The search team led by Su received news one after another in the afternoon.
Taking the place where the incident happened as the origin, conduct a blanket search within 500 kilometers. With the efforts of soldiers whose average ability is around the third level, this work progressed very quickly. In Su's report, Zero and the other two captains could see it. There were hardly any traces left within the range of 300 kilometers, but when the range expanded to about 400 kilometers, the search team gradually discovered some wheel marks.
When they reached the range of 500 kilometers, the search team found dense car marks. Judging from the traces, the robbery party owned no less than three four-wheel drive vehicles and more than 20 modified motorcycles. This has reached the size of a medium-sized fleet and has the ability to operate flexibly. Judging from the traces left by the convoy, the robbers went deep south of the coastline.
Although the search team continued to track, because the team passed through some city ruins in the wilderness, affected by factors such as the environment and mutated creatures, the clues were interrupted when they reached a distance of about 700 kilometers.
Although Su's report ended here, it provided a general direction for the robbers to leave for a few people. So in the combat conference room provided by George, a topographic map of the south coastline area appeared on the light screen on the wall of the conference room.
It can be seen from the topographic map that there are more urban ruins in the area south of the coastline, which has a lot to do with the fact that the southern landform is mostly plains. At the same time, in the known southern area, there are many ore veins. These mine veins are currently excavated and produced by a few large companies or chaebols, but more of them are abandoned mines left over from the old era.
It can be said that there are too many places for robbers to hide in the southern area of the plain belt. A rough statistic of the city ruins and abandoned mines shows that a few people can see no less than a hundred or even more hiding places like this.
In the turbulent era, there is no complete communication network and monitoring system like the old era. Even if the robbers hide in no man's land, they can use the above information to deduce the approximate location of the target. In the new era, as long as you are not afraid of danger and go into the wilderness, it is not easy to find the target. What's more, judging from the size of the opponent's convoy, this team can deal with general dangerous incidents and have a certain amount of food supply.
In other words, even if a lot of manpower and material resources are used to search for possible hiding spots one by one. Even if the robbers don't move, it will take at least three to five months to find them.
Obviously, Zero and the others didn't have the time to spend playing with the robbers. Therefore, the atmosphere in the war room seemed a little depressing.
"Most of the things they took were metal components. These things are worthless to armed mobs. They only have value if they are sold. As far as I know, there are many dirty underground places in the wilderness that can be sold." The black market, maybe we can monitor the situation of these underground black markets to obtain information about the robbers." Anthony suggested that, as the captain of the pioneer team, he has always been careful in thinking and good at reverse thinking. In the current passive situation, his proposal is also feasible.
Zero displayed several photos on the light screen on the wall through the brain in the conference room. On the light screen, photos of several dead people were displayed. Looking at these photos, Ling said: "We have made a preliminary analysis of the corpses of the victims, and we know that the opponent's team has at least one ability user in the perception domain. And two of the corpses suffered severe head injuries. Judging from the injury, it should be killed by a blunt weapon like a warhammer. Combined with the degree of deformation of the metal components on the off-road vehicle, the murderer has at least two levels of strength enhancement. But we should also pay attention to the fact that the guards The average soldier has an ability of more than two levels, and captain Sam is even a level three ability user, which shows that the killer's ability should have an ability of around four levels."
"What are you trying to explain by saying all these things?" Rankin cried out impatiently.
Zero looked at him, and said silently: "I want you to know that this gang of robbers has a fourth-order combat domain ability user, a perception domain ability user, and an armed mob of no less than fifty people. Such a group A team, even with reserves of food, will soon run out."
"I understand." Anthony nodded and said: "You mean, we can monitor the major city bases south of the coastline. If we find a large amount of food for sale, we can track it down and finally find the hiding place of this armed mob. point."
"Not all." Zero shook his head and said, "That's the same as your suggestion just now, it seems too passive. We need a more active method to find out their hiding places."
Rankin said, "Then what can you do?"
Zero smiled and said: "If we make a gesture of hunting down this armed mob to the bases in major cities, then they will definitely not be able to get supplies in the cities or bases. And in this situation of lack of food, if they hear that there is a car full of How do you say these armed mobs will react if food trucks are going from Phoenix to Remut?"
George slammed his thigh and said, "Of course we should do another vote, so as not to starve to death."
"That's it. If you have no opinions, I suggest to start action." Zero said lightly: "And the code name of this action, let's call it 'Hunger Games'!"
The deafening sound came from the generators in the mine. These high-power generators were obtained by the wolf robbers from a certain robbery and became the power supply source for the new base. It's just that the generator is powered by old-fashioned diesel. In the new era when more and more solid combustion is used, the resource of diesel is already quite scarce. At present, the diesel stored in the new base can only be supplied normally for three to five days, which makes Ghost Fox a headache.
After Kazuo Hewata took over the Wolf Bandits, the new leader decisively gave up the previous base in the ruined stadium. It turned out that Kazuo Hedo was right. Not long after they left, the army of Titan City carried out a siege on the stadium. Of course, the other side is in vain.
Since then, Kazuo Hewata has carefully selected this abandoned mine located behind Remut and nearly five kilometers from the coastline highway as a new base. At present, the base has been partially remodeled to facilitate the daily life of the wolf robbers.
The repair of the power system is just one of the transformations. But now, the exhaustion of diesel has made Ghost Fox a headache. But this is not the most important thing. There is no power supply, and at most the mines are dark, but it is still tolerable. What really bothered the ghost foxes was that their food reserves were almost exhausted.
