[Rebirth] Warframe

Chapter 47 Retreat

"You are..." Normally, Edmund would have been stared at by Yuan Zhi for a long time, but he has experienced too many things today, and now he has been stared at by Yuan Zhi for a little longer , it is not unacceptable.

Speak!The kid talked to me!

Yuan Zhi felt that the water mist in front of him seemed to be unable to be wiped clean, layer by layer, the old ones went away, and new ones came in.Brother, did you see it in the sky?Your boy, who is not far from me now, is growing strong and has his own business.

Different from Yuan Zhi's emotion, Edmund's brows became more and more wrinkled, "Excuse me, who are you?"

"Um...I'm...cough!" Yuan Zhi, who cleared his nose and tears, finally realized his gaffe, "Well, I'm...I am, I'm Mr. Gary's friend. My name is Yuan Zhi."

"Hello, Mr. Yuan Zhi." This kind of explanation obviously cannot win Edmund's trust. The most obvious thing is that his frown has not been relaxed at all because of Yuan Zhi's explanation.Moreover, the name Yuan Zhi sounds a little familiar.In the end, where did you hear it?Edmund tried his best to search for all kinds of information about this name in his mind.

"Hello, hello." Yuan Zhi felt that at this moment, not only his legs were heavy as if filled with cement, but even his fingers trembled slightly.

"Hello, I just heard that you captured Turner, the leader of the pirate Murphy's subordinates?" No matter how weird the middle-aged man looked, at least he was not his enemy yet, and he was right in front of his eyes. Underneath, even if he wanted to run away, he would not be able to. On the contrary, Eugene Turner in his hands was more attractive to him.

"Yes, Turner, Eugene Turner, and several of his subordinates." After saying a few words, Yuan Zhi finally regained his usual self, "Man, I will kill him right now." Locked in the cell below, if necessary, I can ask Xiao Mo to switch the video to it."

"Okay." Seeing is believing. Edmund has fought against Murphy, Turner and others too many times before. In his impression, these people are as slippery as mud eels in the river. He really didn't quite believe what he said for the other party's small physique that didn't look muscular at all.

"Wait a minute. Xiaomo?"

"Okay." Xiao Mo, who had been hiding on the side and peeking at Guangming Zhenda, agreed, and connected the surveillance probe aimed at the cell into the video call in twos and twos.I saw a dozen big men lying side by side in a square hut, while Turner himself was leaning in the corner, staring viciously at the small window where Yuan Zhi appeared just now, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind .

"It's really him." Edmund could recognize Turner's appearance even when he was burned to ashes, "This man is very cunning and powerful, Mr. Yuan Zhi, are you sure that the place where he is being held is safe enough? If it is convenient, I still hope to send someone to take him to a military cell and detain him."

"No matter how the military decides, I personally have no opinion. However, my cell uses some special technology, not to mention relying on brute force, and I don't have any equipment at hand. It is difficult to wear it down. Not to mention, the lives of his subordinates are now in my hands, if he is righteous enough, it is impossible for him to leave them and escape by himself."

Special technique?Edmund subconsciously took a closer look at the cell that trapped Turner, as if he wanted to tell the difference with the naked eye, "You just said that the lives of Turner's men are in your hands. superior?"

"Well, I gave them some medicine." Yuan Zhi said, motioning to Xiao Mo to control the surveillance probe, and slowly sweep over the pirates lying on the ground, "They look like they are asleep now gone."

While fulfilling the master's order, he was distracted to observe Turner, who hadn't moved for a long time.

What a strange man!

As if sensing that someone was watching him one after another, Turner raised his head abruptly, his eyes fixed on the position where the surveillance probe was installed in the cell, "Come out if you have the ability, don't hide in the corner like a mouse It’s the same as poking around.”

scare!Xiao Mo felt his little heart tremble, his intuition was too strong, it was really scary!

It was not only Xiao Mo who was also frightened by Turner, but also Edmund and others who were also paying attention to Turner's actions.Although everyone couldn't hear what Turner said, his current expression was vividly transmitted to everyone through the image.

"Mr. Yuan Zhi, can you zoom in on Turner's image?" Edmund looked at the battle outside and didn't need to worry too much for the time being, so he naturally wanted to focus more on Turner, " If I could, I'd like to know what he just said."

"No problem, Xiao Mo?" Of course, Yuan Zhi wanted to satisfy his nephew's request as much as possible, and he wished that Edmund could ask for more from him!

Xiao Mo thought for a while, and decisively divided the transmitted signal into three parts. One part showed everyone who was talking at the moment, and the other part showed Turner's real-time status in the cell, so that everyone could see him. Whatever he was doing, he could hear what he said.The last one showed what Turner did after Yuan Zhi left the cell.

Obviously, the people in front of them were more concerned about the last of the three videos, and all their attention was on it.

It turned out that after Yuan Zhi left, Turner was not as calm as he showed now.First of all, with a fluke mentality, he fiddled with the subordinates lying on the ground one by one, until he was sure that Yuan Zhi was not lying, then he slowly moved to the corner and stood still.

Years of pirate career made Turner understand that this time he met a really powerful character, and if he escaped, maybe he would have a chance to be born again. If he couldn't escape, he might really be planted here .As for foreign aid, just like what the masked man said last before he left, he hadn't been able to contact Murphy for several hours. At the same time as Fang delivered the goods, a small group of people came to look for him.If the boss is also lacking in skills, without any help, let him find a way to escape from this prison of unknown size and staffing, the chances of winning are basically negligible.

Just when Turner was feeling overwhelmed, he suddenly and keenly noticed that someone seemed to be observing him from a place he couldn't see.This is not a good sign, Turner clenched his fists secretly, and decided to take the lead even if he took the risk.So, there was the scene that everyone saw later.

"Why, are you afraid to come out, or have no face to come out?" Turner paused, not sure if he was right, and asked again tentatively.

"Whether I show up or not, does it make any difference to you who have become a prisoner?" Edmund heard Turner's second question, and signaled Yuan Zhi to turn on the communication system for him, intending to test the other party to see if he could get out Some useful information came out of his mouth.

"Who the hell are you?" A very familiar voice! "Could it be that I was really fooled, and you dare not come out to meet people at all?" Thinking that the other party should be able to get him through some channel, Turner straightened his back even more.At least, in terms of momentum, he doesn't want to lose to the opponent.

"Why, don't you even know your old friends? You guys still want to cut me off halfway. It turns out that you don't know me at all." To break the opponent's psychological defense, the simplest The way is to make him feel fear.

Sure enough, there was a crack on Turner's expressionless face.

Waiting for the cut... "Are you Edmund Scott?" That's impossible!Before they came over, they got the news that this time, because the Sirius was going to carry some technicians to the first war zone, and their combat power was limited, how could they turn around and cut them off instead!No way, all of this, from the very beginning, was a scam, waiting for them to get into the trap by themselves, right? !

It is true that every year I hunt geese, but I am blinded by geese.

"I know what you're thinking in your heart now, winner and loser, this is the ending between us."

A trace of resignation flashed in Turner's eyes. He never thought that one day he would lose so miserably that he wouldn't even have a chance to fight back, "However, you didn't get this kind of ending in a fair way. If you have the ability, you release me, we two fight alone, if I lose again, I will be willing to let you handle it."

"Hehe, do you think I'm a fool? I've already trapped you in a cage, why should I let you out again and let you fight with me alone?" Turner's words concealed a lot of information, Ed Meng really digested it for a while, and then slowly set his sights on Yuan Zhi.Obviously, when this person arrested Turner and others, he used a strategy. "There are 36 strategies in the art of war, and each strategy can be used in multiple ways. What's more, these strategies can also be used in conjunction with each other." The reason why you became a prisoner today is that your brain circuit is too simple, so you can be easily fooled."

Your brain circuit is simple!Turner clenched his fists and stared fiercely towards a certain direction of the cell, "Yes, then I would like to congratulate you! You made such a good trap for me to slip through. You wait, wait for me Boss has defeated all of you lackeys of the Shengxia Empire, I will definitely tie a knot with my own hands, and wait for you to stick your head in and hang yourself."

"I am looking forward to that day." In the process of fighting the enemy, Edmund has heard words ten times worse than this, and he will not be angry at all, "But, on that day Before you come, shouldn't you think of a way to get out of that cell?"

"..." Turner slammed his fist hard on the steel plate beside him.Judging from his usual training standards, although his punch did not use external force, even if it could not cause substantial damage to the cell, at least it would leave a little mark.However, this time, Turner clearly felt that his punch just now seemed to hit an extremely soft substance. Most of the original strength was removed, and the remaining point seemed to be It was all the reaction on my own hands.

It hurts.

Turner moved his fingers slightly, and after confirming that there was no problem with the bones, he resisted the urge to turn his head to look at the iron plate behind him, and continued to deal with Edmund, "Major Scott, after talking for so long, I I just realized, are you shameful today? Why do you keep using the microphone to speak, but you dare not come out and stand face to face with me?"

"It's enough to have a microphone to talk to you." His current position is separated by hundreds of thousands of miles from Stone Star, even if he wants to stand in front of Turner right away, "You are just mine now." Just a prisoner."

"It's not forever." Until the last moment, Turner still firmly believed that he would see the sun again one day, and he would not always be under the control of others.

It's really stubborn, "Then you just wait honestly in the cell, and I will send your boss Murphy in to be your company in a short time."

"Don't talk too much."

Edmund was not in a hurry to reply this time, but decisively signaled Yuan Zhi to cut off the call with Turner, and explained for everyone, "I believe you have all seen that although Turner is a big-hearted guy on the surface, and he does things He is always out of his mind, but he is a very stubborn person in essence. As long as it is something he is sure of, he will never hit the south wall and never look back. If such a person can get on the right track, he will have become the version of the society. advanced model."

"Unfortunately, things backfired. He is now just a prisoner. Sooner or later, he will be judged by the Empire and pay the due price for the crimes he committed." Colonel Cook himself is also a very reasonable person, in his concept , what is wrong is wrong, no matter how you change it, it will not become right.

"Indeed." Through the video, Edmund looked at the maddened Turner again.This person's temper seemed to be more restrained than when he saw it a few months ago.It can be seen that Murphy has worked hard on him. "Mr. Yuanzhi, can I trouble you with something?"

"Tell me!" Yuan Zhi is of course willing to do something for his nephew, "Let me do whatever."

"Hmm." Isn't that too positive?Edmund felt a flock of crows whizzing past his head, "It's convenient, before we capture Murphy's Silver Fleet, please visit him every half hour. At the same time, pay attention Take care of your own safety and try to wear a hot weapon with you. I remember that when I was interrogating the pirates under Murphy, someone told me that Turner had a special skill in picking locks. As long as you give him time and a few tools, there is no one in this world There is no door that can stop him."

"Okay, I will definitely do it." Yuan Zhi first responded, and after praising his nephew Edmund's politeness and thoughtfulness, he quietly revealed the secret about the cell.

It turned out that when this underground laboratory was being built, someone had inadvertently discovered that by fusing a certain metal on this stone star with ordinary metals in a certain proportion, it could not only enhance the toughness of the metal, but also strengthen the metal. Hardness increases by more than one level.

Later, the builder didn't know what the purpose was. After completing most of the main body of the laboratory, he made a huge cell entirely using this metal on a whim.And based on the principle of Luban lock, a strange big lock was made for the cell, which was placed on the outer ceiling.Therefore, unless someone ran to help, don't think about escaping from the prison with your own strength.

Hearing this, Smith felt a little relieved that Yuan Zhi needed to guard a prisoner like Turner alone who was so strong that he had to report to him, but he couldn't help but give Yuan Zhi a few more words.As soon as he turned around, Smith met Edmund's probing eyes, "Sorry, it's not the time to tell a story yet, I will give you a reasonable explanation when everything is over."

"I hope so." The feeling of being played around at the moment is not good at all.If it weren't for his incapacity at the moment, he would not have tolerated Smith's secretive behavior at all.

Smith took half a step back slightly, stood with Colonel Cook, and smiled wryly.The latter stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder lightly, wishing him good luck. In this situation, it is really not a good time to tell a secret.

No matter how different the minds of the people on this military supply ship are, the battle outside the ship is still going on, and it is gradually becoming more intense.

The brother was gone, and the Sirius, which could have been taken easily, had now become something out of reach. Murphy was in an extremely bad mood. "Hit, hit me hard! Use all the heavy weapons on our ship! I don't believe it, they are all made of iron, and they don't spare their lives at all!"

"Wait a second! Murphy, calm down." A man in a wheelchair who was pushed into the main control room stopped Murphy's order just now. Using all the weapons may not be able to achieve the goal and turn the world around. On the contrary, if you use limited resources to gain a future that you can't even see, you are just joking with the lives of the brothers below!"

"Ming Xu!" Murphy was taken aback by the sudden voice, turned around and saw Ming Xu, who was supposed to be resting in the cabin at this time, managed the wheelchair by himself and ran to the main control room, "You are not in the cabin Rest here, what are you doing here!"

"I'm still resting?" I don't know if it's because he was originally sick, or because he was irritated by Murphy's reckless behavior, Mingxu's face was pale and pale at this time, as if he might die at any time, " Turner is gone, if I can still sleep in the cabin at this time, I won’t be read to death by the brothers below!”

"Mingxu, don't get excited, calm down, the doctor told you to stop arrogance and impetuosity, and try to calm your mind." Murphy was obviously frightened by Mingxu's sudden anger, and hurriedly got up to give Mingxu Shun back, "Just like what you said just now, Turner's life and death are now in doubt, you can't have any more accidents! Otherwise, wouldn't it be that if you want me to let me, I will be left alone?"

"So you still know that something happened to Turner. Does the entire Silver Fleet still need you here?" Mingxu didn't accept his favor at all, and pushed Murphy's hand away from his body as soon as he raised his hand, and continued He coughed loudly.

"Mingxu, drink some water first, I'll have someone send you back to the cabin, and call the doctor over by the way." Seeing Mingxu coughing loudly, wishing to cough up all the internal organs on his body, Murphy also forgot for a moment that he originally wanted to gather all the weapons and plan to fight the fleet on the opposite side, "Hurry up, someone, send Mingxu back to his cabin, and call the doctor as well." past!"

"I'm not going back!" After coughing for a while, Mingxu grabbed Murphy's hand reluctantly, "You can't fight the military head-on, even for me, you can't fight the military head-on! Cough, let's go! We can't continue here We are in love with the war, and we can find a way to get Turner back if we stay with Qingshan."

"Mingxu..."

"Boss, big brother!" Panting heavily, Ming Xu didn't give Murphy a chance to continue his defense, "Don't you remember why I ended up like this!? Please calm down, cough, you now Every decision made..."

"Stop talking." Murphy's handsome face was as black as the bottom of a pot, "Go to the cabin first and let the doctor show you..."

"No, I want to watch you give the order to retreat!" Ming Xu, who was in the wheelchair, let out a sigh of relief, clutching Murphy's lapel tightly, but refused to leave the main control room, "Speak—"

"I..." Seeing that the military ships under Edmund's command were already showing signs of encircling him, Murphy gritted his back teeth hard, "Retreat!"

I'm sorry, Turner, my brother, it's not that my elder brother didn't work hard to save you, but that the military's firepower is too strong, and I have to take into account the lives of more brothers under my command.

"I'm sorry." After getting the answer he wanted, Ming Xu seemed to have drained the last bit of strength from his body, and slumped on the wheelchair.

As a brother who grew up in the same orphanage since childhood, how could Mingxu want Murphy to make the decision to abandon his brother?But now they are no longer the group of little pirates with less than [-] people, who can risk their lives for a little so-called belief and persistence.They were now responsible for the brothers and their families who had come to defect, and they couldn't let Murphy let a whole ship with thousands of people follow him on an adventure because of a momentary impulse.

I'm sorry, Turner, but I'm so selfish as a brother, don't blame Murphy.

"Mingxu? Mingxu? Mingxu!" In just a flash, Murphy watched his brother, who was still fighting with him just now, completely fainted in the wheelchair. "Withdraw! Notice to go down, turn around, the rear team will change to the front team, all ships will follow the mothership, and retreat the same way!"

In the corner, a certain little pirate tilted his head and looked in the direction where Murphy pushed Mingxu on the wheelchair. He didn't turn around until the backs of the two disappeared from everyone's sight, and then turned back to get busy again.

When Mingxu woke up again, he had already returned to his own cabin, and Murphy was standing with his back behind his back, standing at the window overlooking the silent space channel.Mingxu knew that at this moment, what Murphy was looking at was definitely not the ordinary scenery outside the window, but the stone star that could no longer be seen, and Turner who was forced to stay there.

"Except for the one time a few years ago, we have never been defeated so thoroughly. We even got a brother for it." Murphy seemed to have eyes behind his back, as if he knew that Ming Xu had woken up, "Then Once, you sacrificed yourself to protect the safety of the remaining nineteen of us. I thought that this kind of thing, once in a lifetime is enough, but I didn't expect to experience it again today. "

"Turner will be fine, just like me now, am I living well?" Mingxu lying on the bed knew that his big brother must be feeling very uncomfortable right now, so why isn't he?However, at this moment, he was somewhat thankful, at least, he stopped Murphy before he made an irreversible decision.that's enough.

"Mingxu, next time, can you not do this?" Murphy turned around slowly, his eyes were red, "You make me difficult."

"But, there are some things that I don't do, who else can do them?" Mingxu laughed at himself, and at the same time, he used his unsound arms to slowly prop himself up and lean on the head of the bed, " Turner's big fool is not here, so only I have the position and ability to stop your decision, right? Now that the matter has passed, don't mention it again. Our next task is to do everything possible Find a way to get Turner back. It’s the same as I was back then, when I was born, I wanted to see people, and when I died, I wanted to see the corpse.”

"Ming Xu, I didn't say that you are a very cruel person?" Overnight, Murphy realized that he didn't seem to know this brother.

"I don't remember, but you just said it again now." Mingxu's voice was very soft, against his almost transparent skin, as if he might say a certain sentence at any time, "In every group, shouldn't someone sing a good face and someone sing a bad face? Brother, you are now the soul of the entire Silver Fleet. Your task is to sing in front of everyone. What a bad face. As for the role of offending people, let me live today, I don’t know if there will be someone tomorrow, okay?”

"Ming Xu."

"Don't talk about it, just settle down like this. It just so happens that I haven't appeared in front of people for a long time, so take this opportunity and let me do something for everyone within my ability, okay?" He said so much in one breath , Mingxu leaned on the head of the bed, panting heavily.

"Before you show off, you should take good care of your body first! If you say a few more words, you may die at any time, even if I am willing to let you back in front of others, what can you do?" Mo Fei, who was so angry at his brother's actions that he had nothing to say, rubbed his face irritably, strode over, and stuffed a cup of medicine that had been prepared on the bedside table early in the morning into Mingxu's hand, "Hurry up and drink the medicine." Yes. I just warmed it up for you, so it shouldn't burn your mouth."

"Okay. From today onwards, I will work hard to take medicine and work hard to get better." After accepting his brother's awkward concern, Mingxu slowly raised the corners of his mouth, and drank the bowl of bitter medicine into his stomach. Childishly dumped the empty bowl in front of Murphy, "No more."
