Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo' Chapter 1293 611: Prosperity for Those Who Follow Me_2
Previously on Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo'...
The mission for Light Bulb and Ming Xing was to deliver the tracking device to Preserved Fruit, who would then direct its use. Unexpectedly, during the transport, Ming Xing went to buy drinks, and Light Bulb opened the car window to smoke. When he leaned out, he saw two young ladies standing at the entrance of a hair salon.
Light Bulb meticulously described the incident to Li Banfeng: "Those two ladies, they both had gourd-shaped figures, their appearances were particularly charming. They waved at me, and as they waved, they said, 'Dong Xiaoning, come and join us.'
How could I go to such a place, when I had a mission underway? I originally didn't want to bother with it, but to my surprise, those two ladies suddenly vanished!
I realized something was wrong, it was very similar to the signs that appeared in Gourd Village. I immediately activated the tracking device. The new equipment only took sixteen seconds to start up, and as soon as it started, it showed a successful lock. "
Ming Xing added from the side: "I returned in less than a minute."
Light Bulb waved his hand and said, "Missed is missed, no point in squeezing in. Director Li, Gourd Village is now under our lock; as long as we open the tracking device's entrance, we can directly enter Gourd Village."
Li Banfeng had not yet seen what the tracking device looked like when Guan Zhengyang stepped forward with his team to take over the device.
"Director Guan, what do you mean by this?"
"Director Li, I've already reported to the higher-ups. This mission has been handed over to the Special Action Team, and the Dark Star Bureau should no longer be involved.
I've heard the work report from these two young men; although it was like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse, it still counts as credit to your bureau, and you won't be short of commendation."
"Director Guan, I didn't hear that clearly!" Li Banfeng tapped the Projector.
"This task, I've taken over! Did you understand?" Guan Zhengyang repeated, and Li Banfeng ordered a full retreat of the Dark Star Bureau.
With a command from Guan Zhengyang, over a hundred Special Action Team members boarded the RV.
How big must the RV be to fit over a hundred people?
In fact, each person who boarded the RV did not stay inside. They directly entered the hidden form space through the vector channel.
Light Bulb, worried about Li Banfeng getting angry, lowered his voice, "Director Li, let's not bother with him, staying out of a battle can sometimes be a blessing."
Li Banfeng wasn't angry; he was contemplating one thing, was what Light Bulb saw really Gourd Village?
The people from Gourd Village who come out to welcome guests generally don't know the visitors' names; the reason they know the name Li Qi is due to Cone revealing it to them.
"Dong Xiaoning, come on in and play!" Such words do not align with Gourd Village's norms.
While pondering, the over a hundred Special Action Team members all entered the hidden form space.
Li Banfeng asked Dumpling, "Who called Guan Zhengyang over?"
"Who else could it be?" Dumpling glanced at Deputy Director Wang, gritting his teeth, "It's that shameless flatterer!"
Guan Zhengyang, wearing headphones and observing the surveillance footage, assumed the posture of a chief commander. Currently, the action team members only communicated with him and only followed his orders.
Fifteen minutes later, the Special Action Team's communication was cut off.
Guan Zhengyang's expression was slightly awkward, but he could still provide a reasonable explanation.
If Gourd Village was a hidden dimension space, entering it would certainly result in radio communications being blocked.
Yet Li Banfeng was considering another matter: is Gourd Village really a dark dimension space?
Even if it is a dark dimension space, the Special Action Team's strategy had issues; they should have left some members behind to maintain communication near the vector channel's exit.
About fifteen minutes passed before the conversation resumed, though the video signal did not return.
Guan Zhengyang personally received the messages, looking from anticipation to gravely tense, indicating that the outcome of this operation was not promising.
If they encountered Gourd Village, it might still be favorable; Li Banfeng speculated that they might have stumbled upon something else.
"Support, quick, support!" Guan Zhengyang shouted at Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng had already withdrawn with the Security Team Members, and now, without Guan Zhengyang explaining the situation, they suddenly called for support; he definitely couldn't lead his team charging in.
Deputy Director Wang was anxious: "Director Li, did you hear Director Guan's call for support? Security Team Members, by my order, now immediately..."
Li Banfeng picked up Deputy Director Wang and brought him to Guan Zhengyang's side, asking, "What's the situation?"
Before Guan Zhengyang could speak, several action team members rushed out of the RV, including the action team leader, who told Guan Zhengyang, "Director, please immediately shut down the vector channel's entrance."
"Shut it down immediately..." Guan Zhengyang hesitated for a moment, "Is it just you few left?"
Whoosh!
A gray-white spherical object over fifty centimeters in diameter emerged from the RV, directly hitting Guan Zhengyang.
Guan Zhengyang was knocked to the ground; the spherical object opened its giant mouth and swallowed Guan Zhengyang's head.
The action team leader took over Guan Zhengyang's command, ordering the immediate closure of the vector channel.
Other team members moved forward to grapple with the spherical object, trying to make it release Guan Zhengyang.
They dared not use weapons or the dark energy carrier, nor did they dare to use dark abilities recklessly, as everyone feared injuring Guan Zhengyang.
Deputy Director Wang was anxious: "Director Li, think of something..."
Li Banfeng picked up Deputy Director Wang, preparing to deliver him to Guan Zhengyang's side; Deputy Director Wang was shaking all over and didn't dare utter another word.
Under the barrage of attacks from the action team members, the spherical object spat out Guan Zhengyang and began counterattacking the action team members.
Its counterattack was very monotonous, just opening its mouth to bite. Perhaps due to not being well-adapted to the environment, the motion of the spherical object was very sluggish.
