According to intelligence reports, a genetics laboratory controlled by the Berg Family once had records regarding Life Tree Vine research.
This intelligence was stolen by Ke Yiming from the Creator Organization, but the content he acquired was not detailed. All he knew was that there was a genetics laboratory in Layden City, White Eagle Federation, containing Life Tree Vine research records.
It’s just this brief piece of intelligence, with no more detailed information.
Strictly speaking, this is content Ke Yiming inadvertently saw on a document, and he didn’t even have time to look at it carefully.
However, for the military intelligence department, this information is enough to pinpoint the location of the laboratory.
According to the intelligence provided by Ke Yiming, the laboratory is located in Layden City, White Eagle Federation, and it is a genetics research laboratory.
Combining with other intelligence, the required conclusion can be analyzed.
Within the Creator Organization, core member number 7, the head of the Berg Family, Will Berg, has invested in many genetic research projects across major universities, laboratories, and superpower organizations.
Further tracing these invested genetic research projects pinpoints the location in Layden City, ultimately locking onto a laboratory located in the suburbs of Layden City.
The registered name of this laboratory is Layden City Genetics and Superpower Research Laboratory.
The intelligence shows the record time is from a week ago, and it was only delivered to the intelligence department three days ago.
This means that if the Creator Organization hasn’t moved the Life Tree Vine within this week, then the Life Tree Vine should still be in this laboratory.
Intelligence also has a time limit; a lot can happen in a week.
To retrieve the Life Tree Vine, we must act quickly. The longer the delay, the higher the possibility of the Life Tree Vine being moved.
"Have you confirmed it? Is the Life Tree Vine still in that laboratory?" Lu Heng was a bit worried about the week’s validity.
"People have been dispatched to investigate in Layden City. No special vehicles were found leaving that laboratory, but no one went in to confirm, so we can’t guarantee the Life Tree Vine is still in the laboratory," Qi Jinhui nodded and replied.
Generally speaking, transferring important experimental samples would use special vehicles for transportation.
Of course, it can’t be ruled out that the Creator Organization might use ordinary vehicles for transport.
They might even directly send a Superpower User to carry a box away.
Therefore, without going inside to confirm, no one knows if the Life Tree Vine is still there.
Xie Shi’en suggested, "Whether the Life Tree Vine is still inside or not, we have to take a look. If it is, retrieve the Life Tree Vine first; if not, we can investigate and see if there are other clues."
Lu Heng agreed with this view: "We indeed need to confirm whether the Life Tree Vine is still there, but if we act hastily, we might be unprepared."
According to the strategy discussed by the team at the beginning, it should be well-prepared and then use a thunderous method to eliminate all detected forces and bases of the Creator Organization at once.
The Creator Organization controls many mercenary organizations, multinational groups, and superpower forces. It is impossible to eliminate them all, but key forces can be targeted for cleanup.
If action is taken against these forces, sufficient preparation must be made.
Because once action is taken, the Creator Organization will get the news and will definitely respond.
Once the Creator Organization realizes this is a siege action against them, they will certainly withdraw their forces, temporarily lie low, and then gather all their powers to look for a chance to counterattack.
So, if the first wave of action fails to eliminate the target, it becomes almost impossible to find the target again.
Lu Heng pondered for a moment, looked at Qi Jinhui, and asked, "If operations are launched now, how many targets could be taken down?"
From the moment Ke Yiming, the insider, appeared, the Southern War Zone’s General Staff knew it wouldn’t be long before the Creator Organization was targeted.
The work of the war zone staff is to analyze intelligence, discuss action plans, and have many plans to deal with different situations.
Qi Jinhui is one of the main people in charge of this operation, so he is familiar with all the plans.
Upon hearing Lu Heng’s question, he gave it a bit of thought and replied, "Currently, there are seven targets where operations could be commenced, mainly the superpower forces and mercenary organizations controlled by the Creator Organization."
Although the seven targets can’t encompass all the important forces of the Creator Organization, they are sufficient to inflict a heavy blow on them.
As long as the first wave of action directly beats the Creator Organization into a position where they can’t fight back, the remaining task would be to clean up the remnants.
Lu Heng pondered briefly, then followed up with a question, "When can we take action?"
"The fastest would be within half a day, but it must be Dragon Power taking action, otherwise it would involve international issues." Qi Jinhui added a note on the nature of the event.
Since this operation involves many overseas targets, using official military personnel is not an option.
In this case, the freedom of the Dragon Power mercenary group comes into play.
In this era, on the brink of order collapsing, every country has mercenary organizations, some private, others with official backgrounds.
No matter the background, as long as the external identity is a mercenary, it does not involve diplomatic issues.
It’s very easy to find an excuse; just sign an employment contract with a company in the target area.
Mercenaries accomplish tasks for money and are not the main liable party.
As for the truth behind the scenes, it has never been important.
Lu Heng wasn’t surprised to hear that only Dragon Power could act, but simultaneously dealing with targets in seven different regions might be too stretching for Dragon Power’s current strength.
