Half a day had passed, and the sun had risen overhead. Finally, the whole team had crossed the barren land and came to the vicinity of the vast base of the Holy River.

In the desert wind and sand, the Great Wall is on the edge of rain and snow. Although it is not as beautiful as the verse describes, it is not far off. The boss of the mercenaries was very kind to them, and he didn't let them live in mud houses.

The entire base is the color of yellow sand, and it happens to be located on the banks of the Holy River, and opposite this is a prisoner camp for mercenaries. The captives were forced to work and rest for long periods of time in the humble conditions there. The entire base is designed with an air of contempt from the inside out, arrogantly proclaiming the iron blood and debauchery of the mercenaries. Joellan's eyes flashed: This design is really familiar the more I look at it, it looks like a person I know, but who is it? Qiao Erlan couldn't think of it for the time being.

Lu Jianian blocked the scorching sun all the way, so that Qiao Erlan would not be so sunburned.

About a kilometer away from the base of the Holy River, more than a dozen people hid in the sand dunes stacked by the wind and sand, and they all showed their round heads.

Among them are Lu Jianian in a white shirt and Qiao Erlan, who is petite and quiet.

This is a blind spot that Lu Jiannian has calculated a long time ago that the defense system of the Holy River Base cannot detect. Of course, there are only a dozen or so people here who look at the construction of the majestic Holy River base from here. The target is too large and easy for the human eye to spot. There are no robots in mercenaries, which is why many humans don't hate mercenaries. Compared with their atrocities, the Empire's long-standing oppression is even more unbearable.

The Jiulandis system is a very strange galaxy. The public is not very respectful of the government, but it is not that they are not taken seriously. It seems to be more like whoever is stronger will listen to whomever is stronger. The ambiguous attitude of many people towards mercenaries has made their power more and more powerful.

There are a lot of captives from various planets in it. They were either newly captured, or they already knew that resistance would not work and accepted the facts. They know: every five years mercenaries release a group of people. But if someone is willing to come to their rescue, they will also be grateful. And this is an opportunity for many people to make a name for themselves. Constance is the best example of this. He was also a captive captured by mercenaries, but was promoted to be the leader because he managed to free a group of people. Although he doesn't have many subordinates, he is still a bit of a charlatan.

As a leader of the exiles, although he is not the most powerful, he is also quite deep in the city. He has always wanted to strengthen his power and become a hegemon. And freeing those captives and making them your own subordinates is the best and least costly way to do it. After all, with people, there will be everything. Cons often comforts himself in this way.

It's a pity that if he meets someone else, he may still be successful, but with Lu Jiannian here, his ambition is a bit hanging.

Qiao Erlan had already discussed with Lu Jiannian, first use the power of Cons to get these poor captives out, and after further gaining Cons's trust, be sure to figure out the familiarity that Lu Jianian sensed.

And Kong Si knew that he still thought that Lu Jianian was just a vain person. Because he vaguely knew that between the two, it was Qiao Erlan who was making the decision. Constance was ashamed of this. What do men do with a woman on the side?

Lu Jianian is by no means a person who has achieved great things. Constance came to a conclusion.

When he came, Qiao Erlan told Lu Jiannian to be with Cons as much as possible when he waited, and only by getting close to him could he have a chance to figure out about this matter. Can't get hurt, can't show any flaws, he's a robot or a little less human until better. Lu Jianian was not impatient and agreed one by one. His heart overflowed with a little strangeness.

"How?" Since Lu Jiannian joined the team, Constance has asked Lu Jiannian every time he asks for advice. Although the people next to him didn't say anything, they didn't like Lu Jianian a little. thinks he's too much of a showrunner.

And Kong Si just wants them to isolate Lu Jiannian and the two like this. Qiao Erlan's eyes flashed, she understood Conse's scruples, and always felt that Conse's behavior was a little petty. But the face is also calm and indifferent, and it is enough to have a brother in everything.

Lu Jianian has always disliked to explain too much, so he didn't explain too much, and described it straightforwardly: "Last night's plan can be done." ”

The strategy Lu Jianian said was actually thought up by Qiao Erlan. Although Lu Jianian has a high IQ, he doesn't want such a thing to hurt his mind. He has always pursued the use of force to solve the problem, and if he can not use his brain, he will not use his brain. It was Joellan's eagerness to try. Yesterday, Qiao Erlan said a plan, and Lu Jianian relayed it to Kong Si as it was.

Cons recalled what Lu Jiannian said last night. It's a clever idea.

Joellan saw him and nodded, agreeing. He symbolically asked for other opinions, and there was no surprise that all but Ye Wei were all voted. Qiao Erlan looked at Ye Wei with an awkward face, and really felt that he was a little cute. Compared with the cunning and foxy Cons, he has a bit of a true temperament.

The decision has been made, and it is waiting to be implemented.

In fact, the solution that Qiao Erlan thought of was very simple, that is, the art of war often said that the sound of the east and the west attacked. It's just a little different. Cons first sent a few men to the other side of the river bank to destroy the facilities on the camp side of the prisoners, and then took the opportunity to kill the mercenaries as they crossed the river. The Techno-Emperor Lu Carnival and Cons take Joellan to their central hub. Needless to say, the rest is known. It doesn't matter if a plan is clever or not, it's whether it works together perfectly at the right time.

And Lu Jianian obviously cooperated perfectly.

The three of them didn't take many detours to reach the central hub room.

The central hub is not very large, but it is full of sophisticated instruments. The room was filled with a silver-gray sheen reflecting a cool glow.

Lu Jianian walked in, leaving Qiao Erlan and Kong Si outside to control the wind. The reason why Qiao Erlan will stay together is because Kong Si has never believed in Lu Jianian very much. He's a spy, but he's really a spy, that's bad. Leaving Joellan here, he himself still has a hostage bargaining chip.

The two looked at each other, and Joellan nodded.

Lu Jianian glanced around uncomfortably and told her, "Be careful, I'll be back soon." ”

As soon as Lu Jiannian closed the door, Qiao Erlan heard Kang Si laughing.

"The relationship between Miss Lu and Mr. Lu is real and good." As if emotional, he looked up at the white sky. Because she used to take Lu Jiannian's surname, Qiao Erlan was also called "Miss Lu".

"Our brother and sister have been dependent on each other since childhood." Joel Lan said without a red heart and a heartbeat. God knows they didn't know each other for two months.

"Are we each other's only relatives?" Conse smiled meaningfully.
