Chapter 271: Chapter 235: Cover Deployment"Lin Xian!" When KIKI heard this, her face turned pale instantly, her eyes blazing as she glared at Lin Xian. If not for the presence of so many people, she would have rushed up and strangled him. Lin Xian pointed to the mecha beneath his feet: "Once it’s repaired, do you want to be the first to drive it?" To his surprise, KIKI’s gaze cleared significantly upon hearing this, she looked at him with a mix of anger and anticipation and quickly said: "You said that, mind you." "Lin Xian, what’s the plan now?" S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chen Sixuan quickly asked, seeing the strange corpse in the water. Lin Xian, now serious, said: "Initially, I wanted to deploy the whole team for exploration, but judging by the situation below, it’s much more complicated. It’s better not to spread out. Wait until I repair this mecha, then we can head out together." "Oh?" KIKI regrettably said: "Such a big research facility, shouldn’t we take a look? What if there’s more good stuff?" Lin Xian pointed at the eerie head in the water: "Monsters that can cause hallucinations are quite threatening. Moreover, we just encountered monsters that crawl through ventilation ducts; I’m guessing the isolation wall at the test site is breached and quite a few eerie things have entered this research institute. Under such circumstances, we shouldn’t be greedy." In horror movies, where they know this area is strange, insisting on splitting up is truly foolish. In terms of resources, Infinity hasn’t reached a life-and-death situation, and if not for the mecha beneath him, Lin Xian would have already led everyone to retreat. Anyway, he had already achieved his initial goal of finding the Medical Cabin, which was beyond expectations. Furthermore, now it’s night, and Infinity might also face other risks, so Lin Xian didn’t want to linger. "How about this? We can search this level, and it might also cover you. Once you’re done, we can all leave together?" KIKI immediately suggested. Looking at the empty research institute in front of her, KIKI would feel a loss if they didn’t scour for something useful. But she also knew Lin Xian’s reasoning was sound, so she offered a somewhat compromised suggestion. Lin Xian pondered for a moment after hearing this, then immediately said: "Alright, but we’re underground in this research institute, and the water is rising. To be safe, we should prepare for both outcomes." "KIKI." Lin Xian looked at KIKI: "Where is the exit for the mecha lift dedicated to this hangar?" KIKI quickly searched using her mobile terminal: "Exit F, but this is at the number 3 test site, which is outside the Qingshui Town test site we entered previously. It’s the exit for large machinery." Lin Xian frowned slightly upon hearing this, then immediately said: "Got it." Next, he looked at the building: "Building, you lead people to guard the elevator passage to facilitate personnel evacuation later." "Shu Qin, Lv Chang, you take the atrium. The lake water here might be problematic or could be due to some strange phenomenon, affecting our communication transmission distance. You two have good skills, so handle the relay of information while gathering resources." "And KIKI, you’re responsible for protecting Director Ding, take her to several key areas to look for useful information, preferably related to superpowers or Abnormal Bodies. This Foundation Research Institute seems to have deeper research in these areas than the Phoenix Society, which might be helpful to us." "Teacher Chen, you and Miao Lu stay here to cover me. I estimate I’ll be done in about 40 minutes to an hour." "Okay." Chen Sixuan nodded upon hearing this. Lin Xian immediately added: "Ensure team movements aren’t too scattered, and any room exploration must have at least three people. Keep illumination. The power could cut off at any time. Besides humans and Abnormal Bodies, there are unknown experimental subjects here. If encountered, must exert full effort to kill, mark and clear the area. If overwhelmed, retreat to the atrium elevator and here, while other teams provide support!" "Understood!" Everyone replied in unison. Besides Lu Xingchen, Sha Sha, and several convoy members staying on Infinity, the 24 combat-capable members of Infinity were present. Lin Xian’s allocation ensured each team had a male member capable of wielding the Roarer K23 Electric Revolving Gun. Apart from this, all members were equipped with standard tactical flashlights, explosives, Artillery, anti-toxic masks, and cutting devices. "Alright, everyone, stay safe, begin operations!" Upon hearing Lin Xian’s deployment, everyone’s morale soared, and they immediately began to take action. The equipment firepower of Infinity’s convoy members was strong now, coupled with improved physical attributes, forming an impressive force. Upon hearing Lin Xian’s clear deployment and team support, everyone instantly felt the urgency and started teams moving. "Teacher Chen..." "I know." Chen Sixuan interrupted before Lin Xian could finish, saying to him, "Just focus on your work; I’ll keep an eye on this region." Lin Xian opened his mouth, but seeing Chen Sixuan’s serious expression, he swallowed his words, nodded to her: "Okay, stay safe." Chen Sixuan nodded, took a deep breath, and immediately instructed Miao Lu and several team members: "Let’s observe around here. Watch out for what’s in the rising water." "Got it!" Watching the speed of the rising water, since the ninth floor has the largest space, it will take a while to completely submerge, but in this short time, it’s almost flooding the mecha cockpit already, prompting urgency in his heart.
