Chapter 3388: Desolate land

Armed with a bumpy pickup, Lin Rui sat back in the co-pilot position and looked at Sergey and said, "Nothing is wrong, right?"
"You have to come here a while later, and something will happen." Sergey said bitterly.
"What the do you think, knowing that these extremist armed forces are openly operating in the town, the number of people will certainly not be small. How can you still dare to steal their car?" Lin Rui couldn't help but said, "If you steal a car, steal the car. , You were arrested, so you still tell us all the time what super-secure museum you have stolen?"
"I didn't expect this to happen. How did I know there were so many armed terrorists. After I got in the car, two people came immediately behind them. They directly jammed me in the traffic, plus there were four or five automatic rifles in the front. So, I'm either caught or beaten into a sieve, what else can I do?" Sergey annoyed.
"Can't you hide from those extremists and steal a car at random?" Crazy Horse was also dumbfounded.
"Nonsense, don't I think this car is suitable for our mission?" Sergey shook his head.
Lin Rui shook his head, "Forget it, let's not talk about it now. We still have work to do. Sausage, check the GPS location of the target, we have to keep up with the convoy of those slave traders. And Crazy Horse, hurry up. The extremist flag on the car was taken down and thrown away. I don’t want this thing to become a target of anti-terrorist forces. If it was because of the broken car flying the jihadist flag, it was killed by the joint anti-terrorist force, then It's a joke."
Crazy Horse tore off the flag with extremist slogans on the car, but did not throw it away, but stuffed it in his pocket. "Just throw it away. The road is not peaceful. If you encounter the armed forces of the Jihad Alliance, you may be able to get through."
"The goal is in the southwest. Our route is basically accurate." Sausage responded. "It's far away from us, we can go after it with confidence, they won't find it at all. Wait!"
"What's the matter?" Lin Rui frowned.
"They seem to have stopped. The coordinates have not changed much, but there have been minor changes. This shows that the convoy has arrived. They should be getting off and walking." Sausage looked at the computer screen strangely.
"Remember the position of the coordinates, call up a satellite image based on the coordinates, and see where it is, including the surrounding terrain?" Lin Rui said immediately.
Sausage stared at the computer screen and said, "I'm retrieving it. The satellite image is downloading. It looks like a hilly area. The surrounding area is very desolate. There are no buildings or villages around. The locals call it Baraka Valley, meaning ancient times. River valley. This terrain may have been formed by ancient rivers, but now there is no water, just a dry valley. There is only a small amount of water at the southernmost end. You can’t see anything from the satellite image."
Lin Rui nodded and said, "The dry valley area is convenient for hiding and making it difficult to find traces of mining. Vehicles driving under huge ravines will not be discovered by people. This is most likely the mining camp of the secret society."
Sausage looked at the computer and said, "About 30 kilometers away, there is a proven uranium mine. It's just that no one has ever thought that there will be uranium mines in that terrain. Now it seems that there may be natural uranium mines. The extension of the vein, or another independent vein system. No matter what kind of possibility, there are enough secret agencies to set up a pirate mining base, and it is difficult to be detected."
"However, uranium mines are the source of the economy of the Niger government. Would they ignore it?" Crazy Horse shook his head.
"Because no one knows there are uranium mines. Uranium exploration is a technical task, and the Niger government has no relevant exploration capabilities. Usually they cooperate with the French, and the French are responsible for exploration and mining. They just wait to collect the money." Scarface shook his head and said, "If no one knows that there is a uranium mine there, it is just a barren land for the Niger government. No one cares about the situation there."
Lin Rui whispered, "How long do we need to arrive?"
"It's hard to say that our straight-line distance is more than 40 kilometers, but the terrain there is complicated and it may take longer. Moreover, it is easy for them to spot us in advance. It only requires a few small remote-controlled drones, or A few camera balloons can see the surrounding situation clearly, but they are hiding under the valley, but it is difficult for us to find them." Sausage whispered.
"I can't take care of so much, let's go there to see the situation first." Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Sergey, just look around a little bit smartly. Last time you were in trouble, there were still us. But this time If there is more trouble, we will be served in one pot."
"Understood, otherwise we would park the car around when we approached there, and we approached on foot. This way our targets would appear small and scattered, and the possibility of exposure would be much lower." Sergey whispered.
"This is a way." Crazy Horse whispered, "If we hide in the area close to the target location, search the past along the way to see where the slave traders' cars come out. This kind of heavy truck drives at the bottom of the valley. It is easy to leave marks. Tire marks and the oil dripping on the ground can point us to the correct position. Even if they hide well, it is difficult for them to escape our eyes in this regard."
Lin Rui nodded and agreed to their plan. Sure enough, it took them nearly an hour and a half to reach the gully area at a straight line of more than 40 kilometers as Sausage said. There seems to be only a few scattered plants here, most of which are dry and cracked reddish soil, and also some weathered and cracked stones.
Sergey hid the car in a hidden trough, and Lin Rui led the team members to walk closer to the target location. "Sausage, report the position." Lin Rui whispered.
"I'm here." Sausage whispered, "The target location is two kilometers away from us. It should be a lower position than here. We suggest that we start looking for the trough here, and we will definitely find some traces."
Lin Rui and others nodded and walked along the deep gully together. The gully below is very wide in wide areas, but also very narrow in narrow areas. In fact, just relying on them, it is impossible to search every area completely. However, Crazy Horse, Lin Rui and others are very proficient in detecting traces. Soon, they found a trace. There were obviously traces of crushed by the truck after driving.
The first person to spot this trace was the scar face. Lin Rui squatted down and looked at it in a low voice, "Judging from the tire traces, they should have come in from another location. The tire traces are not deep. The slave has been unloaded."
