Chapter 942: Chapter 408: Seeing Twin Dreams Again_2

Su Shi added a sentence: "We lack transportation."

Lin Wu’s disciple, Lin Meng said: "Then we’ll just steal it, why not use this opportunity?" We don’t have transportation, but Nightmare does.

Tactically speaking, Nightmare generally wouldn’t deploy drones to patrol their controlled territory often. After our team infiltrates the Nightmare’s area, using drones for surveillance gives us a great chance to catch Nightmare off guard.

Maya isn’t afraid of Nightmare’s retaliation. With Nightmare’s character, if they knew Shadow was at the railway bridge, even if you don’t attack them, they would come at you anyway. However, there is also the possibility that Nightmare might just move their base, especially considering they have never won against Shadow, particularly Lin Wu.

Thus, in a sense, Nightmare sees Shadow and Lin Wu as enemies, but Shadow and Lin Wu have never regarded Nightmare as an enemy. This results in them initiating an unprovoked attack.

About Nightmare’s actions, though reprehensible, the players don’t see it as a big deal, they might even see it as a skill. In the gaming world, who hasn’t bullied NPCs, who doesn’t want to dominate and have all regions under their control.

Until the meeting adjourned, Maya never brought it up again.

She didn’t mention it, but Nightmare was anxious. Clearly, being the top in the world and now potentially being counter-killed, who wouldn’t be worried? But she knew, with only three people, and one of them being Xiao Jing who lacks combat ability, eliminating the ubiquitous Nightmare is as hard as reaching the heavens.

The next morning, a medium-sized fishing boat entered The Day After Tomorrow River from the sea, going upstream, traveling along the river until it reached under the railway bridge. Lin Wu, lying in the shade of the bridge, poked his head out and saw the boat and then Blood Meng on the deck of the boat.

The fishing boat was 37 meters long and 6 meters wide, with tires hanging from its body and a displacement of 100 tons, with a draft of 1-1.5 meters.

"This is good stuff," Lin Wu said. "Doomsday Fortress, can go into freshwater rivers, can operate near the coast."

Lin Meng lay beside Lin Wu, poked her head out and asked, "Doesn’t it consume a lot of fuel?"

Lin Wu said: "Nightmare must have found endless fuel."

"Endless fuel?"

Lin Wu continued, "Beached or in-port oil tankers. The fishing boat should have its own seawater purification system and can also be equipped with trawling nets."

Because the draft was over one meter, the boat didn’t dock but anchored three meters from the shore. The actual depth of The Day After Tomorrow River generally exceeds two meters, but after all, it was their boat and they didn’t want to risk it.

Blood Meng and Nightmare jumped into the water and swam to the shore, leaving Xiao Jing on the boat. It was clear that Xiao Jing had integrated into the world of Twin Dreams, after Twin Dreams left, she took off her jacket, lay on the beach chair on the deck, holding a bottle of liquor took a sip and then put it down again. Her carefree actions were a far cry from her usual self a month ago.

"I want to pee on her," Lin Wu came out of hiding.

Lin Meng hurriedly said, "Act like a human."

Lin Wu turned back and looked disdainfully at Lin Meng, who believed anything, then climbed up using the dangling ladder.

Twin Dreams walked about five hundred meters up to the bridge’s entrance and then another five hundred meters to reach the railway bridge base, where Maya and Lin Wu welcomed them. Stone couldn’t be bothered to come; compared to walking one to two hundred meters under the scorching sun, he preferred staying in the waterproof fabric gazebo drinking tea. Besides, Fortress Agent matters had always been handled by Maya.

Sitting with him, Su Shi commented, "Stone, you are becoming less and less like a boss."

Stone leaned back in the rocking chair with a wet towel over his face, "This is what a good boss is like; a boss should not meddle in too many matters. Besides, in the Shadows being a boss is a position, not an identity."

During their conversation, the phone rang, and Su Shi answered: "Hello."

Snow Egg: "Testing, testing, how’s the sound quality?" After many days of effort, they finally completed setting up the wiring work, running the telephone line to the Flowers, Plants, Vegetables, and Meat Base, although only 20% of the line was encased in piping, and would not last more than a few months under sun and wind. But a few months was already enough. The next step was to lay power lines, which posed bigger problems; one was insufficient voltage, another was that they only had five hundred meters of wire, not enough for their needs. The best solution would be to get another generator.

"Not bad," Su Shi asked, "What are you having today?"

Snow Egg: "Snake meat hotpot."

Stone and Su Shi immediately stood up, Su Shi said, "Let’s send over some salt." They were unceremonious, since without refrigeration, hunted game could not be preserved in summer. Spoiled meat had to be buried. Besides, Flowers and Plants had planted over five hundred square meters of vegetables, which they could never completely consume. At the railway bridge base, their meals were still just instant noodles, but with the harvest from Stone’s vegetable garden, there were now some vegetables in their instant noodles.

Stone and Su Shi visiting the Flowers, Plants, Vegetables, and Meat Base wasn’t purely for the food, it was to show their neutral stance, leaving decisions to be made by Maya.

...

Inside the pergola, Maya, Lin Wu, and Lin Meng welcomed Twin Dreams, having sweated through their clothes on just that short journey. Upon arrival, Twin Dreams dropped their backpacks, directly asked for water to pour on themselves to cool off before sitting down to drink a cup of hot tea, as it made them feel not so hot after all.

Seeing this, Lin Wu curiously asked, "Sister, how did you manage on the boat?" They were already almost dying after just a while.

Blood Meng answered, "Silly little brother, the cabin has air conditioning." Blood Meng did not hide it; they had actually found a small oil tanker transporting diesel. They towed the small oil tanker and beached it on a small deserted island twenty miles from the port, turning it into their own refueling station.
