Lin Yao couldn't help but feel intrigued. What was that?
The young man with the bamboo pole raised his middle finger at her and handed her a small sticker the size of a grain of rice. "This is a sound receiver. Stick it to your cochlea, and you'll be able to hear the sounds."
In an instant, Lin Yao understood; the little spider from earlier must have been a listening device.
Her interest piqued, she happily stuck the receiver to her cochlea.
After a moment of silence, it seemed the little spider had reached its destination, and soon they heard voices coming from the sound receiver.
"Brother Lei, this batch of goods is the largest we've ever had. When will it be shipped?" The voice sounded somewhat familiar, like that of the mercenary leader.
"It'll be in just a few days."
"Can't we move it up? Still the mercenary leader's voice."
"Do you think those aliens are easy to deal with? You can't just push for an earlier date!" The tone of this voice grew slightly angry, raising its volume.
"Brother Lei, that's not what I meant. It's just that there's been a lot of commotion lately, and the police on Yunmeng Star have started investigating. The brothers want to get their money sooner for some peace of mind!"
The mercenary leader no longer sounded arrogant in front of them; his tone was full of appeasement.
"That's your problem!"
Upon hearing this, the mercenary leader fell silent for a moment before reluctantly replying, "I understand, Brother Lei."
"Good. Once it's shipped, I'll notify you!"
"Brother Lei, do we really have to wait so many days? Our supplies are running low. Can we send someone out to procure some more and then come back?"
"It's been this long; do I need to teach you those rules? All delivery teams that arrive are strictly prohibited from leaving. This is also for your safety."
"Alright, I understand, Brother Lei."
Now she got it. If supplies were insufficient, they could buy from their base's logistics!
"What about the price?"
"It'll only be about twenty to thirty percent higher than market price."
"Brother Lei, that's too much!"
"If you want to buy it, stop wasting my time!"
After listening for a long time without any substantial news, one thing was clear: this broker named Brother Lei was quite ruthless and didn't let any opportunity for profit slip by. He wasn't even afraid that his suppliers might unite against him!
It seems that no matter where you go, you can't escape people like this, like rats in a sewer! Disgusting and impossible to get rid of.
Lin Yao cast him a strange glance. You don't seem like someone with a strong sense of justice. Why are you so angry all of a sudden?
I just can't stand people like that.
Oh, were you sold off before?
Upon hearing this, Ma Gan Shao immediately reacted as if someone had stepped on his tail, quickly retorting, I wasn't!
Lin Yao showed a look of disbelief.
Ma Gan Shao felt a bit embarrassed and quickly changed the subject. It's so boring in here; I want to go out for a stroll. Don't you?
If it were anyone else saying this, Lin Yao would definitely roll her eyes and retort, Do you even hear what you're saying?
But this young man was mysterious and unpredictable, which piqued her interest. How do we get out?
I have a mini transporter here. The walls of this prison can’t block abilities; we can pass through them. Plus, I have an invisibility cloak that can make us invisible and mask our presence. There’s not much technology here, so we should be able to wander around freely!
As Ma Gan Shao spoke, he pulled out something the size of a button along with two black cloaks.
Before Lin Yao could say anything, the sign-in system announced a sign-in prompt.
Detected sign-in point [Mini Space Transporter]. Would you like to sign in at this point?
Lin Yao realized that this sign-in system was quite clever; as long as relevant items appeared, whether they were still in research or completed products, it would recognize them.
So it doesn't produce sign-in points but rather serves as a mover for sign-in items?
Moreover, the points required weren't low; it seemed that this item was quite advanced.
In front of others, Lin Yao couldn't act too openly. After quickly signing in, she picked up one of the cloaks from the ground.
What is this? After examining it briefly and finding no issues, she put it on just like Ma Gan Shao did.
An invisibility cloak!
Lin Yao was surprised as she held the cloak and examined it closely. It didn't seem to have any high-tech features at all, so she had to give up on figuring it out.
Once the invisibility cloak was on, Ma Gan Shao was about to activate the transporter when Lin Yao pulled him back.
Do you have any extra cloaks?
What for?
Lin Yao pointed to the person they had previously seen sneaking around at the cave entrance and said, "If you don't want to turn back and deal with this bunch of rats in the gutter yourself, then bring him along. I estimate he can help you clear up those troubles."
Ma Gan glanced at the person and muttered that it was really a hassle, but he still obediently stepped forward to call the young man over.
"I can't be bothered to explain; you can talk to him," Lin Yao said.
"On the way here, you were able to chat with someone you didn't even know. Are you really too lazy to say anything now?" Ma Gan retorted.
Not wanting to take on more responsibility, especially with a suspected undercover agent around, Lin Yao was more than willing to bring him along.
"Here's the thing: when I entered the cave, I happened to see you throw something," Lin Yao continued.
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately displayed a wary expression.
"Look, I mean no harm," Lin Yao reassured him, glancing at Ma Gan.
Ma Gan quickly understood and introduced himself, "You can call me Su Rui."
"Yes, our Su Rui here has some advanced technology. He can walk through walls and become invisible. He was just about to go out for a stroll and asked if you'd like to join him," Lin Yao explained.
This sounded rather strange, but for those who understood, it needed no further elaboration.
"Absolutely!" the young man replied without hesitation.
"Then let's go now," Su Rui said.
In the vast darkness of the prison, three people huddled together chatting quietly, which might not attract much attention. However, if they suddenly vanished into thin air, it would likely cause quite a stir.
Fortunately, Su Rui had plenty of advanced technology at his disposal. Before activating the transporter, he tossed out a cloaking device to cover their movements.
Seeing Su Rui's actions, the young man couldn't help but ask, "What kind of cloaking device is that? It feels quite extraordinary."
Su Rui was not friendly towards him. "Hmph, country bumpkin."
As Su Rui activated the transporter, a slight sensation of rotation enveloped them, and soon they found themselves in an unfamiliar corridor.
Su Rui put away the transporter and said to Lin Yao, "This is a mini spatial transporter; it's not some low-grade tool for walking through walls."
Lin Yao immediately praised him with a thumbs-up. "That's impressive! How much can this transporter hold? What's the maximum distance it can cover?"
