Chapter 280: Taking the wrong path
The next day, Cai Jiao and the four of them were in good spirits, while the other side of the special service team was all sluggish, complaining that this place was too cold and there was no way to rest.
"If you want to get some rest, you'd better speed up, or we'll be spending more and more time down there." Meng Jie said coldly. For his own special service team, Meng Jie is really very clear, he has combat effectiveness and willpower, but this body is really lacking.
Everyone was silent, Meng Jie was telling the truth, they had planned to stay here for ten days. But it's only been one day, and everyone can't bear it. So the best thing to do is to speed up so that you can save time and get out of this underground ice layer early.
After everyone confirmed, one by one they regained their combat effectiveness and rushed forward with high morale.
The equipment on Meng Jie's side is much more advanced than Cui Yufeng's, they have completely designed the route, and there are military members to help open the way, they only need to keep moving forward. Obviously, everyone didn't want to stay here for long, and lunch was simply carried out in the middle of the march. In this way, their speed is much faster.
And Cai Jiao, what about them! Although they move fast, they have to rely on themselves, especially setting safety locks and customizing routes, which require them to do it themselves, so it is much slower. By the end of the night, Meng Jie and his team had already discovered the security lock that Cai Jiao had set up before.
"Report, went to find a fixed tow rope." A soldier ran to Meng Jie's side to report.
In the underground ice, everyone deliberately lowered the volume, although they knew that the 10,000-year-old ice would not collapse because of the loud sound, but they all paid special attention, and the soldier who reported also deliberately lowered the volume, but because the place where the team was resting was too quiet, his words were heard clearly by the entire special service team.
In an instant, everyone immediately understood. The Qingcheng faction was ahead of them.
"Captain, we're not resting, let's move on right away!" Members of one of the special teams immediately made a request to leave.
Meng Jie frowned slightly, he was sure that Cai Jiao and the others must be ahead of them, but he didn't expect to be so much ahead.
"Can you tell when that security lock was set?" Meng Jie opened his mouth to ask, the military who went on the mission with them this time were all in the ice and snow environment for a long time, and they were very familiar with them.
"It's probably more than a day, because there is not much change under the ice, so I can't be sure of the details, but according to the setting of the safety lock, it will be at least one day." The soldier replied definitely.
In one day, there is so much difference, how far can they go in a day, especially Cai Jiao's speed.
When the other members heard it for more than a day, they were also a little anxious, and they couldn't let the other party take the lead! The purpose of their coming out this time is for the ice spirit, if they are all collected by the people of the Qingcheng faction, what else will they take!
The members of the "Captain" special service team spoke one after another, looking at Meng Jie.
"What are you worried about? There were only four of them, and they didn't bring anything, how to collect ice essences. Don't forget, the amount of ice essence we have surveyed is not small, how can they all collect it! Wouldn't it be easier for us to let them play the front station? Lin Piaopiao suddenly spoke.
She spoke softly, but this remark quieted everyone. That's right! There were only four of them, and they didn't bring anything, how to collect.
Meng Jie glanced at Lin Piaopiao, he had always known that Piaopiao was smart and would judge the situation, but today he had to get acquainted with it again. She is hostile to Cai Jiao.
This was Meng Jie's first feeling. Meng Jie is not human, and he is used to relying on feelings. Lin Piaopiao is feeling very bad for him now.
"We should speed up, but we don't have to rest, we all have a good rest and leave early tomorrow morning." After Meng Jie gave the order, he followed the soldiers to the entrance of the fault to take a look. Meng Jie's purpose for coming over was very simple, just to see when Cai Jiao and them went down. Meng Jie has no experience and can't look at it, but Meng Jie's nose is easy to use, Cai Jiao's breath is too familiar to him, he walked to the position of the entrance of the fault, and carefully investigated the clues, Meng Jie asked Cai Jiao The smell that Cai Jiao once left behind, it was very light, at least a day and a half.
It seems that it is impossible to catch up with Cai Jiao and them, so they can only speed up as much as possible.
It's just that Meng Jie and they have already designed the best route before they come down, but Cui Yufeng and they are not, they don't have a fault, they have to re-survey and determine the entrance of the fault, so there will be deviations, so although Meng Jie found Cai Jiao's safety rope in the initial place, but now Cai Jiao and they are going farther and farther, and in the end, if they want to find ice spirits, they still have to go to the end point set by Meng Jie.
These Meng Jie and Cai Jiao are not clear to them.
Cai Jiao's foursome had an easy journey, but Meng Jie's special service team worked extremely hard, staying in the underground ice for a long time, which was a huge test for all the members of the special service team.
Although Cai Jiao and the others were relaxed, they obviously deviated from their destination, and now they were going farther and farther, until they were about to go down to the last floor, and Cui Yufeng found this problem.
"Huh! We seem to have walked the wrong way! Cui Yufeng found out about this problem when he checked Meng Jie's location at dinner.
"What do you mean! Hey! They're so slow, it's been two days! It seems to be farther away from us. Cai Jiao came over with the Wukong probe and took a closer look.
"It's not that they're slow, it's that we're on the wrong track." Pei Zhen also glanced at it and instantly understood.
"Ahh What do you mean, are they on the right track? But it's all about going down to the ice! Cai Jiao frowned, she didn't mind too much if she had taken the wrong road, but she wanted to know who was right.
"They must have a special device to predict the location of the Ice Spirit, didn't you find it? They were going down almost straight, even if they had deviated from the location in search of the fault, and then they tried to detour as much as possible, they wanted to go straight down. You see, so I'm guessing that the place that breeds ice spirits should be in this range. Cui Yufeng stretched out his finger and nodded on the tablet. Cai Jiao immediately understood, sure enough, that place was the closest to Meng Jie's special service team in a straight line, and they might have been going to this target point, so they had been adjusting their routes, instead of going down like Cai Jiao and them, finding a fault.
"Then we're going to head over there now, and we don't know if we'll be able to get there directly!" Cai Jiao frowned, they really took the wrong road, and what they hoped most was to go directly to that place, otherwise they would have to find a fault to go up, and then go down, which would delay time. They were supposed to be faster than the secret service team, but if they arrived late, the people over there would have laughed at them again. (To be continued.) )
