After the game, everyone originally planned to go out to celebrate, but they were followed by many reporters on the way, which was too troublesome, so they decided to go home first and order takeout for convenience.
However, when Hall used his biometric information to open the door of his home, he found that Owen was talking to his mother Elaine, and both of them looked very wrong.
Owen heard the noise and turned around to see that it was Hall and the others returning. He immediately hung up the phone, stood up, and asked with a smile, "Why are you back so early? Didn't you say you'd come back after dinner?"
"Brother, what happened?" Hall frowned. He was too familiar with his elder brother. His elder brother's smile was so fake that it was uglier than crying.
Owen was silent for a while, and finally sighed and said, "We didn't want to let you know so soon..."
Elaine had recently received news that General Carter Williams, leading a force from the Twelve Star Regions, had been attacked by a large Zerg horde. General Williams had disappeared during the battle and was currently missing. Elaine had urgently mobilized troops to reinforce and conduct a rescue operation. However, the incident occurred during the crucial period of the Hall finals, so the two had intended to keep it a secret until the reinforcements and rescue team had received more information. However, they hadn't anticipated being discovered by Hall.
"Brother, is Raman Baker also missing?" Hall asked in a deep voice.
As his father's adjutant, Raman Baker was naturally always by his father's side. If his father disappeared but Raman was unharmed, it would be very suspicious.
Irving, unaware that Hall had become suspicious of Raman Bakker, answered truthfully, "He was slightly injured, not missing."
"I see." At this moment, Hall's suspicion of Raman had reached its peak. He anxiously asked, "Has the search and rescue team set out?!"
"Preparing to depart..."
"Tell mother that I want to go too!" Since his father's safety was at stake, Hall couldn't possibly care about celebrating. He just wanted to go to the Twelve Star Regions immediately to help search for his father.
"Oh." Owen sighed. He had long expected that if Hall knew about this, he would definitely react like this. "Okay, I'll contact mother right away and reserve a place for you on the search and rescue team."
"Boss! I'm going too! I'm going too!" Chris said immediately.
Before Diana and Ignaz could speak, Hall stopped them and said, "No, all of you stay and carefully investigate the problems within the Second Army and Raman Baker."
Hall felt that his father's disappearance must not be so simple. Raman Baker was a strong suspect. He hoped that Chris and others could stay and help his mother investigate. He was not at ease to entrust this matter to anyone.
"Boss, don't worry, we will investigate this matter seriously." Chris and the others also understood Hall's idea and immediately agreed to stay.
"Wait a minute, I'm going too." Auckland suddenly said.
"What are you going to do? Stop making trouble!" How could Hall agree to let Auckland follow him on an adventure?
"I can help make the coat of arms, and I have the ability to protect myself." Oakland did not back down because of Hall's fierce tone. He looked at Hall with a very firm look.
The two looked at each other, their eyes collided fiercely, and sparks seemed to appear in the air.
In the end, Hall was defeated. "Don't leave the spacecraft casually, don't do anything dangerous."
"Okay." Auckland smiled happily and rushed back to the room to pack his things. The things he wanted to bring were very simple, only an energy board and a magic crystal pen. He felt that if they wanted to fight the Zerg, there would be a great need for the emblem. It could help them reduce casualties, eliminate the Zerg as soon as possible, and save more time for search and rescue.
After Joey had a good nap, he woke up to find that Hall and Oakland were missing and had not returned until dinner time. He thought his two brothers had gone back to school without him, and was a little angry. But later he found that his eldest brother looked worried all the time. He had a hunch that something was wrong, but he had no way to ask. He could only try to be well-behaved and not cause trouble for his eldest brother.

Hall and Oakland drove to the starport. The massive spaceship, which would carry the rescue team and supplies to the Twelfth Sector, was already ready. It was loaded with a thousand superalloy mechas and twelve intelligent mechas, including Hall's Thor. The rescue team consisted of eight hundred of the Second Army's finest mecha combat divisions, one hundred heraldry divisions, one hundred mecha maintenance divisions, twenty communications divisions, and eighteen medical divisions—a truly comprehensive team.
The person in charge of the command is Major Sean, who is also a close confidant of General Williams. Although his military rank is higher than Hall, because of Hall's special status, Sean respects him very much and will seek his opinion on anything.
Sean was originally a little confused about Hall bringing a young man on board, but when he learned that the young man was the famous Auckland Campbell, he became extremely enthusiastic about Auckland. With such a talented herald, the success rate of their rescue operation this time would be greatly improved.
The spaceship quickly set sail. The distance from the capital planet to the 12th star region was approximately 0.45 light-years. Even with modern space jump and black hole folding technology, the journey would still take at least fifteen days. This required two space jumps and five black hole folds, so everyone had to lie in hibernation pods for safety.
At Oakland's request, Hall and Oakland were placed in the same room by Major Sean, with their hibernation capsules placed side by side.
Auckland lay in the hibernation capsule and automatically practiced the Fire Cloud Technique in his body. The voyage would take fifteen days, and he couldn't waste this precious time. He needed to seize the time to practice and strive to build a foundation as soon as possible to help Hall search for his father.
Hall's hibernation chamber is right next to Auckland's. This is what Auckland requested. He hopes that the spiritual energy that overflows during his practice can be of some help to Hall.

Fifteen days later, the spacecraft arrived near the place where General Williams disappeared in the 12th Star Region. The place was full of densely packed Zergs. The troops stationed and patrolling in the 12th Star Region were caught in a bitter battle, and soldiers were constantly being sacrificed.
Everyone had just woken up from hibernation and had no time to react when the alarm on the spaceship sounded. The Zerg had discovered their spaceship and launched an attack on them.
"You wait here and don't run around!" After Hall instructed Oakland, he immediately went to the cargo hold of the spaceship where the mechas were loaded, and led the mecha team to counterattack together with Colonel Sean.
Hall distributed the several golden shield emblems he had and asked everyone to carry energy cannons and at least two energy stones with them, so that they could use the most violent attacks to kill all these annoying bugs.
Hall's mecha was the first to rush out. The bugs that wanted to gnaw on the airship were blocked outside by the energy shield. Seeing Hall's mecha, these bugs immediately surrounded it, spraying a large amount of corrosive liquid from their mouthparts, trying to melt their prey so that they could eat the delicious food inside.
However, what greeted them were huge fireballs.
Elemental flames bloomed on the bodies of the insects, burning the densely packed insects into fireballs. The insects screamed miserably and turned into charcoal and fell down.
Seeing how powerful Hall was, the other team members immediately launched an attack. Energy cannons exploded in the swarm, killing one insect after another.
Although the killing power is very great, the number of insects is too terrifying. It is estimated that there are at least hundreds of thousands of them. It is unknown how long their energy can last. But they cannot retreat now. They must open a gap to allow the search and rescue team to go out for search and rescue!
