Chapter 327: Fighting for Interests
After the Harlan Hotel tragedy, the Harlan head of the F.B.C. naturally did not dare to conceal the incident.
He immediately reported it to Morgan along with the video recorded by the camera on the rooftop of the hotel at that time.
Jones actually did not miss anything in terms of defense in general. It was expected that the Night Demon would climb up from the outer wall of the hotel. It was just that the Night Demon's hard power broke through the defense line.
Morgan did not vent his anger in front of his men, but he had a dark face throughout the video conversation, which made the head dare not breathe.
After listening to what the head said and watching several video clips, Morgan issued the latest order. Let the head take the bodies of the dead on the rooftop of the hotel back and give an explanation to the families of the fallen soldiers.
To be honest, the risks of this matter are much greater than the benefits, but the most important thing now is the reputation of the F.B.C. If this kind of thing is not done well, what will other living soldiers think?
Recently, there have been many failures. Morgan does not want a large-scale retirement of soldiers in the F.B.C.
On the contrary, B.S.A.A. can be said to be doing better and better. The survivors who were successfully rescued from the tower forces were photographed by the press team arranged by O'Brien when they got off the helicopter.
In fact, O'Brien did not intend to do this at the beginning. It was Sams who contacted O'Brien and persuaded him.
It's a very simple truth. If you don't occupy the high ground of public opinion, others will occupy it. Then no one will hear you when you want to speak out.
So O'Brien, who was persuaded, immediately used his connections to arrange reporters to come.
Not only reporters, but also people from the NATO investigation team and the international investigation team were invited to come and comfort the survivors.
It was a show of politics. Those politicians took pictures, showed themselves, and were happy to get political achievements.
This investigation team is not all such politicians. There are also capable people who can distinguish whether the survivors rescued by B.S.A.A. are real or fake.
So O'Brien's move is to endorse these survivors, to prevent people with ulterior motives from attacking B.S.A.A. for fraud, and to please those powerful people. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone.
He knew a lot of methods, but he was a more upright person, so he would not take the initiative to use them under normal circumstances.
After Sams and Luo Guang finished their phone call, the condolence activities for the survivors also ended.
Then she called Amir, Jed, and the main leaders of the NATO investigation team and the international investigation team to hold a meeting. The reason why the NATO investigation team and the international investigation team were brought in was because this matter was of great importance.
Jill was not here because she felt that it was better to go out and rescue other survivors than to attend such a meeting.
As for the official leader of Turkey, he was also in the NATO investigation team, so Sams did not go to find Suleiman, the head of the Turkish military.
Suleiman and the F.B.C. had something hidden from them, it was just a courtesy.
After hearing Amir's description, everyone understood why Sams wanted to find them, because this showed that the origin of the biochemical crisis in Harlan was not as the F.B.C. had reported before.
Everyone present at the F.B.C. report knew what was going on, but they were afraid of comparison. Compared with the B.S.A.A., the F.B.C.'s performance in this operation was indeed unsatisfactory.
So officials sent by various countries began to think about whether to increase their support for the B.S.A.A. organization.
"Captain Sams, I understand that there are other behind-the-scenes people behind this matter, so what are you going to do next?" asked the person in charge on the Turkish side.
The person on the Lighthouse Country nodded secretly. He also wanted to know this question and was also making his own calculations in his mind.
"It's very simple. Although our B.S.A.A. is an anti-biochemical organization under the United Nations, for the sake of fairness or safety, we hope that the United Nations will form a joint force to carry out military operations against this institute."
Sams has already discussed this matter with Jill, and Jill also understands her idea and has fully entrusted Sams to do it.
Originally, Jill wanted B.S.A.A. to directly eliminate the virus in Harlan City from the source.
But when Samus persuaded him, he mentioned that this was to avoid corruption within B.S.A.A., and also to clear himself from the issue of monopolizing the virus.
The more people involved, the easier it is to supervise each other.
Hearing Samus's answer, representatives from various countries couldn't help but discuss.
"Captain Samus, are the sources of the automatic machine guns and secret passages you added before true?"
Another person raised his hand to ask a question. He suspected that B.S.A.A. had already sent people into the institute, but they wanted to find someone to share the losses because of the huge losses.
"It was the intelligence sent by the intelligence officer who cooperated with the G.I.M.Z. unit." After Samus said this, the relationship between the intelligence officer and G.I.M.Z. was further distanced.
"Why did the people from the G.I.M.Z. unit come here?" Upon hearing this, someone immediately raised a question.
"Because B.S.A.A. has reached a cooperation agreement with G.I.M.Z. Force. Although G.I.M.Z. Force is not as powerful as other official organizations, it has the most extensive experience in combating biohazards in the world today."
As soon as Samus finished speaking, many people nodded in agreement.
The previous record was better than that of the Red Claws, but since the Umbrella Corporation closed down, a large number of small-scale biochemical crises have occurred, and the G.I.M.Z. mercenary team has shown its cost-effectiveness at this time.

The people sent by the governments of various countries are not stupid, and they are naturally well prepared.
Because people from other countries are also there, the people sent can't embarrass their own country, right?
The people of the Lighthouse Country nodded. Perhaps the performance gap between F.B.C. and B.S.A.A. in this mission is so big because there is no professional team support like G.I.M.Z.
And Samus in front of him is the former commander of the Red Claws, and he is an authority against biochemicals.
"Anything else you need to ask?"
After Samus finished speaking, he heard someone going out to make a phone call, obviously to contact the country and prepare to summon people to come together to attack the Harlan City Underground Research Institute.
The head of the Maple Leaf Nation raised his hand and asked, "Our country is far away and cannot send people for the time being, so can we directly use NATO troops?"
Another NATO member country, the Lighthouse Nation, echoed, "That's right, otherwise by the time we gather the team, the people in the institute will have already run away."
How could Samus not know what the other party was thinking? He said, "With such a serious biochemical crisis in Harlan City, the people in the institute would have run away long ago.
If they didn't run away, as long as we don't alert the enemy, the enemy won't run away either."
"We all know the specific location of the institute, and countries that are closer can always leave people from other countries and go to the institute to steal information." Some people also saw what the Lighthouse Nation wanted to do, and immediately brought the matter to the table.
Soon, this matter was no longer divided into factions according to the distance of the country.
The Lighthouse Nation led one faction, other countries led another faction, and some countries expressed neutrality.
Looking at the quarreling people, Amir felt uncomfortable.
Jed saw it and patted Amir's hand.
Samus did not stop those people from making noise, and said to Amir: "Now you understand why I asked you not to tell the location before."
In fact, this is equivalent to giving up the power to control the situation.
But Amir has his own ideas, so when he knew about Samus's arrangement, he did not listen to the other party's arrangement and exposed the location of the institute.
He originally planned to let more national forces investigate the institute, and then gather the power of various countries in the world to dig out the Apocalypse Organization.
But he didn't expect that before it started, the countries quarreled because of interests.
Because the other party was not his subordinate, but just a survivor, Samus did not force the other party to follow his requirements.
Amir can contact other forces at any time to tell the location of the institute.
It is not the lack of information that is worrying, but the inequality. Instead of worrying that Amir only told the intelligence to a few powerful countries, it is better to tell the news to everyone in her sight.
"Sorry." Amir knew that he had taken things for granted and caused the current situation, so he asked, "Captain Sams, don't you need to stop them?"
Looking at the quarreling people, Sams looked at them coldly and said, "Don't worry, they can always coordinate and discuss a plan. These Z-guys are only useful for this."
-----------------
Luo Guang, who temporarily left the situation in Haran City alone, soon arrived at a town.
Under the enthusiastic introduction of the locals, he came to a local restaurant and ate a local delicacy called Iskander kebab.
This kebab is made of cooked lamb or beef chunks and grilled skewers, and then eaten with yogurt. It doesn't taste like lamb, and the taste is a bit special, but it's good overall.
And Jasmine is now settled in this town, and is being blocked in the alley by several gangsters, preparing to rob and make a fortune.
Unlike Luo Guang, the Virgin Mary is now worried about having no money to rely on, and many things have become troublesome, and someone is sending money to her door.
After being beaten, the thugs who were huddled together in the corner watched the Virgin Mary break their daggers and water pipes with her bare hands. They were trembling and begging for mercy.
Jasmine was not a bloodthirsty person. The Harlan virus in her body had been mixed with Luo Guang's Shinra virus, which had largely solved the bloodthirsty nature of the Harlan virus.
After revenge and venting in the institute, her mental state returned to normal and she was not so neurotic.
She then communicated with these thugs very "kindly" and did not send them to the police station afterwards.
In any case, her current situation was not suitable for dealing with the police, so she went to the local gang's lair above these thugs.
For safety reasons, the two researchers did not follow her to rob the gang, but when Jasmine came back, the two researchers in the hotel did not run away.
Dr. Imran Zere and Dr. Allen Camden, the two researchers did not run away in order to cure Jasmine.
The two who were originally afraid of the Virgin who slaughtered the institute, after learning about the Virgin's experience and current appearance, they realized that Jasmine had the right to take revenge on the institute.
Although the two of them did not participate in it, they still felt that they owed Jasmine.
This was due to the personalities of the two people, but the words used by Jasmine in her conversation with the two people also played a big role.
It can be said that she is not the leader of the Void Cult for nothing, and her eloquence is indeed amazing.
As for whether Jasmine can turn back into a human, she does not have much expectation.
The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. It is still unknown whether there are enough equipment or funds in the place they are going to, so it is not good to have too much expectation.
After Luo Guang replenished his energy and satisfied his appetite, he prepared to buy a second-hand car.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Jasmine and the two researchers did not have any documents on them. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is most convenient to drive by yourself.
So he planned to prepare some necessary things for the Virgin Mary and the others.
It is called a test, but you can't really let Jasmine walk such a long way with two helpless researchers with bare hands.
That is not a test, it is a challenge.
After Luo Guang waited for Jasmine to return to the hotel, he went up and knocked on the door.
Jasmine, who had just robbed the gang's lair, was shocked, and the two researchers hid directly, thinking that the gang was seeking revenge.
Luo Guang, who didn't know what the other party had done before, only transmitted the message to Jasmine's brain after knocking on the door.
Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief and got up to open the door.
Luo Guang walked in and took a glance, and asked: "Are these two the researchers you mentioned before?"
"Yes." Jasmine said, and introduced the two to Luo Guang.
"This is Amuro Ray, and the place we are going to is his territory."
"Here are the car keys for you, the white pickup truck parked on the street." Luo Guang also mentioned the license plate.
Seeing a large bundle of banknotes exposed in the big bag on the bed, Luo Guang reached for his wallet and took it out again, and asked: "Two doctors, do you need any special equipment for your experiments?"
The research institute in the Caucasus secret base is actually fully equipped, but just in case the other party needs some special equipment.
If they purchase it early, the two researchers can also start working on the antidote for the Harlan virus as soon as possible.
"I am also a researcher." Jasmine said dissatisfiedly as she watched Luo Guang record the equipment proposed by the two doctors of Imran.
"Yes, yes, Jasmine, what about you?"
Luo Guang did not argue, and then recorded what Jasmine mentioned.
After doing these things, he asked: "It is said that the research institute over at F.B.C. has developed an inhibitor of the Harlan virus, which can greatly slow down the mutation rate. Do you need to study this inhibitor?"
"Inhibitors are not difficult to study, we also have them in our institute, but the antidote is the difficulty."
Perhaps because he felt that Luo Guang was not a professional scientific researcher, Dr. Allen simply explained: "Let's put it this way, developing an antidote for the Harlan virus is equivalent to finding an antidote for the rabies virus."
"The rabies virus vaccine is now available, but the treatment drug has not been developed." Imran added.
Luo Guang thought about this and said, "On the other hand, if rabies is solved, can the Harlan virus also be solved?"
My system can help me in this regard, and combined with the ability of the virus in my body, I may really be able to create a targeted special "drug" specifically for the Harlan virus.
However, in this case, the antidote will be difficult to mass produce.
