The Limestone Water Village Hotel was not a standalone building. Even though it was 454 meters tall and had 108 floors, it could only exist as a secondary building to the entire Cloud City Water Village complex. Moreover, it was the one with the lowest height.
There were a total of six buildings similar to the Limestone Water Village Hotel. They were distributed in a ring shape, rising one after the other. They surrounded the 1179 meter tall main building of Cloud City, forming what could be called a first-rate complex of buildings in the entire world.
Luo Nan saw a structural map that included the entirety of the Limestone Water Village Hotel as well as a few passageways that led to the low-level business center.
The meshed perspective map looked like a beehive, but it was a thousand times more complex. The blue triangular flags representing the Wilderness Explorers Society were scattered within. It was as if they were rushing through a maze.
Luo Nan blurted out when he saw this scene: "There are too few people."
The 108 floor Limestone Water Village Hotel was the most affordable and friendly building within the Cloud City Water Village complex. Naturally, its popularity was high. It was the weekend, and it was the peak of the night. There were at least a dozen banquets lined up. Adding in the tourists and travelers, twenty to thirty thousand people wasn't too much.
However, there were no more than fifteen Aptitude Users scattered on each floor. On average, one person had to take care of seven or eight floors. In reality, there were a few groups of people, including the two of them in the elevator right now … … In terms of coverage, it was simply riddled with holes.
Luo Nan had always heard about operations and whatnot. He thought that the Society would be mobilizing in large numbers in order to hunt and kill the Human-Faced Arachnid, laying down an inescapable net. But when he saw this scene, he felt a bit embarrassed.
At this time, he remembered a small detail. "I remember you brought four people with you, Sister He?"
Luo Nan was too embarrassed to call her Secretary He, so he learned from Chen Weican.
"That's the one with the four of them together."
"......" Luo Nan was already completely convinced. Wasn't chasing after the Human-Faced Arachnid like finding a needle in a haystack with this kind of configuration?
He Yueyin suddenly asked him at this time: "Can we switch to conference mode?"
Luo Nan believed that she had other plans, so he naturally had no reason to refuse.
Soon, a notification flashed on his retina interface. The wartime encrypted communications had entered conference mode. A row of avatars appeared on the interface. All fifteen members of the association in the Limestone Water Village Pub were online. Zhang Yingying's squirrel was among them.
But contrary to his expectations, He Yueyin's following words were clearly a response to his question. "The number of people isn't a crucial factor. After all, the hidden resources under the control of the Society are quite considerable. Moreover, three to five Awakened working together is more than enough to surround and kill a Human-Faced Arachnid clone if the allocation is proper. "
He Yueyin naturally had the qualifications to speak these words as the powerful person who had directly repelled the Human-Faced Arachnid. Luo Nan didn't have any objections, but he didn't say it in the private channel. He would only say it in public. Sister He, what in the world were you thinking?
He Yueyin's voice was piercingly cold and solemn. She didn't seem to have any intention of stopping. "Since there are so few people, it's impossible to form a complete coverage. There's no need to spread out, especially when the command and deployment is far from reaching a level of finesse."
… This was firing cannons!
Luo Nan was stunned speechless when another voice jumped out from the HexaEar as expected. "Oh oh oh. People from the military are different. Then how do we command and how do we deploy? Secretary He, give us a proper explanation!"
Impatience seeped through the oily tone. A flashing notification appeared in the corner of the retina interface. The number was 3393. The avatar was an ugly black beetle. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Say △ Net
】
He Yueyin didn't follow the rhythm of the black beetle. She just adjusted the building's structure diagram and opened up a split-screen interface in the lower right corner. It displayed a surveillance image of the hotel's interior.
Luo Nan noticed that most of the faces on the screen were students. Looking at the scale and shape, it was the scene of the Mutual Assistance Cold Dinner Party that he had yet to enter.
He Yueyin quickly made a mark on the screen. One was located at the edge of the surveillance area. They were talking to a man and a woman … … Xue Lei and Chen Xiaolin. The other was standing parallel to them. The black-suited male was getting closer and closer.
Clearly, this was the image from before the incident.
Luo Nan could see that Xue Lei and Chen Xiaolin had quarreled. They probably had misgivings about being in a public place. After quarreling for a few sentences, they left. They probably wanted to find a quiet place to talk.
The black-suited male followed behind them the entire time.
Then the surveillance image switched to the elevator entrance. Luo Nan, who was drawing with his head lowered, entered the frame. Of course, there was also Zhang Yingying, who was watching from the side.
"Please pay attention to everyone's position at this moment."
He Yueyin's piercingly cold voice rang out: "According to Zhang Yingying's description and the display of the war chess mode, Mr. Luo discovered the abnormality on his friend's body at this moment. He gave a warning and was ambushed by the Black Wolf behind him … …"
"Black Wolf?"
Luo Nan's gaze turned to the black-suited male on the ground. So this person had a code name? Speaking of which, this person was much more miserable than Xue Lei. He Yueyin's attack just now had directly smashed his spine. Luo Nan didn't know if he could be saved.
But He Yueyin's explanation immediately stunned Luo Nan.
"Black Wolf is a registered member of the Society. He is also a member of this search and capture operation. However, right now he is already a slave of the Human-Faced Arachnid. "
He Yueyin's tone was tranquil. She didn't have any other emotions because of the change in her companion's position. But the conference channel was a sheet of silence. Clearly, this fact made the others rather embarrassed.
He Yueyin's analysis continued at this time: "We haven't found the scene of Black Wolf being infected. But according to the time of the last call, it was approximately twenty minutes ago. Then, the infected Black Wolf approached the next target.
"From the state of his target, we have reason to believe that he has already used his methods. He has been tailing them all the way, waiting for an opportunity to reap the fruits of battle. The Human-Faced Arachnid's methods are crude and intense. There is practically no buffer time in between. And right now, we still don't know anything. "
Only He Yueyin's voice remained in the conference channel for the time being:
"Only when Mr. Luo captured the traces of the Human-Faced Arachnid and issued a warning to his friend did we begin to move. The first wave was Zhang Yingying, who was by Mr. Luo's side … … "
The elevator just happened to arrive at the 81st floor with a ding. There were no disturbances in between. Presumably, it was the result of special control.
Luo Nan was startled when the elevator door opened. On the opposite wall was a beautiful woman with drooping shoulders against the wall. Wasn't that Zhang Yingying?
This young woman, who had always radiated with vitality, was clearly receiving information from the conference channel. She had a premonition of the unpleasant evaluation that would follow. She raised her hand weakly:
"Hi. I'm here."
