"He stole some of our food before. It should be the same as before in a short period of time, and he will not come again..." said the pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"Yes, I think so too, but we still have to set a trap. No one can guarantee that he will not come to our warehouse to steal things again in the past few days." said the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain.
"Yeah." The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded, then picked up the tea cup and took another sip of water.
"By the way, I forgot to ask." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain suddenly said.
"What?" The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead put down the water glass in his hand and looked at his friend in confusion.
"Is the place where you found the footprints far from our place?" asked the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain.
"That place is more than ten kilometers away from us." The captain of the pig-headed man with a brown birthmark on his forehead thought carefully and gave an approximate distance.
When the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain heard this, he raised his hand and touched his chin, thought carefully for a while, and then said, "More than ten kilometers away from us is not that far."
"Yes." said the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"Those Blue Star people are equipped with flying spiritual weapons, and they patrol the ground from high altitudes. They can patrol a range of more than ten kilometers very quickly.
If they start a search later, they will probably find our place." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain said with a frown.
"That's true. So what should we do? Give up this camp and settle elsewhere?" asked the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain shook his head and said, "Abandoning the camp and finding a new place to build another camp is impossible in such bad weather."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead turned his head when he heard this and looked out the window. The sky outside was so dark that it was impossible to see his head at a glance.
Feather-like snowflakes fell one after another from the cloudy sky, and the cold wind blew, causing the snowflakes to fly randomly.
In such bad weather, if the pig-headed warriors choose to abandon the camp and build a new camp elsewhere, it will be impossible.
"Is there any solution?" The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked away and asked his friend.
"A way..." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain thought for a while, and then said with a long sigh, "I can't think of a way to deal with it at the moment..."
"Then we can only try to reduce the frequency of outings as much as possible, lest those Blue Star people really come looking for us and find clues..." said the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"Yes, that's the only way it can be." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain said, and then he added another sentence.
"The assumptions we made just now are all based on the worst-case scenario. The actual development will definitely not be what we thought, so there is no need to worry too much."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead couldn't help but smile after hearing what his friend said.
Then he nodded and said, "You are right, we cannot be as unlucky as we just imagined."
The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain smiled, and then said, "The weather has become so bad now, and it will last for a long time, so we are safe in the short term."
"Based on past experience, it should be like this..." said the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"When you came back this time, did you go to the frozen lake to check?" asked the handsome pig-headed logistics captain.
"Not today. If something like that happened, I hurried back. When I go out tomorrow, I will check again." said the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
The two of them chatted and drank hot tea, and time passed quickly.
"call……"
"Crunch, crunch, crunch..."
There are many tall trees growing in the entrance area of the valley where the Pig Head Camp is located.
Due to the arrival of the cold wave, these large trees that were originally lush and leafy have now become bare. When the cold wind blows, they are constantly swaying, and the sound they make continues to spread to the surroundings.
A huge white squirrel emerged from the snow, quickly climbed up a swaying bare tree, and then looked towards the pig-headed camp.
"Zhizhizhi..."
Not long ago, this huge white squirrel sneaked into the pig-headed camp and stole some food. Today it came to explore the pig-headed camp again.
However, this huge white squirrel had already stolen food before, and there would be no shortage of food in the short term, so he did not think of sneaking into the pig-headed camp again.
The reason why it appears near the pig-headed camp now is because this huge white squirrel wants to observe how the pig-headed men in the camp will react after the food is lost.
"Zhizhizhi..."
After looking around for a while, I didn't notice much change in the pig-headed camp, which surprised the huge white squirrel.
In its opinion, the weather is very bad at the moment and food is very important. Now that the food is stolen, these pig-headed men should be furious and start setting more traps in the camp to catch the thieves.
However, there are no changes in the pig-headed camp now, which is really strange.
The huge white squirrel, which had no clue at all, stopped observing the pig-headed camp. It retracted its gaze, climbed down from the swaying bare tree, and ran quickly out of the valley.
The snow on the ground has not been cleared, so it accumulates very thickly.
If a pig-headed warrior walks in such snow, his feet will sink deeply into the snow every time he takes a step.
At this moment, the huge white squirrel was running on the snow, walking as fast as flying, without sinking into the snow at all.
After a while, the giant squirrel that stole the food from the pig-headed warehouse ran out of the valley.
He stopped in the snow outside the valley and looked toward the frozen lake in the distance.
After a while, it stopped staying in place and ran quickly in a certain direction, disappearing into the white snow in a few seconds.
Before the cold wave came, the lake outside the valley was rippling with blue waves and full of life.
At this moment, the vast lake has completely changed its appearance. The plants on the shore of the lake are all frozen, and there is no green at all.
Moreover, the rippling blue lake has frozen due to the cold weather.
"boom."
Suddenly, the frozen lake made a sound, and when the sound was heard, a black shadow appeared below the frozen lake, hitting the frozen lake surface every once in a while.
"call……"
The sky is getting darker and darker, the snowflakes falling from the cloudy sky are becoming more rapid, and the wind is becoming very fierce.
If you feel it carefully, you will find that the temperature now is a few degrees lower than before.
"boom."
The huge black shadow in the lake persists in hitting the frozen lake. However, due to the weather, the lake is covered with thick ice. No matter how hard this huge black shadow tries, it cannot break the ice.
…………
In the stronghold built by humans, many investigators looked at the bad weather changes outside, with depressed expressions on their faces.
"When the wind and snow stopped earlier, I thought the sun would come out, but it didn't come out at all," said a girl with long hair shawl.
"Yes! I haven't seen the sun for a long time. It would be great if it could come out for a while." said a girl with short ear-length hair.
"The cold wave will last for a long time, and the sun will never be seen, which will affect my mood." The investigator wearing glasses raised his hand to push the frame on the bridge of his nose and said.
"In a few days, a group of people who came here on business trips will be able to go back. Then they can see the sun, which is really enviable." said the investigator holding a cookie in his hand.
"We can go back next month, just wait patiently... Why do you keep snacks in your hands? You will have dinner soon." said the investigator wearing a thick winter coat.
"Because I'm hungry! Don't worry! Although I've eaten a lot of snacks, I can still eat a lot when I have dinner later." The investigator holding a biscuit in his hand said with a smile, and then put the biscuit in his hand.
Throw it into your mouth.
"Okay, everyone, don't gather here anymore. While there is still time for dinner, let's go to the sports hall to play basketball!" The muscular investigator said with a smile, inviting his colleagues to play basketball together.
The convoy that came to this base to deliver supplies began its return journey after unloading the goods.
"The wind and snow are getting stronger now. Please be careful on the way back." The person in charge of the base said to the drivers and masters who were about to return.
Then, the truck transporting supplies started, left the human stronghold, and drove back to their return destination in an orderly manner.
After the convoy disappeared in the snow, the head of the stronghold took his assistant back towards the office.
After a while, in the warm office, the head of the stronghold and his assistant were sitting on the sofa, drinking tea and chatting about some things.
"In addition to sending us some necessary supplies this time, the convoy also sent us several defensive weapons, which are said to be the latest defensive weapons developed by the Psionics Research Institute," the assistant said.
"Yes." The person in charge of the stronghold nodded, and then began to introduce the several defensive spiritual weapons, "Although the number is a little small, the defensive effect of those defensive spiritual weapons is very strong. After activation, it can withstand the peak of the third level.
The alien beast strikes with all its strength."
"These defensive spiritual weapons are quite powerful. When the weather gets better, we will send out a search team to bring those new spiritual weapons so that we can explore further afield." The assistant said.
"The exploration will be slowed down for the time being. We will start again after the cold wave has completely passed." said the person in charge of the stronghold.
"Buzz."
While the two investigators were chatting, a spiritual weapon placed on the desk suddenly trembled, and then glowed with a pale golden light.
The psychic energy fluctuations spread rapidly around, and the head of the stronghold and his assistant, who were sitting on the sofa chatting, immediately noticed the movement of the spiritual weapon.
"There is movement in the communication device. It should be some message from the base camp." The assistant said, looking at the trembling communication device on the desk.
"Yeah." The person in charge of the stronghold nodded, then put down the water glass in his hand, got up and walked to the desk.
There is a rectangular metal object on the table. Now the metal object has stopped trembling, but a pale golden light appears on the surface, and it continues to emit psychic energy fluctuations around it.
The person in charge of the stronghold stretched out his hand to touch the trembling communication device, and saw a pale golden light appear on his fingertips, and then a message appeared out of thin air in his mind.
After a while, the person in charge of the stronghold withdrew his right hand that was touching the communication device.
The communication device glowing with pale golden light returned to calm.
"What message did the base camp send us?" the assistant came to the person in charge of the stronghold and asked.
"Information came from the base camp, saying that a team went out to search at a stronghold near us and found a vein containing a large amount of spiritual stones." The person in charge of the stronghold said.
"A vein containing a large amount of spiritual stones? That would be great. If such a vein of spiritual stones is found, it can bring us a large amount of spiritual stones." The assistant said excitedly.
"Yes." The person in charge of the stronghold nodded, with a happy face on his face, but he was not as excited as his assistant.
"What's wrong, is there something wrong with that spirit stone vein?" At this time, the assistant also noticed that the expression on his partner's face was strange, and asked immediately.
"The location of the spirit stone vein is relatively remote, and it is not easy to mine it. Moreover, according to the information brought back by the search team, there is still a lot of miasma in the location of the spirit stone vein." The person in charge of the stronghold said.
The assistant was very surprised when he heard this, "The weather is so bad now and the ground is covered with thick snow. Why is there still miasma?"
"Although it's freezing cold and snowing heavily, there are many natural hot spring pools where the spirit stone veins were discovered, which keeps the local temperature from being very low," said the person in charge of the base.
"That's right, no wonder there is still miasma." The assistant nodded, and then he asked, "Does the base camp send such a message to us to send some manpower to that stronghold for support?"
The person in charge of the stronghold nodded and said, "Yes, if it is other resources, just wait patiently until the cold wave passes before mining them.
However, the resource point discovered is a spirit stone vein, which contains a large amount of spirit stones. If we wait until the cold wave has passed before developing it, some changes may occur.
So the base camp wants us to send some people to that stronghold to support it, and then other strongholds will also send people there."
The assistant said, "Then I will go and arrange the list of personnel to go to support now."
"Yeah." The person in charge of the stronghold nodded.
