Chapter 203: Forming the [Jackal] Group Chat, Sudden Probe
"This effect... truly worthy of an epic-grade facility."
Several combination designs based on the traps quickly appeared in Yu Yuan's mind.
He soon had an idea.
He first confirmed that the quantity of materials in the Shelter Resource Management Log was sufficient.
Only then did he begin the setup.
The purpose of this pit trap was very clear: it was prepared for the Giant Mutant Rat. Therefore, Yu Yuan placed spike traps along the longer two side walls and the bottom of the pit.
This way, even if the pit's immobilization duration ended, these one-meter-long spikes would still provide a certain hindrance.
After all, the pit's exit was only 3 meters wide!
Furthermore, he connected the spike traps inside the pit to the generator room, establishing a dedicated high-voltage circuit.
As long as a single spike from the trap pierced the giant rat's body, it would instantly experience the power of 'ten thousand volts'.Finally, Yu Yuan built two flamethrowers on the shorter pit walls, one at each end.
Once activated, this pit would instantly transform into a high-temperature furnace.
Looking at the "Pit Trap (Final Version)" displayed on the virtual light screen, Yu Yuan suddenly paused.
He stroked his chin, examining it carefully.
"This looks somewhat familiar!"
"Hiss—it looks a lot like a coffin!"
Good grief!
Kill, burn, and finally bury—it's practically a full-service funeral package.
But Yu Yuan was very satisfied.
"This is the plan!"
As Yu Yuan confirmed the construction plan, the pit trap was once again enveloped by the light screen, and the corresponding materials in the warehouse vanished.
Satisfied, Yu Yuan returned to the shelter.
The Jackal team had already finished sorting that batch of supplies, placing them all in the warehouse. They were now gathered around Yu Yuan's equipment rack, admiring it.
Eagle Eye, in particular, looked at that TRGM10 bolt-action sniper rifle with a flash of envy in his eyes.
Yu Yuan pointed and said, "The shooting range is right next door. Go fire a few rounds! Don't worry about equipment. Tomorrow, when we get to the Black Shield Police Department, Carmen will help you sort it out. I guarantee you'll be spoiled for choice!"
Upon hearing this, Eagle Eye's eyes widened.
"King, may I go try it?"
"Mhm, go ahead!"
The others followed Eagle Eye to the shooting range.
Yu Yuan then called Alpha to the third-floor living area.
The Commander Subordinate Chip injector gun appeared in his hand.
"We'll use this for communication from now on. It's safer and faster."
Following Yu Yuan's gesture, Alpha exposed the back of his neck.
*Pfft...*
As the chip was injected, Yu Yuan soon received a connection request to access the system.
After approval, the Wolf Den·Commander System gained another Member.
Under Yu Yuan's instruction, Alpha quickly familiarized himself with the chip's various functions and operations.
He immediately changed his chip name to Alpha.
"You'll teach the others how to use this chip later!"
"Understood!"
At that moment, Fang's voice rang out.
"Food's ready!"
All members of Jackal gathered in the core living area.
Although the food was just heated canned goods and noodles, everyone ate with relish.
After the meal, Yu Yuan checked the time and was startled to realize it was already 10 AM on Day 36.
That batch of Commander Subordinate Chips he had ordered was also completed.
Under Alpha's guidance, all members of Jackal except for Doctor successfully connected to the Wolf Den·Commander System.
Yu Yuan then established a Connection for all of them, forming a group chat labeled Jackal.
This way, everyone in this group chat could communicate directly without needing Yu Yuan to relay messages, avoiding delays in information transmission due to special circumstances.
The members of the Jackal team truly lived up to being elites; each person's talent was quite formidable.
Alpha — Coordinated Operations
Fang — Intelligence Expert
Veteran — Tactical Proficiency
...
Basically, everyone's talent complemented their current role and positioning perfectly, with extremely accurate specialization.
Yu Yuan now had only one Commander Subordinate Chip remaining.
This one was prepared for Mona.
"Doctor, your chip will be ready in a couple of days!"
"Understood. Alpha and the others infiltrating the Black Shield Police Department need it more. Sister Fang, as intelligence personnel, also must maintain contact with Alpha and them!" Doctor smiled and pointed to his own head, saying,
"Actually, I'd rather stay in the lab."
Yu Yuan shook his head with a smile, then looked at Alpha and the others.
"You've all been through a lot. Go rest! Starting tomorrow, it's the real tough fight. Conserve your energy."
"This place is very safe. Sleep soundly and without worry."
Alpha led the others to rest, but Fang handed a set of coordinates to Yu Yuan.
"King, this is the location where we previously stored supplies. Those five barrels of fuel oil from our mission a few days ago are also there. We must retrieve them before the cold wave arrives."
Taking the note, Yu Yuan saw the coordinates were in the Western Wasteland.
"Western Wasteland... Alright, I got it. Leave it to me! You and Doctor go rest too."
As all the Jackal members went to rest.
The shelter became quiet once more.
Only then did Yu Yuan let out a long sigh of relief.
Having lived alone for so long, he really wasn't used to having so many people suddenly in the shelter!
Yu Yuan lit a cigarette and vigorously rubbed his temples.
As he exhaled the smoke, his tangled thoughts gradually settled.
"Jackal has returned. We enter the Black Shield Police Department tomorrow. Plus Carmen. The layout within the Black Shield Police Department is complete...."
"Hogg has confirmed activation of werewolf traits. According to The Covenant, werewolves and vampires have a nemesis bond... There are still three days left in the Ceasefire Token's protection period... That Xiao Wu from Moss Cottage, I hope he doesn't disappoint me!"
"The only variable is the Aurora Animal Assistance Association. Mona hasn't sent any news these past two days. I hope nothing unexpected happens! But calculating the time, it should be soon!"
"Next time we meet, the Regional Event—Mysterious Religious Ritual should probably be completed. A Silver-grade timed mission, I wonder what title path it will reward. Thinking about it, I'm actually a bit excited!"
"That Dale guy seems alright. When he arrives, I can hand over cultivating the mealworms and establishing the underground farm to him. Right, he seems to be a research professor too. Maybe he and Doctor can exchange some ideas!"
"Finally...." A playful glint flashed in Yu Yuan's eyes.
"It's that big rat! This guy's bloodlust right now is no joke. With its sense of smell and intelligence, it must have caught my scent long ago. Yet it's been lurking around my periphery all this time. What exactly does it want to do?"
"Fortunately, I've already prepared its death coffin. Just... when will you come out?"
It was at that moment Yu Yuan suddenly paused.
Because on the combat detector, a bright red dot appeared at the very edge of the detection range.
This red dot was abnormally large, far exceeding any creature he had seen before.
And just seconds after this red dot appeared within the detection range, it suddenly retreated rapidly and disappeared.
After more than ten minutes, Yu Yuan looked at the still unresponsive combat detector and understood the other party had left.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
"So... you couldn't hold back after all, came to test the waters?
