CIATB Chapter 1568 Patrol
Chapter 1568 Patrol
Chapter 1568 Patrol
After being forced to open for business, Lu Ping'an still did not get the vacation he longed for.
Lu Ping'an also has his own life. Not only that, but he has a lot of it. But now, endless meetings and meetings fill up his schedule.
"I came here to fight, but how come I became an office worker? And I work 24 hours a day!"
Anyone who has served as a department leader knows that if you are doing a real job rather than a pension, then you are actually responsible for the real round-the-clock work. It's all your job, and as long as you want to do it, you will always be busy.
However, if you reach a certain level of position, just a secretarial team is not enough. You need at least two-digit staff members around your responsibilities. The so-called XX Office and XX Working Committee are your agents and extensions of your will. They have completed most of the work before the meeting, so you just need to speak and sign with confidence.
Lu Ping'an adjusted his mentality. Before the war broke out, he was just a mascot who earned a salary. But his identity and position were there. As the nominal head of a military region, even just attending various publicity activities that could not be refused made him a little overwhelmed.
Six shows a day, from morning to midnight, and various dances at midnight. After returning, there are summary meetings and reports to be written.
".Wait, why should I go to work honestly? Can't I just run away?"
It seems like it really works!
Does it seem irresponsible? But in fact, if he is not there, it is his subordinates who will do these tasks in the professional and well-staffed propaganda department.
Lu Ping'an was surprised to find that as long as he was there, he had to be invited to handle many tasks. But now he didn't have any department to handle the tasks, and he had not even been to the General Staff Department twice. It would be better to simply delegate power.
"Run away."
Lu Ping'an has some conscience, but not much.
He directly applied for patrol and then ran away. The only thing that could be considered conscientious was that he left behind the secretariat of the Rebirth Chamber of Commerce to do some contact work, which also meant that he was still on the job in name only.
The military region is still in the process of reorganizing and preparing for war, and Lu Ping'an has basically no substantive work to do. He is not a member of the official army, so it is better for him to let the people below do the work themselves.
"Let's go. Let's prepare for the meeting with Ms. Lin. Oh, and there's also work in the ancient city."
The agreed meeting place was finally confirmed in the ancient city, and Lu Ping'an did complete his reporting work before returning.
He followed the coastline, stepping on a big shark, patrolling at high speed on the water and underwater. Not to mention, he didn't find the eighth-level monster like last time, but he encountered a lot of various aquatic monsters.
On the seabed where there are no terrain restrictions, Lu Ping'an's True Eye can play the greatest role. When this lone hunter approaches at the highest speed, even a giant whale will fall in an instant.
Dozens, hundreds, over a thousand. When Lu Ping'an completed his patrol and brought back a series of evidence and trophies, his mood became worse.
It wasn't because he encountered any powerful enemy, he himself was a legion, and only an equal legion could stop him, but he hunted too many along the way.
Some of them were obviously sentinels of alien races, but at least 80% were unaffiliated scattered forces.
There are exotic sea beasts, wild fishmen, and exotic races that Lu Ping'an himself cannot identify.
Their weapons are simple and their equipment is crude. They look like just ordinary soldiers and can hardly survive more than ten seconds in front of Lu Ping'an. But once these "trasher" come ashore, they can easily kill dozens or even hundreds of people.
There were too many of them, so many that even Lu Ping'an couldn't kill them all.
This time, Lu Pingan felt a little embarrassed.
"The more we take it seriously, the more we are constrained. If it was Mercury 42 or other star fields, we, the foreign explorers, would probably think that it would be better if we could stop it. If we can't stop it, it's just bad luck. But now, we are trying to minimize the losses."
Lu Ping'an sighed. This was an almost impossible task.
He had already cleared the coastline and killed at least one or two thousand, but even among the unknown creatures within his reconnaissance range, more than 95% were still alive. He vaguely felt that in the shadow of the trench, there was life that he could not detect.
Even if he cleaned it up repeatedly, it wouldn't make much sense. In the places where he killed, if you only looked at the numbers, the monsters and aliens were increasing. He killed more than the other side came faster.
“This is still near the sea”
What is hindering them the most now is not even the incomplete defense line of mankind, but the local atmosphere and other natural environments.
The quantity is too much.
And these are probably just people who swam across from the sea. They may just be subconsciously looking for the mainland, and they don't even realize that they are foreign invaders.
"Has the Southern Islands not collapsed yet?"
"In fact, there have been only small-scale clashes, and the outsiders still need time to adapt to the environment. But several islands have already fallen, and the islanders are still fighting hard, and various countries receive more than a dozen letters for help every day."
Lu Ping'an shook his head. He actually interrogated those outsiders.
They themselves are in chaos. These are actually just cannon fodder, but for the invading foreign tribes, throwing a million people as cannon fodder is just a prelude.
But if we allow these lives to survive and roam around in this ocean, it will bring endless disasters to the world.
It is worth mentioning that he also discovered that the various military regions that were temporarily formed had begun to build their own offshore defense lines. What they said was all false. Only patrols with sufficient numbers of troops could carry out interception, and this could only be done by the new military regions that directly transferred troops from other ocean worlds.
"Well done."
"I helped you get rid of that rule-level person. His people have become defeated soldiers. You go and clean them up."
"There's a big guy in the southwest. I'll try to intercept him. If I'm lucky, I can get rid of him. You guys take care of the aftermath."
Along the way, Lu Ping'an also helped out a lot.
He was surprised to find that his underwater flexibility and adaptability were actually higher than those of the exotic fishmen. His adaptability to the ocean was actually very average, mainly because those fishmen who had not yet adapted to the environment were lagging behind, while Lu had adapted to the ocean environments of multiple worlds at the same time.
And he went once, was too lazy to report for a meeting, and cleaned up again.
As a result, this "youngest lieutenant general in the military region" became famous, and a large number of thank-you letters were sent to the headquarters of the Second Battalion.
Lu Ping'an himself was a little confused. His cleaning ability alone even exceeded the limit of a military region. His high underwater speed and the Eye of Truth that ignored distance made him overestimate the underwater combat capabilities of ordinary soldiers.
Most patrol teams can still only circle on the water surface, and it is impossible to catch up with the fishmen once they run away.
Even if those warriors try their best, they may still be walked around in the end. The gap in mobility is unsolvable at this time.
But Lu Ping'an is different. If you want to intercept him, it is better to send a quasi-god.
His efforts directly halved the coastal homicide rate that week, from an average of more than a dozen per day to a few per day. The sea level was still too high, and no one could stop all those who came ashore.
What Lu Ping'an expected also happened. A real estate crisis occurred in the coastal areas. A large number of middle-class people abandoned their properties and fled, while real estate prices in inland areas actually rose.
During the patrol process, Lu Ping'an also met his colleagues. Many military regions began to use high-ranking soldiers for patrols. Although this was obviously unsustainable, it could be used to respond to emergencies and buy time for the organization's defense line.
"Is there no better way?"
"Yes, such as deploying strong herds of animals (sharks) near the coast, placing mines, and polluting the water quality near the coast to create dead fish areas."
"It seems that there is really no limit to what I can do in the Life Department."
Although he said so, Lu Ping'an still did nothing in the end. After all, this is Earth, and he still has their home planet.
"The more I take it seriously, the more I feel restricted. I kind of miss foreign lands. At least I can just kill people at will."
