Mo Lianren may regret not being able to stop her sister, but she does not delay the business in this scene. Military tourists often have a very deep research on weapons. What Mo Lianren created this time is a large creature hunting weapon that does not belong to this scene, but is also in the technological category. Through the combination of hot and cold weapons and made of strong composite materials, each weapon has a maximum length ranging from two to three meters and can be unfolded and folded freely.
However, except for Mo Lianren himself, the rest of the people still need training to use this weapon.
"Thank you, it was a big help." Mo Lianren stood on the production line to supervise, and at the same time had an internal call with Lu Ning.
"If I remember correctly, the technology tree of this type of weapon comes from civilizations that coexist with giant dangerous creatures. Before the invention of destructive weapons, they would train specialized hunters to use this type of weapon to hunt giant creatures. .”
"Yes, similar records can be seen from many written records. To be honest, the environment of Phantom Star currently requires these things. We may have to fight some dangerous creatures at close range. In addition to special ammunition, I think We need to prepare the next batch of equipment that can fight head-on."
"Well, since that's your judgment."
Mo Lianren was silent for a moment, then spoke again: "Since it's you, I have two pieces of information to tell you."
"You're actually hiding something secret." Lu Ning said half-jokingly.
"Not really, because these two pieces of information telling unknown people are likely to cause a lot of unnecessary trouble." Mo Lianren sighed, "First of all, we discovered a base station."
"Base station?"
The concept of a base station is different from that of an outpost. It only operates as a transfer core and does not even require human control. It only needs to continue production and warehousing operations in a safe place, and provide supplies and information sharing and updates to passing units. Can. There is a good chance that such a base station will not be affected by that particular disease.
"Well, I obtained the base station number through the reconnaissance team's authority. It is No. 1, which means that this base station was the first to be established by the advance team. Most of its internal functions are still running. However, because the warehouse is full, the mechanical unit has no control over some Except for the scrapped materials for cleaning and replenishment, most of them are in a standby state. It’s just that the things from decades ago cannot match our current equipment except for food replenishment. We updated the production line data there, and then carried out clearance and reproduction.”
"This part is normal, but Base Station No. 1..."
"Yes, the next step is the key. When we updated, we also checked the logs in the base station and copied that part of the logs. It is worth noting that although the loss of contact occurred fifteen years ago, However, this base station did not have any information updated more than 20 years ago, including warehouse extraction. It has long been abandoned, and the last extraction of materials was at Outpost No. 1."
"Let me guess, they cleared out the inventory in there all at once?"
"Yes."
"Sure enough, Outpost No. 1 planned an operation. What is the specific date?"
"According to the corresponding time between the Magic Star and the Alliance, we came here fifteen and a half years ago. However, the base station's timing method is based on the Magic Star Calendar. There is a certain discrepancy between the two. To be precise, it should be the Alliance's chronological method. Nine years and four months ago, the update of Phantom Star information was stopped.”
"Interestingly, the advance team has only been active in the entire Magic Star for eleven years. The productivity of the base station is basically equivalent to filling the warehouse in one year. In other words, the No. 1 outpost basically started to deploy this shortly after landing. The plan is coming, they must have discovered something.”
"This brings me to my second piece of news."
"Can you send me the address of the base station? I'm going to conduct an on-site inspection."
"no problem."
Soon, Lu Ning received the location and looked at the map. The distance was not too far.
"The second thing is that we saw something that looked like a ruin."
"Suspected ruins?"
"If it weren't for the video equipment, we must have thought that we saw it wrong, or it was an error caused by a mirage." Mo Lianren sighed, "It's like when you upgrade to the first level."
"First-level promotion...you mean that mountaintop castle?"
"Well, I very much suspect that it is a building that must meet certain conditions to appear. At least it only stayed in our perspective for five seconds, and then disappeared. Lu Ning, whether from the scene or from From a tourist perspective, this is not a good thing.”
"What was your team's reaction?"
"I can't cover up what everyone witnessed. I just warned everyone to be careful and pay attention to all communication bands. Our technician compass also tried to track it, but there was no result. We didn't stay there too long."
"...But it should be a fact that there are special buildings on this planet. In other words, the alien civilization that the Canglong Alliance has been wary of for a long time may really exist."
"Lu Ning, there is still a possibility." Mo Lianren reminded.
"Yes, the stars in this galaxy have reached middle-aged and old age. There may have been some civilizations on the many planets here, and they may have died or escaped." Lu Ning thought for a moment, "The existence of phantom beasts, Maybe it has something to do with that disease and this civilization. The name of our scene is Phantom Star Syndrome, and I think it’s this disease that I’m referring to—it’s probably the core of the main plot.”
"Yes, next we plan to move towards the equator of the planet, cross the equator and head to the southern hemisphere to see what is different. And if that civilization really existed, whether it was native or alien, the possibility of building only one building It’s very low, maybe we can encounter it again.”
"Then I wish you the best. By the way, even though it's redundant, I still have to say, don't die."
"Why did you mention this suddenly?"
"Because your state makes me feel a little worried. I have seen too many sudden deaths, which makes me always have a sense of fear about the pace of death. Perhaps my fear of death has not changed since the beginning. "
After a while, Mo Liancai replied: "Don't worry, I won't die that easily."

After the discussion, Lu Ning did not continue to reminisce with Mo Lian. She could talk as much as she wanted when she returned to Level 3, but the most important thing now was to figure out the various secrets of Huan Xing. She lit up her spades and recorder, and this time she brought more bayonets and spider silk. Half a team brought out five land speedboats from the production line. After loading them with the necessary things for going out, they set off directly. Go to base station number one.
The map shows that the base station is located in a Hetao plain area, rich in resources, and there is a large forest nearby, which is much denser and taller than the sparse forests in the mountainous areas. Five speedboats brought up five plumes of smoke and dust, taking Lu Ning and others over the mountains and ridges, and rushed out of the mountains in more than an hour.
"Ah ho!"
Spades likes this speedboat the most among this group of people. It is smooth, high-speed and exciting. The feeling of watching the scenery turn into a blur around him is undoubtedly more refreshing than on the star battleship, even though the two are not at all the same speed. Not an order of magnitude.
"Spade, pay attention to your surroundings. There may be high-level fantasy beasts in the wild. Due to problems at the outpost, we are not yet sure whether the alliance's current general danger level classification applies to them..."
"Spider Silk! You talk too much! I won't make that kind of careless mistake, otherwise I won't find it at all!" Spades interrupted Spider Silk, "You have been sitting in the central control room for more than two days. , it’s rare to come out, so let’s enjoy it!”
"Tsk." Spider Silk shook his head.
"Captain, based on the speed of travel after leaving the mountainous area, we can plan again. We can reach the target location in about three hours, but it will be close to dusk by then." Bayonet said.
"Well, we'll be staying at the base station tonight."
"What did you say? Captain? Going out for a camping trip? This is really great. Maybe I need to recall my whistle skills again..."
"There are no party arrangements, Spade, are you too excited?" Lu Ning immediately gave up the idea.
"After all, I live to make myself happy. There's nothing wrong with getting excited when encountering happy things, right? Bayonet, recorder, three o'clock and eleven o'clock, the distance is four point two and six point six."
There were two gunshots, and two blood flowers bloomed in the distance. If you look closely, they are the internal blood spurting caused by the headshot. The two D-level phantom beasts were killed by precise snipers before they could even get close.
"Not bad." Lu Ning praised.
"That's what I'm saying! And after updating the investigation system, I can also have the same responsibilities as the captain, so don't worry—"
Before he finished speaking, a laser beam hit his right front, plowing a trench on the ground. That was the attack from Lu Ning. A mouse crouched underground, like a motorcycle-sized mouse, had not even gotten out. Was cut in half.
"But one is missing. You are not yet used to the combined data application of particle detectors and shock detectors, so practice well."
"……oh."
The speed of the land speedboat is not to mention, the only disadvantage is that it easily raises smoke and dust, and the concealment is very poor. For example, the five tail smokes in the wilderness were quickly detected by another outpost.
"Captain Zhao, we found traces of the land speedboat on the radar. The other party did not issue a certification number." A man with a BW-019 number on his chest came down the stairs and entered a large conference room. There is only one person in this room now, who is clicking on the images on the big screen on the wall and inputting the corresponding content.
"Chen Han, you don't owe me anything. You don't have to lower your attitude all the time. Even my own team members won't talk to me with this attitude." Zhao Xihua turned to look at him and said, "Find a place to sit. Down."
"But you did help me a lot before... and as far as I know, Xiao Kong also came to this scene. I got the news from my subordinates, and it seems that the scene has already arranged our identities."
"Chen Han, the distribution center brings together people who have hatred towards each other just so that something like this can happen." Zhao Xihua snorted, "And I hate being led around. I don't necessarily have to follow the script they arrange. Act."
"It does sound a bit unwilling." Chen Han lowered his head, "But Team Zhao...Zhao Xihua, I will never forget the hatred in the last scene. I would rather regard this as an opportunity. And your team also You suffered losses in that encounter, right?”
"I know you want to drag me into trouble, Chen Han."
"No, you are not a person who can tolerate it. Although you appear to be good at making friends and are good at making friends. But I know that once you want to tolerate someone, that person will die, because immortality is not enough for you to vent your anger."
"Are you consciously seeing through me?"
"Zhao Xihua, I heard about your team when I was in the second level. It is undeniable that it is outstanding among independent teams, but after all, independent teams have many limitations. For example, members of large organizations like Xiao Kong..."
despair.
Zhao Xihua typed on the keyboard and didn't move again for a long time.
"I can hear that you really want to kill Xiao Kong because your... what should I say? Did your girlfriend die in his hands?"
"A simple and straightforward reason for revenge."
"Xiao Kong is your enemy, not mine. At least, he and I do not directly have strong hatred. Half of the deaths of our team members were due to accidents and were not in that confrontation."
"Designable person..."
"Chen Han, I have another opponent, which makes it difficult for me to allocate time to deal with the target of your revenge. In this scene, except for the person at the end of the chain of hatred, no one can escape, no... tourists. "
Chen Han was stunned.

When the Third Eye appears in the sky, the light from the stars is much dimmed. This celestial body is so huge that even the moon-like reflection effect is not very obvious. At the same time, it was impossible to observe the third eye through the thick layer of clouds and mist of the Phantom Star.
Lu Ning finally saw the outpost. She finally understood why Mo Lianren could see so many kinds of phantom beasts in just two days. In fact, there were quite a few phantom beasts that came along and tried to attack the speedboat. This was because the speedboat had a small target, and the most troublesome one was only one. C-level fantasy beast, looks like a horse, but is twice the size of a normal horse. Its back is covered with hard scales, and its mane grows from the middle of the scales. It is as hard as steel needles. Its four hooves can even hit the hard ground. Step on and make a hole. If Lu Ning hadn't directly ordered heavy firepower to suppress it to prevent it from approaching, I'm afraid this phantom beast would have broken up the convoy like an ancient cavalry charge.
This is also the reason why it was this time when we arrived at Base Station No. 1.
You can see some "grass" from a distance, and you can tell from its distinctive appearance that it is a disguised sentry robot, and it is naturally an old variety from decades ago. After Lu Ning approached the bushes, she began to send the certification number. After receiving the robot's response, she immediately took over the control of the robot through the alliance authorization, and then opened a path for herself.
Base Station No. 1 is in a slightly lower place. From the outside, it looks like a pile of rubble. All engineering equipment is underground like the outpost. After Lu Ning approached, a passageway opened and lights came on inside. .
"Okay, we should see what is left here." Lu Ning was the first to walk in the door.
