Chapter 17 On the Mississippi River

Driving back to Queens, the most wealthy area on Manhattan Island, Lin Fan entered the seaside villa vacation apartment bought by billions of dollars.

Then return to the original Zerg base at a depth of 6,000 meters through Digger's Tunnel.

Iziza stood beside the ruler's throne and said respectfully: "Master, the swarm has grown stronger, but we still lack resources. But Iziza also has good news for you."

"Let's talk about it." Lin Fan sat on the ruler's throne and embraced Izza's plump body in his arms.

Izisa smiled and said: "Master, the swarm has absorbed many gene sequences this time. Although these gene sequences are inferior, useless, and rough, they are enough to help you open the technology tree and learn the first major technology."

"This is good news." Lin Fan nodded and walked quickly to the evolution pit.

Izzy quickly followed.

In the evolution pit, various insectoids are stored in countless insect eggs embedded on the wall, and a black iron-colored wall appears at the end, on which a tree-shaped pattern is emerging.

Lin Fan came here and pressed his hands on it, a lot of information flooded his mind.

Eye of God: One of the main technologies of the Zerg. Connecting the database with the Eye of God will allow you to see all the unknowns, and use this biological technology to find the target's weaknesses, and at the same time, you can study and study on the spot.

the next day.

Lin Fan arrived at the place agreed with Da George.

After the handover between George and Colonel Todd, Lin Fan was given a set of standard equipment.

Lin Fan then took off on one of dozens of Apache transport planes.

Colonel Todd personally led the team, and on the way he began to explain the content of the mission.

"This mission is funded and sponsored by Osborn, and the purpose is to target blood orchids in the branch jungle of the Amazon forest."

"This plant only has a very short flowering period, and is known as the flower of immortality in the field of medicinal chemistry. When you complete this task, you will get a huge promotion. You will have the opportunity to participate in the selection of Black Watch recruits in half a month."

"But I want to tell you, don't expect this task to be easy. There are cannibals who regard blood orchids as sacred objects, and all kinds of wild beasts who grew up eating blood orchids."

"According to information, the blood-sucking mosquito with the size of a fist, scientifically known as the Devil Mosquito, has enough venom in its body to kill several buffaloes... There are also centipedes with long arms, spiders with big heads, and giant snakes tens of meters long, hidden deep in the A giant crocodile in the water."

"Keep your spirits up, don't let me let your guard down, this time we dispatched a total of 586 soldiers, I hope you all come back!"

"The next thing I want to talk about is some special requirements. Osborn has dispatched several entourages this time, and you must protect their personal safety, otherwise even if you die, the pension will be lost."

"The above is over."

Colonel Todd is not very old, he is not yet forty years old. With his achievements, he should have been promoted to major general long ago, and he should have been sitting in the base to enjoy his leisure time.

But he prefers to go to the battlefield. For him, letting him sit in the office is more sad than death.

Sitting next to Lin Fan, Todd laughed and said, "How about it, young man, isn't this atmosphere very cool?"

"Is it a death mission?" Lin Fan checked the M16 assault rifle in his hand, and the movements were skillful, not like the qualities that recruits should have.

Todd touched his bald head, grabbed a cigar from his trouser pocket, turned on the lighter and lit it, then took two puffs and said: "If a soldier doesn't go to the real battlefield, how can he improve himself, but you won't blame me for bringing you closer to this task." Let's go."

"No wonder. Because I am sure to survive." Lin Fan put the assault rifle aside, and quickly began to change clothes.

Todd was a little surprised. This Chinese has a good psychological quality. If he can come back alive, even if he can't get into Blackwatch, he can still shine in the Marine Corps. "Hahaha, okay, if you come back alive, I'll make you a corporal. I saw your skills on TV yesterday, so you shouldn't have to train recruits for three months."

Dozens of transport planes departed at dawn.

hours later...

Brazil.

Mississippi River.

Osborne's entourage was already here waiting for Colonel Todd.

Because of the border issue, it was delayed for a little time, and it is only now arriving, which caused some delays.

But since Osborne's men had no boats to go downriver, the delay was nothing.

Now it is the rainy season, and it rains for two and a half days out of three days, causing the river to swell, and many boats refuse to go out, even if the price is high.

As for going there by Apache transport plane? The transport plane with heavy firepower that was denied entry before entering Brazil? Even if there is no hostility, the embassy will not let it go, otherwise it will be directly bombarded by missiles.

In the end there were some soldiers in the Marine Corps who knew how to sail a boat, so Osborne bought a large number of boats as a substitute tool.

However, they still need to find a guide for places they are not familiar with. After inquiring, they learned that a senior guide named Jin Song was invited by Colonel Todd and Mark, the person in charge of Osborne.

And Lin Fan found Gwen and Jessica in Osborn's team.
