Chapter 295 is notorious
On the other side of the hotel camp, in the room of slave trader Huo Zhi.
He looked at the glass window and said to himself:
"The team that approached us just now actually has a robot, we can't underestimate their strength......"
After pondering for a few seconds, Huo Zhi said to his subordinates next to him:
"Ah Qiang, while it's not all dark yet, go find out what this team is from, and be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years."
Ah Qiang was short and looked quite strong, and said a little embarrassed when he heard this:
"Boss, I know you are cautious, afraid that they will not come to visit us for no reason, but at this point, the Red Stone Market is closed, where can I find someone? People here hide so much that they can't find a ghost."
Huo Zhi knew that this was not an excuse, so he thought for a moment:
"Go to the vigilant church and ask for a familiar guard."
They often had to send slaves outside the "underground boat," which inevitably went through the vigilant church.
"Yes, boss." Ah Qiang didn't say anything more, went out to find a car, and went straight to the north of the ruins of the city.
Huo Zhi sat down and patiently waited for the return of this confidant.
When the sun completely set and darkness covered the earth, the car driven by Ah Qiang finally appeared at the entrance of the hotel camp.
He got out of the car with a solemn expression, entered Huo Zhi's room, glanced left and right, and said in a low voice:
"Boss, that team has a lot of background!"
"What do you say?" Huo Zhi stood up on the ground.
Aqiang swallowed his saliva and said:
"A guard in the church told me that that team had previously dealt with a very powerful Awakened and saved the entire Redstone Set from the hands of the Secondary Alliance.
"If you have to find something to compare, it is that they can destroy the redstone collection that is not wary of the existence of the sect, and at that time, they have not yet obtained the robot!"
"This ......" Huo Zhi forgot to roll his eyes when he heard it.
As far as he knew, although the Red Stone Collection was full of internal contradictions, even if it was not vigilant against sect protection, its own firepower was strong enough, and it could definitely rank first in the Nuhu area, and it could easily kill an unknown number of caravans like himself.
So a four-person squad can be compared to such a large settlement?
After a long silence, Huo Zhi asked confirmingly:
"Does this include the power of the 'underground boat'?"
"Probably not." Ah Qiang replied truthfully, "The people in the church don't know what the real strength of the 'underground boat' is."
Huo Zhi nodded slowly and said with a "hiss":
"Regardless of whether the church guards brag or not, the team on the opposite side is not simple.
"It should be the kind that four or five people can destroy a settlement, maybe all of them have reached the level of 'senior hunters', not much worse than the incredibly powerful ruin hunter teams we know."
Speaking of this, Huo Zhi exhaled:
"Fortunately, a team of this grade will definitely look down on us, just a few dozen slaves, even if Mr. Dimarco offers a high price, they can't exchange the materials they are interested in.
"They should have sensed the movement and habitually came over to look at it twice to confirm the situation."
Cuong was persuaded by the boss and asked worriedly:
"Then will you get everyone out to give a lecture tomorrow morning?"
"No need." Huo Zhi shook his head without hesitation, "I will enter their room in person and talk about them one by one, and I must not disturb the other side."
When he said these words, his voice lowered a little unconsciously.
Seeing that Ah Qiang seemed to be a little uneasy, Huo Zhi smiled and said:
"Can a team of this grade still deal with us for dozens of slaves?
"What is their identity, and will there be a shortage of slaves?"
Cuong said "hmm":
"I will arrange patrols at night."
…………
In the middle of the night, Jiang Baimian woke up in a daze, turned over and grabbed the water bag on the bedside table.
At this moment, she saw a figure sitting quietly on the bed opposite.
Jiang Baimian woke up instantly.
She took a look and found that it was indeed Shang Jianyao.
"You still don't sleep so late?" Jiang Baimian asked in astonishment and amusement.
Shang Jianyao supported the bed with both hands and turned his body abruptly.
In the faint moonlight shining outside the window, he replied with bright eyes:
"I'm thinking of a feasible solution."
"It's really serious......" Jiang Baimian didn't know how to evaluate, so he said casually.
She asked instead:
"Do you have an idea?"
Shang Jianyao shook his head:
"Not yet."
"Oh......" Jiang Baimian felt relieved.
Before her voice fell, Shang Jianyao added:
"There was so much inspiration."
"......" The smile on Jiang Baimian's face became a little reluctant.
Shang Jianyao continued to himself:
"I'm now thinking about this matter together with breaking through the third island.
"Isn't it because you are afraid that you will give everything and still can't change anything? Then do something difficult in reality and strive to change some cruel states that cannot be seen.
"Of course, saving all mankind starts with saving small groups and small changes."
"At that time, I hope to have a certain harvest and feedback into the spiritual world."
After listening quietly, Jiang Baimian hugged the quilt and adjusted his posture so that he could lie down more comfortably.
"The idea...... It's really good." She said realistically, "The key to defeating the third island may really be to link with reality and break the doubts in your heart through the affirmation of reality."
Speaking of this, she changed her subject:
"However, you don't have to choose such a difficult thing from the beginning, right?"
Shang Jianyao laughed, his face hazy under the moonlight:
"I didn't think about a feasible plan to defeat the third island.
"It's just incidental."
At this moment, Jiang Baimian inexplicably felt that his smile was like a child, very clean and pure.
Jiang Baimian opened his mouth, closed it again, and complained after a long time:
"You can wait until dawn to think about it, in the middle of the night, go to bed quickly, and only when you have enough energy can you come up with a good solution."
She wanted to pull out a pillow and throw it over to smash the merchant and raise the strength of her words, but considering that there was only one pillow, she gave up on this idea.
"Hmm." Shang Jianyao thought for a while and nodded.
Syllable!
He fell straight down and spread his legs.
Jiang Baimian wrapped the quilt tightly and changed to a position with his back to the bed opposite.
In the quiet night, she suddenly whispered:
"Sometimes, I really envy your pure ......"
Shang Jianyao replied in a serious tone:
"This is in exchange for a doctor's certificate."
"......" Jiang Baimian chose to close his eyes.
…………
The next morning, the "old tune team" had a simple breakfast, and under the watchful eyes of the townspeople of Redstone Market who were repairing the faulty circuit of the hotel camp, they drove a jeep to the underground shopping mall in the park.
This was their original plan, visiting the "Visa Trading Company" to discuss high-performance batteries.
The "Visa Trading Company" is still on duty as the lady wearing a green ghost mask but as timid as a rabbit.
"Up, up, good morning." Obviously, this woman recognized the former Red Stone Jiyiba.
Jiang Baimian asked with a smile:
"Which housekeeper is here today?"
"Butler Ulrich." The lady in charge of reception replied honestly.
Righteous Lord...... Jiang Baimian secretly felt that he was lucky, and pressed the handsome monk mask he wore on his face:
"Please let me know, we would like to visit Mr. Ulrich."
"Okay." The lady hurriedly took out the walkie-talkie and avoided Shang Jianyao and the others, not knowing who she was talking to.
Wearing sunglasses, Gnawa looked at her figure that was mostly covered by the wall, and asked Jiang Baimian and others:
"Do you need me to repeat their conversation?"
"Can you hear me?" Shang Jianyao looked curious.
Unfortunately, this was covered by monkey masks.
Gnawa nodded:
"This distance, this volume, is within my monitoring range."
Jiang Baimian amusedly lamented that the average hearing of the "old tune group" had been significantly improved, and asked thoughtfully:
"Do you usually take the initiative to monitor the surrounding environment?"
"Not in a safe environment, performing tasks or in similar scenarios." Gnava replied in concise language, "Not turning it on is mainly to save power and protect the battery. The endurance and life cycle of high-performance batteries are still one of the key factors restricting the number of intelligent people and the development of society, so 'Source Brain' has been looking for information from the old world in the fields of 'nuclear power miniaturization technology', 'ultra-high-performance battery technology', and 'controlled nuclear fusion research', hoping to turn these into reality."
As expected of an intelligent person, he can repeat the words I heard at that time almost word for word...... Having a large database and advanced search algorithms is amazing...... Long Yuehong deeply admired Gnava's "memory".
At this time, the lady in charge of the reception of the "Visa Trading Company" walked back, as if facing a natural enemy nemesis, and said with a slight trembling body:
"Butler Ulrich, please come to the conference room."
Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and others followed the guidance and found a conference room with a long table, a dozen chairs and an LCD screen.
The lady in charge of the reception turned on the LCD display, debugged the condition, exited the room, and closed the door.
Gnava then said:
"This is our 'Mechanical Heaven' product ......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Shang Jianyao raise his index finger, put it to his mouth, and made a "shhh" sound.
Gnava immediately interrupted his speech.
That is, two or three seconds later, a serious man in his forties wearing a black dress and a black bow tie appeared on the LCD screen.
He was one of Dimarco's butlers, Ulrich.
"Mr. Butler, aren't you in the company?" Jiang Baimian asked amusedly.
Ulrich replied calmly:
"There are awakened among you and they are showing strong aggression."
When Shang Jianyao stopped Dimarco's guards, he exposed his "lack of hand movement".
As for aggression, it undoubtedly refers to Shang Jianyao's frightening behavior of throwing grenades.
At this point, Ulrich clasped his hands and placed them on his chest, and then, he took a step back:
"Distance is our friend."
