Chapter 196: Something happened, I won’t leave!
But in this overseas land, Behemoth's influence is like an invisible net that is far beyond their ability, even that of the company.
Seeing this, Zhuge Qing patted Zhang Chulan's shoulder gently and reminded him, "Chulan, let's get on the boat quickly."
However, Zhang Chulan was busy answering the phone at this time and seemed to be oblivious to Zhuge Qing's reminder.
His brows were furrowed and his expression was serious. It was obvious that some important news came from the other end of the phone.
After hanging up Xu Si's call, Zhang Chulan slowly turned around and said to Zhuge Qing: "Zhuge, don't worry about us for now, just continue with your work."
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Qing couldn't help but feel a little confused.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at Zhang Chulan out of the corner of his eye, trying to find the answer from the other's eyes.
The two people's eyes met in the air, and Zhuge Qing caught a subtle hint of determination in Zhang Chulan's eyes.
He immediately understood that Zhang Chulan had something urgent to do and could not leave the island.
So, Zhuge Qing didn't ask any more questions, just nodded lightly and said, "Okay, then you guys be careful."
Zhong Xiaolong drove the speedboat, breaking through the waves. The sea breeze with a salty and humid smell blew in her face, slapping Li Chan's face, but it seemed unable to blow away the clouds of sorrow in her heart.
She held on to the side of the boat tightly, looking back at the coast dyed red by the sunset from time to time, her eyes full of reluctance.
"Father, you must protect the king and the sacred tree."
She thought silently in her mind.
Zhuge Qing stood on the shore, watching the speedboat disappear into the distance. His intercom remained active. "Captain Huang, Li Chan has been safely aboard the speedboat and is expected to return to the ship within ten minutes. We will proceed as planned to ensure the safe evacuation of all personnel."
On the other end of the intercom, Huang Boren's voice came through the noise, with a hint of approval.
"Zhuge, you've done a great job. Now, let's turn our attention to the next mission. Lao Liang is ready, and Operation Flying Eagle is about to be launched. Remember, our goal is to ensure the safe return of every team member. At the same time, we must also gather as much intelligence as possible on the island to prepare for subsequent operations."
As Huang Boren finished speaking, Zhuge Qing turned his gaze to the distant sky, where several black shadows were rapidly enlarging. They were the group of drones under the command of Lao Liang.
He confirmed with Lao Yang through the intercom: "Lao Yang, can we proceed with the Flying Eagle Plan?"
"Yes." Lao Yang's voice was tinged with excitement. "All drones have been preheated, their flight routes have been planned, and they are ready to take off at any time."
"Let's start." Huang Boren gave the final order.
Lao Yang took a deep breath and pressed the start button.
Suddenly, a dense and orderly buzzing sound was heard on the deck of the ship, like a swarm of bees leaving a nest. Countless drone wings flashed with metallic luster in the afterglow of the setting sun, slowly rising, and then like an arrow from a bow, they cut through the sky and headed straight for the island.
On the deck, operators stared at the screens, their fingers flying across the keyboards, adjusting the drones' flight attitude and altitude to ensure they could perform reconnaissance missions accurately.
Old Yang stood behind them, his eyes sharp as a torch, giving instructions from time to time: "Pay attention, avoid the tall trees on the island, and keep flying at a low altitude. We need to obtain as much information about the island as possible."
The drones formed a formation in the air and flexibly shuttled beneath the clouds, taking in every blade of grass, every brick and tile of the island.
Their lenses capture lush forests, well-arranged buildings, and the occasional mysterious human figures.
All of this was clearly recorded and transmitted back to the ship via satellite signals.
The Behemoth men, their faces filled with anxiety and anger, quickly rushed over to Zhuge Qing, practically pointing their finger at him and demanding, "What on earth are you trying to do? Are these dense swarms of drones in the sky a declaration of war?"
Zhuge Qing remained calm, his eyes revealing a calmness. He gently patted the other person's shoulder, signaling him to calm down.
"Friends, please be patient. I understand how you feel, but please believe me, we mean no harm."
"no offense?"
The people from Behemoth obviously didn't buy it, and their tone was full of doubt.
"So what do you mean? Surrounding our island with drones?"
Zhuge Qing smiled faintly and explained, "Don't be nervous or worried. Our purpose here is simple: we simply want to bring our people back safely. However, as you know, some of these people, for various reasons, may not be suitable for large-scale operations. Therefore, we do not want to mobilize too many manpower and material resources for this."
"So what's up with your drone?"
Behemoth's men still refused to give in.
Zhuge Qing sighed and continued, "This is actually for your company's consideration. If our people directly launch a large-scale operation after entering this island, it will likely cause you unnecessary trouble. After all, you still have unfinished missions on this island. We naturally don't want to see such a thing happen."
"So, sending these drones to the island to notify us is the best option for both of us to win."
"They can quickly convey the message to everyone on the island without requiring us to conduct a large-scale search and operation. This saves time and avoids unnecessary conflicts."
Upon hearing this, the people of Behemoth's brows gradually relaxed, but they still had some doubts.
"Won't these drones...interfere with our operations?"
"Don't worry, they are only conducting notification and reconnaissance and will not participate in any form of combat."
Zhuge Qing patted his chest and assured, saying confidently, "Furthermore, we will strictly control the flight path and altitude of the drone to ensure that it does not affect your operations."
Seeing Zhuge Qing's sincere expression, the Behemoth's people finally nodded, but there was still a hint of warning in their tone.
"I hope you will do what you say, otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
"Of course, we will keep our promise."
Zhuge Qing responded with a smile, "After all, we all have the same goal, don't we?"
As the two sides reached a consensus, the tense atmosphere was finally eased.
At this time, Ye Qing was also thinking that his senior brother Xiao Zizai had probably already landed on the island, and he didn't know when he would meet him again.
However, he came to this island for work and probably couldn't spare the time to meet us.
What a pity! It’s a bit regrettable!
I miss my senior brother a lot!
