"For the past ten thousand years, our Beichen Empire has only had four dukes, thirty marquises, and sixty earls."
"Let's not talk about the four great dukes. Their titles are hereditary and will not be stripped under any circumstances."
"Besides that, there are the marquis and the earl."
"Among marquises and earls, there are also priorities."
"The four marquises and the four earls are only slightly lower in status than the four dukes."
This was a hint to Xia Chujian not to underestimate the Qiu family.
Xia Chujian nodded: "So it's still a lot worse than the four great dukes, but that's okay."
Qiu Zijun: “…”
His eyes were blank.
What do you mean it's okay?
Of course Xia Chujian wouldn't explain.
She simply said, "The nobility is the nobility, and the military is the military. If anything goes wrong in my military mission, your family probably won't be able to save me."
"Please forgive me, Lieutenant Qiu."
"Of course, if Second Lieutenant Qiu can guarantee that no matter what happens during my military mission this time, Earl Qiu will cover it for me, then I might as well give Second Lieutenant Qiu a favor."
After saying this, Qiu Zijun frowned, and even Ye Shijie looked at Xia Chujian with new respect.
It's only been a month since we last met, Xia Chujian, this killer who doesn't complain when he can get his hands dirty, has become so eloquent...
The key is that it is particularly heartbreaking and hits the nail on the head. It depends on whether you live or die.
Of course, Qiu Zijun couldn't make such a guarantee.
Not to mention that the Qiu family is only an earl, even if the four dukes were here, they would not be able to guarantee that they would protect Xia Chujian.
The military's military mission went wrong, and even the emperor's words might not be effective.
Qiu Zijun shook his head regretfully and said sincerely, "Captain, please forgive me. I can't promise this on behalf of my father."
Xia Chujian smiled and said, "Isn't that the end? So you don't have to remember my favor, it's useless anyway... Hahahaha... Then we're leaving, see you again if we're lucky."
She stretched out the mecha's mechanical arm, shook it, and turned away gracefully.
The three-meter-tall conventional mecha shines with a cold, hard black iron color under the moonlight, which makes people feel intimidated.
…
Ten minutes later, Ye Shijie and Qiu Zijun watched the interstellar airship parked not far from them start its engine, quickly take off, instantly speed up, and roar into the distance.
Qiu Zijun said, "They are flying south. Are they heading for the equator?"
Ye Shijie said: "Probably, they are coming with more than one team this time, they should gather together."
He had not participated in any large-scale military operations, but had only carried out many missions with the Night Hunter team.
We have also cooperated with other teams, but the overall size did not exceed 500 people.
Qiu Zijun watched for a while, then suddenly said, "How about we follow and see?"
"If we can find the other team that came with her, they won't be the only ones with a space cruiser..."
Ye Shijie said: "Second Lieutenant Qiu, didn't the Qiu family ask us to stay here for another two weeks and then come to pick you up?"
Qiu Zijun frowned and said, "But our mission has been completed. Can't we leave early? We really can't stay in this place for another day."
Ye Shijie looked at the young man lying motionless on the chair and said nothing more.
He didn't know why Qiu Zijun was so sure that this was her mission, but since she insisted so much, she must have the means to prove it.
His mission was only to ensure Qiu Zijun's personal safety while completing the mission.
As for Qiu Zijun's mission, the Qiu family told him not to worry about it.
He also won't add unnecessary details.
Ye Shijie said: "They have more people than us. Even if they agree to let us go on their airship, I won't go."
"Second Lieutenant Qiu should think about this carefully."
Qiu Zijun tilted her head and thought for a long time before reluctantly nodding and saying, "You're right, I was indeed too reckless."
"Since we're already so familiar with this female captain, let's just make her our guest!"
"Let's follow them. If you need help, we have plenty of equipment here."
There is a small arsenal in their aircraft.
There are fully automatic submachine guns, sniper rifles, assault rifles, two fully automatic intelligent machine guns, two Tianfa 0937 electromagnetic cannons, and nearly one million bullets in stock.
Ye Shijie thought of Xia Chujian's fear of insufficient firepower, his habit of holding the gun until the magazine was empty. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Is it too late to catch up now?"
Qiu Zijun was very happy to see Ye Shijie agreed, and said, "It should be no problem."
"This aircraft's radar is actually very powerful. I'll search for the power magnetic field signal of that starship and find out where they went."
As Qiu Zijun spoke, he turned on the modified radar system on the aircraft.
This radar system is indeed very powerful. It soon captured the dynamic magnetic field signal left in the local area by the interstellar spaceship that had just left.
"Let's go." Qiu Zijun sat in the driver's seat and followed according to the tracked dynamic magnetic field signal.
…
At this time, Xia Chujian was telling Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, Sun Jiahao and Li Dali about the place she found.
"The Wanshou Flying Fish is in an ice chamber on the bottom of the Antarctic sea on this planet. It was previously raised by the Haidagons and is now our trophy."
Mao Yonggui asked curiously, "...What is Haidagon?"
Xia Chujian paused and said, "Haidagon is a creature that lives on the seabed of this planet."
"Its head looks like a seahorse, but up close it looks like a toad. It's primarily ugly."
