Chapter 160
“I promise I will complete the mission!” Marina said word by word.
His tone was unprecedentedly firm.
“Great, that’s great!” Matthew repeated. His pale face finally turned pink a little at this moment.
After that, Matthew gave Marina a detailed explanation of the mission.
The person they needed to bring back was a Ph.D. in physics called Professor Jardine.
The latest achievement in his hands was an advanced technology that all the major countries in the world were fighting for.
However, Professor Jardine wanted to return to his motherland with his technology.
However, the other
actions did not want to let him off so easily.
If he could not be used by them, then he must be destroyed.
“Marina, this mission is very dangerous. Not only do the forces in Meridonia want Professor Jardine, but other forces have also been tracking his
whereabouts.
“My injury this time is also re
to this matter. They are bent on stopping Professor Jardine from returning to our country.
“That’s why you must be extremely careful. Under the premise of protecting Professor Jardine, you must also protect yourself!” Matthew said as he looked her in the eye.
If not for the fact that he did not have any other soldiers who were capable enough to do this, he would not have called Marina back.
After all, that incident back then had really hurt her badly.
“Matthew, don’t worry. I’ll definitely complete the mission!” After reading all the information, Marina understood how important Professor Jardine was
to Calirina.
She would do whatever it took to bring Professor Jardine back to Calirina!
“Alright, because the mission is confidential, I can only give you six team members. Other than Brendon, you can choose five more members from the army headquarters,” Matthew said.
“I understand.” Marina nodded.
“Let Brendon bring you back to Team 793 so that you can choose your teammates,” Matthew said after a moment of silence.
When Marina heard this, her eyes could not help but flicker.
However, she quickly returned back to normal.
“Alright!” Marina did not turn him down.
The members of Team 793 were most suitable for this mission.
“According to our contact with the informant over there, we’ll be leaving in three days at the latest. Is it enough time for you to make your arrangements?” Matthew asked Marina worriedly.
After all, she was no longer the Marina who was

fight at any time.
“That’s good. I’ll leave the rest to you. If you need anything, you can contact me at any time,” Matthew said in a low voice.
“Yes, sirt”
Ever since she leht Matthew’s room, Marina had not said a single word.
However, the expression on her face was more determined than before.
“Captain, are you alright?” Brendon was following Marina.
He was clearly much bigger than Marina, but for some reason, he was very careful with his tone when he spoke to her.
“Why are you asking me that?” Marina raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
“Of course, it’s because…” Brendon subconsciously wanted to say something, but the words suddenly stopped at the tip of his tongue.
That incident was an eternal pain in their captain’s heart.
She probably never wanted to mention it again in her life.
“Captain, don’t worry. No matter what happens, I will always be by your side!” Brendon said seriously.
When Marina heard this, her expression could not help but soften.
“Okay.” She said nothing else than that.
“I still have some private matters to arrange. I’ll contact you to choose new team members in a day at most.”
“Alright, I’ll wait for you!” Brendon nodded heavily.
After Marina had done talking business with him, she got into the car and left.
On the road, Marina’s grip on the steering wheel tightened.
Ever since that incident back then, she thought that she would never go back there in her life.
Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, she still couldn’t escape.
Marina drove all the way back to the Bailey family.
The first thing she did after returning was to check on Lambert’s injuries.
“Your wound is recovering very well. The rest of the time will be for systematical rehabilitation. I will send the details to your doctor. When the time comes, you have to follow the plan I made for you for a follow–up examination. You can’t be lazy on this, and you can’t rush it!”
Marina said that word by word.
“Don’t worry. I treasure my legs more than anything. I won’t do anything rash.” Lambert got a very relaxed look on his face.
He did not look like someone who had just escaped death and was almost paralyzed.
“Also, I might have to go out for a period of time. Help me take good care of Grandpa during this time,” Marina added.
She had a feeling that Janeborough was not going to be peaceful anymore.
“Where are you going?” Lambert frowned when he heard this.
“I’m going to settle a small matter. If everything goes well, I’ll be back in about half a month.” The mission was confidential. Even if it was her family, Marina felt that she could not reveal anything.
“Alright, be careful when you’re out there. Remember to keep in touch with us.” Lambert did not ask further.
He knew that there were still many things that his sister was hiding from them.
The only thing he was sure of was that she would never hurt the Bailey family.
“Okay.” Marina nodded and went back to her room.
However, she was not in a hurry to take a shower and sleep. After entering her room, she opened a secret door in her room.
An elevator instantly appeared in front of her.
After she input her fin
, the elevator rose directly to the attic above.
As soon as the elevator door opened, a modern laboratory appeared in front of her.
The equipment here was the best in the world.
All the weapons on Phoenix were developed by Marina at this very place.
This mission was very important, so she had to make sufficient preparations.
It was imperative for her to ensure that they could bring that scientist home safely.
Marina walked straight to a wall.
Then she reached out to

The next moment, the mirror

“Fingerprint unlocked successfully.”

echanical voice, the originally intact wall suddenly separated from both sides.
Inside was a small storage warehouse.
The walls were filled with weapons of various sizes and colors.
“Wow, why is there a place like this in your room?” At this moment, a voice filled with surprise suddenly sounded from behind Marina.
Behind him was Phoenix.
Marina did not even turn her head as she took down a small knife from the shelf.
The knife was as thin as paper, and the blade was only a finger long.
However, there was a cold light surrounding it.
“That is a beautiful knife!” Quantum subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch it.
“This knife can cut through iron. If you want to become a programmer without fingers, feel free to touch it,” Marina said casually.
