The base was, to begin with, an underground chamber, and as a deep subterranean room that went down more than twenty meters, an exhaust system was essential.
And it had to be good!
Just here alone, there were five air outlets, and once the fans were shut down, it was sufficient for people to leave the base!
“I won’t go!”
Linus White declared proudly, “This is where all the military-industrial personnel have poured their life’s work. If we leave, what about the equipment?”
Zhang Kai clearly knew early on that such troubles would arise.
Obviously, in the eyes of these scientific researchers, the newly created Photolithography Machine was far more important than their very lives!
“That’s right!”
“We won’t leave!”
“We swear to share the fate of the base!”
“We have given too much for this result. Now that we have succeeded, do you want us to leave here, to skulk away and live?”
“Zhang Kai, Mr. Floss, this is not just our personal honor, it is the hope for the rise of America!”
“…”
A group of scientific researchers stubbornly refused the request with tears in their eyes!
At that moment, they would rather die than be deserters!
Scholars, too, have their pride!
They absolutely did not want to be scolded behind their backs in the days to come!
Especially Linus White, for whom the Photolithography Machine that stretched dozens of meters across and filled numerous rooms was his commitment to America!
It was his commitment to his mentor, Hunter Jones!
It was also the sole evidence that could clear him of the charge of treason!
Letting him leave would be no different from killing him!
“Get moving!”
Zhang Kai shouted, and then a group of special agents and Imperial Guards members began to forcibly move the resisting scientists towards the air outlets!
“Zhang Kai, you bastard!”
“Quick, let your men release me!”
Linus White’s voice was torn with fury as he berated, “You have no right to do this to us!”
“In terms of military rank, in terms of seniority, I rank above you!”
“This is insubordination!”
As the Deputy Director of the American Academy of Sciences and the top genius of American Military Industry, Linus White naturally held a civilian military rank.
Perhaps he did not even know how to handle a gun, but his military achievements were not to be ignored!
Otherwise, the Eastern Alliance would not covet him!
“Release me, I say!”
“Let me share the fate with the Photolithography Machine!”
“Zhang Kai, if you do this, I will surely take you to a military court!”
“Just you wait to be imprisoned!”
“…”
All the scientific researchers were resisting with all their might!
But against professional soldiers, they really had no strength to fight back!
Moreover, what could one person do when being kidnapped and pushed towards the air outlets by three to five people?
“I will take full responsibility for all this!”
“But the first order I received was to ensure your safety!”
Zhang Kai’s voice boomed loudly, “You are America’s merit, so let us rough folks handle sacrifices!”
That’s right!
The team led by Linus White had already brought their research to this point!
Even if they couldn’t protect the Photolithography Machine in the base this time, at least…
If the entire research team was safe, the next Photolithography Machine would be easier to develop!
“George Lee!”
“Daniel Lee!”
“Hurry up and lead the team, take all the documents, take them all!”
“And you, make sure to move them to safety!”
“The rest of you, get ready with the grenades!”
Zhang Kai’s face hardened, his tone carrying undeniable authority!
Anyway, he did not know which of those three women was friend or foe, but since they entered the secret base without permission, they could only be treated as enemies!
If firearms were ineffective,
then they would use bombs; he could not believe that the three women outside, engrossed in intense battle, would not fear the explosives!
He would do everything in his power to protect the integrity of the equipment inside the base!
Even if it meant throwing himself and his men into the fray as human bombs, he would not hesitate!
