"How many people are there? How is their equipment? Can you see the flag clearly?" Mou Xuan took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and threw out a series of questions like a machine gun.
The team member was intimidated by Mou Xuan's momentum and stammered, "There are...quite a few people, probably...probably hundreds of people, and their equipment...looks quite good, with several modified off-road vehicles, and...and heavy machine guns! The flag...I couldn't see the flag clearly, we were too far away, and I was afraid they would find us..."
"Hundreds of people? Heavy machine guns?" Mou Xuan frowned. This was no joke.
In the end times, strength in numbers is the only truth, not to mention that the other side has heavy firepower!
If we go head-on, we will definitely suffer.
"These bastards have sharper noses than dogs! As soon as we found some treasure, they came here following the scent!" The raw material purchaser was so angry that he stomped his feet and slammed his fist on the table, making the teacup lid clang.
"Why are you panicking? If the sky collapses, there are tall people to hold it up!" Mou Xuan glared at him, then turned to the intelligence officer and said, "You did a good job in not alerting the enemy. Now, go back immediately and continue to monitor their every move. If there is any movement, report to me immediately!"
"Yes, Brother Xuan!" The intelligence officer felt relieved and turned around and ran out.
"Brother Xuan, what should we do now? How about... let's retreat? As long as we have the green mountains, we will have firewood to burn!" someone suggested, with a hint of timidity in his voice.
"Retreat? Where to retreat? We have put in so much effort and are on the verge of success. If we retreat now, won't all our previous efforts be in vain?" Mou Xuan said firmly, "Besides, the basalt veins outside the 'Death Valley' are the key to our construction of the 'Doomsday Highway'! Without basalt, our roads are shoddy projects that cannot withstand the impact of zombies, not to mention the 'transportation network'!"
"But...Brother Xuan, the other side has more people and more power. If we fight head-on, we will definitely suffer a loss!"
"Who said we have to fight head-on? We are not fools!" Mou Xuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, "I have the 'time power'! Why should I be afraid of this bunch of rabble?"
"That's right! How could I forget about this! Brother Xuan is a man who can 'travel through time and space'!" Everyone suddenly realized, and the originally tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Maozi, don't rush to the 'Death Valley'. Stay at the base and be on standby at any time." Mou Xuan said to the Mao material purchaser.
"Brother Xuan, what about you?"
"Me? Of course I'm going to meet these 'uninvited guests'!" A cold light flashed in Mou Xuan's eyes, "Dare to steal my things? I'm going to let them know what it means to 'lose both the wife and the army'!"
After saying that, Mou Xuan selected a few agile and experienced team members, took their weapons and equipment, and left the base quietly.
On the outskirts of "Death Valley", in a desolate Gobi desert.
A convoy consisting of more than a dozen modified off-road vehicles was driving slowly.
The cars are all painted with ferocious skull logos, making them look particularly arrogant.
"Boss, are we really going to set up camp here? This place... looks creepy!" One of the men approached the leading off-road vehicle and asked cautiously.
"What are you afraid of? When has our Skull and Bones Society ever been afraid of anything?" The car window rolled down, revealing a bald man with a face full of flesh and sunglasses. "I've received news that there's a treasure nearby! As long as we can find it, we'll have a good life and won't have to live on the edge of a knife anymore!"
"But Boss, I heard that this 'Death Valley' is very weird, and no one who has entered it has ever come out alive!"
"Bullshit! That's just a scare tactic! I don't believe it!" The bald man spat, "Besides, there are so many of us, how can we be afraid of a few ghosts?"
Just then, a strong wind blew, blowing up yellow sand all over the sky.
"Cough cough cough...What a horrible weather!" The bald man was choked and started coughing. He quickly closed the car window.
"Boss, what do you see there?" A sharp-eyed subordinate suddenly pointed at the distance and exclaimed.
The bald man looked closely and saw a huge black vortex vaguely appearing in the sky filled with yellow sand, like a giant beast that was ready to devour its prey, opening its bloody mouth and waiting for its prey to arrive.
"What...what the hell is this?" The bald man was also a little panicked. Although he was fearless, he couldn't help feeling scared when facing this supernatural scene.
"Boss, let's...let's retreat!"
"Retreat? Where to retreat? I don't believe this!" The bald man gritted his teeth and tried to remain calm, "Everyone, speed up! Charge forward!"
However, just as they accelerated towards the black vortex, something strange happened!
Suddenly, several dazzling white lights shot out from the black vortex and accurately hit several off-road vehicles in the convoy.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
After a few loud bangs, the off-road vehicles were instantly blown into pieces, and the "Skull and Bones Society" members in the vehicles turned into ashes before they could even scream.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The members of the "Skull and Bones Society" suddenly became chaotic and turned their cars around, trying to escape from this strange area.
However, no matter how fast they were, they could not be faster than Mou Xuan's "time power".
Mou Xuan's figure moved through the convoy like a ghost.
Every flash was accompanied by a scream and the fall of a Skull and Bones Society member.
"What kind of monster is this?"
The members of the Skull and Bones Society completely collapsed.
