Reborn, I want to be the richest man!
Chapter 164
At dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun was like a golden-red veil, draped softly over the winding transport road, but it failed to inject any warmth into the scene that was about to be swallowed by darkness and chaos. I seemed to be led by an invisible giant hand, standing in the monitoring room of the company headquarters with my feet floating, my eyes glued to the real-time picture of the transport convoy flickering on the screen, my heart seemed to be grabbed by an invisible and rough hand, throbbing with pain, and anxiety surged in my heart like a tide.
Lao Wang, the captain of the transport convoy, is an old driver who has been working in the transport industry for decades and is as experienced as the big clock in the ancient temple in the mountains that has experienced vicissitudes of life but is still stable. At this moment, his face, which was originally engraved with the traces of time, was painted with a solemn color, as if he was wearing an extremely heavy lead mask. His eyes, like those of an eagle that could see through all illusions, warily patrolled the seemingly calm but actually mysterious road conditions around him. The wrinkles on his forehead, like those carved by the sharp blade of time, became deeper due to his inner tension, as if each of them concealed endless worries and fears about unknown dangers. He was like a general commanding on the battlefield, calmly giving orders through the walkie-talkie: "Brothers, be extremely alert. This mission is as important as the precious stars in the sky. We cannot afford even the smallest mistake. We are like loyal guards protecting rare treasures. We must escort these spacecraft parts to the base safely. Otherwise, how can we face the millions of people who are eagerly waiting, and how can we face the affectionate call of the vast universe?" His voice was a little hoarse from long-term travel, but it was as loud as a bell, revealing unquestionable determination and courage. His rough and calloused hands, like two pliers, tightly grasped the steering wheel, his knuckles turned a dazzling blue-white color due to excessive force, as if he was holding the last indestructible line of defense to protect the safety of the convoy, and it seemed that he was having a silent but thrilling contest with the unknown god of fate.
The security guard Xiao Li who followed the car was as young and vigorous as the rising sun. In his eyes, there was a burning fighting spirit that was hot enough to burn away all the darkness and evil in the world, like the brightest star in the night sky, ready to jump into the dangerous vortex that might surge at any time, and use his flesh and blood to build a steel wall to protect the convoy. He was like a warrior who carefully wiped his beloved weapon before going out to battle. He checked the gun in his hand meticulously, and encouraged himself silently in his heart: "Humph, no matter who the evil spirits are, if they dare to covet these precious parts, we will never let them succeed. I am the solid shield that stands in front of the danger. Even if I am broken into pieces, I will protect the convoy and ensure that the hope of exploring the universe is not extinguished." His movements were clean and neat, as natural and smooth as flowing clouds and water. Every subtle detail was carefully considered.Every move seemed to contain a thousand pounds of strength. The pine-like figure seemed particularly firm in the cramped space of the carriage, like an ancient hill that had stood firm for thousands of years, ready to resist the storm with its majestic body.
However, this false calm was easily pierced like a window paper as thin as a cicada's wing. In an instant, a sharp gunshot like a demon's hideous roar, like an extremely sharp blade, abruptly broke the originally peaceful and harmonious silence of the evening. From the gloomy and dense woods on both sides of the road, which seemed to hide countless crimes and conspiracies, a group of unknown armed forces rushed out like ghosts. They were dressed in black combat uniforms that seemed to blend into the darkness of the night, and their faces were covered with chilling masks, revealing only a pair of fierce, resolute and greedy eyes, like hungry wolves in the dark night, emitting a creepy and dangerous atmosphere. The bullets were like a torrential rain from the sky, pouring down on the convoy, hitting the body of the car, splashing a string of sparks like gorgeous fireworks but full of death and destruction. The scene was like a meteor shower that came suddenly without any signs, but the "shooting star" brought not the beauty and romance that people expected in their hearts, but the ferocious threat of death and destruction that was enough to make people shudder and break their hearts.
Old Wang was suddenly shocked, and his face, which was originally slightly vicissitudes, instantly turned as pale as white paper, as if all the vitality and energy were taken away. But he still relied on his iron will to stay calm and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Don't panic, follow the emergency plan, and speed up!" After that, he seemed to pour all his soul and strength into his feet, stepped on the accelerator hard, and the truck was like an angry bull that was completely enraged, roaring to the sky and running forward. The body of the truck shook violently due to the sudden acceleration, like a lonely boat sailing on the rough ocean, in danger of capsizing at any time. His eyes were filled with anxiety and determination, like two burning flames, staring at the road ahead that seemed to lead to the abyss of hell but had to be taken. His heart was burning with fire as he thought: "If these parts are destroyed, the entire space exploration program will be like an eagle without wings, trapped on the earth and unable to soar in the vast sky. All our previous efforts and hard work will be wasted and become dust in the long river of history. I will never let such a tragedy happen, even if I have to fight with my broken body and life, I will not hesitate."
Xiao Li was like a well-trained elite soldier, quickly recovering from the sudden shock. He was like an agile cheetah, leaning out of the car window, holding up his gun, and angrily fighting back at the attackers who were rushing in like a tide. His eyes were filled with endless anger and fearlessness, like a hero fighting on the battlefield. He shouted, "You evil villains, don't even think about it!" His marksmanship was so accurate that it seemed like a god's.Each bullet was like an angry roar from the bottom of his heart, with enough power to penetrate all evil, trying to repel those ghostly enemies. However, the enemy was numerous, like a dense swarm of ants, and their firepower was as fierce as an erupting volcano. They gradually fell into a desperate passive situation like a swamp.
In the monitoring room of the company's headquarters, everyone seemed to be cast under a spell, standing still in an instant, in an uproar. Security director Lao Zhang's eyes were as big as copper bells, and his wrinkled face was full of incredible astonishment. In his eyes, there was a flash of panic like a night walker encountering an evil ghost, and then, the firmness was like the sun penetrating the clouds at dawn, quickly replacing the panic. He was like a traveler who lost his way in the darkness but suddenly found a torch again. He clenched his fists, and the blue veins that bulged from the force looked like crawling earthworms. He gritted his teeth and said, "These lawless guys are too arrogant and domineering. They dared to attack us openly in broad daylight. They are forcing us into a dead end. We must race against time and organize support forces as soon as possible. We must not let them destroy these precious parts." After that, he quickly commanded his men to contact nearby security forces like a whirlwind. His movements were as fast as lightning across the night sky. He exuded a strong aura of calmness in the face of danger and command, like a battle-hardened general who was ready to start a thrilling, life-and-death battle with the menacing enemy.
I stared blankly at the chaotic and dangerous scene on the screen, my heart burning with anxiety, as if a blazing fireball was burning wildly in my chest, and I felt that my heart was about to burst through my chest and jump straight to my throat. "Who on earth are these people? How dare they destroy our plan so blatantly and recklessly? They are like a group of treacherous and cunning poisonous snakes hiding in the depths of darkness, ready to stick out their fangs full of venom and give us a fatal blow. If this spacecraft part encounters an accident, all the efforts of all of us who worked day and night and worked hard before will be like a sand sculpture swept by a gust of wind, instantly crumbling and turning into nothing. Our great and noble dream of space exploration will also be destroyed by this ruthless reality. It was smashed like an iron hammer, shattering into pieces all over the ground. No, I must find a way no matter what, even if I have to make a deal with the devil, I must keep them, even if there is only a ray of hope as thin as a hair. "I swore secretly in my heart, as if a devout believer swore an oath before God, beads of sweat rolled down my forehead like pearls with broken strings, my hands seemed to be controlled by an invisible force, unconsciously grasping the edge of the monitoring desk, my fingers trembled slightly due to the force, and the trembling seemed to convey the worry and anger in my heart. I stared at the screen intently, as if I wanted to use this fiery gaze to open up a smooth road to safety and victory for the brothers in the team, to help themWe escaped from this dangerous situation that seemed like hell.
As the exchange of fire continued, the vehicles in the convoy were like fragile flowers destroyed by a storm, and several of them were hit by the ruthless bullets. Some of those extremely precious spacecraft parts were smashed to pieces, like the broken wings of a wounded bird, scattered helplessly on the road, and like the seeds of hope trampled by the devil, making people feel heartbroken, as if their hearts were being tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, and they were in so much pain that they could not breathe. Lao Wang's car was not spared either. A bullet was like the sharp arrow of the god of death, accurately hitting the tire, and the body of the car suddenly tilted, like a drunken man, almost flipping over. His face became increasingly pale, as if he was shrouded by the shadow of the god of death, but he still gritted his teeth, like a warrior who was fighting against fate, trying to stabilize the car body, and kept repeating: "Don't fall, don't fall, these are all fruits of hope that everyone has watered with sweat and blood."
Xiao Li looked at the damaged parts, his eyes instantly reddened like ripe cherries, his heart full of self-blame and resentment: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault for not being able to protect them. If I were more brave and fearless, and more skilled in martial arts, what happened today would not have happened." His voice was choked with a hint of guilt and anger, but his hands seemed to be injected with infinite power, without slowing down at all, and continued to shoot at the enemy. Even if there was only the last bullet left, he was like a gambler who would never give up even the slightest hope of resistance.
At this critical moment, a siren like the god of hope sounded in the distance. The sound was like the first ray of light that penetrated the darkness at dawn, and it was like the loud horn that guided the warriors in desperate situations, cutting through the night sky filled with smoke and death. It turned out that the support force that Lao Zhang urgently contacted arrived in time. They were like divine soldiers and generals descended from the sky, and quickly surrounded the attackers. For a while, the situation was like the unpredictable chess game, and a reversal occurred. Those unknown armed forces saw that the situation was not good, and they began to flee in all directions like the hares being hunted by hunters, but in the end, there were still a few fish that escaped the net and were captured by the heroic security personnel.
Watching the enemy fleeing like a lost dog, I breathed a sigh of relief, as if I were a traveler who had narrowly escaped death on the edge of a cliff. My tense nerves were like a bowstring stretched to its limit, and finally relaxed a little. However, when my eyes touched the damaged parts, my mood suddenly became heavy as if it was pressed by a heavy lead block. "This attack is undoubtedly a wake-up call for us. The enemy has begun to use all means and do everything possible. We are like travelers groping forward in the dark forest, in the light, while they are hiding in the dark. Every link and every step may be attacked by their insidious attacks like a venomous snake. We must strengthen security measures in all directions and without blind spots, as if we were building an indestructible steel fortress for our plan. At the same time, we must quickly organize forces to repair thisWe must not let this accident become a stumbling block on our long journey of exploring the universe. We must make the plan move forward steadily along the predetermined trajectory, just like the precise movement of the stars. Even if there are difficulties and obstacles ahead, such as dense thorns and mountains of swords and seas of fire, we must move forward bravely and never retreat. "I slowly loosened my tightly clenched hands that were bulging with veins due to excessive force, like a tired soldier returning from the battlefield, rubbing my swollen and painful temples, my eyes were exhausted but as firm as the stars that never go out. I silently calculated the next response strategy in my heart, like a chess player who thought deeply in the chess game, ready to lead everyone to break through this sudden haze and continue to move forward bravely towards the grand goal of exploring the vast space. Even if the road ahead is long, full of unknowns and challenges, we must take a bright road that belongs to us.
