Helicopters. Ships. Ferries. Trains. Buses. Cars. Motorcycles. Lorries. Planes. Armoured Vans. All-in-one Aircraft-carriers.
These were the 11 main transport modes available to infiltrate the Secret Island, and the Dark Rizzards made sure to take advantage of every possible avenue for deception.
The elite members of the Dark Rizzard Secret Arts Brotherhood of Chosen Disciples, or DRSABCD were, ironically, aiming to provide their 'support services' in the best and only way they knew how - namely by cutting off the circulation, stifling the airways, and all in all, killing off (literally) any resistance from their foes through their own, practised brand of 'compression and defibrillation'...
Currently, they had taken over the Amazoné and Téamu delivery vehicles, and after tossing out about half of the random and semi-useful stuffs that had been bought on impulse due to exceptional advertising, (although they kept the Animu Blu-Rays, tissues and lotion because these were clearly important cultural artefacts of timeless historical significance) were now masquerading as the very same delivery persons.
All they had to do was to deliver the goods to the addresses mentioned on the packages - and once someone came to pick them up, that would be their way in!
It was simple - a foolproof plan!
___
There were in fact 11 Secret Islands in total, an outer ring of 5 surrounding an inner ring of 5 which surrounded the centre-most island, and if one were to connect the dots, it would form a five pointed star.
There were also 11 modes of transportation...
Coincidence?
Yeah. Clearly, It was probably just coincidence...
Convenience?
Yeah. It was absolutely convenient.
Since now, each transportation mode could be focused onto one island, making things easy for everyone to visualise...?
Well yes and no.
Yes, it would make things simple and easy to follow along with. But additionally, it was also convenient, in fact, because each island had its own... 7-Evans "Convenience" store...
___
7-Evans Convenience Stores.
This was part of a high level, genius move from Ice Queen Sally, who had realised the wisdom of 'hiding in plain sight' - in other words, the different parts of the EVP Blueprints were created under the guise of repurposed 7-Evans Convenience Stores that were in fact cutting edge technological development hubs.
A Secret Island that only had one 'base' would be easy to track down.
But considering the ubiquity of 7-Evans Convenience Stores in the world, who in their right minds would want to, or be able to, track and recon every single one?!
At the same time, there was definitely a sense of irony that Convenience Stores had, literally, given birth to EVP Technology, giving a whole new meaning and scope to the 'convenient' service that the Stores could offer...
And so.
It transpired that a whole bunch of these 11 types of transports which were infiltrating the 11 Secret Islands just ended up going to a whole bunch of 7-Evans stores - although they didn't know about this point just yet...
