The agreed meeting place with Roger was still Roger's house on the second floor of Sil City.

Compared with the crowded place of the bar, the environment of Roger's house is undoubtedly more suitable for secret joints, which is not only safer, but also can effectively prevent eavesdropping, and there is no need to worry about being disturbed.

Just kidding, as the supreme sheriff in the entire city of Sil, who has the guts to make a mistake in front of Roger?

If there is a place in the city with the highest level of security, it is Roger's mansion, apart from the energy district that supplies the entire city to generate electricity.

After all, his wife and daughter live here, and they are the most important presence for Roger!

Walking through the bustling business district, Meng Lei was not attracted by the increasingly prosperous shops around him, and walked directly to the shaft passage in the deepest part of the city.

Coming to the second-floor living area through the elevator, Meng Lei had a clear goal and went straight to the luxury residential area of Area C.

On the road, you can see many Blue Star players, wandering around the densely structured townhouse area.

According to some of the introductions given by Chen Yu and Ning Wen before, these players should all be recruited into the alliance system, and the alliance will arrange housing in a unified manner.

Although the living environment is relatively simple and stressful, it can be compared to others who can only make the original reclamation boat their home.

Living in this environment is still very helpful for the regulation of mental state.

Along the way, Meng Lei was constantly thinking in his heart, wondering what the scale of the gathering place that Roger chose for him would be?

Are there any luxury mansions like Sil City in the living quarters?

To be honest, since the crossing of more than half a month, he has not slept in a spacious and comfortable bed for a day.

From the Guixu's living quarters, transfer to the Sea Locust's captain's quarters.

The environment has changed, and the comfort has been improved, but there is no difference in nature.

The first thing I saw when I woke up was always the cold and glowing metal bulkhead, which was invisibly depressing.

To say that you don't want to go back to normal life is definitely false.

He also hopes that one day, he can live a life like Roger, at least have a house, and have a real home.

Although, in order to return to Blue Star, the days ahead are destined to be indefinite and perennial drift.

But homelessness and homelessness are two different concepts, and there will be a lack of some sustenance in the heart.

Thinking about it suddenly, unconsciously, Meng Lei came to the luxurious villa located in the second-story living area again.

The cascading single-family buildings exude an air of opulence, and armed men in security officers' uniforms can often be seen patrolling the streets here, with security forces on par with those in the energy district.

Meng Lei's footsteps were fast, walking along the smooth and smooth rocky pavement, walking on the familiar road in his memory.

Building 12 in Area C, the residence of Roger, the head of the Security Office of Sil City, soon appeared in front of him.

In the courtyard, the old woman with a slender figure, still wearing a hood knitted with a scarf, conscientiously took care of the fragrant and sweet villa garden, like a robot, as if she was never tireless.

Coming to the door again, Meng Lei stepped forward enthusiastically and greeted the old woman.

"Old man, are you still busy?"

Hearing Meng Lei's steady footsteps, the old woman had already discovered his arrival.

Putting down the gardening tools for pruning flowers and plants in his hand, he also had a smile on his face that seemed kind, but it contained a mysterious smile, and a hoarse voice came out of his mouth.

"Yes, young man, are you here to find Chief Luo again?"

They had just met yesterday, and coupled with Roger's enthusiastic attitude at that time, the old woman naturally had a deep impression of Meng Lei.

Meng Lei nodded, did not enter the door rashly, always maintained a polite smile, and said:

"That's right, old man, I have to trouble you to help me report today, thank you!"

Her deep eyes stared at Meng Lei, and the old woman twitched her exaggerated hooked nose slightly, nodded slightly, and then slowly turned around, staggering into the hall door.

This time, too, it didn't take long for the door to open again.

However, it was not Roger who came out, it was still the old woman.

"Young man, Chief Luo is waiting for you in the study on the third floor, you can go up directly."

Meng Lei was a little surprised, this was the third time they met, and Roger let him in so easy-going and bold?

Not to mention the number of courtesies, this Roger is inevitably too relieved of him, as if he has been an old friend for many years.

Stunned for a moment, Meng Lei didn't think too much, and after thanking the old woman, he entered directly through the main entrance, and then came to the study on the third floor with a familiar car.

"Winter, Winter, Winter".

There was a knock on the door, and Roger's low, magnetic voice was immediately heard in the room.

"Enter!"

Meng Lei stood at the door and straightened out the captain's uniform, and then pushed the door in.

Today, Roger changed to a pair of glasses, and the silver frame became gold-edged, which set off his whole person more elegantly, with a Sven temperament that is extremely rare on alien planets.

At this moment, Roger was hunched in front of his desk, clicking on something on his handheld tablet.

It seems, like he's on business.

"Captain Meng, sit casually, there are still some things to deal with here, wait a while."

Roger didn't raise his head to explain to Meng Lei, and then continued to take care of himself.

"It's okay, you're busy first."

Meng Lei didn't mind, he sat down on the sofa very familiarly, and waited for Roger to finish his business.

After a short time, Roger breathed a long sigh of relief, seemed to have unloaded some kind of burden, came to Meng Lei with a touch of relief on his face, and said with a smile:

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry to call you over to work with me."

Meng Lei shook his head disapprovingly, waved his hand, and said:

"Director Luo's words are out of sight, you are in an important position, it is normal to work overtime every day, and the recent chaos is coming, I am afraid that your daily workload has increased several times compared to before, how can I take this little thing to heart."

Hearing this, Roger nodded noncommittally and sighed:

"Thank you for your understanding, as you said, there are too many things to coordinate and deal with in the past two days, and the working hours are simply too busy, so I can only bring them home to do."

After a pause, Roger took out a box of high-end cigarettes in pure metal packaging from the cabinet under the pantry, opened the lid and handed one to Meng Lei, and continued:

"Just now I was communicating with the military stronghold, the war is about to start, the resources of all parties have been deployed, if nothing else, the nearby armed fleet will leave in three days, go to the organizational stronghold in the abandoned waterway next door, and launch a military suppression!"

Meng Lei was stunned, and said with a surprised expression:

"So fast? War in three days? ”

Originally, Meng Lei thought that the verbal and written criticism between the alliance and the separatist organizations in the media would have to continue for at least some more time.

After all, this war is different from the past, and once it starts, it will be a situation of no end.

For pre-war preparations, it is necessary to make adequate planning and be prepared to fight a long-term and protracted war.

Unexpectedly, the alliance is about to set off, and it is going to completely ignite the flames of war!

"yes, the response from the alliance was quick, and this is something we didn't expect."

Roger sighed slightly, and after lighting the cigarette, he changed his tone and said with a relaxed face:

"However, we have a general grasp of the route of the alliance's march, including the target of this attack, which is also under our control, and it is not so easy for the alliance to defeat our outpost in one fell swoop."

Hearing this, Meng Lei couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, silently praying for the alliance expeditionary fleet.

With the existence of a spy like Roger lurking in the upper echelons of the Alliance, if the Alliance can easily win this war, then it will be a hell of a disaster!

Any offensive line encirclement and suppression plan, even if it is done in detail and meticulously, will be known by the enemy one step in advance, so as to respond.

At least in the early stage of the war, the alliance will definitely suffer a few big losses!

However, another possibility is not ruled out.

After all, the alliance knew that there was a big problem within itself, and it was quite seriously infiltrated by the enemy.

Therefore, there is no guarantee that the tentative attack in the early stage of the alliance will be a bait in some sense, used to fish out the inner ghosts lurking around you and clean the inside.

Roger, for example, if he secretly passed the Alliance's offensive plan to the Breakaway Groups, he set up an ambush on the Alliance's marching route in advance.

Then the alliance will inevitably find clues, and then lock all the insiders and investigate them one by one.

Then Roger's identity will be at great risk of exposure!

Taking a deep breath, Meng Lei took the cigarette holder in his mouth and chewed it a few times, his eyes revealing a solemnity.

With a slight groan, he raised his concerns and warned Roger not to be careless.

And after listening to Meng Lei's reminder, Roger looked at Meng Lei with a touch of surprise on his face, with a touch of approval, and nodded with a smile:

"I'm a little surprised to see this, there are very few people in the younger generation of the Tia on another planet as smart as you, and I really didn't choose the wrong person!"

After a pause, Roger added curiously:

"Or is it that you Blue Star people generally have such a high IQ?"

Meng Lei grinned when he heard this, and laughed at himself calmly: "Director Luo, don't hide it, I didn't even go to college in Lanxing, and my education level is considered below average among my peers, and the word high IQ has nothing to do with me at all!" ”

When the words fell, the expression on Roger's face was slightly stunned, and then he smiled bitterly:

"University ...... Far away, for those of us who are the remnants of Tia, it is an educational institution that has only existed on the home planet in history, and most of our settlements don't even have a decent school!

It is only a matter of time before our race decays to extinction without your presence! ”

Hearing Roger's words, Meng Lei realized something.

Since setting foot in Ciel City, and even with the Molten Outpost inside, it seems that he has not seen any kind of school, any real educational institution.

All the buildings and facilities seem to exist only for survival and pleasure, and there is no basis for the continuation of civilization.

The question then arises, how exactly did the alliance and the major private arms dealers develop technology and achieve more advanced technological achievements than ever before in such an environment?

Roger patiently gave an explanation for this question.

"Within the first sea area of the alliance, there are individual gathering places that are professional academic districts, which are used to train various types of technical talents, so as to ensure that our technical level will not be regressed all the time.

The same is true for the major private arms companies, which have special training institutions, which allow for the sustainable development of cutting-edge technology in various fields.

However, due to the tense living environment of the gathering place and the great pressure brought by the deep-sea life.

Ordinary people have lost the most basic learning opportunities, and people are often only able to learn their craft on the job, but they are not able to acquire real knowledge.

This includes mechanics, engineers, doctors, and security personnel in our talent market, and even some self-proclaimed captains.

All so! ”

After a slight pause, Roger showed a touch of helplessness and regret on his face, and said in a deep voice:

"Such a social environment is destined for the development of we, the remnants of Tia, to enter a state of stagnation at some point in the future, and then begin to regress rapidly in an all-round way!

At that point, everything will be irreparable......"

Roger's voice was a little heavy, and it was clear that he was genuinely worried about the future of the Tia.

Meng Lei didn't speak, and he couldn't do anything about it.

Neither could he offer words of comfort nor any reasonable suggestions, but he kept this detail in his heart and planned to go back and have a good chat with Chen Yu, so as not to follow the old path of the Tia in the future.

"Okay, whether the alliance has any fishing attempts, you don't have to worry about this for the time being, I have my own arrangements."

Roger took an elegant puff of his cigarette and leaned back on the soft sofa, feeling comfortable and comfortable.

The gold-rimmed glasses reflected a shallow fluorescence in the incandescent light, which was reflected on the glass lenses, obscuring Roger's deep brown eyes, making it impossible to see the colors in his eyes.

But from the angle of his side head, it can be found that his gaze is completely focused on Meng Lei at the moment, and he slowly spoke:

"I came to you today, with only one purpose, to discuss the future development direction of the Chongming fleet."

Hearing this, Meng Lei's expression turned grim, and he immediately answered:

"Your exploratory think tank has already given a detailed plan?"

Roger nodded and said with a smile:

"That's right, the plan is indeed out."

"Pretty fast!"

Although he had already had a guess about this in his heart, Meng Lei couldn't help but mutter, slightly surprised.

I have to say that the efficiency of the exploratory faction of the separation organization is indeed high and terrifying.

The partnership was just finalized yesterday, and today the implementation plan was brought out, which is simply seamless and amazing.

"Of course it's fast, it's not a difficult thing."

At this time, Roger smiled slightly and explained to Meng Lei:

"In fact, our think tank has long investigated the distribution of resources in the sea areas where each waterway is located.

If it weren't for the overall strength of the partner, or even the time to make a plan, I would have been able to provide you with a large number of coordinates for you to choose from.

However, such actions are irresponsible to you and do no good to our overall plans.

So, we have to be cautious in this matter! ”

Hearing this, Meng Lei nodded noncommittally, didn't dwell too much on anything else, and went straight to the point and asked:

"What is the plan you have given, and what kind of resource supply do you want us to focus on in the future?"

The establishment of a complete supply system is definitely not a state of complete chaos, and it is necessary to have reasonable planning and a suitable and stable supply chain.

This is the foundation and the guarantee.

Roger continued to smoke elegantly, and at the same time picked up another tablet from the table and placed it in front of Meng Lei:

"The plan we have given is not a single one, there are several different routes for you to choose from!"

As he spoke, Roger opened the tablet, and after some manipulation, his fingers touched a certain button on the tablet.

Suddenly, a virtual projection with similar functions to the company's internal tablet used by Yarman was impressively presented in front of Meng Lei's eyes.

It was a large-scale map of the sea area built from a three-dimensional data model like a sonar navigation display.

Among them, some important information is marked with red light spots, which can be arbitrarily zoomed in and out for careful identification.

"This is a topographic map of the northern area of the Muguang Sea Plain, and the special points marked on it are several super-large natural fishing grounds, where there are harmless fish of fixed species all year round, and they are very suitable for hunting as fish ponds."

Roger explained, shrinking the map and bringing up another map, saying:

"This is the general topography of the 66668 channel, which is relatively the closest to the abandoned channel in the northern area of the Muguang Sea Plains.

Here, there are more than twenty abandoned outposts, large and small!

You can choose any one of them as an initial base to build, and then use the natural fishing grounds of the Moonless Sea Plains to develop food resources. ”

After a pause, Roger added:

"Of course, these twenty or so outposts are big and small, and many of them have large gathering places, if you have enough strength, it is not impossible to completely annex this entire waterway!

But my advice to you is not to fight the idea of those large gathering places in the early stage. ”

Hearing this, Meng Lei raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head sideways and asked in surprise:

"Why?"

Roger smiled slightly and said, "The main reason for the abandonment of this waterway is that the outbreak of the space tide back then caused a sea monster riot, which completely swept the entire waterway, causing unimaginable disasters!"

As a last resort, the alliance could only forcibly break through and transfer, and had no choice but to give up control of this waterway.

Although most of the sea monsters retreated after the low tide period, the damage to the waterway was too severe to be repaired and restored, so the waterway was permanently abandoned.

At that time, the most severely attacked sea monsters were the largest gathering places.

After so many years, no one knows whether there are any remaining sea monsters nesting in it.

But in terms of danger, the larger the scale of the building, the higher the risk factor.

Therefore, in the early stage of development, it is not recommended that you go to those large-scale gathering places to open up wasteland, so as not to even have the ability to resist after encountering an accident, and you will be wiped out directly! ”

Meng Lei pursed his lips when he heard this, and from Roger's simple description, he could smell a hint of danger coming to his face.

Thinking of something, Meng Lei couldn't help but squint at Roger, and asked with a bitter face:

"Director Luo, didn't you say that the coordinates of the outpost provided to me are absolutely safe and without hidden dangers? How can it come up to such a dangerous place, with the current strength of our fleet, isn't going to this kind of place to open up wasteland tantamount to delivering food? ”

Roger smiled and shook his head, and said:

"There is no such thing as a truly safe place in this dark and cold alien ocean, and all I can offer you are some of the least dangerous passages and outposts overall.

Relatively speaking, the 66668 channel can be regarded as a relatively safe sea area, even if there is a risk, it is within the controllable range.

If you are directly asked to go to those passages that may be entrenched in the legendary Kraken, then it is really a food delivery! ”

"Legendary Kraken?"

Hearing this new term, Meng Lei suddenly showed a curious look.

The sea monster with the word "demon" in its name is already an extremely terrifying existence in his concept.

For example, the Banshee of the Abyss, the Black Emperor Morok, etc.

But the legendary Kraken, he had heard it for the first time, and he couldn't imagine what kind of existence it would be.

"Yes, the legendary krakens are more terrifying than ordinary super-large krakens, they even have their own names, and they are the most terrifying existence in the abyss!"

Roger took a deep breath, his eyes showing a look of trepidation, as if he touched some memory that he didn't want to remember.

"For example, in the space tidal explosion a few decades ago, there was a distorted worm painting skin, and its body underwent a double mutation of distortion and painting skin infection!

It is already a super-large sea monster, and the impact of the double mutation makes it an even more terrifying existence than an ordinary doomsday worm!

Since it first appeared in the Raglan Strait, it was later called Doomsday Worm Raglan!

It was given a special name to distinguish it from ordinary worms.

Later, all alien krakens that can be given special names are called legendary kraken, and they are terrifying beings that will turn into nightmares even if they are placed in the deep zone! ”

"So ruthless?!"

Meng Lei heard that Tong Kong was slightly enlarged, and his heart was suddenly shocked.

He had heard Hans mention the Doomsday Worm, which had undergone a double mutation, and had caused unimaginable disaster to the Alliance decades earlier.

However, at that time, Hans did not mention the term "legendary kraken", and Meng Lei was only amazed by the other party's description.

Now I've heard Roger mention it again, and mention the special title of "Doomsday Worm Raglan".

Meng Lei suddenly felt that the forced style had improved a lot all of a sudden, and there was an invisible pressure lingering in his heart.

"It's too far away for you to think about it yet."

At this time, Roger returned to his normal expression and said to Meng Lei:

"Legendary Krakens are not so easy to be born, and throughout the world, the Alliance has only collected information on no more than ten Legendary Krakens in total.

Moreover, most of them are entrenched in the depths of shallow waterways, at the end of some abandoned waterways, or in the bottomless abyss, and do not easily show their faces.

The reason why I am talking to you so much is just to tell you,

The coordinate data I can provide to you are all strictly screened and there is not much risk.

In the same way, we at Explorer don't want to lose a great partner! ”

Meng Lei nodded slightly, didn't dwell too much on this issue, and asked:

"In addition to the natural fishing grounds near the 66668 channel, what other resource concentration areas are available?"

Although his understanding of this area is not deep enough, Meng Lei has no intention of continuing his research.

He wanted to have a general understanding of the content of several plans that the explorers could give, and then make targeted choices according to the situation.

Roger smiled slightly, waved his hand and closed the two holographic maps in front of him.

Then, he picked up the tablet and operated it for a while, and the holographic projection once again showed a different picture.

"This is an underground cavity close to the Sea of Miracles, and there is no specific conclusion yet on how vast the scope is, and it is a strange sea area that the Alliance has recently explored.

Some sources suggest that there may be a seafloor fissure leading to the leveling zone, but no one has confirmed it so far, and the Coalition has not released much information to the public.

According to the information available to me, there are a large number of unmined natural mineral deposits, as well as a number of rare plant resources that can be harvested repeatedly, which are one of the basic raw materials for many polymeric materials.

At the moment, the Coalition is only using this as a strategic resource reserve, and has no intention of starting mining it immediately.

You can get ahead of the Alliance, and even if you find out about the Alliance, you won't have anything to say because it's Borderlands. ”

While explaining, Roger called up another map and presented it to Meng Lei, saying:

"This is a map of the 66512 channel, which is also an abandoned channel with a range of more than 600 kilometers from that underground cavity.

Although it is relatively far away, there is no threat of independent colonies and pirates nearby, so you can rest assured that you can develop! ”

The words fell, and Roger didn't explain too much.

Immediately afterwards, he called up other materials and explained them to Meng Lei one by one.

"This is the Hiberil Mound, near the 66518 channel, rich in minerals, but somewhat close to the territory of the Crimson Mining Company.

Although theoretically it is still terra nullius, if Crimson Mining takes a tough stance, forced mining will inevitably lead to conflicts, so consider carefully......"

……

"And here, the Union calls it the Blake Strait, and more broadly the Blake Shipwreck Cemetery!

Many years ago, the end of the strait was an important shipping route to the Leveling Zone, and in order to open it up, the Pioneers fought several large-scale wars with sea monsters, and countless ships fell.

Even after the collapse of the waterway, many merchant ships and pirate groups were killed here.

But now the sea is quite quiet, and the sea monsters are not as dense as they used to be.

Although there are no special bare resources to be mined, the thousands of shipwrecks are also a treasure that is hard to ignore!

Whether it is salvaged or dismantled, a large amount of resources can be obtained.

At least in the short term, the benefits are not much worse than mining a medium-sized vein, and it is something you can prefer......"

……

In the next ten minutes, Roger took out one set of plans after another and put them in front of Meng Lei, patiently and in detail explained the advantages and disadvantages of various plans to him.

Meng Lei listened to it for a while, and it was really difficult to choose.

At this moment, he is like standing at a fateful crossroads, and life is rare and at a loss......
