Ten minutes later.
Under the guidance of Song Qian, Jiang Yan arrived in front of a hive room painted dark red.
At the entrance of the room, a line of tall, imposing young warriors stood armed to the teeth.
Upon spotting the pair, the leading warrior saluted Song Qian, "Captain Song, good day!"
Song Qian nodded slightly, "Is Leader Mo available now?"
"The leader has a brief meeting that should end soon," the lead warrior responded softly.
Receiving this feedback, Song Qian turned around, "Miss Jiang, please."
His way of addressing her switched naturally between public and private settings.
Jiang Yan was used to it and replied, "Okay."
After scanning three access cards, three fingerprints, and one retina, they found themselves in a spacious and bright room.
Mo Jingsheng, a handsome man in military attire, stood before a 3D sand table about the size of four ping-pong tables.
The sand table was a bright white, likely simulating an external snowy environment.
