I Am Cultivating in the Apocalypse

Chapter 834 - 924: Making Up Stories? Who Can’t Do That?

"I’m not questioning the higher-ups’ decision, but what’s the point of keeping everything secret? Isn’t the ability info supposed to be shared so we can help each other out? Keeping it all secret, is there really some S-level ability here? Of course, I’m not suggesting there’s anything shady going on. After all, our team even clearly outlined Zhang Lang’s S+ level ability and mission objective, so why do we know nothing about an S-level teammate?"

Look, after spending time with someone two-faced, even my words sound shifty.

But you have to admit, they have a point, right? An S+ level isn’t kept secret, so why is an S-level a secret? What kind of privilege do you have!

Ruan Ruan gave a thumbs-up.

With this, even the national elites in the hall nodded in agreement.

Old Zhou was a bit troubled, what could he say?

About this girl’s ability, he wanted to disclose it too, didn’t want secrecy, but the thing is, he really didn’t know anything either. Then he pointed at Yang Yang: "Ahem, well, you kid, explain it." You guys are from the same place, and you’re the one who brought her up, so make it up, and make sure everyone accepts it.

Yang Yang coughed and stood up to speak.

In reality, even though he had spent five or six years with Jing Shu, he still didn’t know what ability Jing Shu had. What was he supposed to say? He thought besides having great strength, Jing Shu seemed ordinary, but in desperate times, she always led everyone to hope?

Alright, he could only fabricate something!

"Actually, keeping it secret is for everyone’s good. Since you are all so curious, I have to tell you that four years ago, during a major mission to the United States, her contribution alone equaled the sum of everyone who went, and she was internally rated an S immediately. In subsequent missions, she saved millions, and her accumulated merit is in the tens of millions.

I’m not saying anything, but most of you have done overseas or classified missions. You know the ways to earn merit, how much merit do you gain from one trip? What value do you bring back to the country?

The synthetic meat and colossal meat were all brought out by her. Any more details and you all need to sign a non-disclosure agreement, as this involves some national secrets. Liu, prepare a non-disclosure agreement for everyone, and I’ll apply to the higher-ups to disclose this person’s information since everyone is questioning..."

Before he finished, someone quickly stood up to refute and clarify.

"Questioning? Hey, hey, hey, I wasn’t questioning, I haven’t spoken from beginning to end, I’m the one who trusts the organization the most."

"Me neither, me neither, it was all that person talking nonsense, the organization evaluated it, and everyone accepted it, I trust the organization."

"So do I."

Non-disclosure agreement? The less you know, the longer you live. Signing a non-disclosure agreement means yearly reviews, and if something goes wrong, it’s all on you. Plus, most importantly... what if it gives a bad impression to the higher-ups?

For a moment, the elite team in the hall quickly stood up, firmly supporting the organization’s decision, trusting the organization’s judgment, and obeying the organization’s arrangements, not wanting to leave a bad impression on the organization at all.

Old Zhou took a sip of wolfberry tea, giving Yang Yang a satisfied look, see, catching human nature’s weakness, this kid can do it, those who understand know that merit can’t be faked, and if a non-disclosure agreement is being signed, a record must be kept.

Having a record, it influences future prospects and allocation problems, just like this task allocation: if you leave a bad, troublesome impression, will you have such good opportunities in the future?

Yang Yang smiled slightly, and after Liu had walked out with a stack of non-disclosure agreements, said: "Well, Liu, no need anymore, everyone is quite reasonable..."

But before he finished, Ruan Ruan had been nudging that sycophant, giving a frantic hint, and the sycophant, determined to kiss up thoroughly, stood up, took a deep breath, and said: "I’ll sign, since nobody cares, I’ll explore the way for everyone."

Yang Yang didn’t mind, "Then sign it, with three reviews a year, and dedicated hypnotists, mnemonic experts will test you, once it’s leaked, your career in Huaxia is probably over. I hope you don’t disclose in any form, after all, we have quite a few talents specialized in confidentiality."

The elite guards shook their heads, showing a regretful expression towards the sycophant, why probe when it’s been said to this extent?

The sycophant signed the non-disclosure agreement, and Yang Yang showed him the report written by Zhen Nantian back then. The ability was unknown, there was no apparent background, but the accumulated merit was truly daunting.

And on the last line, it was clearly written: To avoid attracting attention and being too conspicuous, this person’s clearance level was reduced from S+ to S-level, confidentiality clearance at S+ level.

After reading the information, others were quietly observing the sycophant’s expression, wanting to discern something from his demeanor.

Especially Ruan Ruan, she bit her lip, feeling incredulous, there must be an inside story, once her sycophant realized it, she could blow things up.

But, she was disappointed.

The sycophant’s disbelief and shock ultimately had him fall into his seat, which signified one thing.

The identity of that girl recruiting cigarette factory agents was genuinely incredible!

Old Zhou shook his head at the sycophant and Ruan Ruan, two ignorant young people, unnecessary to foster, slightly disappointed, but he didn’t show it, smiled and said: "Today’s meeting ends here, let Code Seven read out the group assignments and scheduling issues, and I’ll go rest first."

As Old Zhou left, whispers finally started in the meeting room, but everyone became more curious about Jing Shu’s identity.

Code Seven maintained a cold expression, lifted his head, gesturing for Yang Yang to announce the combat plan.

Yang Yang stood up with a smile and said:

"Before announcing the group schedules, let me say a few words, the upcoming journey won’t be peaceful. These years domestically might have been calm, but in the sea, pirates run rampant to seize resources.

In the upcoming days, we’ll pass by Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, those places, don’t be fooled, though they’re poor, the pirates thrive, and we must execute justice for the happiness of the local people. If we encounter pirates..."
