The person who called to inquire about the situation was naturally Mr. He from the "Shark Tooth" Group.
"I……"
Shen He was about to answer, but when he looked at the drone in his hand, it inevitably got stuck.
Unsurprisingly, he recognized the problem.
Do you really want to hand it over?
To be fair, Shen He had no intention of delivering all these drones before the operation started.
His original plan was to give only part of it to the other party, while also keeping a few units for dismantling and research.
After all, he didn't really want to be a dog to "Shark Tooth" for the rest of his life - in fact, during the ten years he had been living in Sin City, he had only one goal in mind.
Rebuild the glory of "Tianhe" and get back everything you have lost.
In his opinion, the current glory of the six major consortiums is just the result of stealing the fruits of "Tianhe".
Especially for hegemons like "Snake Ring" and "Prism"... He should be the one sitting in that seat!
Therefore, whether it is establishing "Spark" or cooperating with "Shark Teeth", it is just a stepping stone to achieve the goal.
But in order to overthrow them and establish a new order in the City of Night Sin, just recruiting soldiers and horses is not enough.
The crystallization of technology in the hands of the consortium is the top priority.
Without technical support, talking about recovery is tantamount to wishful thinking.
But the current situation is very embarrassing. The team members tried their best but only brought back one drone.
This means that he can't secretly trick Chen Cang, he has to choose one of the two!
This is really... Although I have known for a long time that it would be extremely difficult to pull a tooth out of the "Snake Ring" with the strength of "Star Fire" alone.
Such a result is already not easy for Lei Song and the others.
But Shen He was still a little disappointed unconsciously, and there was even a hint of blame in his heart.
Even if they get one more "Haihe", they won't be roasted on the fire like now...
But now is not the time to be entangled, "Shark Teeth" is already urging him, and he must make a choice as soon as possible.
"Hello? Are you listening?"
Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Mr. He's tone couldn't help but become a little more serious, "Or are you saying that you failed again and didn't get anything?"
Tsk.
Hearing this, Shen He also became a little irritable.
In fact, he has always been disgusted with this Mr. He. The standard second generation ancestor's bossy face also made him quite disgusted.
Not to mention the current situation - his own people had just returned from fighting, and whether they could survive was a question, so he came over and urged them arrogantly.
The strength is all mine. Where did your "shark teeth" come from? !
However, from the other party's questioning, he also discovered that he didn't know whether he had really succeeded.
That……
After thinking for a while, Shen He made a decision.
"...I'm so sorry, Mr. He."
He sighed and put on a regretful tone, "The firepower of the "Snake Ring" was too strong, and with the intervention of the Inspection Bureau, we... achieved nothing. "
"Almost all the people I sent out were wiped out. I wonder if you can take this into account and provide us with some medical treatment..."
"……what are you saying?"
He was interrupted before he finished speaking, "We had agreed in advance that Shark Tooth would consider providing assistance again only after Spark gets the drone." "
"But now that you have failed again, what qualifications do you have to talk to me?"
"That……"
"That's it. I can ignore the previous losses, but I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore."
"Finally, I would like to give a piece of advice to Chief Shen, take care of your people and what you should and shouldn't say. I think you know what to say."
After saying the last sentence, the other party cut off the communication without mercy.
This also undoubtedly announced that the cooperation between "Shark Teeth" and "Spark" has completely broken down.
Shen He was not surprised by this result.
Rather, it is the nature of the consortium to abandon "partners" who have lost their value without mercy.
Thinking about it this way, even if the drone was handed over to him, he would probably just be like a dog and get thrown a few bones.
"Hey, something."
Shen He cursed in a low voice. At this moment, someone came to him to report the situation.
The team members who came back with Lei Song lost too much blood and were unable to save themselves.
Lei Song himself was rescued, but his body functions were also greatly damaged.
In addition, he lost an arm and had to undergo extensive prosthetic modifications before he could recover.
Hearing the news, Shen He breathed a sigh of relief.
It's better not to die.
Lei Song is the old man in "Spark", and he still has feelings. Of course he hopes that the other person can survive.
And this also made him feel even more that breaking up with "Shark Teeth" was the right choice.
Although it will definitely be affected in a short period of time, if it continues like this, not only will we not get anything really important, but similar situations will only become more and more common.
It's better to keep the spoils of war in your own hands.
The value of the newly developed small drone by "Snake Ring" is self-evident.
As long as it can be cracked and copied, it will undoubtedly strengthen its own power.
With this stepping stone, it will not be difficult to find other partners.
"Let him rest well, "Starfire" will not forget his contribution. "
Taking a deep breath, he made the next step, "In addition, give this thing to Mr. Luo and ask him to crack it as quickly as possible."
"Remember, no one must know about this!"
----------------------------------------
"Snake Ring" headquarters.
In the afternoon, Su Lin also rushed back from District 15.
"The young master's judgment is indeed correct. The one who attacked the factory in District 13 was someone from "Spark" again? "
She was now getting used to Xu Shi's unpredictable decisions, but she still couldn't help but be surprised.
But she was also a little unhappy at the same time, "So, it was Team Leader Xia who handled it again?"
"She's taken care of it, won't you be able to relax a little bit?"
Xu Shi thought it was a bit funny, why are you always jealous about this kind of thing?
Is this the inexplicable sense of crisis that women have?
No need, really no need.
And having said that, it's just her bad luck that she sent her to guard District 15. You can't blame me for her not coming, right?
"...I just can't trust her."
Su Lin unconsciously glanced to one side and quietly changed the topic, "Then what's next, young master, what are you going to do?"
"Just wait."
Xu Shi played with the pen in his hand and showed a joking smile.
"wait?"
"yes."
Xu Shi nodded slightly, "When things are like this, someone is almost dying of anxiety. Just wait until he comes to his door."
"Uh, Master, what do you specifically mean..."
Su Lin was a little puzzled, but before she finished speaking, the communication on the table started ringing.
Xu Shi pressed the release button, and as soon as the call was connected, anxious greetings came from the other side.
"Lao Xu, I heard that you were attacked? Are you okay?"
¯\_(ツ)_/¯Well, isn’t this coming?
