Chapter 369 Return
Chapter 369 Return (Five in One)
"Thank him? Are you crazy?"
Horton and others looked at Su Ming in astonishment.
"I'm not crazy. What I want to say is that it was difficult for us to escape before. But now it's easy. This guy has sent a signal. I guess the enemy will catch up with us soon. This way we have a chance to return the same way we came."
Su Ming explained to everyone with a smile.
"Ah."
When Su Yuan and the others heard Su Ming's words, their expressions eased a little.
"But before that, I'm curious about who ordered you to do that?"
Su Ming's eyes fell on Pari.
In the face of Su Ming's questioning, Pari remained silent and was unwilling to cooperate.
"Damn it, don't tell me yet."
When Horton saw that Perry didn't say anything, he became even more annoyed and raised his fist, ready to teach him a lesson.
Su Ming stretched out his hand to stop Holden and spoke to Pari calmly.
"I advise you to confess everything. Think about it carefully. When those people attacked you, did they consider whether you lived or died? They were beating you to death."
When Pari heard Su Ming's words, his face turned very ugly.
Seeing this, Su Ming continued speaking.
"Even if they really let you succeed, I think they will kill you to silence you, and you will be abandoned in the end. What's the point?"
At this time, Pari also lowered his head and spoke slowly.
"I'm sorry, I really don't want to be a traitor, they forced me to do it."
"Oh? Tell me."
"My family ran into problems with its capital chain due to poor management. That group of people intervened using all kinds of despicable means, took control of all our family businesses, and had a handle on us. If I didn't do what they said, everything would be over."
"Who is the other party?"
Su Ming asked, narrowing his eyes.
"I don't know. The other party has been hiding his identity. I swear I am not lying. You have to believe me."
Pari was afraid that Su Ming and others would not believe what he said.
Su Ming was a little disappointed when he heard this, and he was unable to obtain more valuable information.
After listening to this, Su Yuan and others frowned and said.
"What to do with this guy?"
"Please forgive me, I really have no choice."
Pari begged for mercy quickly.
"Get lost! What I hate most is traitors! How could I treat you as a brother?"
Horton kicked Perry angrily.
"Alright, everyone, restrain yourself. Lock him up now and assign someone to watch him. If he has other ideas, just kill him. When we return to the Eye of the World, you can do whatever you want with Shadel. I won't ask any questions."
Su Ming made simple arrangements.
This Pari is from the Federation, and Su Ming will not kill him unless it is absolutely necessary.
Even if Shadel and others wanted to kill him, Su Ming didn't want to be implicated.
The federal system is different from that of other forces.
"Okay, someone take away all his stuff and lock him up!"
After listening to Su Ming's words, Shader immediately gave orders to the guards beside him.
Five guards then stepped forward, took off everything from Pari, handcuffed him, and took him away.
"Okay, now let's get down to business."
Su Ming spoke to everyone with a serious expression.
"Ok!"
Shader and others responded.
Sixteen hours later.
A level 5 battleship and two level 2 battleships were sailing over from the distant starry sky.
Three ships flew in front of the gray planet and opened rows of boarding exits.
Swish!
The pseudo V-generation mecha Shadow Fiend flew out first.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of mechas of different models rushed out like a swarm of bees.
The pseudo V-generation mecha Shadow Demon then led a large group of mechas and rushed towards the gray planet.
One mecha after another penetrated into the atmosphere at high speed.
Not long after, the pseudo V-generation mecha Shadow Demon was the first to come down from the dark clouds in the sky, followed closely by many mechas.
For a moment, the entire gloomy sky was filled with black mechas.
At this time, the pseudo V-generation mecha Shadow Demon looked down and saw no trace of any ships on the barren land.
However, the Shadow Demon Mecha still led the group of mechas and flew towards the source of the signal.
Soon they were above the melting ice.
The Shadow Demon mecha waved his hand, and one mecha after another went down to search for the signal device.
Soon a gunner found the pulse signal device, then squatted down, stretched out his hand and picked up the pulse signal device.
It turned out that there was a wire connected to the pulse signal device, and the entire wire was pulled out from the broken ice.
"Oh no, it's a trap!"
The Lancer suddenly shouted in shock.
Everyone was startled and retreated in fear.
However, the imagined explosion did not occur. Instead, a suspended projection device floated up from the snow pile, followed by a holographic projection, projected in front of everyone.
In the holographic projection, Shadel said with a smile on his face.
"Hi, everyone. When you see this video, we have already sailed back home. Thank you for letting us go. The mountains and rivers remain unchanged, and we will meet again some other day. Goodbye!"
When Caemon saw this video, he immediately realized that he had been tricked and roared in anger.
"Quick, notify Jix and the others to stop them!"
"Yes!"
The subordinate next to him quickly replied in horror.
"Everyone return and give chase!"
Kaemon then controlled the mecha and rushed towards the sky at an extremely fast speed.
A few days later.
Inside the central control room of the Level 3 escape ship, Wind Shuttle.
Captain Lum kept staring at the parameters on the operating screen and constantly corrected the flight path.
Su Ming and others stood quietly by and watched Captain Lum take command.
At this time, the ship came out of the space wormhole, the vision suddenly became clear, and countless floating meteorites came into view.
"Great, we're back to the ambush sea of stars."
The Lum ship breathed a long sigh of relief.
Although he was confident that he could return by the same route, the actual operation was extremely difficult, especially the escape part.
"Great."
Shader and others all showed happy expressions.
At this time Su Ming spoke.
"Captain Lum, stop returning."
"Huh? Why?"
Captain Lum and others looked at Su Ming in surprise.
Su Ming looked at the surprised crowd and replied calmly.
"You are not so naive as to think that we can return so smoothly, are you? The enemy may not only have one group. They may have sent people to wait for us on our way back."
When Holden and the others heard Su Ming's words, their joy suddenly disappeared and they asked nervously.
"Then what should we do?"
"To be on the safe side, we need to play a psychological game with the other party!"
"What's the game?"
"Let's find a place to hide. If those people can't find us and can't wait for us to return, they will think they let us escape. Then we can return. This starry sky is full of meteorites, which is very suitable for hiding. Besides, this is where we were ambushed. They will never think that we are so brave to hide here."
Su Ming explained to everyone.
"Good idea, let's do as you say."
Shadel said happily.
"Master Su Ming, you are really amazing!"
Captain Lum said to Su Ming admiringly.
"Damn it, I have never convinced many people in my life, and you are one of them!"
Horton also replied very convincedly.
"Thank you for your praise, it's just a little cleverness! Let's not talk about that for now, Captain Lum, drive the ship deeper and find a hidden hiding place."
Su Ming turned his head and looked at Captain Lum and said.
"Okay, leave it to me!"
Captain Lum responded immediately.
A few hours later, the Wind Shuttle was flying in the asteroid belt.
At this time, an asteroid with a diameter of thousands of kilometers, made of gray rocks and covered with countless giant holes, like a honeycomb, came into everyone's eyes.
Captain Lum looked at the asteroid and spoke immediately.
"Master Su Ming, how about we hide inside this asteroid?"
"Okay, but be careful, there might be monsters in there."
Su Ming instructed Captain Lum.
"I see."
Captain Lum responded in a deep voice, and then began to control the Wind Shuttle to move closer little by little.
He chose a giant cave with a diameter of 20 kilometers and flew directly into it.
When the Wind Shuttle entered the cave, it came to a deep rock passage.
The rock walls of this passage are uneven and crooked.
Captain Lum continued to maneuver the ship and turn along the channel.
After they sailed about twenty kilometers inward, they landed the Wind Shuttle at the bottom, maintaining its camouflage.
Captain Lum then reported to Su Ming and others.
"Sir, let's stop here. If we go any deeper, we might run into danger."
"Okay, we'll just hide here, and then we just have to wait patiently."
Su Ming nodded slightly and said.
"it is good!"
Su Yuan and others responded immediately.
Twenty-five days later.
Inside the central control room of the Wind Shuttle.
Su Yuan and the others sat on the chairs very bored. During the time they were hiding, they did not dare to completely relax their vigilance, for fear that some monster would suddenly appear or they would be discovered by the enemy.
Therefore, except for taking turns to rest, everyone basically stays in the central control room so that they can respond to emergencies in the first time.
At this time, Su Ming raised his bracelet to check the time. He did some calculations and thought that if he set sail back now, he should be able to catch up with his studies.
Su Ming then stood up from his chair and spoke to everyone.
"It's almost time, let's prepare to return."
"Really, we can go home now?"
Shadel was as excited as a child. He was worried every day during this period and had several nightmares.
"Ah."
Su Ming replied calmly.
"I'm finally going back."
The patience of Horton and others has almost reached its limit.
Captain Lum then said respectfully.
"My Lords, shall I start the ship and begin to turn around and return home?"
"let's start."
Su Ming and others nodded in response.
After receiving a positive answer, Lum ordered his subordinates to start the operation.
"Start power engine number 2!"
"Yes!"
"The bow of the ship has deviated to the left by +5 degrees."
Su Ming and others walked to the observation deck, stretched, and looked at the dark starry sky outside.
"Finally, I can leave this damn place and see the light of day again."
Su Yuan said excitedly.
"That's right, I'm dying of suffocation."
Holden echoed.
At this moment, a blue light flashed past them at an extremely fast speed.
"Hmm? Am I dazzled? Did something blue flash by just now?"
Su Yuan asked in confusion.
"I think I saw it too."
Shadel also replied with a confused look on his face.
Su Ming also looked puzzled.
At this time, an operator looked at the prompt that popped up on the operation screen and reported in surprise.
"Report: Protoss spotted."
When Shader and the others heard this, they were all shocked and had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"Fuck, Star Spirit!"
Holden shouted in shock.
“There really are star spirits!”
Su Ming also had an expression of disbelief on his face.
"I just said that the information my father-in-law gave me is okay."
Shadel said excitedly.
At this moment, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded from the Wind Shuttle, a huge red dot appeared on the scanning device, and then a red prompt box popped up.
"Warning: Unknown IV Lord-level mutant creature detected."
"Hint: Automatically named Sand Tsui Beast."
Su Ming and others were suddenly shocked.
The next second, a thousand-meter-long monster with an ugly head like a chrysanthemum, a round mouth with protruding hair tentacles and sharp teeth inside, a body covered with red spots, gray wings, sharp claws, and a metallic axe-like tail extending from the tail flew over the Wind Shuttle and chased after the Star Spirit frantically.
"Quick, go catch the Star Spirit, don't let that monster eat it."
Su Ming reacted immediately and shouted to everyone.
"Fuck, go!"
Horton and others reacted and rushed to the mobile platform.
Upon seeing this, Captain Lum quickly picked up the communicator and gave orders to his subordinates in the hangar.
"Shafu, Lord Shadel and his men are on their way to the hangar, prepare the blood extractor immediately."
"clear."
There was an immediate response from the communicator.
Soon the mobile platform arrived at the hangar, and the metal door opened for a moment.
Su Ming and others rushed out and ran desperately towards their mechas.
At this time, five soldiers were already holding metal boxes and standing under their mechas waiting.
After Su Ming rushed to the Killing Blade, he took the metal box from the soldier's hand, then activated the anti-gravity device and floated up.
Soon he entered the cab, activated the Killing Blade and rushed towards the exit.
At this time, Su Yuan, Horton and others also started their mechas and followed.
Swish!Swish!
Su Ming and others controlled the mechas and rushed out of the ship.
"there!"
Su Ming led everyone to fly into the passage.
"Everyone, you must catch the Star Spirit, please!"
Shader said to Su Ming and others very nervously.
"Don't worry, now that we've seen it, there's no way we'll let it run away. But I never thought there really is a star spirit here."
Holden said enthusiastically.
"Shader, does your old father-in-law have other daughters?"
Su Yuan asked with a smile.
His father-in-law is really awesome, he has this kind of information.
"Uh, this is no longer available. My wife is the youngest."
Shadel scratched his head and replied.
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up to catch up. That star spirit is a juvenile and may not be able to outrun that monster."
Su Ming reminded everyone.
After Su Yuan and the others heard this, their expressions became serious and they all sped up their progress.
They chased all the way inside.
It didn't take long before they saw the figures of Star Spirits and Sand Beasts.
At this time, the sand beast was chasing the star spirit like crazy, constantly closing the distance. The star spirit was also very panicked, and it made a special cry from time to time.
Fortunately, at this time, a series of forks appeared ahead.
The star spirit turned left swiftly and entered another passage.
The sand dragon flapped its wings violently to slow down, then turned inside.
"Chase!"
Su Ming's expression became more and more solemn as he controlled the Killing Blade to chase after him.
However, as the Protoss went deeper, the rock passage became narrower and narrower, and there were more and more forks.
The entire interior of the planet is interconnected like a honeycomb.
Facing the complex terrain, Su Ming concentrated his mind highly, quickly calculated the flight route, controlled the mecha to make deflections in advance, and smoothly followed the Star Spirit and the Sandzui Beast.
However, when Horton and others turned the corner, they all controlled the mecha to slow down. As a result, the distance between them and Su Ming was getting bigger and bigger. They couldn't help but speak anxiously in the communication channel.
"This won't work. The distance will only get bigger and bigger."
"It's okay, I'll just follow you, and you guys can catch up later!"
Su Ming said calmly, and increased his power output to catch up.
In the narrow rock passage, the Star Spirit, the Sand Beast and Su Ming started a life-and-death chase.
However, the situation became increasingly worse. The sand beast accelerated like crazy, and didn't care even if it hit the rock wall when turning. It just smashed the rock wall and chased after it, narrowing the distance bit by bit.
1000 meters, 500 meters.
The sand beast kept opening its bloody mouth and biting at the star spirit like a mad dog, as if it wanted to swallow it alive.
At this time, Xiao Hui crawled out of the pocket, and when it saw this scene, it couldn't help but squeak.
Su Ming frowned and decisively controlled the Killing Blade to turn the Lightning Cannon to accumulate energy at full power.
His eyes were fixed on the open mouth of the sand beast, and suddenly a dazzling blue beam of light shot out.
boom!
The lightning cannon hit the sand beast's mouth and caused a huge explosion. A large piece of the sand beast's mouth was blown off, revealing large pieces of sticky cell tissue.
The sand-mouthed beast suddenly felt a sharp pain, then stopped and turned to look at Su Ming ferociously.
Su Ming was not polite and shot a beam of light at it again.
But this time, the Sandsuck Beast directly broke through the AT stance barrier.
The light beam exploded on the AT field barrier, causing it to vibrate only slightly.
The next second, the sand beast rushed towards Su Ming with bloodshot eyes, and its sharp claws tore at Su Ming.
Su Ming decisively controlled the Killing Blade to dodge the attack at high speed, and swung the plasma lightsaber backhand to slash at the AT position barrier.
click!
Beam particles splashed everywhere, and the entire AT field barrier was violently distorted.
The sand beast immediately turned around and swung its sharp tail towards Su Ming.
Su Ming's eyes flashed, and he raised his left hand to block with the plasma lightsaber!
click!
In an instant, Su Ming felt as if he had been hit hard, and the entire mecha flew backwards and hit the rock wall heavily.
He immediately showed a look of great surprise. How could this monster be so powerful?
At this time, the sand beast flapped its wings and attacked Su Ming ferociously.
At this moment, four full-power beams of light pierced through the dark cave and bombarded the AT position barrier of the Sandsquirrel.
Rumble!
The huge explosion directly destroyed the AT field barrier, and the body of the Sand Zui Beast suddenly stagnated.
Su Ming turned his head and saw Su Yuan and his four companions rushing over.
"Su Ming, are you okay?"
Su Yuan asked in the communication channel.
"It's okay, let's deal with this guy together."
Su Ming controlled the Killing Blade to full power and rushed towards the Sandsui Beast at an extremely fast speed.
The sand beast opened its bloody mouth in anger, accumulating a terrifying beam of light that swept across.
Su Ming's eyes flashed and he disappeared at the speed of light in an instant.
Su Yuan and others were also startled and controlled their mechas to dodge.
Rumble!
The beam of light hit the surrounding rock walls, causing a huge explosion. Countless pieces of rubble flew everywhere, and the entire asteroid was shaking violently, as if it was about to collapse.
At this time, Su Ming appeared on the back of the Shazui beast, raised his hands, and the plasma lightsaber pierced through the shell and into the body, then slashed forward!
A large area of flesh and blood was immediately cut open, and sticky green liquid gushed out.
The sand-mouthed beast suddenly let out a cry of pain and twisted its body wildly to try to throw Su Ming away. At the same time, it controlled its tail to curl up and prepare to sweep towards Su Ming.
"Take a hit from me!"
At this time, Byrne controlled the mecha and appeared in front of the Sand Beast. He swung the giant mechanical hammer in his hand and smashed it hard on the Sand Beast's head.
bang~
The head of the Sand Tsui Beast tilted suddenly, and it was stunned. At this time, Su Yuan and Shadel appeared on both sides of the Sand Tsui Beast at the same time, swinging their weapons to chop at its wings, leaving huge wounds.
The sand beast instantly became furious, flapped its injured wings, turned around forcefully, and swept its claws towards Su Yuan.
Su Yuan decisively controlled the mecha to retreat.
At this moment, Su Ming's eyes flashed, and he controlled the Killing Blade to full power. He jumped up, swung two plasma lightsabers, and stabbed them fiercely into his head.
Click!
The sticky liquid splashed out.
oooo~
The sand beast went completely crazy. It flapped its wings and rushed towards the rock wall with Su Ming.
Su Ming showed no fear and decisively activated the energy barrier.
Bang!
The sand beast, with its killing blade, kept crashing into the rock wall.
Large areas of rock walls collapsed.
Su Ming gritted his teeth and held on, constantly stirring the plasma lightsaber in his hand.
The sand beast attacked more and more frantically, but fortunately it soon slowed down, its huge body began to twitch, and eventually it lost its life.
Su Ming drew out his plasma lightsaber and let out a long breath.
"Fuck, he really doesn't know how to live or die. He dares to fight with us."
Horton controlled the mecha to fly over and cursed the dead sand beast with disdain.
Although this monster was stronger than the previous Chirami, it did not have the same tenacious vitality and self-healing ability as Chirami. Moreover, it was no match for Su Ming and so many advanced fourth-generation mechas at the same time.
"Don't worry about it. I don't know where the Star Spirits have gone."
Su Ming said to everyone helplessly.
"Fuck, isn't it?"
Horton and the others turned their heads and looked around, but could not see any trace of the Star Spirit at all.
"What should we do now?"
Shader was also a little anxious.
"What else can we do? Spread out and search."
Su Ming said to everyone helplessly.
"it is good!"
Su Yuan and others responded quickly. They didn't want to let the duck that was about to be caught fly away.
"Be careful when searching, and evacuate immediately if you encounter danger. If you really can't find it, return here and reunite."
Su Ming instructed everyone.
"understand!"
Su Yuan and others replied with serious expressions.
"Disperse!"
Su Ming controlled the Killing Blade and flew towards a hole in the front left.
Su Yuan and others searched towards other cave entrances ahead.
In the narrow passage, Su Ming controlled the mecha to go deeper.
Soon, one fork in the road after another appeared, and he didn't know where to fly, so he could only choose a direction at random.
At this moment, Xiao Hui suddenly flapped his wings and flew to the opening of the cab, scratching the cockpit wall with his little claws.
Su Ming also said to Xiao Hui helplessly.
"Xiao Hui, stop making trouble and come back soon!"
At this time, Xiao Hui behaved out of character and did not listen to Su Ming. He kept scratching the cockpit wall with his claws, as if he wanted to get out.
Su Ming was slightly startled, then reached out and grabbed Xiao Hui back.
"Stop it, it's dangerous outside."
When Xiao Hui heard Su Ming's words, he immediately raised his little paw, pointed to the right and squeaked continuously.
Su Ming looked at Xiao Hui's unusual behavior and asked thoughtfully.
"You want me to go that way?"
Little Gray kept nodding and squeaking happily.
Su Ming decisively controlled the mecha and flew to the right.
Xiao Hui kept pointing in random directions, and Su Ming flew in according to its instructions.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Hui led Su Ming to a rock wall.
“It’s a dead end.”
Su Ming said with a frown.
"Squeak!"
Little Gray continued to squeak at the rock wall, looking very excited.
Seeing this, Su Ming raised the plasma lightsaber in his hand and slashed it on the rock wall.
Click!
Suddenly the rock wall was cut open, revealing a gap, which was hollow inside.
Su Ming's eyes suddenly lit up, and he controlled the Killing Blade to fly in and came to a huge rock cave.
Only the young star spirit was seen floating inside, looking at Su Ming with fear.
Su Ming looked at Xing Ling with a bright smile and spoke.
"Hey, I saved your life, so it's not too much to take a little bit of your blood."
As Su Ming spoke, he controlled the Killing Blade and moved closer to the Star Spirit little by little. However, the Star Spirit became more frightened when it saw Su Ming approaching it. Its body kept shaking and it made a special chirping sound.
Seeing its big reaction, Su Ming stopped immediately to avoid irritating it.
At this time, Xiao Hui flew to the opening of the cockpit again, stretched out his claws to scratch the cockpit wall again, and squeaked continuously.
"Are you going out?"
Su Ming asked after a moment of hesitation.
Xiao Hui kept nodding to Su Ming.
Su Ming hesitated for a few seconds, but finally put on the exoskeleton armor and opened the cockpit.
Xiao Hui flew out immediately.
At this moment, blue lines suddenly appeared on its body, and the originally gray body emitted a blue light, becoming extremely beautiful.
When Xing Ling saw Xiao Hui, his body stopped trembling and he took the initiative to walk towards Xiao Hui.
The two of them tangled together and started playing and fighting.
Su Ming was also very surprised when he saw this scene. He didn't expect Xiao Hui to have this form and be so compatible with the Star Spirit.
He patiently watched Xiao Hui and Star Spirit play for a while, then controlled the mecha and waved at Xiao Hui, signaling it to come back.
Seeing this, Xiao Hui flapped his wings and flew towards Su Ming.
Su Ming opened the cab and let Xiao Hui in, then asked Xiao Hui.
"Xiao Hui, you can communicate with it, right?"
"Squeak!"
Xiao Hui nodded in response.
"Then tell it that I saved it. Can you let me draw some blood?"
Su Ming said to Xiao Hui.
After listening to it, Xiao Hui flew out immediately and squeaked at the Star Spirit, making a special sound.
The star spirit seemed to understand what Xiao Hui said, and took the initiative to fly towards Su Ming, stretching out its small upper limbs.
Upon seeing this, Su Ming quickly opened the metal box, took out two blood extractors, and flew out of the cab.
He slowly approached the Star Spirit. The young Star Spirit in front of him was about three meters long. Its entire body was transparent, and it emitted blue starlight from inside its body. It looked like a whale and a Kun, and was very beautiful.
Su Ming reached out and touched Xing Ling's upper limb, muttering to himself.
"Don't be afraid, just be patient, it will be fine soon."
The star spirit seemed to be able to hear Su Ming's words and blinked at him.
Su Ming then picked up the blood extractor, gently pricked it on the star spirit's upper limb, and then drew out very beautiful blue blood, which was sparkling as if it contained starlight.
Soon Su Ming collected the blood, and he reached out and touched Xing Ling's head.
The star spirit was also very well-behaved and let Su Ming stroke its head.
Su Ming smiled and then made a gesture to Xiao Hui, indicating it to tell the Star Spirit to leave here quickly as this area was not safe.
Xiao Hui then circled around the Star Spirit, making a special sound.
The star spirit seemed to be very reluctant to part with Little Gray and made reluctant sounds towards it.
Little Gray also flew up and butted its body with his little head.
The star spirit finally turned around and flew away reluctantly.
Su Ming watched the Star Spirit disappear from his sight, then floated towards the cab, and Xiao Hui quickly followed.
Su Ming controlled the mecha to close the cab and left the cave.
After a long time, Su Ming controlled the mecha to the meeting point, only to see Su Yuan and others waiting there.
When they saw Su Ming coming back, they immediately asked nervously.
"Su Ming, how is it?"
"Have you found the Star Spirit?"
"We found it, and we got the blood."
Su Ming said to everyone.
"Great!"
Shader and others shouted excitedly.
"Let's go back to the Wind Shuttle!"
Su Ming said to Su Yuan and others.
"it is good!"
Su Yuan and others immediately followed Su Ming back to the ship.
Half an hour later, inside the hangar of the Wind Shuttle.
Su Ming and others controlled the mecha and flew in from the boarding entrance. They moved the mecha to the position and fixed it, then opened the cockpit and jumped down one by one.
"Su Ming, where's the blood?"
Shader and others came over and asked excitedly.
Su Ming took out a tube of Protoss blood and handed it to Shadel.
"Give!"
"Haha, it really is the blood of the Star Spirits. I succeeded! I succeeded!"
Shadel was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Well done, this trip was not in vain."
Holden praised Su Ming.
But at this time, Byrne asked Su Ming in confusion.
"Su Ming, did you just take one?"
Su Yuan and others were also startled when they heard this, and they all looked at Su Ming.
"Yes! Su Ming, did you just take one?"
"Well, this kind of thing is hard to come by, just smoke one, don't be too greedy."
Su Ming replied calmly.
When everyone heard Su Ming's words, they showed expressions of regret on their faces.
"Okay, we've wasted enough time here, let's go back to the central control room."
Su Ming said to everyone.
"it is good!"
Shader and others responded quickly.
Su Ming and others then walked towards the mobile platform.
Not long after, Su Ming and others returned to the central control room.
Captain Lum then stepped forward and asked respectfully.
"My Lords, can we return now?"
"We can return now, but when we return, we can't enter through the small entrance on the side of the defense line."
Su Ming said to Lum.
"Then where do we get in?"
Lum looked at Su Ming puzzledly and asked.
"Return from the main entrance on the front of the defense line."
Su Ming said in a decisive tone.
"No, can we get in through the front entrance?"
Shader and others were also startled and asked with some concern.
"It's okay as long as Su Yuan and I are here."
Su Ming replied calmly
"Su Ming, do we have to go through the main entrance?"
Su Yuan said in panic when he heard this.
"Any questions?"
Su Ming looked at Su Yuan and asked.
"No, we sneaked out. The Federation has regulations that no one can enter the three restricted areas unless they have a mission! If we return from the front entrance, we will be caught and punished. That would be the end of us. Can't we go through the side entrance?"
Su Yuan replied with a bitter face.
"No, it's safer to go through the front door. It's better to be punished than to be killed, right?"
Su Ming replied seriously.
"Ok."
Su Yuan replied helplessly.
"Okay, let's get going without further delay."
Su Ming said to Captain Lum.
"it is good!"
Captain Lum responded immediately.
Not long after, the Level 3 escape ship, Wind Shuttle, slowly flew out from the entrance of the planetary channel, then accelerated towards the distant starry sky, and finally disappeared.
-
A few days later.
In the vast starry sky, the Level 3 escape ship Wind Shuttle flew out of the space wormhole, and strips of rubble came into view.
In the central control room.
Captain Lum reported to Su Ming and others.
"We have arrived at the federal mining area. From here on, I know the way. I don't need to take the original road anymore. I can take another wormhole."
"Well, don't take it lightly. The closer you are to your destination, the more likely it is that something will go wrong."
Su Ming instructed Captain Lum.
"Understood. I will start adjusting the course now."
Captain Lum replied carefully.
"Ah."
Su Ming nodded in response.
However, not long after the Wind Shuttle sailed away, the scanning device suddenly issued an early warning, and gray dots popped up on the screen.
"Prompt: Scanned Federation Level 5 mothership, the Dreadnaught."
"Prompt: The Federation Tier 5 battleship Frost has been scanned."
Captain Lum reported solemnly.
"We ran into a Federation fleet."
Shadel scratched his head and said.
"It should be okay if we encounter a Federation fleet, right?"
"Oh, you scared me. I thought I met an enemy."
Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He had been too nervous recently and was a little neurotic.
At this time Su Ming said with a serious expression.
"Don't be happy too soon. It may not be a good thing to run into a Federation fleet here. They may be here to hunt us down."
"Isn't it?"
Shader and others were also stunned.
"Su Ming, you are not kidding."
Su Yuan's heart suddenly tightened and he quickly asked Su Ming.
"Don't forget, since the enemy can ambush us here, it's not surprising that they bribed the Federation."
Su Ming reminded very rationally.
"Now what?"
Shadel looked at Su Ming nervously.
"Avoid them."
Su Ming said without any hesitation.
"Captain Lume, get away from them!"
Shadel immediately gave orders to Captain Lum.
"Yes!"
Captain Lum immediately took action and controlled the Wind Shuttle to change its course to avoid the situation.
Unfortunately, the Wind Shuttle has been scanned by the Level 5 mothership, the Dreadnought.
At the moment when the Wind Shuttle changed its course, a prompt box suddenly popped up on the operating screen.
"Alert: Communication request from the Level 5 mothership, the Dreadnaught."
Captain Lum's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he immediately said to Su Ming.
"Sir, we have been exposed. The other party has sent a communication request. Should we accept it?"
Shader and others looked at Su Ming.
"accept!"
Su Ming said with a changing expression.
Captain Lum immediately picked up the call, and suddenly a man in a colonel's uniform, with rough skin, dark circles under his eyes, and quite old, appeared on the screen.
"I am Colonel Top of the First Federal Army. I now order you to stop sailing and accept identity verification and inspection."
Seeing this, Su Ming and Su Yuan stepped forward at the same time and replied.
"I am Brigadier General Su Ming of the Federation!"
"I am Brigadier General Su Yuan of the Federation!"
When Colonel Top heard what Su Ming and Su Yuan said, he was also stunned. He didn't expect that there were two brigadiers on this level 3 ship. He saluted and said.
"Sir."
Su Ming and Su Yuan also returned the salute.
At this time, Colonel Top spoke seriously to Su Ming and the others.
"Sir, I am on a mission and need to verify you. Please show me your permit for wormhole spacetime travel."
When Su Ming and Su Yuan heard what Colonel Top said, they immediately showed embarrassment on their faces. They didn't have a license.
"No, can you please make some concessions?"
Su Ming tried to communicate with Colonel Top.
"I'm sorry, sir. Since you have entered the wormhole space-time without permission, you must undergo inspection and then return to the wormhole space-time defense line with us."
Colonel Top said with a headache after hearing this.
"Why are you so strict? It's never like this before."
Su Yuan asked in confusion.
"Sir, this is an extraordinary period. We are conducting a search and rescue mission. All regulations need to be strictly enforced."
Colonel Top explained directly to Su Ming and Su Yuan.
"Search and rescue mission? Who?"
Su Ming asked doubtfully.
"We are searching for Shadel, a member of the royal family of the Shabasque Kingdom."
Colonel Top explained to Su Ming and the others.
"what?"
Shader was also stunned. They were actually here to search and rescue him.
Su Ming's brows suddenly frowned slightly, and he stretched out his hand to signal Shadel not to speak. He obviously felt that something was wrong.
No one should know that they were attacked, but Colonel Top came to search and rescue them, which was obviously not logical.
Su Ming was a little suspicious that this group of people were trying to lure them and capture them after they got on board.
Su Yuan then looked at Su Ming, asking him with his eyes what to do.
Su Ming then spoke to Colonel Top in a deep voice.
"What happened?"
"Sir, the seventh prince of the Shabask Kingdom, Lord Omid, has applied to the Federation for search and rescue assistance, and we are acting on orders. This is the request letter from Lord Omid of the Shabask Kingdom and the mission letter issued by the Federation Space Force Headquarters."
Colonel Top then shared the two people's files with Su Ming and the others.
Shader looked at the signature on the request letter and nodded to Su Ming, telling him that the document was authentic.
Su Ming's expression changed for a while, and then he spoke.
"Shadel is right beside us."
Colonel Top was also very surprised when he heard this, and then said to Su Ming.
"Sir, please drive your ships into the mother ship, the Dreadnaught. We will escort you back home."
"it is good!"
Su Ming didn't waste any words and agreed directly.
