Chapter 128 Section 51 District
In the White House, Regal still processes and integrates intelligence every day. As an important person in charge of the SS, some dangerous things no longer require him to handle personally. He only needs to sit in his office every day, look at the reports from his subordinates, and arrange things that need to be done. He will select the most important intelligence from among those selected by his subordinates and integrate it into a report.
On a desk piled high with documents, Matthew sat in the corner seat holding a special weapon issued by the SS, playing a balancing game with his palm while stuffing the fruit in his hand into his mouth. To Regal, Matthew and the documents on the desk were no different, requiring him to stare at them every day without missing a beat, otherwise he would stir up trouble.
This guy, who grew up with him in an orphanage and was assigned to the same team after training, still managed to get on Regal's nerves. He would often be careless about details in important matters and occasionally do something inexplicable out of the blue. Last time, this guy even wanted to sneak a peek at the lord's nightlife. If he hadn't been discovered and stopped in time, heaven knows what kind of trouble this reckless guy would have gotten himself into with the lord.
In the storage room of the Imperial Guard, that spine with a head that had undergone anti-corrosion treatment was still placed there. Even if the lord of the city is generally a very easy-going person, Reguru knew that he who started the fire was brutal to an extent that even ordinary demons couldn't compare to.
"This is so boring..." Matthew tossed the knife he had been holding upright for nearly an hour, caught it and turned to Regal with a complaint: "Isn't there anything we can do? We've been cooped up here for ages, I'm starting to rust. How about we go take out that trade guild's leader? Aren't they supposed to be some kind of threat?"
"It's not up to you to decide whether to kill or not." Regal flipped through the documents in his hand and said, "I've already reported once before, Lord City only asked us to keep monitoring them, now is not a good time to take action against them. Last time it was because of currency issues, now the Flanard Chamber of Commerce has become the focus of all eyes in Erland."
"The lord said there's a talented person over there, and after a while, we might kidnap him. At that time, you'll have something to do. By the way... are you usually this lazy? Why are you so energetic today?"
"It's almost been a month! Staying in this small room every day is simply the greatest torture for me." Matthew jumped off the table and shouted: "Occasionally exercising is also a good choice, otherwise you'll end up like him with meat growing on your face, and soon you'll be just like those big-bellied guys."
As Regal's second-in-command, most of the on-site command was done by him. Although Matthew is generally lazy, once he has a goal and something to do, Matthew can be responsible for completing it seriously. This is also why he became Regal's deputy in Shadow Squad, not just because of his good relationship with Regal.
"Am I getting fat?" Regal patted his solid belly and laughed, "I have high-intensity training every morning and evening, how can I possibly get fat? You're the one who should be careful, all you do is eat, eat, eat... You've been to almost every restaurant in town, right? Ah, speaking of eating, it's almost time for us to get off work, let's go grab a drink together..."
"Herr Reger, the mice have moved." Just as Reger had tidied up some papers and locked them in a drawer, an SS man knocked on the door, pushed it open and walked in.
"Is that so? How many people?" Regal nodded, picked up the short knife on the table and inserted it into the card slot at his waist, walked out in big strides and said: "Let the action group waiting nearby to inform them, it's about the secret of Thunder Cliff, the action must be light and don't cause unnecessary attention from civilians."
"It seems that drinking is no longer an option." Matthew flexed his stiff fingers, still numb from playing balance games, and followed Regal's pace, saying: "However, there are things to do now." Regal's office was at the innermost part of the SS garrison, as he walked out of it.
Heading towards the exit of the corridor, other SS guards who had already received the message also walked out of their rooms and followed behind him. For a moment, the originally quiet and empty corridor was filled with a black crowd, their uniforms making them look majestic and powerful.
District 51 is a secret area set up by Mo Yan in the suburbs, consisting of four factories. Its main purpose is to make industrial zone research centers, and develop the latest instruments and products. The craftsmen working here need to have a very clean background, important family members need to stay in Leifeng Cliff, and of course, they also need to sign a confidentiality agreement with magical effect.
They can't say anything they see, and nothing from Area 51 can be taken out. To enter Area 51, you have to change into special clothes without pockets at a designated place. Even during regular holidays, it is not allowed to leave Thunder Hill freely, and there will be sudden inspections by the Party Guards at any time. Although the salary is almost one of the highest in Thunder Hill, personal freedom is severely restricted, so there are not many Sartreans who want to do this job, only gray dwarves who love forging and technology can tolerate such harsh terms.
In the 51st district, there are the latest technological products of Thunder Bluff, some of which have not even been put into use yet, and only one sample exists. And it is precisely because of this that this place has become the target of most spies who come to Thunder Bluff. These spies with not-so-high technical levels will generally be discovered by the city's Garrison after arriving in Thunder Bluff for a few days.
Next was a tight control and surveillance, staring at everyone who came into contact with them, trying to dig out the hidden people in various departments of Thunder Bluff. After all, no matter how advanced the technology of the SS is, it is impossible to defend against leaks. If a spy comes to Thunder Bluff and does nothing but try to get into some important facilities to work, the SS would not be able to discover them.
Nowadays, Thunderhead has a large number of workers and service personnel on duty every day, and the small number of Party Guards cannot monitor them all. Moreover, wanting to infiltrate other people's cities like a sieve while not allowing any invasion in one's own city is a situation that can only occur in dreams.
When Regal arrived at the 51st district with a group of garrisoned SS, the surrounding area had been secretly cordoned off. The invaders were not those amateurish people from Eran, but a crack troop that had received regular training, with meticulous planning and numerous personnel. Such troops only existed near Eran, and only Malo possessed them.
"What's the situation? Have those guys already infiltrated?" Regal asked Glog as he arrived at the garrison of the 51st district. The place, which wasn't that big to begin with, was now packed with Stormtroopers and some agile werewolf squads from the Monster Legions.
"They should have all gone in by now, your people have been following behind them. The commotion outside is not small, they should have felt something wrong." Groke nodded to Regal who had just arrived and walked over to a spread-out map of the 51st district's factory area on the table: "According to your request, we've set up ambushes in some important places. If you can't keep them inside the factory, we'll launch a surprise attack when they retreat. And are you sure you don't need the werewolves to go in with you? Their numbers aren't small."
"With a group of forty, we can still handle it, and there are some secrets in the fifty-first district." Regal glanced at the map on the table, jotting down some important places in shorthand, then led his men out, saying: "Even those who participated in this operation and entered the factory area need to sign a confidentiality agreement not to disclose what they saw, so it's not suitable for too many people to enter."
"The more secretive something is, the more people want to know about it." Glock shrugged and said helplessly: "Unfortunately, we soldiers don't have the high clearance of your SS, so we can only assist in many things. By the way... do you know what's really inside District 51?"
"If I knew, would it still be a secret?" Regal waved goodbye with his hand behind him and said: "Anyway, it's some pretty serious stuff. Otherwise, why would so many people want to get in? This is the eighth time this month that someone has tried to infiltrate, and this time they almost succeeded without being detected."
When Riegel arrived outside the door, the SS troops in Thunder Cliff had already gathered and stood neatly outside waiting for deployment. Riegel simply arranged the areas responsible for each squad and led these SS troops into District 51, where a secret battle awaited them.
To bring out all the hidden shadows in the city, Regal allowed them to enter District 51. Although this could eliminate the threats once and for all, it would also entail enormous risks. If they obtained the intelligence they wanted in District 51 and the SS failed to stop them, it would be a huge dereliction of duty on Regal's part.
So Regal would personally come over to command, the SS had to kill all the Shadow who came to steal technology in District 51. If possible, they also wanted to capture some prisoners for interrogation and figure out Marlo's recent movements.
