Yuan Rihui paused before adding, "Also, the reason the Juncheng Military Base split from the central government is because those people demanded massive amounts of supplies,
medicine, and ammunition."
Raising an eyebrow, Yao Ran asked, "Isn't there anyone in the central government who dares to oppose them?"
Yuan Rihui shook his head at her question. "Anyone who opposes them has disappeared without a trace."
When Yao Ran heard what he said, her expression darkened. She sneered inwardly, thinking, 'It seems I need to speed up the plan.'
Noticing the slight change in her expression, Yuan Rihui hesitated before advising, "Miss Yao, this organization has extensive connections and a strong background. You should stay out of this matter."
Yao Ran looked at him and saw genuine concern in his eyes. Smiling, she replied, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Seeing her confidence, Yuan Rihui said nothing further.
Glancing around the desolate market area, Yao Ran commented, "This place seems abandoned."
Yuan Rihui nodded, "The fog and the monsters have cut off supply transportation. These days, many people die from starvation and sickness. I have heard that hundreds have died because of lung disease, and thousands have turned into monsters in these few weeks."
After saying this, Yuan Rihui fell into deep thought.
He couldn't understand why he and Ling Yi had been spared from the fog's effects or the bodily deformities. As far as he knew, there were only a handful of people like them who weren't affected by the fog or radiation. But most of them were soldiers of the First Army.
While he was thinking, Yao Ran studied him for a moment before asking, "Brother Yuan, can you find out more detailed information about The Ark?"
Yuan Rihui raised his eyes to meet hers and asked back, "What kind of information do you want?"
"I want details about their headquarters and secret laboratory locations. I also need a list of everyone connected to The Ark. The more specific, the better," Yao Ran replied.
Yuan Rihui frowned at her request. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Miss Yao, this information won't come cheap."
Yao Ran chuckled, "If you think grains and meat aren't sufficient payment, how about medicine or livestock?"
At her words, Yuan Rihui's eyes lit up. He asked excitedly, "You also have livestock?" Yao Ran nodded. "Of course. Otherwise, where do you think the fresh meat comes from?" "What about the medicine? What kind of medicine do you have?" Yuan Rihui asked eagerly. Yao Ran leaned closer, lowered her voice, and whispered, "The kind that cures mutation and bodily deformities."
Hearing this, Yuan Rihui froze in realization.
This morning, his men bring back news that thousands of soldiers in the Second Army had suddenly recovered from their deformities. Some of them even gained abilities and have now joined the special forces team under Du Zhaoyi's direct order.
