When Callie spoke of Peter’s impending return, the people who had been watching the broadcast began to voice their doubts.

“Who is this girl that suddenly appeared?”

“I know her. She’s the granddaughter of the President of the Federation.”

“Not only is she the granddaughter of the President of the Federation, but she’s also the girlfriend of General Peter…”

“General Peter? This name sounds familiar. I think I’ve heard it somewhere before.”

“He’s the Genetic General who previously killed the mutated vultures alone.”

“I remember now. Can General Peter really come back to save us?”

“Hmph! It’s the beasts that attacked the base city this time. What’s the use of relying on Peter?”

“Yeah, no matter how powerful that Peter is, he’s going to die when he meets the herd of beasts.”

There was no way Callie could know the citizens’ doubts.

After she finished speaking, she was grabbed by the guard beside the President of the Federation.

Then, the President of the Federation turned to Callie.

“Callie, stop messing around. Do you really trust Peter that much?”

“Yes! I believe him. Only he can save our base city…”

The President of the Federation waved his hand for the guard to release Callie.

“Callie, listen to me. I don’t care how much you believe in Peter, but you need to get out of here with me first.”

“What?”

Callie looked incredulous.

The old man in front of her was her grandfather and the highest-ranking commander of the Federation.

However, he actually wanted to take her away from here.

Callie wasn’t stupid. In fact, she was smart.

She knew that her grandfather was not talking about leaving this building.

Instead, he wanted to escape from this base city.

At that moment, the President of the Federation reached out and grabbed Callie’s arm, pulling her outside.

“Callie, if we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late. We’ll pilot the newest flying mecha and leave this place.”

The President of the Federation did not use the word “escape.”

However, this instead made Callie feel worse.

She broke free of her grandfather’s grip.

“If you want to leave, leave! I want to stay.”

Then, Callie ran out of the President’s sight.

Just then, Callie’s communicator beeped.

When she saw that it was Peter who had sent a call request, she quickly clicked confirm in surprise.

She knew that Peter would not abandon her, much less New York Base City.

Time was of the essence!

Callie briefly explained the situation to Peter.

Peter told Callie.

In ten minutes, the Genetic Warrior he was bringing back would arrive at the base city.

However, there was a serious problem that Callie needed to solve.

There were still many mutated birds circling above the base city.

If the mutated birds were not dealt with, the flying squadron that Peter brought back would not be able to land.

They would be torn to pieces by the ferocious birds in the air.
