Chapter 1619: Ambiguous Instructions
At this moment, Duo Gan actually took the initiative to mention Xingtuan, so Qu Jianlei asked, "Can't we bring Xizhao and Yi He with us?"
"I'd love to hear that!" Dorgan answered without hesitation, "With the knowledge of those two seniors, they might be able to figure out something."
Before that, she was indeed a little reluctant to leave there.
She identified highly with the team and didn't mind spending any more money.
However, that star cluster is unique and cannot be bought with money. What if... there really is some opportunity hidden in it?
But as she stayed in the team longer, she found that no one cared about the nebula anymore.
And judging from the team's development trend, no matter what secrets the nebula holds, no one cares much about it.
This made her feel conflicted. Having the opportunity was good, but if she couldn't cash it in...it just didn't seem right.
The team was also nice to her. Although they had robbed some things at the beginning, they also gave her two magical weapons as rewards.
Several times, she even took the initiative to suggest - let's study that nebula.
It’s just that the team has been busy with too many things to do, and she has no reason to bring it up.
This time it was finally brought up, and she of course welcomed Xizhao and Yihe to study it together.
However, if the five of them leave, Jiao Daoren and Feng Wangxi will become two factors that pose hidden dangers.
Then we can only ask Qing Hu, Jia Shuiqing and the paranoid to keep a close eye on him. As for Da Vinci... he went back to seclusion.
However, unfortunately, not long after Taoist Jiao came here, he actually developed the habit of letting his mind wander.
Anyway, he is currently focusing on expelling the turbidity in his body, so he doesn't need too much spiritual awareness. It is normal to separate a wisp to look around.
In fact, when Taoist Jiao was on Taiqing Star, he was trapped in a cave and liked to let his spiritual consciousness wander around.
The magical sand on the stone wall of the cave is used to prevent outsiders from exploring and also to guard against him.
Hearing that there was such a place, Taoist Jiao took the initiative to contact Qu Jianlei with his spiritual sense, "Take me with you to take a look?"
Qu Jianlei was a little surprised, "Aren't you going to retreat and rest?"
"Don't we have a division-level ship?" Orochi said, "We can rest on it. It won't delay anything."
Qu Jianlei then realized that this person was not unwilling to go out, but did not want to take too much risk before resting.
Since Taoist Jiao was going, Jing Yuexin expressed her desire to bring the female fisherman along - after all, it was a fire spirit, and that nebula was also fire-oriented.
But once the Lao Nu left, Feng Wangxi lost a nemesis, and finally everyone decided to take Shu Jian away as well.
The paranoid man was jealous and volunteered to go along.
So Qing Hu was left behind to guard the Dawn Base.
Jia Shuiqing was of water attribute, so she did stay. However, she borrowed the talisman pen from Taoist Jiao and was still working hard to study talismans.
When the division-level ship took advantage of the wind and took off into the air, the military naturally asked what had happened.
Digital Phantom has been very quiet for more than half a year since the robbery, and this big move is really eye-catching.
The most important thing is that Feng Forgotten’s whereabouts are still under surveillance by the military and government.
The paranoid one said that we should take Shujian with us, find a deserted place and test out the tactical coordination.
The military was now in a dilemma, as the other party clearly did not want to continue to be monitored.
Otherwise, the space here is large enough. Isn't it enough to carry out tactical exercises?
But it is impossible to let Feng Wangyi escape from surveillance.
They urgently asked the headquarters for instructions, and the order was: Don't negotiate with the other party anymore, just follow quietly.
The warships at the scene were confused - following silently, was it suspected of provocation?
But there was no explanation from above, so they could only follow the flight.
And some warships must stay behind to continue guarding the Dawn Base.
The same goes for the government's starships. For a moment, it was a little unclear how to choose.
Then they contacted the military and decided to follow suit, sending one of the three research vessels to accompany them.
Their communications were all under effective monitoring by Xiaohu - the government and the military were also well aware of this.
However, even if they knew, they couldn't make a fuss about it. It didn't make sense that they were the only ones who could monitor, and Digital Phantom couldn't use the same measures.
The cards played by both parties are transparent, but this is cooperation, and it can be regarded as a basic mutual trust.
Just follow quietly... The division-level ship gradually accelerated and flew into the depths of space.
The three parties maintained a tacit understanding; no one asked questions or explained.
Seeing that the speed of the division-level ship was getting faster and faster, the people on the warship hesitated - if they didn't negotiate, what would happen if the other party made a leap?
Once the Digital Phantom leaps, if we don’t know the target’s coordinates, we will definitely lose face.
The adjutant couldn't help but urge, "Captain, if you don't contact the other party, it will be too late."
The captain hesitated for a moment and asked, "What is the military's order?"
"Just follow them... but now, they are obviously preparing to warp."
The captain looked at him and asked helplessly, "Are you going to disobey the military's orders?"
"But..." The adjutant frowned, then sighed, "Is it just a pretense?"
"That's the only way I can understand it," the captain replied in a deep voice. After a pause, he continued, "You know the situation in the two theaters of operations."
Not to mention that the Federal War Zone has always wanted to ask Digital Phantom for help, even the Alliance War Zone has been transmitting relevant battle reports very frequently.
When did the military have such an obligation towards civilian forces?
After all, the Alliance War Zone is also deliberately maintaining contact with Digital Phantom, and it is obvious that there is a possibility of asking for help at any time.
In terms of alliance, the Empire does have a great advantage, but the more critical the moment, the less room for error.
Moreover, the empire lacks sufficiently powerful means to deal with the alien races in the locust world.
The adjutant agreed, and after a while he nodded, "Yes, in recent years, the alien tree has been quite honest."
This is indeed the main reason why the military tacitly allowed the water to flow.
If Feng Wangxi hadn't acted so harmless, the military wouldn't have issued such vague orders.
The government starship became anxious upon seeing this and asked directly, "Where are you going?"
The paranoid man answered calmly, "The tactical exercise is confidential. If you can catch up, we have no objection."
The official starship was now angry and immediately contacted the military warship to discuss how to resolve the issue.
The adjutant did not try to hide anything and directly brought out the conversation that had just taken place between their sides.
"...Anyway, it's an order from the military, we can only do our best."
The government officials were much smarter than the military. They smacked their lips and realized what was going on. “You’re letting us go on purpose!”
The military replied coldly, "We don't dare to take on this responsibility, but military orders are as strong as mountains!"
The government officials were furious, but the military's attitude was very clear: to let them go.
In this situation, it is basically impossible to expect the government to take a tough stance.
In extraordinary times, the army, as a top-notch machine, has real weight. The government’s city defense warships are really not good enough.
Some even suggested, “Maybe the military is waiting for us to be the bad guys, and then they will intervene and be the good guys.”
So the official warships just protested, "The aliens you are carrying are out of control."
"If any abnormal situation occurs, you will bear full responsibility. I hope you will consider it carefully."
The paranoid person doesn't even reply - if he replies at this time, the other party will record it, which will inevitably put him in a passive position in the future.
However, after calling several times and finding that the other party did not answer, the officials became really angry.
"You're pretending to be deaf and can't hear anything? That's all you have the guts to do!"
This person was really irritated by the Digital Phantom's arrogance, so he blurted out this.
"Huh?" The paranoid man was annoyed when he heard this. "Leave your name. Who gave you the courage to speak to the Supreme Being like this?"
"Boy, do you believe that I can kill you in the street without taking any responsibility?"
Hearing this, he immediately shut up. After turning off the transmitter, he whispered, "Isn't it the Supreme who came forward?"
How could he have imagined that the unfamiliar voice with a slightly hoarse tone on the other side could actually be from someone above the Supreme?
The military received the report and immediately made a judgment, "I'm afraid there is no Supreme on the division-level ship..."
According to common sense, this kind of daily communication work is usually not undertaken by the top combat forces.
With such a level of cultivation above the Supreme, even if a big shot from the military appears, he may not be qualified to talk to him.
If you think about it more deeply, if this division-level ship is full of Supreme Beings... then this kind of tactical exercise really needs to be kept secret.
Realizing this, the government and military starships remained silent, and just watched the division-level ship leave...
Revisiting the old place, Dorgan looked at the small dark red ball in the distance, and a hint of sigh flashed across his eyes.
"If I hadn't continued to practice for so long, I don't know what would happen now..."
The space within the nebula effectively increased her combat power, but at the same time, it also caused her body and mind to become too separated.
She didn't regret it at the time, but after meeting the boss and others, whether this choice was the right one...that's worth discussing.
When the division-level ship was still more than 30 million kilometers away from the star cluster, Xiao Hu suddenly issued a warning, "There are two non-star ships ahead."
When they were more than 10 million kilometers away from each other, the other side also discovered them.
The stealth performance of the division-level ship is top-notch, but its size is too large, and the opponent's detection capability is also very strong.
Now we can vaguely distinguish that the two starships on the opposite side are one heavily armed merchant ship and the other a large merchant ship.
When the two starships discovered that there were starships approaching, the heavily armed merchant ship went straight to meet them, obviously trying to block them.
But after traveling more than one million kilometers, they finally saw the full picture of the opposite starship.
A larger starship is not necessarily scary. Even if it is a division-level ship, the military has to be reasonable, right?
However, when the other party saw the painted markings on the ship, they turned around and ran away without saying a word.
Dorgan narrowed his eyes and whispered, "I bought out the exploration rights for this airspace for two hundred years."
