The Female Supporting Character in Quick Transmigration is Making a Comeback

Chapter 328 The Female Supporting Character's Husband is Going Bankrupt (48)

Currently, the other party is asking my country for help for 1 million US dollars, and the oil-rich country is even willing to give up 1% of the oil extraction rights free of charge. This is definitely a big fish.

"Xian'er, what do you think? They're sending you and Shining Armor. Do you agree?"

"Of course I agree! The higher-ups trust me, so of course I agree!"

"Okay, of course, my own safety is the priority. Rescuing those people is secondary. If I succeed, I'll give you half of the reward!"

"Uncle Li, I don't need the reward. I don't know what to do with the money. I'd rather leave it to the country!"

Old Li knew that when she said those words, it meant she had complete confidence in the task and understood it perfectly.

"Alright, I thank you on behalf of the country!"

They were then taken to the Desert of Death by a special plane. Before leaving, Luo Xian'er also requested two robots to accompany her.

These robots, after being modified by Shining Armor, have not yet officially gone on any missions.

This should be their first appearance, laying the foundation for future business.

Y City, the Desert of Death, is a place of constant sandstorms. Its main businesses include selling sand thorn fruit, sandboarding, and desert exploration.

Water is scarce here year-round, and it's a precious commodity. A bottle of mineral water can sell for 20 RMB, and food costs 5-6 times more than outside.

Colonel Kyle, the head of the oil-producing nation, was already waiting for them.

Through Colonel Kyle, it was learned that Prince Modoy had only intended to explore the edge of the desert, but upon hearing from the people of Y City that a mirage had appeared there,

Royal secrets record that places where mirages are said to exist may have actually existed. Modo felt that he was blessed by the true God and would surely find that legendary place.

They found a guide and followed his directions to the depths of the desert, until they lost contact with the outside world.

The assistant only reported this after failing to contact them. Previously, several helicopters had been dispatched to search, but without exception, the helicopters lost their way and went out of control when they were close to the center of the area. They were blown away by a strange wind and almost crashed, killing everyone on board.

Then they sent another car in, but it got lost somewhere and all the electronic devices stopped working.

The oil-rich nation, having exhausted all other options, turned to major international powers for help. Upon hearing that there was plenty of money to be made, those powers immediately dispatched personnel, who then went into the desert and never returned.

Oil-rich countries are in a panic, as are major international powers. If they can't find the missing persons, not only will their countries be in turmoil, but they will also lose face.

A high-ranking official from the oil-rich nation overheard N mentioning that the downfall of their first family had left no trace, and that it might be related to a certain major Eastern power. This is why N offered various conditions to seek their help.

So that's how it is. Luo Xian'er wasn't very confident either. In the last world, she was able to survive safely in the desert because of the space and the sign-in system. This time, it was just her and the Shining Armor. She didn't know what difficulties awaited them.

"Xian'er, don't forget me. Don't worry, I will never lose contact. I can lead the way in the desert!" Xiao Ba's voice popped out at the right time.

"Alright, then I'll trouble my little savior." Luo Xian'er turned to ask Shining Armor, "Shining Armor, will your communication device be online then?"

"Xian'er, I can't be sure either. My system has been upgraded, and I don't know much about what it's like inside. I can only be sure when something happens!"

"Alright, get ready, let's go!" Luo Xian'er felt that even if they couldn't find anyone, nothing would happen to them; at worst, they could hide in their spatial dimension.

Colonel Kyle, who was standing nearby, had also lived in the Eastern superpower before, so he could understand the conversation between the two. He tactfully beckoned his subordinates over and brought them backpacks.

The backpack contained daily necessities, water, bread, a portable tent, and a folding shovel...

These items are practical and lightweight, and carrying them will not affect your daily walking.

The two changed into special suits that could protect against sand and high temperatures, and the two robots were also kept completely covered from head to toe.

When General Kyle saw the two robots, he thought they had taken the wrong medicine, given the high temperature and their tight wrapping.

After Luo Xian'er explained that the two of them were highly skilled and unafraid of high temperatures, General Kyle no longer thought there was anything wrong with them. He even often leaned on the two robots, as if that would lower his own temperature.

The car took them to the location where the electronic devices had malfunctioned, then reversed and soon turned back along the tracks they had come from.

Luo Xian'er, Shining Armor, and two robots continued forward.

The Shining Armor's skin was upgraded when it was injured last time, making it impervious to heat and cold. The Shining Armor material used by the other two robots was also upgraded and has the same effect.

Luo Xian'er was afraid of the heat and sun, but after Xiao Ba put a protective shield on her, she felt refreshed.

I took out my cell phone and electronic compass, and sure enough, there was no signal at all. I also took out my satellite phone, but there was no signal there either.

Interestingly, electronic devices do indeed malfunction here.

"Shining Armor, is your auxiliary system working? Can it find the way?" Luo Xian'er shook her phone; her hand ached, and there was still no signal.

"Xian'er, it's useful, but not much. There's a weak signal. My route tells me to keep going to the left front."

"Alright, let's head to the left and keep going until the signal is lost!"

The four of them strolled along at a leisurely pace, as if they were enjoying the scenery on a spring outing.

Along the way, we saw animal remains and sand scorpions running by, wagging their tails and disappearing into the sand dunes on the other side.

After walking for half a day, all I saw were sandstorms, bones on the ground, and my own footprints; I couldn't see anyone else.

Truly, there are no predecessors before me, nor successors after me; contemplating the vastness of heaven and earth, I am overwhelmed with sorrow and tears stream down my face.

A gust of wind blew, and the footprints that had just been left disappeared.

As they walked, they were stopped by the Radiant Armor: "Xian'er, something's amiss, don't go."

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in his eyes, and a large snake, the same color as the desert, emerged from the ground and headed straight for their feet.

However, this snake was too unlucky. Although its mouth bit into the leg of the Shining Armor, it couldn't bite through at all.

Instead, it was stepped on by his other foot and stuck in the sand, unable to move. Its entire body was swaying, causing sand to fly everywhere, just like its fate, helpless and tragic.

Luo Xian'er thought, these must be Obsidian's companions. She lightly tapped the black snake that was used as decoration on her wrist and whispered, "Obsidian, wake up, it's time to get to work!"

Obsidian wriggled its body, and after stretching out, it leaped onto the sand. Its body slowly grew larger until it was 10 meters long. Two horns grew on its head, and with its golden eyes, it looked majestic and domineering.

"Obsidian, why do you look so different? You're so handsome!" Obsidian seemed to understand her words, lowered its snake head, and rubbed against her. It's true, snakes have a low body temperature, so it's quite comfortable in this desert.
