464: Chapter 421: Exploration (Extra update for Silver Alliance Leader Shui Zhong Sha Tang) (Third Update) 464: Chapter 421: Exploration (Extra update for Silver Alliance Leader Shui Zhong Sha Tang) (Third Update) The Second Legion successfully breached a large abandoned bank in Dom City and acquired a considerable amount of Star Stones from the vault.
Looking at this outco, Spade was very satisfied.
The operation had started to yield returns on just the second day, and if nothing unexpected happened, the returns would likely increase as the days went on.
Of course, good things always ca with bad things.
All three exploration legions had suffered varying degrees of casualties.
The Third Legion had the most severe casualties and had not yet seen any returns.
It couldn’t entirely be said that the Third Legion’s casualties were due to bad luck or encountering stronger monsters.
The most crucial point was that both the First and Second Legions surpassed the Third Legion in terms of the elite level of their personnel and their equipped weaponry.
So, this outco wasn’t surprising at all.
At that mont, the operator suddenly spoke, “Report, Lord Spade, there is a problem.”
“What’s the issue?”
“Above the Reserve Point Base, there is atmospheric pressure disorder with a large area of pollution clouds gathering.
It seems extre weather may occur.”
“Is it serious?”
“Quite serious.
Communications might be disrupted to so extent.”
The operator explained as he called up the detected images.
“Inform Mai Han to handle it.
If it really can’t be helped, tell him to delay the mission and make preparations.”
“Yes.”
…..
In the forest, Chen Shan, piloting his cha at the front, grew more and more annoyed and couldn’t help but punch a passing tree.
Crack, the tree fell at the sound, as he angrily said.
“If those bastards I sent can’t fix things, when I get back to the Black Brilliance, the first thing I’ll do is file a complaint against them and send them all to the Judicial Court!”
Su Mo sighed and said, “Alright, cut it out.”
“Doesn’t it just feel too frustrating?”
“What’s there to be frustrated about, Chen Shan?
Have you ever thought about one thing?”
“What thing?”
“The dical team from the GT departnt indeed has a bad attitude, but have you ever considered why they act like this?”
Su Mo asked.
After hearing this, Chen Shan fell silent and stopped talking.
Having heard what Su Mo said, he began to think of so possibilities.
“Never mind, let’s not talk about this now, let’s speed up and head to the coordinates.”
Su Mo pushed the control lever and accelerated forward.
…
After a long ti, Su Mo and the others arrived at the designated area.
The journey there was exceptionally smooth.
Aside from a few mutated creatures that were out of their elent, they hadn’t faced much attack.
Not far ahead, Xiao Wen and about a hundred people had been waiting for so ti.
Su Mo and Chen Shan imdiately went up to et them.
“Old Xiao, we’re here,”
Chen Shan greeted.
“Good that you’ve co.
I just received the latest directive to explore the number 7 covert base.”
“Is it far?”
“There’s so distance in a valley far away.
I just did so recon with a drone.
That valley is teeming with mutated creatures, almost turning into a monster den,”
Xiao Wen said with a headache.
Su Mo pondered for a mont and asked, “What are the chances we can fight our way in?”
“It shouldn’t be too much of a problem getting in, but there definitely will be casualties.
I had thought about setting a fire to see if it could drive them away, but look at the sky—dark and cloudy, and it’s starting to get windy.
It feels like it’s going to rain.”
“If it rains, it will be even harder to explore.”
Su Mo was increasingly vexed.
“Then, Su Mo, do you have any good suggestions?”
Chen Shan asked, irritated.
“No good suggestions.
If we really must explore, I suggest we make it quick and move fast right now.
Otherwise, we should retreat back to the camp.
Otherwise, if it starts to pour, our chas might be fine, but the people below won’t be able to withstand it.”
Su Mo explained.
“Then let’s do it!”
Chen Shan said fiercely.
“Let’s do exactly that.”
Xiao Wen couldn’t care less at this point.
“I’ll lead the way!”
Su Mo took control of the Black Steel cha and led the way, taking a deep breath, ready to give it his all.
“Okay!”
Xiao Wen didn’t object, there was no better person than Su Mo to lead at this ti.
A good vanguard could significantly reduce casualties.
So the whole team started to move quickly.
Once Su Mo got serious, he could clearly feel an enhancent in his perception and nerve reactions.
He could keenly sense each and every movent around him.
Su Mo increasingly felt strange changes in his body, having a strong premonition.
Although he had injected himself with the V-type Genetic Injector and his body was greatly strengthened, he hadn’t yet fully developed his body’s potential.
Not long after they advanced quickly, a dazzling lightning bolt split the sky, followed by a clap of thunder.
The rain then began to pour down with fierce wind.
Upon closer examination of the falling rain, it was muddy, worse than the rain on Earth Star.
Alerts continuously popped up on the Black Steel cha.
“Alert: Change detected in the external environnt, adaptability for survival decreased.”
“Alert: Scanned mildly corrosive polluted rainwater.”
…
Su Mo shook his head, truly, when luck is bad, nothing goes well.
He took a deep breath, continued to focus on moving forward, but his speed had also slowed down significantly.
With the torrential rain, the sky got darker.
One might think it was already evening.
As the Black Steel cha walked through the rain, Su Mo continuously scanned the areas ahead from the cockpit.
Suddenly, he keenly caught sothing unusual in the area ahead and imdiately raised his short-range rifle, firing furiously.
A piercing scream erupted from the bushes ahead.
The sudden gunfire also startled the others behind him.
Chen Shan and the others imdiately beca alert, but after Su Mo finished shooting, he put away his gun and continued forward, saying,
“It was an ambushing straggler.”
Chen Shan and the others grew increasingly admiring and trusting of Su Mo; he could even detect the enemy like that.
An hour later, Su Mo and the others had crossed the woods and ca to the top of a valley.
By then, the rain had lessened, but the muddy mountain road had beco extrely difficult to navigate.
However, Su Mo and his team overca it.
Looking into the distance, they could see an iron gate with rust spots exposed inside the mountain wall of the valley.
Su Mo activated the radar to scan the entire valley: red dots appeared, indicating at least forty to fifty different types of alien species monsters were lurking there.
“That’s the gate, let’s charge in.”
Chen Shan said, gathering courage.
“No, that would be too damaging.
Here’s the plan, I’ll go down and draw all the monster’s attention, fight them, and you provide firepower support from above.”
Su Mo proposed.
“But wouldn’t that be dangerous for you?
No, no, how could we let you take the risk alone.”
Chen Shan firmly opposed.
“This is the best thod, and I’m piloting the Black Steel cha, which is tough and not so easily damaged,”
Su Mo explained.
“Let’s do as Su Mo suggests.”
After so consideration, Xiao Wen agreed.
