"More enemy traces have been discovered outside the base, and a drone has crashed nearby, seemingly coming from the enemy's side."
Han Lin's eyes sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "Lead the way, let's go take a look now."
The team quickly arrived at the scene, where the wreckage of the drone was still emitting black smoke, with scattered parts flying everywhere. The team members had already surrounded the drone to prevent any further accidents.
Han Lin bent down and picked up a piece of wing debris, noticing several blurry letters engraved on it: "It seems they're very close to our defenses."
"Captain, what should we do?" one of the team members asked.
Han Lin raised his head, his gaze resolute: "Notify all team members to strengthen their vigilance, especially the outer perimeter defense. At the same time, have the intelligence team intensify their analysis of the drone's data to see if they can find any useful information."
"Understood!" The team member saluted and hurriedly left to relay the order.
At this moment, Leia also crouched down and carefully examined every part of the drone. "Something's not right here." She pointed to an inconspicuous panel with a damaged spot. "This panel looks like it was deliberately vandalized."
Han Lin nodded in agreement: "It's very likely to be to cover something up."
The two exchanged a glance and, without uttering a word, began to remove the panel. A few minutes later, the panel was finally fully opened, revealing a small storage device hidden inside.
"This is..." Han Lin picked up the storage device and said in surprise, "This should be enemy data."
“That’s right, we must get this to the technical department as soon as possible so they can analyze its contents,” Leia said. “At the same time, we must be extra careful; the mole might be monitoring our every move.”
"Let's go, back to base immediately." Han Lin put away the storage device, got up and walked towards the base.
Upon returning to base, Han Lin immediately handed the storage device over to the technical department and instructed them to process it as soon as possible. Then, she and Leia returned to the command center to report the latest developments to Zhao De.

Chapter 965 Don't Let Your Guard Down
After listening to the report, Han Lin frowned and pondered: "It seems that the enemy's offensive is much fiercer than expected. We must hurry and not give them any chance."
Zhao De nodded and said firmly, "I understand. I will continue to strengthen patrols around the perimeter and closely monitor every suspicious lead."
"Okay, you can go ahead." Han Lin nodded. "Oh, and by the way, please remind everyone to be careful, especially not to go out alone at night."
Zhao De and Leia agreed and turned to leave the command room. As they reached the door, they suddenly heard a soft sound behind them.
Zhao De turned around and saw the mysterious man reappear outside the command room, his expression calm but meaningful: "Be careful with everything, a storm is coming."
“We will be prepared,” Zhao De replied.
Leia frowned, a hint of worry in her eyes: "Do you know something?"
The mysterious man smiled slightly, his eyes unfathomable: "I've said all I can say. Now it's up to you." With that, he turned and left, his figure disappearing without a trace at the end of the corridor.
After exchanging a glance, Zhao De and Leia left the command room together. "What should we do?" Leia asked.
"Follow Zhao De's instructions first, then slowly look for clues. By the way, we need to keep everyone at the base on high alert, especially at night," Zhao De said, and the two quickly walked towards the conference room.
Inside the meeting room, the team members were already busy, some studying the deployment plan, others analyzing the data in the newly discovered storage device. Seeing the captain enter, everyone stopped what they were doing.
Zhao De scanned the team members in the room and said in a serious tone, "Everyone, please be quiet. We just found some new clues from a crashed enemy drone. The technical department is currently analyzing the data. In addition..." She paused slightly and continued, "there is also a mole lurking in our team."
The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this. A young female team member timidly raised her hand and asked, "Captain, how can we protect ourselves?"
“Stay vigilant and communicate frequently with each other. Most importantly, ensure that all operational plans are kept strictly confidential,” Leia added. “If anything seems amiss, report it to me and Zhao De immediately.”
At this moment, a team member in charge of technical work stood up and said, "Reporting to the two captains, we have just retrieved some files from that small storage device. There is a detailed map of the base marking several important locations, as well as a research report on the personal backgrounds and habits of several of our key members."
“What?” Zhao De’s eyes widened in surprise. “They know so much about us… This is terrifying.”
“However, this intelligence is also beneficial to us. At least now we know who the enemy is most interested in,” Leia analyzed.
“Hmm…you’re right.” Zhao De pondered for a moment. “Then let’s make good use of this. I’ll personally lead a team out to scout the surrounding area; you can stay at the base and oversee the overall situation.”
As night fell, Zhao De assembled a group of agile and quick-witted team members to prepare for a night patrol. "Everyone must be extra careful tonight, don't let your guard down," she reminded them again before they left.

Chapter 966 Remember to Protect Yourself
The team members nodded in understanding; each of them grasped the importance of this mission. As night deepened, the lights around the base dimmed, leaving only a few warning lights emitting a faint red glow. Zhao De led his team through the defensive lines, heading towards the outermost safe zone.
"Keep quiet and try not to attract attention," Zhao De commanded in a low voice. Her figure was almost invisible in the darkness, moving silently like a ghost.
Just then, a faint sound came from the bushes on the left. "Stop!" Zhao De quickly raised her hand, signaling everyone to halt. She cautiously approached the source of the sound and saw a small wild animal scurrying past. After the false alarm, Han Ling felt a little relieved.
“Keep moving,” she whispered, but with increased vigilance. Just as everyone was preparing to continue their operation, Leia sent an urgent message via radio: “Captain! We just received a warning letter from an unidentified source saying that the enemy may launch an attack tonight.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao De immediately tensed up: "Okay, I understand. Everyone, please be on your guard! Be ready for battle at any time."
The team quickened their pace, completing the reconnaissance of the surrounding environment as quickly as possible while ensuring safety. Meanwhile, Leia, remaining at the base, was also working intensively on defense—increasing the number of night patrols, strengthening vigilance, and requiring everyone to be on high alert.
In this tense and uncertain atmosphere, time seemed to pass particularly slowly. When the first rays of dawn pierced the darkness, everyone breathed a sigh of relief—at least for now, nothing had happened. Zhao De led his exhausted team back to base to report the situation.
Shortly after entering the gate, a young female team member ran up to us: "Captain! We just discovered something unusual in the surveillance video."
After following the female team member to the monitoring room, a video appeared on the large screen: in a grove of trees in the northeast corner of the base, several unidentified figures seemed to be quietly approaching and had set up some kind of device.
Upon seeing this, Zhao De immediately gave instructions: "Send this video to the technical team to analyze what it is; also, notify all team members to assemble for a meeting immediately!"
A few minutes later, the conference room was packed with people waiting for further guidance and information. Zhao De stood at the front and calmly briefed everyone on the current situation: "We have discovered conclusive evidence of a potential threat. We now need to take a more proactive approach to deal with the impending crisis."
"So how exactly do we do it?" someone asked.
“First, we will send out several special operations teams to destroy all the traps and surveillance equipment set up by the enemy,” Leia replied. “At the same time, we must also find out as soon as possible who leaked information about us to the other side.”
Just then, an alarm suddenly went off outside—clearly, the uninvited guests had arrived sooner than expected. Faced with this unexpected turn of events, Zhao De quickly stood up: "Alright everyone, our moment of truth has arrived! Please return to your positions according to the previous plan! Remember to protect yourselves!"
Chapter 967 Will there be a second sneak attack?
Chapter 967 There Will Be No Second Sneak Attack
As soon as the words were spoken, the team members immediately scattered and went to their respective posts, filling the base with busy yet orderly figures. Zhao De personally led a small team towards the location where the anomaly had been discovered…
"Is everything ready?" Zhao De asked, turning back one last time before rushing out of the base.
The team members responded in unison with a firm and powerful "Yes!", demonstrating a fearless determination and courage.
Just then, a series of explosions suddenly rang out in the distance. Clearly, the enemy had begun their attack. Zhao De took a deep breath, then decisively led his team into the darkness…
"Be careful!" Zhao De warned, his eyes fixed on the gradually brightening horizon ahead.
"Captain, the enemy has set up an ambush to the north. We can outflank them from the south and catch them off guard," Deputy Captain Lin Yi quickly suggested. Zhao De nodded slightly in agreement: "Move quickly and be careful to conceal your movements."
In the darkness, the group moved silently like phantoms, making the most of natural cover to avoid the enemy's sight. The world outside the base was eerily quiet, as if every blade of grass held its breath, awaiting the impending showdown. They soon approached a dense thicket of bushes, one of the areas where unusual activity had been detected earlier.
Zhao De waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop. "This is the location of the signal source. Split into two teams. Lin Yi and I will lead one team to advance from the front, while Leia, you will lead the remaining members to flank the enemy and form a pincer attack." As soon as he finished speaking, everyone tacitly split into two teams according to the plan. There were not many words spoken, only the occasional soft sound of clothes rubbing against each other broke the surrounding silence.
Just as Zhao De and his team cautiously approached their target, a piercing sound suddenly tore through the night. "Who's there?!" The other side seemed to have noticed the commotion as well; a person in heavy military uniform peeked out from behind cover. Zhao De's heart tightened, and she instantly accelerated forward, throwing a throwing knife at the enemy in mid-air. Almost simultaneously, her team launched an attack, and amidst the clash of bullets and melee weapons, the scene instantly descended into chaos.
Just as the battle reached its climax, Leia, leading her team in a flanking maneuver, had already reached the enemy's flank. "Move!" she commanded curtly. Several figures clad in black combat uniforms moved like ghosts among the trees, putting unexpected pressure on the enemy. As more and more reinforcements arrived at the front, the enemy, who had initially held a slight advantage, began to retreat steadily.
Just then, another violent explosion rang out in the distance. This was clearly not an attack launched by their side—a new situation was unfolding! "Damn it, they might be trying to destroy our infrastructure!" Lin Yi said, frowning. "Never mind, let's deal with these immediate problems first!" Zhao De replied decisively, immediately directing his team to continue pressuring the remaining enemy. A few minutes later, under the combined attack from two directions, the remaining attackers finally chose to surrender or scatter, leaving only a scene of devastation on the battlefield.
"Now is not the time to rest!" Having just calmed the battlefield, Zhao De turned to his panting but still spirited men and shouted, "Immediately return to the main base to assess the damage and strengthen defenses. Also, dispatch several rapid reaction force teams to search the surrounding area for any hidden enemies, ensuring there won't be a second surprise attack."

Chapter 968 We Cannot Give Up the Resistance
After saying this, the resilient and decisive female commander led her wounded but still highly motivated comrades on their journey home. Along the way, they could see many facilities damaged to varying degrees, and even one building with thick smoke billowing from its roof…
Just as the team was about to step into the main base gate, a hurried call suddenly came through the silent communication headset: "This is the central control room! Multiple incoming missiles have been detected heading in our direction... estimated impact time is thirty seconds! Requesting emergency evacuation instructions!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed. "How is this possible? How could they possess precision strike capabilities so quickly?" Beyond surprise, an incredulous anger filled the air. "Immediately activate all electromagnetic shielding systems to interfere with their positioning equipment, and initiate anti-missile interception measures. All non-combat personnel must immediately evacuate to the underground refuge level!" At this critical moment, Zhao De remained calm and composed, issuing a series of instructions. "Lin Yi, come with me. The rest of you proceed according to the previous plan."
After saying these words, the brave female warrior once again stepped into the unknown danger without hesitation...
"We must hold this place!" Facing the impending great crisis, Zhao De's resolute eyes shone with an unwavering determination.
As Zhao De and Lin Yi hurried towards the control room, the main base was already in a state of tense yet orderly chaos. Engineers rushed between various control panels, and technicians were debugging the emergency-activated electromagnetic interference devices. Everyone knew that time was running out.
"Captain Han!" A technician immediately stepped forward to report upon seeing the two of them appear, "The anti-missile interception system has been activated, but we are unsure of its success rate, since the other side is using a new type of missile."
Zhao De nodded to indicate that he understood: "Just do your best. Now we need to seize every second!"
At that moment, Leia's voice came through the headset: "The northern area has been safely cleared. As instructed, begin searching the surrounding area for any signs of further enemy ambush."
“Good job. Continue to increase patrols. Report any unusual activity to me immediately,” Zhao De replied quickly.
The two finally arrived at the central control room, where the screens clearly displayed the incoming threat markers. "Report on the current situation?" she asked directly.
"Sir, the estimated contact time is... twenty seconds," a young officer said, his voice trembling slightly. He was clearly encountering this situation for the first time and couldn't help but appear somewhat flustered.
"Calm down!" Zhao De interrupted sharply. "Tell me specifically which facilities can be used to strengthen our existing defenses?"
This seemed to have an immediate effect. The officer immediately put aside his fear and regained his professional demeanor, beginning to explain in detail: "We have several mobile anti-aircraft artillery units that can be deployed in a short time; we also have some fixed laser turrets that are not yet fully operational but can be used urgently."
Upon hearing this, Zhao De immediately issued the order: "Mobilize all available resources to prepare for battle! Even if there is only a one percent chance of success, we must not give up the fight!"

Meanwhile, the broadcast system was continuously reminding non-combat personnel within the base to evacuate to safer locations. However, at this critical moment, an unexpected voice suddenly rang out on the channel: "This is 'Ghost Squad.' We have located and successfully destroyed the enemy launcher's hiding place. This should temporarily alleviate the pressure from the air. Please confirm the situation as soon as possible."
