Bai Yunpeng immediately said, "Notify all senior staff to return to the Central Operations Room at once to wargame the new tactics!"

Bai Xianya had no time to think about her bath anymore. She quickly notified everyone, changed into her military uniform, and rushed back.

After a sleepless night in the Central Operations Room, the senior staff were excited as one piece of good news after another came in.

"Only the last combat environment simulation to go!"

"The previous sixty-seven have all passed; it's all down to this one!"

Everyone gathered in front of the war AI and watched as the progress bar for the sixty-eighth combat environment simulation reached the end. Finally, the progress bar completed. With a DING, an alert sounded, and the war AI announced, "Simulation complete. We are victorious."

"YEAH!"

The entire operations room erupted, with everyone cheering and raising their arms in jubilation.

Bai Xianya and Bai Yunpeng found it somewhat unbelievable. Bai Xianya smiled and said, "We were too fixated on solving the problem at the tactical level. In fact, our previous tactics were quite correct; they just needed some added assurances."

"Our equipment can provide that assurance."

The message later sent by "Idol Actor" was simple: for the "Sacrificial Gambit" tactic, provide strong equipment protection for the small unit acting as bait. Preferably, heavy-duty Mecha carried by combat vehicles.

When acting as bait, the unit shouldn't deploy the Mecha initially. They should wait until the Insect Mutants take the bait, then the bait unit suits up in the Mecha and holds their ground until allied forces eliminate the Insect Mutants.

Heavy-duty Mecha have adequate armor protection to withstand the attacks of Insect Mutants for over half an hour.

Simply equipping basic combat units with enough heavy-duty Mecha would suffice. Tactical problems could then be solved with equipment.

Moreover, heavy-duty Mecha were not widely used, so the military didn't have many. However, with the Confederation's strong industrial capability, they could be quickly produced and issued if necessary.

The military could also afford the cost.

In the past, the military had not used heavy-duty Mecha en masse against the Alien Insect Race because their mobility was poor. Against the nimble Alien Insect Race, they struggled to achieve outstanding results.

However, in the "Sacrificial Gambit" tactic, heavy-duty Mecha only need to serve a protective and sweeping role.

Once the Insect Mutants are lured in, they become frenzied and besiege the bait unit. The bait unit doesn't need mobility; with Insect Mutants swarming from all sides, the heavy-duty Mecha just need to stand back-to-back in a circle and fire away.

Bai Yunpeng also laughed. "I didn't expect such a difficult problem to be resolved so simply. This 'Idol Actor' is not only a tactical master but also an ingenious talent!"

"Compile the tactics into a manual immediately and distribute it to the ground forces. We need feedback from the battlefield."

"Yes!" Despite having worked through the night, the senior staff got to work, their spirits lifted by the thought of the benefits the "Sacrificial Gambit" tactic would bring to the frontline.

Bai Yunpeng gestured for Bai Xianya to come over and said in a low voice, "You are still fully in charge of upgrading Research Institute 745 to a research academy."

He emphasized, "'Idol Actor' is a talent; we must retain him. Also, when the time is right, you can directly ask him if he has any concerns about revealing his identity. Whatever problem he may have, we can help him solve it."

"Alright."

Bai Xianya immediately went into the game to discuss this with "Idol Actor." Then, as expected… she couldn't find him.

Dozens of messages vanished like stones thrown into the ocean, disappearing without a trace.

Bai Xianya had almost gotten used to it and sighed helplessly.

「…」

Chen Gu attended class as usual the next day and then went to the substation at night to grind for skill experience. After exhausting himself, Chen Gu took a short rest in his office and casually logged into the Bureau of Mystic Security's intranet.

Merit points could be exchanged not only for various weapons and equipment but also for some potions and martial techniques.

He first browsed the potion category. Both [Primordial Life VI] and [Odoro Supplement] were prominently listed.

However, [Primordial Life VI] was very expensive, requiring 80 merit points per vial. The price was comparable to that of an inauguration ceremony.

The [Odoro Supplement] was much cheaper, requiring only 20 merit points.

Chen Gu casually exchanged for four [Odoro Supplement] vials and one [Primordial Life VI] vial. In fact, [Primordial Life VI] was optional for Chen Gu, who possessed [Atomic Life]; he had a greater need for the [Odoro Supplement].

A total of 160 merit points was a trifle for Chen Gu.

So wealthy and imposing!

He then looked at other potions. There were many good items; potions that directly enhanced physical fitness alone numbered over twelve types, and the effect of any one of them far exceeded the [Goliath Potion] Zhao Junzhi had used previously.

Truly befitting a major official organization; their foundation is indeed profound.

Then, Chen Gu scrolled to the martial techniques page, which was his real target.

Griffin Wester's [High-Energy Combat Art] was powerful, but it could only be deployed when he was in a memory embodiment state.

If Chen Gu was using another professional ability, in terms of combat, he could only rely on his own "Ancient Martial Great Nine Forms."

This martial art could dominate in high school, but it seemed insufficient against professionals. Chen Gu had felt this during several operations.

What he found most intolerable was that the day before yesterday, he actually couldn't defeat that worthless gorilla with the "Ancient Martial Great Nine Forms"!

Of course, at that time, Chen Gu had considered the gorilla's pride and hadn't told him that if he really used his skills, the gorilla, despite being at the Second Energy Level, definitely wouldn't be his match.

The gorilla, as a [Resonance Council Celebrity], had astonishing destructive power. Once it reached the Third Energy Level, it could create "earthquakes," easily destroying a mountain tens of thousands of feet high. Above the Sixth Energy Level, it would have the ability to destroy a planet!

But this profession had a very clear flaw: activating its skills required some time.

Time was needed to find the resonance frequency and to initiate the resonance.

This amount of time might be negligible for ordinary people, but it was a deadly issue for professionals—enough time for Chen Gu to defeat him several times over.

The gorilla, a grand Second Energy Level individual, was chased around by the [True Knowledge Sin]. His profession's inadequacy in "combat duels" also played a role in this.

On the martial techniques page, Chen Gu unhesitatingly selected the "Price: High to Low" filter.

The page flashed:

[Hundred Sovereigns Striking Technique], exchange value 2,000,000.

[Invincible Annihilation Technique], exchange value 2,000,000.

[Stellar Pinnacle Thirteen Fists], exchange value 2,000,000.

[Heaven-Destroying Earth-Shattering Combat Technique], exchange value 2,000,000.

[Doomsday Struggle Method], exchange value 1,900,000.
