Chapter 1426
i'll think of something. You've got to hold out for a while longer. After I've gotten the authorization, I will send The Braves
over to stand in for you."
"Okay." The group said, and went off to execute Carl's order at once.
From outside of the control room, Olaf rushed over, barging through the door, and went up to Carl's side.
"How did it go?" Carl looked at him and asked.
'They've agreed. The higher ups have given US the authorization. All of the units in the base are now under your
command," Olaf handed the authorization code to Carl.
As soon as he had acquired the authorization, Carl immediately ordered The Braves to take position at each gate and

Braves to the gates. The men cooperated with the Braves as they emptied the magazines on the Ravens.
The battle transpired over the night, with both sides engaging each other fiercely. The Raven, who had always
relied on their heavy artillery, were easily defeated after Carl had gotten authorization over the Braves.
Carl ascended to the rooftop and called Nicole following their successful victory in defending the base.
"Hey, why did it take you so long to answer the phone?" Carl asked sharply when he saw that Nicole was taking
longer to answer the phone.
"I was busy moments ago. How's everything on your end? Have you received the Beacons I've sent to you?"
Nicole's tone was filled with concern.
"Everything's fine on my side. We've just succeeded in defending the base against The Raven." Carl said, reporting
the good news to her, as he did not wish to make her anxious.
"I've yet to receive the shipment. Perhaps it's on the way. Well, even if it has arrived, it won't be easy for US to get
it, as members of The Raven are just right outside."
"How many Beacons do you have left? Is it enough?" Nicole asked, worried.
"Yeah, there is enough to go around," he replied. "Don't worry."
Carl had previously counted the quantity of Beacons before heading up to the rooftop. ’Half of our entire stock had
been used up, the new shipment isn't coming in, and things are getting worse, as our defense efforts are getting
more challenging.'
"That's great. I'll come over to help you out after I'm done with my work here," she said.
Nicole's words were like a beacon of bright light in the darkness, giving Carl the hope he never thought he needed.
Although Carl would like it if Nicole fought side by side with him, he had to decline the offer.

"Oh, it's fine," he said. "You can rest easy, knowing that nothing will go wrong here. The Raven isn't that big of an
issue. You should focus on your job back at home."
'Well, you're the best!" Nicole said. "Be vigilant, and don't ever let your guard down."
Nicole knew Carl's character all too well, which was why she did not argue with him, opting instead to give her words of
encouragement.
"Don't worry. I'll see you after the missions are over," Carl said over the phone.
"Sure, you should hurry up now," Nicole urged.
"Of course," he said. "Anyway, I have to go now."
"Okay."
After hanging up, Carl returned to the main control room and continued to deploy his defenses all over base. Meanwhile,
Nicole was busy cracking the last key for Zeke.
Nicole heaved a long sigh of relief as she had finally found the last secret key. She had lived up to Zeke's expectation,
owing to her ability to decipher the encryption for the task.
