The curtain slowly fell, and a bright moon hung high in the sky.

On the top of Huwang Ridge in Xixia District, a mechanical beast with a shiny silver metallic luster was quietly squatting on the peak of this not-so-high mountain.

In the moonlight, it could be seen clearly that its size was much smaller than that of an adult tiger or leopard.

And it was one of the three mechanical lives brought back by Sun Cheng from another world, "Safeguard".

Under the moonlight, Safeguard was squatting quietly on the top of the mountain peak, and a group of eerie expressions like a grin appeared on its slightly ferocious beast head.

"...Interesting reptiles, I finally found you..."

In Safeguard's pair of deep blue electronic eyes, the light was constantly flickering.

Continuous data was being transmitted from a stealth drone hovering more than 2,000 meters low over a remote suburb in a certain district of Nandu, 37 kilometers away from it.

After receiving the data transmitted by the optical stealth reconnaissance drone, Safeguard's eyes showed a series of clear video images.

"...Master, Safeguard reports to you. The current target coordinates are north latitude xxxx, east longitude xxxx. I will immediately transmit the images tracked and photographed by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft to you..."

Just after transmitting the data it had received, a few minutes later, Safeguard suddenly froze, and it jumped up from its squatting position, leaping from the top of the nearly 200-meter-high Huwang Ridge and landing steadily on the ground.

At the moment of landing, Safeguard flexibly kicked the ground and jumped onto a protruding rock at the foot of the mountain. Then it jumped down again and ran rapidly on the ground. In less than thirty seconds, it had arrived at the yard of several factory buildings built by Hongyuan Group in front of the mountain.

The gate of the factory building was quickly opened, and a large SUV slowly drove into the empty and desolate yard in the dark.

After the car was turned off, a young human figure quickly got out of the car.

Safeguard walked calmly to the side and respectfully lowered its head.

"Master, you're here!"

The person who came was Sun Cheng!

Sun Cheng nodded slightly and made a soft sound as a response. He was not surprised that Safeguard knew he was coming and came here to greet him.

Safeguard had once set up hundreds of monitoring devices within ten kilometers near Base One.

Although in the previous period of time, Sun Cheng had purchased a large number of cement wall panels from two construction companies, preparing to enclose the land near him, he had already let Safeguard recover most of the monitoring devices. However, the cement wall panels nearly three meters high had already enclosed the base, and a large number of monitoring devices had been redeployed in the area.

He gently reached out and touched his shoulder. Xiao Wu, who had turned into a miniature Decepticon, was now standing on his shoulder.

As soon as he grabbed it, Xiao Wu turned back into a mobile phone shape. It was playing the data transmitted by Safeguard to Sun Cheng.

"It's getting interesting..."

Sun Cheng put Xiao Wu, who had turned back into a mobile phone, back into his pocket, and his eyebrows moved imperceptibly.

He had already watched the video images taken by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft transmitted by Safeguard on the car. With the joint efforts of Revenge and Safeguard, Revenge had determined the vehicles that might have invaded his villa in the afternoon from the hundreds of thousands of images captured by the Nandu traffic monitoring system in just over an hour after receiving his order.

"Then, Safeguard activated an unmanned reconnaissance drone that had been sealed in Base One. Utilizing its computing power that far exceeded that of a drone control system, it personally commanded the drone, which applied optical stealth technology, to follow the trajectory calculated by Revenge and track the vehicle that was constantly evading surveillance in the city and cautiously heading towards the outskirts.

The entire process took only a little over two hours, and they astonishingly locked onto the vehicle.

"Master, do you need me to move immediately?"

Safeguard raised its head slightly and looked at Sun Cheng with a fierce beast face full of killing intent.

Its sharp metal fangs reflected the moonlight in the dark night, and even Sun Cheng's eyes narrowed when he looked at it.

After a moment of contemplation, he nodded slowly, "Leave one alive, I have some questions to ask. As for the rest, make it clean and don't leave any traces!"

"Yes!"

After Safeguard got his permission, the light in its blue electronic eyes suddenly became intense. After answering with a fierce smile, it jumped up and leaped onto the two-meter-high factory building next to it, quickly disappearing into the night.

Sun Cheng couldn't help but look in the direction where it disappeared for a while before retracting his gaze.

After locking the iron door of the factory, he calmly walked up the mountain from the other side and headed towards Base One hidden in the valley.

...

After driving the car into the garage, Linping turned off the engine and pulled out the key. Thompson, a young white man sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but yawn.

"Hey, boss. You don't have to be so careful..."

He rubbed his butt and complained while holding his laptop computer.

It's not surprising that he couldn't help but complain. After leaving the apartment rented by the target of today's mission in the afternoon, Linping drove this car for a full four hours in this international metropolis that can be ranked in the world, avoiding countless surveillance cameras and circling around one after another before they finally returned to their temporary residence in the city.

Linping glanced at him, "Being careful is always right!"

Unlike William Chen, a CIA senior agent who mysteriously disappeared in China not long ago, Linping was developed by the US intelligence agency when he went to study in the United States in the late 20th century. Moreover, he is older than William Chen and has returned to his motherland several times for missions, so he naturally understands China's counterintelligence capabilities.

Besides, this is Nan Du, the administrative center of this Far Eastern power. It is not too careful to be careful.

Otherwise, just look at William Chen, and you will know how he disappeared. The CIA still doesn't know the situation."
