[Reconnaissance I] completed. You have received 3,000 experience points.]
Han Xiao was awakened by the notification on the interface. He looked out of the window. It was dawn, and the sky was starting to brighten. Blue and gray mixed together.
Han Xiao had only slept for two hours the previous night to build the new machine. He took out a bottle of water and wet his face. The refreshing feeling woke him up. He walked out of the cargo compartment and entered the base.
Lin Yao had been working all night. Qi Bai Jia was taking a nap on the sofa next to Lin Yao. He had also woken up.
"What did you get last night?" Han Xiao asked.
Lin Yao said weakly, "That bald man told us about his accomplices hiding in Crow Forest Town. We captured a group of criminals and found out the exact location of the Dark Crow Valley base. However, they were all peripheral members and did not know much about the base. That's all we got."
Han Xiao nodded. This was within his expectations. Otherwise, [Reconnaissance II] would have been completed.
"Are they still in hiding?"
"Yes. They are on standby in Crow Forest Town."
"There is no more value there. We can retreat now," Han Xiao said.
Qi Bai Jia, who was eating military rations for breakfast, rolled his eyes and said, "Have you forgotten that I am the commander?"
Han Xiao was surprised. "Aren't you supposed to be our scapegoat?"
Qi Bai Jia choked on his rations and coughed. He was speechless. Just as he was about to retort, Ye Fan walked over.
"Everyone from Division 13, our men have obtained the exact location of the Dark Crow Valley base. The mission is complete."
Qi Bai Jia was shocked. It had not even been a day, and the Hesla agents had already completed the mission. Their efficiency was amazing!
"Did you really obtain all the information about the Dark Crow Valley base?"
Ye Fan nodded. "Winna and her men even captured a witness. Our mission is complete. Withdraw your men. Let's sort out the information together and send it to the army."
Han Xiao frowned. The interface did not show that [Reconnaissance II] was completed. He asked, "Are you sure that the information is true? Can you tell us the details of the mission? "
"Of course." Ye Fan briefly explained the operation of Winna and her men.
Han Xiao pondered and said, "Don't you think it went too smoothly?"
"Yes, but there was nothing suspicious. It could only mean that the enemy's vigilance was too low. Don't forget that we launched a surprise attack on them."
"I don't think so.
"Being suspicious is a good thing, but being suspicious without evidence is overkill." Ye Fan frowned and said decisively, "Anyway, we'll prepare to leave tomorrow morning. We'll move together."
Looking at Ye Fan's back, Han Xiao's face darkened. He was one hundred percent sure that there was something fishy about the information Ye Fan had obtained.
However, he recalled Ye Fan's description of the operation. Winna and the other agents were only a little too aggressive, but they did not make many mistakes. There was only one possibility. There was something else going on in the Dark Crow Valley base.
Han Xiao did not have any evidence. Even if he voiced his suspicions, others would not believe him, just like Ye Fan.
Conjecture could not be trusted.
"Looks like I have to check it out myself."
In the morning, Di Su Su and Winna returned to the base together. Both sides had brought back captives as witnesses. Roman was a cadre officer. He was more valuable than Di Su Su's captives.
Winna had a victorious smile on her face. In her eyes, this mission was a competition between the agents of both sides. Hesla had defeated Division 13 perfectly.
The agents of Division 13 were enraged by the victorious attitude of the Hesla agents. Li Ya Lin said indignantly, "If we had changed the mission, you would have lost."
Winna sneered. "The result has been decided. A loss is a loss. A win is a win."
Han Xiao walked over and said, "Your information might be fake."
Regardless of whether they believed it or not, he still had to remind them.
Winna's expression changed. She asked Han Xiao, "What evidence do you have?"
"Intuition."
It was indeed an omnipotent reason. Everyone looked as if they had eaten a pound of sh * t.
Winna was so angry that she laughed. "Then shut up. What's the weight of your speculation?"
Han Xiao was not angry. Instead, he asked, "Do you have any evidence?"
Winna patted Roman, who was trembling like a quail, and said, "This is my evidence."
Han Xiao squatted down and looked at Roman carefully. Suddenly, he nodded, stood up, and walked away.
Winna thought that he had given in and was elated.
…
"It seems that there is a powerful agent in the Dark Crow Valley base."
Han Xiao's expression was solemn. Roman's fear and will to live did not seem to be fake. This meant that he was not a loyalist who had purposely provided false information. Therefore, there was only one logical conclusion. The Dark Crow Valley base had not revealed the real information to these low-ranking officers. The sentries patrolling the perimeter were not only sentries but also bait!
The information that Ye Fan had hacked could have been manipulated!
To find out the truth, he had to infiltrate the Dark Crow Valley base personally.
A plan formed in Han Xiao's mind. However, he had to wait until nightfall.
Everyone was interrogating the captives and sorting out the information. They would only leave the next morning. He still had one night.
…
The moon was bright and the stars were few.
Han Xiao said to his colleagues, "I am going to stay in the car for a while."
No one replied to him. Hesla did not bother to reply, and Division 13 did not bother to reply. Only Zhang Wei said helplessly, "Go ahead if you want to. No one is stopping you."
Han Xiao nodded and walked out of the base. He returned to the cargo compartment and carried Lambert's anti-materiel rifle and all the necessary equipment. He then locked the door of the cargo compartment and looked around to make sure that no one was outside the base. He turned around and walked into the forest, disappearing into the darkness.
He did not intend to inform his teammates. Qi Bai Jia would definitely not agree. It would only cause trouble for him.
After trekking for almost half the night, Han Xiao finally arrived at his target location.
He equipped himself with thermal imaging night vision goggles and an environmental protection suit. After confirming that there were no enemies around, he quietly dug a hole that could fit a person.
After digging the hole, Han Xiao took out four mechanical spiders from his toolbox, placed them on the ground, and activated them. The mechanical spiders stood up and stood in front of Han Xiao, like a team of small scouts waiting to be dispatched.
Small Arthropod Detector (Spider): Small Insect-Like Detector.
This was a new blueprint that Han Xiao had created. It was a practical tool that could be used as a pair of eyes and ears. It was small in size, very secretive, and could be controlled remotely. It was equipped with a heat sensor that would automatically avoid heat sources and life forms when it was not controlled. It could be described as a walking surveillance camera. With the Spider Detector, he did not need to get close to the hidden sentries, which reduced the chances of being discovered.
Han Xiao took out his tablet and compared the images of the four Spider Detectors. It did not take long for him to determine the location of a few hidden sentries. Most of them were hidden near the trees. He quickly outlined the distribution of the hidden sentries in his mind and planned out the most suitable assassination route.
In the dark forest, Han Xiao crept forward with his heavy sniper rifle, keeping his target within his shooting range.
Lambert's heavy sniper rifle was equipped with a silencer, so the sound it made was only as loud as a finger hitting wood. In this quiet and dark forest, even an elite agent within a hundred meters would be able to notice this small movement. However, Lambert's heavy sniper rifle had a range of eight hundred meters. This was also the reason why Han Xiao had decided to use this weapon. Compared to taking out the hidden sentries one by one, long-range sniping was much safer and more convenient. It was worth it for him to activate the [Sniping] branch.
Han Xiao held his breath and focused. He put the target into the scope, and the distance of a few hundred meters did not seem to exist in his eyes. The feeling of being able to shoot with ease surfaced in his heart.
Crosshair, head!
Wind direction, eight o 'clock!
Wind speed, 1.3. Deviation, 43mm!
Elevation angle, advance angle. Calibration completed.
Han Xiao suddenly pulled the trigger. The recoil from the rifle caused his body to tremble slightly. He used his great strength to control the sniper rifle without the slightest deviation.
