Chapter 288: Chapter 287: Now Is Just the Beginning Chapter 288: Chapter 287: Now Is Just the Beginning Luo Ning and his group arrived just as Liao You was preparing to rest.
He ca out of his tent, “Why did you suddenly co over? Is sothing the matter?”
Luo Ning recounted the incidents they had encountered earlier and also played the recording from his phone watch for him to hear.
Liao You understood and his expression turned ugly, gritting his teeth he said, “I didn’t expect those two to be traitors.”
One of them was his lieutenant and the other was soone he had known for many years.
However, he quickly recalled that the lieutenant’s father had taken so people and left the military base.
It seed they had been colluding with another base for a long while, slowly undermining their own base.
Seeing that he understood, Jin Feiyang was hit hard once again.
He couldn’t help asking, “Can you understand this language?”
Liao You glanced at him aningfully, “Of course I can! Although it’s not an international lingua franca, it is considered a local dialect of the city, can’t you understand it?”
Jin Feiyang, “…” He just wanted to curse inwardly.
The organizers really knew how to play, turning this minority language into the local dialect of the city. How many of the teams that ca in could understand it?
The teams from the Southern Ocean might understand it, but it was very unfriendly to everyone else.
After all, most residents of the city probably used the dialect for private communication.
He gave a wry smile, “My family moved here from another place, so I’m not very familiar with the local dialect and can’t understand it.”
Liao You asked in surprise, “None of you understand it?”
Jin Feiyang imdiately pointed at Luo Ning, “No, they can all understand it.”
Liao You, still sowhat skeptical, then spoke a few sentences to Luo Ning in the dialect.
Luo Ning didn’t hesitate and imdiately started conversing with him in the dialect.
Except for Bo Xuan, who could understand a little bit, Jin Feiyang and the others were completely baffled.
However, they also knew this was Liao You testing them, and fortunately, Luo Ning passed the test.
After confirming Luo Ning was a local, Liao You also felt relieved.
With the apocalypse, the network suddenly collapsed, and their military base could no longer retrieve personal identities.
“Thank you for coming to report, otherwise, we would have been in trouble.”
Liao You thanked them and then smilingly said, “I’m going to arrange for an ambush here, you guys go rest first.”
If the arsenal and Luo Ning were stolen by the other side, he wouldn’t have the face to return to the base to report.
This ti, it really was a lucky unintentional discovery by Luo Ning.
Luo Ning smiled, “Don’t ntion it, we are now part of the base as well, naturally, we cannot let the other side succeed.”
“If you need help, just call us.”
Liao You thought for a mont and handed them a few walkie-talkies, “Take these, if there’s anything, we’ll contact each other using these.”
This was also an acknowledgnt that Luo Ning and his group were part of the base.
“Okay.”
Luo Ning and his group took the walkie-talkies, tuned the frequency with Liao You, and then left first.
Fan Ye toyed with the palm-sized walkie-talkie and laughed, “Brother Ning, you really have a way, even the military’s special walkie-talkies are in our hands now.”
These walkie-talkies were not sothing anyone who entered the base could have, only the original military personnel had them.
Getting their hands on these also ant being acknowledged by the military.
If other teams knew about this, they would probably be shocked; their efficiency seed too fast.
Luo Ning laughed, “Didn’t I say I would take you all under my wing? This is just the beginning.”
Fan Ye chuckled, “Brother Ning is mighty!”
He asked, “By the way, are we going to help in a bit?”
Luo Ning shook her head, “No need, if Liao You can’t handle this minor issue, then they won’t be able to keep this military warehouse safe either.”
She added another line, “Cleaning up traitors, how to negotiate with the upper echelons of another base, it’s better we don’t get involved in these matters.”
Tonight there should be no blazing battles, after all, it is the apocalypse now, and even though there are contests for power and resources, most leaders are concerned with the survival of humanity.
If a fight does break out, the casualties will undoubtedly be significant—sothing neither side wants to see.
The main point is which side wins and who gains the negotiating power, which might also involve so confidential information.
Their presence would just be a hindrance.
Bo Xuan laughed, “Right, we shouldn’t interfere.”
Luo Ning and he were on the sa page again.
So, they went to the resource warehouse, grabbed tents and sleeping bags, found a quiet and secluded warehouse, locked the door, and slept soundly.
Anyway, if anything ca up, Liao You would call them over the intercom.
They slept until daybreak.
Luo Ning and the others then went to find Liao You.
Seeing him in a good mood and smiling, they guessed that last night’s incident had been handled smoothly.
Luo Ning asked, “Captain Liao, are we going back to the base today?”
Presumably, those who haven’t got the first clue today would be eager to co to find them and buy clues.
Liao You, his face full of smiles, said, “Yes, I was just about to call you to discuss this.”
“Our base’s other two mbers will arrive soon. Luo Ning, could you please input their identities into the smart lock system, then we can head back.”
Seeing that Luo Ning and her group hadn’t asked about last night’s events, he didn’t bring it up voluntarily, and was even more pleased that they had the tact to do so.
“I’ve applied for the best villa in the base’s secure area for you. Your team can all stay together.”
He smiled and said, “When we get back, I’ll take you there to choose one, and then have so resources sent over to you.”
Luo Ning had made comndable achievents last night; these were all part of her reward, though it wasn’t explicitly stated.
Luo Ning certainly understood his implication, “That’s very kind of you, thanks Captain Liao.”
Liao You waved his hand, “No need for formalities, co to if you need anything.”
After chatting for a while, the people sent from the base arrived.
Luo Ning re-entered their identities for the locks.
Both tried and succeeded, expressing their gratitude to Luo Ning.
Liao You also handed over the responsibility of guarding the military warehouse to them.
After loading the weapons onto the truck and preparing everything.
Liao You suddenly rembered an issue, “Luo Ning, do you want to take your helicopter back to the base now?”
Luo Ning replied with a smile, “If it’s convenient, we’d like to take it back to the base today since we likely won’t be coming here again.”
Liao You understood, “Can your people fly the helicopter?”
They needed to fly a few helicopters themselves to transport the most critical weapons back to the base, so they couldn’t spare anyone to help Luo Ning and her team.
Luo Ning replied, “We have soone here who can fly it, don’t worry.”
Liao You sighed in relief, “Alright then, I’ll also be returning in a helicopter. You guys just follow us.”
“Okay!”
Then Liao You led Luo Ning and her team to the special location where the helicopters were parked, allowing them to pick one for themselves.
Since it had been promised, they wouldn’t be stingy about it.
Liao You graciously stepped out, letting them discuss on their own.
Not only were there helicopters there, but there were also fighter jets, which Fan Ye and his group eyed greedily.
Although they couldn’t fly fighter jets, that didn’t stop them from liking them.
They all took turns experiencing it and only then ca down satisfied.
