‘Worth a lot? What does that even mean?” Josie Quinn asked, genuinely puzzled.

It wasn’t that she was ignorant, but she had spent ten years just trying to survive after being sold in the previous timeline. She had very little knowledge of how the pre-apocalypse world actually functioned at its highest levels. Her practical knowledge and real-world experience had massive gaps.

Even after being reborn, she hadn’t found the time to fill those holes. She needed a crash course.

Josie, you have to understand-there’s a group of people in our country who must remain in the shadows,” Hudson Knox explained. “Their records and dentities are classified until the day they die. In terms of importance, one of these individuals is worth an entire army.”

osie took a sharp breath. “I studied that in school, but I never connected it to real life. Is Sean Voss one of them?”

He is!” Hudson nodded with certainty. “His real name is Sean Voss, but he definitely uses a string of fake identities and aliases to conduct his work. With a mix of truth and lies, it’s impossible for outsiders to track him down.”

The Blue Owl Squad used to handle missions like this all the time-protecting experts and professors while they traveled to execute secret operations.”

Those classified tasks usually involve high-level research, biology, or weaponry. Essentially, they are matters of national security and the people’s ivelihood.”

Ordinary citizens lived peaceful lives, never knowing that so many people were operating on the edge of extreme danger, dancing between life and death every single day.”

Josie nodded solemnly. “You’re right. The Blue Owl Squad is incredible. You were the guardians of our nation!”

We wouldn’t call ourselves guardians,” Hudson said modestly, waving it off. “We just did our jobs. Our contributions were nothing compared to people like Sean Voss.”

‘Someone researching nuclear weapons and nuclear fuel is a true pillar of the nation. For instance, controlled nuclear fusion-that’s a project the entire world is chasing. Whoever masters that technology first controls the future.”

I heard our side had already made a breakthrough. The experiments were successful; they just needed to move to practical application.”

Think about it. Perfecting controlled nuclear fusion means we’d have infinite resources forever. Imagine the massive boost to our national strength.”

Do you think rival nations would just allow us to have technology that advanced? Agents and spies were everywhere, constantly trying to hunt down these researchers.”

“Every single one of their lives is priceless.”

“So, even though the world has gone to hell and the concept of a ‘nation’ has crumbled, Sean’s instinctive caution still remains.”
