Interstellar Artist 17
Suppressing the tension and anxiety in his heart, Zuo Lei quickly walked into the command podium of the ship's command cabin, looked at the large screen on the podium, and asked the soldiers on the console, "How is the situation now?"
"This group of star thieves is huge in number, and they made forced landings scatteredly. One of them was blown up when it was in the air, but there are too many of them, and a small number of them have made forced landings successfully." The soldier quickly replied.
"Where are those art soldiers? Have they moved to a safe place?" This is what Zuo Lei is most anxious to know.
"The news came three minutes ago that the art soldiers have successfully moved to a safe place to hide." The soldier replied.
Zuo Lei turned around, strode towards the deputy captain Vened who was sitting on the command chair in the middle, and said to him, "Those star robbers who made a forced landing must want to wait until the storm stone has passed before escaping. Find the place where the literary soldiers are hiding, and if the literary soldiers are taken hostage, we will be completely passive."
"You want to take someone there?" Wined looked at him, and explained the main intention of saying these words for him.
"... Please allow me to lead the troops to the rescue." Zuo Lei asked seriously.
"You are the captain of the special operations team, and you want to lead your troops to deal with a group of star thieves? What about your sanity?" Wined looked at him and said, "The garrisons of the planets closest to planet a11 have all sent troops there. , you don’t need to worry, a group of star thieves won’t last long under the attack of our regular army.”
"If it's an air battle, even ten groups of star thieves won't last long under the attack of our regular army. But now that some star thieves have made a forced landing, land battles have too many variables, even if we have the upper hand , In case they are the first to find the hiding place of the Art Soldiers, then..."
Before Zuo Lei finished speaking, the soldiers on the control platform urgently reported to Vened, "Report to the deputy captain! The a11 garrison is under control! Several star pirate ships are desperately covering those star pirates who made an emergency landing. Let our reinforcements approach."
Zuo Lei clenched his fists tightly, and he tried to remain calm and said to Vened, "It seems that the leader of the Star Bandits made an emergency landing, and their ships are just to delay the time for their leader, as long as they delay until the storm stone passes by." , the Star Pirates who successfully landed will be safe."
Vened lowered his eyes and thought, as the commander in chief of the Lion Fleet Auxiliary Army, he couldn't easily issue any combat order, and he knew very well that Zorei was so impatient because of his selfish motives.
"Deputy Captain! Only if our special operation team carries out this mission, the possibility of success will be greater!" Zuo Lei became more anxious when he saw that he was silent. What a delay.
"The art soldiers on planet a11 are members of our Lion Fleet. It is only natural and justifiable for us to send people to rescue them. You can take people away, but you must know that we have even sent special operations teams to rescue them. The mission must succeed."
"Yes!" Zuo Lei immediately turned around, almost running away from the command cabin.
Yi Bin had already led his people to get ready to set off, and when he saw Zuo Lei running over, he immediately went up to him and asked, "Have you got the mission approval, Team?"
"Let's go immediately!" Zuo Lei didn't say a word, and directly ordered to go.
Everyone boarded the rapid warship, and there were more than 20 mechas on the rapid warship, setting off to planet a11 at the fastest speed.
Zuo Lei's heart was very urgent, wishing he could turn into a ray of light and fly directly to planet a11. They couldn't feel at ease if they didn't see Tao Yuan's well-being with their own eyes. He also didn't dare to send a message to Tao Yuan, fearing that the signal would be intercepted by those star thieves who had already taken control of the station, and their hiding place would be discovered.
Tao Yuan's art soldiers, together with Dean, are hiding in the bottom floor of the underground base, protecting their soldiers on the upper floor.
Corning brought people down and gave them food and water.
"Don't worry, everyone. It's just a group of star thieves. Under the attack of our regular army, they won't last long. Rescue soldiers will arrive soon." Corning looked at the art soldiers and comforted them.
Tao Yuan opened the water bottle, took a sip of water, and then put the water and food into the largest pocket of the combat uniform. He glanced at the communicator that had been turned off. Their communicator could not be turned on until the most critical moment.
"Are you afraid?" Lin Ya asked Tao Yuan in a low voice.
"I'm a little worried, but I'm not afraid." Tao Yuan had a premonition that Zuo Lei would definitely come to rescue him.
Corning glanced at Tao Yuan, then turned and walked up.
Dean turned his head and saw that Elman was very nervous, held his hand and comforted him and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Elman nodded. Although he had passed all kinds of practical training in school, he still couldn't help being a little nervous when faced with the real situation.
It is definitely impossible to sleep now, Tao Yuan can only close his eyes and rest his mind, try to maintain his physical strength, in case of any situation, if he needs to fight, he will not be able to do without enough energy.
Dean glanced at Tao Yuan, who was closing his eyes to meditate, and then at Elman, who was so nervous that his face was pale, and sighed in his heart, thinking that Elman couldn't compare to others for his calmness alone. Not to mention. But how could he ask Elman to be better than someone who he himself thought was inferior
The waiting time is the most difficult, a few hours passed, as if it had been several days.
Hearing the hurried footsteps, Tao Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.
"The soldiers who rescued us have arrived, everyone get ready to go up!" The soldiers informed them loudly.
Everyone stood up and started walking up one after another.
Zuo Lei and the soldiers stood at the hidden entrance and exit of the underground base. The mechs and soldiers spread out with weapons raised. Zuo Lei looked at the people who kept coming out of the entrance and exit.
As soon as Dean walked outside, he saw Zuo Lei. He was stunned for a moment. Seeing Zuo Lei looking at him, he thought that the eyes of the two would meet, but when he looked carefully, he found that Zuo Lei's gaze crossed over him, looking behind him.
Dean knew who he wanted to see, so he could only hold back his sadness, bowed his head and walked aside to wait.
After Elman came out, he also took a look at Zorley, then walked to Dean's side, held his arm and said, "Brother..."
Dean patted his hand and motioned him not to speak.
After Tao Yuan came out from the inside, he met Zuo Lei's eyes, and the two walked towards each other quickly.
Zuo Lei hugged Tao Yuan tightly, he had never been so worried, until this moment, his heart was still beating very fast. Only when I feel the real existence of the person in my arms, the feeling of worry and fear slowly disappears.
The others were stunned when they saw them embracing each other. The two hugged each other like lovers. They were surprised and surprised to see them, and wondered if they were already together? How come they don't know at all
When Corning came out, he saw this scene, clenched his hands tightly, and the pain in his heart made him grit his teeth not to look at them, and turned his head to the side.
"Are you okay? Are you injured?" Zuo Lei pressed Tao Yuan's body, carefully inspected his body, and observed his face.
"I'm not injured. I've been hiding underground with the others, and I just came out now. How could I be injured? You don't have to worry about me." Tao Yuan looked at him and said.
"Big team, the storm stone is approaching, let's go to the cave base." Yi Bin reminded Zuo Lei.
"Let everyone get on the chariot quickly." After Zuo Lei finished speaking, he dragged Tao Yuan to his own mecha.
After the chariot came out, everyone got into the car as quickly as possible. The soldiers of the special operations team grabbed the chariot with their mechas, and then took off to take them to the cave base to hide.
Sitting in a chariot and being carried by mechas to fly in the air is definitely not as stable and comfortable as sitting in a spaceship, but at such an urgent moment, they can't care about comfort, no matter how uncomfortable they are, they can only endure it.
Only Tao Yuan sat in the cockpit of Zorei's mecha, curiously looking at this space full of various high-end controllers and screens of various sizes. This is the first time he has entered the cockpit of the mecha in a real sense, so he will inevitably feel curious.
Tao Yuan got up and walked to Zuo Lei's seat. From the screen in front, he could see the situation outside at 360 degrees, and the closely arranged flashing controls made Tao Yuan feel very happy. freshness.
Zuo Lei pulled Tao Yuan to sit on his lap, hugged him and asked, "While waiting in the underground base, did you feel very scared?"
"I know you will definitely come, so I'm not afraid, it's just that the waiting time feels very long." Tao Yuan looked at him and said.
Zuo Lei held his face and kissed his mouth hard, not only to comfort him, but also to comfort his own heart. Zuo Lei told himself in his heart that this person is in his arms now, he is unscathed, and no one can hurt him.
Tao Yuan responded to his kiss, and when he kissed deeper and deeper, she clung to his shoulder and groaned in protest.
The cave base is much larger than the underground base, and the underground can accommodate their mechas and accommodate more people.
After entering the cave base, those people felt dizzy, their stomachs churned, and their faces were very bad when they got off the chariot.
When they gathered in the open space, they saw the mecha that came in last. Compared with the other mechas, they looked more advanced and handsome, so they couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Zuo Lei parked the mecha in a squatting position on one knee. He walked out of the cockpit first, then reached out to take Tao Yuan out, then held Tao Yuan with one hand, and pulled the elevator with the other hand. After reaching the ground, Only then did he let go of Tao Yuan.
Seeing this scene, other people had complicated emotions, some were jealous, some were envious, some were envious, envious and hated. The cockpit of a mecha is a very sacred place for a mecha warrior, and it is psychologically difficult to accept that someone other than a mecha engineer enters it.
And Zuo Lei is the captain of the special operations team, and his mecha is naturally the best mecha in the entire fleet. Being able to go in and visit once is a dream that many people dream of, but it is impossible to realize. Now when they saw Tao Yuan coming down from the cockpit of Zuo Lei's mech, they were naturally envious and jealous.
"Big team," Yi Bin walked in front of Zuo Lei and reported, "Everything has been inspected, and no abnormalities were found."
Zuo Lei glanced at the art soldiers, and said to Yi Bin, "First activate the various defensive devices, send people to guard the posts, and then arrange a place for him to rest. It will take at least a few days for the Storm Stone to pass. Food and water are distributed in advance and distributed to everyone."
"Yes!" Yi Bin took the order to leave, and then went to command the former land combat soldiers who were dedicated to protecting the art soldiers, and let them go to various posts.
Here, Zuo Lei is the supreme commander, and everyone must obey his orders.
Under the leadership of the soldiers, the art soldiers were going to rest in the rest area. Although Dean was neither an art soldier nor a member of the Lion Fleet, in this case, he was also regarded as a member of the art soldiers. It is the same arrangement.
Dean glanced back at Zorai's mech. He had a long-standing wish, that is, to sit in the cabin of Zorai's mech and experience the feeling of flying in a mech. Now this wish may never come true in my lifetime.
Elman looked at his lonely expression, then looked back at the back of Tao Yuan who was being led away by Zuo Lei, and felt heartbroken for his brother. He felt that he didn't regret what he had done before, but now, he felt that he was starting to regret it. He felt that if he hadn't snatched Corning away from Luoxi, then Luoxi and Corning would not have broken up, and his brother and Zoley might have a chance to get back together.
They had just arrived at the planet in less than half an hour from the cave base.
