Chapter 179 Assistance from the Ministry of War Readiness!
The early morning sun shines all over the streets and alleys of Longdu.
Xue Yun and Xiao Gu packed their bags and were ready to set off at any time.
Different from the past, this mission is a transnational mission.
The place everyone wants to go is the Sunset Islands located in the southwest of the Daxia Empire.
Not only are the mountains high and the roads far apart, there is also a huge Lieyang Strait in between.
No matter how awesome Zhao Tianyi's armored vehicle is, it can't go that far.
It is even less possible to cross a coastline full of freaks...
The only means of transportation available is the high-frequency maglev train linking the two countries.
This thing spans most of the Great Xia Empire, and even crosses the Lieyang Strait, directly leading to Caoji County, the capital of the empire where the sun never sets.
It is the only transportation hub between the two countries!
As for all matters at home, they are left to Aunt Liu to take care of, so there will naturally be no mistakes.
Shi Kelang and his son are responsible for the daily security work of the villa.
Some guns and ammunition were purchased through the black market, and Xue Yun personally handed these gadgets into their hands.
These thermal weapons are of little use to the Night's Watch.
But dealing with some ordinary little thieves shouldn't be a big problem.
When leaving, Xue Yun gave Beigong Mu's contact information to Yao Qin.
Instruct her to contact her immediately if she encounters big trouble.
After all, the people who judged the apostles are still lurking in a corner of Longdu, watching eagerly.
What if these crazy guys come to your door?
Even for Xue Yun's sake, Beigong Mu would not stand idly by.
After settling all the household affairs, Xue Yun took Xiaogu and got into a taxi.
The journey was smooth and smooth until we reached the waiting tower of the maglev train.
The huge waiting tower towers high into the sky and is directly linked to the train track.
The waiting hall on the first floor was empty. A cordon had been set up in front of the door and no one was allowed to pass.
The two came closer and saw that Zhao Tianyi and Zhuge Gang were waving to them in front of the gate.
"Boss! You're finally here!"
Picking up Xue Yun's thigh, Zhuge Gang burst into tears: "These national night watchmen won't let us enter the station, saying that no one is allowed to leave Longdu during the lockdown! It's simply unreasonable!"
He glanced at Zhao Tianyi, who was holding his ever-changing iron box in his hand, pushed up his glasses and said.
"It seems that martial law does not allow people to leave the city. This time we are in trouble..."
Since receiving the news that the Judgment Apostles were going to attack Longdu, the War Preparedness Department issued a curfew!
The patrol work around the fortress city has also been strengthened more than ten times on the original basis.
In addition, the incident of An Ruxuan being ambushed in the city further confirmed the information that the judge of the apostles was lurking in the city.
An Gufeng directly signed the authorization on behalf of the Ministry of War Readiness.
From now on, Longdu is on lockdown!
Unless there is a release document from the Ministry of War Preparedness, no citizen is allowed to leave the city without permission!
The huge Dragon City turned into an iron barrel in an instant.
People inside can't get out, and people outside can't get in...
Looking at the heavily armed national night watchman in front of the door, Xue Yun had a headache for a moment.
"By the way, where are the others, Hu Kui?"
"I don't know!"
Shaking his head, Zhuge Gangtang shrugged and said: "Except for those two door gods, I didn't see anyone else when I came here!"
Everyone looked at each other, helpless.
Suddenly, a black business car drove from a distance and slowly stopped beside them.
"Damn it! I'm so exhausted!"
Wearing a green camouflage uniform, Hu Kui looked like a student going to military training.
Carrying several huge packages on his shoulders, this guy jumped out of the back seat while cursing.
"Old Xue, don't just watch, help me quickly!"
Xue Yun quickly stepped forward to take the package. Xue Yun opened it curiously and was dumbfounded for a moment.
There were five large packages filled with all kinds of weird things.
Gas masks, medical kits, ropes with hooks, and even five camouflage vests similar to body armor...
"What the hell is this!?" Xue Yun couldn't help but ask.
"The devil knows..."
Raising his head and taking a sip of water, Hu Kui shouted: "When I went out in the morning, my old man forced it on me, saying it was supplies funded by the Ministry of War Preparedness..."
"..."
Putting on a dead fish eye, Xue Yun was completely speechless.
There seemed to be a lot of these things, but none of them were useful in his eyes.
"Materials, that's it?!"
"Don't underestimate these things..."
Squatting down, Zhao Tianyi carefully looked through the backpack and began to explain the uses one by one.
Gas masks are standard equipment of the Daxia Empire and can effectively isolate most poisonous gases.
This mission will most likely go deep into an underground mine. That place never sees the light of day and is filled with all kinds of poisonous gases. This thing will be of great use to Xue Yun and his party!
Opening the medical kit, white cold mist roared out.
Various antidotes and pain-relieving medicines lay quietly inside, looking orderly.
After all, it is a cross-border mission, and I am not familiar with the place.
In case of injury, these medicines will allow Xue Yun and others to carry out necessary self-rescue in time.
Increased safety factor for everyone!
As for those vests that look like body armor, they are high-end ones with vinyl linings added.
Wearing it on the body can greatly improve defense and buffer the direct damage caused by biological force fields.
In addition to these, the War Readiness Department also prepared the latest intelligent holographic projection communication equipment for the five people.
Xue Yun had seen this thing in Fengdu before. It looked like a small electronic watch.
It has integrated functions such as instant image communication, positioning coordinates and voice group chat!
In this era, it is a proper high-tech military material.
Ordinary citizens have no chance to come into contact with it!
According to Zhao Tianyi, the cost of this set alone is as high as millions, which is definitely worth a lot of money!
It seems that these gadgets are messy on the surface, but in fact An Gufeng completely customized them for them and spent a lot of thought on them.
"Ouch, I almost forgot!"
With a slap on the forehead, Hu Kui quickly turned around and walked to the trunk of the business car.
A suitcase and a document were taken out from inside.
"My father asked me to hand these two things over to you personally!"
He took the document and glanced at it. It was the proof of leaving the city specially approved by the Longdu War Preparedness Department!
It not only has the seal of the Ministry of War Readiness, but also the autographs of An Gufeng and Hu Haiquan.
With this document, even if the maglev train is forced to stop operating due to the city's lockdown, it must provide a special service for Xue Yun and his party.
The biggest problem at the moment has finally been solved!
"What's in the box?" Xue Yun asked.
Spreading his hands, Hu Kui shook his head and said, "Who knew, it's so heavy!"
In front of everyone, Xue Yun opened the buttons on both sides of the suitcase.
Push it open with a snap!
Everyone couldn't help but take a breath...
The suitcase is filled with a lot of cash and banknotes!
If you take a closer look, it turns out to be the Yamato coin of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets...
"Hey, dear, how much does this cost?" Zhuge Gang's eyes widened.
"Calculated according to the exchange rate..."
Putting a lollipop into his mouth, Zhao Tianyi responded: "It should be worth at least more than ten million Daxia coins!"
Everyone was shocked and speechless.
Even though Xue Yun is now worth over 100 million, he is still a bit confused!
It is indeed the Longdu War Preparedness Department!
He was so arrogant as soon as he made a move...
Even the local currency has been prepared for Xue Yun and the others!
This is for fear that they will freeze and starve when they go to the Empire where the sun never sets...
