Chapter 1104: The Outsider (19)

Finally a main member came, Cronnie thought, although he himself was the vice-captain of a squad, but compared to the native strength around the knight's squire, it was much worse. I know some information about the knight squire who led the headquarters team, it is MacDonald of the Astus family, and Patrick is the person he brought with him when he first participated in the knight squire assessment mission, and it is said that he contributed a lot of strength when hunting fierce creatures. The exact circumstances of Cronie were unknown, he knew that there was a detailed information about the assessment of the knight's squire, but with his own means and skills, he did not have the ability to obtain it.

At this time, I felt that things would be much easier to handle later, and the reinforcements of the king's forces would also arrive in a few days, and the same would be true for my own side. But Croney never thought that the surgeons of such a small country would be a threat, and he was still worried about the two imperial surgeons who now had no details.

This information was also shared by the Knight Commander with Lieutenant Colonel Cromwell, and more than half an hour later, Chromey received a communication from Lieutenant Colonel, hoping to learn some information about Patrick from him in advance.

Finally asked about the group of mercenaries and bounty hunters, Croney told him that everything was under control, just waiting for the bigger prey to slowly approach the net.

At the same time, in a large cavity in the network of mines. This is one of the most completely renovated places, with no rock structures around, all covered with steel and platforms. The three armors were standing in steel supports, and nearly a hundred people were surrounding them, either adding new parts to the main skeleton or debugging the input fixed programs next to the analyzer to ensure that there would be no crashes during actual operation.

Lieutenant Colonel Cromwell stood on the touring platform, with the head of the armor at exactly level with it. Next to him was the chief engineer in charge of assembling the armor, explaining the specific progress and the difficulties encountered so far. He is looking to Cromwell for help with resources and personnel.

A great deal of effort and resources were invested in it, and this phenomenon seemed to be an uncontrolled torrent, and the demands of the chief engineer were all agreed to by Cromwell, as long as they were not particularly excessive.

"The leader can't wait, the king's forces have been preparing for war very actively recently, so the leader said that he hopes that no matter what the method, the progress must be accelerated, and they can't wait until the war starts, they are still a few fixed piles of steel structures. ”

"I understand that we are in a state of full force now. The chief engineer said, "It won't be too long, and the main problem in the final stage is the commissioning of various institutions." There wasn't enough space here, and it was a bit difficult to get feedback data. ”

"Then find a way, this is your domain!"

Looking at Cromwell's back, the chief engineer was a little helpless. He looked at the armor in front of him and sighed. Without a full set of information, relying only on some incomplete information, it is not as easy as imagined to complete it into a complete battle armor. The good thing is that it relies on various institutions to assemble each other, and the bad part is that on the basis of only the core, the whole armor is reversed. So far, there are still some of the many output steam lines on the core of ultra-vapor compression that he does not know the specific function.

I can only take my time, the chief engineer thought. But there is worry and fear in my heart. He knew he was facing a turning point, one for himself and his group of engineers and technicians. Although it is a bit too much to take a life into, as a technician, you don't get respect everywhere you go, but at least you can save your life in most cases by relying on what you have in your head. However, if the actual test of the warframe is not assembled before the ideal timeline in the leader's mind, most of the people in this cavity will most likely lose their freedom for a long time to come.

Kasia skipped work again, but he wasn't ready to go back to work. In the course of one night, he had searched the mine and its surroundings thoroughly, and had not been able to find the most important air defense base, except for three new anti-aircraft weapon launch platforms.

It was completely excluded from the mine, so it was not intended to stay here any longer. After letting Hesley continue to explore the inner workings of the mine and where it was stored, he bought a ticket to the nearest city early that morning. Two hours later, the coach arrived at the station in a drowsy crowd, and after Kassia settled into the hotel, he went to the nearest bookstore and library to consult the maps.

Clues can only be found in the various facilities and energy sources needed for the air defense base. Transportation is also an important part, and these are all taken into account by Kasia. Of course, the biggest advantage of coming to the nearest city is that you can connect with the dark world of this region. There were informants who were not controlled by the rebels, and they could quickly get the information that Kasia wanted.

A map roughly centered on the mine rapidly expanded and improved as the number of books Kasia read. Like a group of prospectors working together to create a topographic map, what Kasia saw was filtered by his extremely fast brain, and little by little added to the panoramic map in his head.

Industrial areas, fast-growing or backward towns, in recent years, projects have been carried out in this area, public buildings have been built, roads have been built, unreasonably uninhabited areas, higher terrain locations, large transport networks, etc. In the evening, Kasia fused the information he had received from the intelligence merchant and added and subtracted a few suspicious locations, and a map that had been marked and judged the priority of the target was completely solidified in his head.

Without immediate action, Kasia finished his business, drank a few glasses of warm water, and looked at the time, it was already three o'clock in the morning. At this point, the spirit that had been overflowing finally became tired, and Kasia exhaled, took a bath, and lay down on the bed to rest.

Even so, the recovery of the spirit was unusually rapid. Despite being in a semi-sleepy state, six hours later, Kasia opened her eyes in sync with the clock. It was a rare good weather outside, and Kasia went to the hotel front desk to vacate the room, walked the remote route, and began to scout the judged target in a hurry.

There are a total of 23 locations, which can not be completed in a day. But the time was calculated just right, and when he returned to gather the town, it was the fastest time for the reinforcements sent by the king's forces to arrive here. If it's not much different from your own conjecture, you can catch up no matter what.

"It's said that the last sighting was in this area. The speaker opened the map and gestured.

"Last sighting, how long ago did I not remember this information on the data?"

"It says that it was two years ago that he appeared here because he was handing over something with another unknown person. ”

"Two years ago!"
