Chen Gu hesitated slightly as the lieutenant colonel quickly signaled the convoy behind to catch up, opening a heavy armored vehicle to reveal rows of neatly arranged individual cha.
"Please believe , I won't be a burden to you!"
Chen Gu thought for a mont. Chasing these attackers also required warriors on the periphery to be on guard.
He nodded. "Alright, take your elites and join us."
"Yes, sir!" The lieutenant colonel was elated, saluting forcefully before turning and shouting at his warriors, "You little bastards, I've managed to secure a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity for you. You'll have the honor to fight shoulder to shoulder with His Excellency Volunteer Fighter Spirit!
"Everyone, be sharp, and show what you can do!
"Now, those who believe their cha piloting skills are exceptional, step forward..."
"!"
"!"
"!"
The warriors roared eagerly, raising their hands high and jostling to the front.
Chen Gu turned to Julia and said, "It's not that I'm discriminating against you, but this battle is bound to be extrely dangerous. Elite military cha warriors represent the minimum standard of strength for this operation."
Julia opened her mouth, glanced at the individual cha inside the heavy grappler vehicles, and then at her own small-caliber sidearm, helplessly holstering the weapon again.
The lieutenant colonel quickly selected fifty n, who donned individual cha and set off following Chen Gu. The professionals from the Bureau of Mystic Security walked in front, with everyone following Chen Gu's lead.
The lieutenant colonel looked at Chen Gu's retreating figure. From certain subtle gestures, he could clearly sense that Volunteer Fighter Spirit was even more powerful and confident than before. Yet, just like in the old days, his valiant, advancing figure always brought a sense of reassurance.
Chen Gu was no longer the inexperienced man he had once been. His direction after performing Quantum Divination was much clearer. After leaving the town, his speed increased. Upon entering the mountainous area, the individual cha even had to activate their rocket thrusters just to keep up with him.
After charging through the rough mountain terrain for over two hundred kiloters, the team zipped past the mouth of a canyon.
Suddenly, the lieutenant colonel's voice ca through, "Your Excellency!"
Chen Gu stopped, and the lieutenant colonel turned around, looking puzzled at a position above the canyon. "There, there's a camouflaged surveillance device!"
"Hmm?" Chen Gu had been tracking the Claw Master's position and had not activated the Radiation Field, so his control over his surroundings had diminished.
The lieutenant colonel's cha was a high-end model equipped with a high-power active scanning device, which issued a warning as they passed the mountain pass.
Chen Gu asked, "There shouldn't be any military secret bases here."
The lieutenant colonel assured, "Definitely not."
Such perfectly disguised surveillance equipnt was definitely high-end and usually military procurent. Chen Gu had already figured it out. Focusing on the device, he suddenly raised his hand. A 'rock' shot up into the air under his control with a SNAP, tearing the wiring beneath and causing electrical sparks to flash.
Chen Gu beckoned, and the surveillance device flew back to him. The lieutenant colonel fiddled with it and, his expression changing, said, "It's a Star State model!"
The warriors were enraged, their various weapons imdiately taken off safety. "They've infiltrated our territory, kill them!"
Chen Gu's brow furrowed. The Star State's fondness for playing duplicitous gas was no secret in the Star Sea. People of this era were generally no longer fooled by the Star State's glossy propaganda slogans.
Whether against enemies or allies, they always played their shady tricks equally.
Even among the four major Star Nations, none could escape the Star State's underhanded tactics.
Four years ago, their infiltration efforts within the Empire were definitively exposed by the Empire's intelligence departnt, causing quite a diplomatic stir and nearly leading to the mutual withdrawal of ambassadors.
If not for the external pressure from the Alien Insect Race, given the Empire's temperant, it might have even gone to war with the Star State.
Therefore, finding Star State military equipnt within the Confederation didn't surprise Chen Gu. But why here? Gugelota Star was quite remote and backward, not a strategic location at all. With its sparse population, there was no sense in the Star State infiltrating this place.
Chen Gu looked back at Wu Yihuo. "Can you trace the control location behind this device?"
Wu Yihuo chuckled. "Leave it to ."
The lieutenant colonel, unaware of Wu Yihuo's background, kindly reminded, "This is military equipnt. Its security level is not on the sa level as those civilian ones."
Wu Yihuo chuckled again, replying, "Don't worry." As he started working, he made a self-deprecating comnt, "I feel that the biggest help I provide to the instructor isn't my professional ability, but my expertise."
"Hahaha."
Chen Gu smiled too. His hacking skills were likely on the 'civilian' level the lieutenant colonel ntioned. Therefore, he tactfully refrained from taking action himself.
Wu Yihuo took out a number of electronic devices unfamiliar to ordinary people. After so ten-odd minutes of operation, he lightly tapped with his finger. WHOOSH! A holographic projection of the terrain appeared amidst the group.
On it, dozens of red dots surrounded a red triangle in the middle.
One of the red dots blinked erratically.
Wu Yihuo explained, "This is the surveillance device that the instructor just removed. It's a node in the entire network.
"Look, these surveillance devices form a closed monitoring network, all sending data back here."
