Chapter 1965 Handling The Problems (2)

"What the hell? What did you do in the past few weeks? Did you not come home because you were robbing those countries?" Maya was stupefied. On the one hand, the countries were empty after the apocalypse, so robbing them wouldn't be an issue. On the other hand, there were so many strong monsters, including World Class Monsters. So, going there was not necessarily the best idea.
So, she didn't know how Theo could do all of that in the span of a few weeks. Even if he managed to kill all the monsters in his way, he had done the work of a thousand people by himself.
She didn't know that Theo had an army of monsters, led by a World Class Monster, to ransack all that was left in those countries.
Still, no matter how he did it, there was one thing that remained. With all these materials Theo got from many countries, he could be said to be the richest man in the world. And it wouldn't be hard for him to get the buyer for those materials.
"…" Maya pinched the bridge of her nose. "So, planning to pay taxes?"
"Of course not. The government is annoying and they don't know where I hide all those items. Well, you can say that it's not in the base, so why should I pay taxes?" Theo shrugged.
"Fair enough." Maya nodded. "I'm assuming you're going to use those resources, right?"
"Of course. I think you know what I'm thinking."
"A facility outside the base, focusing on processing those materials."
"Exactly. An independent place that no one could touch." Theo smirked. "After this, I want you to bring all the experts in constructing heavy weapons. I'm going to use the resources to build some weapons."
"But even a single turret requires a lot of time to construct. I don't think we have that much time, Theo." Maya frowned.
"Not at all." Theo shook his head and asked, "Do you remember the time when I destroyed the turrets?"
"Yes… Don't tell me!" Maya suddenly came to a realization.
"Hehe. It's just an illusion. I have hidden those turrets in another place." Theo smirked. "And with the current materials, we can upgrade them and procure the ammunition for it. So, our situation will become a bit better during the battle."
Maya nodded. "If it's just ammunition and upgrading a few things, I don't think it's a problem. I understand, I'll gather all those people after this."
"Thanks." Theo smiled and turned back to Rea. "Alright. There are still a few problems, so I'm going to tell you everything I have in mind. Since the government is trying to harm us, I'm going to handle this matter personally."
"I understand. What problems do you want to solve right now? Asides from the ones you handled earlier, there are matters about public trust, the giant area to be defended, a huge number of enemies, the investigation of spies… I think those four are the major problems, while the rest can be covered by us."
After contemplating for a few seconds, Theo asked, "How's the result of the investigation?"
"You told us to do an investigation, but since there's no need to put all our resources into that investigation. There aren't many things we have learned from the incidents. Should we put in more resources now?"
Theo shook his head. "No. But the key to the investigation is the battlefield. Do you remember when the monsters suddenly entered our ranks and hit us with explosions?"
"Yes. But we haven't found anything about it. After all, the people around the explosions have died."
"No. I already got the idea about the spy. So, I'll handle this matter personally."
"Hmm?" Rea noticed something strange. "Do you mean that the spies are rather special, so we shouldn't know about them so that we can avoid their detections?"
"Yes." Theo nodded with a serious expression. "So, let me just handle this. I can assure you that the spies won't be a problem in the future battle."
"I understand." Rea agreed, albeit hesitantly. On the one hand, she trusted Theo a lot. On the other hand, she was curious about the identities of those spies.
"As for the public trust, we don't have to care about it for the time being. There will be a conflict within them soon, so we'll just use it to distract their attention. It's not going to be that long for the next battle to arrive, so we don't have to care about their opinion right now.
"All you have to do is to not answer their questions. That is easy enough, right?" Theo looked at Rea with a smile before glancing at Nella.
"It seems I'm going to ask the beggar association to spread some rumor." Nella nodded in understanding. He just wanted to distract them, so if there were enough rumors circulating inside the base, they would be confused for a while.
"Thanks, Nella."
"No worries. I can handle this matter by myself. In fact, it feels like everything is so easy when you return. You have brought everything we need in order to handle all our problems. So, I should do my part as well."
Theo nodded. "Also…"
Theo wanted to say something, but he appeared to be hesitating. It didn't take too long for them to realize what kind of matter would make Theo hesitant.
But when Nella was about to tell him that it was fine to think about the bigger picture first instead of the family affair, Theo opened his mouth.
"Can you tell them this…" Theo paused for a moment. "The road to other continents is going to open soon since Maya will be handling it. So, it's time for them to bring all the related parties here… After the battle, we will talk."
Nella made a small smile. She nodded furiously. In the future, there might be a chance when they could finally sit at one table. So, she became pretty eager to tell them about this matter.
"Of course. I'm going to pass your message from word to word." Nella chuckled.
