Chapter 494: Suspicious Man
Half an hour later, Hua Yuyu ed, "Alpha One in position."
Soon after, Xie Wei added, "Alpha Three in position."
Wu Jun typed several lines of code, then responded, "Roger that. Connecting the tower in three... two... one."
He pressed Enter, and the final two towers’ status turned green.
"Connection successful. Alpha One, Alpha Three, return to headquarters."
"Roger that."
"Roger that."
After ending the communication, Wu Jun looked up from the laptops and said calmly, "Miss Bai, we can begin the next stage."
"Alright."
Hearing this, Bao Shengjie grinned and rubbed his palms. "It’s my turn now."
Holding a controller in his hand, Bao Shengjie caught Gui Ying’s attention.
After casting a cleansing spell on himself, Gui Ying walked over curiously. "What’s this?" he asked, pointing at the black military drone placed on the ground.
Bao Shengjie proudly presented the black military drone and explained, "This is the newest military drone launched this year."
"Do you see this?" he asked, pointing at the two white missiles mounted beneath the drone.
Without waiting for Gui Ying’s response, he continued, "These two missiles have the power to destroy a small city."
Listening to the conversation from the side, Feng Xiyan’s eyes flickered with surprise. He stepped closer to Bao Shengjie and examined the miniature missiles carefully.
Pointing at them, he asked doubtfully, "Are these two small white things really that powerful?"
Bao Shengjie nodded. "It’s understandable if you don’t believe it. You will see its power on the battlefield later. For now, I will show you one of the drone’s basic functions—reconnaissance."
With that, Bao Shengjie carried the military drone to the balcony. After placing it on the floor, he returned to his seat and picked up the controller.
The moment he activated the drone, its propellers spun rapidly, and the drone slowly lifted into the air.
Gui Ying watched the drone fly away with keen interest, while Feng Xiyan’s gaze flickered thoughtfully, his mind racing.
The two of them followed the drone with their eyes until it vanished from sight, then returned inside.
Standing behind Bao Shengjie, Bai Hanyun stared at the laptop screen displaying a bird’s-eye view of Xiqiang City.
"Feng Xiyan, quick—come and take a look!" she called excitedly, never taking her eyes off the screen.
As Bao Shengjie controlled the drone flying over Xiqiang City and toward the farmland beyond the southern walls, Feng Xiyan’s heart pounded harder with each passing second.
Clenching his hands, he glanced at Bai Hanyun, Wu Jun, and Bao Shengjie.
’With this kind of equipment, flattening the Yu Empire would be as easy as flipping a hand. Even uniting the Central Continent wouldn’t be a problem.’
He took a deep breath to steady himself and thought,
’With their help, the day I avenge my clan is not far away.’
Unaware that their simple demonstration of a military drone had deeply shaken Feng Xiyan and revealed to him the terrifying power of modern warfare, Bai Hanyun smiled and asked, "Feng Xiyan, do you want to wipe out the Jin Empire’s army?"
The moment she asked, Feng Xiyan’s heart trembled. Staring at her, he thought,
’Could it be...?’
Not daring to pursue the thought, he quickly shook his head. "I plan to recruit the Jin Army soldiers instead. If this war can end without bloodshed, it would be best to spare their lives."
After saying that, he carefully observed Bai Hanyun’s expression. Seeing her fall silent in thought, Feng Xiyan held his breath.
A few seconds passed before Bai Hanyun finally nodded. "Alright. Since you want to recruit them, we will use the drone to scare them into submission."
Hearing this, Feng Xiyan secretly let out a long sigh of relief.
’I thought she was really going to wipe out the entire Jin Empire Army.’
Turning to Wu Jun, Bai Hanyun asked, "Brother Wu, I heard from Brother Hua that you are the one who is responsible for devising mission plans for the team."
Wu Jun nodded. "That’s right."
"Then can you help devise a plan to help General Zhan win the war at Yurong Border Pass without killing the Jin Empire’s soldiers?" she asked again.
Wu Jun thought for a moment before replying, "Sure. When do you need it?"
Bai Hanyun pondered for a second, then turned to Feng Xiyan. "Do you know General Zhan’s current position?"
After calculating briefly, Feng Xiyan replied, "If they travel at maximum speed without rest, it will take at least four days for General Zhan and his troops to reach Yurong Border Pass."
Seeing that she had fallen into deep thought, he asked, "Yun’er, are you planning to catch up with General Zhan?"
Bai Hanyun nodded. "Since we plan to make the Jin Empire’s army surrender, we need to meet with General Zhan and discuss the plan in detail."
When Wu Jun heard this, he said, "Miss Bai, I can give you the complete plan in half an hour."
Hearing that, Bai Hanyun’s eyes lit up. "Great. Then I will trouble you, Brother Wu."
"This is just a small matter," Wu Jun replied, already typing rapidly on his laptop.
While Wu Jun worked on the plan, Bao Shengjie had already flown the military drone in a full circle around Xiqiang City. As it passed above the refugee camp, he noticed something unusual.
"Brother Feng, Miss Bai, I think you two need to see this."
Hearing him, Bai Hanyun and Feng Xiyan leaned closer to the laptop screen.
Guiding the military drone to hover above the refugee camp, Bao Shengjie pointed at the screen and said, "Look at this."
With that, he zoomed in on the military drone’s camera.
The moment Bai Hanyun and Feng Xiyan saw the scene below, their expressions sank.
Hidden among the refugees was a man with a filthy face and tattered clothes, sneaking around with clear suspicion in his movements.
"Can you zoom in further?" Bai Hanyun asked.
Bao Shengjie nodded and zoomed in again.
When Feng Xiyan finally saw the man’s face clearly, his eyes turned icy.
"I thought they had fled far away, but they actually dared to come here instead." He sneered coldly and chuckled. "Since they have delivered themselves to my doorstep, this general won’t be polite."
Sensing the sudden change in his aura, Bai Hanyun shuddered, rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, and silently lit a candle for that man.
