Chapter 312, Hints of Diamonds

Soon after entering the jungle, Lu Pingchuan divided the search team into three groups - He Tao manipulated the dogs, wolves and beasts to walk in the front to explore the way, Lu Pingchuan took Fang Zhijian to walk in the right rear, and Xu Jiangong and Ding Tao followed on the left. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe three squads vaguely form an irregular triangle to move forward, which can further expand the local search area and effectively prevent being surrounded by enemy ambushes.

As time passed, the group got closer and closer to the coordinate point where Jiang Lan disappeared, and at the same time, the night in the forest became deeper and deeper. With only four team members, he hurriedly left the position and went to the incident area to find out, Lu Pingchuan was not without apprehension and regret in his heart at the moment, but on the one hand, he really couldn't allocate more manpower, and on the other hand, whether it was psychological or situational, finding out the reason for Jiang Lan's disappearance was very important to them now.

In order to prevent an ambush as much as possible, the speed of the team's advance was not fast, so after walking for most of the night, the five of them gradually approached the coordinate location where Jiang Lan finally disappeared. This is a woodland with relatively sparse vegetation, and it is not suitable for ambushes. The doubts in Lu Pingchuan's heart were even stronger, and he made a gesture at the moment, asking the four people accompanying him to hide on the spot, and only sent dogs, wolves, and beasts to the scene of the incident to investigate.

In the jungle where you can't see your fingers, the bits of blue light emitted by the canine wolf beast soldiers have become the only dancing fireflies in this dark realm. With the help of the night vision mode of the dog wolf's electronic eye, the operator He Tao gradually saw the original appearance of the incident - the terrain here is more barren and spacious than their hidden hideout, and it is easier to get a glimpse of the whole picture. The vegetation near the coordinates is not luxuriant, but it looks quite intact, and there are no bloodstains, bullet marks, burning embers, or footprints on the ground, which are left behind by other battles...... If Jiang Lan really disappeared here, then he would either be fatally killed by the other party's blow, and he would have no time to make any resistance; Either that...... He voluntarily withdrew from the competition.

Will anyone be able to kill Jiang Lan with one hit in this closed beta? Lu Pingchuan questioned this, but another option is not impossible: Jiang Lan is not the kind of person who will suffer immediate losses, when he judges that the situation in front of him is beyond his control, he will very calmly hand over his identity card and admit defeat...... But in addition to judging that Jiang Lan had encountered an ambush that he couldn't fight back, Lu Pingchuan always had a vague sixth sense flashing in his heart: Jiang Lan's disappearance was probably related to the brother he was looking for, the stand-in "Sapphire" Huang Chen.

This idea is actually unfounded, but I don't know why, whenever the thought turns to the name "Sapphire", Lu Pingchuan's mind will keep alternating Jiang Lan and the ruthless opponent who had fought in close range in the last closed beta. This ID has become a kind of suggestive existence, representing a near-perfect hunter and his techniques, the difference is that Jiang Lan plays the bright side of the name, while Huang Chen is most likely his shadow incarnation.

"Captain, anomaly spotted!" He Tao sent a low drink through the earphones, interrupting the intricate thoughts in Lu Pingchuan's mind. Lu Pingchuan quickly came back to his senses, grabbed the earphones and said, "What's the situation?" ”

"The canine wolf found a strange object near the center of the target." He Tao reported to Lu Pingchuan while adjusting the angle of the camera displayed by the controller in his hand, "Please take a look, I think it should be Brother Jiang Lan." ”

"I'll come, and the others will stand by in place." Lu Pingchuan bent his waist and cautiously followed the shadow of the tree to He Tao, and asked, "What is it?" ”

"Look." He Tao pointed to the image in the middle of the controller screen, his expression a little excited. Lu Pingchuan glanced at it, and saw that what appeared in the camera was the rough diamond weighing 20 carats that Jiang Lan had once displayed.

Jiang Lan has the habit of carrying gems with him as hard currency, which is basically known to the team members who are familiar with him in the camp, but the appearance of this valuable diamond here made Lu Pingchuan feel shocked again - this gem appeared here, it should not be accidental, otherwise the scene would not be so clean, but just left such a valuable diamond. But through this stone, what message did Jiang Lan want to convey to them? Did he negotiate with the other party here, or did he mean something deeper?

Staring at the gem that sparkled even in the moonlight, Lu Pingchuan tried his best to recall all the conversations he had with Jiang Lan on the day he showed it - that day, they interrogated Pompeii's commander Joffrey, and got the judgment from him that the identity of the spy was likely to be the "shuffler" of the organizers, and then they discussed the ciphered instructions with Xia Yan, as well as ......

"Not good!" A thought suddenly flashed in Lu Pingchuan's heart, he immediately picked up the rifle in his hand and ordered the entourage, "Immediately retreat back to the new position, go quickly!" ”

On the day this diamond was displayed, Jiang Lan once told him one thing:

"I'll leave you something at the right outpost, and you'll know where I'm hiding, and if anything happens irreparably in Caesar's position, maybe you'll be able to use it."

However, before Lu Pingchuan's command could land, a sharp and piercing system alarm suddenly sounded in the earphones: "Beep-your teammate Xu Jiangong can't fight anymore, quit the battle, please prepare quickly." ”
