She Rebuilt Her Fallen Country With Storage Space-Chapter 178: Invisible Drones, No One Has Secrets
Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Invisible Drones, No One Has Secrets
Xiang Ying never expected that she would encounter difficulties before even leaving the house.
Governor Lu, to guard against her, unexpectedly placed guards to keep watch over the yard.
Both the front and back yards were closely guarded around the walls.
This entirely sealed off Xiang Ying’s residence.
Since being exiled, she had never encountered such stringent surveillance.
"The governor said she knows martial arts; we must be cautious."
"Don’t worry, we have more than twenty people here; not even a fly could get in."
Xiang Ying stood inside the door, listening to several guards quietly discussing in the yard, and couldn’t help but fall silent.
Even if her skills were outstanding, it was impossible to leave unnoticed in front of so many people.
Unless... she used the Invisibility Function.
However, the Invisibility Function could only be used once a month, and Xiang Ying wanted to save it for a critical moment.
She returned to her bed, lay down again, closed her eyes to enter the space, and opened the trading platform to search for usable skills.
She actually found one.
Invisible drone!
Not only could it silently gather information, but it also had a flying range within three hundred miles, and it could transport up to three hundred kilograms of goods.
Xiang Ying’s eyes lit up.
Oh ho! This is good.
But when she saw the price, she nearly fainted.
Such a drone would cost her five tons of food.
It was like emptying out the entire first floor.
Xiang Ying really didn’t want to part with it, but with this drone, she could do a lot.
She thought about it and gritted her teeth: "Isn’t it just food? The wool comes from the sheep, can’t I give it away?"
After all, if she gave hers out, then Governor Lu and the Sixth Prince’s supplies would have to fill in.
Xiang Ying confirmed the trade, and almost instantly, all the sacks of rice and flour stored on the first floor disappeared.
Fortunately, she planted quite a bit of wheat in the planting layer, and there were other foods; although it hurt, there was no alternative.
Xiang Ying gritted her teeth.
She must make up for this tonight!
After obtaining the drone, which featured advanced functions and came with a large screen synced for her to view.
She sat in space to operate it, not worried about being disturbed.
She saw Xiang Ying walk to the window and quietly open a crack, and the drone immediately flew out.
However, just her simple action of opening the window attracted the stern gaze of the guards outside in the yard.
Xiang Ying casually closed the window as if nothing had happened.
She lay down again and entered the space to operate.
According to the manual, the drone had a very good feature; within its load capacity, it could instantaneously transmit all retrieved items back to the space.
Similarly, as long as Xiang Ying placed the items she wanted to send on the scale, the drone could also instantly transport them wherever she wanted.
Xiang Ying, who had initially felt at a loss, finally felt a bit consoled.
She first packed a bundle in the space, containing water bags and dried meat, as well as the leftover dry cakes from before, and sent it to Xiang Li’s yard.
Compared to Xiang Ying, Xiang Li also had guards watching, but these people all stood outside the yard.
Her invisible drone easily entered the yard, and through the half-open window, Xiang Ying saw Xiang Li standing at the table, practicing calligraphy with his back towards her.
Oh!
Brother can really keep his composure; he can still practice calligraphy at such a time.
Xiang Ying controlled the drone, unnoticed by anyone, and placed the bundle on the table.
Before leaving, she intentionally fiddled with the crystal bead curtain on the bed canopy to make a noise.
Xiang Li indeed turned around, looking over in confusion.
Through controlling the perspective, the drone hovered above Xiang Li’s head, but Xiang Li was unaware.
Xiang Ying only saw him walk to the table, and he seemed surprised upon discovering the bundle.
Xiang Li moved to the window and looked around outside; he must have guessed that someone had delivered it.
His voice came through the monitor: "It must be the Vice General who gave this, how thoughtful of him to still take care of me, all thanks to Ayin..."
Xiang Ying listened and chuckled.
The fool brother still doesn’t know it was her who gave it.
After handing off the item to Xiang Li with peace of mind, Xiang Ying did the same and sent one to the Seventh Princess’s room.
Unexpectedly, when the drone entered Xiang Rongrong’s room, she found her soundly asleep.
Really... never worried about her own situation.
Xiang Ying placed the bundle at the corner of the bed and let the drone fly away.
Next, the drone ascended continuously until the entire Governor Lu’s Mansion was brought into view.
Xiang Ying grabbed pen and paper, drawing a map while using the drone’s infrared scanning feature, synchronously printing a 4D stereoscopic map.
This made things much easier; Xiang Ying could study the routes in advance, knowing how to navigate the next time she went to stock up.
Xiang Ying operated the drone, circling each courtyard.
Her intention was to find Jie Chen, as she heard he was also provided a room by the governor.
However, Jie Chen was nowhere to be seen, but she saw Governor Lu coaxing a girl as beautiful as a flower.
The young girl looked as though she was of marriageable age, her beauty radiant.
Unfortunately, her originally eggshell-like face was marred by many red pimples and acne.
A sudden glance could indeed be quite frightening.
At the moment, the girl frowned, deeply troubling Governor Lu.
"Chuchu, you mustn’t get so upset that you refuse to eat. Come on, eat a little, your father had the kitchen make your favorite lotus leaf chicken."
It turns out this young girl is Governor Lu’s only daughter—Lu Pancu.
During the day, Tao Xue mentioned that Governor Lu was extremely obedient and doting towards his daughter, pampering her as if she were his son.
"Eat, eat, eat, what mood do I have to eat?" Lu Pancu erupted, smashing the bowls and dishes on the table. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Governor Lu repeatedly exclaimed in distress: "Don’t hurt yourself, Chuchu, don’t hurry, father has already sent someone to look for a renowned doctor, the marks on your face will definitely be cured."
Lu Pancu cried out in anger, stomping and said: "The Sixth Prince is staying in our mansion for half a month; if he sees my face like this, he will definitely be scared away."
"So many doctors have seen it and it was useless, father, I don’t want to live anymore!"
Governor Lu was startled, affectionately calling her his sweetheart, and quickly soothed her.
"Don’t talk nonsense, it can definitely be cured, there are so many renowned doctors in the world, don’t be anxious."
"I don’t care, if my face doesn’t get better this time, I will... I will die!"
She pretended to hit her head against the wall, frightening Governor Lu considerably.
Beside her, the maid persuaded and Lu Pancu stopped causing a fuss; Governor Lu repeated: "Okay, okay! Father will think of a way, Chuchu, you rest first."
Watching Governor Lu flusteredly leave the room and instruct his servants to continue searching for effective medicine and doctors, Xiang Ying couldn’t help but click her tongue in disapproval.
She lamented: "Both being fathers, why is my dog father so terrible?"
Xiang Ying had a robot deliver a pack of homemade cumin chips, munching noisily while steering the drone close to Lu Pancu’s face.
Her cheeks and chin were pitted and uneven, with at least dozens of pimples and acne combined.
Xiang Ying felt somewhat disgusted.
Lu Pancu was probably in puberty, and her hormonal growth levels weren’t balanced, hence her condition.
In the apocalypse, this was already quite normal, and coincidentally, she happened to have an ointment in her space that could treat it.
However, she needed to wait for the time when Governor Lu needed it the most to offer it, only then would it be useful.
Xiang Ying continued with her business, maneuvering the drone and infiltrating the basement of the Governor’s Mansion.
She saw tanks filled with water.
None of these interested Xiang Ying; she went further down to the basement, finally finding storerooms full of rice and grain!
She rolled up her sleeves and pressed a button on the drone: "Move! Move it all!"
