He had contacted Sang Ping in advance. To ensure Sang Luoluo's safety, Sang Ping was personally leading the team, which consisted entirely of elites. He said, "I've already made arrangements; they'll be here in two minutes."
Qi Feng's watch beeped twice, and Sang Luoluo quickly went out.
A flying vehicle was hovering outside the villa.
At that moment, the hatch was opened, and wind and snow rushed in.
Sang Luoluo used her Mental Power to pull Qi Feng and He Fei up with her. Only after the cabin door closed did it gradually warm up.
Li Jiu looked up at the aircraft in the sky from the courtyard. "When will Boss Sang take us out on a mission?"
Qi Xue said from the side, "We'll call you if you need us. Hurry up and catch up on some sleep; we'll have to relieve Lei Qi and Xiao Li later."
"Um."
The aircraft arrived at the base entrance, and four other aircraft took off together.
The sky was foggy, the snowflakes were getting bigger, and flying was the most convenient way to go out.
Five aircraft set off towards the wilderness.
Sang Ping said, "The place we're going to this time is a bit far, and the supplies are scattered. If we encounter any emergencies, we don't know how many days we'll have to stay outside."
The plane was stocked with canned food and nutritional supplements; we were well-prepared for this trip.
Sang Luoluo glanced at the mission route and locations. The supplies needed to be collected were scattered in several places, and the amount in each place was not large. With Sang Luoluo's current space capacity, she could easily collect all the supplies from these places.
The outside is now covered in heavy snow. The once lush green trees and grasses have turned yellow and withered, while some remain green and hidden under the snow and ice. In some places, the snow has frozen over, and no danger can be seen under the cover of ice and snow.
The experience in the wild last year was still vivid in Sang Luoluo's mind, and she was still afraid. Beneath the calm ice and snow, there were countless large and small mutated animals and mutated plants.
The level of danger is now incomparable to last year. Mutant animals and plants are constantly evolving due to the meteorite shower, making the danger level completely different from last year.
Previously at Base 71, the base would send out Guard to collect samples and monitor the changes in plants and animals outside the base. Now, Base No. 32 is also constantly updating samples, but the specific analysis data is not necessarily accurate and can only be estimated.
The specific situation depends on what you might encounter in the wild.
The aircraft's radar sounded an alarm, and a cluster of red dots appeared around it.
Sang Ping remained calm. "They are a group of mutated birds."
After speaking, he looked at Sang Luoluo.
Seeing this, Sang Luoluo said, "I can handle it. Just fly normally and let those mutated birds get close."
Sang Ping nodded and immediately gave the order into the walkie-talkie.
The five aircraft moved slightly closer and maintained stable flight.
The mutated birds were extremely fast. Sang Luoluo closed her eyes, spread her Mental Power, and focused on sensing the approaching mutated birds around her.
Soon, a flock of mutated birds entered the range of Mental Power detection.
Their movements immediately slowed down. Gradually, as they entered the range of her Mental Power control, Sang Luoluo concentrated and pulled them into the space one batch at a time.
Inside the space, a row of Crystal Core were aimed at the mutated bird that had just entered, concentrating their firepower and instantly blowing it in the head.
Hundreds of mutated birds watched their companions dwindle, but as they drew nearer, they sensed something was wrong. By the time they tried to escape, it was too late. Once they entered a certain area, all their companions vanished.
Finally, two mutated birds, being a bit slower, realized their companion was missing and, somewhat bewildered, had no choice but to retreat.
However, Sang Luoluo's failure to capture the last two birds did not mean that Sang Ping would let them go. He immediately ordered them to open fire. At such close range, the Crystal Core on the aircraft killed the two mutated birds as soon as they fired. Unfortunately, the mutated birds' corpses fell to the ground and could not be picked up in time.
With the mission pressing, Sang Ping only expressed his regret briefly before continuing to focus on carrying out the task.
The aircraft maintained a steady speed, and an hour later, they finally arrived at their first destination.
Sang Ping gave the order for two aircraft to scout ahead and patrol the surrounding area to make sure there were no enemy ambushes before letting them land.
Upon arriving here, Sang Luoluo immediately dispersed her Mental Power.
She could already see some of the scene on the ground; the surrounding area was densely vegetated, and she could even see the silhouettes of mutated animals below.
There are still some people from the base here.
The hatch opened, and a bone-chilling cold rushed in. Sang Luoluo shivered and decisively followed the others down.
There are several detectors on the surrounding tree branches, produced by Base No. 32.
Sang Ping led them forward. The trees ahead were so dense that the aircraft couldn't land. They needed to cross this area for several hundred meters.
Sang Luoluo was protected in the middle.
The snow and ice obscured the path, making it easy to slip and fall. After walking for a while, Sang Luoluo realized that it was indeed easy to slip and fall, so she used her Mental Power to lift her feet off the ground and move by hovering on the snow.
Its Mental Power constantly observes its surroundings.
She accidentally discovered Crystal Core within her Mental Power control range. She pulled it directly into the space, but since it was outside her Mental Power control range, she had no choice but to give up.
However, even within the range of Mental Power control, this area is quite large; along the way, I collected quite a few Crystal Core.
Fortunately, they didn't encounter anything unusual along the way, except for two attacks by mutated animals. However, Sang Luoluo reacted quickly and didn't even need Sang Ping and the others to take action. Sang Luoluo used her Mental Power to set up Crystal Core and dealt with the problem directly.
The corpse was also thrown into the space.
Upon arrival, the supplies were found underground in a cave, where the base's personnel rested.
The heating equipment is rather rudimentary, but it has the advantage of having energy and being safe in the cave.
The cave was filled with various materials, all collected from the nearby forest. Some of them were edible, some were mutated medicinal herbs with very low radiation levels, some were Crystal Core, some were fruits of mutated plants, some were ores dug up from the nearby area, some were special types of wood, and so on.
The items are a mixed bag, but they are extremely useful.
The quantity is also considerable.
Sang Luoluo used her Mental Power to pull them all into the space and stack them up.
Just a moment later.
"Alright."
Sang Ping knew Sang Luoluo's efficiency. "Then let's go, to the next place."
They had to return the way they came.
Because the road below is difficult to travel, it takes almost an hour to make the trip.
Sang Luoluo originally suggested that they simply hover above the cave and she could pull Sang Ping down to fly, since loading things would be quick anyway.
Sang Ping shook his head and said that this was an order from the base, and they didn't want so many people to know about Sang Luoluo's abilities. Secondly, hovering the aircraft in that place would make too much noise and easily attract large mutated animals, as well as some mutated birds.
As if on cue, as soon as they returned to the aircraft, mutated birds spotted them. Six mutated birds swooped down from the sky, each one enormous.
Sang Ping didn't make a move. When the mutated birds that were swooping down got close, they all disappeared at once. Sang Luoluo pulled them all into her spatial dimension and dealt with them.
He didn't forget to toss the corpses of several mutated birds, whose Crystal Core had been dug out, to the mutated black bear. That guy needed to eat some mutated animals every day; he had a huge appetite.
Of course, hearing its dissatisfied roar, Sang Luoluo poured another large basin of Spirit Spring Water into its belly.
The mutated black bear then became happy.
After a long period of feeding, Sang Luoluo can now stand in front of the mutated black bear without it showing any interest in her. Even when she tries to stand on its head or shoulder, it doesn't resist and seems indifferent.
Sometimes Sang Luoluo says a few simple things, and it can even understand them.
Make it sit down, and it will attack mutated animals too, provided that after it does so, it eagerly asks for the Spirit Spring Water.
Sang Luoluo was also thinking that once she got to know the mutated black bear better, she could bring it out to be a henchman.
The aircraft headed to the second location, but halfway there, its radar issued an alarm.
Their aircraft were being monitored.
Chapter 304 Attacked Again He thought to himself, food is still the most effective bait...
"No way, this is so unlucky!" Sang Luoluo blurted out instinctively.
Sang Ping hardened with alertness. Holding the walkie-talkie, he said, "Prepare for battle!"
The enemy aircraft had clearly been targeting them for some time, and opened fire on them as soon as they got close.
The enemy has eight aircraft, and they are well-armed. Chasing after their aircraft at this point is clearly an ambush that was planned in advance.
Sang Luoluo took out the heavy armor and had Qi Feng and He Fei put it on, then quickly put it on herself as well.
Having an extra layer of protection on the outside makes me feel a little more at ease.
Now faced with this unexpected situation, Sang Luoluo could only spread her Mental Power to assist Sang Ping and the others in the battle as much as possible.
Unfortunately, his Mental Power was limited, and the distance to the enemy aircraft was too great to lock onto the target.
Sang Ping had already ordered his men to open fire, and the two sides clashed.
In the air, they had fewer aircraft and were at a disadvantage due to being ambushed.
Sang Ping immediately made a decision. "Land! Land immediately in the nearby dense forest; the enemy doesn't have the advantage in ground combat either."
The pilots immediately did as instructed, but unfortunately, the enemy's firepower was too intense, and two of their aircraft were still hit.
Sang Luoluo only had time to pull the base personnel inside the aircraft within her Mental Power control range into her spatial dimension. That is, she could operate the aircraft because it was close enough. The other aircraft was too far away, and she could only watch helplessly as it was destroyed.
