Your skills are excellent, and now I have them too.

Chapter 123 Things are that simple

Arresting Shang Ni does not require solid evidence, and even presumption of guilt is sufficient, but it is not easy.

They possess the cunning methods found in Shang Jun's Secret Manual, making them difficult to track once they enter the Void Sea. Crucially, through centuries of strategic maneuvering, they have accumulated considerable experience and are extremely vigilant. At the slightest disturbance, they vanish without a trace, like fish in water.

This is why we can't control Luo Tianchong and Bu Tianyan and force them to cooperate with the Linglong Guard to lure and capture Shang Ni.

Only if it is completely true will there be a chance of capture.

Therefore, if Lu Zhao wants to send the coordinates, he must do so without being detected.

Luo Tianchong and Bu Tianyan couldn't escape, but the higher-ups didn't care about their lives at all. The key was that with the Void Sea ships, Shang Ni could take off and escape at any time. In any case, it would definitely be faster than Linglong Guards and Qingming Guards to lock onto the coordinates and then land.

If Shang Ni escapes, the mission will fail.

On the contrary, as long as these people are captured, there will be an opportunity to find the location of the rebel group behind them through magic or reasoning.

In short, the first thing to do is to get a device that can connect to the outside world.

The original plan included the option of secretly carrying a communicator, but Bu Tianyan was too suspicious and simply laid everything bare in the bathhouse, eliminating the possibility of smuggling.

However, this situation was expected, and there are alternative solutions, such as the fact that Luo Tianchong must have communication devices on him.

So, finding a way to steal the items is also an option.

In addition, the command center also conveyed many more complex methods through Nangong Qingye, all of which were plans developed by consulting experts in various fields.

These plans were all meticulously devised through repeated deductions and verifications, utilizing diverse professional knowledge.

Lu Zhao activated his quick thinking, immediately going through all the plans in his mind and picking out two or three that might be applicable to the current situation, waiting for the opportunity that had not yet appeared.

Hu Hu Hu.

The transport ship is still descending and has entered the final landing phase.

Although its size was far inferior to the Kun-class ships that came with it, and even less than the Whale-class ships that the Shang rebels used to launch their attack, the human body still seemed very small in front of such a thing.

Shang Ni seems to prefer fully enclosed ships, perhaps because this type of transport makes it easier to carry out unconventional operations.

The transport ship hadn't even fully landed when the door opened. In a proper port, this would be a clear violation of regulations. However, since they were a crazy organization capable of ramming ships directly in the virtual sea, it seemed normal enough that they waited until the ship came to a complete stop before disembarking.

The first person to disembark was a thin man with a goatee, dressed in a double-breasted cloth shirt and cloth shoes. He looked like a wise man, but his behavior was like that of a businessman. As soon as he got off the boat, he smiled and walked towards Luo Tianchong, reaching out to shake his hand.

The group following behind included one with two swords at her waist, her hands always hanging at her sides, ready to strike at any moment; a woman who walked on tiptoe, leaving no footprints in the sand, clearly a master of agility; and the rest, each with their own unique characteristics, none of them ordinary soldiers.

After several leaders came down, a large number of ordinary soldiers of the Shang rebels appeared on the ship. Just like the ones they had met in the Void Sea before, each of them had a fierce look in their eyes and completely disregarded the armed personnel of the Luobo Group who were on guard around them.

Lu Zhao had fought against both local thugs and businessmen, and he could sense that the difference in skill level between the two sides was not significant. However, the rebels were definitely more well-trained and fought with deadly force, while the gang members were much more mild-mannered in comparison.

At this point, Luo Tianchong had already begun contacting the other party to verify each other's identities.

After all, it's a business that could cost you your life. Even if the transport ship arrives, the chances of it being fake are very low, but we still need to be cautious.

Lu Zhao stood calmly at the back of the crowd, pondering how to execute the two or three feasible plans that had just come to mind.

"Find a solution quickly, I don't want to start Project Cleaver and Project Deep Dive!"

The so-called "kitchen knife plan" meant that when all else failed, they would use force to seize communication equipment, forcefully send signals, and then try to hold off the rebels as much as possible.

However, even Luo Tianchong didn't know who these people from Shang Ni's side were, or whether any of them were hidden experts from the Upper Three Realms. In the contingency plan, the chances of this plan succeeding were very low.

The Deep Dive Plan, on the other hand, involves abandoning this operation, continuing to lie in wait, and then closing in when Luo Tianchong makes his next contact with Shang Ni.

This tactic is highly unpredictable. The long-term trade route promised by the rebels may just be a pie in the sky, a one-off deal to be completed and then run away to gather more weapons elsewhere. The next contact may be a long time away, and by then, the front line may have already been attacked by the merchants.

In short, these are both last resorts. If possible, it would be best to achieve the goal in one decisive battle.

It took a full ten minutes just to test each other and confirm their identities. All parties were very cautious and tried to keep everything under control.

However, many things in the world that should be strictly controlled are full of coincidences.

Once upon a time, there was a powerful and wealthy man who was assassinated while visiting a foreign country. However, he managed to escape unscathed and was not only alive but also lively and energetic. So much so that he suddenly changed his plans and decided to visit the wounded in the hospital first.

In fact, this was a last-minute decision to save lives, because the delegation was unaware that there was still an assassin on the originally planned route.

But here's the coincidence: due to a work error, the decision to change the destination wasn't communicated to the driver, so the car was still driven to the street originally planned.

The assassin, who hadn't left yet, had already given up, but when he looked up, the nobleman's car was driving by again.

What a coincidence! He fired two shots right away.

The death of Archduke Ferdinand ignited World War I.

At this moment, a fuse was lit at the scene.

After confirming the other party's identity, Luo Tianchong, perhaps out of excitement, perhaps because he relaxed, or perhaps simply because he felt a little hot, took off his coat.

Sui Chaoyu "just happened" to step aside, moving to the "just right" position, and took the coat in the "just right" manner.

He came from a江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the martial arts world) background, and while he wasn't an expert in all six arts (swindling, cheating, stealing, and robbery), he certainly had some skill.

With a flick of his wrist, the phone in his coat pocket disappeared into his sleeve, and Luo Tianchong, who was talking to the goatee, completely forgot about its existence.

At the same time, Lu Zhao naturally walked to the side and took the clothes from her. Among this small group of core members, he was the youngest in seniority, so it was only right that he did this kind of chores.

Plans can never keep up with changes. No one expected that after carefully preparing a whole bunch of solutions, the answer would be found by throwing an eraser.

Sui Chaoyu walked to Bu Tianyan's side, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "I feel like something's not right. I'll go check from a higher vantage point over there."

He gestured with his eyes to a raised sand dune nearby.

Bu Tian was inherently suspicious and was always on the verge of exhaling, so upon hearing this, he immediately felt a little scared.

After all, he had some martial arts skills, but he was far inferior to Sui Chaoyu. Before he could accomplish everything, he still had to rely on the strength of this great master.

After he nodded, Sui Chaoyu walked away alone into the distance.

Wealthy people like Luo Tianchong have cell phones with base station-free communication capabilities. Even without a signal, they can communicate over long distances within a planet through spiritual energy resonance. This is martial arts technology. Base stations are maintained by real sorcerers, which are very expensive, and one has to pull strings to obtain the qualifications. In the county town, even the slightly less wealthy and powerful people don't have this option.

In short, Sui Chaoyu now has the tools and needs to go somewhere unnoticed to contact Nangong Qingye, who is always on standby.

Just as he was about to walk away, Shang Ni's goatee suddenly called out to him, "Where are you going?"
