The Death List Novel - Chapter 560
Chapter 560 Fallacy
The patrol team was indeed the elite Apostle. Apart from a slight deviation in judging the opponent’s composition, they had treated Qin Mei’s newly formed miscellaneous team as the Apostle Monument. There was nothing wrong with their general analysis.
The members of the Inspector Team were outstanding amongst the mid-and low-tier apostles, but after the collapse of the Light Team, the plates left behind by the Order-keeping Front were very large, and the Primordial Chaos and the Apostle Filling Tombstone were not enough to pursue the Inspector Team at the same time.
Moreover, although the two alliances were trying to rob the elite Apostle, there were some differences in their ideas about recruiting new members. At the very least, people like Robin would not choose Chaos if they had a choice. Both sides had their own goals and tacitly avoided confrontation.
After nearly a week of full preparation, the Attack had largely erased all traces of the battle in the “Moon Lake” area. The Moon Lake was once again filled with clear and translucent lake water. The transplanted aquatic creatures once again restored the vitality of the lake region, and even the lush and primitive rainforest landscapes of the lakeside had been restored.
This was actually based on what Qin Lun had suggested back then, because he had suggested that the Attack should be hidden deep underground in the Arachne base.
The bottom of the Lunar Lake itself was filled with loose mud. Up to the rock layer deep in the earth’s crust, there was a depth of a few kilometers that the Attack could “drill” into. This depth could not be said to be completely undetectable, but as long as the enemy did not “sneak” deep underground, they could roughly avoid all scientific and technological means of reconnaissance.
After Qin Lun’s suggestion was put forward, it wasn’t that no one didn’t question it, but after hearing his explanation, everyone still agreed to the plan. The main reason is that this place is not only doubly confusing, but also more aggressive than other hidden places.
There was no need for Qin Lun to explain to everyone that it was even more aggressive. After all, the Apostle team that had rushed over would discover the arachne base sooner or later. This place would become the eye of a storm for a series of follow-up events. If the patrol team wanted to reap the benefits of being a fisherman in the four chaotic battles, they couldn’t be too far away from the core area.
Otherwise, even if the other three guilds were to form a group and wait for the Attack to emerge from a certain deep sea, they would have died a long time ago. They would have run away and missed the best opportunity to participate in the battle.
So what do you mean by double confusion? The Inspector Team was an elite team, could the other three teams be idiots? Seeing the tattered arachnid base like that, wouldn’t he have thought that there was something strange beneath the ground?
Of course not! At the beginning of Qin Lun’s suggestion, his comrades’ doubts were focused on this. Although the Storm Eye was indeed a key war zone, the probability of being discovered was similarly high. Even if he was hiding deep underground, it would be difficult for him to rely on other people’s mistakes to escape reconnaissance.
Thus, Qin Lun casually pointed out why no one had “sneaked” into the depths of the ground to investigate the enemy after destroying the arachnid base.
Qin Lun’s question caused everyone to look at each other. Soon, some of their companions retorted that the arachnid base itself was at the bottom of the Moon Lake. They had already “dived” once. Deep underground? There seems no need to be so exaggerated!
Hearing this answer, Qin Lun finally smiled. Yes, as long as it is an intelligent creature, it must have a certain amount of logical thinking, but logical thinking usually has blind spots. In other words, there was a limit to what one could do with their brains.
Cosmic air warfare forced Apostle to step up its reconnaissance efforts, turning the two-dimensional battle on the ground into a three-dimensional one. However, even with his IQ, he still needed Alex’s reminder to detect the blind spots in his combat habits.
The other guilds that had high-level Apostle entered this world even later. No matter how strong they were, they were inferior to them in terms of adaptability. There was no doubt about that.
Perhaps the change in the laws of battle had allowed them to strengthen their stereoscopic surveillance, but their combat habits would definitely not be easy to change. With these people’s shrewdness, they would definitely be able to discover the arachnid base. However, if even they thought that they had already “dived” once and did not need to explore the underground of Moon Lake, then no one else would be able to do so.
Qin Lun’s method was to restore the Moon Lake to its “original appearance” and repair the arachne base to at least erase the artillery shelling marks on the top. This plan seemed a bit ridiculous, but after everyone had studied it, they discovered that it was very feasible.
The Attack was not a research ship, but the Independent Battleship also had a technology team. Giese technology has a week to restore the simple food chain to Moon Lake, thanks to artificial rainfall and “ecological transport.” At the very least, without further study, Moon Lake would still be a “normal” large lake.
When Apostle of the other guilds “sneaked” into a Moon Lake that looked like an underwater world and saw the damaged arachnid base, they naturally thought that this place had been broken by another guild.
However, the restoration of the original environment of New Moon Lake would make them unable to realize that their opponent had used such an arrogant method as the universe shelling in a short period of time. It would only be judged that the enemy had forcefully broken through to the Zerg base by relying on personal force. This was also the most common practice in Apostle.
If there was a deviation in understanding, one would ignore the changes in the environment. Thus, one would never imagine that the entire Moon Lake had once been evaporated. Now, the “original” underwater environment had become the best cover for the Attack to hide underground.
In fact, after the artificial rainfall was carried out, the traces of battle in the Moon Lake’s original lakeside region were largely washed away. Looking down from the sky, apart from the fact that the area was larger, it was no different from before, causing the inspectors’ team to be amazed.
However, what the Apostle didn’t expect was that their performance would fall into the eyes of their Keith companions and be looked down upon instead. The reason was very simple. In the eyes of Apostle, Kieran’s plan was a fantastic idea, but in the eyes of Giese, it was the most ordinary planetary guerrilla tactic.
In the Third Cosmos Age, the Giants, who had once conquered the entire Galaxy, had witnessed many of these tactics. When they invaded other planets of life, not to mention changing the heavens and earth to such an extent, even the natives who had moved their entire race into the earth’s crust and fought with the invaders for centuries had seen it.
If there was enough time, it would be a universe warship of the same level as Faith attacking Planet X-352. Giese’s first task was to scan the entire earth’s crust and send a drill ship through the earth’s crust to the core, smashing the entire planet like a hammer that smashed a walnut, removing the flesh from it.
However, considering the duration of this battle, as well as the participants from Apostle, Dong Yue and Attack’s Giese Staff Committee, they reluctantly approved of Qin Lun’s “crude plan.”
However, no matter how perfect the arrangement was, if the enemy did not cooperate, it would become a chicken rib!
On the fifth day after Attack covered the surface of Planet X-352 with mini detectors and hid underground, the twelfth day after Qin Lun and the others had taken over the Zerg base, the enemy team finally arrived.
Watching Jannamer’s matured body, which was almost obscured by the sun and completely obscured by the sunlight on the projection screen, the patrol team looked at each other in confusion as well as fear.
In their judgement, the arachnids were the first to arrive. After all, Planet X-352 itself was the forward base of the Zerg race. It should not be far from the headquarters of the planet Bug, and its reaction would be the most timely.
Another crucial problem was that after waiting for twelve whole days, the Attack had actually only waited for one guest. The other two Apostle teams were nowhere to be found, and they were far from the three groups they had originally imagined.
“Is it because we haven’t figured it out?”
Even though he knew that Qin Lun had been pretending to be confused, Robin still couldn’t help but find him, staring at him with a pair of beautiful eyes, as if he wouldn’t leave without an answer.
“I’m not an Almighty God, I don’t have answers to all questions!” Qin Lun leisurely sipped his tea and said indifferently.
Just as Robin thought he was going to play dumb again, Qin Lun frowned and said, “We understand that this is a four-team competition. Those people will know that caution is perfectly understandable. Unless something happens that we don’t understand yet, you don’t have to worry too much.”
The situation is not out of control, Chaos or the Apostle Monument is chasing us, mainly for the sake of poaching. We are the weaker side. If the other side has the advantage in strength, they will not fight against the trend. “Even if the situation is unfavorable to us, the team members will not be convinced. They will lose without a fight, and it will only benefit us if time goes on.”
“I understand this logic, but I don’t know why, but ever since Jannamer appeared, I’ve been feeling a lot of panic in my heart!” Robin murmured, “I’ve been feeling a little uneasy since I hid underground, but now this feeling is even more obvious.”
“Always?” Qin Lun raised his eyebrows slightly, put down his teacup and stood up from his chair. He was no longer as calm as before and walked back and forth anxiously. “After you entered this world, the few combat abilities you exchanged were not worth mentioning. However, your psychic senses had reached the warship level … Why didn’t you tell me earlier if you had a feeling?”
“At that time, we had already wasted a week setting up. I don’t want to make everyone feel doubtful just because of the faint worry!” Robin gritted his teeth and whispered, “Besides, this is just a feeling that even I am uncertain. My suspicions are already very serious!”
At this moment, Qin Lun did not listen to Robin’s words. He stared at the white wall in front of him and was stunned. After a while, he turned around and said with a serious expression, “We still lack similar adventures. We always think about the war between the universes in the way Apostle fought.” “Perhaps I have also neglected some aspects. If you invite Dong Yue and the others over, I want to ask you something!”
Just as Qin Lun and the others were puzzled that the other two teams hadn’t arrived at the X-352, a huge battleship was moored in the cosmic starry sky about 10,000 light seconds away from the planet.
The warship looked like a fat caterpillar. The surface of his body was covered in mottled spots, with dense fluff. From beginning to end, he looked like a drum. The appearance of his head and tail was almost the same, except that there were a few soft antennae on his head.
“My lord, why don’t you enter the planetary base?” Black asked doubtfully.
Gan Luo glanced at the subordinate whom he liked and revealed a mysterious smile. No wonder Black was surprised. His style had always been aggression like fire. The harder the situation, the stronger the desire to fight. It was rare for him to become the cautious he was now.
‘”Black, did you know? The bug mother told me that the bugs had actually obtained the X-352 base for a long time. However, not only did they not increase their forces, they even evacuated most of the bugs there not long ago!” Gan Luo said meaningfully.
“And the universe is more mysterious than most of us imagine. Who told you that the X-352 is a planet?!”
“My lord, what do you mean” Black immediately realized something and his eyes widened.
“Right now, there should be at least two Apostle teams at the X-352, right?” Gan Luo grinned and laughed hoarsely, “Perhaps we’ll have a good show soon!”
