Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1453
Chapter 1453 Catching a Big Fish
Meng Chao did not answer the middle-aged man’s question.
He turned and ran. The enemy could discover the doctor’s abnormality at any time, so they had to seize every minute.
Meng Chao returned to the container at lightning speed.
He had gently twined two strands of hair at the entrance of the container earlier. Neither of them showed any signs of moving or breaking.
The mud on the ground was still the same as when he left.
Through the dim light, the female doctor could be seen lying on the stretcher like a dead snake. She could not even move an eyelash. Meng Chao held his breath and listened for three seconds. After making sure that there was no breathing or heartbeat from a third person in the container, he crawled in. In order to lock onto the owner of the mysterious number, he had to dial the number again from a close enough distance.
The problem was that once he removed the crystal communicator from the female doctor’s wrist and lost the female doctor’s physiological parameters, the crystal communicator would not be able to be activated and might even automatically alert the enemy.
In order to be absolutely safe, the enemy had to be racking their brains.
Meng Chao did not have time to think of a more ingenious way to crack it.
He could only use the simplest and most violent method.
Meng Chao directly carried the unconscious female doctor on his shoulders along with the crystal communicator.
The female doctor weighed at most a hundred pounds.
For a monster-level player like him who could carry an Apocalyptic Beast and do squats, after rounding it up, her weight was about zero.
The temporary dam was located at the mouth of the valley closest to the branch of the Raging Tiger River.
Meng Chao climbed along the left side of the valley and soon reached halfway up the mountain.
From there, one could clearly see the bustling crowd on the brightly lit temporary dam.
Large groups of strong workers were waving special engineering mechanical arms, which were like metal crab pincers. They were stacking up the various types of building materials that were constantly being transported up to the temporary dam. There were also quite a number of people working together, carrying thick, quick-drying material nozzles and spraying a large amount of concrete-like material onto the surface of the temporary dam.
A layer of steel plating was then placed on the surface of the quick-drying material.
It formed an iron wall that was strong enough to withstand floods and fierce beasts.
Everyone surrounded the bustling work site. They were unfolding blueprints, waving their communication devices, having loud discussions, and giving commands. Naturally, they were the crystal mine’s high-level management personnel.
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes. His gaze was as sharp as the scope of a sniper rifle.
From hundreds of meters away, he scanned the faces of seven or eight high-level managers clearly. Then, Meng Chao used the female doctor’s iris information to unlock her crystal communicator again and dialed the number without a name.
A monotonous dial tone came from the crystal communicator.
Meng Chao waited patiently
After a full seven to eight seconds, someone finally picked up the fatal call.
The problem was that at least four to five of the seven to eight high-level managers on the temporary dam were talking loudly into the crystal communicator. They were listening to and reporting the latest situation, as well as contacting manpower and collecting materials to deploy the next defense and rescue strategy.
Besides, most of them were wearing wireless earphones, and they could pick up and hang up the communicator without raising their arms. It was impossible for Meng Chao to determine who among the senior managers had answered the call just from their movements.
Meng Chao had no choice but to put everything on the line.
“Something’s wrong.”
He pressed the two fingers of his left hand gently on his throat muscles, emitting high-frequency vibrations that could not be recognized by the naked eye. Using the vibration of his throat muscles, he perfectly simulated the female doctor’s slightly hoarse but somewhat exasperated voice, “Someone saved that guy!”
The communication channel went silent.
However, Meng Chao could keenly hear that the breathing on the other side had suddenly become hurried.
At the same time, he noticed that the several senior managers, who were talking loudly into their earphones and standing in the middle, were looking at the person with the highest status among them. He was dressed in rather plain clothes and was no different from a mining engineer, but he had a drastic change in expression. It looked like he was almost shouting on the spot.
Using his extraordinary Deity realm vision, Meng Chao could even see sweat beads the size of soybeans instantly seeping out of the guy’s forehead. They reflected the dazzling lights of dozens of searchlights inside and outside the temporary dam.
The few managers around that guy had noticed his anger and panic. They all stopped the call and looked at him curiously.
The senior manager calmed down, took a deep breath, and waved his hand to indicate that everything was “okay.” He did not respond to the female doctor’s request for help.
Instead, he cut off communications cleanly.
Then, he lowered his head and gave the managers around him a few instructions.
Then, he left the temporary dam in a hurry. Meng Chao noticed that the guy was walking in a panic. As he went down the stairs, he took two steps at a time… Well, every step he took allowed him to cross four or five steps. He did not care about the surprised gazes of the people around him.
With the guy’s status as someone who was admired by many high-level managers, the way he was walking made him look like he was running away.
Meng Chao did not wait for the guy to call him back.
He dialed his number again and found that his phone had already been switched off.
Meng Chao realized that he had revealed a flaw.
The other party had already smelled danger and knew that the person dialing was not the real female doctor. Perhaps, when the enemies communicated with each other, they had a special set of secret signals.
Even if they encountered an emergency situation, they still had a way to first confirm each other’s identities.
Nevertheless, Meng Chao was not annoyed.
At least, he had caught a big fish!
Meng Chao left the female doctor on the spot.
He was not stupid enough to do anything to her, such as smearing the tracking powder from Picturesque Orchid Lake that only he could smell.
Since the other party already knew that the female doctor had fallen into his hands, they would not bring her back to their lair so easily.
They might even carry out the most thorough extraction and analysis of the traces left on her
body.
If the other party discovered that Meng Chao was carrying the secret medicine of Picturesque Orchid Lake’s witch doctor, it would not be worth it.
Meng Chao also did not try to shorten the distance between himself and the senior manager to avoid being noticed.
He just ran wildly on the mountainside. When the searchlights and everyone’s line of sight were focused elsewhere, he jumped from one highland to another like lightning. It was to ensure that his line of sight could be firmly attached to that “big fish” at all times.
Soon, he found that the guy was rolling and crawling to the parking lot under the temporary dam. Then, he jumped into an off-road tracked vehicle covered in armor.
The engine roared, and its tracks spun. The guy even forgot to turn on the headlights before he rushed out of the crystal mine.
There were rolling hills outside the crystal
mine.
The only road was muddy and fragmented because of the heavy rain.
Even though the off-road vehicle with tracks pushed its crystal engine to the limit, it was like a boat that was bumping up and down in the stormy waves.
It was still not that fast.
That gave Meng Chao a chance to take advantage of it.
Being able to go in front of the other party in advance, Meng Chao completely submerged himself in the mud. Not even his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears were exposed as he quietly waited for the other party to crush him.
Meng Chao originally thought that the other party only had one way to go.
Unexpectedly, when the caterpillar SUV was two to three hundred meters away from him, the other party suddenly braked. Then, from under the chassis, six mechanical legs that looked like giant spiders extended out.
The mechanical legs waved around with all their might.
They actually carried the SUV and climbed up the ridge on the right side of the road.
They were about to cross this hill, and Meng Chao secretly cursed.
What a cunning fox.
If he had not broken through to the Deity Realm and could not extend his vitality magnetic field hundreds of meters away to sense the movements of every grass and tree, he would have possibly been fooled by the guy, allowing him to escape!
Meng Chao replanned his tracking route.
The second time, he blocked the other party from the front.
This time, the SUV with tracks, which had climbed over the hills, did not play any tricks anymore.
It directly ran over Meng Chao’s body, which was lying in the mud.
When the two spinning tracks opened their bloody mouths and were about to shred Meng Chao’s four limbs ruthlessly, Meng Chao pulled his limbs back.
Meng Chao curled his body into a ball, and like a weightless shadow, he lightly attached himself to the SUV’s chassis.
Then, Meng Chao pressed his ears to the violently shaking chassis.
He tried his best to analyze whether or not there were other sounds mixed with the deafening roar of the engine.
Soon, after he familiarized himself with the crystal engine and blocked out the roar, he heard the senior manager’s furious and hysterical voice from the driver’s seat.
“I don’t know!
“How would I know where he came from!
“You said that you would deal with him without anyone knowing!
“I’m not panicking! “No, I can’t stay in the crystal mine anymore. The other party is already suspicious of me. Even if there’s no evidence, what if the other party doesn’t care about me and catches me and tortures me? He’ll do it! Judging from the guy’s style, he’ll definitely do it!
“F*ck, no. I’m f*cking panicking!
“Good, good. That’s good!
“I don’t know where I am. I’ve crossed several mountains in a row. The weather is a mess. The planet’s magnetic field is completely chaotic, and the car map won’t work at all.
“It’s about thirty to fifty kilometers northwest of the crystal mine, not far from the branch of the Raging Tiger River. Wait a minute, the network seems to be a little more stable now. I’ll try to restart the system and send you the coordinates.”
Hearing that, a cold glint flashed in Meng Chao’s eyes.
He could not let the guy send the coordinates to his allies!
Meng Chao could only make a move.
He gently pressed his hands on the chassis that covered the steel plate.
Next, spirit energy immediately seeped into the seemingly indestructible interior of the steel plate like a babbling stream.
It gathered into the crystal engine at the front of the vehicle, and the crystal engine immediately let out a sonorous roar.
The steering shaft and the transmission rod also began to tremble violently.
The rotational speed of the two tracks was fast and slow respectively, hence the vehicle’s pace was obviously inconsistent.
The armored SUV immediately spun around on the rough mountain road. Soon, it lost control and rolled down the slope.
