that this is a privilege that only a very small number of agents enjoy.

Later, there was a call from the Core Area Rescue Management Bureau. Due to the unexpected death of Director Oberna, the position of head of the rescue department in District 17 was vacant. They believed that Lu Xiang, who had performed well in recent incidents, was the best candidate. , and even the Management Bureau considered that the status of a one-star rescuer might be difficult to convince the public, so they made an exception and promoted Lu Xiang to two levels in a row, and directly awarded her a three-star rescuer medal.

From this series of phone calls, in addition to feeling the ardent expectations from the coalition government, she also heard their worries about herself in their words.

Lu Xiang, you have to hold on, don't die!

?

After hanging up the last call, Lu Xiang couldn't calm down for a long time.

She didn't know if the council had misunderstood something, but she had never been prepared to seek death.
