Chapter 254: 254, Hunt nanofighters

Ren Xiaosu knew that Wang Yuch and the others were all top students, and they had long been studying advanced knowledge beyond the syllabus to prepare for college entrance exams.

However, Ren Xiaosu had always wondered, what could a few high school students possibly do?

In the end, Ren Xiaosu realized he had underestimated Jiang Wu's students. Jiang Wu had risked his life, dignity, and principles to protect them, and they had not brought shame upon him.

Wang Yuch thought for a moment and said, "If you want us to design something too sophisticated, it won't work. All we can do is minimize air resistance and make the mechanical transmission structure as... as..."

"No need to explain, that's enough!" Ren Xiaosu waved his hand broadly. "First, draft a preliminary design, and then improve it when you have the chance to further your studies!"

"But, class leader, I don't quite understand, what exactly do you want this thing for?" Wang Yuch raised his own doubt. "First of all, we don't have any materials, and second, the power source and..."

Ren Xiaosu waved his hand again. "Don't worry about that, it will come!"

Ren Xiaosu was well aware that the problems Wang Yuch raised could all be solved by nanorobots, but he couldn't reveal the truth to Wang Yuch yet.

Wang Yuch and the others stared at Ren Xiaosu, dumbfounded...

They had a vague suspicion in their hearts, perhaps their class leader had found something valuable again? Could someone be in trouble once more?

At this moment, when Ren Xiaosu looked toward the officers of the Shenji Camp in the distance, it was as if he were gazing at his own brand-new exoskeleton armor.

Ren Xiaosu had a new plan. If Tang Zhou were to send back a message, the retreat routes from the frontline battlefield for the Shenji Camp were only a few. He needed to figure out the situation before acting, and ensure the materials for the exoskeleton armor were gathered!

He wasn't sure about Tang Zhou's combat capabilities, but they probably wouldn't be too bad.

The heavy snow in the wilderness had been falling nonstop, not just on Li's side, but the entire tripartite battlefield was brought to a standstill by the snow.

The snow blocked the roads, and vehicles couldn't pass. In some places, the snow hadn't even reached the soldiers' hips—this kind of battle was impossible to fight.

This snow was the true large-scale weapon of mass destruction.

The stalemate on the battlefield was like a machine gun barrel still hot from firing, and this snow suddenly cooled the barrel.

All of Ren Xiaosu's side had taken shelter in tents, no one willing to venture out into the snow, not even the officers of the Shenji Camp.

Only Ren Xiaosu went out every night and returned in the morning to sleep soundly. When he slept, Chen Wudi would guard him, and no one could get close.

These past few days, many people had run out of steamed buns, while Ren Xiaosu would bring back a bunch of potatoes every day, sometimes twenty-eight, sometimes twenty-nine. Anyway, there was always food to eat, though no one knew where he dug them up...

It had to be said, their operational squad had never lacked food.

After Ren Xiaosu woke up, Li Qing happened to ask curiously, "Xiaosu, what have you been busy with these past few days, sneaking out every night?"

Ren Xiaosu replied tiredly, "Digging potatoes for you guys, we can't just sit idle, can we?"

Upon hearing this, all the soldiers in the squad were moved. "Class leader, you're such a good person! Thank you, class leader!"

Ren Xiaosu looked at the number of his gratitude coins jumping again, the day of unlocking a new weapon was drawing nearer.

In fact, he hadn't gone out to dig potatoes. Every night, he had to meet Tang Zhou to discuss the next steps.

Tang Zhou's side had a complete battlefield survey map, which had saved Ren Xiaosu a lot of trouble. However, after reviewing the map, Ren Xiaosu felt it was safer to go in person, so he had visited the two best ambush spots for the Shenji Camp's retreat over the past two days.

This moved Tang Zhou. "Xiaosu, you're a good friend of ours from the Qing family!"

Ren Xiaosu glanced at Tang Zhou. "Tomorrow, I'm going to grab a satellite phone for you. Do you think Qing Zhen and Luo Lan can make a comeback? I actually enjoy dealing with Luo Lan."

"Yes," Tang Zhou suddenly said firmly. "Commander Qing Zhen and Boss Luo will surely not remain down for long. We're all waiting for that day."

"Luo the Fat will be touched to hear you say that," Ren Xiaosu said. "Tomorrow night, same place. I'll bring the satellite phone."

The meeting place they chose was even farther than the spot where they had planted the thorny vines. Ren Xiaosu was worried someone might see them.

"You said there were five nanowarriors?" Tang Zhou asked. "Do you need our assistance?"

Ren Xiaosu was leaving. "No need. Chen Wudi is with me."

This time, Ren Xiaosu didn't intend to let Chen Wudi act. He just had to explain it this way to Tang Zhou. After all, five nanowarriors weren't easy to deal with. Although relations with the Qing family were good now, he still didn't want them to have a clear understanding of his strength.

The next morning, Ren Xiaosu walked toward the camp with a large rabbit clutched tightly in his arms. Everyone spotted his figure from afar.

Someone standing at the door of the camp house exclaimed in amazement, "Where did you catch this rabbit? It's so big?"

Several Shenji Camp officers were running low on their individual rations, and how could they get real grilled meat aroma from eating individual rations every day? So when these officers saw the big rabbit in Ren Xiaosu's arms, their eyes went wide.

But at that moment, the big rabbit in Ren Xiaosu's arms suddenly struggled, and Ren Xiaosu seemed to collapse under the weight, the rabbit suddenly bolted!

The Shenji Camp officers panicked. "Why didn't you hold it tighter?"

Ren Xiaosu anxiously said, "Hurry and chase it back! Otherwise, it was all for nothing!"

Upon hearing this, the five officers didn't think much and immediately activated the nanorobots within their bodies to chase after it. The five of them exploded with speed, and now they were even faster than the rabbit!

Ren Xiaosu watched from behind, squinting. The nanorobots in these regular troops were indeed more numerous, and Lin Qi's speed wasn't that fast.

A crowd from the camp trudged through the snow toward the rabbit's direction, but suddenly, an anomaly occurred. Where the five officers stood, a red thorny net suddenly closed, directly wrapping the five officers inside!

The thorns on the thorny vines instantly pierced their skin, but even more terrifying was that their blood seemed to be sucked out, drawn into the branches by the thorns!

The Shenji Camp officers struggled desperately to tear open the entire red net, and the five of them fell out of the net, gasping heavily. But before they could recover from their shock, the ground rolled up new crimson thorns again!

Those crimson thorns seemed endless!

Everyone who followed recoiled in horror—this scene was truly terrifying!
