Chapter 1061: Dangerous Fog and New Life
The airships of both sides passed each other, and then quickly distanced themselves from each other amid the sound of propeller blades.
Many people on the Dashun side finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although the journey was dangerous, there was no accidental discharge of gunfire.
When Bian Zhijie and Wang Tongshan saw that the federal airship had no intention of turning around, they knew that the matter was over.
Only when the airships and ships on the sea gradually turned into small black dots did they release their weapons, feeling both relieved and regretful.
A war might have broken out just now, but they were not afraid. After all, they were fighters, and those who could break through to this level were not easy to deal with. There was a moment when they all wanted to rush up and fight.
Bian Zhijie said, "That's it. The medicine was wasted."
Wang Tongshan exhaled. "It's a good thing they didn't fight. Forget about the medicine. The visiting delegation gets a subsidy. Brother Bian, did you see that just now?"
"I saw it." Bian Zhijie showed envy, "So handsome!"
That external implant looks majestic and domineering, and he really wants one.
Wang Tongshan also said with some envy: "That should be distributed to fighters who have reached the level of Changshengguan."
Bian Zhijie couldn't help but ask, "Will every fighter in Changsheng Temple be issued one?"
Wang Tongshan shook his head and said, "Not everyone has this qualification. As far as I know, they also need to have made great contributions to the country, especially those who have eliminated infiltration from the enemy. At least that's the case in the military."
The two men came from different backgrounds. Bian Zhijie's parents had extensive connections in state-owned enterprises, while he came from a military family and was always well-informed about fighters in the army.
"I see..."
Bian Zhijie was a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered up. Given his age and talent, he might be able to achieve it in the future.
On the main ship in front, Chen Chuan was still standing on the open deck. He glanced at the big island in the distance and saw that there was no movement in the naval port. He knew that the incident was over.
As long as the opponent doesn't go crazy, there will be no accidents. Even if the opponent really dares to attack, he will fight back without hesitation.
They were a delegation officially sent by Dashun. Attacking the delegation was equivalent to attacking Dashun, and he would show no mercy. Even though the enemy had so many troops, it was just a matter of spiritual impact. Even if the enemy had support from the mainland, they would not be able to catch up.
Of course, in order to avoid escalation of the conflict, he would give the other party some face and would not destroy the entire base or affect the central city on the island.
Inside another large ship, Captain Xie felt a little more relaxed. He turned around, took out a handkerchief and handed it over, "Lao Lu, wipe it."
Lu Guangde was stunned. He took it, wiped the sweat from his head, and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Captain Xie."
He Yishen on the other side was fine. Apart from his slightly unsightly complexion, he was in good condition.
Captain Xie said, "Old He, do you remember that you were on the battlefield before?"
He Yishan was slightly startled. He said, "I didn't expect the regimental commander to know this. Actually, it wasn't really a war. I was a war correspondent for a while. I didn't hold a gun, I just took pictures and stuff."
"That's not easy."
Captain Xie said, "You two should go and rest for a while."
The two understood what he meant. Lu Guangde said, "Then let's go down and clean up first. If there's anything, just call us, Captain."
At this moment, the communications personnel sent a report, and the news came from Geiserfituzhou.
The news report informed them that the fleet at the base was conducting an exercise. Because of the signal shielding in advance, no external information was accepted. The diplomatic team happened to come at this time, so they mistook them for the military exercise.
This was due to a "messaging error" and they are deeply sorry.
He had a blank expression on his face and contacted Chen Chuan directly, asking, "Director Chen, did you see that?"
Chen Chuan replied, "I see. An explanation is better than no explanation. It shows that on the surface they still have some reservations and are not going to tear each other apart."
Captain Xie said cautiously, "Director Chen, this time we relied on your personal power to suppress them. But based on my past experience, this operation is somewhat unusual. It may not be the end yet. There may be more tests to come."
Chen Chuan responded, "Thank you, Captain. I will pay more attention to the team's defense. Our team is also very good. They just carried out the order very well."
Team leader Xie nodded. This made him feel relieved. As long as there were no problems within the team, he was confident that he could handle all external challenges.
He said, "Director Chen, I noticed that you submitted an application report to the rear. I have urged the rear to send the materials as soon as possible."
Chen Chuan said: "Thank you, Captain. Thank you very much."
"We are a team, and that's how it should be," said Team Leader Xie.
After ending the call, Chen Chuan thought for a while. He had looked through the logs before coming here. The first batch of diplomatic teams did not encounter such a situation when they came here. On the one hand, the Federation attached great importance to the first batch of delegations, and there were not only many military figures but also staff from the capital office.
On the other hand, there was an extremely powerful fighter in the first team, so the opponent did not dare to act rashly.
Of course, there may be another reason that cannot be ignored. The first delegation mainly dealt with the East Coast Party and discussed the general direction of national policy.
However, this group of them needs some people to stay behind to deal with the West Coast Party. They are mainly responsible for paying attention to internal issues of the Federation, safeguarding the interests of Dashun’s companies and people in the Federation, and investigating the spread of the cult organization. No matter how you look at it, they are here to cause trouble.
Coupled with the fact that the previous agreement may seriously squeeze the interests of the West Bank Party, it is no wonder that it has caused such a strong reaction.
As Captain Xie said, there should be follow-up to this matter.
At this time, he looked at it and saw that according to the current speed, it would take less than two days to reach the west coast of the Federation. If there were no accidents, he should be able to reach the first stop the day after tomorrow morning.
With a thought, he retracted the field and withdrew from the implant. Once outside, he communicated with his mind, saying, "Hongfu, from now on, try to record everything you see along the way."
Hongfu said, "Okay."
West coast of the Commonwealth, Serrano Cha Island.
There is a tribe of primitive people who have been forced to the geographical edge of the area, with a population of only a thousand people left.
At this moment, there were bursts of gunfire outside the tribal camp. Hunters wearing blood-red cloaks and riding modified horses were running back and forth around the camp, making strange whistling sounds and firing a few shots into the air from time to time.
These warhorses were covered in scaly exoskeletons, with extended tracheas on either side of their necks connected to poison sacs within their bodies. The mounted cavalrymen were all highly implanted, their large-caliber hunting rifles uniformly equipped with bone blades for close combat.
This is the Scarlet Hunter, a high-level bounty hunter funded by the federal government and some companies, responsible for hunting down the First People.
In the camp, some tribesmen holding rifles hid behind the earth walls and chevaux-de-frise, nervously watching the blood-red cavalry whizzing around the camp, and behind them stood a few fighting warriors holding cold weapons.
In the center of the tribe, the priest elder led all the tribesmen to kneel around an altar. There were at least a hundred cavalrymen outside, and there were also high-level fighters from the Federation. It was impossible for them to stop them.
Although they didn't know why those people didn't rush in, under the threat of their tribe's imminent destruction, they had to seek help from the ancient nature spirits.
Due to population decline and ethnic migration, the natural spirits that have been worshipped since the time of their ancestors now only respond to them occasionally, but this is the only protection they can expect.
Although a huge number of livestock and a small number of human lives are sacrificed each time, it is a sacrifice that must be made for the continuation of the population.
Outside the tribe, two believers in New Light religious robes rode on horseback, looking inside. One of them said, "It should be about time, right?"
Another person said patiently, "Don't worry, give them some more time."
Those members of the primitive tribe did not know that the natural spirits they believed in had long been secretly contaminated by the New Light Religion rituals. Just four kilometers away from them, the New Light Religion followers had already arranged a huge esoteric ritual.
A blazing bonfire was burning in the middle, and believers were constantly throwing ritual materials smeared with blood into it.
The New Light Religion ritualists covered their entire bodies with robes, leaving only their eyes and mouths exposed. They held torches and shouted loudly. The worshippers around them were also extremely crazy. Faintly, a crack with a flickering glow was flickering.
At this moment, in the camp of the First People, as the tribe worshipped, a strange mist began to emanate from the altar. The mist grew larger and larger, and its range became wider and wider. The members of the First People tribe fell down one by one without realizing it, and turned into dried corpses. Gradually, a figure mixed with blood appeared in it.
On the Dashun visiting team's side, after another day of sailing, the navigator issued a reminder before nightfall that if they maintained the current speed and altitude, they would reach the Linax Federation before eight o'clock tomorrow morning.
However, only half an hour later, a large area of thick fog was detected ahead.
This fog seems abnormal because it appeared suddenly. There is no skyline here, no space to use, and no contact with the nearest central city, so the specific coverage of this fog is unclear.
To avoid collisions, the entire fleet checked and exchanged coordinates, speeds, and barometric pressure gauges.
Then there were a series of loud noises, and the strong lights on the airship lit up. In the thick fog, they looked like big fish sailing in the deep sea with lanterns hanging on their heads.
In the federal delegation, Prabhakar looked at the fog ahead, slowly sat up, clasped his hands and said, "The torrent has arrived. There is no escape, no escape."
