Chapter 182 Activate the Locator
Xu Tao replied excitedly, "Of course. Please go this way." Xu Tao was very young, and the other soldiers were not very old either. The supply point they were at was remote, with few resources around it, and there were several dangerous areas, which made it difficult for them to expand outward, so all conditions were very poor.
Lin Mo turned to look at Ning Xuan. Ning Xuan nodded, and then Lin Mo walked in front.
Under the leadership of Xu Tao, they soon arrived at their destination, Supply Point No. 7 under the jurisdiction of the Second Legion.
Supply Point No. 7 is located among a barren area of red rock hills. The rugged basalt forms a natural barrier, half-hiding this simple military outpost in the seemingly rugged terrain.
The site was obviously chosen with careful calculations - the cliffs surrounding it on three sides can form a natural defense line, and the only entrance is across a dry riverbed. The river channel formed by this fine sand is not easy to build nests, which can effectively avoid the raids of underground creatures.
Granite and broken alloy plates are spliced into the outer shell of the main building on the ground. The alloy plates reflect light and are not easy to spot from a distance.
There are soldiers guarding the entrance of the gate, and there are wide and deep trenches around it as fortifications.
With Xu Tao and his team leading the way, the soldiers on duty lowered the drawbridge, and two mechanical vehicles of similar style drove into the supply point one after the other. The vehicle used by Xu Tao and his team was also a temporary assembled mechanical vehicle, which did not look as exquisite as the one assembled by Wang Yue. Because it was a temporary means of transportation, the mechanical vehicle driven by Wang Yue did not have a mobile single-shot cannon installed, so it was not very eye-catching.
The vehicle drove into the gate of Supply Point No. 7, attracting the attention of the garrisoned soldiers. They had been here for three months, and all they saw were dusty comrades or ferocious and terrifying monsters coming and going. It had been a long time since they had seen new faces, especially since there were two women in Ning Xuan's group. Many soldiers were secretly looking at them.
Xu Tao led Lin Mo and his party directly to the command center of Supply Point No. 7. As they walked inside, Ning Xuan noticed that there were several watchtowers ranging from 10 to 20 meters high inside the supply point, as well as many underground passages. It seemed that the real main building of Supply Point No. 7 was hidden underground.
The one in charge of Supply Point No. 7 is a major general-level military cadre who also graduated from the Central Star Military Academy and has a good family background and personal talents.
In the garrison troops, the supreme commander of each safety zone or supply point, or the liaison officer or inspector between safety zones needs to be a strong officer with rich combat experience, and there is no age limit for them.
Fang Gan is 36 years old this year. However, even though he is old, he has to stand up and salute when he sees Lin Mo. Fang Gan was still somewhat casual when saluting Lin Mo, but when he saw Yun Han coming in behind Lin Mo, Fang Gan's whole body tensed up. Why did the supreme commander of the Tianwei Independent Legion come here? Is there going to be a serious danger at the No. 7 supply point?
It's no wonder Fang Gan thought so. Lin Mo is an officer of the Second Legion. Fang Gan knew that he was on vacation with the Contract Master. He didn't know much about Yun Han. He only heard that some time ago, Yun Han led a team to provide support in the wormhole battlefield and persisted for more than a month with remarkable achievements.
Now that he appeared on the new planet, based on his military rank, he was at least the supreme commander of the large security zone. Why did he come to their remote supply point No. 7?
"Commander Yun, why are you here?" Fang Gan asked respectfully but nervously.
Xu Tao couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw that Major General Fang was more respectful to Yun Han than to Lin Mo. Yun Han had not been very active in the military's various propaganda videos in recent years, and Xu Tao, a newcomer who had emerged in recent years, was not familiar with him.
Yun Han nodded slightly, stepped aside, and bowed to Ning Xuan who came in later.
The moment Fang Gan saw Ning Xuan, he instantly understood that such a beautiful young woman should be the one that General Lin was destined to marry.
"Hello Commander Fang, I'm Ning Xuan, a student at the Central Star Military Academy. I'm here to take part in the federal college graduate entrance exam. They are all my teammates. I'm here to activate the locator and look up some information." Ning Xuan said to Fang Gan.
"You are very welcome, Miss Ning. I will help you activate the locator right away. Has the graduation examination started? You are the first candidate to be received at our supply point. Do you have any other requirements?" Fang Gan asked nervously. Because of his nervousness, he didn't know what he was saying.
Judging from Commander Yun's attitude towards Ning Xuan, is Miss Ning his employer or his master? With Yun Han's status as the commander of the Tianwei Corps and the heir of the Seven Stars Divine Mountain, who can afford to hire him?
Or, is Ning Xuan also Yun Han's contract master? With this guess, Fang Gan looked at Ning Xuan with a different look.
"We are new here and may need to stay for a few days. What will we need to pay for?" Ning Xuan asked.
"No, you don't have to pay anything. Miss Ning can stay here as long as you want." With Yun Han and Lin Mo following them, Fang Gan wished Ning Xuan could stay here forever.
"I need to check the information currently collected and made public by the military. We hunted some prey on the way here. Let's see if it has any value." Ning Xuan said.
"Okay, please come this way." Fang Gan said immediately.
Fang Gan personally brought Ning Xuan and others to the underground information registration hall. In the hall, cold white light poured down from the ceiling, shining on the neatly arranged holographic projection screens. Dozens of floating screens slowly rotated around the central data processor. Light blue light patterns flowed on the screens, refreshing the encryption mark of the military database in real time.
Fang Gan stopped in front of the identifier at the entrance, and the light of the iris scan flashed by. "Commander of Supply Point No. 7 in Area 3, ordinary authority authentication passed." A mechanical female voice sounded, and the security door of the hall opened.
There is a transparent protective cover around the central data processor. The level of the cover is very high and it cannot be approached. What Ning Xuan and the others want to check is the information that has been published and can be found on any screen.
While querying the information, the positioning device in Ning Xuan's hand was successfully activated. She took a look and saw that the current coordinates were "15.3, 72.9". Chen Nan, Lan Xin and Zhang Nan were drawing the known topographic map of the new star according to the information released by the military. Yun Han and Lin Mo were responsible for recording the known species on the new star announced by the military. Wang Yue and Wang Teng were recording resource points, dangerous areas and other special locations.
"Miss Ning, we currently have 667 troops stationed at supply point No. 7, including 37 technical soldiers. Most of the soldiers have A and S levels of mental strength. Because we haven't received support from headquarters for a long time, there is currently a shortage of energy and many equipment are no longer usable." Fang Gan said with a sigh.
