The "mascot" was squinting his eyes to see the glimmer of dawn in the east. She might not see much of this in the coming days.
"Sister Maoyan, are you okay?" Jin Ying's voice came through the team channel.
Maoyan signaled her to "continue", and the simple gestures were displayed through the blood-stained exoskeleton armor, which gave her a colder flavor that she didn't have originally.
In this regard, Maoyan still lacks consciousness.
She motioned for Jin Ying to spray more odor masking agent here, and then wrap it with optical camouflage film to make the preparatory work more thorough. After all, she was the first one to enter the underground maze, not anyone else.
Jin Ying patiently continued to help. On the other side, Fries, the commander of this operation, also came over, knelt down on one knee, signaled Maoyan to lift her feet in turn, and sprayed fiercely at the metal structure under her feet to avoid leaking flaws.
"Suddenly I wish I had a ring in my hand." At times like this, Frith never kept his mouth shut. "You know, before you disappear into the darkness, you are literally glowing."
"Is this a curse?"
"No...when you enter the darkness, you take away all the light."
"So it's a curse! I will remember the dream I gave you when I die."
Maoyan was completely indifferent to this incomprehensible talk. She did not continue and only corrected the route with Frith through the team channel.
Fifteen minutes later, when the sunlight from the eastern sky spread over the water and mud, Maoyan made another "ok" gesture and followed the newly dug tunnel leading to the underground maze. Slowly descending, and soon disappeared from the sight of others.
Jin Ying followed closely behind her, performing a personal protection mission.
As for the others, it depends on Frith's orders.
The latter stood with his hands on his hips for a few minutes. After receiving the "safe and passable" signal from the cat's eye, he motioned for the members of the combat team to follow one after another.
Oh, and those big guys in the back.
Cat's Eye walks in the "underground labyrinth" built by the Crocodile Corps... to be precise, it's the edge.
Due to the differences in body size and movement patterns between odontocrocodiles and humans, the maze they constructed could not take into account the height and width of a "human + exoskeleton" scale. Most of the real "underground labyrinth" is a structure of narrow holes that are out of reach. Only some areas connected to caves and rivers can barely accommodate human beings.
One can imagine what kind of "watching" this type of extremely limited area will be under.
In fact, the area where the cat's eye slowly passes is also filled with a vague mist of miasma, as well as holes that did not exist when artificially dug. These are all traces of the recent existence of the aberration.
What Maoyan is doing now is definitely not a "mascot" job, but extremely high-risk forward reconnaissance, the kind that could get trapped inside at any time.
This kind of work is necessary. The combat group she belongs to needs at least a place where they can form a formation, so that subsequent exploration can be possible.
Maoyan became more and more familiar with this kind of work.
After several years of field operations, Maoyan has been recognized by the military's front-line operators for her unique abilities, extraordinary courage and efficient cooperation.
Of course, it was only in recent months that she had tried more and more proactively at such a dangerous level as today. This also made her become the non-staff member that the military cooperates with most frequently in Xia City - she has been away from home for two consecutive months, and her popularity is even more than that of some B-level experts.
Excluding subtle psychological factors and purely discussing technical aspects, Maoyan does have extraordinary abilities that are very suitable for the actions of a military squad.
According to Ronan, her spiritual sensing ability that is close to the material level is actually quite close to the ability and quality of the school of creation that Dean Wan has been advocating. They are both the perception and application of the seemingly general "physical nature". It combines information factors from multiple material levels to make intuitive judgments.
This form is a bit like the physical side, and a bit like a psychic, somewhere in between, subtle and mysterious... Oh, this kind of mysterious description can only be used in the past to describe her still... There is no talent that is fully articulated.
Ronan has actually given Maoyan a clear direction:
He is learning from Dean Wan, using the School of Creation’s systematic explanation of all things, reorganizing and fine-tuning his own innate sensing structure, using himself as the fulcrum, expanding his intervention outwards, and completing deeper applications.
It's just that Maoyan is lazy and a little rebellious. The superficial reason given for her advice to Ronan is that she "doesn't want to exist like a humanoid bat." As for her true thoughts, there is no need to dig into it in such detail.
But the problem is that as a believer of Ronan, no matter how unwilling she is, she is in such an environment and is constantly receiving the infusion of huge information energy. She must digest it... or at least resist it, right?
The constant pressure forced her to change, and the powerful restraining force made it difficult for her not to make progress.
Just like at this moment, her steps were slow, but the spiritual waves of mental induction had penetrated countless holes and smaller gaps in the soil, and even pushed forward layer by layer against the underground water flow.
Its coverage area is not particularly wide, but it can form subtle interference with the material level. It is like a turned-on radar, receiving reflection bands from various material structures; it is also like a standing, highly sensitive spider web that passively The form captures subtle changes coming from all directions.
The difference between movement and stillness, the difference in physical properties between everything, these details are right before your eyes. Although she cannot grasp the deep legal principles in related fields like Ronan, she can rely on the corresponding

information, we can also make certain judgments.
Closer to home, she can evaluate the safety factor of the underground assembly area and confirm that there are no highly dangerous aberrations lurking nearby.
Looking further, she was able to draw a relatively macro conclusion.
To put it simply: Huaicheng has really been indifferent in recent years.
No wonder the Poison Swamp area has become a stubborn problem on the outskirts of their city. They are completely left to the Tooth Crocodile Corps to carry out underground fortification operations in relevant areas.
Excluding the areas currently being worked on, in rivers, under tidal flats, and in the depths of spreading and connected strata, the complexity of underground fortifications has exceeded many people's imagination.
This is relatively static stuff.
At the dynamic level, as Professor Ding and other experts estimated, there was a large-scale commotion, which continued to act deep in the complex underground labyrinth, forming a pressure that was also feared by the ferocious crocodiles of the Crocodile Corps.
As for what the details of the commotion are, this is the realm of auxiliary computing. Corresponding plug-in hardware and algorithms are needed to assist in processing more complex information.
Well, it is the realm of movements and spiritual cores that Ronan mentioned.
But this kind of "movement" is different from that of the Dark Blue Walkers who are quickly following behind. It is not the internal movement that dominates the changes in the core structure of the form and spirit, but is really just an auxiliary.
The cat's eye is naturally worn. This movement was made by Dean Wan. Due to the limitations of materials and computing chips, it is a bit large and needs to be mounted on the exoskeleton armor. Fortunately, it is not obvious when working in the field.
This set of external movement equipment has greatly improved Maoyan's information processing capabilities, allowing her to have more energy to adjust the focus and corresponding structure of mental induction.
Of course, there are many things that cannot be explained clearly in this kind of ability construction, and the external expression may not be so vividly reflected.
Just do what a worker should do.
Maoyan understands this.
From the rear, Frith and other combat team members had followed up in time and naturally changed their formation to wrap Maoyan and Jin Ying in a relatively safe central area.
The most dangerous job was completed, and Jin Ying, who had been following silently, breathed a sigh of relief. But this does not mean that Maoyan’s work ends here.
In fact, her daily routine has just begun.
The team that had assembled underground began to dig deeper into the underground maze, avoiding the dense area of the Tooth Crocodile Corps as much as possible according to the original plan.
This is true "excavation", limited by the "size" of the underground labyrinth. Even if they select the most ideal underground space structure within dozens of square kilometers, there is still a lot of civil work to be completed.
To do this, they even carry the heaviest equipment capable of going underground.
"Let's get started."
"Boss, when these big guys turn on their phones later, are you sure we won't be overwhelmed by the crocodile?"
"At least not yet. As for the others, we need Miss Maoyan to provide early warning."
"Okay." Maoyan answered simply.
Fries encouraged everyone and relieved everyone: "A small force will not be enough for us; as for a large force, we don't have to bear any burden. Currently, reconnaissance and excavation at multiple points are being carried out simultaneously. Even if the Crocodile Corps is restless, it will not be enough for us." There will be some diversion.”
"Boss, I heard that the observation team of the Air Force has also arrived?"
"uh-huh."
"Is it the legendary seventh generation?"
"I don't know... It is said that we were originally going to Xia City, but something went wrong in Huaicheng, and the airship landed here directly. Well, maybe we can enjoy naval gun support and so on."
"It would be nice if we don't get blasted into the sky with the crocodile."
"What are you thinking about? The most they can do is bury them together!"
Freese is, after all, an outspoken guy. A few simple exchanges on the team channel revealed his true form.
Fortunately, Maoyan and other team members have long been accustomed to this routine, so she directly contacted the team maintenance engineer:
"How is the little turtle doing?"
"The inspection of the dx2 intelligent dual-type robot is completed."
"Thank you for permission transfer."
"Here, little turtle, go to mommy."
"roll."
The DX2 underground special robot named "Little Turtle" entered a bottomless hole in front of him without any temper, and soon went far away.
Maoyan obtained its highest control authority, showing an interesting career advancement developed during long-term cooperation with the military:
Drone operator.
Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
