Dr. Lucian used laboratory equipment to accurately analyze the material of the soil remaining in the drill bit, and made a very surprising discovery.
He immediately called Jason and told him that he had detected a very valuable mineral——
lanthanum!
This is an extremely valuable metal rare earth element that is used in all high-tech electronic equipment, especially in the field of automotive batteries. It is an indispensable raw material.
Now that electric vehicles are being promoted all over the world, batteries are destined to replace oil, known as soft gold, and become one of the best-selling goods in global demand in the future.
Oil has brought such terrible benefits and created countless billionaires.
This has become a fact before our eyes.
Batteries will replace petroleum in the future, which is enough to illustrate the terrifying value of lanthanum.
Nowadays, extremely high levels of lanthanum have been found in burned poppy farms, which means whoever owns the farm is equivalent to owning a cash cow.
The value hidden within it…
It starts at 100 billion and cannot be capped at 1 trillion.
After listening to Dr. Lucian's introduction, Jason recalled the whole story. In addition, the poppy land was sold at a low price, and the various aspects involved became wider and wider, and more and more people were involved.
Even though I am used to seeing all kinds of things in the world, I still can't help but feel my scalp numb.
He vaguely realized that the destruction of Team E was not just a matter of revenge.
Clearly involved in a whirlpool of terror.
Because they discovered a secret they shouldn't know, they finally met a tragic ending.
In order to verify whether his conjecture was true, Jason, disbelieving and angry, went directly to the office of Xeon Strategic Security Company at the base.
He asked the company boss Carter face to face why he deceived Steve and gave him a fake test report.
Carter looked calm when questioning Jason.
I took out a test report with at least hundreds of pages, certified and issued by many U.S. government departments, and highly credible.
They claimed that the death of Team E had nothing to do with this incident. They had long known that there was lanthanum in the ground on the farm, but the content was too small to be worth mining.

He also claimed that if Jason didn't believe it, he could take the exposure back and watch it slowly.
How could Jason believe it so easily?
He was sure the report was false, but he couldn't provide any evidence.
Especially the numerous U.S. functional departments on the report and the government seals stamped on it made Jason realize that the water behind it was very deep.
"You are dead, I will find the evidence."
Faced with Carter's calmness that didn't take him seriously, Jason knew that there must be someone behind him, but without any real evidence, he could only leave with a harsh word.
Jason came into contact with the hidden truth and began to secretly search for answers to make Carter pay the price.
Mandy on the other side still did not obtain any valuable information after two days of interrogation.
Baradur's mouth was as hard as iron.
Just when Mandy was helpless with Balladur, she could only continue to waste time with him.
The east side is not bright, the west side is bright.
The informant on Pakistan's Line 4 took the initiative to call the operations center and asked to speak to Mandy.
Mandy had not called Line 4 for information recently, and was wondering what the informant wanted to do with him. When she answered the phone, she was shocked when she heard the first sentence.
"I am Abad Harani, congratulations on catching Hamid Gul Baradol."
"Abad Halani?"
Mandy covered the phone and didn't feel confident, so she quickly signaled to Diaz to record the call.
In his second sentence, Abad released another big move, directly stating that his brother was the murderer behind Salim's murder and the murderer who bombed the US military troops a few weeks ago.
He wanted to give his brother to the US military as a gift.
He also made an appointment to meet in Karachi, Bagestan, at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. At that time, he would hand over all the criminal evidence of his brother and his hiding place.
Then he ended the call decisively, leaving Mandy and Diaz confused.
The younger brother actually wants to betray his own brother, and also provides all the criminal evidence. This is really unbelievable and full of temptation.
Diaz immediately informed Eric, and soon the AB teams were called to the operations center for a meeting.
After everyone listened to the phone recording played by Diaz, they were no less shocked than Mandy and Diaz.
"Are you sure it's me?" Lei first questioned.
"Through voice recognition technology comparison, there is more than 90% chance that it is Abad himself." Mandy affirmed.
"Why did he betray his own brother? Is it an internal power struggle? He wants to take back the rights that should belong to him through our hands?" Clay asked doubtfully.
"This is very possible. Didn't Mandy say some rumors before? If Abad's power is really emptied by Nuri, he wants to stand up. There is no other way but to kill his brother, and then we
Just in time to help him."
After Long Zhan finished speaking, he smiled and said jokingly: "This may be what is called, the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"That doesn't make sense."
Sonny still felt weird and said depressedly: "Nuri, as the inheritor of historical warlords, is rich and powerful, how could he kill a US military squad in revenge and get himself into big trouble just for burning down a poppy field?"
?”
"this……"
Jason opened his mouth, but ultimately did not say anything.
It's really not worth the trouble of offending the U.S. military for a piece of rice that can sell for millions of dollars.
But what if there are rare earth minerals worth tens of billions of dollars hidden under this land, and the secret is hidden in order to kill people and silence them.
This matter is a matter of course.
If coupled with the tacit cooperation with the US government, Carter, who is the largest military contractor in Afghanistan, and the government are also involved.
That means the top European officials and Washington are very likely to be involved.
With the blessing of these high-level political backgrounds, it is even more stress-free to do it.
In the face of absolute interests, people have no bottom line.
Jason could guess the huge conspiracy, but because he had no evidence at all, he couldn't put it on the table.
He can only choose silence!
"Sonny, none of what you said is important."
Eric looked around at everyone and said seriously: "Actually, I only care about one thing, and that is whether Nuri is the real murderer of Team E.
And Abad said he had evidence and could help us capture Nouri.
No matter what, what we have to do now is to first meet Abad, get evidence and intelligence from him, and then monitor him.
When we successfully capture Nuri, we will capture him as well, and then we will know all the truth."
