"If the Holy Stone Border Army wants to respond to us, it will definitely conflict with Dusky Star, but you look up, the Dusky Star mothership is still floating there, and there is no defensive fleet, and this is a sensitive border, Holy Stone It is impossible for the black crow to be late. It can be seen that Dusky Star has reached some kind of agreement with them. Think about it from another perspective. This is located on the border, and the right to deal with it is vague. It doesn't feel credible to want to help us."
Han Xiao paused and said: "But it is also possible that the Holy Stone did not compromise with Dusky Star and did want to protect us, but... this probability is not high."
The main reason is that he didn't say that the task requires two days to be the minimum evaluation, and it's only half an hour now, so it shouldn't be possible to get support so quickly, and his intuition tells him that there is a problem with the news of the holy stone.
Many people are thoughtful, but they can't help but have a fluke mentality, and their faces are hesitant.
At this time, a disagreement appeared, and Fasereni said solemnly: "I am willing to believe this news, there is no need for the Holy Stone to deceive us, this may be the only chance, I decided to go to the location, what do you say?"
"I'm not going." Han Xiao shook his head decisively and looked at Goya. Goya hesitated for a while before nodding to reach a consensus. Although some mercenaries on board had objections, they had to suppress their inner contradictions.
Porter hesitated for a while, and finally refused, choosing to follow Han Xiao's advice.
Fussellani frowned, "You can ask for more happiness."
After all, the Zijin spaceship suddenly deviated from the route, went to the connection point, quickly disappeared from the field of vision, and parted ways.
Han Xiao exhaled and said solemnly: "The Dusky Star reinforcements will arrive soon, our activity area will become smaller and smaller, if we continue to stay on the surface, the situation will only get worse and worse, we must go underground, the detector records After going through all the terrain just now, I found several fractured canyons and cracks. There is a lot of space under the surface of this planet, and the environment is complex and there are many obstacles. The limited space is our limitation, and it is also the limitation of chasing troops. , and the land can isolate the mothership from direct detection, providing us with a layer of cover..."
He has a rough guess about the follow-up situation. The situation is not optimistic. The reinforcement is only the first step of Dusky Star. Next, there will be restricted areas, forming an encirclement, and covering bombing, forcing them to change their routes, etc. Han Xiao thought about it and thought. To persist for two days, there is only one feasible way - to break it into pieces.
Dusky Star's target is all mercenaries, and two spaceships are two targets, but if they are scattered without being detected, every mercenary will be a target, so there will definitely be unlucky victims, but it will also increase the darkness. The time cost of star searching, after all, trying to save everyone is impractical.
"Do as you say." Goya was very trusting.
Han Xiao turned the spaceship and stared straight ahead. Soon, a long crack appeared at the end of the line of sight. It opened its mouth like a gray earth, and it was as black as an abyss. When viewed from a distance, it was just a crack. Flying close, I found that the width of the ground seam is a full tens of meters.
call-
The Sky Ring spaceship dived and flew into the crack of the ground, and the vision became pitch black.
The detector outlined the terrain in the dark and flew down two or three hundred meters. There were many caves on both sides of the rift. He pinpointed a cave and flew into it. Inside was an underground space leading to the distance.
There is a huge space underground on this planet, the passages are intricate, there are jagged rocks, and there are traces of weathering everywhere. It has been silent for countless years, and it is the first time to welcome visitors.
The blade spaceship followed suit, and the floating fleet followed, and the speed inevitably decreased. Flying in such a complex environment requires extremely high reaction power, and the space is limited. The queue of the floating fleet has to become a long snake. Due to space constraints, nearly 90% of the battleships in the team were blocked by the teammates in front and could not fire, and the attack intensity of the two ships immediately dropped to a lower level.
The two ships flew into the ground in time and escaped the surface encirclement that Dusky Star was preparing to implement.
The Zijin spaceship still lingered on the surface, all the way to the pick-up location.
Fasereni initiates a communication request to the channel that publishes the response message.
"The third formation of the Holy Stone, please answer, I have arrived at the reception location, where is the reception force?"
He repeated it time and time again, but the Holy Stone no longer responded, kept silent, did not reply for a long time, his face gradually changed, sweating profusely.
The Zijin spaceship did not dare to stop, and circled around the connection point, like a headless fly flying around, until Dusky Star's reinforcements surrounded him from all directions, Fasselini's face was pale, and he knew that there was no connection at all, Black Star is right Yes, I lost my bet.
Bang bang bang!
It's raining!
It didn't take long, the Zijin spaceship fell to the ground with smoke, the hatch opened, and the mercenaries inside fled, but a battleship was suspended in the sky, and the Dusky Star soldiers landed on the ground, outflanking, and there was no way to escape.
The struggles of Fasereni and others did not cause any waves, and they were easily subdued and escorted to the spacecraft and returned to the mothership.
The owners of the two ships that were traveling underground witnessed the encounter of the Zijin mercenaries. The fate of the friends who fought together was uncertain, and everyone couldn't help but feel sad.
If Han Xiao hadn't insisted on his own opinion, their fate would have been the same.
The mercenaries looked at Han Xiao with more trust.
"I reminded them..." Han Xiao was helpless.
Facellani was willing to gamble, but he couldn't do anything, and he couldn't jump on the Zijin spaceship to take control.
But from the point of view of interests, this can buy them some time, Dusky Star has gained, and the urgency will decrease.
…
On the streamer, the screen displayed the image of the Zijin spaceship falling, Siwadi shook his head, "Only one ship was caught, it's a pity."
The news of the response is exactly what he instructed his subordinates to publish, in order to mislead the mercenaries, let them reveal their flaws, and facilitate Dusky Star's arrest, but he did not want to help Dusky Star, Siwadi felt that these mercenaries would definitely not be able to escape , being caught is a matter of time, he is just accelerating the process, the sooner the mercenary is caught, the sooner Dusky Star can leave.
The two armies of the Holy Stone and the Black Crow are on standby here. These mercenaries are also wasting their time with unnecessary struggles, so the armies of the two major civilizations have to continue to stay here to monitor, increase the workload, and bring risks . Siwadi only wants Dusky Star to get out of the way, and to implement such a decision is entirely out of self-interest.
Moreover, this move did not formally interfere, and it did not really help Dusky Star, but it only sent a message, which was harmless.
As for Dusky Star's plans, he really doesn't care. Dusky Star and their well water do not commit river water. No matter what conspiracy is carried out, only Gedora suffers. The Holy Stone is not obliged to help Gedora to eradicate the enemy. storm.
It's a pity that the mercenaries are not all fooled.
"Report to the commander, the target is underground, we can't observe the direct picture."
"Stay on standby." Siwadi shook his head.
After entering the underground, they can't see the specific picture, all they can do is wait.
…
In the dark underground space, I saw a flash of light, all of which were high-speed spaceships and battleships.
Boom!
The rock wall was hit by the laser and partially collapsed. Many stones hit the shield of the Tianhuan spaceship, making a thumping sound, and were smashed into stone powder by the high-speed spaceship.
The underground chase lasted for several hours. Due to the limited space, too large battleships could not enter, and Dusky Star could only use floating ships to chase.
The underground space was extremely tortuous and pitch-dark. He could only rely on the blurry images of the detectors to avoid obstacles. Han Xiao was highly focused and did not collide along the way, but the floating ships in the rear made more and more mistakes. The stone pillars or beams, the gravel splashed, and the rumblings continued. The contrast was obvious. The chasing troops gradually couldn’t see Han Xiao’s taillights and were left far behind.
The blade ship was not so lucky, and it was still entangled by the pursuit troops, which made people terrified. Porter's operation made people uncomfortable, and the blade mercenaries could not wait to change ships.
Coincidentally, Tianhuan people think so too.
"I can't see the floating ship, I can only hear the sound, they are still chasing." Han Xiao glanced at the background and said: "After dragging for a few hours, Dusky Star's tolerance is almost at its limit."
"We... are almost... at the limit... "
Melos almost collapsed, and it was only intermittently that he could finish a complete sentence.
His condition is considered good, at least he can speak. Beside him, the Tianhuan mercenary lay on the ground like a dead pig, his eyes are blank, a stream of white foam keeps emerging from the corners of his mouth, his hands and feet twitch from time to time, and the ground is full of It's ice slag... Well, the ice that froze my legs to fix it has been shattered.
Han Xiao was about to say something when the underground space shook violently!
rumbling—
The sound of explosions came from all directions, and for a while, it was like the earth was shaking!
"This is... bombing?" Ge Yaqiang energized, his tone changed slightly.
"Well, it should be like this, Dusky Star began to bomb the surface, wanting to trigger a chain reaction, let the underground space collapse, so as to force us back to the surface, just like driving the mice out of the cave, when the surface encirclement is closed, we will There is no escape."
Han Xiao's tone was calm, he had guessed about such a development, and he could keep calm when it happened.
"Is there no way?!" Goya looked unwilling.
"Having towed with a spaceship for a few hours is already the limit."
Taking a deep breath, Han Xiao said slowly, "Abandon the ship."
Everyone looked shocked. The spaceship was their only reliance. If they abandoned the ship, it would mean a complete loss of mobility, and it would really become a turtle in a urn.
