Compared to breaking the high-strength plastic, the SWAT soldier's unconsciousness did not surprise Colonel Lake. How could a SWAT soldier resist a young man with such explosive power? In all his life, Colonel Lake had only seen it a handful of times.
When he thought of this, Colonel Lake became even more curious and murderous toward the mechanic, Yu Feng — the disgrace of the army. The young man was already so strong, so how strong would the mechanic be? However, he did not waver in the slightest. Just like Xu Le's belief, Colonel Lake did not care about the strength of the target. He believed that no matter how strong the target was, they would still be vulnerable in the face of the powerful weapons of the Federal military.
Throwing his sunglasses to the ground, the colonel walked to the front of the command light screen of the temporary camp and silently watched the flashing green dots on the light screen. There were also two completely different color areas. The red and blue areas represented the possible hiding places of Target 12. However, due to the time delay in locating the target, it could only gradually spread out.
As the command signals from the capital ring continued to be transmitted back, the red and blue areas on the light screen gradually shrank. Colonel Lake coldly watched this silent but thrilling process, waiting for the moment when the two areas on the light screen finally converged into a fixed point.
Four minutes and twelve seconds? Colonel Lake's pupils suddenly shrank. He knew that he had made an extremely stupid mistake. The identification and location between the Eastwood region and the capital ring was a back-and-forth process. If he wanted to locate Target 1 or Target 2 … it would actually take more than eight minutes!
His face was extremely gloomy, but he did not say anything to his subordinates. He just felt extremely embarrassed. He thought of the mistake the 4th Military Region made when they first came to the Eastwood region countless years ago. That mistake caused the 4th Military Region to be directly transferred from Eastwood to that primitive and backward place in the West Woods. Today, he made another mistake. Did this represent some kind of ominous sign?
If there were military staff or intelligence personnel around, this kind of stupid mistake would naturally not be made. However, the problem was that Colonel Lake was a frontline combatant. In order to maintain the confidentiality of this operation, he did not follow the procedures to organize the staff headquarters.
"I have to hurry." Colonel Lake stared at the two color areas on the screen that were gradually approaching each other. He thought that as long as the deepest part of the two color areas overlapped, it would roughly be the rendezvous point of Targets 1 and 2.
"Inform me as soon as you locate him … Everyone, prepare to move out." Colonel Lake handed over the work of setting up the temporary camp to the Donglin garrison troops. He notified the team members hidden in the city through the shoulder communicator. He then sat on the armored military vehicle and headed toward the depths of Hexi State City under the twilight.

Xu Le scrambled down from the cart. He didn't notice the knee-deep black water in the tunnel. He found the steel ladder and desperately climbed up. He had to save all the time he had. When he reached the top, he smashed the lid open and climbed out. He skillfully raised his elbow and pushed the extremely thick electric switch up. A burst of bright light illuminated the entire room.
It was the operation room of the mine where the teenager had stayed for four years. He opened the dust-proof door of the room, passed through, and came to the living room. He then saw a familiar person leaning on the sofa in a familiar posture.
The repair shop owner, Feng Yu, seemed to have no bones. He lazily sunk into the soft sofa. The pure silver lighter in his hand had just been extinguished. The smell of kerosene seemed to be floating in the air. The cigarette in his dry lips had just been lit. The butt was bright red, but he didn't have time to release the smoke.
A fugitive traitor greeted his closest employee and apprentice in this city in such a posture. Amidst the absurdity, there was a comforting sense of stability.
Xu Le, whose face was covered in sweat and blood, stared at him in a daze. Looking at the miserable wound on his thigh, he didn't wait for his breath to calm down. He opened his mouth and asked, "How much time do we have?"
Feng Yu raised his eyelids a little weakly. He glanced at the little guy who had accompanied him for four years. He smiled slightly and said, "It takes at least eight minutes and twenty-four seconds for the electronic surveillance to track the location of the chip and send it back to the Bureau of Proclamation on the capital planet. After that, it will be accurately located and sent back to the execution team here. You came here by the mine cart. The speed is not bad, but the positioning system has been following you. In about six minutes, it will be able to find your trace through the sewer pipe. Calculating this, you have about three minutes to talk to me. "
"I didn't expect you to be able to escape." Feng Yu's somewhat pale face was full of pride. "It seems that the trash of the Department of Defense can't compare to the things that I casually taught … I just didn't expect you to actually dare to escape and be willing to come to me."
The two of them knew very well that Xu Le dared to escape from the control of the military, which was equivalent to putting himself on the opposite side of the Federation. For this, he would have to pay an extremely heavy price. However, Feng Yu's face still didn't show any signs of being moved. There was only calmness.
"Three minutes can't be used to chat. After all, I'm not ready to hear your last words." Xu Le lowered his body and dug out a few green military weight belts from under the sofa. He was ready to tie Feng Yu up. "I'll carry you and run."
Feng Yu clearly had no interest in being a dumpling. He gently patted Xu Le's hand. A trace of guilt flashed through his eyes. He said, "You can't escape. I originally thought that if you didn't come, you would at most be detained for a few days. After all, the Federation government is not the barbarians of the Empire. They can't do everything so barbarically."
"I know you can block the electronic surveillance." Xu Le looked at his boss's face with some unwillingness and even anger. He said, "I haven't even tried. How do you know I can't escape?"
"Because I've been escaping for more than ten years." Feng Yu coughed twice. He smiled and took out a small tool from his bosom. He stuffed it into Xu Le's jacket pocket and said, "That thing you're talking about can only maintain the blocking ability for half an hour. It can't be used forever. What happens after half an hour? Hexi Province is only so big. Instead of running in vain, it's better to spend these few minutes properly. "
Xu Le's hand that was holding the military weight belt stiffened in midair. He looked at Feng Yu's haggard face and said through clenched teeth, "You can hide from the First Charter for more than ten years. Why can't you continue to hide?"
Feng Yu didn't answer this most important question. He looked at the youth with a faint smile and asked, "With your personality, it seems that you forgot to ask me something."
Xu Le lowered his head and asked, "What was the explosion on the battlefield all those years ago? Are you really a spy for the Empire? "
His question was very direct. Feng Yu's answer was also very direct. The uncle blew out a smoke ring and said lazily, "Of course not."
