The enormous explosion startled Oklo Laf, nearly causing him to slide off his chair. The base was thrown into chaos due to the explosion, and it took a while before an officer fearfully came forward to report, "Commander, we have been shelled, but thankfully, the shells did not land within the camp."
"Where did the shelling come from?" Oklo Laf asked in surprise.
"It should be..." The officer's eyes rolled carefully as he answered, "It should be the Lipei Defense Forces..."
"How could this be? We haven't even started the war yet."
Oklo Laf was even more surprised.
"Moreover..." the officer paused before continuing, "we haven't received the supply from Lipei today; the situation is not looking good."
"How could this happen? Why would Lipei suddenly turn hostile?"
Oklo Laf started to become anxious as well.
The unexpected shelling was a sufficient scare, making him abruptly realize that the base was not safe and was within the fire range of the Lipei Defense Forces.
