"Change to their clothes, those electric currents won"t hurt you." Sheyan whispered. "Right, you did tell us those d.a.m.ned access pa.s.ses wouldn"t be damaged by electricity, right?"
The flabbergasted Abreu and Ache finally jolted back to their senses. They still felt that were dreaming as they uttered.
Y-y-yes, yes, yes…...the access pa.s.s are made with the new Jebeke circuits and is designed to withstand hundred thousand volts...."
"Shut it, I just needed an answer not concepts. Quick got retrieve their access cards, our time is limited." Sheyan"s tone became heavier and filled with an indescribable menacing awe.
Abreu and Ache were slightly shocked before they competed to race to the corpses. While searching for the access pa.s.ses, they naturally looted the deceased"s wallets, rings, and other valuables as well. It seemed like the life of poverty had affected them deeply.
The following events were needless to say. The trio occupied absolute supremacy. Since they could even mentally calculate the fight in their mind, the operation naturally succeeded without a hitch.
To their pleasant surprise, three other engineers were actually residing in this base station as well! Those three unlucky brats were just here for a random check, but were unexpectedly implicated and held prisoner.
Without a doubt, under the threat of bullets, those three engineers became capable a.s.sistances to Abreu and Ache. To ensure their full cooperation, Sheyan agreed to preserve their lives and bind them up before leaving.
With three additional aids, the theoretical efficiency and speed in utilizing the satellite surveillance to locate Zi increased by 200%. At least, they would definitely complete within those two hours.
Undoubtedly, Abreu was an exceedingly greedy fella with mere pa.s.sable skills. Instead, Ache was truly exceptional. With his a.s.sistance, it took a trifling 40 minutes for four of those satellites, countless miles above their heads, to begin stealthily servicing this base station.
According to the norms, this was an illegal operation. Yet in this future, the new energy stemming from dinocrystals had started shaping human nature, more and more towards wealth, profits and interests. Even uncorrupted militaries would, at times, skirt around the legal line.
Furthermore, the trio"s operation was held during the wee hours of the morning. Most personnels were asleep, while the few night s.h.i.+ft workers were all battling drowsiness. What more, with a inner thief like Abreu who knew the headquarters regulations inside out. Hence, they didn"t attract any unwanted attention. Presumably, it would probably take 4-5 hours for this criminal activity to see the light.
A 3D construct of the dinosaur disaster zone materialized before the trio"s eyes. The isolation of this zone had roughly occurred for six years already. The zone followed a long stretch of coastal region, including sh.o.r.elines, deserts, islands, mountains and other complex topography. The entire area spanned a frightening 2,600,000 square kilometres.
If not for technology progressing at an immeasurably rapid pace in this timeline, it wouldn"t have been so convenient to isolate such a special and astronomical zone. Of course, the technology progress in this world probably led the real world by 35 - 50 years. Otherwise, although 13 satellites sounded a lot, it wouldn"t be realistic to monitor the entire surface of this vast zone.
Of course, it was also because of the complex and tangled terrain of the dinosaur disaster zone, that allowed the trio an opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
"I"ve already infiltrated the main network of the headquarters." Ache explained with slightly dispirited demeanor. This was because of those three unexpected engineers, saving much time with regards to breaking the network code and such. Thus, Ache felt like a hero but with no chance to display his might.
"Please tell me your request."
Sheyan contemplated a little before replying.
"Bring out the records of all battles that happened in the past 48 hours."
"Ache glanced at Sheyan with slight astonishment and replied.
"Sir, in the past 48 hours, there has been a total of....310,344 instances of battles that occurred in the disaster zone. Are you sure you want to replay all of it?"
Brother Black was presently lazily chewing on a gum. Upon hearing that, he gaped in shock as the gum dropped out of his mouth.
"What the h.e.l.l? That many?"
Abreu shrugged his shoulders.
"That isn"t a terrifying figure actually. That is the reason why so many base stations have been constructed. Sir, you should know, this plot of land polluted by Cretaceous era gigantic green reptiles, is estimatedly 5-6 times the size of the previous French Republic. Anyway, the battle records also includes dinosaurs mutually hunting hunting each other."
"Oh, fine then." Sheyan nodded. "Reduce the scope of search to considerably large battles between only humans."
With that single request, a ma.s.sive portion of battle records were eliminated. Nevertheless, nearly 5,200 remained. Screening through such a figure sounded within reach, but is actually unrealistically far-fetched.
Fine then, let me bring out an intuitive comparison. Please open out all hidden doc.u.ments in your computer, and start counting the amount of j.a.panese p.o.r.n videos. Counting a hundred is already a ch.o.r.e, who would continue to conscientiously observe?
(ED: Mr. Author returns with his amazing a.n.a.logies!)
"Place a second set of filter. Within the battle records, eliminate all that doesn"t include any females." Sheyan calmly ordered.
Instantly, 4,800 battle records were shaved off. In such a cruel hunting ground like the dinosaur disaster zone, the inferiority of a woman"s stamina was magnified. The majority of them here was mainly in accompanying male partners, allowing them to release their prostate hormone fluids, while others, for the money.
Thus, they could only resort to filtering with their naked eyes for the remaining 400 battle records. Sheyan, Reef and Mogensha huddled together. As they filtered through the battle records, they personally witnessed scenes of the Illume-union being annihilated.
According to Abreu, the satellites definitely weren"t omnipotent. It wouldn"t be possible to truly monitor every single battlegrounds due to terrain and other factors, but could roughly harvest only 70%.
Thus, the trio only witnessed several scenes of clashes between Glory Party and the Illume-union. After viewing the footages, Sheyan was enlightened that he had truly underestimated Glory Party. Even if they did join hands with Illume-union previously, a direct frontal collision would still result in zero odds of victory.
"Pause here." Sheyan observed the front portrait of Zi while locked in combat. Her blue robe was fluttering vigorously along the wind, while her tall and elegant figure was portrayed in great details. Even in such dire straits, her charm blended with unrivalled heroism to paint an enchantment impossible for other women to replicate.
"Our target is that woman. Quick, track her whereabouts."
In this instant, both Abreu and Ache could already antic.i.p.ate Sheyan"s command. To them, an additional second in the zone presented untold dangers to one"s life. Since they now had a concrete target, they naturally exhibited their full talents!
Ma.s.sive loads of data and code started pouring out, as the paused image was swiftly scanned and duplicated. Soon, a 3D model of Zi formed along with her various actions. Right now, at least five satellites were faintly in action and serving the trio.
Concurrently, Sheyan seized the three captured engineers over, and commanded them to focus to filtering through the battle records previously sieved out. Ultimately, he effortlessly obtained a piece of information.
There wasn"t a single battle footage that included those individuals from the Skull Party. Not even a single footage of the Skull Party members battling dinosaurs were found.
This clearly indicated one possibility. There was truly a mole that had infiltrated the main satellite systems, and not only was he leveraging on them as their eyes and ears, he was strangling the opportunities for other parties to leverage the satellite system.
Thus, they could deduce that at least in this aspect, the Skull Party surmounted the Illume-union and even Glory Party.
"From how we can acquire achievement points from slaying them, I can determine that they definitely aren"t allied contestants. Since I possess a disruption protective screen, but I"ll still be forced to act pa.s.sively…...why not take the chance to chop off this spying mouthpiece!"
Thinking of that, Sheyan"s lips curled into a sly smirk.
"Ache, for outsiders like us, is there a possibility of acquiring the legal services of the satellite network for the long run?"
Ache answered without hesitation.
"Extremely difficult, sir. Unless you obtain authority from three nation leaders."
"Are there any other unconventional methods?" Sheyan intriguingly asked. "Say for example, exploiting certain loopholes, or sneaking into the place to access the network?"
Upon hearing that, Ache placed down his task on hand and muttered.
"Theoretically speaking, there ought to be a possibility sir. Besides, this network system had been developed six years ago, thus, I can"t say the technology is completely flawless. Moreover, the management seems to have become rather lax, if one were to audaciously employ certain advanced technology, there should be a possibility of accomplis.h.i.+ng that."
