A week after the advance team of Jiang Zheng and others set off, the follow-up engineering team, led by Xiao Tian, finally left Binhai City with a variety of equipment, preparing to head to the new city to start their work.
The advance force's load is limited, so they don't waste precious load on communications equipment.
And there is only one week. After the follow-up troops arrive, the advance troops will naturally be able to resume contact.
Because the engineering troops had to bring a lot of things, they were not as careful as the advance troops this time. Instead, together with the normal hunting troops, a large group of people walked openly and openly towards the new city.
After arriving at a certain distance from the new city, Xiao Tiancai and his engineering troops quietly separated from the main force and followed the signal to Jiang Zheng's current temporary base.
The advance troops cannot carry communication devices, but they also carry a kind of equipment that can send out special signals. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for Xiao Tian and others to find the hidden advance troops in the deep mountains and forests.
The engineering troops carried a lot of equipment and equipment, but because most of them were physical enhancement type ability users, they moved very fast.
The reason why they were racing against time was not only that the task of developing a new city was urgent, but also that they wanted to quickly bring new supplies to Jiang Zheng and the others.
The main task of the advance force is to find and set up a safe and secret temporary base for the subsequent large forces, and at the same time inspect the situation near the new city again to prevent other accidents from happening here after the last inspection. Condition.
For example, will there be a new group of alien beasts that will occupy this place again and make it their territory? Under these conditions, the advance troops would not bring too much or too much in terms of food, drink and other survival supplies.
At the same time, Jiang Zheng and the others certainly did not dare to open fire in order to hide their traces. Therefore, in the understanding of Xiao Tian and others, the advance troops not only had to take risks to build a garrison this week, but also had to feed themselves with the convenience food they brought. The days should be It's been a bit hard.
Thinking of this, everyone in the engineering team couldn't help but become even more silent, and the pace of advancement became faster and faster.
... After walking for about half an hour, Xiao Tian finally followed the signal and came to a hilltop.
"Is this really something that you can do..." Xiao Tian looked at a mountain that was almost fifty meters high in front of him. He immediately thought that Jiang Zheng should have used his ability to control the earth element to dig directly into the mountain. A space was created to serve as a temporary residence.
As for how to use such a small hill to accommodate the engineering team's personnel and equipment, Xiao Tian quickly focused on the underground.
Because he has been able to detect a very familiar earth element energy fluctuation underground in the mountain.
Although it was very slight, as Xiao Tian's recognized love rival, he would not mistake that aura.
"I didn't expect that your mastery of elemental abilities is so good!" According to Xiao Tian's understanding, if Jiang Zheng only uses his abilities to open up a place that can accommodate dozens of people, he might be able to do it within a week, but if he adds If you add the pile of equipment from the engineering force, the difficulty of building the required underground space will increase exponentially.
Without waiting too long, the patrol members of the advance team soon discovered the arrival of the follow-up troops.
"Vice Commander Xiao!" A patrol member saluted Xiao Tian and said at the same time: "Vice Commander Jiang has completed the renovation of the station and is waiting for you to come!"
"Well, take us there first." After confirming the other party's identity, Xiao Tian no longer delayed, and quickly greeted everyone to follow the patrol member into the forest.
For everyone's future work and safety considerations, Jiang Zheng did not place the exit of the underground station directly near the top of the mountain, but placed it in the forest about five hundred meters away from the mountain.
"Five hundred meters of underground passage? How strong has Jiang Zheng become now? Didn't he use all his strength when he fought against Vice Commander Du last time?" Question after question asked Xiao Tian His mind kept flashing, especially when he and the engineering troops walked together in the tunnel that was five meters underground and wide enough to pass the largest equipment of the engineering troops, he became increasingly uneasy.
Originally, there was an absolute gap in strength between him and Jiang Zheng. Originally, Xiao Tian thought that he could slowly catch up after he advanced to the sixth level in the past few years.
However, judging from the opponent's current progress rate, I am afraid that even if he can successfully advance, Jiang Zheng will most likely not be far from the seventh level by then.
"Is this the terror of genius? Jiang Zheng, do I think I still underestimate you even though I valued you so much before?" Xiao Tian's heart became heavier and heavier, and before he knew it, the five-hundred-meter underground passage had arrived. At the end.
"Deputy Commander Xiao, we are here." Following the reminder from the leader, Xiao Tian quickly recovered his mind. We are still on a mission now, not the time to think about those personal grudges.
However, before Xiao Tian could adjust his condition and prepare for a formal handover with Jiang Zheng, a faint fishy smell suddenly came from not far away.
"Brother Xiao is here. Thank you for your hard work on this journey." Jiang Zheng stepped forward and saluted seriously to Xiao Tian and others.
But now Xiao Tian did not retaliate as usual, but looked at the pots behind Jiang Zheng with a look of disbelief on his face.
"How dare you build a fire underground? And where did the crabs and fish in it come from?" In fact, there is another sentence Xiao Tian didn't say, that is, how could Jiang Zheng and the others not only do a good job in such a tight time in a week, After completing the original tasks, can you still have the energy to improve your life?
As for the possibility of being cunning and lazy on the task, Xiao Tian never considered that aspect because he knew Jiang Zheng was not that kind of person.
"What are you talking about? The giant claw crab and the powerful crocodile were sent by the tribe. Didn't they occupy the territory a while ago? These are the original owners of those territories." Jiang Zheng explained with a smile.
"As for the issue of lighting a fire, you don't have to worry about that. Tulong Jiejie has specially arranged for two Tulong brothers to sort out the exhaust emissions for us. Besides, we don't open fire every day. Isn't this to welcome you here?" Xiao Tian reluctantly accepted Jiang Zheng's explanation.
His five senses are very sensitive, and he did not notice anything wrong with the air in the cave when he came in just now.
Originally, Xiao Tian only thought that Jiang Zheng had made a special vent, but he didn't expect that there were other situations.
After a simple meal of river fresh food, Jiang Zheng and Xiao Tian quickly got into work mode. But in the subsequent narration, Xiao Tian's face slowly showed an expression of disbelief.
