Chapter 345: Chapter 120: Shadow Base Plan!

White Hair laughed openly, drawing the attention of a group of Special Combat Soldiers, but he didn’t care in the slightest.

This kind of fun was rare, and he was ready to watch the drama unfold.

When Mu Fan saw everyone looking at him, and they had already formed several layers around him, he looked up at Croft, then around at the fellow trainees, and thought before saying, “The jet tiger insect has a range of about fifty to sixty meters. It sprays a large amount of green liquid, which is very fast and silent, and highly corrosive.”

It was his combat experience, and it was good to share it with others.

“We already have that in the database; stop beating around the bush.”

Mu Fan ignored him and continued with his own thoughts, “The jet tiger insect moves slower than the regular tiger worm, and its shell is thinner, but it still has strong resistance to physical damage.”

“Tell us how did you kill that jet tiger insect?”

Finally, his speech was forcefully interrupted. After glancing at Croft, Mu Fan spat out a few words: “Smashed it to death.”

A chill seemed to pass through the crowd.

Croft had a lump of words stuck in his throat.

Then the next second, he felt like his temples were going to explode.

What did this kid just say?

He smashed a jet tiger insect to death?

Try smashing one without wearing an exoskeleton!

He pulled out his tactical tablet, swiped a few times, and then tapped.

A holographic image projected from the tablet.

A green and brown insect appeared in the hologram, with a human standing next to it for scale.

A three-meter-long Zeg! Standing next to a human, it was a fierce beast.

Try smashing one with your bare hands.

Not to mention the corrosive poison liquid it discharges.

“You think we are fools?”

The expression on Croft’s face already showed he felt like he had been played, and the next second his fist might smash into Mu Fan’s face.

Before Mu Fan could speak, White Hair stepped forward.

“A hologram, you say? I have one too.”

Yin Shuai gently touched a button-like device on his chest, then a beam of light hit the air and unfolded into a holographic projection.

With a flick of his finger across the projection, a clip appeared before everyone.

The image flickered, clearly a first-person perspective battlefield recording.

“Mu Fan should be up ahead.”

“Right, what is this kid joking about, going to face a jet tiger insect alone?”

Two Special Combat Team members were conversing, obviously Luo Jianjin and Wolf, with White Hair behind them.

After crossing a low hill, the distant image appeared in the frame.

Bang bang bang!

A figure was holding a Zeg single-handedly, swinging and smashing it like a sack.

The leaves and branches on the ground were sent flying by the furious smashing.

“Boss… is that a jet tiger insect in his hand?”

“Indeed.”

“Holy shit.” The person filming swore.

As the camera moved closer, passing through several already decayed and dissolved areas, the people finally saw the figure in the footage clearly… and the soundless Zeg beneath his feet.

The brown-green shell, a standard jet tiger insect.

The video stopped.

White Hair put away the hologram, turned to look at Croft, his tone full of schadenfreude: “Go on, keep questioning.”

Croft, who had been ready to start a fight at the slightest provocation, suddenly found himself at a loss for words, as the jet tiger insect in the footage had been smashed to death by this kid who looked much thinner than him.

He really didn’t dare to speak again now.

“Truly worthy of being Mu Fan.” A student with a crew cut spoke up, and Mu Fan looked over to find it was Shi Sen from Capital Star.

Shi Sen was generous with his praise, and his words seemed to open the floodgates as many others finally reacted.

Mu Fan’s recent lack of arrogance was not because he had lost his strength, but because he simply hadn’t cared about it!

“You really… smashed it.” Finally, Croft mustered the courage to say something.

“I’ve already said it,” Mu Fan’s expression remained unchanged, his mind occupied with another matter as this linguistic argument held no meaning for him.

“Come back quick, Croft, the captain is calling for you!”

A loud shout came from behind as Croft finally found an excuse to hurriedly leave.

The students witnessing this scene erupted in victorious laughter as if they had won themselves.

“Mu Fan, tell us the key points in dealing with the Zeg.”

“The limbs are fragile, the central area of the eyes lacks shell protection and is a vital part, and then… I suggest using exoskeletons or Mechs in combat,” Mu Fan thought for a moment before he added the last sentence.

“Mu Fan, there’s something I need to talk to you about, let’s find a quiet place.”

At that moment, Black’s voice suddenly reached him, carrying a note of excitement.

So, Mu Fan whispered that he had something and left the crowd.

The youths once again surrounded White Hair in triumphant celebration.

Entering the exclusive dormitory of the Tiger Hunting Team, Mu Fan closed the electronic door lock and said in a low voice, “What is it?”

“Activate the projection feature of your tactical handplate.”

After executing the operation as instructed, a light screen appeared in front of him.

Then, on the screen, a metal sphere appeared, actually the avatar of Black in the Battle Net.

“Here’s some good news, I’ve officially infiltrated this base and am currently in the second level of authorization, ready to switch to the first level at any moment!” There was no sound from the image, but Black’s voice was still coming through the invisible earpiece.

Mu Fan frowned and said, “Why did you infiltrate the base?”

“It’s for a reason, which is also what I’m about to discuss with you next! It’s very important.”

Mu Fan’s expression turned serious, “Speak, later I’ll need your help analyzing something.”

“This asteroid contains metal ores and Crystal Ore far beyond expectations! The information the Military Department gave you has been deliberately modified,” Black dropped a bombshell with his first sentence.

“Don’t ask how I know, I’ve infiltrated three bases in a row and found that at the center of a triangle formed by these three bases, fifty meters underground, lies a superscale Light Computer. This is a standard in military labs! Moreover, the Light Computer’s authorization likely belongs to a Colonel in the Expeditionary Army who’s responsible for surveying all the asteroids in this belt.”

“The military’s intention might not be malevolent, but they deliberately hid the actual ore reserves. After several information cross-references, I concluded that the machinery in the three Federation bases on this planet is enough to form a perfect small-scale industrial system!”

Mu Fan looked at Black on the screen and asked, “What does this mean?”

Black typed a few words in the light screen, “You’re wise.”

Then the voice continued in his ears, “With this perfect industrial system and the rich ore deposits on this planet, plus the unique concealment it offers, this planet will become a top-secret military base for the military!”

This time, it was Mu Fan’s turn to be shocked, “You’ve invaded a military base!?”

Black’s voice sounded, “You might think your current power is enough to protect yourself, but in interstellar space, individual power is insignificant. If you want to find your biological parents and truly make your mark in the interstellar world, you will need a strong backing.”

Hearing this, Mu Fan already had a guess in his mind, but he dared not confirm it as it was too shocking.

“During my search for the Zeg Clan with you, I discovered this unique opportunity! I will temporarily reside here in this program, using vulnerabilities to produce the equipment you need on time!”

“Here, there’s a well-equipped SCV engineering vehicle production and maintenance system, there’s a precision machining workshop.”

“Your weapons, Mecha… even warships! I can output them all from here!”

“So, I and the Fighter have prepared a plan since our arrival!”

“The name of this plan is—’Shadow Base’!”
