Star Hunting Guide

The investigator's monotonous reply came from the loudspeaker from time to time. The calmness made people nervous. Russell stood there with his arms folded, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.After a while, the cabin door opened, and Evans also walked in, asking, "Why is the flight suspended?"

Russell explained briefly. As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden loud electric sound from the speaker, as if it had been seriously disturbed, and then fell into complete silence. At the same time, the synchronous video was also stuck in a On the frame screen, no new signal is transmitted.

"What's going on?" The captain of the guard said to himself, refreshed the signal, but there was still no response.

"Level [-] Alert, Level [-] Alert!" A cold notification sounded from the system, "Level [-] alert for all attacking ships!" Immediately afterwards, the Commander-in-Chief of the escort fleet sent an order, asking Chang'e to enter the formation's key defense area.

"Is there an enemy?" Russell became nervous. Speaking of which, he had seen a lot of big scenes coming and going in the wind and rain, but after all, this time the two sons were by his side, and it would take another ten hours for Sauter to arrive. At first it sounded a little scary.

"I don't know." The captain of the guard hurriedly maneuvered the ship to retreat to the designated location. Russell sat on the co-pilot's seat and helped him fine-tune the coordinates. Just as he turned around, Yop suddenly ran in in a panic, holding Bibi in his arms. Qi, anxiously said: "Boss, the child suddenly vomited and said he had a headache!"

"Ah?" Russell was startled, his hands trembled, and the Chang'e almost hit a moving destroyer next to him. He calmed down and concentrated on driving, and said to Yop, "Call the imperial doctor."

Some guards immediately called for the imperial physician, and Evans took Beachy from Yop's hands and asked coldly, "What did you do to him?"

Yop looked at the child helplessly, tears were about to come down: "I, I didn't do anything, he, he just fell down suddenly just now, I, I haven't had time to call the imperial doctor..."

Evans didn't accuse him of anything, he gently stroked Beachy's curly hair, and the child hugged his head in his arms and moaned, as if he was extremely uncomfortable.Soon the imperial doctor rushed over to scan the child's brain, and Panser also followed, nervously grabbing the corner of Evans's clothes, and said, "What's wrong with Grandpa Beech? Why is he having a headache again? "

again?Evans was reminded by him, looked at the imperial doctor, and the imperial doctor immediately remembered the time when Beech fell ill in the invisible space station before, and said: "Could there be fluctuations in the nearby energy field? Prince Beech's brainwaves have been affected again. interference?"

"The energy field fluctuates?" Yop's face turned pale, his body shook, and he murmured, "No, it won't...the wormhole cannot appear here."

Hearing the word "wormhole", Russell's head buzzed. He was really afraid of something. Could it be that Andreev's running away was such a tragedy that they met them?

Man, you can't be too lucky...

Everyone looked at each other, unable to believe this terrible conjecture. At this time, Beach suddenly let out a scream. Russell shuddered. Seeing that the position adjustment was almost done, he hurriedly dropped the pilot and ran over to hug his son. His eyes and face were blue, and his heart was about to break.

Chang'e shook violently, as if an invisible wave was coming, the lights flickered for a while and then turned back on, and the deep voice of the fleet commander came from the system: "Everyone is on first-level alert, retreat at full speed, We have encountered a small group of rebels who have broken through, and the initial estimate is more than five times the size of ours. Everyone pay attention, do not confront the rebels before His Majesty Sauter and the Special Forces arrive, and do not reveal our true identity. We must protect Chang'e The safety of the number!"

Rebels?Everyone's expressions changed, and after a few seconds of silence, Russell asked, "Have the probes and reconnaissance planes responded?"

The commander-in-chief said: "The probe fell into the wormhole, and the reconnaissance plane has been destroyed, but before it was destroyed, a video was sent back for us."

The captain of the guard immediately turned on the [-]D projection, the signal flashed, and a huge fleet appeared in everyone's field of vision, led by a huge black ship. Russell gasped, and said in a deep voice, "Hercules!"

The fierce battle two years ago is still vivid in his memory. Although Russell was seriously injured at the time and was very weak due to threatened abortion, the car of Andreev definitely left a deep impression on him. He still remembers that car to this day. The scene of the brown dragon and Sauter fighting, and the Hercules just formed the background at that time.

The commander-in-chief in the intercom continued: "I have reported the situation to His Majesty Sauter, and they are coming at full speed. The nearby cruise guards should have also received our news, and I believe they will come for reinforcements within a few hours. "

Russell settled down and asked: "Which direction do the rebels want to retreat? Is there a conflict with our route? Can we retreat or change the route to bypass them? Did they launch further attacks after shooting down the reconnaissance plane?" He wasn't afraid of death himself, but he couldn't risk the children.

The commander-in-chief said: "I understand what you mean, sir. I have ordered the retreat. No accident, they just fled. If we didn't take the initiative to attack them, they shouldn't be the first to initiate provocation." It's a bit embarrassing to give way, but there are three generations of Bai's family here, and the commander-in-chief never dares to take risks, so he can only let them pass first, hoping that the cruise fleet will intercept them.

I have thought of all the ways I can think of, and there is no better choice for a while, everyone fell into silence, and the pilot manipulated the ship to retreat slowly in an orderly manner according to the alert formation.Perhaps because of the disappearance of the wormhole and the restoration of the energy field, Beachy slowly recovered his composure, but his complexion was still grim. He was tired of hugging Russell's neck, and Panser, who usually likes to compete with his younger brother for favor, would now Standing obediently next to his father, Xiaopang was holding the corner of his clothes.

In the empty universe, the rebel fleet after passing through the wormhole is quickly gathering, and gradually formed a battle formation. In the main control room of the Hercules, Andreev stared at the holographic star field with a solemn expression, and his rough big-handed habits Sexually stroking the hard hair on his head.

"That's the probe of the Mecha Corps." An aide said, "The scout plane that was destroyed is also the most common model of the Mecha Corps. We should have only encountered the Imperial Fleet on a regular cruise."

Andreev shook his head slowly: "If it is a cruise fleet, we should immediately raise the alarm or open fire when we encounter it. Why did they retreat instead?"

"Their strength is only one-fifth of ours. Maybe they just don't want to hit the stone with a pebble. I think they want to avoid us first and attack after the backup arrives."

Andreev frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "No, Charles is Sauter's most trusted admiral. Their fighting styles are very similar. Even if there is a disparity in strength, they will never turn around and run away. And the mission of the cruise fleet is to snipe Our small army, not to mention that the reconnaissance plane has seen the Hercules just now, they will definitely suspect that I am in the formation, and there is no reason to retreat quietly at this time." After pondering for a while, he said, "They It is very likely that there are other missions... Immediately have someone scan the opponent's fleet to see if there is any abnormality."

"Your Majesty, we don't have much time." The staff said worriedly, "Even if they don't attack us, they must have notified the nearby army. We have to leave this star field immediately. The second leap must start as soon as possible. If Gray Before the formation of the Dao, a large number of reinforcements arrived, and it is difficult for us to resist them with our current firepower."

Andreev thought for a while, and decided to take the best of both worlds: "Let the engineers start building the wormhole, send a small spaceship out to catch up with the cruise fleet, and scan a picture for me as much as possible."

"Yes." The staff had no choice but to ask someone to release a small unmanned spaceship. The communication soldier remotely operated and scanned it. It was discovered halfway through the scan, and it was destroyed immediately. A ball of sparks burst out in the lonely universe and turned into ashes. .

"Only half of the scanned image." The communications soldier entered the scanning result into the [-]D projection, and the figure of a small fleet appeared in front of Andreev. Because it was too far away, the clarity was not high, but his eagle-like eyes were already tight Stick to it and observe carefully, unwilling to let go of even a small detail.

After watching for a few seconds, Andreev suddenly magnified a position ten times, and two unremarkable transport ships appeared, with a faint mark on the wing: "What is this?"

"Well, this is not the logo of the Mech Corps." The staff observed carefully, and said, "It seems to be the mark of the Royal Guard... Also here, there is a transport ship with the stern exposed, which does not look like a ship of the Imperial Army. "

"I know this ship. It comes from Gaia! Those two ships are Solt's Royal Guard." Andreev's pupils shrank suddenly, "Sott Bai is in the formation!" After a pause, he calmed down He came down and said, "No! It won't be him, if he is here, he will never let the fleet back... Then, it's his family!" Turning around, he shouted to the guards, "Check out which planets are along this route, and what planets are there along the route? Yes, check to see if there is any news about the Gaia caterpillar in the Sauter family recently."

"Your Majesty, let's prepare for the jump as soon as possible!" The staff advised, "If Emperor Soter is on board, we'd better leave here immediately, even if his family is here, it won't do us any good..."

"Don't put all your eggs in one basket at any time." Andreev's long and narrow eyes narrowed dangerously. "I'm afraid our wormhole transition technology is not that perfect, and we still need a double insurance!"

The guards quickly found out the news: "Your Majesty, there are three supply stations of the imperial army on this route, and there is also a mine star, and the owner of the mine star is Russell, the partner of Emperor Sauter!"

The secretary also reported the search results: "The news shows that Russell will visit the mine star every few months, and it is likely to be here recently."

The corner of Andreev's cold mouth grinned down, and he clenched his right fist and slammed the table hard: "Catch up, surround them, and open fire freely. Except for the Gaia star transport ship, the others... all are wiped out!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" the staff said worriedly, "Our wormhole energy is too small, and the ships following us have limited firepower, and we don't have any supplies or backup. In the future, we may have to deal with interstellar pirates when we break out of the δ galaxy. At this time... "

"Stop talking!" Andreev interrupted him violently, "Do as I tell you!"

"Yes!"

The escort fleet never thought that what the retreat would bring was not safety, but unscrupulous indiscriminate bombing. Although the commander of the fleet had already deployed a first-level security, due to the huge difference in the strength of the enemy and us, several were shot down soon. Destroyer.

"Retreat at full speed!" In the Chang'e, the captain of the guard left some people on board for close protection, while others drove a small spaceship with quick response for external defense. Under the cover of the squad, they retreated rapidly along the channel.Russell handed the child over to the imperial doctor and Yop, and personally sat in the co-pilot position to assist in the flight. Although he has no professional combat training, this is his ship after all, and he is considered talented in driving. The transport vehicle bulldozer Mining mechs and everything have been driven for a few days.

"They are coming for the Chang'e!" Russell quickly saw the way of the opponent's attack. The firepower of the Hercules kept biting the Chang'e, and the surrounding escort ships were hit from time to time, but the Chang'e never Injured, it is obvious that Andreev is going to catch him alive.

The firepower of the rebel army is so powerful that the fleet can't last for ten hours at all, and the entire army may be wiped out before Sauter arrives.

Andreev recognized my ship!Russell was thinking quickly while manipulating the spaceship. The Chang'e is a civilian transport ship from the Milky Way. Its shape and performance are very different from those of the local ships of the Delta galaxy. It has been on the gossip news a few times. Many people know that it is their own. It's not unusual for Andreev to recognize the car. Now he is chasing the Chang'e and not destroying it. Obviously, he wants to capture himself alive.

From Andreev's point of view, there is obviously no more suitable captive than him at this moment. As long as he is a hostage in his hand, he may be able to escape from the devouring star system without even using a wormhole.

For a moment, the heroic images of ancient sages and contemporary heroes rushed into Russell's mind, and instantly made him feel a tragic mood. Rather than letting Andreev catch it, it would be better to die with all ammunition and food, so as not to drag Sauter down and affect the battle situation. Wouldn't it be harmful for thousands of years if this big devil was allowed to slip away again?What is my own life compared to so many innocent poor people!

But looking back, Russell's lofty sentiments turned into love for his children. Panser and Beach are still so young, how can he let the two children take risks with him as a father?And Evans, too, and Jopp with a big belly.

The fire was raging outside, and the escort fleet had already been damaged by more than half, and it would be too late to make a decision. Russell took a deep breath, and said to the captain of the guard: "Let's surrender."

"Sir!" The captain of the guard looked at him painfully, but at this moment he couldn't think of a better way. It is true that if he surrendered, he would undoubtedly give Andreev a gold medal to avoid death, and at the same time give him a hand. Invincible sword, but this is the only way to delay time. If you continue to resist, everyone will be blasted to pieces by the light cannon, and Chang'e will still not be able to escape.
