exclusive possession

Chapter 25

The plane sailed smoothly without a trace of turbulence.I leaned against the bulkhead in a daze.

In the driving seat ahead, the backs of A Daopu and another second lieutenant were straight.

The plane piloted by Mu Xian was directly ahead.The dark gray fighter plane is calm and quiet, keeping a fixed distance and navigating for us.

Just now Adopp successfully dealt with the searching mercenaries, we escaped from the space station and have sailed safely for about an hour.However, it is said that scattered enemy aircraft may also be encountered.

The sound of them talking to Mu Xian continued to come from the helmet.

"Commander, the jump coordinates have been set."

"it is good."

"Commander, adjust the right course by 15 degrees."

"Perform adjustments."

"The signal of the enemy plane is found ahead, repeat, the signal of the enemy plane is found ahead, everyone is concealed, concealed!" Adopu's calm voice suddenly sounded, and my heart skipped a beat—I encountered an enemy plane again, and I just wanted to look up and look outside the cabin Suddenly, the fuselage turned over suddenly, I only felt the world spinning, and my back was thrown violently towards the bulkhead.I snorted, and the plane slanted down like a goshawk.

It took a while before the plane stabilized. I breathed a sigh of relief and broke out in a cold sweat.The pilots also chatted on the comm channel.

"Let's go, it's really dangerous."

"Shouldn't meet again. I'll be in a safe area in a few minutes, and I can't wait to jump away."

They quickly quieted down, and I was still a little shaken.

"Hua Yao." At this moment, a soft voice rang in his ear.

I was startled, it was Mu Xian.

"Yes." I replied.

He seemed to pause for a moment before he said, "Are you afraid just now?"

My heart softened slightly, the bumps just happened suddenly, he actually thought of me.

I think he's talking to me through an encrypted channel, so it's just our voices now.

"It's okay." I paused, "Don't worry."

"Hmm." There seemed to be a slight smile in his voice, "On the left side of your body, there is a metal post on the side of the locker."

I was sitting on the seat facing the door in the back cabin, and when I twisted it, there was really a dark pillar.

"What do I need to do?" I thought what was his arrangement.

"You can hug."

I was startled, only felt my cheeks were slightly warm, and replied: "...OK."

"Take it as me." His words were almost inaudible, as if in my ear, his lips moved slightly and murmured.

My face became even hotter. Looking at the front cabin, Adopu and the others were still sitting upright and didn't look over.I felt a little sneaky, reached out and hugged the pillar, and replied in a low voice: "...I hugged it."

"Yeah." He didn't speak again, and the helmet became quiet.I think he must have turned off the secret communication channel.

Just at this moment, someone let out a "poof" laugh, the kind of laughter that could not be suppressed even though it was desperately trying to hold back.

I was dumbfounded.

Immediately afterwards, several people laughed, all in low voices.But to my ears, it was whistling like an alarm.I don't think so, they must have been talking on the comm channel and just happened to be talking about something funny.

"Mu Xian." I shouted.

The sound of laughter and breathing stopped abruptly.After a few seconds, his soft and calm voice sounded: "Yes." The pause between this made me believe that he must have heard me call him, and switched to the encrypted channel again.

I asked cautiously: "We were talking on an encrypted channel just now, right?"

Mu Xian didn't make a sound, but I sadly heard someone else's faint laughter, and then Mu Xianyun's calm voice sounded: "No. There are only public channels in your helmet."

Suddenly, the men burst into laughter, as if they no longer had the patience and scruples they had before.I was so ashamed that I wanted to dig a hole and get in. He was really like no one else!
After a while, the laughter stopped, and someone said with a smile: "Please forgive me, Commander, we are just very touched. God will bless you with a happy life!"

Mu Xian gave a low "um" with a hint of a smile.I hugged the pillar depressedly, my face was on fire.

At this time, I heard Adopu's voice: "Commander, I used to suffer from airsickness quite a lot. Can I explain some simple and easy ways to improve it to Ms. Hua?"

"Okay. Thank you." Mu Xian replied.

At this time, I saw Adopu stood up, walked to the seat opposite me and sat down, took off his helmet, and I took it off too.

He looked at me, with a bright smile on his dark face, and his teeth were white and neat: "Miss Hua, there are very few people in the world who can pass the flight test like a commander without any training, and there are more people like us. A normal person. And his talent also prevents him from telling you how to relieve the pain."

I thought I was right, Mu Xian is a freak.

"Try to slow down your breathing rate and bend your knees..." Adopu said a few measures slowly and clearly, and I followed them one by one. He praised gently: "Very good. If there is still A bump, you can try to see if it improves."

I had a very good impression of him, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Adorp." He smiled: "It is my honor to escort you back to the base. I believe the commander will lead the fleet to victory in the war."

I heard the word "war" and my heart skipped a beat.

"How's the battle going? May I know?"

A Daopu was slightly taken aback, and said with a smile: "Of course, your authority level is the same as that of the commander."

Why?Last time I failed to escape, didn't Mu Xian suspend all my permissions?Called back again?I couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Just listen to Adopu continue to say: "According to the reconnaissance results, the mercenaries dispatched about three space fortresses, more than 30 warships, and countless fighter jets. Currently, they are mainly operating within ten light-years around the Time Pillar."

Although I don't understand the concept of these numbers, but his expression is dignified, so it should be difficult to deal with.

"But the terrible thing is that for thirty hours, we lost contact with the fortress defenders and Commander Bai Lang." A look of worry appeared on his heroic brows, "It can already be judged that something is wrong with the fortress army. Otherwise, the mercenaries It is also impossible to cross the fort in a grand manner and reach the vicinity of the Pillar of Time."

I nodded, it's not hard to guess.

He also said: "The reconnaissance planes sent to the fortress have not returned, and they should have been intercepted by mercenaries. If we can get news from inside the fortress, the situation will be much clearer." He relaxed his tone again: "But you don't have to Worrying, with the commander around, the mercenaries won't get what they want."

I nodded and looked outside the cabin ahead.His plane was smooth and steady, still in the same place.

After sailing for another hour, we arrived at an open star field.The Pillar of Time is no longer visible, the dark night sky, the snow-white stars are clean and gentle, and the belt of black boulders can be vaguely seen, floating at the end of the starry sky like the purest black color in the middle of the night.

It takes 20 minutes for the engine to warm up, and everyone waited quietly.Listening to the empty communication channel, I actually felt a sense of sadness about parting.

I thought I should bid him farewell, even out of politeness, in full view.How to word it?Wish him all the best?Let him take care of himself?
"Wait." Adopu's voice suddenly sounded, "Commander, I received a distress signal, which is very close to our position. It's blurry...it's clear! The identification code is being decoded..."

His voice suddenly became excited: "It's Major Luna! It's her! Her signal is approaching rapidly, just behind the boulder belt!"

Everyone fell silent, and I was also taken aback—I knew that Luna was Bai Lang's wife, and they were guarding the fortress together.Why did she suddenly appear here?

Mu Xian's cold voice sounded: "Adopu, you continue to perform the jump. The others turn off the jump engine."

My heart skipped a beat——Mu Xian wants to send me back first, and save Luna by himself?But this is not a trap, is it?
Impossible, Adopu said, he used the system to randomly plan our return route, and the possibility of being tracked is extremely small.It's impossible for someone to set a trap and wait here.

"Didi Didi——" The cabin radar sounded the warning sound of the discovery of UFOs, and I heard Mu Xian's short and powerful voice: "Luna, Luna!"

After a brief chatter, a familiar and slightly intermittent voice came: "Commander! It's me! You are also in this star field? The fortress is under control, repeat, the fortress is under control! Deputy Chief Zhuo Wu rebelled, and he killed Bai Lang! Zhuo Wu defected to the mercenaries and took control of the headquarters."

Her voice was anxious and painful, but Mu Xian's voice was extremely calm: "How did you escape?"

"Bai Lang has been secretly preparing several emergency escape ships to deal with emergencies. We escaped with three ships. Now there are eight mercenary fighters chasing us!" Luna replied.

If Luna really escaped from the fortress, then the information she possesses will be very crucial to the battle situation.

"Your highest security code." Mu Xian said suddenly.Luna quickly reported a series of numbers.

I figured it must be some sort of confirmation of intelligence between them.

Mu Xian said, "We're here to save you."

As soon as the voice fell, I saw three fighters outside the cabin that were originally parallel to us, and at the same time, a beautiful rollover drew a faint dark silver arc in the air, and quickly disappeared from sight.

My heart skipped a beat.

We're here to save you - a very plain sentence, Mu Xian's voice was even a little cold.

But I somehow feel that this sentence is very passionate.

A calm, slightly arrogant blood.

Mu Xian's side face suddenly appeared in my mind, fair and handsome, indifferent and quiet.

While the jump engine was warming up, our plane continued to sail forward, getting farther and farther away from the direction where Mu Xian left.

At this moment, Adopu suddenly raised his hand and pulled down a screen from the cabin roof.The blue light flashed, and the picture went from blurry to clear.I know that fighter planes are generally equipped with high-power cameras, it seems that he intends to check the fighting situation behind him.

On the pilot, the countdown to the FTL jump continued.

**
The night was vast, and maybe it was because of a different mood. At this time, the floating black boulder belt looked like a ferocious monster, crawling across the stars.

Several dark gray fighter planes emerged from behind the boulder belt, the flames were intense, and there was a scuffle.The three fighters led by Mu Xian rushed over almost straight, and suddenly separated at a very close place, occupying three positions high on the battlefield, and began to shoot downward.

I don't know much about fighting, but seeing their beautiful changing formations, I feel very good.I have been keeping a close eye on the plane in the middle, they all look the same, if I'm not paying attention, I won't be able to recognize which one is Mu Xian.

But soon I knew that my worries were futile.Because he was so easy to identify—his flight trajectory was the most concise and clear, and his flight speed was the fastest. In a very short period of time, he had already destroyed three enemy planes.

The fight ended very quickly.After maybe seven or eight minutes, the boulder belt was already full of floating debris.Mu Xian's six planes (including Luna's three battered fighter planes) quickly formed a wedge-shaped formation and turned around towards us.

"Commander, let's leave here immediately. I'm afraid other pursuers will catch up." Luna's voice had calmed down.

"Start hyperdrive," I heard his thin voice say.

"Yes." Everyone replied in unison, and the respect and excitement in their voices could be heard.

"There are 2 minutes to perform the jump," Adoup said.

I watched them approaching from a distance, I am afraid that when we approached, we had already jumped away.I hesitated for a while, and called out in a low voice, "Mu Xian."

All of a sudden the channel fell silent.

Mu Xian's soft voice sounded: "Well, I'm here."

I said I……"

I couldn't finish my sentence.

Because a rush of radar sirens suddenly rang through the helmet, overwhelming my already low voice.At the same time, I raised my head and saw directly ahead, Mu Xian and the others were sailing towards our channel, clusters of white lights were like lightning exploding from the ground, fleeting.

I'm out of breath—is that... FTL jump?Who is jumping?
"Mercenaries!" Adopu yelled.

The chasers are coming!

Everything after that happened lightning fast.

Five medium-sized black battleships appeared around Mu Xian and the others, each of which was larger than their sum.After a brief silence, dense artillery fire intertwined into a net, trapping them in the middle.

The strength of the two sides is completely different.

I saw dark gray fighter planes spinning, falling, and exploding; I saw planes rampaging under fire that could destroy everything but escaped nowhere... Finally, I saw a plane with its fuselage on fire, like a phoenix reborn Generally, he pulled up from the encirclement on the ground, rushed straight to a height of several thousand meters, and then turned around and shot at a medium-sized warship below.

Compared with the size of the two, they are like weak rabbits and elephants.But after a burst of rapid fire from the plane, a violent flame suddenly rose from the middle of the battleship, and then exploded violently, leaving no bones left in an instant.

"It's the commander!" Adopp's voice was trembling, "He destroyed the energy compartment of the battleship!" There was no joy in his voice.

Because Mu Xian was quickly re-surrounded by four warships, one of his wings was only half burnt.

Then I saw a shell hit the belly of the aircraft, and billowing smoke came out. Like a lone bird with broken wings, he plunged headlong towards a battleship below.

The battleship was hit by him, as if being torn from the inside by force, it silently and quickly fell apart, and exploded!
And where he hit, a raging flame ignited, the wreckage of the plane rained like debris, and then... nothing left.

"Commander!" Adopu and the co-pilot roared hoarsely.

"Hua Yao, I don't know how to..." The ethereal voice, as if it didn't exist, flashed past my ears.

I stared blankly at the scene on the screen, my mind seemed to have frozen.

Fa, what happened?Mu Xian quilt, quilt...
