Chapter 1827: Chapter 1826: Gladly Accompany
Ling Feng tracked down the car, but didn’t see anyone, and was montarily stunned.
A mont later, he arrived at the scene and discovered that the car had been abandoned. The tires were deflated, and the gas tank had several holes made by so hard object.
Driving it away wasn’t possible anymore; these cars were now scrapped right here.
Ling Feng turned his head and looked around, but didn’t see any more tire marks, and he squinted his eyes.
Those people left no trace and just disappeared like that.
He knew that people couldn’t just vanish into thin air; the most likely way they left was by helicopter!
This kind of thing wasn’t happening for the first ti.
Previously, when Aflek and others were searching for treasure in this desert, they also arrived by helicopter.
Thinking of this, Ling Feng imdiately rembered that nearby there was an Arican airfield!
With that thought, he cald down, found a big rock to sit on, and took out his phone to call Gu Li.
At this mont, Gu Li was already back in the office on Lingyun Island. Upon connecting the call, he imdiately asked, "Boss, did you find them?"
"No, they abandoned the car and left, probably by helicopter!"
Ling Feng said, then continued, "Ah Min isn’t here, can you help
find out where the Arican base nearby is?"
"I can!"
Gu Li nodded, then said, "But boss, I think the likelihood of Arican direct involvent is low; within a thousand kiloters around the oil field, it’s not just an Arican base!"
"Oh?"
Ling Feng was taken aback and asked, "Then who else? There wouldn’t be German ones, would there?"
"There aren’t, but because of the long-standing wars in the Middle East, apart from the Aricans, there are other countries with troops nearby as well. I’ll send you the information in a mont!" Gu Li said.
Ling Feng nodded, "Alright, make it detailed. I’ll be waiting for your ssage!"
After speaking, he hung up the phone and took out his tablet.
A few minutes later, information arrived via satellite communication.
He opened it up and saw that the map had been marked, revealing several military bases indeed.
Ling Feng looked at them one by one and fell into thought.
At this mont, his phone rang; it was Lin Xue calling.
Seeing the na, he answered and asked, "What’s up?"
"You’re already over at the oil field, right?" Lin Xue asked.
"Yes, not only there but also tracking the attackers. Is there a problem?" Ling Feng asked.
Hearing his tone, Lin Xue sighed, "I know you’re very angry right now, but don’t rush; I’ll direct your next actions!"
After saying that, she imdiately continued, "The people who attacked the oil field are very likely a group of local militia; these are folks with little combat ability, but they’re backed by the French!"
"Them?"
Ling Feng was surprised, "What are these guys doing colluding with local militias?"
"It’s all about profit!"
Lin Xue said, and continued, "There’s a company called HZ that owns seven large oil fields in the Middle East, and their boss behind the scenes is French!"
Ling Feng instantly understood and asked, "So you’re saying they’re not targeting , just envious of my oil field?"
"That should be the case. You could go investigate the French military base; you might find sothing, but it’s not guaranteed," Lin Xue said.
"Why?" Ling Feng asked.
"Those ard personnel, although they retreated in ti, may not have stayed at the French military base. They might have already returned ho, and in that case, you won’t find them or have direct evidence!" Lin Xue said.
"As long as they haven’t killed everyone to silence them, I’ll have a chance!"
Ling Feng chuckled coldly, then said, "Alright, I have nothing else to do lately, so I’ll focus on this. Otherwise, the oil field won’t get any peace!"
"Okay, take care of yourself." Lin Xue said, then hung up the phone.
Ling Feng looked down at the map on the tablet and squinted, saying, "Playing dirty, hm? This ti, if you don’t suffer a bit, you won’t know who Ling Feng is!"
After saying that, he packed up his gear, got up, and headed straight northwest!
The map indicated that it was over two hundred kiloters to the French base, and Ling Feng couldn’t fly, so he had to rely on his legs.
The distance was a bit far. Even though Ling Feng pushed his speed to the limit, it took him nearly two hours to arrive.
By then, it was already noon.
Standing atop a hill, a city appeared not far in front of Ling Feng.
Calling it a city would be generous; it was more of a large village.
The tallest buildings were only three stories, and ninety percent were single-story houses.
The earth-toned appearance made it look like it’s made of compacted dirt.
Ling Feng was speechless, thinking that as a country rich in oil, it should be economically developed, yet years of war prevented independent growth.
And the reason behind this is well-known; it’s all because of those Western robbers!
On one hand, they secretly support rebels to cause trouble, while on the other, they pretend to maintain peace, bringing capital and technology to exploit resources semi-plunderously.
Ling Feng shook his head, his divine sense already seeing the military base at the edge of the city, four kiloters away.
This place was well-constructed, with tall six-story buildings, a paved square, and a helipad, fully modern military facilities.
Comparing it to the neighboring city was like night and day.
Having confird that this was a French military base, Ling Feng’s divine sense penetrated inside, instantly grasping the layout of the buildings.
Just as Lin Xue said, inside the buildings were all Western faces, not a single local.
Ling Feng frowned and thought, seeing this, he decided to spend so ti with them!
He then sat on the hill, pulled out so items from the Space Bracelet, and gave himself a simple disguise.
By saring so dirt on his clothes, he now looked indistinguishable from a local.
He then stepped down the hill, heading straight into the city.
Though it was simple and backward, the city was bustling, with many people riding bicycles across the streets, occasionally a car or two passing by.
There were so shops on both sides of the road, selling daily necessities and fruits and vegetables.
Not knowing the language, Ling Feng wasn’t in a hurry and strolled around the street first. After learning the language, he walked towards the city center.
Before finding a place to stay, he first needed to get so local cash.
So Ling Feng went directly to a bank in the city center.
Taking out a small gold bar he had prepared, he said to the bank clerk, "I’d like to exchange this for cash."
