Chapter 862 Stronghold Zero
Under this situation, the battle line of the organized troops was suddenly stretched into a long strip. Facing the attack of the Revolutionary League, it was completely unable to organize effective resistance, and nearly three thirds of it was quickly eaten by the Revolutionary League. one of the troops.
Finally, when the number reached half, the organization had to give up chasing Qi Lin, and instead concentrated all its remaining troops to start a deadly fight with the Revolutionary Alliance.
But unfortunately, the organization had already lost the opportunity from the beginning. Whether it was terrain, firepower, numbers, or even morale, they were all at a disadvantage. Even if they started to form a group to counterattack now, they would not be able to tilt the balance of victory towards them. .
"...Retreat. The target should be far away now, and the Revolutionary Alliance people can't catch up with them." The speaker sighed, and finally issued the order to retreat.
He really didn't expect that the heavy siege originally laid to intercept Qi Lin turned into an "escort operation". Not only that, he also had to fight to make his men pay more casualties to kill the Revolutionary League people. Stop him so that they can't catch up with Qi Lin.
Even if the organization cannot catch Qi Lin, it must not let him fall into the hands of the Revolutionary Alliance. What's more, there is Qin and Qi Lin walking together, which will make him even more jealous.
On the other side, after Qi Lin "held hostage" Qin and ran for more than ten kilometers, he finally stopped at a highway intersection - as early as five minutes ago, the organized soldiers who were following them had given up. The few remaining sentries followed, but they were killed one by one by Qi Lin with great precision.
"Okay, it's almost time for me to go back. The 'new home' has been prepared for you. Here is the key." Qin glanced at his watch, then took out a black card from his pocket and threw it towards Qi Lin.
"New home? What new home?" Qi Lin took the black card and asked with some confusion.
"Although I personally want to see you wandering around the wasteland alone and miserable, after all, you are also a very important part of the plan. If you accidentally burp, the replacement is not that good. Find... In short, Mastermind No. 2 has prepared a temporary foothold for you, and the specific coordinates have been sent to Quake's mailbox."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I've already made plans to travel around the world." Qi Lin immediately checked his mailbox, and sure enough, there was a short anonymous email inside. The content of the email was only accurate to five digits after the decimal point. latitude and longitude coordinates.
This is already a meter-level positioning coordinate. Qi Lin quickly found this place on the electronic map.
This place is 350 kilometers away from his current location. It's neither far nor close. It only takes half a day to feel it at the "cruising speed" of Thor's hammer.
This foothold is located in a remote valley, a suburb of the city, next to a dense forest. Although Qi Lin does not know whether this forest was destroyed during the war or has been transformed into a black forest, since it is the mastermind The starting point of the arrangement, then there should be no problem with security.
"Then, I wish you good luck. I hope I can be alive to see you next time." Qin waved to Qi Lin, turned around and walked towards where he came from.
"I wish you good luck. Don't bump into the Revolutionary Alliance's troops on your way back." After saying that, Qi Lin started running in the direction he chose.
He drew a route on the electronic map. More than half of the route followed an old-era highway, with open wilderness on both sides of the road. Although traveling in this environment could easily expose the target, But it also reduces the possibility of being ambushed - the most critical point is that the vision is extremely good. If a powerful advanced mutant creature or an obstacle that is difficult to deal with such as a black forest or a radiation swamp is discovered, Qi Lin can also attack it in advance Modify the route to detour.
The exchange of fire between the organization and the Revolutionary Federation continued, but as the distance increased, the sound of gunfire and explosions gradually became inaudible.
"I actually broke out..." Although everything was going according to plan, Qi Lin still had an incredible feeling when he thought that he actually walked out of that kind of encirclement unscathed.
The "hijacking" plan was proposed by Qin on his own initiative, and it was Qin who found a way to reveal the information to the Revolutionary Alliance. This time, the people in these organizations can be said to have been tricked by their own "boss"... Although they It is not under Qin's command, but as long as the other eight people have no intention of breaking the oath, then even if they know that this is just a show played by Qin in cooperation with Qi Lin, they must put Qin's personal safety first.
This was a risky move. Of course, this was only for Qi Lin, and Qin didn't seem to worry at all that the other eight people would take the initiative to tear up the oath... Of course, the facts also proved that Qi Lin's worries were completely unnecessary.
After all, in Qin's words, they were old partners who had been together for more than half a century. There was no one in the world who understood them better than him.
…
…
After almost ten hours, Qi Lin finally arrived at the coordinates in the email. What appeared in front of him was a rural villa that looked a little dilapidated on the outside. It covered an area of about two hundred square meters and was three stories high. There was a wooden fence around the villa that had become decayed. .
There was no such thing as a black forest. The dense woods had all died out before they could mutate, leaving only a bare valley and a small number of low shrubs with extremely tenacious vitality.
Although the villa looks like an abandoned old house, it is equipped with a cast iron door that is similar to a vault door. On one side of the door, there is an inconspicuous black card slot.
Qi Lin stepped forward, took out the black card Qin gave him, and inserted it into the card slot by the door.
"Welcome to Base Zero." The voice of Cooper, who is also the mastermind, came from the loudspeaker above his head. Along with the sound of metal gears turning, the cast iron door slowly opened.
"Is that the name of Stronghold Zero?" Qi Lin muttered and quickly walked through the door.
It wasn't until after entering the villa that Qi Lin discovered that this stronghold was not as simple as it looked from the outside - except for the heavy cast iron gate, all the exterior walls of the villa were reinforced with composite armor plates. This kind of thing is generally The one used on the city wall is enough to withstand close direct fire from a 100mm caliber cannon.
It is more appropriate to say it is a villa than a fortress.
Before Qi Lin walked a few steps in, the holographic projector located in the corner of the ceiling went cold, and a holographic projection exactly like Cooper's usual image appeared in the corridor.
"You're nearly half an hour later than I expected."
"Cooper" said without mercy. Qi Lin knew that it was no longer the dedicated AI steward in the 404 base, but the super mastermind who almost controlled the entire wasteland.
"I wasted some time by exploring around the stronghold."
"Are you questioning my ability?" the mastermind asked with some dissatisfaction.
“Some things are more reassuring only after confirming them with your own eyes.”
