Chapter 266 Concerns from all parties

Du Zifeng didn't care at first. After all, this situation had happened before. Lian Yi didn't use the mecha every day. In the past week, the other party would ask about the secondary assembly of the mecha every day, saying that in order to save resources, they would piece together the scrapped mechas and use them after secondary assembly.

Therefore, the two of them would basically contact each other every day, and he was also quite busy. Occasionally, when the video call was not connected, he would receive a text message from Lian Yi, but this time there was no news for three consecutive days.

He called Lian Yi's video, but the other party didn't answer. The message he sent seemed to have fallen on deaf ears. This made Du Zifeng frown. He was about to call the team leader, Mr. Ouyang, when Fanny said cheerfully:

"Master, Master Lianyi sent a message!"

"Open it and let me see."

"yes!"

After reading the message, Du Zifeng stood up and immediately ordered:

"Fanny, have the hovercraft pick me up at the entrance of the institute. Please ask for leave for me. I'm going home now."

"Yes, Master!"

There was seriousness in Fanny's voice.

Five minutes later, Du Zifeng hurriedly got on the hovercraft. The hovercraft rushed out almost without any pause and drove to General Du's mansion at the fastest speed.

"Master, if the news from Master Lian Yi is true, they are now trapped on the ZJWL satellite planet. There are only 3,000 soldiers stationed on this planet, and one-third of them are non-combatants. The number of pirates is three times theirs. They can only defend and cannot organize an effective counterattack.

According to the message sent back by the young master, he should have joined the breakout team and sent the message after leaving the encirclement of the star pirates. However, when Fanny called back, Ian did not reply to me. Fanny speculated that they were caught up by the star pirates again and the signal was intercepted. "

Fanny took into account all possible situations in the shortest possible time and made a rough guess based on the information she had.

"This is the worst-case scenario. If they are always being tracked and don't have enough supplies, they will eventually be caught up."

Du Zifeng frowned.

"Master, what should we do now?"

"Help me contact my brother!"

"Yes, Master!"

Three minutes later, Du Zixian's video call was connected:

"Brother, Lian Yi is in trouble! Have you received the news?"

"Got it! Did he send you a message too?"

Du Zixian asked.

"Yes, they are now surrounded by space pirates and the situation is urgent. He also mentioned his classmate Hill in a vague way. It seems that this little guy has an extraordinary identity!"

Du Zifeng asked immediately.

"Yes, that may be why they are besieged."

Du Zixian didn't say much, but Du Zifeng already understood, but now was not the time to ask about the other party's identity.

"What is the Empire going to do?"

"We have already contacted other satellite planets near ZJWL planet and asked them to support ZJWL planet, but the current situation is not optimistic."

Du Zixian did not hide the fact that he was his younger brother.

"What's the meaning?"

"The three satellite planets closest to ZJWL have not responded. I don't know what happened there."

After hearing this, Du Zifeng's heart sank. This was not just pessimistic, but very bad.

"Have you contacted other satellite planets?"

"We have made contact. The satellite planet that can communicate smoothly is ZDWL. It will take at least eight days for them to rush to ZJWL for support."

This is also what gives Du Zixian a headache.

"Will it be too late when their reinforcements arrive?"

Du Zifeng asked directly.

“Hopefully they can hold out until then.”

".When Lian Yi left this time, I equipped him with a fourth-generation mecha. Although it is a test mecha, its performance is the same as that of a formal mecha. As long as he is smart enough, he will definitely come back alive."

Du Zifeng hinted.

"I actually hope that Lianyi will do this, but according to the information he sent back, he is acting with the team that broke out to seek help. They have now left the ZJWL planet and their target should be the nearest planet. They are going to seek support."

"But the three nearby planets have lost contact. They will be walking into a trap if they go there!"

"But Lianyi's communication was interrupted, so we can't pass the message over. Now the ZDWL planet has assembled spacecraft and set out to provide support. I hope we can meet them halfway."

“This probability.”

Du Zifeng is not optimistic.

"Zifeng, Wu Yishan's video message came in. Go back and comfort your father and mother first. I will send you a message as soon as I have any news."

Du Zixian immediately hung up the video call. He still had to deal with Wu Yishan. Currently, only the Du family, the Presidential Palace and the First Military Academy knew about this matter. He didn't know where Wu Yishan got the information from.

Sure enough, as soon as the video call was connected, Wu Yishan asked with a stern look on his face:

"Where is Lian Yi now? Why can't I contact him?"

"Lianyi went to participate in the school's mecha practice activities with his classmates. As for his specific whereabouts, you can ask the college he attends. It has been a long time since you couldn't contact Lianyi. Why did you only remember to ask me today? Isn't it because Lianyi put you on the list of people he doesn't want to contact?"

Du Zixian's words were very sharp. He was too lazy to argue with Wu Yishan. He was now mobilizing manpower and needed to break the situation as quickly as possible. He didn't have time to argue with Wu Yishan, so he hung up the video call cleanly after he finished speaking.

Wu Yishan was so angry that he fell backwards. This made him even more certain that something had happened to Lian Yi. After a moment of silence, he immediately called his confidants and arranged things one by one. This might be an opportunity to repair the relationship between father and son.

When Du Zifeng returned to the Du family, he went to see his father without disturbing his mother.

"Father, Lian Yi is in trouble, do you know?"

"I got the message, and so did you."

"Well, my eldest brother is handling it. He asked me to come back and take charge. Mother..."

"She doesn't know. Don't tell her yet. I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it. Yi Yi is gone. If even her last bloodline is gone, your mother will blame herself even more."

General Du sighed.

"Father, this happened unexpectedly, but we have to believe in Lian Yi. He can save himself."

Lian Yi, who was being cared about by the Du family, had already persuaded Sean to change the direction of the spacecraft and head towards the planet SFWL. This time they took a detour and with the help of Lianyi's spiritual sense to lead the way, it took them three days to reach the outskirts of the planet.

Sean was very cautious. He sent out an unmanned reconnaissance mecha to investigate the situation outside.

An hour later, the reconnaissance mecha sent back the message:

"Captain, according to the mecha's detection, the SFWL planet is strengthening its alert and has opened the defense shield. If we don't reveal our identities, it will be difficult to get in."

"Who are they watching out for? Us? How did they know we were coming?"

Sean's deputy captain asked in confusion.

"It's not us, it must be the pirates!"

Lianyi frowned tightly. This group of pirates were really full of tricks. Even if they broke through, the process of requesting support would not be smooth.
