Chapter 267 Disappointment with the Federation
The atmosphere in the car was stagnant.
Lian Yi put on his headphones again and made follow-up deployments.
Lin Fancheng quietly wiped his hands that were gripping the steering wheel onto his pants.
Just now, he was almost there. If the police had questioned him for a while longer, he was afraid that he would lose control of his foot and want to step on the acceleration.
Huo Chuan's face also turned pale. Liu Yue turned his head to look at him, breaking the silence, "Were you scared just now?"
"Who's scared? It's you who's scared, right?!" Huo Chuan suddenly felt like he was on fire and took the opportunity to vent his anger.
Mo Mo picked up a pistol from the ground and gripped it tightly. Just now, he was actually trembling in his heart, but he was just trying his best to endure it.
This is not the Federation, this is not a planet with rule of law.
This is actual combat, completely different from an exercise, and there is no chance to quit and start over.
There were only six of them in one car. Once they were caught in a standoff and under the enemy's full firepower coverage, they would be turned into cannon fodder in seconds.
Death can happen at any time.
When I was in school, I imagined galloping across the battlefield fearlessly. But when I actually got there, I realized I was actually terrified. Fear comes from the unknown. What's scary isn't death, but the moment before death.
The off-road vehicle was driving on the dirt road. The long and short breathing in the car and the shaking of the car body made me feel uneasy.
"Don't worry, you are not short-lived, I am here for you."
Yun Mo broke the silence, raised his left hand, and twisted the yellow talisman paper to signal.
As she moved, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
The tension and anxiety disappeared, replaced by twitching on the faces of the four people.
Lian Yi secretly praised that as newcomers, these teenagers had really good psychological qualities.
As a newcomer, the girl was able to change the atmosphere with just one move, which was really great.
"Instructor Lian, do you want them? A lucky charm, a Vajra charm, an invisibility charm..." Yun Mo said as he took things out of his backpack.
Lian Yi glanced at the rearview mirror. She never did meaningless things.
Based on this understanding, Lian Yi somehow reached out his hand when several people seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"How many do you want?" Yun Mo asked.
"One of each."
Lian Yi sat in the passenger seat, pushed up his earphones with his right hand, and raised his left hand with the palm facing up.
I felt that there was a string of talisman papers falling one after another, each one was accompanied by a name, as if they were carefully strung together.
"Instructor Lian, they are all here. There are ten tickets in total, one thousand eight hundred star coins each. You can give me a package price for ten tickets, which is eighteen thousand star coins in total. Do you want to pay in cash or on credit?" Yun Mo was in a very good mood.
Lian Yi: ...
Huo Chuan couldn't help but cover his face. This money-grubbing look was really an eyesore.
"Boss Yun, aren't you offering a set meal?"
Mo Mo looked at Lian Yi's somewhat stiff back, shuddered, and quickly came over to smooth things over.
Liu Yueban has been impressed by these two guys with low emotional intelligence. He can hardly maintain his smiling expression all year round. What's the point of talking about a package at this point?
"It's the set meal price. It's ten items, each one is 1,800 yuan, a total of 18,000 yuan..."
As Yun Mo spoke, he pulled out the IOU he had prepared from his pocket. "Instructor Lian, there might be a problem with the signal here. Just sign this IOU."
Lian Yi stuffed the talisman into his trouser pocket and threw out a card, "Here."
"I like you like this!"
Yun Mo smiled happily and put the card into her backpack without asking how much was inside.
On the screen in front of Lian Yi, a map of the city ahead gradually appeared, like a scout opening a map, eroding and opening it bit by bit...
The complex and crisscrossing road network is almost entirely red.
Lian Yi heard a team member's report through his earphones, "Captain, the government forces and the tribal armed forces are engaged in a full-scale battle in the city."
"The entire city has been issued a red alert, and people from all star regions are evacuating."
"Captain, fighting has already started in the main city area, you should take a detour..." Youming's voice was a little urgent.
"There's no way around it," we've already entered the war zone.
"Where have you been?" Lian Yi asked.
"We've arrived at Jekoa. We'll go to Area C to pick you up..."
"good……"
The sound of gunfire could be heard in the distance, and flashes of fire could be seen in the air from time to time.
"Slow down, there's a checkpoint ahead! Crossroads! Checkpoint at the right turn!" Lian Yi tapped the screen and said calmly.
There is a tense battle going on outside, and there are still such intensive inspections inside. This itself is abnormal.
Yun Mo looked at Lian Yi again. It seemed that the chip was of great significance to some people.
"Wait a minute, there's someone on the side of the road," Mo Mo leaned on the window and saw someone waving from a distance.
"It's a Federal!"
Liu Yueban had sharp eyes and had already recognized the appearance that was obviously different from that of the Sana people.
The man was carrying a child on his back and kept waving at vehicles on the roadside, probably wanting to get a ride.
But no one stopped, everyone was in a hurry to evacuate to the rear, not to mention, it was obvious that this person was not a local.
"Take him with you," Lian Yi patted Lin Fancheng's arm.
Lin Fancheng didn't hesitate. He turned the car and drove over there.
When the car door opened, the man was stunned for a moment, then quickly choked up, "Thank you, thank you, my car broke down..."
"What's your name?" Lian Yi asked.
"Kang Shaoyan".
The man sat in the back seat, squeezed together with Yun Mo and the others. The child was probably too tired and was drowsy but not awake, so he held the child in his arms.
"ID," Lian Yi threw something over and asked him to scan it to verify his identity.
"drop……"
"drop……"
The man and the child aimed their smart computers at the device, and when the green prompt sounded, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Lian Yi glanced at his file and said nothing more.
"Where are you going?"
Liu Yueban moved forward so that only the tip of his buttocks was sitting on the chair, to make more room for others.
"I want to go to the airport. Can you take me there? It's getting chaotic here. The federation has notified us to leave through civilian channels." The man's voice was filled with panic.
"I've been here for years, and there's always been war here, but this time is really different... Some of my colleagues from Shariya have already left. They're protected by military aircraft."
"We thought the Federation would come too. We've been waiting for the Federation's aircraft carrier, but it never arrived..."
The man chattered on and on, telling what had happened today.
The people around him had already left through various channels. He was on his way to meet up with his friends when his vehicle broke down, which is why he has been delayed until now.
"Where are you going?" Kang Shaoyan asked.
"Jekya," Yunmo answered slowly.
"There... behind the government army, but farther away from the airport..." Kang Shaoyan continued to chatter.
"You're so young, are you here for tourism? I've paid my taxes honestly for so many years, but I never expected that at the critical moment, I would be abandoned by the federal government..."
"Abandon? Not really?" Liu Yueban disagreed.
