Chapter 75 Successful Fishing
Chapter 75 Successful Fishing
Faced with such a baffling situation, Lorraine and Ouyang Nian dared not act rashly. They could only leave Di Ting in place and send the current situation to Cleveland, asking him to help them make a judgment on the current situation.
[Commander, situation received, analysis underway.]
While waiting for Cleveland to finish his analysis, Lorraine glanced at the intelligence system.
[1. Refresh time: 5 hours and 36 minutes]
[2. Refresh time: 14 hours and 25 minutes per day]
[3. The overlord of the second-tier region will return to his territory to recuperate. Countdown: 5 days, 10 hours, and 43 minutes]
[4. Refresh time: 16 hours and 12 minutes per day]
At first glance, Lorraine did not notice any changes. It was only when he was about to shut down the intelligence system that he discovered that the information about the overlord had changed.
"Hmm? It's injured, does that mean I can kill it more easily?"
Lorraine had long harbored the idea of taking down the Overlord for the generous kill reward, but due to the flagship's relatively weak anti-submarine capabilities, she was prepared to retreat at any time.
Seeing the intelligence before him, Lorraine felt he could create and set up some traps to influence and hinder the injured overlord, thus providing himself with an opportunity to unleash his full power.
Even if they ultimately fail to kill the overlord, the flagship's high speed should allow them to easily escape from an already wounded overlord.
Before Lorraine could think any further, the news from Cleveland brought her back to reality.
[Commander, information retrieval complete. Results are as follows.]
Below the dock is a small germplasm bank, which mainly stores seeds of food crops. Its self-sufficient system is capable of sustaining its operation for 50 years.
"learn."
Lorraine marked the location on the map and then decided to evacuate with Ouyang Nian first, and then come back to retrieve the server and seeds after the unstable factors in the camp were eliminated.
"Listen, come back."
After Diting left the customs office building and returned to Lorraine's side, the two prepared to load the mechanical dog and air gun into the car.
At this very moment, led by Platinum, the movers are loading various canned goods into the shipping container.
Platinum divided the movers into three groups to handle canned bread, canned vegetables, and canned meat respectively.
To prevent anyone from stealing the canned food, Platinum had Cat place the two Hummingbird drones in the warehouses storing canned vegetables and canned meat, respectively.
Cat controlled the hummingbird drone to land on the beam above the warehouse, using its small size to monitor everything inside. Cat stayed on top of the warehouse, receiving information from the drone while observing the surroundings.
The guards, Qiexue and Xuan Tie, stood on the left and right sides of the entrance to the three warehouses respectively. While on guard duty, they also had to keep a close eye on the movements of the porters.
Thanks to the hard work of the porters, the containers on the first truck were already more than half full. After confirming that there were no abnormalities in the surrounding environment, Platinum returned to the dock to drive the other truck over.
Not long after Platinum left, some people started having wicked ideas and wanted to steal some canned goods.
After the Hummingbird drone captured the person's actions, the suspicious footage was received by Cat, who then identified it and passed the information to Roy.
Roy, who was waiting by the carriage, received the information and extended his mechanical arm to stop the person who was stealing the canned goods.
"Why are you blocking my way? I need to move the cans. Get out of my way."
After being stopped, the man did not truthfully confess to his theft and even tried to bypass Roy to cover up his theft.
The questioning looks from those around him made him feel ashamed and even more eager to escape Roy's blockade.
"Let me through already, I haven't finished my work yet."
Roy remained silent, keeping the mechanical arm extended, forcing the man to confess to his theft.
"A good dog doesn't block the way, don't you understand?"
Seeing that Roy remained unmoved, the man became enraged and began to curse loudly while preparing to punch and kick Roy.
"What are you trying to do, stopping your Grandpa Yang?..."
"laugh"
The sound of the truck's brakes rang out, and Yang instantly reverted to his image as a hardworking and diligent porter, while secretly threatening the others with his eyes.
"Sir, you see, it's not that I'm not doing my job properly."
Before Yang could finish speaking, Bai Jin lifted him up.
"Either you admit it yourself, or I'll do it myself. You choose."
"Your Excellency, I did not..."
Yang tried to argue, but before he could finish speaking, he was intimidated by the murderous aura emanating from Bai Jin and could only stammer out his confession of theft.
"Ha, he really is a repeat offender."
Based on the message sent back by Lorraine and the man's behavior, Platinum confirmed the man's identity.
However, in order to eradicate the unstable factors in the camp, Platinum did not say anything more and let him continue working. At the same time, he signaled the special operations agents hidden in the porter team to pay more attention to Yang's movements.
The special operations operative nodded discreetly to indicate that he understood.
Platinum stood aside, continuing to supervise the people's moving work.
"Ha, there really is a thief hiding here."
While Lorraine was moving the mechanical dog with Ouyang Nian, she received a message from Platinum.
"What happened at Platinum? What does it have to do with the thief?"
Ouyang Nian didn't react for a moment, looking at Luo Lin hoping he could give an explanation.
Lorraine then remembered that he hadn't shared the information Liu Yufeng had given him with Ouyang Nian.
"When we set off, someone told me that there was a suspicious person among these porters, but for various reasons they didn't have any concrete evidence, and they hoped we could keep a close eye on them."
Upon hearing this news, Ouyang Nian wondered if Luo Lin would be angry because of being used by others.
"Why be angry? In fact, I'm quite pleased. After all, they were able to accurately identify suspicious individuals even in such a chaotic environment. This shows that their abilities are commendable."
Lorraine placed the two mechanical dogs she was holding into the container and continued speaking.
"Moreover, in my view, this behavior is a reasonable use of existing resources."
"What do you mean?"
Ouyang Nian wanted to hear Lorraine's explanation.
"It's like when the police are investigating a case, they find a suspect, but they can't confirm the other party's crime with the existing equipment and personnel."
"At this point, the higher-ups were going to hold an event that would attract the suspect to participate and commit crimes again. So the investigators applied to the higher-ups to borrow better equipment from the event to confirm the suspect's crimes."
"That is indeed a reasonable use of resources."
After hearing Luo Lin's explanation, Ouyang Nian suddenly understood.
