Chapter 191 Emergency (Third update) After Qu Jianlei and Xiao Moshan checked out, they found a shared taxi and came to Tianxin Lake in the suburbs.
Tianxin Lake is a naturally formed lake, which is a good place for vacation and relaxation.
Of course it was impossible for two grown men to go on a trip. They went there... to fish! Tianxin Lake has a special fishing place, complete with fishing gear, bait, etc. If you are willing to spend money, there is also a beautiful escort service.
The two of them came back from Central City and relaxed for a few days before going fishing... This is normal behavior.
Even if you are in business and are working hard to negotiate a big deal, your boss must agree to take a few days off, right? The two of them went to Central City, which was remote and backward, had high risks, and the mission took a long time.
In this case, it is possible to rest for half a year before returning. How many days of fishing is a big deal?
Qu Jianlei didn't ask for beautiful women to accompany him - he didn't even like this in Blue Star.
Xiao Moshan, however, ordered two beauties very boldly and even had sex together in the evening.
In his words - "They can prove that I have injuries on my legs. I have sacrificed too much to keep us from being noticed!"
Qu Jianlei didn't bother to pay attention to him and just told him, "We are sitting on nothing now, please consider the cost."
Xiao Moshan shook his head, "How can a warrior who has been holding back for a long time release all his energy in one night? It's too fake."
He looked determined, "For our safety, I will continue to sacrifice myself!"
He really didn't lie. This sacrifice lasted for six consecutive days.
The fishing friends in the same area were a little strange and couldn't help but secretly asked Qu Jianlei, "How many years has it been since that guy touched a woman?"
Qu Jianlei didn't want to answer, but finally said, "He is still young, but he is a bit old."
"You are young, no wonder." The man nodded in realization, and then smiled, "You are not ordinary old."
A mere ordinary person who speaks in this way might get shot in the head on the spot if Residential Area.
But in Canyon, it is normal. Under the overwhelming sense of security, this is the daily life of ordinary people.
It wasn't until the seventh day that Xiao Moshan gave the two beauties a break, saying that he planned to rest for one night and continue tomorrow night.
This guy did things in a systematic way. That night, he and Qu Jianlei went out to investigate and didn't come back until late at night.
The next day, the two continued fishing as usual, but they whispered to each other from time to time.
The two of them were discussing how to attack the vault where the crystals were stored.
But what Qu Jianlei values more is "Attribute Cultivation Research Institute" not far from the vault.
It is said that there are many unique books on cultivation in it, which is too tempting for him.
Furthermore, it is said that there are books other than cultivation that are also hidden in the research institute.
This is mainly because the institute's security strength is very strong, and it is more secure to store precious information here.
Xiao Moshan doesn't agree with his plan. In his opinion, the research institute is definitely more difficult to deal with than the vault.
This vault belongs to the Energy Block Alliance, and is somewhat similar to the place where Qu Jianlei opened the treasure chest.
Energy Block Alliance is composed of several major forces, with many masters. It is said that Canyon's military is all a part of the Alliance.
But the vault targeted by Xiao Moshan is just a backup vault for the Energy Block Alliance.
The inventory of the backup warehouse is much smaller than that of the large warehouse. The purpose of its existence is that once something goes wrong in the large warehouse, there will not be nothing available when you are in a hurry.
There is more than one backup warehouse, which is very scattered and very secretive.
So where the vault is located, there is only an inconspicuous grocery store.
The grocery store is quite confusing and sells all kinds of things, but there is one advantage: Energy Block can be sold at a reasonable price.
Canyon and Energy Block are exclusive, and general stores are not qualified to sell Energy Block.
Even if a merchant buys some Energy Block at a fair price and then sells it at a fair price, even this operation is illegal.
Even if the merchant just wants to gain popularity and does not make any money at all, once someone reports it, Energy Block Alliance will teach him how to behave in minutes.
It's not a question of whether you can make money or not, but you are not qualified to sell this thing, even if you lose money! This grocery store dares to sell it openly, and the way they make money is by bundling other products and making a certain profit.
This way of making money is a bit weird, all I have to do is make it clear that I don't lack Energy Block.
But don't mention it. With this kind of business method, the grocery store really makes money. It can't be said that the profits are huge, and it is no problem to support the family.
Because the store has Energy Block in reserve, it also hired Modified Warrior to guard it.
Some people were jealous and reported it, but it was useless. Energy Block Alliance had no reaction at all.
Later everyone knew that this grocery store was related.
It is estimated that the owner of the store has no other business capabilities and relies on this relationship to make a small amount of money.
But Xiao Moshan is certain that the grocery store is just a cover, and the spare warehouse under the store is the real focus.
The store guard Modified Warrior is also a cover.
There are two Rank C Warrior taking turns on duty at night, and there are two Rank B in a residential building not far away, who can provide support at any time.
Rank A Warrior is really not available, even in Canyon, Rank A is not everywhere.
But in Attribute Cultivation Research Institute, which is about five hundred meters away, there is Rank A Warrior.
This research institute is affiliated with Canyon Executive Group, and the relationship between the ruling group and Energy Block Alliance is too close.
Therefore, if something happens to the grocery store, someone from the research institute will definitely come to help, including but not limited to Rank A Warrior.
Xiao Moshan and Qu Jianlei are not afraid to challenge Rank A Warrior, but this is the downtown area of Canyon.
As long as they dare to take action, double-digit Rank A Warrior can be attracted from all directions in minutes.
Moreover, Canyon has strong scientific and technological power. If the relevant equipment is in place, Rank A Warrior can defeat them both.
Qu Jianlei is not disgusted with Xiao Moshan's caution, but he still said: Let's see what happens when the time comes.
Then the two began to make the final preparations before taking action - to build the hiding place Secret Chamber.
Xiao Moshan, like Qu Jianlei and Bentley, has a good way of evading wanted persons. He is not afraid of going the extra mile, but also ensures safety.
Over the next four days, the two men quietly dug four underground hiding rooms.
They are all Rank B Warrior, Qu Jianlei also mastered spells with different attributes, and with Space Ring, digging the hiding room is easy.
His Space Ring was filled to the brim with guns and ammunition, vehicles, daily necessities, Energy Block... the most important thing was drinking water.
If you want to use Space Ring to move soil, you have to take out these things.
Fortunately, after the first hiding room was built, this was not a big problem, and they even had the leisure Baitian to continue wandering around.
On the fifth night, the two went to a large bar to drink. They asked for a private room and hired several waiters to accompany them.
Their plan was to get the receptionist drunk and then explore the grocery store to determine a course of action.
By mental arithmetic or not, it was not yet midnight and the few waiters were almost done drinking.
Qu Jianlei and Xiao Moshan are also very similar in pretending to be drunk.
Xiao Moshan was bragging nonsense, his tongue was so big, Qu Jianlei was silent and drank one cup after another, which was also his true performance.
Seeing that the opportunity was Buduo away, the door was knocked open, and two male waiters hurried in, "Oh no, big inspection!"
Qu Jianlei was pretending to be drunk, but when he heard this, he was stunned: Big inspection? Fortunately, he was used to drooping his eyelids, so others couldn't see his surprise.
This kind of bar is a serious industry in Canyon. Even the casino is serious if it has a license.
Xiao Moshan was also startled, but his endurance was obviously higher than that of Qu Jianlei.
He asked loudly, "The inspection... is there any warning? What level is it?"
A male waiter replied with a smile on his face, "There must be a warning, otherwise we wouldn't be able to find out."
Although he was smiling apologetically, his tone was still urgent, and it was obvious that the situation was really serious.
"How disappointing," Xiao Moshan muttered, and then asked, "At least it's Level 2, right?"
"You are an expert," the male waiter smiled bitterly and extended a thumbs up, "At least level two."
"Oops... Level 2," Xiao Moshan shook his head and touched an usher on the face, "Send us away!"
This bar is indeed unambiguous. When the whole city is inspected, it will take the initiative to notify guests and even send them away!
Qu Jianlei couldn't quite figure out the logic inside, but Xiao Moshan thought it was fine, so he could only suppress his curiosity for the time being.
As expected, the bar here also has a secret passage.
Under the arrangements of more than a dozen guards and waiters, groups of guests walked out quickly, and no one dared to make any noise.
After leaving the bar, all the guests dispersed, and some even trotted away.
Xiao Moshan whispered, "Quick, sit in the wheelchair and leave as soon as possible."
Two grown men squeezed into a wheelchair...Qu Jianlei curled his lips, but had no objection.
The two of them are not too fat, especially Qu Jianlei, who is thinner. Sitting in a wheelchair together is not too crowded.
Xiao Moshan directly turned on the automatic driving mode of the wheelchair and adjusted it to the highest speed.
The maximum speed of a wheelchair is about 30 kilometers. Although it is not comparable to a car, it is really not slow.
As soon as they were less than 500 meters away, seven or eight cars came to the door of the bar, and people in uniforms jumped out one by one.
Qu Jianlei looked back and was a little stunned, "In this battle... we can't use attribute power?"
If I could really use the Wind Attribute method to leave, it would definitely be much faster than a wheelchair—faster than an ordinary car, and also more concealed!
But after using attribute power, the remaining aura is likely to be noticed.
Suddenly two Wind Attribute warriors from Rank B appeared. Even the most stupid person would think of the two wanted criminals from Central City! "It definitely can't be used," Xiao Moshan rolled his eyes, "You're not a beautiful woman. Do you think I like having sex with you?"
But this was a critical moment, and he couldn't bear to say too many wisecracks.
"Use your Mental Strength power to sense. Are there any relatively safe places nearby?"
Chapter 192 Car Crash (Fourth Update) Aren't you unable to use attribute power? Qu Jianlei was a little surprised when he heard this.
However, he believed that Xiao Moshan would not harm him. If he was caught, he should not be treated as a guinea pig. Xiao Moshan probably would not be able to escape with his life.
He quickly chose a place, which was a water plant.
The water consumption of Canyon is not small, and the industrial water consumption is even greater. It is necessary to divert surface water from outside and then exploit part of the groundwater.
In order to prevent pollution, the two water sources are far away from the city, so this water plant is actually a secondary treatment and pressurization plant.
Even for secondary treatment plants, everyone pays great attention to the problem of pollution, so the area is quite large, ranging from Buduo to 30,000 to 40,000 square meters.
The environment of the water plant is also well protected, with only flowers, plants and trees.
This place has always prohibited people from entering and exiting at will. Let alone poisoning or other things, public urination and defecation in the water plant are also prohibited.
There are many cameras around, but some of them are broken, which is what Xiao Moshan said - peace will last for a long time.
Qu Jianlei Visiting Canyon these days is not without gain. He has analyzed several possible hiding places.
Now since Xiao Moshan said so, he directly pointed out the location.
"Let's go then," Xiao Moshan said quickly, "I'll go to the water plant first, and you can lure them away and come back."
This is not for Qu Jianlei to take risks, but a plan made in advance to solve the crisis.
He has elements of various attributes that can be called upon, many fighting methods, and he can deflect the opponent's thinking at critical moments.
Just like just now, neither of them dared to use Wind Attribute's elements to escape, nor did they dare to use this power to detect danger.
But Xiao Moshan suggested that he use Mental Attribute to investigate.
The aura of Mental Attribute is relatively difficult to detect, for one thing.
On the other hand, even if Canyon is recognized, he will still wonder: Who could this be?
So Qu Jianlei didn't refuse. When the guy quietly got out of the wheelchair, he ran wildly in the wheelchair.
As soon as he ran, he ran straight out of the city until he saw someone setting up a card check in front of him.
There happened to be a public beta tester nearby. He entered the public toilet in a wheelchair, and then... nothing happened.
Later, Canyon investigated and found that this person entered the blind spot of the monitor and must have gone to a public toilet.
But in the next few days, I never saw that person coming out again, including the not-so-small wheelchair.
Qu Jianlei quietly returned to the water plant and found Xiao Moshan hidden inside.
Xiao Moshan actually hid it very well. The aura of his body blended with the aura around him.
But Qu Jianlei uses the perception of Mental Attribute, and can easily perceive a trace of disharmony in nature.
Then he came to a bush and patted a patch of dirt on the ground.
Xiao Moshan's face looked up, a little stunned in his eyes, "No, you can find this?"
"Move the turf," Qu Jianlei whispered, "Dig a hole to hide. I don't know how long I will stay this time."
"If it's Level 2, you can stay for up to three days," Xiao Moshan carefully moved the turf away, "It's a pity it's not Level 2..."
It's dark now and the visibility is not good, but you can still hear the solemnity in his tone, "At least it's level one alert."
"Let's do it first," Qu Jianlei started digging the hole quickly with him.
The two of them have been digging holes too frequently recently, Item-Storing Ring is mostly empty, and the construction speed is very fast.
In about ten minutes, an underground hiding room was dug.
The two of them got in first, disguised the surface, and then began to toss the inner wall.
Finally, I had to add the insulation layer and ventilation holes. After all this work, it took Buduo an hour.
"Just wait," Xiao Moshan sighed depressingly, "By the way, remember to use Mental Attribute to observe the outside."
"I don't!" Qu Jianlei objected simply, "You use Wind Attribute to observe first, and we'll change shifts."
If he is responsible for guarding alone, will he die from exhaustion? "That's true," Xiao Moshan reacted, "Leave it to me for the rest of the night and morning."
Then he sighed again, "I don't know why, level one alert... the time is not certain."
Qu Jianlei asked in a low voice, "How can you conclude that it is the first level of alert?"
Xiao Moshan replied nonchalantly, "How much does the waiter at the bar know? I'll know it once I feel it!"
The hiding room was only illuminated by a cold light rod, making it very dark.
After a while, Qu Jianlei asked again, "Is the level one alert the highest? Or is there a special level?"
"Special grade... of course," Xiao Moshan thought for a moment, then sighed.
"That means the entire Canyon will be mobilized... even Central City."
Qu Jianlei asked curiously, "Central City is going to be mobilized. What kind of crisis must it have encountered?"
Xiao Moshan remained silent for a long time. He sighed softly but did not answer.
Qu Jianlei felt it was a bit boring, so he simply sat there cross-legged and meditated.
The next day Baitian, someone came into the water plant to check.
They didn't want to disturb the environment here, so they initially used instrument scanning, which should be advanced thermal imaging equipment.
But this is obviously useless. Qu Jianlei They have already done the insulation and Ice Attribute cooling.
Immediately afterwards, a Wind Attribute warrior from Rank B released his perception.
Nothing gained, so he condensed another "Wind Hammer", knocking twice here and twice there.
Later, there was another wood warrior named Rank B, who released some vines to reach underground.
"Don't insert it too deep," a staff member from the water plant nearby quickly reminded, "I inserted it too deep once and it squirted all over."
The wood warrior glanced at him and retracted the vine angrily.
Although many methods were used, it was basically routine and no hiding place of the two was found.
In the first half of the night, Qu Jianlei was on duty. This was a very labor-intensive job, but vigilance was necessary.
After midnight, when he was bored, he suddenly noticed that a Black Shadow climbed over the wall and sneaked nearby.
The lighting in the water plant is not very good, so I can't see clearly.
The man looked around, then raised his hand and released several vines, reaching underground.
"I'll go, wood warrior," Qu Jianlei quickly woke up Xiao Moshan, "A guest has arrived."
Xiao Moshan controlled Wind Attribute and felt it slightly, "Damn, Baitian didn't check it well, why are you here at night?"
"Shh," Qu Jianlei raised a finger, "The other party can feel the slight vibration in the ground."
That person didn't know if he had taken the wrong medicine, but he kept testing the area around Qu Jianlei's hiding room.
After seven or eight minutes, he put away the vines, took off the long knife on his back, and started digging a hole.
"What the hell..." Qu Jianlei didn't let Xiao Moshan speak, but he couldn't help but muttered.
Xiao Moshan was also dumbfounded, "This, this, this... can't be such a coincidence, right?"
"It may not be the one who was searched," Qu Jianlei was quite stable, "Maybe he is also a criminal with a criminal record."
Xiao Moshan was speechless, and finally sighed, "I thought of it together... What a coincidence."
The wood warrior dug a few times and released a few vines, obviously trying to loosen the soil.
Although he is only a single-attribute warrior, he is not slow in digging holes. The vines loosen the soil, then roll up the soil and scatter it into the distance.
In about half an hour, he dug a hole deep enough, and then made a secret, "Grow."
After a period of elemental fluctuations, the vegetation covered by new soil became ridged.
Those branches and leaves swayed a little more, and the new soil fell to the ground.
"This is a good operation," Qu Jianlei couldn't help but praise, "I didn't expect the wood type to have such a strong camouflage ability."
"The distance is too close," Xiao Moshan muttered, his voice becoming colder, "The fugitive... kill him!"
He is not a person who kills indiscriminately, but when it comes to his own safety - the other party is guilty anyway, so there is no need to be merciful.
Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment and said leisurely, "Fugitives may not all die... for example, we two."
Xiao Moshan hesitated and said, "Then let's capture him first... If he is a fugitive for many years, maybe I can recognize him."
This man worked hard to dig a big hole and made a piece of turf on the spot. As a wood type warrior, this operation was very easy.
He threw a cold light rod into the pit, then jumped down gently, and then controlled the small vines to move the turf to his head.
Then he sprouted some roots and firmly supported them under the turf.
It wasn't until he was sure that even if a few people stepped on it, the grass wouldn't collapse, that he let out a sigh of relief and said, "It's finally stable."
"Hi, neighbor," a voice suddenly rang in his ear, making his hair stand on end with fright.
The man subconsciously wanted to react, but it was too late. A burst of electricity came and his body suddenly froze.
Then came Wind Binding Art, trapping him again.
If there wasn't that current, Wind Binding Art really wouldn't be able to stop him, but now... it's too late to say anything.
The next moment, a short knife was placed on his neck, and another Big Hand covered his mouth.
A voice spoke coldly, "I guess you won't be out of your mind and make any noise, right?"
The man was startled for a moment, then nodded his head, but he didn't even dare to hum.
The figure flashed, and there was another person in front of him. Laser Pistol pressed his forehead, "Whispering, do you understand?"
This man nodded slightly again, raised his finger and pointed at the other party, and then pointed at the short knife on his neck.
I know there are at least two of you, but why can't you think about it? Qu Jianlei sensed his reaction and released his hand covering the other person's mouth, "Brother... we were harmed by you."
"It's not a brother," Xiao Moshan whispered from the front, "It's a woman!"
Hearing this, the man raised his finger and pointed at his mouth, meaning: Can I speak?
"Tell me," Xiao Moshan Diandian said, "You know the consequences of telling lies..."
This person thought about it, and then sighed, "Friend... I was also implicated."
"Lies!" The knife in Qu Jianlei's hand exerted a slight force and had already cut the opponent's skin, and the smell of blood filled the air.
"Tsk, it's bleeding," Xiao Moshan smacked his lips regretfully, "Why don't we just kill him?"
