BIOLOGICAL SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEM

Chapter 655 Accepting the quest or not? (2)

They would need vehicles that could blend into the landscape, perhaps equipped with some form of camouflage or noise reduction technology.

It was a daunting task, but Erik felt a surge of adrenaline at the thought. He lived for this: the thrill of the hunt, the challenge of overcoming insurmountable odds. And as he looked over the quest details one final time, he couldn’t help but smile. He wanted to do this, but by bringing a team, he needed to make sure his men were with him on this.

Erik knew it was going to be a mission like no other, a challenge that would test their organization and push it to its limits. With a deep breath, he picked up his phone and dialed Mira’s number.

As soon as her familiar voice echoed from the other end, he requested her to come to his office. He also asked her to bring along Aiden, Kael, and Lila, knowing that their skills and expertise would be invaluable for the task at hand.

Roughly half an hour later, the office door swung open and the four of them walked in.

Their faces were etched with a mix of curiosity and a hint of urgency, a clear sign they understood the gravity of Erik’s sudden summons.

They took their seats around the large wooden table that dominated Erik’s office, their eyes fixed on him, questioning the reason for this impromptu meeting.

Erik’s gaze swept across the room as Mira, Aiden, Kael, and Lila settled into their seats.

“Thank you for coming on such short notice,” Erik began, his voice carrying a sense of appreciation.

“I’ve called you here because I have a high-risk, high-reward quest on the table, and I need people I can trust.” His words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of the task at hand.

Mira’s eyes narrowed, her brows furrowing with a mix of curiosity and caution. She leaned forward, her body language reflecting her desire to understand the gravity of the situation.

“A quest?” Her voice held a tinge of curiosity.

Erik leaned back in his chair, his posture relaxed yet filled with a subtle tension. He took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling with deliberation, as if mentally preparing himself for what he was about to reveal.

“We need to retrieve some cargo from the White Desert.” His voice dropped, carrying a mixture of determination and apprehension. His eyes darted across the room, gauging the reactions of those gathered, hoping to find a shared sense of purpose and resolve.

The room went silent, faces paling at the mention of the notorious desert. The White Desert was a name that evoked fear even among the most seasoned mercenaries. But before anxiety could set in, Erik continued.

“I know what you’re thinking, but hear me out.” Erik’s tone was persuasive, his eyes flickering with a hint of desperation as he spoke. He leaned forward in his chair, his hands clasped together in front of him, almost as if he was pleading with them to listen.

“Each member who joins this mission will receive a substantial sum of money. We’re talking life-changing amounts here.” His voice was filled with conviction, his words almost hypnotic in their appeal. He held their gaze, hoping to find a glimmer of agreement in their eyes.

Aiden raised an eyebrow, intrigued despite the risks. His body language was relaxed yet attentive, as if he was weighing the pros and cons of the offer.

“That’s tempting, but the White Desert is crawling with Thaids. How do you plan to deal with them? They aren’t your average Thaids, they are strong.” His voice carried a tinge of skepticism. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝑜𝑚

The White Desert was a very dangerous place. Few in the city would be able to survive there. What chances were going to have?

Erik grinned, sensing the shift in the room. “I will deal with the ones we can’t collectively deal with. As for the rest, we’ll take a fleet of our new armored vehicles to retrieve the cargo,” Erik was confident in his ability to take down the beasts.

“It’s a perfect opportunity to test them in actual combat conditions.”

Kael, known for his strategic mind, chimed in with a thoughtful expression. His brow furrowed, showing his deep contemplation.

“Armored vehicles could level the playing field.” That was a reassuring thought, but not enough to convince him to go.

“But what about manpower? The Thaids won’t make it easy for us.” His eyes flickered with concern.

“That’s why I need you,” Erik responded, his voice unwavering. His gaze locked onto each of them, a sense of trust and reliance clear in his eyes.

“I’ll be dealing with the stronger Thaids, but I need people I can trust to protect the weaker members of our team.” His words carried a weight of responsibility, emphasizing the importance of their role.

Erik’s intensity heightened, his eyes burning with a fierce determination. He leaned forward, his body language conveying a sense of urgency and purpose.

“I can’t think of anyone better suited for that role than you four.” He had faith in their abilities and wished they would meet the challenge.

The group exchanged uncertain glances, their expressions reflecting a mix of hesitation and curiosity. Mira spoke up, her voice laced with caution.

“Erik, we appreciate your trust in us, but before we decide, we need more information. How do you think we should move? What is the strategy you want to employ? How is the situation in general?” 𝑖𝘳𝑎.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Erik’s brows furrowed as he paused, considering their request. He knew that withholding information would only breed further doubt and uncertainty. With a sigh, he leaned back in his chair, his intensity giving way to a more thoughtful demeanor.

“You have a valid point,” he admitted, his voice tinged with a hint of regret.

“Let me explain what I planned to do…”

The group exchanged glances once again, their expressions shifting from uncertainty to intrigue. They could sense the weight of the decision before them, the potential for adventure and discovery.
