<h4>Chapter 975: Chapter 982: upying the Base (Part 2)</h4>


    "If a high-ranking fighter from the Heavenly Listes knocking, can we stop them?"


    Hearing Ling Chen’s concern, Tang Guolun couldn’t help butugh and said, "You really don’t need to worry about that. This base is far more advanced than you think. With many advanced technologies in ce, not only can it hold off a high-ranking fighter from the Heavenly List, but it could also withstand an assault from an entire small battalion for two days and nights."


    "Really?" Ling Chen was skeptical of Tang Guolun’s words. If the base was truly that impressive, how did he and the porridge girl manage to get in so easily?


    Tang Guolun seemed to see through Ling Chen’s thoughts and exined, "You were able to get in not because of the base’s weak defenses, but because the staff here are so ipetent. They’ve just taken over this base and haven’t fully mastered its functions. Otherwise, do you think you could have gotten in so easily?"


    "Alright, I trust you if you say it’s no problem."


    In the blink of an eye, it was alreadyte at night.


    Seeing the porridge girl looking exhausted, Ling Chen couldn’t help but urge, "You don’t have to stay up with me. You look so tired; you probably haven’t had a good rest these past few days. Come on, let me take you to your room so you can get a good night’s sleep. If anythinges up, I’ll let you know."


    The porridge girl hesitated, then nodded gently, "Alright then."


    This new base built by the God Organization was incrediblyrge, with a total of two levels. The top level was the control center, and the lower level was slightly smaller, consisting of living quarters for staff, a cafeteria, and a gym.


    Ling Chen took the porridge girl to the second level of the base, choosing a rtively clean room.


    "You rest now; I’m heading back up." After escorting the porridge girl to the room, Ling Chen turned and was about to leave.


    "Wait!" The porridge girl hurriedly called out to Ling Chen.


    "What’s the matter?"


    "I... I have something I want to say to you." The porridge girl stammered. Feeling Ling Chen’s gaze, she unconsciously lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes directly.


    "Then I’lle in and sit with you for a while."


    Inside the room, Ling Chen sat on a single sofa, looking at the porridge girl by the bed. He asked, "What do you want to tell me?"


    "I... I’m sorry!"


    "Sorry?" Ling Chen was slightly taken aback and asked in confusion, "Why are you apologizing to me out of the blue?"


    "I know Master came to see you. No matter what Master said to you, I hope you don’t take it to heart. I... I’ve never expected anything and won’t make any demands on you, so you don’t need to worry. Don’t let it disrupt everyone’s harmony on my ount."


    Ling Chen was even more puzzled by the porridge girl’s words, not understanding what she meant. When his father hade to see him, he indeed said a lot, but most of it was about the God Organization and nothing else. So he was baffled as to why the porridge girl was saying this.


    Seeing Ling Chen’s bewildered expression, the porridge girl hesitated for a moment and asked, "Didn’t Master say anything to you?"


    "Say what?" Ling Chen snapped back to attention and asked curiously.


    "Nothing." Seeing Ling Chen’s question, the porridge girl immediately closed her mouth, rose, and started pushing Ling Chen out, "You should get back to work; I’m going to rest now." With that, before Ling Chen could say anything more, the porridge girl had already pushed him out of the room and closed the door.


    Standing outside the door, Ling Chen rubbed his forehead with a wry smile. However, from the porridge girl’s reaction, his father must have left out something, something that undoubtedly concerned the porridge girl.


    Forget it!


    Since the porridge girl was unwilling to talk, Ling Chen didn’t bother asking. He then returned directly to the control center.


    As soon as Ling Chen stepped through the door, he heard Tang Guolun standing in front of arge screen, waving and saying, "Ling Chen,e quickly; there’s something happening outside."


    "What’s the situation?" Ling Chen quickly walked over to Tang Guolun’s side, watching therge screen in front of him. At that moment, a team of thirty people was rapidly approaching the base outside. A few people stood at the back of the team, including Chen Quan and Ji Gang. Besides them, Zhu Hong, Chu Huaiyang, and Song Mingzhe were also there.


    Tsk tsk!


    It looks like I guessed right. Lin Guodong actually managed to get Chen Quan and Ji Gang involved. This clearly shows how much Lin Guodong values this new base.


    At this moment, the group outside the base wasn’t hiding their movements at all, heading straight for the front entrance of the base. By the looks of them, it was clear they intended to force an entry.


    "The enemy is approaching. Everyone, get ready. Whatever happens, don’t let them in," Tang Guolun ordered. "On mymand, activate the defense mechanism immediately, sealing all entrances to the base."


    Upon hearing Tang Guolun’smand, several tech personnel immediately began typing on their keyboards, activating the base’s defense system. Instantly, all the red warning lights throughout the base lit up.


    At the same time, on the monitoring screens, a twenty-centimeter-thick iron door slowly descended at the entrances, reinforcing the defenses. With two iron doors in ce, unless the God Organization usedrge-scale destructive weapons, they wouldn’t easily break through the main gate’s defense.


    In no time, the team of over thirty had reached the main entrance of the base. They set down their backpacks, taking out a few items from within and sticking them around the wooden door. Once everything was in ce, they immediately retreated to the side.


    Suddenly, there was a loud ’boom,’ as the wooden door was engulfed by the explosive st.


    Even in the control center, Ling Chen could feel a slight vibration.


    "How’s it looking at the main entrance?" Ling Chen asked with trepidation. Despite Tang Guolun’s assurance, Ling Chen was still worried. After all, there were two high-ranking fighters from the Heavenly List outside. If they managed to get into the base, it wouldn’t end well for any of them.


    After a moment, the smoke around the wooden door began to dissipate. Ling Chen leaned closer to therge screen, observing closely. The wooden door appeared intact, unaffected by the st.


    Seeing this, Ling Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.


    Thank goodness! As long as the first door wasn’t destroyed, Ling Chen had confidence in the base’s defenses. Even if the God Organization breached the first door, there was still a st-proof door behind it. Moreover, the thickness of that st-proof door was twice that of the first. And if the God Organization used too much explosive, it would make excessive noise and alert the police.


    As he pondered this, the group outside the base began trying other methods to break through the door.


    Several men took two cutting machines from their backpacks, starting to slice along the edges of the wooden door. Watching the sparks fly across the screen, Tang Guolun smiled coldly and said, "They’re too naive. Prepare to counteract."


    "Understood." A tech personnel nodded, gently tapping the enter key with his right hand.


    Instantly, several small holes appeared on the surface of the wooden door. Subsequent streams of liquid sprayed from these holes, instantly sshing onto the men.
