Chapter 471: Plateau Basin
Listening to Yao Yuechuan’s answer, Fu Zongshang exhaled in relief. "Good. I will leave the arrangements to you since you understand their capabilities best."
"Understood."
Yao Yuechuan accepted the order and began organizing the fire and water element ability users into shifts based on their ability levels, energy reserves, and control proficiency—all while maintaining the fire barrier himself.
With Yao Yuechuan taking command to maintain the fire barrier and control the seawater temperature, Fu Zongshang finally had time to attend to other matters.
By evening, Shi Xuan and Long Yu spotted a plateau basin in the distance. The basin stretched a hundred kilometers wide, offering a clear view of the surroundings.
After circling the area, Shi Xuan said, "Captain, this place should be safe enough for us to spend the night."
Long Yu agreed and activated the communication device. After a beeping sound, he said, "Attention, everyone. We will land in the plateau basin in six minutes. Prepare for landing."
A few seconds later, responses came through from the other pilots. "Roger that."
Long Yu carefully surveyed the terrain below, selecting a flat area free of cracks. Once he made his decision, he transmitted the landing coordinates to the other pilots.
Six minutes later, Shi Xuan confirmed, "Landing now."
Following his words, the military transport aircraft slowly descended, eventually touching down safely. Soon, the other aircraft also landed one after another.
As the propeller stopped and the door opened, Li Zhen and the others disembarked, only to be met with strong winds and thick dust.
Caught off guard, Ding Jianfeng coughed violently as he hurriedly covered his mouth. When his cough subsided, he looked at the surroundings and muttered, "Why is there so much dust?"
Hearing this, the others quickly put on their masks before they choke on the dust.
While they were busy, Long Yu and Xu Ruihan finalized the patrol schedule.
After dinner, exhaustion overtook everyone. Too tired to care about discomfort, they lay down on the hard, dusty ground and try to sleep. Soon, the camp fell into silence, except for the occasional snore.
A few hours later, while the group slept soundly, a patrolling guard noticed lights approaching in the distance. He grabbed the night-vision binoculars from his waist and looked in their direction.
Through the night-vision binoculars, he saw a convoy of vehicles, consisting of three off-road trucks, five buses, and several motorcycles, heading toward them.
Turning to his companion, he said, "Brother, I’m going to report this to Captain Long."
The other guard had also noticed the approaching lights and nodded. "Alright."
Handing the night-vision binoculars to his companion, the guard hurried off to find Long Yu.
Finding him sleeping away from the others, the guard squatted beside Long Yu. He then reached out to wake him up, but Long Yu instinctively grabbed his wrist before opening his eyes.
Seeing that Long Yu was awake, the guard reported in a low voice, "Captain Long, a group of vehicles is approaching."
Long Yu sat up immediately at his words and asked, "How many of them?"
"Three off-road cars, five buses, and a few motorcycles." The guard replied.
Long Yu’s expression turned serious after listening to his answer, and thought, ’Anyone who could migrate to this plateau basin and travel in off-road vehicles was unlikely to be ordinary.’
Turning toward Yao Ran, who was sleeping beside him, Long Yu gently covered her with a blanket before standing up. He then said, "Let’s go."
With that, the two of them left without making a sound.
Unbeknownst to him, Yao Ran had already woken up when they were talking. She opened her eyes, sat up, rubbed them groggily, and yawned a few times. Then, after putting her blanket back into her space, she got up and followed them.
