  Chapter 179 Warehousing
  freight truck. Eighteen advanced slowly in the abandoned base, like a giant beetle Li
  Pan holding a flashlight to clear the way. From time to time he squatted on the ground to check the craters and explosion traces on the ground.

  Obviously, the Martian Marines at the door did not come to the company base for a tea party.

  A veteran with a nail on his forehead is the best of the best. In terms of combat quality, he is basically at the level of a three-headed dog.

  And they are different from those veterans who sleep in space capsules and serve in border worlds remotely through QVN. Their real combat robots stay in other worlds and can only sweep streets and work as security guards after they retire.

  Mars MM is the top combat force guarding the earth in this world. They serve on Mars all year round and always use their own bodies. Coupled with the top transformation and strengthening technology provided by local companies, they basically represent the strongest in this plane. Individual soldier quality.

  In the last Takamagahara war, it was because the main force of the Mars MM was so frustrated that it was swept away in the fleet battle. As a result, the special forces led by the Iron Queen were able to brutally torture Asan's servants in the special battle on the South Asian continent.

  But no matter what, there is no doubt about the strength of Mars MM. At least the company at that time was obviously completely unable to stop it. It was overwhelmed by the opponent, and it wiped out all the way, completely destroying the resistance, and penetrated deep into the base. It seemed that there was nothing to do in the end. , simply close the door and beat the dogs, the base will self-destruct, and all the invaders will be wiped out.

  As for why Martian MM attacked the company, it's actually not surprising. It's just that the specific reason and time are hard to guess.

  After all, the troops of Mars in the past were all dogs from Takamagahara.

  So far, 0791 companies have gone bankrupt thirteen times. It seemed that he had had a head-on conflict with Gao Tianyuan and lost the Holy Grail bidding war more than once.

  Although Gao Tianyuan looks quite rubbish now, no matter how wealthy he was back then, he was a local snake holding three Titan fleets, and he was head-to-head with Zhutian Company.

  Back when they didn't fall out with the committee, the forces of Starfleet, Mars MM, and the Frontier Veterans Security Bureau were all under the control of the Oda family. There were many overt and covert methods, which were more than enough to deal with a regional subsidiary. .

  Li Pan could find very few clues. All the electronic equipment was destroyed by the company and completely self-destructed. It was obvious that the winner was decided and he was forced to clear all the data to avoid the enemy from obtaining company secrets.

  No wonder the construction of the Callisto base is so slow. How good is it to build a Titan under the eyes of others?

  I'm afraid if you don't create it for a while, others will come and fight for a while, and you will create it for a while, and others will come and fight for a while. If you repeatedly self-explode and set back the progress, and you have to dig and build again, it will become an ineffective investment.

  Of course, Gao Tianyuan and the Ye family have no time to care about him now. When the main force of the Ye family gradually enters 0791, they will not sit back and watch TheM come out with a whole Titan under their noses and challenge their authority on the earth.

  Freight truck No. 18 called, "Boss, you're on the wrong track. The warehouse is on the left." "

  No hurry, I'll go around twice, you go first."

  Passing through the dilapidated base facilities, Li Pan's doubts grew more and more.

  Why, why is the Xuan Ming Qi in this base so strong?
  Li Pan previously thought that there was some special magnetic field or spiritual veins in the ice sea beneath Callisto, but in fact, after circling twice, he discovered that the interior of the base was a Titan cabin isolated from the ice, and the true energy was not What comes in from the outside is radiated from within.

  And as Li Pan chased after the source of the flow of true energy, he saw more and more illusions of this kind. Saw traces of 'people'.

  Rather than a soul, it is more like a replay of some past episode. Judging from the clothing, there are researchers and experimenters, regular workers and temporary workers. There is no doubt that they are all employees of the former company, but without exception. Their faces and existence have been deleted, leaving only silhouettes passing through Li Pan's peripheral vision from time to time.

  Following these figures, Li Pan gradually came to the core of the base, the source of Xuanming's true energy.

  This should be a genetic laboratory, with biological petri dishes, artificial uterus, and cloning cabins everywhere. It should be a facility on Titan used to train crew members' prosthetics.

  All the equipment was burned, the records were deleted, there were only large areas of ashes on the ground, and the alloy cabin was in a mess. There were traces of damage by strange forces everywhere, as if it was the scene of some biohazard rampage.

  There were no corpses at the scene, but using fluorescent lights, you could see the remains of human genes on the floor, walls, and ceiling, and clear silhouettes of people, as if part of the destroyed human body remained permanently.

  "Has it been deleted..."

  Li Pan looked at the mess on the ground, and finally found a closed door.

  The door was welded shut, the control panel seemed to be damaged, and Li Pan couldn't open it. But he could feel that Xuan Ming's true energy was seeping out from the other side of the door.

  What's interesting is that Li Pan also found the skeleton of an outsider at the gate.

  It was obvious that he was an outsider, because all the company employees at the scene were 'burned' to death, and although this person's body was not found, he was actually frozen to death.

  Judging from the position, this person should have reached out to push the door. As a result, Xuan Ming's true energy entered his body, and he was frozen into an ice sculpture. He smashed to the ground and broke into pieces. It scattered in a large area on the ground. It creaked and shattered under his boots. It sounds like broken ice.

  However, no silver nails were found on the fragments of this corpse. I am afraid it is not a Martian MM, but an agent like a infiltration investigator.

  Li Pan also touched the door casually, and could feel the astonishing Xuanming Qi flowing through the meridians of his hands, filling his lungs with energy all of a sudden. Obviously the source of the true energy is behind the door, and it is indeed not something a mortal can bear.

  He tried pushing it, but the door didn't move at all. Now there was only one silver key left in Li Pan's hand. He was worried that he wouldn't be able to come back after cheating, and he was quite confused for a while.

  But after thinking about it, Li Pan still didn't want to go in vain. Anyway, Xuan Ming had plenty of energy, so he sat down at the door, recited the Heart Sutra silently, projected his soul, and tried to explore the other side of the door.

  It's very fast, it's here in a flash.

  In Yuanshen's vision, Li Pan could clearly perceive the layout of the closed laboratory on the other side of the door.

  This is also a laboratory, but it has a built-in special biological petri dish, and the furnace is like a closed boiler. There is something stored in the furnace, which should be some kind of genetic prototype or biological sample. The rich and pure Xuanming Qi was released by the things in the furnace.

  To Li Pan, the objects in the furnace were like a huge ice sun. Just the cold air radiated could freeze the world.

  The things in this furnace are probably monsters collected by the company. This thing is like some kind of Xuanming Zhenqi nuclear reactor, which is endless and fills the entire internal space of the base with Xuanming Zhenqi.

  If he were an ordinary person, in such a high-concentration zhenqi environment, he would most likely be like this person on the ground, frozen into an ice sculpture, and broken at the cellular level if he fell to pieces.

  Of course, Li Pan feels quite comfortable. This kind of high-purity Qi is beneficial to his practice. If he can get the monster in the furnace and wear it for daily practice, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

  It's just that the timing is really not good now. Not only does it have to open the sealed door, it seems that it also has to open the sealed equipment, and even if it gets something, it may be a huge source of radiation. Not only will it directly change the environment, but it will definitely be discovered by the company titan above. And it is obvious that other people in HAYABUSA will definitely not be able to withstand the invasion of this level of Xuanming Zhenqi.

  After thinking for a moment, Li Pan decided to give up for the time being and leave this monster alone. Anyway, he was almost at the fifth level. After Jiuyin's fifth level, he would find a time to come over and take out the monster by himself, and then use this piece of equipment. Wouldn't it be great to see Xuanming monsters attacking the Sixth Revolution!
  So not only did he not take away the monsters, Li Pan also drew talisman formations on the spot and drew some spirit-gathering magic formations in the laboratory to seal the entire Xuan Ming Qi to prevent it from leaking too much and attracting the company's attention.

  When I have time, I can go to my brother and learn how to decorate. Maybe I can just use this place as a paradise to practice in the future.

  After finishing the work here, Li Pan caught up with Shiba, who had almost moved the cargo into the cabin.

  "It's so slow, boss. Once you sign the warehousing form, I'll send it to the company for review." "

  It's here, it's here, don't worry."

  Li Panle signed happily, ah, eighty billion, eighty billion, my eight Ten billion is in hand!

  After scanning and uploading the document to Shiba, Li Pan went to the entrance of the warehouse and took a look at his eyes. The red light on the control panel flashed twice.

  Still a red light.

  Li Pan, "?"

  Li Pan took the photo again.

  Still a red light.

  "What's going on? Is there bad contact?"

  Li Pan was confused. He even took off his helmet?

  Base Truck No. 18, "Huh? Boss, the goods have been rejected!"

  Li Pan was shocked, "Nani! Impossible!?"

  Base Truck No. 18, "Really, the base has detected black oil. Impurities."

  "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I have inspected the goods! I have a test report! Is it fake? Is this a technical adjustment?"

  Li Pan's heart was shaking.

  The base truck. Eighteen directly projected the base appraisal report onto Li Pan's face.

  "It is said that the pollution of unknown energy in the environment was detected, causing the black oil to be penetrated and no longer usable." "

  What, the pollution of unknown energy in the environment... Holy shit!?"

  Li Pan suddenly thought of something, Immediately shocked! He rushed to the container, opened a barrel of black oil and picked it up for a look.

  It’s not that someone is tricking him, it’s really polluted.

  The black oil had begun to crystallize, and the substance in the bottle turned directly into something pure white, like ice cream. It's white on the outside and black in the middle, and it's still growing and spreading, looking like a lump of Rioli.

  Li Pan poured out a little and rubbed it in his palms.

  Well, it’s Xuan Ming’s true energy.

  Xuan Ming's true energy merged with the black oil and turned into some kind of crystal.

  It's over.

  Eighty billion.

  It's all over...

  "Oh my God!"

  Li Pan almost wanted to spit out a mouthful of blood.

  Hard to guard against! It’s impossible to guard against it! !
  Li Pan collapsed on the ground, unable to get up.

  However, the high-purity Xuanming crystal in his hand melted in Li Pan's palm and was sucked into his body. His skill was greatly enhanced...

  Wow, it's so useful! My money!
  Li Pan jumped up again and shouted at the console,

  "This is a problem with the base! It was a trap from the previous session! And what's the big deal if it's a little polluted! It can be used anyway! It's all used for blending Ammunition, these can be used! That’s not what the hexagram says!!!”

  The red light on the console flashed, but there was no response at all.

  Well, after all, what they want is black oil. If the goods are wrong, it’s okay if the warehouse refuses to accept them.

  But 80 billion! That adds up to 120 billion! Don't be so deceptive!
  Li Pan couldn't take it anymore. He danced wildly and rolled on the ground, leaving slap marks all over the alloy floor of the warehouse door.

  Base truck Shiba had to wait for his mental illness to subside a little before he said angrily,
  "Boss, the company asked you to take the garbage back. The storage space is limited and takes up special space..."

  Rubbish, rubbish! ? ? Oh shit—! ! !
  Li Pan is going crazy. My eighty billion, one hundred and sixty bottles of black...huh? No...

  there are still sixteen bottles on board.

  Li Pan wiped his face to regain his composure.

  Calm down, calm down, sixteen bottles is exactly 8 billion, at least you won't owe the company money. As long as we can continue to trade with the Jinsen Chamber of Commerce, there is still a chance.

  And although the company won't accept these 144 bottles, it doesn't mean they are worthless.

  After all, black oil is originally used to absorb energy from other worlds and make ammunition, isn't it?

  Although this black oil is now impure, it does contain a high concentration of Xuan Ming Qi. If the technical department can develop a use for it, maybe it can still make some Xuan Ming flow ammunition or something, and find a way to digest it. It fell!
  "Take it away, take it away!" Li Pan gritted his teeth, "Thirty years from Hexi and thirty years from Hedong, don't bully young people into poverty! If you don't accept it today, it won't be the same price in the future! Let's go!" Eighteen, "...

  Boss I have to move the goods out first..."

  So Li Pan shed tears in his heart, and waited for Shiba to move the goods back, then got in the truck and pulled his 72 billion goods back to the HAYABUSA.

  Fortunately, the cruise stopped on the surface, and at least the sixteen bottles of black oil were not affected. It also left eight billion opportunities for Li Pan.

  It's a good thing that he didn't take the monster, otherwise he would have really lost a lot...

  "0791 Callisto Base was contaminated by monster energy..."

  This situation suddenly appeared, and the local company's officials also held an emergency meeting.

  0113012 complained,
  "It's such a waste, so much black oil! And if this happens, we won't be able to send black oil to Calisto Base for blending in the future."

  Li Pan looked numb.

  01032 said, "Submit the application. It can be sent to Neptune for processing temporarily. However, considering that the Holy Grail bidding will take a long time, it is best for you to find a suitable local weapons laboratory to process the black oil." Li Pan did not want to speak

  .

  0113007 said, "Anyway, bring two bottles and let me take a look. Logically speaking, the black oil packaging bottles are specially customized and will not penetrate, but it seems that the contaminants have frozen the bottle. Maybe it is because it is about to expire. Extraordinarily active, but that's not necessarily the case. We have to analyze the monster's energy specifically."

  Li Pan felt a glimmer of hope.

  0113012 said, "But it's one thing to carry sixteen bottles of black oil. Now if you bring so much cargo to the earth, it will definitely be reported to the customs. Now we don't know what is in that bottle, and there is no way it can pass the quarantine review. .

  Even if you use the induced stance to jump, you will not be able to escape the LEOPORT scan. You will definitely be caught and may be sentenced to smuggling."

  Li Pan rubbed his face and thought about the operation of the Red Tengu,

  "Then let's smuggle. , instead of entering the port directly, use stealth mode to sneak into orbit and airdrop the container to the earth."

  0113012 nodded, "This operation is possible, but it will definitely be discovered by other companies, and the fleet cannot directly target the earth. The cargo will be lowered to the surface, which is safe. There's no guarantee. Maybe other bidding companies will attack."

  Li Pan didn't care, "Come on, I'll just relieve the fire."

  0113007 said, "Transport carefully and handle with care to avoid secondary pollution and leakage. . In addition, the support troops have completed customs clearance. If there is time, they will also support you."

  After finalizing the details and confirming the coordinates, Li Pan immediately arranged for action.

  HAYABUSA's original plan was to use the inducement position to jump to the moon, then sail in stealth to the earth's orbit for airdrop, and then return to LEO-PORT for repairs. When ready, he would bring more people with him to Ceres to get a chain-saw-level treasure chest, and try to get back as soon as possible. Waves of blood. Nana will be responsible for the specific arrangements.

  And Li Pan will land on the earth along with the container.

  No matter what, the last sixteen bottles must not be lost. Li Pan carefully found an alloy suitcase to pack them. They were filled with charms to shield the aura and must not be contaminated again.

  Fortunately, these Xuanming-black oil crystals are inexplicable garbage to the company, but they are actually quite useful to Li Pan.

  Because this thing can be used as a casting material. Mix it with water, drink some cool baboon, spit it out, and mix it before you can use it to draw talisman. With the half-life of the black oil itself, the Xuan Ming Qi will continue to evaporate steadily, maintaining The charm was so effective that he didn't need to break off a tooth and dip it in blood every time.

  Alas, that is 50 million bottles of stuff after all.

  If it doesn't work, I can only use it by myself with tears in my eyes. So he put on his airborne armor, climbed on the container, and dropped directly into the atmosphere from HAYABUSA.

  In fact, there are a large number of radar turrets, missiles and drones deployed in the earth's low-orbit defense circle, and they are directly connected to the traffic management system and public safety system. Unless it is really the kind of top-notch stealth technology, anything entering the atmosphere will be detected.

  But ultimately any technological device requires humans to operate it. So Orange, on behalf of Panlong Construction, went to LEOPORT and gave a red envelope of two million to the customs. Li Pan and his container were able to enter the country smoothly. The outer layer of insulation was automatically peeled off, the parachute was opened, and with the help of a disposable rocket, it slowly Slowly falling into the vast wasteland on the surface.

  After all, it's smuggling. It's good if they let you land on Earth. Of course, it's impossible to actually give you direct access to the Night City. After all, if a nuclear bomb is put in the container for you, no one can afford the responsibility. So we can only land in no man's land.

  On the ground, the closer to a city center like Night City, the denser the population becomes. Large and small land blocks have long been purchased by various companies and divided into private territories. It is not easy to find an airdrop location.

  As a result, Li Pan found out through satellite positioning that this wasteland was almost three hundred kilometers away from the City of Night, and he was speechless.

  Fortunately, it didn't take long before ghostly screams came from all directions.

  Li Pan stood on the container and took a look. It turned out to be a convoy of homeless people in the wasteland. These bankrupt exiles and criminals were staring into space day and night. People also knew very well that when the container was dropped, there was something wrong. The company was smuggling, and they immediately drove into a large combat trailer. Hundreds of will-o'-the-wisp boys led the way, raising huge clouds of smoke and howling, and rushed over to grab the goods.

  Li Pan was also overjoyed, jumped over, rushed into the crowd, picked up the truck, and jumped back again.

  The homeless people stared up at Superman jumping around in stunned silence. There was a sudden brake, and many motorcycles collided with each other and fell into a pile.

  Li Pan jumped back, dumped the truck driver whose hair was dyed seven colors with paint, put down the truck, and carefully placed the container on the truck.

  "Twenty thousand yuan, sell me the car."

  The driver said, "...Why? Can't you fly by yourself?"

  Li Pan said, "Stop talking nonsense, I'm not selling it."

  "No!" The driver was quite stubborn, " My car is my life!"

  Li Pan glared at him, "For those two thousand yuan, help me deliver it to the Night City. My goods cannot be damaged. Maybe something will happen..." The

  driver immediately jumped up and said with a smile. , "Master! Don't worry! I can drive steadily!"

  So after a while, I saw the driver with colorful hair driving the truck and dragging the container back. The superman was still sitting in the passenger seat, and the homeless people had to knock him over. The local motorcycle helped him up, and he dispersed in frustration.
