#394 - Chapter 394 Micro-ant Colony

"That's what Master said, not me. If you have time, ask him yourself." Ling Luo, unable to win him over, changed the subject with a smile.

"Senior Brother, there's something you might not know. Some time ago, we had a military conflict with China within the borders of Ulan." Ling Wu said.

"I know. The commander-in-chief responsible for that battle was Shen Tu Zheng Hao of the Northwest Military Region." Ling Luo replied.

"That's not what I'm talking about. Some time ago, Ling Tian and his group took a lot of people over there again, but only 5 came back in the end. The rest died. His master was also seriously injured, losing a leg and an arm." Ling Wu shook his head and continued.

"What? Such a thing happened?" Ling Luo was surprised.

He hadn't heard anything about it back home.

And coincidentally, it was very similar to the injuries sustained by the Bearded Man.

"Yes. If, as you say, such a powerful business association has appeared in China, I suspect these two things are related." Ling Wu speculated.

These two things seem unrelated, but for a tech geek like Ling Wu, there's a common thread: cutting-edge technology.

And the probability of two cutting-edge technology organizations appearing in China at the same time is very low.

So he naturally connected the two things.

"Your guess makes a lot of sense." Ling Luo agreed.

Both masters suffered the same injuries. He couldn't possibly believe there was no connection between the two.

Fortunately, he didn't say that the Bearded Man's injuries involved losing both feet, otherwise Ling Wu would have found a loophole.

Losing both feet isn't fatal, but he said he was on his last legs.

Once this clever kid found a loophole, it would be very difficult to backtrack.

"So, does that mean the force existing in Ulan now is likely the force behind that Huatong Business Association? And is this force the Red Lotus Sect you just mentioned?" Ling Wu analyzed.

"It's not impossible." Ling Luo nodded.

"No wonder Ling Tian and his gang suffered such a big loss." Ling Wu seemed to have realized something.

"Okay, let's get down to business. I'm here to borrow something from you today." Ling Luo quickly interrupted him.

"Borrow what?" Ling Wu asked.

"Mutated animals, ones that can burrow." Ling Luo said.

"You want to use them to build a base?" Ling Wu asked in surprise.

"That's right!" Ling Luo nodded with a smile.

"Senior Brother, you really dare to think!" Ling Wu gave him a thumbs up.

"I can't help it. After thinking it over, this is the best solution." Ling Luo said.

Ling Wu didn't answer immediately, pacing back and forth in the office.

"Okay!" After a two-minute silence, Ling Wu said.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Junior Brother." Ling Luo was overjoyed.

"However, Senior Brother, there are still a few questions." Ling Wu said.

"What questions?"

"When it comes to burrowing, ants are definitely the best. The key question is, how are you going to bring these ants back?" Ling Wu asked.

"Can't I just fly them back by plane?" Ling Luo was puzzled, in his opinion this wasn't a problem.

"By the way, I haven't even asked you, how did you get here?" Ling Wu asked.

"By plane." Ling Luo felt that he was getting stranger and stranger.

"I mean, did you fly directly over Ulan's airspace?" Ling Wu asked.

"That's right!" Ling Luo nodded.

"Weren't you intercepted?" Ling Wu asked.

"Nope."

"Did anything special happen?"

"Nope."

"That's strange." Ling Wu frowned.

"What's wrong? You're acting weird." Ling Luo was baffled.

"Didn't I just say? The current Ulan is already occupied by Chinese forces. You should have been intercepted for flying over their airspace." Ling Wu explained.

"Obviously, they didn't detect me." Ling Luo understood.

However, he believed that most of Ulan was uninhabited, and they couldn't possibly have complete coverage.

Ling Wu nodded, not dwelling on the matter, and continued:

"A single plane can't carry too many. I recently cultivated a kind of small ant, which is perfect for your use. How about this, I'll prepare a small colony for you, and you can cultivate them yourself after you get back." Ling Wu said.

"That's great!" Ling Luo said happily.

Although he wasn't as talented as Ling Wu, he was also an expert in biology, what problem could there be in cultivating ants?

Moreover, if he cultivated them himself, he could also control an ant army, killing two birds with one stone.

"These ants alone aren't enough. The terrain structure is very complex, and the natural nests they build still have the risk of collapsing. My suggestion is that you can integrate it with the technology in this white paper, so that it will be foolproof." Ling Wu suggested.

"That's what I was thinking." Ling Luo replied.

"Okay, since Senior Brother already has a plan, I won't say any more." Ling Wu nodded.

Two hours later, Ling Luo left Kultak with a two-meter-long wooden box.

What was inside this box was naturally the small ant colony cultivated by Ling Wu.
