Chapter 276 Architecture in the Deep Mountains and Forests
Meng Qingyin clicked on the location posted by the elderly man and found that it was not far from them.
The specific terrain there cannot be seen on the map, but if Chairman Chen really wants to set a trap there to wipe them out, he will definitely do something about the terrain.
Chen Leying had also thought of this. She looked at Zhang Yan and asked, "Do you have any tools similar to drones that can detect things from the air?"
Zhang Yan's abilities mean he'll have plenty of props; he even has things like message cranes and GPS cards, and maybe even drones.
"Do you guys think I'm Doraemon?" Zhang Yan said helplessly, but still honestly started rummaging through his system inventory.
A moment later, his eyes lit up: "I've got it, the detector! Once bound, it can detect the terrain within a 10km radius and send the terrain data to the bound user's wristwatch. It can even detect the fine veins of every single leaf."
Lu Cheng leaned closer, his tone envious: "Dude, you've got a lot of good stuff."
Zhang Yan snorted with his nostrils pointing to the sky, "That's right, I've got plenty of strength."
"If you're so strong, why did you get beaten up like that?" Lu Cheng clicked his tongue twice.
Zhang Yan, enraged, shouted, "How many times have I told you it was knocked over! Do you still want to lend me your probe? If not, then forget it!"
He made a gesture as if to put the probe back into the system backpack.
Qin Jiu pulled Lu Cheng away, saying, "Lu Cheng doesn't know how to talk, Brother Zhang Yan, don't take it to heart!"
Lu Cheng said sarcastically, "Yo yo yo, Brother Zhang Yan~"
Zhang Yan was furious: "You!"
Qin Jiu slapped Lu Cheng on the forehead, "Shut up and apologize to Brother Zhang Yan!"
Lu Cheng's head was buzzing. Under Qin Jiu's "tyranny," he had no choice but to apologize: "I'm sorry!"
Zhang Yan finally calmed down: "Forget it, I'm magnanimous and won't stoop to your level."
The group returned to the ground. Zhang Yan attached himself to the probe and used the remote control to take it into the air, flying towards the location sent by the elderly man.
At the same time, Zhang Yan's wristwatch also received images sent back from the probe's port.
Zhang Yan needed to focus on operating the probe, so he couldn't see the images it sent back. Fortunately, the images could be shared with friends.
To prevent missing important information, he forwarded the video to Meng Qingyin.
Meng Qingyin forwarded the video to the group chat, saying, "I've posted it in the group, please keep an eye on it."
It's always better to have five pairs of eyes observing than just one.
As Zhang Yan piloted the probe forward, he casually remarked, "You guys even have a group chat?"
Meng Qingyin and the others froze.
Lu Cheng looked at the scene before him with some excitement: "This is the first time I've seen the ground from this perspective. I feel like I've become an eagle."
Qin Jiu couldn't help but say, "You're at best a house sparrow."
Fei Qiu: "Haha."
Chen Leying: "Hehe."
Meng Qingyin: "Mmm."
Zhang Yan: "..." I can tell, the five of them are isolating him.
He snorted coldly and continued to operate the probe, but increased the force in his hand.
It's just a small group chat, he doesn't care to join.
Back in the day, he had joined at least 800,000 customer groups. Zhang Yan was the kind of person who wanted to join other people's group chats.
Haha, he doesn't care!
Zhang Yan didn't say anything more, and with a strange sense of loss, he continued to fly the probe.
Meng Qingyin and the other four naturally didn't say much, keeping their eyes glued to the screen, afraid of missing any important information.
Soon, the probe arrived directly above the location of the elderly man.
To prevent the probe from being detected by the enemy, Zhang Yan controlled it to fly very high, so that from the ground it would be just a tiny black dot that no one would notice.
Therefore, the area of the scene that Meng Qingyin and others saw was very large, which made it impossible to see many details clearly.
Lu Cheng practically leaned into the screen. "Could you shrink the image size a bit?"
Meng Qingyin: "No need, let's take a look at the terrain first."
She stared intently at the screen, piecing together a topographical map in her mind through this overhead view.
At the very center of the picture are cliffs on both sides, with a dense forest below.
The location of the "spirited old man" is in the dense forest in the middle of the cliff, making it easy to set up an ambush there.
First, there are cliffs with many huge rocks on them, which can be used to create traps. Second, there are forests where traps can be set.
Another advantage is numerical superiority. If the opponent wants to use a numerical superiority strategy, the forest can provide excellent cover.
Since the other party has planned to wipe them out in one fell swoop, and Chairman Chen is a very cautious person, he must have made several preparations.
Regardless of the type, it's a near-death experience for them.
but……
Meng Qingyin stared at the incomplete gray-black area in the upper right corner of the screen and said in a deep voice, "Zhang Yan, fly to the right front."
Zhang Yan: "Huh? The probe has already reached the location of the old man. If it flies any further, it will deviate from its course."
Meng Qingyin: "Fly forward, and I think I see buildings."
Lu Cheng's eyes nearly went blind from looking at it: "Buildings? Where are the buildings? I don't see any!"
As they spoke, the scene began to move again, with Zhang Yan maneuvering the probe forward.
Meng Qingyin stared intently at the dark gray area hidden in the forest; yes, it was indeed a building.
Chen Leying also saw it, "How could there be a building in the deep mountains and forests?"
This place is far from the highway, with cliffs and dense forests, isn't it a deep mountain forest?
Lu Cheng stared intently at the screen, almost crossing his eyes, before he could make out a patch of gray and black. He exclaimed in disbelief, "No way? How could you two tell that it was a building from such a tiny bit of footage? Are you seeing things? What kind of kind person would build a house in the forest?"
Qin Jiu: "So they must be doing something shady in secret."
Suddenly, the screen shook, as if something had slapped it.
Lu Cheng: "What's wrong?"
Zhang Yan struggled to control the probe, and then the scene shifted, with the probe's perspective shifting to the air.
All the people saw was a very thin bird flash across the screen and quickly disappear.
"What kind of bird is that? It's so skinny!" Lu Cheng muttered.
Zhang Yan: "The probe must have been hit by that bird just now, but thankfully it wasn't damaged."
Then, he manipulated the screen to return to the ground once again.
The image of that thin, frail bird lingered in Meng Qingyin's mind.
Judging from the direction it came from, the bird seemed to have flown in from the direction of the gray-black building.
And that building was hidden in a deserted place...
She is becoming increasingly uneasy.
Chen Leying: "What's wrong?"
Meng Qingyin took a deep breath and voiced her suspicion, "I suspect that the Endangered Animals Protection Association is doing something to profit from animals."
