"The Brachiosaurus has been controlled by us, and next are the two troop transport ships." Yun Ming looked to the front and side of the bow, and a few lights flickered on the dark sea.
"It's difficult to use air flash from such a distance, isn't it?" Jiang Yao put up a pergola with her hands: "The two White Shark-class ships are sailing, and we can't get the positioning coordinates; and the distance between the Brachiosaurus and the two ships is already more than air. This is the limit of visual teleportation."
As a comrade in the dark army like the stalker, Jiang Yao naturally knows a lot about aerial flash. The conditions for launching the air flash are that the ability user must have the coordinates of the teleportation end point or visually see the destination, but now in the vast sea, both conditions are not met.
"Why go to all this trouble? We can't get to the troop transport ship, so just let the troop transport ship come to us." Yun Ming turned around and greeted: "Mr. Pu, ask a crew member to contact the troop transport ship and think of an excuse to ask them to stop. Wait for us."
Pu Car Waiter sat on the ground panting, sweating profusely as if he had just finished a triathlon: "Please let me slow down, hypnotizing these three people is too tiring."
"Ah, it's because each of them was stabbed once, and the physical pain affected the hypnotic effect." Yun Ming squinted at the culprit.
"What are you looking at?" Jiang Yao was angry.
"Ahem, it's nothing. If you think about it carefully, it's fine if you don't control the crew. Anyway, it's impossible for the soldiers on duty on the troop carrier to distinguish the voices of every crew member on the Brachiosaurus, so it's the same for everyone." Yun Ming cleared his throat and took the He contacted the troop transport through the microphone and made up a random reason to ask them to slow down and wait for the Brachiosaurus to catch up.
"nailed it."
The waiter raised his head and drank the soda he had brought from the crew living area in one gulp. He wiped his mouth and said with disdain: "Hey, why do you want me to wake these three up? There is no need for them at all."
"Just in case of emergencies."
Yun Ming's shameless reply was rewarded with an international friendly gesture from Pu Che Shi, who stood up with support on the ground: "Speaking of which, with the strength of the three of us, can we eat two hundred soldiers?"
Raymond dispatched more than a hundred soldiers to escort the ship. In addition to the original personnel on the two White Shark-class troop carriers, Yun Ming and others faced about 250 enemy troops.
"I have some confidence in Miss Jiang Yao." Yun Ming smiled and said: "I have also come into contact with several ability users. I found that once a person with abilities is promoted to the ghost level, his strength is like a reborn person. Ordinary people have already mastered this level by virtue of their numerical advantage. There is no threat to those with abilities."
"You are a newly promoted human who has only been awakened for two days, but you are very good at pretending." A female voice came from outside the cab, and Xu Xi pushed the door open: "And from what you mean, you want Jiang Yao to do it alone. Me?"
Xu Xi had previously stayed on the Haiya to set up the submarine's autopilot. In a few hours, the Sea Cliff will be equipped with a timed bomb and turn into a pile of marine garbage a hundred nautical miles away from here. At this moment, Xu Xi appeared on the Brachiosaurus, proving that she had solved the task of destroying the Haiya.
In Yun Ming's original plan, after everyone rescued the target, they still left the sea area where the incident occurred on the Haiya. But on the plane flying from Kuala Lumpur to Sihanoukville, Xu Xi proposed to rearrange the retreat route so that the Brachiosaurus, which would have been destroyed without leaving a trace in the original plan, could replace the Haiya.
Compared with the Haiya, the size of the Brachiosaurus was like a living target, but Xu Xi had a very "convincing" explanation: This was Tiance's arrangement.
Of course Yun Ming was unwilling to change his mind, but Xu Xi insisted on this retreat route and would not let go, so in the end, Yun Ming agreed with difficulty.
"Having dealt with the Haiya so neatly, there is no room for maneuver now." Yun Ming showed no expression on his face, but a warning bell sounded in his heart: "This woman is really difficult to deal with."
Twenty hours ago, the "Conflict for Hegemony" game conference room.
"Sorry, I'm late." A tall, thin man wearing the default attire of the game system opened the door and walked in. Who else could he be if he wasn't Zhong Yi.
"Ah, it's okay. I just logged in." Yun Ming fiddled with the [Name Change Card] and [Magic Stickers*2] he just bought in his hand: "Brother Zhong, did you check into the hotel smoothly?"
Zhong Yi nodded: "As expected of the secret army, the fake evidence used is top-notch."
"Then I'm relieved. I was worried before that they would play tricks on a place like this." The "them" Yun Ming said undoubtedly refers to Xu Xi and Jiang Yao.
"You are overly worried about this. I believe Commander Xu will not abandon the watermelon to pick up the sesame seeds."
"Because we're still useful to her?"
"right."
Yun Ming rocked his office chair slightly and said thoughtfully: "It's just a joke at fifty steps and a hundred steps at a time. It's just a relationship of mutual use."
"So, as I thought, is there anything disadvantageous to them in the plan you arranged?" Since Zhong Yi used this wording, it was obvious that he had noticed something.
"I can't say it's disadvantageous. I think it's just a trick on them."
Zhong Yi raised his eyes: "Is there any difference between the two?"
Yun Ming waved his hand: "It doesn't make much sense to discuss this now, because Xu Xi insisted on using the Brachiosaurus as an evacuation tool, which directly destroyed the back-up plan I arranged on the Haiya."
"You arranged a back-up on the Sea Cliff? When?"
"It's not that troublesome. My original plan was to have the car attendant take him to the submarine first after rescuing the target, while the two secret troops and I stayed in the fleet to mop up the rear."
"I know that the technology in this world is developing well. Submarines used for scientific research are all equipped with automatic driving functions. Just set the destination and the Sea Cliff will drive to Bandar Seri Begawan by itself."
"Pu Chai Shi can't drive a submarine, but there will be no problem in setting up automatic driving. I will let him activate the self-driving function after taking the target Shanghai Cliff, and I..."
Yun Ming opened and closed the five fingers of his hands, and uttered onomatopoeia in conjunction with his mouth: "Pah-pah, I will use the air to dodge back to the Sea Cliff, then the submarine will start and run quickly to meet you in Bandar Seri Begawan." "
"It is indeed a good way to get rid of control. After we get the hostages, we can bypass them and negotiate directly with Jin." The matter of getting rid of Xu Xi and Jiang Yaoge is obviously not within the scope of Zhong Yi's consideration:
"If we didn't know that our customers are gold, the above operations would take a lot of time, but it would be much easier if we knew."
"During my short career as a mercenary, I also encountered a similar situation this time," Yun Ming slowly recalled: "Both or multiple parties in the cooperation have no basis of trust at all. Anyone may be behind the scenes at any time and at any time. Black gun, when the mission is completed, it means the breakdown of the cooperative relationship."
"Since there is no trust, how can we talk about betrayal?"
Zhong Yi paced back and forth in the conference room: "You don't have to explain this to me. Betrayal of an imaginary compromise and an enemy who was beaten to death not long ago will not cause me psychological pressure."
"What Brother Zhong said is true." Yun Ming gave a thumbs up.
"Is it because Xu Xi changed your plan that you followed suit and changed the personnel arrangement in your original plan?"
"That's right. In the original plan, the Brachiosaurus was going to be destroyed, and the crew didn't have to exert any effort to control it. The ones who were assigned to Bandar Seri Begawan were supposed to be the Chariot Attendants, and you went with them."
"Because in your planned plan, there will be no survivors in the entire escort fleet, so why don't you let Jiang Yao and I fight to clear the troops quickly?"
"Well, in addition to that, it also means protecting Pu Cha Shi. His ability is too cheating, and it can also have a good effect on ability users. However, frontal combat is not suitable for him. It is better to send him to the rear. .”
Zhong Yi's eyes flickered uncertainly: "Are you saying that one of Xu Xi's main purposes of leaving Pu Che Chai on the Haiya is to control him when necessary so that we can use him as a deterrent?"
"Not necessarily. Xu Xi's approach did stabilize their safety, but she may not have thought of this herself." Yun Ming pointed his index finger on his temple: "Her ability is Tiance, and Lu Like the hidden oracle, it is a precognitive ability that knows what it is but does not know why. Although my layout was destroyed by her, it is difficult for her to deduce every step from the results of Tiance."
"Actually, the current personnel arrangement is not bad. At least I ask myself that I can't stay in the same room with them for too long. Xu Xi set up BTS, and my friends died at the hands of the secret army; and Jiang Yao has the lives of many of my subordinates in his hands." Zhong Yi put his hand into his pocket, and after searching for nothing, he realized that he was in a game, and naturally there would be no cigarettes in his pocket that were easily accessible in reality.
"It can be seen that the breakfast we had in the safe house in Kuala Lumpur yesterday is still fresh in my mind. You tried very hard to show that you cooperated equally regardless of previous grudges. How should I put it..." Yun Ming thought for a while: "You used too much force. "
"I'm really not a good actor."
"It doesn't matter, just the car attendant is fine. He plays the role of "Humans and Animals Are Harmless" and "Recognizing Thieves as Fathers". How did such an innocent second generation get recruited into BTS?"
"The Pu family considers the long-term development of the family's interests, so of course they have to send one of their own people to Fortress No. 5 to keep an eye on them. This kind of thing is far away from the center of family power, and is essentially the same as distributing. The status of the Pu chariot attendant in the Pu family is neither high nor low. He has certain strength and obviously has no ambition to decentralize power within the family, so the Pu family sent him here. But after all, he was here to supervise the work. It would not be good to arrange for him to fight alien creatures, so Lu Yin put him on the ninth floor. The branch will give a pawn to the torture officer."
"Well, based on my understanding of Pu Gongzi's character, he should be quite happy as Bi Ma Wen." Yun Ming recalled the scene when the two first met. Pu Che Shi's unique torture method is definitely the only one in this family. .
Zhong Yi added: "Although he is not actually a member of BTS, he is our companion, so..."
Before he finished speaking, Yun Ming already understood: "Brother Zhong, don't worry, personal relationships aside, his ability will be of great help to us no matter where we live in the future."
The above conversation took place after Yun Ming cleared the script of "I am the Protagonist".
Let us recall a conversation between Yun Ming and Xu Xi when the escort fleet set off:
"Is the Sea Cliff okay?"
"Well, its speed is faster than the fleet, so it can keep up."
"Okay. Miss Xu, why are you alone and where are the two of them?"
"Xiao Jiang is catching up on his sleep, and Master Pu is playing games."
"Uh..."Conflict for Hegemony"?"
"Yeah, it hasn't stopped since midnight. By the way, are you so addicted to games?"
"Haha, the voyage is boring after all..."
Yun Ming's explanation was the truth, but he didn't mention another reason: he and Zhong Yi connected with each other through "Conflict for Hegemony".
When the three of them were still in the safe house in Kuala Lumpur and packing their things to go to Sihanoukville Port, Zhong Yi asked the three of them to take the brainwave repeaters with them. Yun Ming quickly figured out the purpose of doing this: after all, no matter how playful a person is, it is impossible for him to carry a gaming device with him while performing a mission.
As for Pu Che Shi...he doesn't know anything and is really playing games. Considering that "if you want to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive yourself", neither Yun Ming nor Zhong Yi mentioned to him that they were discussing tactics in the game.
Time returns to the present.
"You are a newly promoted human who has only been awakened for two days, but you are very good at pretending."
"And from what you're saying, do you want Jiang Yao to do it alone?" Xu Xi's tone sounded like he was questioning.
Yun Ming responded with a smile:
"yes."
