Chapter 267 Successful Landing
Sean said with an unpleasant expression:
"You mean there was an ambush here by pirates?"
"Not sure, how about trying to contact the command center here first?"
Lianyi now has three guesses, but none of them is good news, so she didn't say much.
Sean nodded and tried to send out a distress signal and request a video connection, but the SFWL planet station was still disconnected. After half an hour, everyone's heart sank.
If the SFWL planet does not respond, they cannot force their way in and have to retreat to the next satellite planet, which will take at least three more days, or six days in total.
If everything goes well, including requesting support to rush to planet ZJWL, it will also take six days, which means a total of twelve days, which is the maximum time the garrison can hold out.
"No, we must enter the SFWL planet and investigate thoroughly no matter what."
Sean frowned and said that they couldn't waste any more time as everyone in the station was waiting for their news.
"Captain Sean, let me go!"
Lianyi volunteered.
"No, we've already taken a big risk by letting you follow us this time, and we can't let anything happen to you."
Sean disagreed, and neither did his teammates. There were at least three thousand soldiers stationed there. They were not the thirty or fifty miscellaneous pirates they had dealt with before. They were all regular soldiers, and their combat effectiveness was no worse than Sean and his team.
"Because I am a minor, the garrison's vigilance will be lowered. Once I figure out what is going on in the garrison, I can determine what we should do next."
Lianyi explained patiently.
"What if you don't understand the situation and are still detained? What if they want to kill you?"
Sean asked directly.
"If something really goes wrong here, I will try my best to save my life and wait for you to come and rescue me. Give me one night. If I don't get any news out, it means something has gone wrong on SFWL planet. You should quickly go to the next satellite planet for help. It's still in time. Otherwise, ZJWL planet will really be lost."
Sean knew Hongtu was not exaggerating, but he still felt aggrieved. They felt they were too inferior to let an underage child rush to the front.
"Captain Sean, these things will be more effective if children do them. You are going to fight on the battlefield, and those pirates are waiting for you to destroy them. Don't worry about these things."
Lianyi saw through Sean's thoughts and immediately comforted him.
"Maybe it's safer for me to stay on the SFWL planet."
In the end, Sean had to compromise and used the escape pod in the spacecraft to send Ripple to the SFWL satellite planet, then hid himself and waited quietly.
The moment the silver escape pod that Ripple was riding in fell, the garrison on the planet SFWL discovered it. Immediately, a team of people drove a mecha out of the defense shield and brought the escape pod back to the base.
When she was found by these mecha warriors, Lianyi's spiritual sense probed out of the escape pod and discovered that those operating the mechas were definitely regular soldiers. They just didn't know what the situation was like inside the base, so she pretended to be unconscious and did not wake up.
When she entered the base through the protective shield, her spiritual consciousness turned into thousands of fine threads, exploring the entire base. The situation inside the base was in full view. The entire base entered a state of combat readiness and defense, but she didn't know who they were defending against.
With a "click", his escape pod was opened from the outside. She quickly withdrew her consciousness, then slowly opened her eyes, looked at the alert people around her, sat up, and then stepped out of the escape pod.
The soldiers around looked at the handsome young man in front of them. He had a slender and strong figure, neat brown-red hair, and a pair of cold and clear eyes. After looking around, they slowly spoke:
"I need to see the major general at your station. I have urgent information to share with you."
The two soldiers looked at each other before speaking:
"Who are you? If you want to see our major general, you should also tell us your name!"
"I was negligent. My last name is Du Hongtu, and Du Zixian is my uncle."
Now a look of surprise flashed across the faces of the two young soldiers. Everyone knew Du Zixian's name; he was the commander of the Third Army.
"Please wait a moment. I will report it right away."
"Thank you! If your major general doesn't believe me, just tell him that my name before I changed it was Wu Lianyi, and Wu Yishan is my biological father."
Lianyi added a sentence just to be on the safe side.
Things that are well known on Blue Star may not be the case here.
The two soldiers were a little confused. They didn't know whether the young boy's surname was Du or Wu, but they still sent a message to their superior officer.
Half an hour later, a military commander personally picked up Lianyi and took him to the command center of the base, where he was asked to wait in a small reception room.
This wait lasted another half an hour. Just as Lianyi frowned, the door of the small living room opened and a tall young man with blond hair and blue eyes walked in. He glanced at Lianyi and then spoke:
"I'm Quinn, the station's chief. What is your purpose in entering the SFWL planet in an escape pod?"
"Major General Quinn, I escaped from the planet ZJWL and came to you for help. We sent a distress signal, but you did not respond. The video call request we sent was also rejected by you.
As a last resort, I, as the youngest, was sent to the base in an escape capsule."
Quinn was half-believing and half-doubting, but still asked with a cold face:
"How do you prove your identity?"
"My intelligent brain can prove my identity."
The smart brain is not only a personal terminal, but also an identity certificate that you have since birth.
"Sorry, our external communications have been paralyzed, so we cannot verify your identity through the intelligent brain network."
Lian Yi frowned after hearing this, and then asked uncertainly:
"You also received a distress message before. After you rescued the people, the other party destroyed your external communication network and attacked the interior of the base?"
"How do you know?"
Quinn asked, his face darkening.
"Because this is the pirates' goal. They want us to not be able to find support in a short period of time. The entire ZJWL satellite planet will be breached, and all the soldiers stationed there will be buried with them. My classmates will also become hostages in the hands of the pirates, and the president's youngest son is among them."
Lian Yi said calmly.
Quinn's pupils shrank after hearing this. The amount of information contained here was too much. Even though he suspected the identity of the young boy, he was considering arranging someone to investigate the situation.
"I hope Major General Quinn can send mecha soldiers to support us. Major General Nice is working very hard to support us. They can only hold out for twelve days at most. It took us five days to break out and find here."
After listening to this, Quinn hesitated for a moment and asked:
"Why don't you ask for help from the nearest QSWL planet, but choose our base instead?"
"Because there is an ambush of space pirates there. They think that if we succeed in breaking through, they will definitely ask for help from the QSWL planet. We have limited manpower, so we can only avoid the trap and come here to ask for help. But I didn't expect that they have thought it through and have already laid an ambush here in advance."
