The national treasury is equivalent to a small relic.
In the treasury, a large number of treasures from ancient times to the present are stored. These treasures are strange and varied, some were tributes from ancient foreign countries, some were excavated from modern tombs, and others came from outer space exploration. They are all top-secret treasures that are not allowed to be reported by the news media!
Lin Chao had heard that in the Huangdi Nation's treasury, there was a very precious metal that was collected from outer space when the spaceship landed on the moon. The material was the same as his modified dragon wing, both of which were A-grade materials that could be used to forge A-grade relic items.
Thinking of this, Lin Chao's heart was moved. If he had two A-grade relic items at the current stage, he could almost single-handedly challenge a base!
To know, according to the classification of relic items, tanks are just D-class items.
……
On the training ground, people from He's and Xu's factions gathered separately in two places. The vast training ground was like the Chu River and Han border in a game of Go, with a clear distinction between them.
Lin Chao and several others were on the side of Commander Xu's faction.
As for Lin Chao and a few others joining, the people of Xu's faction were overjoyed. Since the base was established, all external ability holders had been poached by He's faction, some of whom were secretly killed after joining them, resulting in more than 100 ability holders being former army veterans, with not one being an external ability holder like Lin Chao.
"My name is Lao Tang, you guys move next to my dorm and live there, those little brats won't dare to mess with you."
"You have a good eye for this, I'm telling you, although we only have over a hundred people, they're all veterans, and when it comes to real fighting, one can take on two. Although the enemy has more people, most of them were ordinary people before and don't have much combat capability."
"Right! Join us and you won't go wrong!"
Commander Xu's party members surrounded Lin Chao and a few others, excitedly talking non-stop.
Lin Chao smiled slightly.
These old soldiers are good at fighting, but the other side has more than six times their number. If they really fight, I'm afraid they'll be overwhelmed in no time.
He joined the Xu Commander faction, regardless of the number and strength of both sides. The main reason is that Chushan River is a member under Xu Commander's command. Although this Xu Commander is old, he is a wise man with great wisdom. According to later records, not only did he seize the final power, but also drove out the He Commander faction from the base.
At the same time, in He's party, the people at the center of the encirclement were staring coldly at Lin Chao and others. One young man said: "Zeng Lao Da, those newbies are not simple. Just now, Zhuo Qing used her Insightful Eye to observe that among the four of them, only two have a physique around three times that of ordinary people. That delicate girl in black dress has a physique six times that of ordinary humans, on par with Instructor! And that man who spoke earlier, Zhuo Qing said she couldn't sense his physique, probably because it's above eight times!"
Zeng Feng's eyes were sharp and cold, staring at Lin Chao and the others surrounded by Xu's men. "It seems that there must be a big shot behind them secretly supporting them, providing them with gene-enhancing drugs. That old guy Xu Commander can't sit still anymore, sending over a few dark troops. However, even if that person has ten times the physical strength, what does it matter? I'll apply to the higher-ups for approval and get some gene-enhancing drugs. In two days' time, during the actual battle, I'll take them all down!"
"Hmm, let these jumping clowns jump around for a while longer."
"That week, Xin was unlucky and encountered several hidden nails."
Zeng Feng said coldly: "Train well, strive to improve your combat skills."
"Yes." The people around nodded as if they had received an order.
……
At noon break time, Lin Chao had just finished eating when he suddenly saw Lao Sun from the Xu camp running over and saying that a big shot wanted to see him. His heart skipped a beat, and a hint of a smile appeared on his face as he followed Lao Sun out of the military camp and into a leisure hotel outside.
Entering the designated private room, only three people were seen sitting inside. Two of them Lin Chao was very familiar with, they were Chu Shanhe's followers and trusted subordinates, Xiao Song military officer. The identity of the other person seemed to be similar to that of Xiao Song military officer, a young Evolver.
Chu Shanhe saw Lin Chao and immediately stood up to welcome him, laughing and saying: "Brother Lin has finally arrived. If I hadn't heard that several Evolvers had gone missing in the Ability Camp, I wouldn't have known that the new recruit was you. Was your journey here relatively smooth?"
Lin Chao nodded and sat down casually, saying: "I joined the Ability Camp mainly to see you, I need your help with something."
"Help?" Chu Shanhe looked at him strangely, then thought of something and his enthusiasm slightly subsided. He smiled: "Don't worry, with your ability, as long as I recommend you to Commander Xu, you will definitely get a lieutenant colonel rank. If you work hard and accumulate enough military merit, you can definitely become a general."
Lin Chao glanced at him and said, "I see you're not here for this matter."
"Oh?" Chu Shanhe was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion: "What's going on?"
"I told you before." Lin Chao looked at him straight and said, "I have a sister, I hope you can help me take care of her. I'm afraid that if I die while hunting outside in the future, she will be left with no one to rely on."
"Ah, about that..." Chu Shanhe suddenly came to his senses, a hint of embarrassment on his face. "I really owe you an apology, Lin brother. I was thinking crookedly just now. I'll punish myself with three cups... no, a whole bottle!" He opened a bottle of white wine and gulped it down like water.
Lin Chao quietly watched him finish drinking and didn't stop him. Officer Xiao Song's face also showed a hint of embarrassment, saying: "I'll drink one too, to accompany Brother Lin!"
After downing a bottle of liquor, Chu Shanhe's face turned slightly red. He let out a satisfied belch and smiled at Lin Chao, saying: "With Brother Lin's skills, nothing will go wrong."
"Who said it was good? Those who often walk by the river will inevitably get their shoes wet." Lin Chao replied calmly: "Will you promise?"
"Don't worry, I've got it covered!" Chu Shanhe patted his chest, with a confident expression, saying: "I will definitely protect her well, just like my own sister, you can rest assured!"
Lin Cha nodded slightly, and with his understanding of Chu Shanhe, he should be a man of his word. He opened his mouth and asked, "What is the current situation in the base?"
Chu Shanhe's expression froze, the smile on his face immediately subsided, he sat down and let out a light sigh: "When the disaster broke out, many of the big shots in the military died, only a few survived. What they thought of first was not to save people or kill monsters, but to fight for power!" His face revealed a hint of indignation at this point.
"In the midst of this, some high-ranking officials were powerless to contend for power and left with their own troops to establish a base, claiming to be kings. Currently, there are only two major commanders left in the base, namely Commander Xu and Commander He. Commander He is cunning and sinister, has won over many evolvers, and is preparing to expel Commander Xu. The situation does not look optimistic."
Lin Chaonu nodded slightly and said, "As for the Science Institute, it's under Commander Xu's control, right?"
"Tech Institute?" Chu Shanhe was taken aback, not expecting Lin Chao to ask about this. He asked in surprise: "How did you know? The head of the Tech Institute is an old friend of Commander Xu's, but if Commander He comes at it aggressively, the Tech Institute won't be able to do anything. Since ancient times, those who have claimed kingship or hegemony have relied on their fists; only military power is absolute, everything else is just a soft knife, soft power."
Lin Chao said calmly: "If I tell you, there's a way to create many Evolvers?"
