Underground base, meeting hall.
Ji Burlen lay on the table, as if taking a short nap, when suddenly, in a swoosh, he lifted his head and opened his eyes, filled with red veins, to look around.
Seeing many people standing around looking at him with odd expressions, Ji Burlen realized something.
Had he accidentally fallen asleep during the meeting due to extreme exhaustion?
"Hm—"
Ji Burlen rubbed his temples and shook his dizzy head, looking at the people around him with a hoarse voice, he asked, "How long did I sleep?"
"Uh, about half a minute," someone answered.
"Half a minute, okay, sorry for the delay, it's my fault."
"No, no, Steward Ji Burlen, you're just too tired. Why don't you take a rest first?" someone suggested.
Ji Burlen waved his hand dismissively, "I'm fine, now is not the time to rest; there are so many matters left unhandled. After this mission is done, there will be time for a proper rest. Right, where were we in our discussion just now?"
