Quit the team, then picked up a beautiful girl with problems

Bosideng sighed, "Actually, it's not that secret. Or rather, I've gradually doubted its value over the years."

As a leader and senior engineer, the director of the Xingchen Shipyard succinctly recounted a certain past of the Rudder City.

The Ship City, built on the ruins of ancient civilization, naturally has relics of previous civilizations. It is no secret that the people here benefit from this, and the twelve shipyards are naturally the biggest beneficiaries.

In addition to the shipbuilding technology that has been gradually accumulated by the shipyards, many technologies also come from the twelve tunnels buried under the city. The things inside the tunnels are different, so the knowledge obtained by each shipyard is also different. However, because they come from the same source, they can naturally complement each other.

In the early days, the twelve shipyards cooperated with each other and ushered in a rapid technological and economic leap. At that time, they were not twelve shipyards, but predecessors of various identities, including repair shops and processing plants. Only then did they become comprehensive large-scale shipyards.

However, later someone became selfish.

The reason is that a shipyard discovered another tunnel and found treasures inside that surpassed the current treasures.

That shipyard is Kongyan.

The people of Kongyan began to become almost crazy about wanting to know the knowledge held by other shipyards. They did not hesitate to take more extreme measures to achieve this, and even caused dissatisfaction among the guild that controlled the 13th channel, and severed cooperation with them.

This incident ended with an internal split within Kongyan.

"That happened during the time of my predecessor's predecessor as factory director. Our factory only records that the object Kong Yan discovered was split into two parts: one held the object itself, and the other held the 'key.' Activating the key requires knowledge, which is why they were so eager for it.

"The people who left Kongyan are naturally those who oppose the means used against us to plunder their knowledge. They wield potentially immense power and are nowhere to be found. We all suspect they are the current 'Shadow Shipyard'. Have you heard of this urban legend?"

As Bosideng spoke, he was still sizing up Li Ang's expression.

Li Ang was already used to this kind of thing and didn't reveal any flaws: "Someone mentioned that I won't ask you for that knowledge. Tell me how much the Empire knows so I can handle the matter."

Bosideng shook his head: "They basically don't know, but I don't know whether they have learned it from other shipyards. We also have a hiding place for specific shipbuilding knowledge, which we can tell you."

Bosideng's willingness to reveal the secret did indeed mean that he was tired of the certain rules passed down because of such history. The knowledge that could be obtained in the tunnel was definitely limited, and the shipyard should have almost digested it all. Instead, it brought disaster to today, which was really not worth it.

Even if Leon obtained this knowledge, he would not be able to build a ship that surpassed the current twelve shipyards, so the other party was naturally willing to give it up, and he was also willing to use it to give face to the strong man who saved his life.

The real hidden treasure is behind the door at the end of the tunnel, and that door cannot be opened just by anyone.

As for Leon, he really didn't care about this knowledge. He had entered the Furnace of Creation and obtained the Law of Fusion, and the knowledge of the shipyard must be included.

But he was indeed a little surprised. He didn't expect that things in the Rudder City would be like this in the past.

From this perspective, weren't the people who rebelled against Kongyan the ones led by Locke? Although today's Shadow Shipyard is not only composed of Kongyan's separatists, there are also people who are dissatisfied with other shipyards.

As for the "powerful thing" they had without a key, Leon felt that it was the giant ancient ship.

Locke knew Passage 14 where the ancient ship was located. Kong Yan might have its starter, but the starter required knowledge of the Furnace of Creation to activate it - this was Leon's analysis.

After asking the people at the Star Shipyard to take good care of themselves, Leon returned with Andasu and Meluna.

Before dawn, he managed to get back to the rowers' dormitory and waited anxiously for Huo Zui Mouth, who finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh, I almost thought I'd have to rack my brains to come up with a plan. I've even thought of several excuses."

"Thanks for your hard work."

“Did you gain anything this time?”

"Achieve a lot."

Li Ang smiled at Reed: "But I still need to figure out what to do next."

Back in the room, Li Ang immediately took out a pen and paper to summarize the information.

According to Bosideng, all the shipyards should be similar to Xingchen, and the hostages are being held in the core tunnels, otherwise they would not be able to find such a large space to hide so many people silently.

The purpose of Li Ang and the other two coming in this time was to find out the location of the hostages and launch an attack after rescuing them. Now that they knew their location, what they lacked was how to contact them, especially to get everyone to act in sync and transport them all away.

There are also problems in communicating with the outside world.

The communicator was currently unusable because, after the Empire occupied the shipyard, their forces were able to easily detect fluctuations in the communicator. Even if this suddenly rising power didn't understand the details of Newbis's conventional yet advanced tactics, those at the pinnacle of souls would provide them with information.

At this point, using a communicator in the shipyard will be detected.

The communicator itself is also very expensive. The mother and child stones and magic equipment used for voice transmission are difficult to produce. The Shadow Shipyard only has one set. One of the sub-terminals is for the fighters lurking in the shipyard, but everyone shares this one.

This machine should be in the hands of the leader of the Lurking Fighters, and it cannot be used in this situation.

After much thought, Li Ang decided to find time to go back.

As for how to rescue the people, since the hostages were trapped in the core tunnel, he had an idea, but to implement it would require the cooperation of a lot of high-end combat forces.

330. Misunderstanding Resolved

After writing down the information that needed to be remembered, Reard also brought people to deliver breakfast. On the surface, everything was normal, and Leon was temporarily relieved.

The sunlight from outside the window shone in, and the battle underground seemed like something happening in a dream.

The plan moved forward quickly, but the process happened in an unexpected way.

Because Meluna heard the three Soul Apex people scolding him, things took a radical turn and he almost didn't know how to end it.

At present, things are still under control. This is all thanks to the time before sunrise when Leon completed the spiritual drive to wear down one of them.

He looked at his left arm. The bloody thorns of the devil's claw were always so glaring no matter how many times, but he had to admit that this time it was all thanks to it.

To be honest, he didn't expect that the problem could be solved in just one hour. Compared with the time he spent on Fukat in the Flashing Field, this efficiency was quite high.

Li Ang felt a little complicated.

He looked at Meluna beside him, also feeling angry and mixed emotions.

Andasu went back to the house to wash up, but this salted fish couldn't be taken care of by herself, so she could only sit in his room and watch him.

"Come here." Li Ang waved.

Meluna responded and walked in front of Li Anglingmeng;Yingqiu Yi.

Before he could make a move, she grabbed the hem of her dress with both hands and prepared to pull it up.

"stop."

Li Ang had no choice but to call her and pinch her face.

"Mmmm."

Compared to the four problem girls whose cheeks were either small or delicate, the two Meimeis had more fleshy faces. Leon pinched Meluna's tender cheeks in his palms, squeezing them into various shapes. He vented his dissatisfaction in this way, and then sighed and put the matter to rest.

"Did I do something wrong again?" Meluna rubbed her face which was sore from being pinched by him.

Of course, that's based on your standards. If it were someone else's, it would be completely wrong."

"Oh."

Li Ang felt that there seemed to be a faint smile on the corner of this guy's mouth.

Seeing her like this, he became angry instead. His mind was in a daze and his palm had unconsciously slid down. When he came to his senses, he had already pinched the front end of the hill through her clothes.

"Hmm..."

Meluna hummed softly, her eyebrows unconsciously wrinkled.

There was a hint of beauty on her cold and beautiful face, but her eyes were gleaming with tears, as if this was exactly what she had been waiting for.

Now that he had done it, Li Ang became ruthless and continued to increase the strength of his hands.

He had played similar games before, but he always held back. Today, the force he used was not small. Even the female swordsman who had faced the end of the world could not resist the pull and traction of her weak points, and she kept groaning in her throat.

"This is what you disliked the most before, right? I tell you, no matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to endure it."

"no……"

The swordsman, who was not afraid of even the legendary dragon, felt his knees weaken and he barely managed to stand by placing his arms on Leon's shoulders. He bent his waist, and although he was pulling and pinching her, he was no longer able to resist. His whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

"I, I've already gone..."

"I thought I couldn't see? This isn't the first time."

"the third time……"

"Well, you're honest."

He used to be soft-hearted and kept his distance, but now he no longer had to worry about anything. His fear meant she couldn't resist, but this time, Li Ang was resolute enough. If she tried to hide, he wouldn't mention it again, but that meant he couldn't tolerate her messing around.

Meluna seemed to have sensed his determination, so even if it meant being utterly humiliated and scattered on the ground, she gritted her teeth and endured it.

Leon waited until Meluna knelt completely on the ground before letting go of her hand. He grabbed her hair and pulled up her drooping head so that her face was facing him.

Her face was covered with uncontrollable tears, and at this moment she was like a shivering cub.

The burning flame in his heart subsided a lot. Leon took a deep breath, trying to let the cool morning air dispel the last bit of burning sensation.

"Go out."

He stood up and went downstairs, and Meluna quickly got up and followed him.

While eating a sumptuous breakfast with everyone, I listened to Reard saying with a smile that this was a breakfast he had purchased with limited funds from a cheap and delicious restaurant in the Helm City after comparing prices.

Li Ang increasingly felt that this member of the Soul Peak branch was not ordinary. He had a methodical way of dealing with people and things, and was not bound by certain rules or stereotypes.

After dinner, Reard suggested that Andasu go to the maintenance room for communication and participate in the promotion of the Double Eagle Helm Celebration.

This was exactly what Leon wanted. His main purpose was to infiltrate and obtain an identity. His purpose was to obtain a legitimate reason to stop the Empire and the Soul Peak during the rescue.

Just as I thought of this, there was suddenly some commotion in the distance.

The workers were marching towards the factory, not to the canteen but to the factory building. Perhaps they were forced to simply cope at home, and it was not them who caused the commotion, but the empire's transport team.

The Wormos Shipyard was not one of the five shipyards that were heavily guarded. Only when they came to transport materials could one see so many imperial forces, but they had obviously done something before to maintain a reign of terror. The workers were very uneasy watching the team advance, but they did not dare to do anything because their families were all imprisoned.

Leon's eyes met with Ger's who had turned his gaze away from the factory. He observed the other people at the table. The rowers who were paid to participate in the event had obviously noticed something in the past few days. Some of them looked indifferent, some frowned and thought, and some pretended not to see it.

"Okay, let's go to the maintenance shop." Reard clapped his hands.

Everyone stood up and came to the destination in a mighty procession. Andasu's Running Wolf was also transported here yesterday and was lined up with the other twelve racing boats.

Naturally, the people in the maintenance room had heard about what happened before, including Kruk, the new main force of Soul Apex.

Maintenance workers wearing Kongyan work clothes were surrounding the Wolf Run to inspect it, and seemed to want to take it apart to have a look.

Andasu frowned and ran over. Seeing her coming, these people were stunned for a moment. Li Ang immediately stepped forward and said, "Our ship, we can prepare it ourselves."

Crook looked at Leon's group and said, "The Double Eagle Helm Festival will greatly enhance your reputation. Instead of thinking of our kindness, you're still giving us a cold shoulder?"

"No, no, no," Reard quickly said, smiling. "Everyone has their own expertise. Professional rowers and maintainers know what their boats need, so they don't bother us. It saves us a lot of work, which is great."

"They might have tampered with something to win. If they put the same thing on our ship, they can still win." Crook said with his arms crossed.

This person's attitude really seems to require dismantling the Wolf Run for inspection.

Andasu certainly could not accept such a thing, but she knew the importance of the current mission. On one side was her beloved car, and on the other side was cooperating with the mission for Li Ang. She bit her lips tightly, and although she tried to look at Li Ang with a calm look, she also felt a lot of grievances.

"She defeated us with her strength. Can't we just exchange technical experience normally?"

"Yes, for professional rowers, it's important to maintain your own boat."

Geer and Lindsen also offered their help.

"Are you trying to say that our shipyard is incompetent? That we lost outright? You're taking money and still speaking for outsiders, right?"

Crook's eyes widened, and his arrogant attitude reminded Leon of Ramsay, but this was just a low-end version of Ramsay. If the latter was only capable of being arrogant, he would not have deceived everyone including Will.

Crook glanced at the people around him and sneered, "Do you know what the concept of excellence is? Just one person in our group can paralyze the defense of an entire city in the Flores airspace."

What he said could only come true half way, provided that the main force of the Soul Peak could wear the full equipment they used to conquer the Jedi Secret Realm, and the Order Flower Sword Group turned a blind eye.

But for a rower who was almost an ordinary person, such deterrence was enough. While everyone was silent, the mechanic from the Kongyan Shipyard also held his head high beside him, looking quite proud.

Soul Apex, Empire, and Sky Flame Shipyard, it seems that their temperaments are really similar.

When his eyes met Crook's, Leon's mind suddenly went blank. He shook his head and tried his best to regain his senses.

He could confirm that this was not an illusion.

From the very beginning, he had a hard time suppressing his emotions. He could attribute his contact with Meluna to old grudges, but he couldn't think so the second time.

As the demon's arm felt painful and itchy, it confirmed that it was causing trouble again. A wave of irritation rose in Leon's mind. The emotion was so strong that it made him feel dizzy and a little unsteady.

The people around him also noticed that something was wrong with him.

"Oh?"

Crook also noticed Li Ang's condition and laughed, "Is someone scared out of their wits by me? Is that really that exaggerated? Are you okay?!"

He arrogantly pretended to be concerned and patted Li Ang.

The outsider's hand touched Leon's shoulder, just like a volcano gathering strength and throwing explosives inside. Before the high-rise building collapsed, the hammer broke a pillar, and the emotions amplified by the devil's curse instantly collapsed.

"Go away!"

Li Ang waved away Crook's hand with one palm, and the maintenance room fell silent.
