Chapter 765: Chapter 342: Defense Department Research Institute

They are military intelligence special service personnel!

Gu Ji had a grave expression.

Ever since acquiring the knowledge training system of the Blade Anti-Terror Special Operations Team, he finally understood the structure of the intelligence system.

The majority of countries in the world have two sets of intelligence agencies, one affiliated with the military and the other with the government.

Among them, personnel in the military intelligence agency consist of officers; whereas the government intelligence agency typically comprises police officers. The two operate independently, with no hierarchy or command relationships, only cooperating when necessary.

Take our country as an example, the military intelligence agencies that made an appearance in the 10.16 case are managed by the General Staff’s Second and Third Departments, whereas the government intelligence agency is the National Security System.

In the United States, it’s the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Central Intelligence Agency; in Israel, it’s the Oman Military Intelligence Bureau and the Mossad Intelligence and Special Mission Bureau, and in the United Kingdom, it’s MI6 and the Secret Intelligence Bureau.

It is difficult to judge which is more formidable between the two.

The former mainly focuses on military intelligence and, secondly, political intelligence, generally not on economic intelligence. Their sources are more varied, primarily coming from military intelligence brigades, listening and monitoring stations, etc. However, the proportion of using spies to gather intelligence is relatively low;

While the latter places more emphasis on human resources, preferring espionage activities, and occasionally engaging in secret diplomatic activities, focusing on public intelligence analysis and collection, with political, economic, strategic intelligence, and counter-espionage operations as priorities.

Therefore,

In the action in Japan, Chen Zhiyu and her team were mainly investigating the true culprits behind the attack on our research institute and the theft of black technology items, categorized as counter-espionage activities.

In the 10.16 case action, the General Staff’s Third Department intelligence team primarily focused on reclaiming black technology items, aimed at military technology.

It can only be said that their tasks are different.

Another important point is that government intelligence agencies generally comprise civilian personnel and special services, lacking designated regular armed and reconnaissance forces. For any armed actions, they have to rely on SWAT teams or mercenaries for support.

In contrast, the military intelligence agencies have stronger combat capabilities.

The simultaneous deployment of military intelligence systems and mercenaries from various countries proves that the core objective of this scramble is extraordinarily important, perhaps even more so than the ’Heaven’ hallucinogen or foam grenades.

"Gu Ji, what should our next step be? Should we first escort the VIP back to the villa area?"

Seeing that A group security personnel had already escorted everyone out of the exhibition center building, but Gu Ji remained silent, Li Yanan took the initiative to ask.

[Objective: Successfully protect the Xia Kingdom delegation’s safety during the exhibition!]

[The disorder level in the city of Brasilia is escalating!]

[The Brazilian Military Police are deploying en masse!]

[Brazil’s First Special Operations Team is expected to arrive in the capital, Brasilia, in 1 hour and 13 minutes!]

[Intelligence special agents and mercenaries from various countries are rushing to the Brazil Defense Ministry Building!]

[You have been added to the must-kill list by PM Mercenaries and SSS Terrorist Organization!]

[7472 unit members may be in danger!]

[Please make your choice!]

[A. Prevent 7472 members from heading to the Brazil Defense Ministry Building!] (Low difficulty level)

[B. Lead the VIP personnel back to the standby safety zone!] (Medium difficulty level)

[C. Search for missing personnel from Xia National Security!] (Extremely high difficulty level)

Staring at the rapidly scrolling text before him.

Gu Ji’s mind was simultaneously analyzing and processing.

It seems everything is exactly as he initially analyzed; all parties are indeed coming for some mysterious item in the research institute.

The three options represent different potential mission plot directions.

Option A indicates he is entirely giving up on this scramble, but given that Baron was deliberately led to the exhibition center by PM, it’s highly likely the 7472 unit has already been exposed to PM Company’s surveillance.

Even if he opts out of this matter, he will still face being hunted down afterward.

Option B seems the most prudent.

But don’t forget, he is already being targeted by both the PM and SSS organizations. As soon as he returns to the villa, he is bound to face fierce attacks from SSS; when PM gets what they want, they would likely return to finish him off, too.

"No matter what, there’s no escaping it. Might as well settle old and new scores together!"

Gu Ji resolutely chose Option C.

[You chose Option C!]

[You acquired Weapons and Firepower Control Mastery (Large)!]

Yellow [Weapons and Firepower Control Mastery (Large)]: Increases critical weapon attributes such as projectile characteristics by 45%, danger zone and damage radius estimation by 43%, mastery of weapon usage techniques, improvement of firepower suppression and allocation control by 39%, and enhances speed in disrupting enemy firepower control by 36%.

Gu Ji’s eyes sparkled.

This imprint was just perfect for firefight scenarios.

As the yellow light descended, it felt as though Gu Ji’s body’s channels of energy were unblocked, with a surge of weapon knowledge pouring into his mind. From rifles, machine guns, grenades, anti-tank weapons, to landmines and rockets, he knew them thoroughly.

Especially the weapon usage techniques marked in the entry, when combined with [Firearms Mastery], it undoubtedly further enhanced his proficiency in firearms and combat ability!

"Gu Ji?"

Seeing Gu Ji not responding, Gao Bo called out again from the side.

"Xv Guangpeng, contact Mr. Qieu at the embassy immediately, and request him to dispatch 6 to 8 SWAT officers to the villa to protect Puli Group employees. Apart from Li Yaoguang, the rest of Group A should immediately escort the VIP back to the villa using these SSS vehicles."
