"How can we know where they are going without tracking them?" the gerbil said strangely, "You mean relying on satellites?"
Lin Rui shook his head, "The power of technology is very useful, but not everything must rely on technology. Satellites have operating cycles and are not synchronous satellites that are synchronous with the earth. They cannot be fixed above their heads.
If they conceal themselves well enough, not even satellites can detect them.
There is another method called tracking. Although very old and primitive, they are usually very practical. "
"Let's go, it's time for us to take action." Zhao Jianfei nodded to him.
Following the underground culvert, he came out of a dry well outside the city.
Lin Rui quickly identified the direction, and then pointed, "Go that way. Their convoy drove from the checkpoint to the desert. So we should be able to find their traces there."
The towering sand mountains separate the vast desert into deep ravines.
The gerbil people prepared several camels and a very old car for them. Right in the dry well. A nearby access point.
Lin Rui is no stranger to camels. These camels in the African desert run very fast, galloping freely on the golden desert, while the car crawls up and down like a beetle.
Before entering the desert, Zhao Jianfei deflated some of the air in the tires.
It not only prevents tire blowouts caused by excessive tire pressure due to the high temperature of the sand surface, but also increases the contact area between the tire and the sand surface so that the vehicle can drive safely in the desert.
African natives have many unique abilities, and tracking is one of them. This unique ability, originally used to track down prey, can also be used to find traces of convoys in the desert.
And Lin Rui¡¯s tracking technology was learned from the black man Quentin.
There is nothing in this area except some shrubs and thorny grass. There is a thin layer of crust on the red sand, which is relatively soft. Every step you take will leave clear footprints.
Lin Rui shook his head, "They were driving, and the sand is too soft. So they should avoid it."
There is a desert ahead, no sand, only bare rocks. When Lin Rui and others passed the hill on their camels, they deliberately took a detour, as if they had changed their direction.
After bypassing the rock, Lin Rui carefully moved forward among the small stalls of sand and gravel, deliberately avoiding the loose stones.
Lin Rui lowered his head from time to time and carefully observed the traces on the road.
After walking a few hundred meters, it seemed that the convoy had left no trace.
When Lin Rui rode his camel to the edge of the rock, he changed direction and headed towards the mountain in the distance.
Every few minutes he turned back, always weaving between collapsed anthills or through dense undergrowth.
Two hours passed, and their team moved forward while searching.
Zhao Jianfei couldn't stand the dryness of the desert, so he hid in the shadow behind a large boulder to rest while lighting a cigarette.
"Go this way." Lin Rui suddenly made a gesture.
"But there is nothing here." The magician was a little confused.
"No, there are still traces." Lin Rui smiled, holding a small broken branch in his hand, which is a very short desert plant.
"When their convoy passed by, they broke it. The direction in which the plant fell under the force told me that he changed direction there and crossed the hill.
Went in that direction. "
Everyone looked around suspiciously, and sure enough, they found obvious wheel marks at the location directed by Lin Rui.
"How did you do it?" The magician was a little strange.
¡°Part of it was learned from Quentin when I was training, and part of it was learned from the local indigenous people.¡± Lin Rui replied.
¡°In the past, in order to survive, indigenous people had to develop excellent tracking skills. This hunting culture is still passed down in Africa.
Nowadays, children in European and American countries no longer need to go deep into the barren mountains to find food. They only need to go to local shops to buy fried chicken or hamburgers.
There are hard concrete pavements everywhere in the city, and such technology has long been out of use.
But there are some things that scouts still need to master. "Zhao Jianfei smiled.
Lin Rui lowered his head and looked at the wheel marks he found. "They're going that way."
"The fact that the speed is not very fast means that they are close enough to their destination." Lin Rui nodded.
"How do you know?"Do you think this can be seen? asked the gerbil.
"You can see it. If they go faster and faster, they can directly pass through the sand dunes.
And the fact that they chose to go in this direction shows that their speed is not high.
¡°Either I don¡¯t want to leave too obvious traces, or I¡¯m not far from my destination.
And from a mechanism point of view, if something happens to them in this area. Other Oromia federal ministries could come as quickly as possible. And don't have to wait too long. Lin Rui explained.
"Yes, it makes sense." Zhao Jianfei nodded.
¡°And I don¡¯t know if you have noticed that the rocks we just discovered are all in roughly regular shapes.
Although it is in the desert, it is very weathered. But I'm sure these stones are processed.
There are many similar stones in this area. This stone is most likely from ancient ruins.
Of course, in ancient times, these stones may have been more exquisite and beautiful.
But because it is exposed to the surface, the sand blown by the wind continues to erode. It has become what it is now due to severe weathering over the years.
And the secret arsenal of the secret society organization can be related to those ancient ruins hidden under the sand.
So I can conclude that we are very close to our goal. This underground facility should be near where we are.
But if this is the case, the current situation is actually very dangerous.
It means that we are very close to the enemy, and they are hiding and we are hiding. We have to be very careful. "
"But even if there are these stones, it doesn't prove that this is the enemy's secret arsenal." The gerbil was a little confused.
"I think the secret arsenal is here. Because the reason is simple. This is not a pure desert, but close to the desert Gobi terrain.
In addition, there are some sparse desert plants on the surface, which is the best location to cover the underground entrance.
You think, if it is in a pure desert. The wind is so powerful that the entrances to underground facilities may be covered by strong winds and sand at any time.
But it¡¯s different here. These large rocks protruding from the surface can be used as a reference. It can also prevent the entrance of underground facilities from being covered by a large amount of wind and sand. "Zhao Jianfei lowered his voice.
"And only this kind of terrain is truly suitable for hiding." The magician also nodded.
