The sun had already set in the west, and the thin air was slightly cold, but Xu Le always felt that the air in front of him was so hot. Every time he breathed, his lips would burn, and his lungs would hurt.
He ran madly through the mountains on the other side, a pained expression flashing across his dusty face from time to time. From afar, he saw a marker on the ground that he remembered in his mind. He saw a few solitary conifers standing there and quickly ran over.
Under the pine trees was a pile of fallen leaves, rotten fruit, and rotten matter that had accumulated for countless years. It was very soft. He sat down and slowly calmed his breathing with difficulty. He let the maddening soreness in his body gradually dissipate. At the same time, he confirmed that this was the place he had been searching for through the GPS system on his wristwatch.
The valley was dark, and only the branches and leaves at the top of the trees could occasionally reflect a few rays of golden light in the distance. He did not rest at all. He pulled out the military knife from his waist and narrowed his eyes to stare at the weak electronic signal on his wristwatch.
He wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve. His dark face showed the pale color of exhaustion. He still had the dry and ugly cigarette between his lips. His dry lips had already cracked, and the blood oozing out mixed with dust was smeared on the filter. He looked very pathetic.
He had never run so recklessly before.
This race against time in the Rocky Mountains had drained all of his spirit and strength. What was even more frightening was that the Imperial expeditionary force that was originally suppressed by the Federation to the east suddenly mobilized countless troops and searched everywhere in the mountains like crazy.
They knew that the Federation was preparing for a big move, but they could not find a clue. They knew that the noose that was the Charter Network was slowly falling, but they did not know the location of the gallows. The commander and soldiers of the Imperial invaders had already gone crazy. They were like poor women who could not find the ghost in the house and could only hear the ghost howling. They nervously held the scissors and waved wildly in the air, but they could only hit the air …
The Imperium had sent out the few remaining reconnaissance aircraft, and the last of the electronic surveillance troops were scattered in the mountain range that pierced through the planet. The final struggle of a dying man was incomparably ferocious. It was this kind of all-out, all-out search that made it impossible for the Federation to send out troops to repair the base point again.
Xu Le, who was like a silent beast walking in the mountains, was a much smaller target, but he still encountered four waves of Imperial troops in a row.
The Bureau of Proclamation's stupid mistake needed the frontline soldiers to make up for it. If it failed, the Federation's countless days of preparation would be forced to postpone the general attack. Who could bear this responsibility? The problem was that the mission to make up for this mistake was really a damn mission.
Xu Le should have died today.
If it wasn't for the strange and powerful power in his body, he definitely wouldn't have been able to make it to these pine trees alive. In fact, the fact that he was able to make it here alive was mostly due to his luck. The bullet-proof vest that was already riddled with holes, and the infantry helmet that was directly thrown into the valley after being shot into pieces, proved this point.
.
.
In the darkness, Xu Le squinted his eyes, which were unusually bright. He didn't have the time to feel the danger and fear of the previous journey. He quickly used his military knife to push away the decaying leaves and entered the control code on the high-strength alloy panel. The physical cover of this base should be the work of another team. Although they were very experienced, they couldn't hide it from his eyes. He even found the target one step earlier than the wristwatch.
Taking out all kinds of tools from his military backpack, Xu Le took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He began to operate the complex components that he had never seen before.
The satellite phone's light screen flipped through pages of top-secret blueprints at a constant speed. Xu Le quietly and quickly followed the blueprints. The mechanical engineering genius that he had shown when he was young, and the skills that Feng Yu had taught him were fully displayed at this moment. The repair tools that seemed more complex than the underground components were as obedient as chopsticks in his hands. The low hum of the motor could be heard from time to time in the quiet forest.
With a light click, the core section of the base equipment surrounded by fallen leaves opened. Xu Le looked at the exposed chip circuits in front of him. He looked at the extremely thin channels that glowed with a faint metallic light. He subconsciously put down the tools and touched the bracelet on his left hand that he was so familiar with that he had almost forgotten it.
He carefully looked at the level two verification chip in the middle of the system. He took out a connector and carefully connected it. He was very clear about the importance of this chip. Although it was far inferior to the chip that he had planned to steal from the Empire, if it was burned by the current, even if he possessed the uncle's soul and his genius brain, there was no way he could fix it in a short time.
The other side of the connector was connected to the satellite phone by a data cable. Xu Le looked at his watch and waited for the number to jump to a certain predetermined number. Without hesitation, he pressed the phone button and said, "Begin data transmission."
In order to prevent the Empire's electronic control forces from monitoring abnormal signals and to ensure the safety of this base point, he only opened communication with the spaceship Bureau of Proclamation team once every five minutes, and the duration of each communication was strictly controlled within one minute.
The data reception progress bar on the screen slowly moved to the right. It did not take long for it to reach one-third. Xu Le closed his eyes and felt a trace of fatigue and relaxation. After experiencing the battle at the riverbank, the death of his comrades, and running for his life in the forest, he thought that he had enough patience to wait for some things to happen. And from the looks of it, the error in this base point's core was not serious, and the data used to cover it was not large.
The communication channel closed and opened again. Twenty-one minutes later, all the data was sent. Next was the technical operation manual. However, Xu Le's pupils suddenly shrank because he realized that the transmission speed of the last document was extremely slow.
"What's going on? Why is it so slow? "he asked in a low voice.
There was a slight noise in the phone. A slightly panicked female voice replied, "Be patient. It should be … in time."
"It's just the operation manual. Why is it so slow? Are you stupid enough to package all the documents and send them over? Hurry up and split them! "Xu Le said angrily.
The deputy director of the Bureau of Proclamation who was far away in the spaceship became angry. She said coldly, "This is a level one document. The network control is only a temporary part of the authorization. We don't have the authorization, so we can't even look at it. Of course, we can't split it."
"Idiot!"
Xu Le did not have time to curse because the two minutes were up. The satellite phone fell into silence, and the progress bar that only moved a little bit froze at the front.
He stared at the progress bar, and after a little calculation, he knew how long it would take to finish the transmission of the damn technical manual and complete this damn mission. A cold emotion occupied his heart. Group 7 had sacrificed so much. If they still failed, he would not be able to forgive himself.
This kind of depressed emotion made him have the urge to smash the satellite phone on the tree. But in the end, he did not do anything. He just silently fell into deep thought.
At this time, an ominous sound faintly came from the forest in the distance. He suddenly got up, put on the night vision goggles and looked into the distance. He vaguely saw a group of imperial soldiers.
At the same time, he heard a series of chattering sounds. This group of imperial soldiers did not seem to be afraid of exposing their tracks. They were very arrogant, but in fact, it was a kind of last madness before despair.
He did not understand the imperial language, but he knew that the countless ant troops that the imperial people desperately scattered in the mountains were really effective. What was even more troublesome was that the time of the Federation's attack was approaching step by step.
"If only the old thing was here." Xu Le once again lay back on the ground. Like a biologist observing the daily life of a cave animal, he stared at the motionless progress bar and thought in his heart. It was a pity that the charter network on this fallen star had not been activated yet. Even the lowest level of the monitoring network did not exist.
At this time, even if there was an electronic wall that surrounded the bison in the East Forest Region, Xu Le believed that he could still contact the omnipotent central computer. Thinking of this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across his tired face. With a whoosh, he took out the spare Serene Farmer Energy Bar from his backpack and connected it to the satellite phone.
It took more than ten seconds to open the back of the phone. With a few simple wires, Xu Le forcibly increased the power of the satellite phone. The message segment forcibly passed through the thick atmosphere and came to the space battleship in space. It opened the channel in reverse and began to contact.
At this time, there were still more than three minutes before the agreed five-minute signal annihilation period. On the other side of the phone came the screams of the people on the battleship, and the annoying female official nervously and angrily rebuked, "You will expose your position! I order you to close the channel immediately. "
Even if Xu Le actively closed the channel, the command ship in space could forcibly close the channel. He stared at the phone and said in a calm voice that made people's hearts palpitate, "Keep the channel open. If you close it, I will give up this mission."
The other side of the phone fell into silence.
The progress bar on the satellite phone slowly increased, but Xu Le did not care about this at all. He stared at the phone and silently shouted in his heart, "Old thing, find me!"
After about a moment, like a star blinking, a white light dot appeared in the vision of his left eye.
"Here."
It seemed that in the military satellite phone, there was indeed a verification chip that could monitor the chip of a human. Xu Le knew that he had won half the bet. He forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart and quickly said in his mind, "The problem with the network base points, you check it yourself and then give me the technical manual. Use the fastest way."
The Federal Central Computer quickly showed a line of words in his left eye, "This is a top-secret document with level one clearance. You know, I am just a poor computer. Without the authorization of a human, I can't take the initiative to do anything."
"You said that I have level one clearance. I will authorize you."
"Hmm … this seems to work, but the problem is that we haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't you want to talk first?"
"Get lost."
Xu Le gave a concise and powerful reply with a hint of Zou Yu's unique charm.
In the time it took for a simple conversation, the central computer had completed the work that countless humans could not complete after years of work. It found the reason, intercepted the most concise and correct relevant technical specifications, and transmitted them to the planet's surface through the battleship.
The drawing paper and the operation flow were quickly transmitted to the chip behind Xu Le's neck through the verification chip in the satellite computer, and then into his brain.
