enemies

with the changes put in place by adams, the exploration of the base advanced well

veteran soldiers faced the infected and the losses were almost zero, it of course took time for all this to be done

while he was working, adams heard the sound of a cell phone coming from his desk drawer, he knew fully well that there was no phone in this drawer except the one that skinner had left

it was by searching through the general's documents that adams had found this cell phone which could make phone calls to the other side of the planet ambrasia, unfortunately michael had killed the general without first questioning him and we didn't know what this phone was for

adams did not have time to call a team to track down the contact details of the person who called and perhaps the person on the other end of the phone would not call again after the first ring

adams therefore decided to pick up and at the same time headed towards the team which takes care of all that is tracking and technology

the person who called said: hello general, how are you?

Adams said : General Skinner unfortunately died killed by an infected, I am the new head of the base Mr. Adams

The person on the other end of the line remained silent for 1 minute which seemed like an eternity to Adams.

she then said: hello mr adams, are you the ex secretary adams from country A?

adams replied: yes that's right

I apologize for not being able to give you my name but you can call me Mr. Black

Adams in turn took 30 seconds and did not speak, the negotiations had already started and it was necessary to show firmness in this situation

are you there mr adams? Asked Mister Black

yes mister black, I apologize but I have sorted out certain documents, as you can imagine the death of the general Skinner has greatly affected the proper functioning of the base and I have a lot of work ahead of me to fill tha hole

Mr. Black: yes, the general was a great man, honest and fair, wise and thoughtful, his death is a great loss for your base
​

adams: yes and I apologize in advance for my question but where do you know General Skinner from? You see his death was too sudden and he did not give any instructions before his death, so I do not know what the nature of your relationship with him

Mr. Black: yes it is understandable and let me help you, I am part of country B (country B was one of the main rival of country A and was separated from country A by 800 miles of sea

the two countries had a fierce hatred and had gone to war several times but after the invention of the antimatter bomb, the two countries fought only economically )

adams: hmmm, I see, are you doing well with this unfortunate pandemic?

Mr. Black: yes, I thank you for your concern but we are doing well, we have recovered half of our military bases and have even started to attack the different cities taken by the infected

Adams knew that it was impossible to recover the cities, nor even to recover the different military bases in such a short time, but he still played along

adams: I congratulate you for your extraordinary work, country B is indeed showing us how to react to this unfortunate infection

Mr. Black: I thank you once again for your words, I am the head of diplomacy for country B, I would like to ask you to leave this phone near you because I will contact you in 3 days to exchange with you

I think we can help each other to get through this difficult period and be a step ahead of other countries

adams: of course, how could I say no to your proposal, I would keep my phone close to me as you asked

Mr. Black: good Mr. Adams, I wish you a good day

adams: you too mr black

Adams then asked the team who was responsible for locating mister black where the person on the other end of the phone was. The team responded that he was indeed in country B.

so Mr. Black didn't lie but why did he contact General Skinner? will country B take advantage of this pandemic to invade country A? did he try to contact other bases? Were there traitors among the members of this base?

This phone call greatly alarmed Adams because if other countries succeeded in infiltrating the various bases, or even captured them, then country A would lose a lot.

listening to his instincts adams contacted the four other bases (their number increased to 4 shortly after skinner's death) and no one said they were contacted by country B but one of the bases claimed to have been contacted by the red federation, a private military group who wanted to annex the base, they asked base numbers 3 to surrender because they had among them what they say was the savior of humanity

base number 3 naturally did not take them seriously but several clashes followed with the red federation

adams didn't know if he could believe the leaders of the other 4 bases or not but he organized an emergency meeting where he told everyone what had happened

Michael also took all this seriously, if a base with more than 10,000 soldiers falls into the hands of the enemy, then several potential power holders could change sides which would be a problem for his plan

he therefore decided to accelerate the training of the special unit and of Morgan and the others

he also asked adams to make swords and shields

Adams replied that he had no means of doing that and that they had to retake the city of the Green Horn for that.
