FAZER LOGINKnowing what Barlin was about to pull, Merlin promptly sent the processed media to Charlie, who watched it with Vera, Ruby, and Penny.Charlie flashed a lopsided grin as he murmured, "Guess our geezer is really taking a gamble on this one. He just might succeed and keep his plans hidden from both the Japanese and Americans if he takes control of the two hundred Americans in McMurdo Base. However, their large-scale search will inevitably cause a huge fuel shortage and equipment wear and tear. When summer comes and the researchers and tourists arrive, he's not hiding anything then!" "At that time, the governments in both countries will both be in for a nasty shock. Where did all their fuel reserves go? What is with that stupidly high number on their vehicle odometers? Even if they reset the odometers, the wear and tear on vehicle tracks, tires, engines, gearboxes, drive shafts—basically every part of their vehicles can't be hidden. "Frequent vehicle use will also rapidly deplete the
Noticing Barlin's shock, Kohei admitted, "It's a long journey, but that's just it—the Antarctic isn't a completely flat icy wilderness. There are hills and other steep inclines, as well as ice formations that will slow us down. Even if we travel non-stop, it will take at least eight days.""Eight days…"Barlin trailed off, and demanded, "But you said it's 800 miles as the crow flies. Then why don't we fly?"Kohei replied, "There's still 600 miles to cover through the sea, and without any place to land and refuel, the helicopter can't get that far even with auxiliary tanks."So the only way is to drive? Are there really no other options?""None that are ideal."Barlin fumed, but soon exclaimed, "The ship! What about the ship? Have the helicopter land on it, and sail to the nearest point to that American base, and fly over!"Kohei shook his head. "My lord, you told us before that we can't let the Japanese government find out about us. They will know we're lying if we move the ship
Kohei replied, "Well, mainly by airdropping special forces and military hardware. If the situation calls for it, they could even drop lightly armored vehicles here, while their bomber aircraft and artillery can bombard specific locations from another continent with almost pinpoint precision, and keep bombing it around the clock.""Fuck," Barlin muttered in exasperation.And here he thought he just became the king of this continent, only to be told that foreign forces can come and go as they please.And since there's almost no chance of convincing the Japanese military to deliver aviation kerosene, that means the helicopter is grounded for all intents and purposes… unless?Having yet another bright idea, Barlin blurted, "Alright, if banditry is a no go, then we can do it quietly, yes? So tell me, which country has the biggest research crew team on the continent? Just tell me and I'll head over, control their minds and steal all their fuel and supplies… Perhaps even make them assist
Despite having plenty of questions in his head about the possibility of an Antarctic subterranean city, Charlie returned to the Norway research station.-Meanwhile, the Japanese fuel truck had already been filled with the required fuel load, and returned from the ship to the Japanese research base.Barlin, feeling interested in something else for once, stepped out of his Griffin Winter Manor. Standing in the central plaza, he looked around smugly and quietly mused to himself, "Having such a modern team is truly invaluable in this barren wasteland. It's just a pity we're still a bit short-handed, and we are certainly a modest force compared to the hundreds of thousands under the command of the Qing Eliminating Society."Kohei had been overseeing the fuel transfer. After checking the remaining fuel, he instructed the transport personnel in Japanese to pay close attention to the fuel safety warning line. Once the fuel level approached the warning line, they must set off for the res
Merlin read through the translated conversion and quickly noticed certain points that should be taken notice.The Japanese research crew was searching in four different teams with different callsigns. Moreover, team one to three were ground teams, while team four was airborne.While that meant they were searching far and wide for something, there were plenty of mentions of a hidden city, while confirming through comms if the radar detected anything under the ice.As he promptly fed Charlie the information, Charlie quickly pieced together everything and realized that they were scanning the ice caps for a city under the ice.Logically speaking, these ice caps formed long before human civilization. Even with modern technology, humans can't build a subterranean city beneath the ice caps just yet, so that was even less likely for the ancients.Charlie was hence convinced that the ancients were most likely just going to die here without sufficient equipment and supplies… when he suddenl
Everyone working on this research vessel was an academic.In fact, Heiji himself didn't merely have professional certifications in nautical technology, but also in maritime electrical engineering—that meant he had a thorough understanding of all equipment on the ship.Moreover, Charlie's request wasn't all that difficult. They simply had to remove the standard communication module from the transport vehicle, install a Starlink system and connect it to the designated IP.And for Heiji, that was a walk in the park.So, when the fuel truck arrived, Heiji took advantage of the two-hour wait for fuel delivery by sending the crew away and modifying the module accordingly.The vehicle's GPS module was itself a simple, plug-and-play unit. Once turned on, it swiftly searched for GPS satellites, acquiring coordinates and then pushing the real-time coordinates to the data interface five times per second.Any device in the car that needed GPS coordinates could directly tap into this data int
Meanwhile, two dark, silent paragliders were flying fast at an altitude of two hundred meters.This kind of silent paraglider used lithium batteries to operate the electric engine, so it did not produce the noise generated by the fuel engine when it was running.Moreover, the fan blades of the paragli
Hiroshi sighed before he turned his head and told the driver, “Mr. Yamamoto, let’s jump out together later!”The driver wiped his cold sweat off before he nodded and said, “Okay! I will do it together with both of you!”At this time, the two ninjas working for Yahiko were already on the verge of death
At this moment, Hiroshi felt that his worldview had been turned upside down.It was such a shocking revelation to him that the famous sixth leader of the yakuza had died at the hands of a Ninjutsu master.However, he dared not doubt Yahiko’s words because he knew Yahiko’s character very well. The man
When Charlie heard Quinn saying that Yule’s physical condition did not seem very optimistic, he hurriedly asked her, “Nana, what’s wrong with Uncle Golding’s health?”Quinn replied sadly, “It’s still related to his pancreatic cancer. It seemed as though his condition had already stabilized a little w
