Facts have proven that Gu Yang and Luo Qingmei are indeed very capable in data analysis, especially Luo Qingmei, who used to work in the military region. These data analyses are a piece of cake for her.
Soon, in just a dozen or twenty minutes, Luo Qingmei and Gu Yang had sorted out the relevant data trends. They immediately displayed the route data on a light screen, pointing to several routes that were specially marked in red among the hundreds of routes.
"We've checked over a hundred routes. Excluding those currently in use by spacecraft and those with other spacecraft passing nearby at this time, we've eliminated nearly two-thirds of the possible routes. Then, based on the fuel capacity of the small military aircraft, we've determined the most likely eight routes. The rest is up to you to determine."
After eliminating as many impossible routes as possible, Gu Yang and Luo Qingmei found only eight routes with higher probability. The rest were determined by Tang Sheng and Huo Yan's experience, and they would infer the possible hiding place of the organization based on the terrain and surrounding environment.
For example, if the other party wants to hide their tracks, they probably won't choose a route near densely populated areas.
After looking around, Tang Sheng finally identified two routes with more complex terrain and seemingly more hidden. From this point of view, these two routes are indeed more concealed and can hide people. The terrain and vegetation are almost natural concealment.
But in Huo Yan's opinion, something was missing.
"If I were a member of that organization, the first thing I'd avoid would be these two routes. I know for sure you'll come looking for me there, so why would I walk into their trap? Also, one thing worth noting is that while the terrain along these two routes is rugged and okay for occasional hiding, it's not suitable for building a base. People regularly come to develop the area nearby, and if a base were established there, it would be discovered quickly... So, my intuition tells me that neither of these two routes is right."
After staring at the two 'most likely' routes for a long time, Huo Yan frowned and shook his head. He did not quite agree with Tang Sheng's judgment. Instead, he pointed to one of the routes and asked:
"What kind of place is this? Why didn't you rule this route out in the first round, but did you rule it out in the second round? Judging from the terrain here, this route is also very remote and rarely visited, isn't it?"
"It's not a matter of a lack of people anymore, but it's that almost no spacecraft would choose to fly over here."
Seeing the route Huo Yan pointed to, Gu Yang subconsciously said:
"That's not a new route, but an old one. It used to be a resource development point, and many interstellar flights passed through it. But then word started spreading that it was overdeveloped and that harmful substances were leaking nearby. People passing through that area could hardly get out, so gradually, this route was abandoned. No one flies there anymore, and most people choose other routes to fly around it..."
"Wait, Gu Yang, how long ago did that rumor start? Did it just start recently?"
Hearing this, Huo Yan seemed to have grasped some crucial information, and he immediately asked. Moreover, Huo Yan asked a little hurriedly and loudly, and Gu Yang answered almost reflexively.
"No, not recently, at least nearly thirty years ago..."
"No one has dared to go in that direction for nearly thirty years. So, can we say that even if a base was built there, no one would know about it..."
As soon as Huo Yan said this, everyone present understood what he meant.
Even Tang Sheng immediately came forward to check the route.
Sure enough, this route is also possible. Although there are not as many natural covers as the other two routes, this place is rarely visited. Even if a small military aircraft flies over here, no one will notice it, let alone Huo Yan’s previous analysis.
So, very quickly, a rescue plan came out. They divided their troops into three groups and went to these three routes to look for people.
Tang Sheng and Huo Yan took a small group of people to search for the most likely abandoned route. As for Gu Yang and Luo Qingmei, they stayed where they were and were responsible for information exchange.
Once a team finds something, they will immediately notify the other two teams and ask them to come to reinforce as soon as possible without any attempt to retain them.
After the plan was arranged, Huo Yan and Tang Sheng's team quickly headed directly to the abandoned route over there.
Facts proved that their judgment was correct. Not long after they approached the area, they faintly heard the sound of fighting not far away. When they got closer, they saw a very familiar figure fighting with a group of people.
And this person was none other than one of those who were arrested.
"It's Major Tang Cheng. He's not in good condition right now. It seems his left shoulder was scratched by the energy gun. I don't think he can hold on much longer. I'll go up and help him now. Those behind you, bring two medical kits and follow me."
Tang Sheng had sharp eyes and quickly determined Tang Cheng's current situation. Without saying anything, he sent someone down with a medical kit to help.
In fact, Tang Cheng’s current situation is not only that he can’t hold on for long, it can even be said that he is at the end of his strength. But if he falls, the situation on Tang Tang’s side inside will become more dangerous.
Fortunately, Tang Cheng was not particularly special, but his physical fitness and fighting skills were pretty good, and he relied on this to hold on until the arrival of reinforcements.
Of course, no matter how many soldiers there are outside, if they don't resort to despicable means, they cannot defeat the well-trained regular soldiers of the Federation, not to mention that the ones coming are at the top of the strength level.
Soon, Tang Sheng, Huo Yan and others knocked all these people down. At the same time, someone immediately ran to Tang Cheng's side, activated the treatment box, and provided emergency treatment to Tang Cheng's serious wounds.
But now is not the time to do that.
Tang Cheng's mind told him this very clearly, and the moment he saw Tang Sheng's face appear, he seemed to know who the person in front of him was.
As expected, why didn’t he notice it before?
If Tang Tang is very similar to Tang Yan'er when she was young, then Tang Sheng is about 70% similar to Lin Shoucheng when he was young.
The only difference is that unlike Li Shoucheng's relatively sharp eyebrows and eyes, Tang Sheng's eyebrows and eyes are more like Tang Yan'er, and appear to be gentler. Apart from that, they look very similar. As long as they stand together, it is hard to say that they have no relationship at all.
Of course, Tang Cheng was also a little anxious. After hurriedly tying the bandage, he threw away the robotic arm that was still treating other wounds and shouted anxiously at Tang Sheng and Huo Yan:
"Hurry, Tang Sheng, Huo Yan, all of you follow me. We are running out of time. Tang Tang's situation is not good. She was injected with half a tube of 'first-generation inducer'. Now her pheromones are on the verge of getting out of control. We have to take her to a treatment center for treatment quickly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. 'Inducer No. 1' is already very invasive, and I really don't know how much more invasive the 'first-generation inducer' will be..."
As soon as Tang Cheng said this, the expressions of Tang Sheng and Huo Yan changed drastically.
Tang Sheng, in particular, couldn't help but recall the pain and fear his sister had felt when she underwent repeated 'pheromone induction experiments'. Back then, the inducer was diluted and controlled within a quantitative range, but now, it was the 'first generation inducer'!
It can be said that Tang Sheng, who is feeling extremely anxious now, did not notice Tang Cheng's words that Tang Tang's pheromones are out of control. Only when other people smell the pheromones can we accurately judge whether Tang Tang's pheromones are out of control!
As for Huo Yan, he seemed to have heard it, but also seemed not to have heard it. Or perhaps, just the sentence "Tang Tang is in a bad condition now" had already made him panic. He didn't pay much attention to what Tang Cheng said afterwards. Even before Tang Cheng finished speaking, he had already asked everyone else to stand up and walk behind Tang Cheng, and shouted:
"Let's go, everyone. Let's go rescue people now. Major Tang, please lead the way."
Tang Cheng certainly had no objection to this. He came out so boldly just to meet the support team.
Now that the support team has arrived, he certainly has no time to waste and leads Huo Yan, Tang Sheng and other support soldiers towards the detention room.
However, before the rescue arrived, Tang Tang was in extremely bad condition. It could even be said that their situation was quite bad.
Tang Tang was awakened by Zhang Shang's anxious shouts. She was in a daze and her mind was not clear, so she could not recognize the current situation well.
She could only conclude from Zhang Shang's anxious and fearful cries that Luo Dongyang and other Omegas who had been injected with the 'No. 3 Inducer' were finally unable to control themselves and were collectively out of control.
As luck would have it, at this moment, Lin Ke's team had returned with the more harmful 'Inducer No. 1', and seemed to be confronting Lieutenant General Lin Shoucheng who was guarding outside the door.
Although the sounds outside were not very clear, Tang Tang could still faintly hear the confrontation between Lin Shoucheng and Lin Ke outside the door.
It seemed that at the beginning, when Lin Ke saw Lin Shoucheng guarding here, he seemed a little scared and a little regretful, and kept identifying something for himself.
But when she found that Lin Shoucheng looked at her with indifference, without any hesitation or emotion, a string called "reason" in Lin Ke's heart suddenly broke, and she became hysterical in an instant. The resentment that had accumulated for a long time burst out in that instant!
"I called you father, but what do you think I am?! You're just treating me as a substitute for your 'dead daughter'! I'm just a substitute! Now, I just want to get what I want and don't want anyone to put pressure on me anymore. What have I done wrong?!"
"I've tried my best to do everything the Lin family asked me to do. Isn't that enough? What else do you want from me? I've tried my best, but there are some things I can't do due to my limited abilities! But what about you? If I can't do it, will you abandon me? What did I do wrong? I didn't do anything wrong..."
Tang Tang couldn't hear the rest of the conversation clearly. She only heard that Lin Shoucheng seemed to say something else, and then a fight broke out outside the door.
As the gunshots from the energy gun continued to ring out, Lin Shoucheng outside seemed inevitable to be hit, but even so, he still stayed outside, trying to hold on and not let anyone in.
However, it was obvious that Lin Shoucheng could not hold on to the current situation. Even though he was very strong, he was unarmed and outnumbered, so it would be great if he could hold on for seven or eight minutes.
But as the sounds of fighting outside grew weaker, the others hiding in the detention room sensed that the situation was not good.
Zhang Shang even organized other Betas to guard the door together, and protected the Omegas who had become unconscious due to the influence of pheromones behind them.
"What should we do? Zhang Shang, Lieutenant General Lin is seriously injured and can't move. We don't even know if he's conscious yet. They'll be coming in soon. They have weapons and energy guns. We can't hold out for much longer..."
"Don't give up. It's far from time to give up. If only we could find a way to get a weapon. Even if it's just an energy gun, we'd have a chance to delay the situation for a while..."
"Maybe it's possible. The only chance is when those guys outside break in. We rush in the moment the door opens and knock the energy guns out of their hands. Then, we'll have a chance to pick up the energy guns..."
Zhang Shang and the other Betas were discussing this in low voices, which came into Tang Tang's mind intermittently, taking her a second or two to understand. In fact, the main reason was not because Zhang Shang and the others were discussing in low and intermittent voices, but because she was in great pain.
In the last second, her body seemed to be in a furnace, burning hot, but in the next second, it was as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, as if her entire body and soul were being torn apart by something, and the pain was so severe that she could hardly breathe.
But at the same time, her brain, her consciousness, and her reason were clear, and extremely clear, forcing her to analyze everything in front of her, just like she was in a design studio, analyzing all the data in front of her.
Yes, that’s right, data.
The moment Tang Tang struggled to open her eyes, everything she saw seemed to transform into countless strings of data, which were accurately transmitted into her brain and allowed her to perform the most accurate data analysis.
This is a very subtle state. She seems to be awake, but also seems not to be awake.
Because only her consciousness and her spirit were awake, but her body was still unable to move. She couldn't even support herself to stand up. The most she could do was raise her hands and move her mouth. Even making her vocal cords make a sound was quite difficult.
After Tang Tang tried a little, her reason told her to give up the meaningless struggle and retain some strength in her body. At this moment, the door of the detention room was finally about to be broken open.
Outside, she could hear the sound of doors being broken down, each one getting louder than the last. She also saw Zhang Shang and other Betas squatting nervously on one side of the door, anxiously waiting for their last chance to fight.
This time, Zhang Shang and his team made the right bet.
The moment those people from the outer gate broke in, they were caught off guard and were violently pounced and bumped by Zhang Shang and others. The man walking in front was indeed bumped and let out a cry of annoyance, and the energy gun in his hand was also quickly knocked away by Zhang Shang and others.
But for something like this, Zhang Shang and the other Betas were obviously doing it for the first time and lacked experience. Moreover, their nerves were all on edge. They had done the previous intercepting steps very well, but they made a mistake in the last step.
The energy gun that was knocked out did not fly in the direction they originally calculated, but flew towards Tang Tang and landed not far from Tang Tang's right hand.
Seeing this, Zhang Shang and the others wanted to pick it up, but just as they were about to move, it was too late. They were directly shot out by the other party, and some were even directly aimed at by another energy gun. Lin Ke was standing in front of the door, holding up the energy gun and aiming at a Beta who was about to pick up the energy gun, laughing wildly with a smug look on his face:
"Don't move. If you move again, don't blame me for being blind and shooting you through with my energy gun."
At this moment, the smile on Lin Ke's face was extremely ferocious, making her originally pretty facial features become extremely distorted and ugly.
While threatening the Beta, she even hit the other's right foot unscrupulously, causing the Beta to scream out in pain and unable to control himself. He just held his right leg and groaned, looking very painful. The smell of blood instantly filled the entire detention room.
Seeing this, the expressions on Zhang Shang and other Beta's faces changed and became extremely pale and ugly. They roared and rushed to save people, but in the next moment, energy guns were pointed at their hearts, making them completely unable to move and forced to stand still.
Seeing this, the hideous smile on Lin Ke's face became even more rampant. Looking at Beta who was groaning in pain on the ground, her expression became even more arrogant. She thought that it would be better not to kill him all at once. Such an expression of pain and begging was what she enjoyed and felt the most happy about. What if she hit the other leg as well? Would it look even happier?
Thinking of this, Lin Ke raised the energy gun with wild laughter.
However, just as she was about to aim at the other leg and shoot, a very fast sound, like the sound of pressing the buckle of an energy gun, was heard in the detention room. It did not give others time to think about anything. In the next moment, Lin Ke covered her right hand holding the energy gun in pain and screamed.
Red liquid flowed out of her covered right hand. It was obvious that Lin Ke's right hand was shot by someone, and this energy bomb was obviously fired from this detention room! Who on earth was this person? Who fired this shot?
But at this time, it was too late for them to turn around and look for the source. The next moment, they heard the sound of the energy gun buckle being pressed several times, and it shot straight at other people.
Moreover, all these shots were fired with great accuracy. They either hit their calves, restricting their movements, or directly hit their hands holding the energy guns, forcing them to drop the energy guns.
This time, Zhang Shang and others did not make any mistakes. Instead, they reacted very quickly to pick up the opponent's energy gun, and kicked the opponent hard without hesitation. Then they retreated repeatedly, holding the energy gun and defending against the opponent.
It was at this moment, as the angle of light outside changed, that everyone could clearly see who had fired those extremely accurate shots just out of the detention room!
The person who fired these energy guns was none other than Tang Tang herself. At the critical moment, she concentrated all her strength on her right hand, and without hesitation, she fired a few shots very decisively, completely interrupting the opponent's rhythm and reversing the absolutely disadvantageous situation on their side.
Although Tang Tang and his team still have disadvantages, at least they are not in a completely passive situation. If they can seize the energy gun, they at least have a chance to fight back.
However, the moment Lin Ke saw Tang Tang's face clearly, she couldn't control herself and screamed in anger, shouting and yelling in extreme anger:
"It's you, it's you again! Tang Tang, you've ruined my plans again. It's always like this. Every time you ruin my plans, this is the third time, including this time. There won't be a next time!"
"Indeed, I won't let you do it again."
Just as Lin Ke finished speaking, Tang Tang's hoarse but extremely cold voice came over, and at the moment this voice sounded, the sound of pressing the buckle was heard again.
But this time, for some reason, Lin Ke felt that Tang Tang's cold voice was very scary. He didn't dare to look directly into Tang Tang's extremely cold eyes, but wanted to avoid him reflexively.
It was this dodging that saved Lin Kejian's life. If she had not dodged, the attack would not only hit Lin Ke's left shoulder, but would have hit her heart directly. This is what Tang Tang meant when she said just now, "I won't let you have a next time."
So, Lin Ke was completely crazy at this moment, and wanted to attack Tang Tang who was now unable to move, but he was stopped by Zhang Shang and others, which made the expression on Lin Ke's face more and more ferocious.
After a long while, Lin Ke didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly he burst into a ferocious laugh.
"Oh, guess what I remembered now. Hahahaha, your current state is probably affected by pheromones, Tang Tang, you are an Omega, right? Since you are an Omega, I have a lot of ways to deal with you. Look at what I am holding in my hand now...?"
As Lin Ke said this, he took out something.
The familiar green transparent liquid and the familiar unpleasant smell, needless to say, these things can only be "inducers", and these are probably the "Inducers No. 1" that I overheard them taking before!
