Chapter 715 Rescue

At this time, on the edge of the battlefield, hidden in the cab of the pseudo V-generation pure mechanical mech Shadow Shadow.

Arles watched the Blue Whale's self-destruction indifferently. From the moment it was attacked, the fate of the Blue Whale was doomed.

His eyes were always on Su Mo, after watching his battle with the fake V-generation mech Bonebiter. A smile appeared on his face, and he verified his conjecture.

"Golori, now, compared to five years ago, do you think Su Mo is stronger or weaker?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Gololi replied firmly, "It's stronger."

"Hey~ It's a pity that he is heavily polluted by negative energy, his body can't bear it, and he can't fight for a long time."

"Yes, unfortunately."

"Okay, the matter here is over, let's go! The front line is still waiting for us."

Arles gave the order calmly.

In fact, Arles chose to take the Blue Whale to the front line, the big reason was to see Su Mo. Now that the goal has been achieved, there is nothing to stop.

"yes!"

Gololi controlled the mecha and left quietly.

At this moment, Su Mo took a few deep breaths, and controlled the Shadow of Lightning to speed up his escape.

Soon he caught up with the fleeing frigate.

At this time, the counterfeit owner Devourer said to Su Mo in a low voice: "Concealed magnetic mine ahead!"

In the distant starry sky in Su Mo's eyes, red dots appeared one by one.

So he accelerated and rushed to the front of the frigate, Lin Xiaoyu also followed after seeing this.

Su Mo controlled the Lightning Shadow to accumulate the Lightning Cannon, and swept across along the way, sweeping away the magnetic mines that could threaten the escort ships.

Lin Xiaoyu immediately reacted, controlled the mecha to rush forward, and helped clean up.

They broke through all the way forward.

However, the ships of the Imperial Army did not intend to let them go. Several battleships locked on to the frigate and tried to catch up.

At the third space base site and the fourth space base site of Star Rail.

After the interstellar ships have assembled.

He was anxiously heading towards the accident site of the Blue Whale.

The commander's roar kept ringing throughout the communication channel.

"Hurry up!"

In the Earth and Star Federation, Long Ming led Tang Qin and the others towards the special meeting room with very ugly faces.

"Has the news been confirmed?"

"It has been confirmed that the signal of the Blue Whale has been completely interrupted. According to the information transmitted by some surviving personnel from the Star Ring Forum. It can be confirmed that the Blue Whale has self-destructed, and all members have basically died."

Tang Qin quickly replied

"What about the ships at the nearby space base?"

"They are all going to the incident area non-stop, preparing for combat and search and rescue missions. Under normal circumstances, the imperial army should choose to evacuate and will not fight us again if they do not get any benefits. So the fleet that is rushing to will The main task is search and rescue."

"Let them be sure to rescue to the greatest extent possible."

Long Ming said hoarsely.

"clear!"

Tang Qin nodded in response.

Soon Long Ming and the others walked to the door of the special conference room, and the guarding soldiers respectfully opened the door.

Long Ming walked in alone, while Tang Qin and the others waited outside without following.

Entering the special conference room, a circular conference table greets the eyes, and five chairs are placed on the entire conference table.

Long Ming went straight to the chair in the middle and sat down.

At this time, the holographic simulation imaging system automatically unfolded, and figures appeared in various positions.

On the far left is Memikas, the lord of Yanas, wearing a silver high-necked corset with proud eyes and a crown on his head.

The second figure was an old man wearing a loose robe, his old face was tense, and his eyes were full of anger. He was the president of the Gauga Republic, Rufat, who was attacked this time.

The first figure on the right is a woman in a blue dress, with long blue hair like a waterfall, and her skin can be broken by blowing bullets. She is Amy, the wise man of Heike Free Country. lo.

The figure on the far right is a middle-aged man wearing V-generation colonial armor with a calm expression and a noble temperament. He is Pope Maodo of the Free State of Aramac.

At this time, everyone in the conference room looked very unhappy. They called an emergency joint meeting this time because of the attack on the Blue Whale.

Long Ming said in a deep voice: "Everyone must have gotten the news that the Blue Whale has fallen."

"I don't understand why something happened to such an advanced Blue Whale. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be!"

Emily said puzzledly.

"This matter is indeed beyond all of our expectations. Everyone knows how powerful the Blue Whale is. Its super-light flight mode, even a Star Destroyer may not be able to intercept it. History has come There were no problems with so many transportations, but I didn’t expect to stumble this time. There must be a series of problems such as internal cooperation, dereliction of duty, and leakage of secrets. Although the Blue Whale is taking our own route, but the route is so big, How they precisely lock it is more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack."

Long Ming said in a deep voice.

"Needless to say so much, the guys from the Imperial Army are blatantly provoking war. This is an act of provocation!"

The president of the Gauja Republic, Rufat, roared angrily.

"That's right, usually the most conflicts are small fights, but this time it's our lifeblood. Since they dare to do this, then we have nothing to say."

Maoduo was also angry, the Blue Whale was attacked, and he lost the most supplies.

"calm down."

Long Ming comforted him.

"How can you be calm? Our ship was bombed, everyone's supplies sank, and the front-line supplies have gone wrong. If we don't fight with them, they really think we are made of mud."

Lufat replied angrily.

"You can't fight, you can't fight if the name is not right."

Long Ming vetoed it again.

Amy Luo also expressed his position very angrily: "President Longming, what you said is wrong. Why is the name not right? This is obviously done by the other party. This kind of thing can't be covered up by pretending to be an interstellar pirate. of."

"I think they are not covering up, but rubbing our IQ on the ground. Which interstellar pirates have level 5 ships and so many fourth-generation mechs? Which interstellar pirates dare to attack us? And they are still On our course."

Memikas said with a lot of resentment.

"Then have you ever thought about why they pretend to be interstellar pirates?"

Long Ming asked in a deep voice.

For a while, everyone was at a loss for words.

"Although we know that they did it, we don't have any solid evidence, and the war is unknown. The morale will be good at the beginning of the war, but it will be weak in the later stage. On the other hand, the morale of the other side will definitely be high. You must know that the Imperial Army itself is stronger than ours. They are brave and good at fighting, and they have one more member state than us. Do you think they have a chance of winning? I am afraid that you have forgotten how the participants of the previous Sky Cup were destroyed. How many of them died because of such things? On the other hand, there is one more thing, each of us now owes a huge loan of more than 100 billion star coins to the city of the star ring, and it is time to repay the loan and interest at the end of the year. Now that we are at war with the imperial army, we will not be able to go to the star ring city by then City of money, are you planning to let City of Star Ring deal with us?"

Long Ming's eyes swept over the people present.

"Then what should we do? Just swallow this breath? Our frontline troops will soon run out of supplies."

Ruft asked gritted his teeth.

"How could we let it go like this? This incident is blatantly trampling on our bottom line, but it's just that we can't start a full-scale war. But since they like to play tricks, we also play with them."

A cold light flashed in Long Ming's eyes and said.

"How to do it?"

Everyone present asked.

"The informants I buried in the major empires gave back an important news. The supply of the imperial army to the front line has not yet departed. Since they dare to do the first day of the new year, we dare to do the fifteenth. We also sent a large number of ships to pretend to be interstellar pirates , as long as their transport ships are out of the range of the Star Ring City, they will launch an attack on it. It is best if they can grab it, and kill them if they can’t. Our frontline soldiers are hungry, and they must also starve. At the end of the year, we will If they don’t pay the money, they don’t want to pay it back, and if they don’t want to live a good life, then don’t live it!”

Long Ming said fiercely.

"That's right, let the imperial army know how powerful we are, our people didn't die in vain."

Rufert said almost in a growl.

"I agree!"

"I agree too!"

Everyone at the scene expressed their opinions one after another.

——

Three days later, in the command room of the frigate, Qian Chengxue and others gathered to discuss the current situation.

Among them, Su Mo has been driving the Thunder Shadow to escort the frigate, but he has been using the holographic projection of the mech to participate in the discussion.

Ziqing began to briefly report on the current situation.

"Our current situation is not optimistic. Most of the supplies we originally carried were placed on the transport ship. The supplies on the frigate are very limited. We squeezed in so many people. It may not take long before the survival supplies will be in a hurry. .”

"Then how far are we from the third site?"

Qian Chengxue asked.

"At the beginning, the Blue Whale left the third station and flew at super-light speed for about seven days. Our frigate didn't even fly at sub-light speed. If it was only on its own, it would have to fly for at least several months or half a year. And the worst point, because we didn’t dare to escape to the main channel in order to avoid the pursuit of the imperial ships, now we have deviated from the main channel for a long distance, and it will take longer to actually sail back.”

Zi Qing made some calculations and said worriedly.

After hearing this, Su Mo said with a headache, "It's been too long, if this is the case, we would have starved to death."

"Then we can only count on calling for help and rescue, but this is also a big problem. Our frigate has limited communication capabilities, and there is no way to directly contact the checkpoint site. We can only try our luck along the way and keep sending distress signals without stopping the radar. Let's see if we can hit the rescue fleet. But even if we do, it's still a question of whether the other party will give priority to rescue us."

Zi Qing said somewhat not optimistically.

At this time, Qian Chengxue raised her head, and said calmly, "Zi Qing, you can control the ship to move forward normally, search for rescue ships along the way, and I will figure out the rest."

"good."

Zi Qing didn't say much, so far this is the only way.

"Everyone has been trying to endure as much as possible recently, with a minimum intake of food and water. I believe we will be able to carry it through."

Qian Chengxue said to everyone.

"Sister Xue, we believe in you."

Although Sun Li and the others were a little depressed, they cheered up one by one.

"Okay, this is the end of the meeting, everyone go to rest."

Qian Chengxue said, now basically everyone should lie down and rest as much as possible when they are free, so as to minimize consumption.

"good."

So many sisters left one after another.

At this moment, Qian Chengxue turned her head and said to Su Mo, "Su Mo's safety is up to you."

"Small meaning, I will do a good job in this aspect, so you don't have to worry about it."

Su Mo pretended to be relaxed and replied.

"Well, okay, then I'll take care of the injured sister."

Qian Chengxue nodded and left.

In the cockpit of the Lightning Shadow mecha, Su Mo cut off the communication and stretched. At this time, a prompt popped up on the operation interface in front of him.

"Warning, the remaining 20% ​​of Thunder Shadow's nuclear fuel rods are about to fall below the warning line, please pay attention in time!"

Seeing this message, Su Mo sat up abruptly, looking at the prompt in disbelief.

"Isn't it? Running out of fuel so soon?"

"What's so strange."

The counterfeit owner, the Devourer, is not surprising at all, and everything seems to be expected.

"This is too rubbish, why not be as strong as the Gluttonous Mecha?"

Su Mo couldn't help complaining.

"Of course it's not as good as Gluttony. At least the Gluttony Mecha can barely catch the eye. Although these two mechas are both Generation IV mechas, they are not of the same level at all. The brand new Gluttony Mecha is sold in Star Ring City. The price can reach at least 500 million star coins. This is why, when they compensated you for your gluttonous mecha, I felt that they were begging for food."

The Forged Owner Devourer spoke.

Su Mo coughed and said, "This matter is not what you think. Do you know what it means to be confused? You only consider whether it is rationally correct, but you have not considered the sophistication of the world. The Federation will never withhold money from me. Compensation, you have to think about the war compensation five years ago, the chairman of Longming Council will not be able to pay in full until the compensation is paid. From this, it can be imagined that the federal finances are not as good as they appear on the surface."

Su Mo just paused for a moment, and then said: "One more thing, didn't Chairman Long Ming give me a huge sum of money, which has already far surpassed the gluttonous mecha. And anyway, I used to be in the GT department Yes, I can't make things difficult for my department, some things are almost fine."

In fact, Su Mo guessed right. The Federation's economy is even tighter than imagined, and every sum of money is planned.

No extra money at all!

What's worse is that the Federation has also borrowed a large amount of Star Coins from the City of Star Rings, and has to pay high interest every year.

Of course, you can also choose not to pay back, but no one dares not to pay back the money from the City of Star Rings these days.

After listening to the fake owner, Devourer, he just said in a low voice: "Then what are you going to do next?"

"What can I do, only 20% of the energy is left, of course it is returning."

Su Mo controlled the Shadow of Lightning to fly towards the frigate. Although the purchase of Shadow of Lightning came with a set of nuclear fuel rods, that set was on the transport ship.

Of course, I didn't think about replacing it before, but this time it was really dead.

On the frigate, Qian Chengxue took out her mobile phone and logged into the forum of Star Ring City. After some hesitation, she sent a message to an anonymous person.

"Father, I'm Qianchengxue. I'm escaping from the Blue Whale in a frigate. Now I'm deviated from the main channel starry sky coordinates (21121, 1252, 1423) and the supplies on the ship are seriously insufficient."

Not long after the message was sent.

A message popped up immediately.

"How is your situation now? Is the crisis resolved? If you can, find a place to hide, and I will find a way to coordinate the rescue."

"I have nothing to do here, and I have escaped the pursuit of the imperial army. It was when we were escaping that we broke up with Lin Hai and the others. Is there anything wrong with him?"

"He's fine there, you just need to pay attention to your own safety, and we'll talk about the rest when you come back."

Lin Yaotian immediately gave a recovery.

"Okay, I see."

Qian Chengxue breathed a sigh of relief.

Fifteen days later, the frigate docked on a barren planet.

Su Mo sat on the floor of the command room, leaning against the metal wall.

Sun Li and the others were also half-reclining weakly, they were so hungry that they didn't even want to say anything.

They save food as much as possible and distribute the food to take care of those injured sisters.

After all, they can bear it, but those injured sisters can't.

"Su Mo, do you think there will be only bones left when we are found?"

Zhao Han joked with Su Mo.

"Theoretically not, at most the corpses stink"

Su Mo replied with a wry smile.

"Then when I die, you'd better throw me into space, it stinks so shameful."

Zhao Han couldn't help but said.

"It's a pity to lose it. Why don't we lose money and cook you?"

Sun Li squeezed out a weak smile and joked to Zhao Han.

"Sister Sun Li, you are too much, you can say that."

Zhao Han replied angrily.

"Okay, don't make a fuss, bear with it if you have nothing to do, maybe rescue will come soon."

Su Mo quickly relieved.

"After I am saved this time, I will never lose weight again. I must eat enough."

Zhao Han replied with a weak breath.

"It's okay, we'll have a good meal when we get back."

Su Mo immediately got up and walked outside.

He saw Qian Chengxue patrolling each of the sisters, asking about their status one by one.

"Go and rest for a while, and I will help you patrol."

Su Mo said with some distress.

"It's okay. After all, I have also been injected with advanced genetic medicine. Even if I don't eat at all for ten days, I will be fine. Not to mention that I still eat some nutrition bars. The real suffering is them."

Qian Chengxue shook her head, these sisters have followed her since she was a child, she can't let something happen to them.

Su Mo also sighed slightly, if he was asked to fight, he would not be afraid at all.

But let him conjure something to eat, I guess there is no way to kill him.

Where can I find it in this vast sea of ​​stars?

The most important thing is that there is not much fuel left in Thunder Shadow, and it is difficult to go out to try his luck.

If the boats on the vast sea have no food, maybe they can still catch fish in the sea. If there is no food and supplies in the star sea, you can't attack those mutated monsters, right?

Therefore, many advanced ships have built-in ecological cycle systems in order to avoid this situation.

But Su Mo quickly adjusted his mentality.

"I'm here to help."

"Um."

Qian Chengxue nodded slightly.

A few days later, the last remaining food on the frigate was completely consumed.

Su Mo, Qian Chengxue and others all gathered in the command room.

With pale lips, Sun Li said to Qian Chengxue: "Sister Xue, what should I do now? I really don't have any food at all. We can last for a while, and those injured sisters might really last." No more."

Qian Chengxue also didn't know what to do.

Lin Yaotian had already set out to help them coordinate the rescue, logically speaking the rescue should have arrived long ago.

But there is no trace of it yet, and it is likely that there are too many people asking for help.

Seeing that Qian Chengxue didn't speak, everyone lowered their heads one after another, their morale getting lower and lower.

Su Mo was also scratching his head, not knowing what to say, since he had nothing to eat, everything he said was empty talk.

At this moment, there was a crackling sound from the ship's public communication channel.

Then there was an intermittent sound.

"This is the Rescuer-026 ship, may I be able to receive the signal!"

Hearing this voice, Sun Li and the others got up in great surprise, and Zi Qing immediately walked to the communicator and replied.

"This is the frigate No. C-2541 with federal registration number. We are the escort personnel of the Chenxi Group. The Blue Whale escaped here after being attacked, and we are now requesting rescue."

"Understood, the message has been received, please wait patiently, we are quickly approaching you!"

After hearing the reply, Qian Chengxue finally let go of her hanging heart.

Su Mo also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the rescue spaceship finally arrived.

——

More than a month later, a frigate landed at the Imperial Capital Interplanetary Airport.

Su Mo, Qian Chengxue and others got off the ship.

Tang Yao and many other sisters immediately came up to meet her. She said with red eyes, "Sister Xue, you are finally back. We are all worried to death."

"Okay, there's nothing to worry about, we're not coming back."

Qian Chengxue stretched out her hand to hug Tang Yao.

"Well, when we heard about the accident on the Blue Whale, we were almost scared to death."

Tang Yao quickly nodded and replied.

"I know, I made you worry."

"Sister Xue, something happened to the Blue Whale, what about our goods and orders?"

"We'll talk about this later, let's go back to the company first."

Qian Chengxue said to Tang Yao.

"Okay, the car is ready."

"let's go."

A moment later, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue got into Tang Yao's flying car.

Tang Yao took off in the flying car and left according to the designated navigation route.

Just after driving out of the interstellar airport, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue were also slightly taken aback looking at the scene outside the window.

On the road, there were residents holding red flags everywhere, angrily accusing the Imperial Army.

"Villain, butcher!"

"The source of all evil, the barbaric Imperial Army."

"eye for eye."

"This is?"

Su Mo asked Tang Yao in a little surprise.

"The incident of the Blue Whale has spread throughout the Federation. Although the Imperial Army deliberately disguised themselves as interstellar pirates. But no one is a fool. Everyone was completely ignited by their despicable behavior. Recently This kind of protest has been going on for a long time."

Tang Yao probably talked about the matter.

"What's the reaction from the Imperial Army now?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"How can we react? Not long ago, the five major allied countries issued the most severe questioning in history to the Imperial Army. But what's the use? The attitude of the Imperial Army is very arrogant, and its spokesperson took the opportunity to ridicule us, saying that we are too Garbage, it will be intercepted by interstellar pirates, and it will be beaten up! You haven't seen that press conference, otherwise your lungs would be blown up."

The more Tang Yao talked, the more angry he became, it was unbearable.
