Chapter 162: Vanguard

"Zhang San!"

"Here!"

Coming out of the vanguard team, a leader responded to Hu Yiming.

"You have to take seven people in and explore it, find out the general situation inside, and if there are people, don't attack them yet, and then discuss it when you get back."

"Yes!"

Hu Yiming instructed Zhang San.

After Zhang San responded, he happily took people into the car.

Most of the abilities in their squad are direction-probing, and in the case of Zhang San, he has excellent eyesight and can see far away.

There is also one in the team with an infrared wave ability, which can detect the presence of life at a distance of 500 meters in front of it.

They drove to the edge of the forest and got off here.

Then cover his body slightly.

Zhang San mobilized his ability and looked into the distance.

A pale blue glow shrouded his eyes.

I saw that his pupils turned into vertical pupils, reflecting the distant scenery from the middle.

Soon he saw what the factory looked like.

There was moss climbing on the closed gate, and it seemed like no one was cleaning it.

He swept through the houses one by one, but there was no sign of anyone.

"You can get closer."

Zhang San said to his teammates.

Eventually, he turned on his abilities and directed the crowd to approach from the corner.

When they finally reached the perimeter of the factory wall, the man with the infrared ability activated his ability.

A red halo hung over his body.

The infrared wave swept the distance of 500 meters in front of it, passing through all the walls and obstacles.

If there is life, there will be nothing to hide.

The man frowned, probing.

"There's no one around 500 meters here."

He said.

Then he put away his ability.

"Let's go, go in and investigate."

With that, one of the Earth-based Adepts in the team summoned a pile of earth blocks from the ground and built an earthen ladder by the wall.

They stepped on an earthen ladder and jumped into the wall.

Sure enough, as they had discovered, there was no one here.

They kept going.

Many of the exterior cladding in this neighborhood has peeled off.

There are also fallen trees and withered plants.

"It looks like there's really no one."

"Don't let up, keep exploring, and don't let go of every room."

"Yes!"

One by one, they searched the nearby buildings.

Until we meet again after 10 minutes.

"Captain, there isn't any life nearby."

"I found the layout of the factory, give it."

A team member handed him a layout plan of the factory.

Even if there are veteran salt workers in the team who used to work in this factory, others are only workers after all, and they will not know the layout of the entire factory.

Now they can find a layout plan that will make it easier for them to settle into the factory in the future.

"The 500 meters are clear, and we'll continue to explore inside."

"I see that the location of the gate is on the east side, and we start probing from the west side and finally go out from the east side."

Zhang San said.

Then the people rested again, and they went deeper into it.

After another 1 kilometer, there was no life.

It wasn't until they were about to get close to the gate of the east gate that they noticed the anomaly.

Zhang San first used his visual ability to see the traces of the burnt bonfire.

"There are traces of human activity here."

"Check it out with your abilities."

Seeing this, the infrared ability quickly summoned the ability, and he hid in the dark, sensing the situation in the open space in front of him.

Four red figures appeared in his line of sight.

"Captain! There were four people in the room. ”

"More than ......"

Zhang San said in a heavy tone.

As soon as the infrared powerhouse's voice fell, the east gate opened.

A dozen Adepts came through the gate.

Judging by the energy fluctuations coming from their bodies, they are all high-level abilities.

It's not something they can deal with.

"Go around to the side and probe again, and be sure to detect the number of people in the entire east."

With that, the infrared adept moved into another corner under the cover of another adept.

He summoned his own abilities again.

He was followed by a psychic with a keen ear.

As he got closer to the east gate, he could clearly hear the group of people talking.

"It's crazy that the base sent us to this kind of factory? There is nothing here. ”

"It is said that there is a salt factory here, and the people above want to take it down to produce salt."

"Is there a need for us? We're high-level abilities around level 20! It's just overkill. ”

"Besides, we don't know how to make salt, so it's useless to hold these machines."

"Who knows? Boss, they're already gathering people who will use the salt-making machines, and we're definitely not going to do it. ”

"What a speechless! Coming here is like being exiled. ”

The hot-tempered Adeptus waved his fist and said with a reluctant face.

The captain beside him looked at him helplessly.

"Think in the better direction, at least you don't have to follow those rules here, and you're free."

The hot-tempered man could only restrain the anger in his heart and snorted angrily.

And while they're talking, the infrared and ear powers gather the information they want.

It didn't take long for Zhang San to see his gesture of being ok.

An order was then given to the crowd to retreat.

They quietly returned the same way and left the factory.

Picking up speed, I got back to the top of the hill.

Hu Yiming and the others, who had been waiting here, looked at them.

"How's it going?"

Wu Qiong was the first to ask.

"There are indeed people inside, but there are not many of them, there are 20 Adepts in total."

"Basically, they are all high-level abilities above level 20, and there are also a few extraordinary abilities."

"It looks like they just came in, and I saw that the supplies and tents they were carrying on their carts were very new, and they were all on the east gate, and there was no one else."

After Zhang San finished speaking, he handed them the collected factory layout map.

Hu Yiming took the map and looked at it carefully.

"Good! There are only 20 Adepts here in this factory, and the 50 people on our side are not afraid even if they meet them. ”

"Although the FΓΌhrer told us not to startle the snakes, this factory is located on a major transportation route, and a little to the east can reach the coastline to reconnoiter the fishing grounds, and to the west can directly and unimpeded to the Qingtian base."

"If we want to complete our other reconnaissance missions, taking this factory is the best option."

"At this time, there are only 20 people in the factory, which is not a lot of people, and we can still control the factory at a very small cost."

Hu Yiming said.

The opportunity is rare, and he wants to take this opportunity to directly knock down the factory.

If the information is transmitted back to the military headquarters, and then the military headquarters will mobilize soldiers to come over, maybe it will send more manpower here.
