Base 102 was very large and the interior was like a maze. It was as big as the underground base of Red Flame, so big that it was terrifying. The main color of the interior was silvery white and the walls were all made of special materials to resist attacks and degradation.
Gu Mang and Bai Sui followed Elder Mo as they passed through the security gates one after another. Surveillance cameras and intelligent identification attack systems could be seen everywhere along the corridor.
Seven years ago, the attack systems at Base 102 were not placed so densely.
All of this security was for Gu Mang.
It was just like when Lu Chengzhou went to the presidential palace of Country K back then. The presidential palace simply listed the risk factor as red and even the army had been guarding outside the presidential palace that day.
No one could tell whose ’face’ was bigger between these two big bosses.
Elder Mo seemed to be thinking about what happened back then as his pace was slow. "Young Lady, do you see those laser weapons?"
Gu Mang did not answer. She did not even glance at them.
Elder Mo laughed. He did not mind that she did not respond. He continued speaking as he pleased. "These were all installed after you left Jijing Island. You were the one who made us realize the inadequacy of Base 102."
Gu Mang pulled off her mask and turned her head slowly. Then, she smiled. "Is that so? Then you should pay some tuition fees."
Her words were simply off-putting.
Elder Mo’s eyes suddenly sank. He stared at Gu Mang for a few seconds. Without saying a word, he then averted his gaze and walked forward in silence.
Bai Sui glanced at Gu Mang and there was a tinge of delight in his eyes.

At the observation deck of the assessment area.
Huo Zhi, the Elders’ Association, the four big family clans, and the directors of the seven research institutes were all there. The representatives from the Bai family were Old Master Bai and Bai Zhang. Gu Si sat beside Old Master Bai.
From the Ye family there was Ye Junci and her niece.
From the Bi family there was Old Master and the predecessor of the Bi family.
As for the Leng family, Old Master Leng brought the Young Master from the Leng family with him. Leng Xuan was there as well. She was in a wheelchair and she wore a mask and a cap. Her entire body was well-covered up.
Her aura was much gloomier than before. She stared straight ahead at the screen. Leng Xuan had been at Base 102 for many years. She had many supporters and her influence was very deep-rooted.
If Gu Mang wanted to replace her, she had to win the approval of everyone gathered to watch the assessment.
She knew her subordinates very well. She was just waiting to see how Gu Mang would be delivered by the Elders’ Association to her so that she could have her revenge.
The assessment venue for today was on the periphery. There was basically no access to any secrets, in accordance with the assessment criteria laid out by the person in charge of Base 102.
Gu Mang was going to be assessed in the five major areas: computing, mathematics, medical skills, intelligence code conversion, and combat skills.
Elder Mo took Gu Mang to the computer room of the Intelligence Department. It was the most confidential intelligence agency on Jijing Island. The area that they let Gu Mang take the assessment in today was a small corner of the computer room.
There was a lot of space inside and there was a semi-circular arc wall directly in front. It was 3m tall and 20m wide. The entire curved wall was covered with digital surveillance screens.
There was a glass room every three meters away on both sides, which surrounded the computer room. Blue-green light filtered out from the glass room.
The middle area was huge and the number of electronic devices placed in the room was breathtaking. The highly efficient machines provided intelligence for Jijing Island day and night.
