I am the leader, Hong Tian Shen Zun.
After Su Wu finished speaking, he quietly looked at the group of black-clothed warriors present.
The Devil's Castle.
Chen Rui struggled to maintain a sorrowful and distressed expression as he left the chairman's office. It was not until he returned to his own office and closed the door behind him that he finally sat down on his office chair. His eyes still contained an indissoluble sadness.
But he couldn't hold back in the end, a slight curve formed at the corners of his mouth, and his facial features gradually relaxed. That face as cold and stern as a rock transformed into a blossoming trumpet flower in the blink of an eye. A restrained laughter squeezed out from his throat, gradually escalating into an unrestrained and hearty laughter.
他笑得是如此开心，以至于笑弯了腰，笑出了眼泪，笑得肚子疼得受不了，不得不握起拳头捶打桌面，一下又一下仿佛没个尽头。
Happiness has its reasons, which are so simple and yet so wonderfully remarkable: he inherited the two most important and formidable rivals for the throne, and almost overnight, both fell in the northwest! Translated text:
Is there anything more beautiful than this in the world?
Chen Rui thinks there isn't.
No one knows the situation of his brothers and sisters better than Chen Rui. Over the years, he has relied on his power and wealth to arrange countless people to monitor his siblings. So Chen Rui is well aware that once Chen Qi and Chen Huihui are gone, the others are not even worth worrying about.
Even if the chairman intentionally supports other siblings to balance him, Chen Rui knows that their talents and mindset are not on the same level as his, and they can never become his true opponents.
In other words, if both Chen Qi and Chen Huihui die, his position as the heir will be as solid as Mount Tai. After the establishment of Tianyi Group, he will immediately become the crown prince, until he takes control of the empire and becomes the emperor of the North Continent!
No, he not only wants to be the emperor of the Northern Continent, but also the emperor of the entire world!
Thinking about the dark and furious expression on the chairman's face when they met just now, Chen Rui's joy in her heart soared even higher. The chairman deliberately supported Chen Qi and Chen Huihui to contend with him, dividing his power and suppressing his influence. What will be the outcome?
竹篮打水一场空！
If she could see the chairman eating humble pie, Chen Rui would feel as if she had consumed honey.
Of course, the chairman felt uncomfortable and naturally needed to vent his anger. Just now, Chen Rui had been severely reprimanded, implying one thing: Nine superhuman test subjects have emerged in the Northwest, and Tianyi Group had been completely unaware. What on earth does the Special Operations Department, which he is in charge of, do?
The offense was so serious that Chen Rui was punished without exception.
The punishment was severe, as the Chairman took back the Outbound Department, a powerful and well-funded department of utmost importance, from his control.
Having lost the special operations department, Chen Rui felt like he had lost a piece of his heart.
"How did the Northwest suddenly have nine superhuman test subjects?" After the initial joy, Chen Rui began pondering this question. In this matter, he had indeed made a mistake and performed very poorly. Keep all the @ matches.
Chen Rui cannot accept the fact that he is incompetent and is unwilling to admit his failures. Therefore, even though he is no longer in charge of the Special Operations Department, he is still trying his best to figure out the reasons and understand where he went wrong.
After a moment of contemplation, Chen Rui remembered a daily intelligence report from the Special Operations Department's Northwest Bureau, which mentioned the discovery of several suspicious vessels in the waters outside of Cali Bay.
There is a lot of daily intelligence in the Special Operations Department, and Chen Rui simply cannot go through them one by one. Generally, he only deals with important matters that are prioritized at the front of the report. He doesn't have time to pay attention to the trivial matters behind, and even if he looks, it is just a quick glance.
That piece of information is just listed among various trivial information and hasn't caught Chen Rui's special attention.
During this period, Chen Rui's focus on the northwest mainly lies on the power struggle between Chen Qi, Chen Huihui, and their followers, as well as the frontal military operations. She doesn't show much concern for news beyond the base and cities in the northwest.
Several possible types of ships on the sea could be involved in significant events. At most, they could be smuggling vessels or cargo ships associated with civilian factions. Chen Rui has come across this kind of intelligence many times.
However, with the target being a superhuman test subject, investigating suspicious locations from a reverse perspective is like standing in the view of God. Many previously overlooked details resurface, catching Chen Rui's attention.
He pulled up the report from the information terminal, opened it in front of him, and quickly flipped to that clue.
However, after reading it carefully once, Chen Rui shook her head in disappointment.
The report itself is very brief, with no details to critique. It is evident that the special agents overseeing those ships also did not attach much importance to it, as they merely recorded and reported it as a routine duty.
“如果那些超人实验体真是从加利湾登陆的......除了东面大陆的汇丰集团，南大陆的摩根集团与西大陆的南极鹅集团，都有可能是他们的来处。”
一想到另外几大集团，陈芮眼中便流露出浓烈的轻蔑与厌恶之色，就像是被一群苍蝇扑到了脸上。
事到如今，天蚁集团根本不惧怕其它集团，南极鹅集团、汇丰集团与他们远隔重洋，大军调派难度不小，想要登陆更是难上加难，顶多使使绊子。
As for the Morgan Group in the southern continent... they are the laggards among the four major groups. They may be able to deploy their army northward, but as long as the Tianyi Group deploys a small number of elite forces to guard the narrow border between the two continents, the opponent will have no chance of crossing over.
The Tianqi Group, which now has a team of cultivators, is not something the Morgan Group can imitate.
"The nine superhuman test subjects were most likely supported by both the Antarctica Penguin Group and the Morgan Group in aiding the resistance army... Hmph, they are just a bunch of clownish jumpers. Can they overturn the heavens?" With this in mind, Chen Rui was already making plans.
Tianyi Group is facing a situation where it is outnumbered three to one. It is definitely not a favorable situation, so Chen Rui plans to suggest to the chairman to form an alliance with one of the groups and implement a strategy of distant relations and close attacks. First, they will unify the northern continent and conquer the southern continent, and then aim for the western continent.
Regardless, the battle in the northwest must not be lost. Both rebel forces need to be eliminated immediately." Despite not being directly involved, Chen Rui, from the Special Operations Department, could still try to influence the situation in the northwest.
Now that Chen Qi has been captured and Chen Hui's whereabouts are unknown, it is impossible for them to escape, especially with nine superhuman experimental subjects in the resistance army. So, wouldn't the command of the Northwest Army ultimately fall into the hands of Chen Rui?
"Now that General Chen Qi is gone, who else can be capable of this position? Except me, who else?" Chen Rui stood up, poured a glass of wine, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the magnificent neon lights of the Devil's City. A thousand ambitions surged in his heart.
It is impossible for the chairman to choose a candidate for the position of Northwest Commander-in-Chief from among his children, other than Chen Rui. The siblings either lack the ability or are too young to take on this important responsibility.
The current situation in the ongoing Northwest battle has become extremely dangerous, deteriorating in a decadent direction. What Tianyi Group needs now is a strong and capable person to oversee the war situation.
Tianyi Group must quickly reverse the situation and pacify the northwest in order to prevent the war from reaching a stalemate. Otherwise, the cities in the northern continent may perceive Tianyi Group as weak and take advantage of the situation to establish their own forces and resist against Tianyi Group.
参与过军事，了解战场，在军队中有影响力，且有足够的威望压服军队的，只有他陈芮。
一想到自己马上就可以掌握军权，陈芮喜滋滋地喝了一大口酒。
All previous efforts and struggles were in vain, but unexpectedly, the appearance of nine superhuman test subjects from the enemy's army made it happen. It's really a case of obtaining something with little effort, just like finding what you've been searching for in the least expected place. Chen Rui feels grateful and would like to thank the Antarctic Goose Group and Morgan Group.
"Wu Mei is really foolish, San Di is even more foolish to the point of absurdity. For the sake of a little military merit, one dares to venture alone into danger, and the other truly dares to issue such military orders, which is truly hard to comprehend. Isn't this because they are afraid that I cannot control the Northwest Army?"
Chen Rui also wants to thank Chen Qi and Chen Huihui.
If it weren't for Chen Huihui wanting to take credit for a major military achievement and gain more benefits after the war, why would she bring people to assassinate Li Shengli and others? If Chen Qi didn't choose to compete with him and instead formed an alliance with Chen Huihui, how could he approve of such a pointless action?
If there were no such "if", even with nine superhuman experimental subjects in the resistance army and the Jinshan Command Headquarters being raided, Meier, Meisan, and others protecting the breakout, at least Chen Qi and Chen Huihui would not both perish in the Northwest.
"Now, it's good. I have no opponents within the conglomerate, so I don't need to worry about anyone sabotaging my plans anymore. A powerful conglomerate should not have infighting. Only then can we avoid internal conflicts and present a united front externally!"
Chen Rui drank up the wine in her glass, feeling particularly refreshed. "If it weren't for the power struggle within the party, how could there be such disunity among the troops? Why did the Northwest campaign turn out like this, with so many casualties and setbacks?" Translated text:
"If it weren't for Chen Qi and Chen Huihui occupying too much of my energy, I could have focused all my thoughts on important matters. What are just two rebel forces? The outcome would be determined soon!"
"Party strife... is a great calamity!"
深吸一口气，陈芮双眼变得清明，他知道，接下来是他大展拳脚，以雷霆手段为天蚁集团扫平建国障碍的时候了。
董事长把特勤部从他手里拿走，虽然是怪罪他失职，但也是为了给他担任西北大军总司令做铺垫。
After all, his current power is already substantial. If he doesn't remove some of it, and then gains control of a large amount of military authority, it will be too difficult to maintain checks and balances in the future.
While Chen Ruichang was envisioning the future, planning his military campaign upon assuming the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Northwestern Army, his secretary suddenly knocked on the door. Please note that the translation provided above may not be entirely accurate or coherent.
“什么事？”陈芮俯瞰着脚下无边无际的魔鬼城，头也不回地问。
秘书的声音有些发颤：“三公子跟五小姐......他们回来了！”
"
What?!
They have been evading pursuers all the way and have gone through hardships. They just returned to the city of Gold Mountain. If it hadn't been for the timely rescue of the army, they would very likely have been killed by the superhuman rebels chasing from behind...
Chen Ruiru felt a sudden blow to the head and his vision went black for a moment. He struggled to steady himself, trying to maintain his composure. With a fierce glare in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Has the chairman received the news?"
If not, he still has room for remedy, even if it may tarnish his own reputation. He should try to take advantage of the weakened state of Chen Qi and Chen Huihui to attempt to kill them both or have the Resistance Army's superhuman experiment capture them again!
"The chairman is already aware, and has just ordered Miss Wu and young Master Zhang to immediately take a military plane back to the Devil's City for a report..." The secretary dared not raise their head to meet Chen Rui's fury.
What she didn't know was that Chen Rui's anger had completely vanished as soon as she uttered those words.
In that moment, Chen Rui felt as if the sky had darkened, and he felt powerless all over.
He took two steps back, leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window, and muttered with lifeless eyes: "Why, why were they able to come back... Is the group going to be embroiled in internal struggles again, and continue with the infighting?"
"Heavens have no eyes!"
Chen Rui struggled to maintain a sorrowful and distressed expression as he left the chairman's office. It was not until he returned to his own office and closed the door behind him that he finally sat down on his office chair. His eyes still contained an indissoluble sadness.
