Chapter 305 Wasteland Edition: Lurking and Searching

Pei Shao already had three people under his command, and when he first collected information, Su Mo added three more. Google search reading

A total of seven people.

For a village with only 150 people, it is already a lot to be able to devote seven people to intelligence work.

If you add Zhong Qingshu, a marginal person, it will be eight people.

Even if there is no experience, relying on carpet-style observation, a foreign team with a possible number of 20,000 people will have no trace at all?

But the fact is that after Su Mo asked the question, not only did Pei Shao not speak, but Zhong Qingshu, who is an expert in intelligence collection, also looked thoughtful.

"Twenty thousand aliens, that's not two hundred, two thousand!"

"Twenty thousand, the daily consumption of supplies is in the hundreds of units, you can't find such a team!"

Seeing Su Mo a little angry, Pei Shao finally couldn't stand the pressure, and said with an extremely ugly face:

"Director, it's really not that our people don't look for it well, nor are they infiltrated by aliens. These days, we have been running all over the area within a radius of 200 kilometers in the Dihu"

"I even secretly withdrew supplies and bought a recorder and put it in the car, but I didn't find any problems with our people"

"Within these two hundred kilometers, there is really no sign of aliens, let alone human figures, even the food residues left after their march, I couldn't find a single one"

After speaking, Pei Shao directly took out a huge map from the storage space and spread it on the table in the conference room.

On this map, all the terrain within a 200-kilometer range with the underground shelter as the center is completely drawn.

From the undulations of the terrain to the iconic identification objects, the four places of southeast, northwest, and northeast are all clearly marked.

Even if an outsider comes here and looks at this map, he can know how much effort has been put into it.

Moreover, there are dozens of exploration lines marked with arrows on this map.

These lines are the routes that the intelligence team has traveled in these days, basically covering all places within 200 kilometers.

"Director, I have personally driven to see all the places marked on this map, and I have definitely not seen a single bird hair!"

As if he was afraid that Su Mo would not believe it, Pei Shao continued to speak aggrievedly, starting from 30 kilometers, explaining the terrain conditions here and what he saw and heard one by one.

Since eight days ago, after receiving the task of investigation requested by Su Mo, all the work in the intelligence organization has been put down.

There is an alien tribe near the village!

The number may be around 20,000!

This is Su Mo's original words. After hearing it at the time, if Pei Shao was not an old soldier, he would probably be scared to pee his pants on the spot.

Good guy, so many alien tribes have surrounded us, what's the point of investigating other intelligence?

If you don't know where the enemy is in one day, you may find them standing at your doorstep the next day.

For this reason, after Su Mote approved the right to use the Earth Tiger, the intelligence team drove and began to survey within 100 kilometers with Hope Village as the center.

For three whole days, they took turns driving.

Except for the necessary meal time, everyone would stop the car to eat dry food, and the rest of the time was either on the road or carefully looking for traces on the ground.

Pei Shao is an old intelligence soldier who has received professional training, so he knows the importance of time in this situation.

Therefore, the seven-member intelligence team stayed up all night and wandered around the wasteland for four days and nights, measuring the 100 kilometers with wheels and footsteps.

But the result was

Nothing was found!

Not to mention the traces of 20,000 aliens, not even a single alien spy was seen.

However, after this 100 kilometers, what allowed the intelligence team to continue to explore was not Su Mo's firm tone, but the "abnormal" in the normal.

Although no traces of aliens were found within the 100 kilometers, both ordinary animals and mutant creatures disappeared.

Since Su Mo notified the alien army, except for the depression, other places were as dead as death, and the silence was terrifying.

On the fifth day, after spending half a day reporting all the explorations, the intelligence team slept for half a day, and took advantage of the night to set off again.

This time, not only the seven-member team, but also Zhong Qingshu joined in, and a group of eight people began to explore from 100 kilometers to 200 kilometers.

With experience, the exploration speed was much faster this time.

In just three days and three nights, not only all places within 200 kilometers were explored, but also dozens or hundreds of kilometers were explored in several major directions where there might be ambushes.

The exploration team came back in the early morning yesterday, but the result was still disappointing as always.

"Have you explored these directions?"

Pointing to the plain vein trend on the map, after getting Pei Shao's firm nod, Su Mo sat at the table with a frown.

The alien race's collective attack was discovered when the panel of the female lion Connie was first bound.

At first, Su Mo didn't pay much attention to this news.

After all, the firepower of the underground shelter has reached a high level, and a basic battle line has been built.

Relying on this battle line, let alone one or two alien teams, even if there are three or five thousand, Su Mo is not afraid.

But the problem lies here

Eight days ago in the morning, when Su Mo connected to Connie's panel again as usual, he suddenly saw something strange on the world channel.

In the past, when the aliens chatted, even in the most quiet time, they would mention Su Mo from time to time, showing a sense of fear.

But today, surprisingly, several races that were once afraid of Su Mo actually "jumped" up and spoke loudly on the world channel.

This small change may be ignored in the eyes of others, but in Su Mo's keen sense of smell, he suddenly smelled a hint of bad smell.

Then, after observing for nearly an hour and summarizing all the sentences with Su Mo,

a big problem came!

The aliens were really not afraid. During the time when Su Mo did not check, they got some news.

It was these news that gave them courage.

Immediately, Su Mo, who felt a huge threat, took a risk and did something.

Contact Clark!

It is naturally difficult for an ordinary alien to add a friend of the royal family, but after having the identity of a depression alien, it is unusually easy and simple.

Taking advantage of his identity, after adding friends and revealing some insignificant information about the depression, Su Mo, who was transformed into Connie the Lioness, finally established basic contact with Clark.

After a brief conversation, Su Mo not only knew why other aliens no longer had any reason to fear him, but also got an important piece of news that even other aliens didn't know!

20,000!

There were a total of 20,000 aliens who wanted to attack the depression, and there were three races with a strength score of more than 1.

Compared with the 003 of the Lioness, this number was already amazing enough.

At this point, even if Su Mo was stubborn, he didn't dare to sit still and wait for the alien army to attack.

After promising Clark that he would quickly withdraw from the depression within 200 kilometers, Su Mo notified the news.

So, the intelligence team set off!

Two explorations, 200 kilometers, according to the route led by Pei Shao, almost all of the 200 kilometers were run. If there was no trace of aliens,

Clark was lying?

In the conference room that can accommodate more than 20 people, as Su Mo pondered and Pei Shao explained, all the scenes within 200 kilometers gradually formed a three-dimensional picture in the minds of the three people.

Su Mo had seen the terrain outside the depression in the ruins of time.

Walking out of the depression, the terrain is in a north-south direction, with high in the south and low in the north. In such a terrain, there are only two places to hide a team of 20,000 people.

The first place is that during several geological activities, a large rift valley of nearly 200 kilometers gradually stretched out 120 kilometers north of the depression.

At the end of the rift valley near the depression, the water depth is 26 meters. Once entering the rift valley, the water depth will reach 52 meters.

In addition, there are many earth and stone mountains about 10 to 20 meters around this rift valley. In the future, if Su Mo wants to go to the direction of the tundra shelter, he will most likely have to take this road to ensure that the bottom of the boat will not come into close contact with the nearby earth and stone mountains.

If the aliens can see the direction where Su Mo left, then this place is the easiest to set up an ambush and the easiest to hide.

The second place, 135 kilometers to the south, is a large natural underground cave with many strange rocks and twists and turns.

If the aliens did not know that Su Mo was going to find his sister, but went to the New World, the cave here could fully accommodate 20,000 aliens, which is an excellent place for hiding and ambush.

But unfortunately, under Su Mo's emphasis, even if Pei Shao and his group crossed the entire Great Rift Valley and explored half of the cave on foot, they did not see any traces of aliens, let alone the aliens.

Now, after the two major points that can be explored are gone, the remaining places will be difficult to find.

After a 40-minute explanation, when Pei Shao finally finished talking about the last place, the conference room that could accommodate 20 to 30 people fell silent.

Su Mo was thinking, Zhong Qingshu was also thinking, and only Pei Shao was left with a bitter face, looking out the window from time to time, wondering what he was thinking.

For an old scout, there are only three possibilities for not finding the enemy's traces.

First, there is no enemy at all, and the intelligence we received is false.

Second, the enemy's lurking means are extremely advanced, and the specific location of the enemy cannot be detected by the current means alone.

Third, the enemy has not yet arrived and is still on the way. The radius of exploration is not enough, so naturally it is impossible to find the enemy.

"Now, we should no longer worry about whether this alien race really exists or someone else is cheating us."

"There is indeed an abnormality near the depression!"

After a long silence, Zhong Qingshu, who had been thinking, finally spoke, and denied the first possibility as soon as he spoke.

There is no trace of any biological activity within 200 kilometers of the depression, which is an abnormality.

Even if there is no enemy, this is enough to make people suspicious, and it is necessary to find out why.

"As for whether this large number of aliens are on their way or have already finished lurking"

"I am more inclined to the latter!"

"But in terms of numbers, maybe our early judgment was wrong!"

"Oh?"

Seeing that Zhong Qingshu was about to start making a well-reasoned inference, Su Mo immediately sat up straight and paid close attention.

There are still three more chapters to go, and I will make up for it as soon as possible!
