After the captain's order was carried out, everyone except the crew of the second ship re-established a chat channel.
Meng Chen grabbed the microphone and shouted into it.
"From now on, the people on the second ship have been completely taken over by Earthlings, so everyone must be careful from now on and not reveal your own situation to them. Now we need to find out the mastermind behind them, understand?"
The captains of the three fleets answered loudly, but their minds were in turmoil.
"Damn it, who are these people? They've even managed to seize a patrol ship!"
"Yeah, that's amazing! You know, the patrol ships have incredibly strong firepower. How did they manage to hijack so many ships? Why didn't we hear any gunfire?"
"Perhaps those people used stealth to advance, something Earthlings love to do."
The people below were sharing their thoughts one by one.
Lu Yuan, holding the walkie-talkie, listened for a long time without any conversation, and immediately sensed that something was wrong.
So he turned and shouted to the other team members beside him.
"By the way, can you still hear signals from other patrol ships?"
The monitoring team members all shook their heads.
"No, boss, they just vanished into thin air. They're still in the same chat room, but they've already left!"
After Lu Yuan hummed in agreement, the smile on his face instantly vanished.
"They still found out. We were planning to expose the mastermind behind this, but they were wrong."
Lu Yuan did not act rashly. Instead, he looked at the ship's configuration on the map and finally found a place marked with "heavy weapons".
"You guys, get the heavy weapons under control right now. Don't let anyone in. Oh, and tell me how many weapons are inside. Get a complete count, quick, right now!"
The adjutant standing next to Lu Yuan had been with him for several months and knew his lifestyle and dietary preferences very well.
He immediately took two assistants and ran towards the heavy weapons depot.
Lu Yuan sat in the control room, a hint of panic on his face. He knew that if things dragged on any longer, he might get shot.
If he really wanted to take a hit, Lu Yuan could probably avoid dying because he had a dimensional space.
But the situation is uncertain for others. Their team doesn't have many members, and if they are here, they will lose a lot of manpower.
Their plan might fall through, so in order to capture the supply ship, he had to strike first.
Since the other party is unwilling and has already discovered your actions, there is no need to say anything more to them.
Let's confront him head-on and see who's stronger. If we can sink his ship, that would be even better.
After waiting anxiously for about ten minutes, a series of thumping sounds came from outside, and then an assistant was pushed aside, who handed over a small notebook.
"Found it, found it all! This is the usage record from five days ago; there are many heavy weapons inside!"
Lu Yuan took the notebook and flipped through it a few times, becoming increasingly distressed with each reading.
"Damn it, they're all conventional weapons. The enemy's warships could easily intercept them! Looks like we're missing some underwater weapons. You guys go back and keep searching! You absolutely must find those underwater weapons! I need underwater weapons! Understand? Go now!!"
The other assistants standing nearby were stunned for a moment after hearing his words.
"Mr. Lu, do you mean we should go to war with the supply ship? We can't beat them. Right now, we can't even withstand one of their shells!"
"Yes, Mr. Lu, please think it over carefully. This battle cannot be fought lightly! We are simply no match for them! The gap is too great!"
"Mr. Lu, there's no need to fight them head-on. There will be other opportunities. Let's go back!"
"Mr. Lu, their firepower is simply too strong! We are no match for them at all. Let's retreat!"
Looking at the pleading faces of each person, Lu Yuan's eyes were filled with sorrow.
These people are completely terrified of the Earthlings.
They hadn't even gotten their hands on the weapons yet, and these people were already backing down, not even having the courage to try. This made Lu Yuan feel that these people had completely lost confidence.
Lu Yuan ignored their pleas and waited quietly.
Time passed by, and every second felt like torture.
Lu Yuan looked down at the time.
Finally, ten minutes passed, and the second group of people returned.
They returned with another list of weapons.
"Mr. Lu, we've found a new weapon! It was found in a very inconspicuous place, but the weapon here looks quite unusual!"
After saying that, the other party handed a list to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan glanced at the weapon serial numbers on the list, which he didn't recognize at all, so he picked up his computer and started searching for relevant information.
Soon, the names of all the weapons were found, and Lu Yuan finally found one that he could use.
"Great! Take me down there right now!"
On the other side, Meng Chen's face showed a joyful expression.
He was now certain that the people on Patrol Ship No. 2 were Earthlings, and that they had already taken control of the crew.
The main reason he didn't take action was that he wanted to follow the clues, capture Lu Yuan and his group alive, and then take them to the camp behind.
After all, Earthlings are not easy to capture. If you manage to capture them and report it to higher authorities, you might even receive a reward.
Although Meng Chen is now the captain of a supply ship, he is not satisfied with his current income level at all. Especially when he thinks about his wife wanting to buy a bigger mansion and his child needing a more comfortable school district, he has already made a decision: this group of people must be caught.
So he immediately ordered the crew of the other three ships to approach cautiously, while he released some false signals to confuse Lu Yuan.
Neither side knew what the other was doing; both were keeping their own thoughts to themselves.
Ding ding ding, Lu Yuan quickly climbed the stairs and arrived at the secluded place.
A strong smell of blood wafted from inside the cabin.
Two corpses of Earthlings lay sprawled in the corner, seemingly crew members guarding the area.
