Chapter 257 Frontline
Chapter 257 Front
Lin Xisuo slept for a day and a night with a gorgeous pillow. The fifth echelon arrived smoothly, and the two sides gathered together to continue their journey.
The tide of insects blocking the waterway has disappeared without a trace. I don’t know what the fate of the first four echelons are. Five days later, the Phantom arrived at the place where the last third of the star map was collected.
"Captain Lin, why are you here? I'm waiting for the luxurious gift package you promised!" Mr. Ma suddenly appeared on the light screen and saw Lin Xisuo teasing casually in the main control room.
"Old Ma? Why are you here?" Lin Xisuo was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that this guy would actually run here for a long distance. The trader was not staying in the Hunter's Bar but was in danger. He couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Tsk tsk, the star map is kept by me, so I will naturally follow you. Less nonsense, this is my use of my power to contact you. According to statistics, more than 30 interstellar cruise ships have fallen into trouble along the way, and they are eaten by insect tides, so there is no residue left. The scene is so terrifying!" Mr. Ma shook his head, as if he was worth it for the victims.
Lin Xisuo sat lazily on the captain's throne, leaning his chin with his hands and smiling: "Thank you, Mr. Ma, take care of you in the Hunter Bar, and make a small profit a few days ago. If you collect the original crystals, the captain will naturally give you a big gift, and you and I will continue to cooperate in the future."
"Haha, Captain Lin is a smart person. You should know that I took a huge risk to contact you not just to ask for gifts. The first Galaxy's chaebol withdraws, thinking that this matter is not worth the loss. The second Galaxy and the third Galaxy have followed suit, and some small chambers of commerce secretly helped. It is conservatively estimated that more than 1,000 interstellar cruise ships participating in the operation can only go back to 200. The danger is very great, and the profit is also very generous. It depends on what level Captain Lin wants to reach." Mr. Ma's eyes were full of greed, and he did not hide his desire for crystal refining at all.
"Three families? Which three families are they?" Lin Xisuo suddenly realized. It seemed that the chaebols in private had already experienced a secret fight, and Mr. Ma knew a lot of inside story.
Mr. Ma replied happily: "These three families are the Long family and the Qu family of the Second Galaxy, and the Mu family of the Third Galaxy."
"Qu family? Mu family? Can they also call it chaebol?" Lin Xisuo's pupils shrank slightly. You should know that the Phantom and Qu Yujie formed a bond, and they also had an unpleasant experience with Mu Wanhua, a lady from the third Milky Way. As for the Long family, they heard about it, but because they had little connection, they had not learned about it in detail.
"How can I call it? As long as the power group built with many groups as the roots and the power is relatively concentrated in their family, it can be called a chaebol. These are the second best. I heard that your ship had a marriage with the Qu family before. You should know that the Qu family is most vindictive. Although this trip to the mine was mainly the Long family, it is easily affected by hatred. It has always been common for the Qu family to solve opponents in large-scale operations, so please be careful. I can't help with anything else. Here is an ancient star map. If the Phantom has gained something and is in trouble, you can go back to the ancient channel to the Dawn Red Square. I wish you good luck." Mr. Ma nodded and then simply closed the communication.
Lin Xisuo was stunned and said to himself: "This old horse will not be aimless. Suddenly sending a star map must have received the news in advance. Could it be that Qu Yujie..."
"Mei'er, help me analyze the star map. If Harley is involved, you must recognize the authenticity of the star map. This Mr. Ma seems to be a small person, but he has a clear and clear look. If this star map is not a conspiracy, it might be useful." Lin Xisuo's eyes became deeper and he smelled a trace of danger from it. The three chaebols decided to secretly engulf the mineral veins. If Mr. Ma expected it to be good, and more than 1,000 interstellar cruise ships could only go back to 200, then the strength of the Zerg would be terrible.
"Okay, let's deal with this matter. If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves thinking about it. I am so weird that I really have to make plans early." Mei'er said while drawing the star map, and then hurried to the fort area to find Harley to discuss related matters.
After obtaining the last third of the star map, the fifth tier interstellar cruise ships no longer fly in order. Some clutches stood out and couldn't wait to go to the planet where the mine veins were located. Whether it was watching the fun or following the cheap, they could no longer fall behind.
At this moment, the other nine captains came together, and Marshall asked, "Captain Lin, I think you should have rested enough. I guess those B-class interstellar cruise ships have arrived at the mine veins and eliminated the insect tide. Since the Phantom is known for its speed, why should it be slow behind it? If young people are afraid of losing, don't come out and make a fuss."
The virtual meeting hall was full of gunpowder. Monica and Victor looked at Lin Xiso, obviously also had the intention of asking.
"It seems that everyone is anxious, which is reasonable. Our ten ships are a whole. If there are discordant tones, it is difficult to strike the enemy effectively. The captain here apologizes to all the captains. Because the Phantom has to complete some internal settings, the voyage has been delayed. But then again, if there is 500 million units of crystal refining reserves, it will take two or three months to mine. The Long family and the Qu family of the Second Galaxy, and the Mu family of the Third Galaxy are all waiting and watching. Do you think it is appropriate to take action so early?" Lin Xisuo's words were shocking. The nine captains looked at each other and started to talk in a low voice through their respective wave frequencies.
After a long time, Captain Victor raised his head and asked, "Is Captain Lin's news true? If even the Long family had to wait and see behind the scenes, this mine vein would not be so easy to collect."
Lin Xisuo glanced at Marshall, and then explained half-truely: "The person who provides information has a high position and power. Captains, please think about how the words said by the person who can get the certification code are unreliable? In fact, he is an elder who is at the bottom, just using some connection to help the younger generation. If the ore veins are really so easy to dig, or if it is difficult to achieve a certain degree of difficulty, how could we be slow to move behind the team at the speed of our Phantom?"
"Hmph, Captain Lin didn't say it earlier, making us worry along the way, maybe the Phantom is preparing to eat alone." Marshall felt that he was being despised, and his anger was ignited, and his words became heavier and heavier.
Before Lin Xiso could speak, Monica hurriedly persuaded: "Captain Marshall, if these secrets were revealed in advance, it is difficult to guarantee that they would not spread in the fifth echelon. After all, we know a lot of captains. If the good things of destroying the Long family are good, I believe that all captains know what the consequences will be, so Captain Lin is right to be cautious."
Monica said it very well. Marshall looked at everyone and praised it, with a chilling murderous aura in his eyes. Unfortunately, Lin Xiso didn't notice it.
Lin Xisuo bowed slightly and continued to say, "I am ashamed of everyone. I would like to ask Captain Marshall to take the lead and speed up to go to the battlefield. If you wait until the Long family takes action, it will be really too late."
"Boy, I believe you once, I want to see how large the Zerg gathered near the mine veins are." After Marshall said that, he left the meeting hall and sulked alone.
"Captain Lin, don't be as knowledgeable as Marshall. He is a rough man." Victor is very good at being a human being, and he saw that Lin Xiso was a little unhappy.
"It's nothing, Captain Marshall is straightforward. We will become friends in time." Lin Xiso said simply and politely, so he ended the electronic meeting.
The fleet gradually accelerated, and the Archangel rushed for several hours every day, making everyone crazy with Marshall.
The entire voyage took half a month and finally arrived at a remote planet with only a number. This planet has a meager atmosphere and sparsely low vegetation attached to the ground. Everyone has not observed the specific location of the ore veins and has been stunned by the scene in space.
Mei'er murmured: "How could this happen? The stag beetle, which ranks 128th in the strange insect list, is no wonder so many interstellar cruise ships have not yet broken through."
The stag beetle has giant jaws, and the giant jaws are forked like deer antlers. It is about five meters long and has three colors: light blue, oily black, and dark red. Light blue is the most powerful. This insect looks very fierce. They like to suck the juices of other animals and plants. They are a Zerg with strong attack power in the universe.
"Damn, these chaebols are so cunning." Marshall cursed, not so resistant to Lin Xiso's decision.
The scale of the insect tide is very terrifying. There is a stag beetle that ranks 128 on the list of strange insects. Other Zergs are watching from afar and are not willing to get close.
At this moment, more than a thousand interstellar cruise ships were connected into a line, as if stormy waves were rushing forward.
Each impact of these interstellar cruise ships can support each other. Lin Xisuo was surprised to see that Harley said solemnly on the light screen: "It seems that there are very strong wise men in this operation to command the battle. The human camp has not suffered much loss, which is probably beyond the expectations of those chaebols?"
Lin Xisuo calmed down and said, "I thought it would be a miserable scene everywhere in the ships. I didn't expect that after so long, no ships landed on the planet. It was a mistake! Harley, do you think you want to join the front line?"
"Join, you must join. This is a question of attitude. Does the captain really think that those B-class interstellar cruise ships will let those who arrive later go and get a bargain? If the situation is very chaotic, it is indeed possible, but there is no need to expect anything at the moment." Harley twitched and answered the captain.
After receiving Harley's advice, Lin Xiso began to announce: "Captains, the situation has changed. The interstellar cruise ship has formed a strong front and can confront the stag beetle. We join in now to help us in time. It is easy to cause criticism when we break through the insect tide. Pay attention to the formation and let us go to the front together!"
The only captain wanted to wait and see for a few more hours, but the Archangel took the lead in charge, which caused the ship behind to move, and the time was not long before it reached the front.
"Hey, newcomers, you are from No. 1,214 to No. 1,224, follow the instructions." A sweet girl suddenly appeared on the light screen, pointing out the attack points that the Phantom and the other nine ships need to be responsible for.
