Lin Hai is the son of a planetary nobleman, Redier is an air thief who has to defect due to a conspiracy of a superpower tycoon, and Xia Ying is the daughter of the Minister of Defense of the Great Eagle Empire.
It's no wonder that she will be accompanied by a frigate when she travels, and Li Yifeng will say that she has a huge family behind her. And she has been silent, unwilling to reveal her origin and origin, probably to prevent everyone from looking at her like this.
It is also conceivable that as the daughter of the Minister of Defense of the Empire, Xia Ying became an idol of the Empire and appeared outside, which must have been forbidden by the strict tutor, so in order to make her voice heard and do what she liked, she really took on a lot of pressure, and these pressures and temporary laissez-faire were probably conditional on her agreeing to the compromises that the family needed her to make at some point in the future.
The identities of the three people are a wonderful combination, but they meet under the desert-like surface of the New South Star.
Seeing Lin Hai and Reddirle on the other side of the light screen staring directly at him, Xia Ying smiled, "What are you doing looking at me like this, am I a monster?" "
"My identity has always been top secret, even if I appeared on the TV station as an anchor, and under the excellent secrecy, except for a few people, no one knew that I actually had a father who was the Minister of National Defense."
Reddirle muttered, "I just think those air thieves actually attacked the passenger ship of the daughter of the Minister of Defense, the five-star Admiral Summer, have they ever thought about how to write dead words?" Reddier looked behind him again, "Now I'm starting to feel sympathy for the two air thieves, Raphael and Tavasi, who may have received a secret order from someone to search for you, but they don't know that it is the daughter of Charles who they are desperately trying to hunt down now... The so-called ignorant are fearless, and that's about it. "
Xia Ying chuckled, "The reason why my father kept it secret was because I didn't want every eye that was originally kind to me to be filled with awe, and I hope that my career as a woman should work my own, rather than hype through the so-called family background." Or be used by people with ulterior motives to push closer. "
Then she looked at Lin Hai, as if she didn't want him to misunderstand something, "The reason why I didn't say it before is just because I don't want you to have an unnecessary burden." "
Lin Hai felt a little cautious in her words, and just smiled bitterly, "Isn't your status as an imperial idol enough to be a burden for a small person like me?" The identity of the daughter of the Minister of Defense is probably numb. "
Lin Hai is in the garbage star, it's not that he hasn't seen the news from the dilapidated light screen TV, so of course he knows who Charles is. He didn't know what the specific title of the Minister of Defense was, but he knew that all the Imperial starships cruising in space, the air port fleet bases of those divisions, all the military districts stationed on this imperial territory spanning hundreds of light years, the relevant important orders were issued from the Imperial Ministry of Defense, and all the orders of those cruising fleets could not be bypassed through the signature of the five-star admiral named Charde.
This is a man who can spread willpower on the territory of the Empire's starry sky.
And now in front of him is his daughter.
Lin Hai, who grew up from the garbage star, never imagined that one day he would meet the daughter of the Minister of Defense, and it was impossible for him to meet in such a way.
"The son of a planetary speaker doesn't seem to be a 'little person'," Xia Ying quipped, "but usually such an identity doesn't seem to be in my eyes." But you're a special case, and it makes me look at it differently. "
"To what extent?" Lin Hai blushed and said tentatively, "Promise by body? "
Xia Ying, who thought she would be angry, looked at him quite narrowly, "I really promise to marry you?" "
Lin Hai has never made any big promises in his life, but at this moment, he felt a little inexplicably fluctuating, "If you dare to marry, I will dare to marry." "
"Even in the face of a monstrous flood? Even in the face of all kinds of difficulties, even in the face of Rotten Tomatoes smashed by countless people behind my identity as a female anchor? Even if it's in the face of a five-star general who is so strict that you can't get past it? The corners of Xia Ying's lips raised slightly.
"If I say that I have cooked raw rice into cooked porridge, I wonder if he can still be unkind?" Lin Hai blinked.
Xia Ying finally couldn't help but show her eyebrows lightly, and then gently rested on the soft flesh of Lin Hai's back with her bare hands, pinched and twisted fiercely, Gondor pulled at high speed, and suddenly stumbled, followed by a scream of pain from the cockpit.
...
An all-round electronic map is displayed on the light screen, and as long as you compare carefully, you can easily find the location where the two mechs are running. This map has all the markers and scales, and even in the new south star where the stellar sunspots exploded and many peripheral electromagnetic communication devices were not available, it was still impossible to get lost in those desert and no man's land.
There is a red dot in the upper left corner of the map, which is prominently displayed on the map, and the location is just a desertified hard rock mountain.
Lin Hai put the chip obtained from Cohen, the leader of the Cohen Workers' Party, into the Gondor navigation computer, and read out an electronic map.
Passing the map to Reddirle in the mecha next to him, the three of them watched as the map unfolded in front of their eyes.
"I didn't expect that mafia leader to actually have a batch of treasures hidden in front of us, if we turn around from here, there may be about 1,500 kilometers away, and this location is 3,600 kilometers away from the station of the First Military Region of the Riverside Star. It is 4,500 kilometers away from the garrison of the Second Military Region, and so close to the two major military bases, it can be said that it is reasonable," said Reddier, "If the Cohen Workers' Party hides something here, it can also take advantage of the fear of some rogue bandits for the military region's garrison, and it will avoid a lot of trouble... For example, we air thieves will never sail our ships so close to the two major military bases! "
"Could it be a trap?" Xia Yingxiu frowned slightly.
"Unless Cohen at the time, he really didn't want to live. Or maybe he had predicted in advance that he would face such a catastrophe, so he deliberately set a trap based on it... This is of course impossible. Lin Haidao.
"Since it's a treasure, with our identity as air thieves, where is there a reason not to explore, if I let this thing not take a look, I won't feel at ease!" Reddill smiled hesitantly, "And this investigation will never affect the overall situation of our convergence with the large army, why not?" "
The two mechs turned around and began to trek towards the location of the chip logo left behind by Cohen of the Workers' Party.
...
Arriving at the hard rock mountain where the marker is located, through the mecha's telescope, the three of them are greeted by the ruins of a pit and factory in the valley. This is supposed to be a large industrial area, but I don't know how many years it has been abandoned, resulting in desertification and rust everywhere, and countless rusty iron things "grow" through the sand, which looks like an alternative and decadent beauty.
At the end of the ruins of the factory, there are some stations, where people can be faintly seen, and some armed armed men are settling around a factory.
"These are supposed to be the remnants of the Workers' Party, but looking at their panicked looks, they must have known the news that the Workers' Party had suffered a major blow." Reddier smiled, "More importantly, in order to prevent this ruined place from looking more important and thus attracting some other forces to covet it, the Cohen Workers' Party has only deployed some armed fighters here, and the defense is not tight, it is very likely that this batch of goods is only temporarily stored here and will be transferred away soon!" Heh, if it's really like that Cohen said, this is a precious metal that can make high-precision weapons, we will make a fortune this time! Let's go, let's take over here! "
After Redier finished speaking, the first one drove the Marshall mech and rushed over.
It is clear that for these remnants of the Cohen Workers' Party, they were only given the task of garrisoning and protecting the site, and they did not even know what valuable Workers' Party assets were hidden under this ruined factory. Of course, this did not affect their loyalty, but the constant news that the leader Cohen might have been killed by terrorists, that the leadership of the Workers' Party at the front had suffered heavy losses, and that the Workers' Party had suffered a huge blow made them panic.
If they hadn't adhered to their mission, and the superiors who had contacted them might have forgotten that they didn't have any further information to bring in, they might have evacuated.
However, now, when they saw a Marshall mech smash into their station, most people still didn't know how they had suffered such a fate.
The resistance of the Ruined Factory is better than nothing, mainly because there is no main force of the Cohen Workers' Party stationed here, the militants here only have some conventional weapons to deal with ordinary combat, and the only two mech pilots have just reacted to the mech and rushed out in a mech, and they are knocked to the ground by the air thief leader Reddir.
Without the help of mechs, the infantry wanted to fight against this mechanical weapon completely with pebbles, so soon the last of the Cohen Workers' Party forces, which might have been in order, fell apart, died and fled. By the time Gondor arrived, Reddil had almost finished the battle.
Seeing the corpses all over the ground, Rao is Xia Ying, who had experienced life and death and escape, couldn't help but flicker at this time.
Reddil's communication rang out at the right time, "Don't blame me for being too heavy, after all, you are not as good as me, you have grown up in life and death, and I have also had compassion, but it only brought disaster." Although these Workers' Party are a small part, they must not be taken lightly, if they are not beaten by thunderous means and have an irresistible mentality, they are likely to flee and realize that there are only two mechas, so they will gather a large force to rush over to support, and at that time all our thoughts will be burned down. It just so happened that now the two big air thief mechs, Raphael and Tavasi, were making a commotion in the rear, making them think that these two air thief forces were coming, ensuring that the Cohen Workers' Party would never dare to return to this place. "
Reddil is really a powerful character who has created a living space in this universe, and all aspects of thinking are handled perfectly.
Lin Hai nodded, "I understand your concerns. "Lin Hai and Xia Ying have seen the leaders of the Workers' Party in the Congo Town Tavern and their brutality, so now they don't have much burden to fight this Workers' Party, they may have been just a group of poor workers in the past to breathe in the environment of being oppressed and exploited, but when they gained the ability to oppress others, they became more and more intense, and finally grew into today's mafia, the so-called poor people must have something to hate, roughly so.
After Redier nodded, he drove the mecha from behind with full firepower and pretended to chase after the deserters for a while, and one mecha made dozens of mecha rampant and domineering postures behind, until the remnants of the Workers' Party really fled with their lives and blood, and then returned heartily to report, "Okay, this time, let's rest assured and boldly see what the Cohen Workers' Party is hiding here?" "
The exterior of the factory was covered in rusty iron greenhouses, many places had been pierced by rust, and from the air or from the outside, it was just a ruin, and if it were not for the electronic map and the sight of the remnants of the Cohen Workers' Party stationed here, Lin Hai and the others would have almost wondered if they had really come to the wrong place.
Two mechs pushed the gate open, revealing a metal gate leading to an underground link in the dusty white floc, as if the abandoned factory was just a camouflage exposed.
The door is quaint and heavy, with a somewhat mottled lacquer finish, and the light from the outside shines through the ventilation windows of the factory, and the pillars of light shine bright spots on the door. In this way, the mecha obscured the light and shadow, casting its shadow through the gold-plated particles flying in the air and projecting it on the gate.
"Just look at the brightness of the slides on the floor of the gate, and you know that behind this gate must be a storage warehouse of the Cohen Workers' Party. The most cunning rabbit will definitely build many nests, I have heard before that some smugglers have placed warehouses all over the New South Star, hiding some strange things in them, there are a variety of contraband, drugs, the most high-end realistic cabins, smuggled luxury cars, gold bricks, diamonds, and even crystal mines, and even more hidden battle mechs, fighter planes, and even starships from other countries, as long as you can afford the price, there are no surprises! The Cohen Workers' Party organization has grown rapidly in New South Star over the years, and it is difficult to say that it did not obtain funding through these channels... Damn, this door actually has a combination lock! "
The probing Reddil manipulated the mecha to stand up, and said, "Of course there is a combination lock on the door, I'm afraid the password is in the hands of Cohen himself, but he can't make a sound in this world anymore." "
"Although the lock is a secret, it seems that the secret cannot be unlocked without a key. But in this world, things like keys have always only worked for gentlemen and gentlemen... Lao Tzu is an empty thief! The Marshall mech pulled out two cutting blades with his backhand, adjusted the high-frequency power to the maximum, and then cut into the gap between the closed door like tofu.
As soon as you pull it down, you can clearly hear the sound of metal breaking as several of the latches inside are severed.
Lin Hai thought to himself that the Cohen Workers' Party was also a regional-level top force in the mafia, but it was still too tender to talk to the empty thief leader in front of him.
Cutting the central connecting latch, Lin Hai also manipulated Gondor to pull forward, and the two mechs held half of the door on one side, and then forcefully on both sides, boom! The gate was opened inch by inch, and the motors that controlled the gate erupted with sparks and a screeching sound.
Pulling open the door, at the end of the deep underground corridor, there is a basement the size of several pitches, and in these basements, there are densely packed with brick-shaped things wrapped in some kind of dry paper.
Built on a wooden shelf, densely packed from beginning to end.
There were no metal materials as Cohen was talking about, no sophisticated weapons, no smuggled missiles, no mechs, nothing metal-related, just small packets of wood and dry paper...
Seeing the scenery in front of him, under the eyes of Lin Hai and Xia Ying's gradually widening, Reddier's voice came hoarsely, "These are!?" "
...
No one would wrap useless things in wood and drying paper, and then pile up in large quantities in this precious warehouse to bait the arrival of the two of them.
So what was in the underground warehouses of the Workers' Party was not useless.
The cockpit of the Marshall mech opened, and Reddier leapt down, rushing to the wooden shelves with no end in sight, and then tore open the dry paper packets inside, revealing some of the dried green things.
Lin Hai and Xia Ying immediately walked out of the mecha, and saw Reddier in front of them holding these things in both hands, then sniffed deeply between their noses, turned their heads to face the two of them, their eyes were scarlet, "It's tobacco!" It turned out to be tobacco! It's all fucking tobacco! "
Tobacco!
This is the devil of human society, from the ancient earth era to today's interstellar society, there are too many things that appear and die, and they can't leave any trace in tens of thousands of years of time and space, but the stubborn vanilla plant of tobacco is different, it is like a ghost of human society, accompanied by the misty aroma of those big people, accompanied by the light smoke rising from those negotiation tables, accompanied by the ashes shaken off by those people's fingertips, the tumor seems to have existed tenaciously for tens of thousands of years. It still haunts every corner where there is a human being.
There is a proverb in the east of the ancient earth that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, but now the extension is that where there are people, there is the ghost of tobacco.
Although this kind of thing is contraband in most countries today, and even has been blocked by the strictest blockade of the traders' alliance, because everyone knows what kind of magic tobacco has for the whole of human society, even this still cannot stop the big people from taking a liking to it.
"Tobacco ..." Xia Yingmei's eyes narrowed slightly, "it is unique among all creations, it is the companion of the lonely, the friend of the single, the food of the hungry, the stimulant of the mourning, the sleeping pill of the nervous breakdown, the campfire of the chilling, it is the devil and the angel, it is the friend and the enemy, it is the help of the genius, but it is the grave of the inactive." Is this the tobacco that is called the root of all evil? "
Of course, Xia Ying knew about this plant, in the TV station, the old station director who could promote the Star District TV station to the imperial society and monopolize the top three in the imperial radio rankings, the most exciting thing was to take out this imperial contraband in his own small room and immerse himself in it. And the smokers who are crazy about it, as well as his few high-ranking figures in the empire who are closely connected and hold great power.
And now, there is so much tobacco in front of me!
Reddil, who sniffed the smell fiercely, raised his head excitedly, "It is one of the world's finest Guarana tobacco, and now the planet that can produce tobacco can be counted on your fingers, Guarana is one of the best, and there is no taste of this kind of tobacco that can be extremely close to the production of the blue earth in ancient times." So this kind of thing has always been a luxury for the powerful, a diamond in gold! Compared to this, those so-called valuable things are simply not worth mentioning. "
Lin Hai's pupils shrank, "So it seems that what Cohen told me at the time was just his lie." "
Xia Ying nodded, "Come to think of it, he said at the time that it was a raw material for making high-precision weapons, but in fact, he hid his eyes, just deceiving your identity and the real purpose behind it, it is obvious that he treats you as another kind of person." If you really came here for these tobaccos, you would naturally ask him directly about tobacco, and ignore the so-called precision technical raw materials he made up. And if you're tempted by what he's saying, then he'll have a way to find a way to get him to safety. "
"If I confront him, he will obediently call out the tobacco to save time. If I'm tempted by it, it proves that I don't know anything about his tobacco, so I leave him with a chance, and if I waver a little at the time, maybe it gives him a chance to turn the tables around. Lin Hai's eyes shone brightly.
Xia Ying continued, "But in the end, he didn't play you around, and I didn't expect you to ignore his 'temptation', you just want him to die, in order to give an explanation to Lu Ming, who was shot." "
Reddirle found a chair and lay down on it, as if all the fatigue before had been relieved and channeled here, and muttered excitedly, "I thought it was gold, I thought it was diamond, I even thought it was crystal ore, now even if it's a high-speed missile, don't want me to be tempted!" Guarana tobacco, no wonder the Cohen Workers' Party has moved so much recently, and has obtained such a large batch of Guarana tobacco, presumably the origin behind them is not simple, although I don't know where this batch of tobacco will be shipped, but it can be guaranteed that this must be a huge profit, more precious than the so-called luxury goods, high-end weapons! Can I, Reddil, have been running the air thief business for so many years, be able to compare to the value of one-tenth of this batch of tobacco? With such a large amount of tobacco, Lao Tzu can use the money to stone Raphael and Tavasi to death! "
Redil carefully rolled up a tobacco leaf with papier-mâché and handed it to Lin Hai, Lin Hai waved his hand to signal that he didn't need it, so he took it in his mouth and lit it with an oil-stained windproof lighter, the tobacco leaves accompanied by a crackling sound in the firelight Countless red threads, the air emitted bursts of unique aromas, between the light coming in from the vent, Reddier seemed to enjoy the most wonderful thing in the whole world, and the Adam's apple rolled out a comfortable soft sound, raising his head in a daze.
"There's a saying that don't mess with someone who is chewing tobacco." Reddill's slightly magnetic hoarse voice came, "I seem to be able to understand the meaning of this sentence now, think about the audience behind these tobaccos?" How many of the big names of the empire are fascinated by this, and even willing to become slaves of this thing? Tobacco is like a shackle that hangs from the heads of the big guys... I don't know what layers to lay out for these Cohen Workers' Party tobacco, but from now on, it seems that this thing will be transferred to us! "
Taking a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, Reddier threw it on the ground in front of him and stomped it out with his foot, this kind of extravagant thing, he had never thought of it before, but now he had to interrupt his desires, as if he had made a decision, he turned his head and looked at Lin Hai, "Now these things are all yours." "
"To me?" Lin Hai squinted slightly, "You're not greedy?" "
"It's a fool not to be greedy!" Reddill scolded, "Don't hang me, it's a decision I made with great difficulty!" Do you know how much it hurts in my heart right now? But what's the solution? I can't beat you, Reddir's gang of air thieves, if I really attack your industrial zone when you participate in the war this time, I'm afraid that the elite I am proud of this time will be wiped out, don't fuck my mother-in-law, I'm Reddil is a person who recognizes it, not that kind of seed, but I still have some self-knowledge. Your Riverside Xinglin family is now facing a bankruptcy crisis, this batch of tobacco, you can imagine what kind of help it will bring you, I am afraid that it is possible to become a star district-level nobleman! "
Reddier grinned again, grinning in pain, "Don't talk to me about how to sell these contraband, you are a noble family, and everyone the knows that you nobles have some underground channels and methods." It's enough to survive the crisis, and it's even more likely that your status will leap thousands of miles in the family, hehe, when the time comes, you will be the head of the family, but don't forget Lao Tzu, an ally in distress! It hurts! "
Lin Hai smiled and said, "Haven't you ever thought about killing people and killing people?" "
"Think, why don't you want to, I was thinking again and again just now, or I just brought back the big army and slaughtered the two of you horizontally! It's really a curse for people's minds, and the harm is endless! Even if he gets this batch of tobacco, what else does Lao Tzu have to stab his allies in the heart? When I was sniping Raphael, Lao Tzu's mecha was a burden when it was broken like that, and I didn't see you throw me into the wilderness, to be honest, I thought countless times what would happen if I was captured alive by Raphael, I'm a man, but I definitely can't survive in the hands of those two perverts, so I'm afraid I'll solve myself in advance. Life in the world is nothing more than this, and the success or failure of right and wrong will be wiped out in a blink of an eye. At that time, I didn't think we could escape, but I was afraid that you would be planted too! But you dragged Lao Tzu's mecha all the way to break the enemy. I, Reddir, was framed to go on the road of an air thief, and I have accumulated some blood on my hands, but after all, I am not one of those wolf-hearted people, after so many years of air thief life, even if I become the kind of person I hated the most, but I am at least a person. I, Reddil, would dare say I'm a lot better than those brutes, at least I'm principled. When I was in the most crisis, you didn't do anything to leave your allies and stab you back, how could you do this kind of thing at this time to sell your allies just for the sake of tobacco profits? "
"So don't talk so much nonsense to Lao Tzu, what you say is yours is yours! You Lin nobles have this help, are you still afraid of that flea Zhao Jing? It can be regarded as giving Lao Tzu a bad breath, this Zhao Jing organ wants to get rid of me by the hands of you and other air thieves, and I really want to tell him that the wicked have their own wicked grinding. "
Lin Hai looked at him quietly, and then smiled, "Are you finished?" "
After taking a sip, Reddier took a deep breath, "That's all, after that, let's go and join the big army immediately, and then you can notify the people of the Lin family to come and take over." "
"When I'm done, it's time for me to say," Lin said, "these things... It's all up to you. "
Redil's scalp was numb, his body suddenly tensed, and he looked at Lin Hai in disbelief, a shock mixed with a huge sense of happiness, accompanied by his shallow words, like thunder.
"Can anyone tell me where they are? Who can sue me, who are they, where, in!? "At a meeting on a hill, among the two major air thieves who had indeed lost the traces of Lin Hai and Reddil's mechas, Raphael, the leader, was piloting his mecha, lying on the bridge in the middle of a large group of hideous mechas, pulling his hair.
He couldn't stand the two of them, so he killed their only two reconnaissance mechs under their eyes, and then just walked away!
This kind of shame can drive people crazy!
"Fuck! Damn it! Raphael, your people are all rice buckets! Even Lao Tzu's reconnaissance plane can't protect it! "Tawasi's mecha, guarded by a group of mechas, lifted a cadre of the Raphael Air Thieves, and came to Raphael's car, glaring angrily!
"Less blood! It's because your two reconnaissance planes are too stupid, since they know that their importance must be the target of their assassination, they still dare to rush to the front, no wonder all the men you Tawasi brought out are stupid! Raphael Yin Yang Strange Qi Dao.
"If you dare to say it again, Raphael, I'll pull out your tongue!" Tavasi's tall Warhammer mech stepped forward.
Raphael's "Mantis" mecha quickly probed forward, and the two left and right arms were sharp like the scythe of death, "Hehe, if you want to pull out my tongue, don't you know that I wanted to cut off your hands and feet and turn you into a human stick, it must feel good to disassemble you with my own hands, that will definitely make me climax!" "
The two largest air thief forces in the New South Star Universe are clearly tense and tense, and it seems that the next moment, internal strife will break out!
However, although the air thief forces on both sides are now forced to unite, after all, neither side is stupid, and they know that once the two sides fight, they are afraid that their vitality will be greatly damaged, but they will let others benefit, so both sides have maintained the most basic restraint. But if it weren't for the common purpose at the moment, I'm afraid that the two sides would really start a decisive battle.
Tavasi's hand was on the lever, his fingers clasped the energy cannon upside down, and he glared at Raphael on the other side.
Raphael naturally froze a wicked smile, the micro-manipulation lever of the mecha arm pulled by the two hands, and the two blades grasped by the external mecha alloy arm, as if they would explode forward at any moment and perform a sharp blow.
This tense atmosphere passed for several seconds. The corners of Raphael's mouth opened into a strange arc under Raphael's slightly hideous face, as if he had suddenly had an epiphany, "Immediately call me the direction of the last battle with Reddil!" "
An electronic map appeared in Raphael's cockpit, outlining the locations of several encounters.
On his unusually ugly face, which was illuminated by a faint fluorescent light, Raphael grinned, "I see! I finally got it! "
"What the hell do you understand?" Tavasi's impatient voice came from the voice.
"See, they only have two mechas, but they dare to snipe us, where is their confidence?"
"Needless to say? Naturally, they want to delay the time of their large army going to the garrison of the First Military District, and try to confine us here! "
"Tavasi, your people are as clumsy and stupid as your mech!" Raphael said bitterly, "The first time they sniped, they were obviously encircled, but they were desperate to destroy our reconnaissance mecha, what was the purpose?" At that time, our encirclement was only focused on probing forward, ignoring the high ground at all, and if it was only to stop us, there was no need for them to risk their lives to target our reconnaissance mechs. Because whether there is a reconnaissance mecha or not, we will pursue it in the direction of the first military region, even if the reconnaissance mecha is destroyed, it will only slow down us, and it will not be enough to make them pay such a big price. Everything has to pay attention to a game cost, which is too big, but they still have to do it for only one reason, and they want to cover up their extremely risky strategic purpose. "
Raphael mused, "Based on the speed of our search, their escape speed still can't match our all-armored mech operations. Even if the two mechs of Reddil contain us, we can still catch up with their large forces rushing to the First Military Region, so it is impossible for them to stop us like this, and the only explanation is that they use the two mechs to try to guide us to a destination that is diametrically opposite to their large forces. "
"If they hold us back, where will their real forces be headed?" Tavasi muttered, then his voice was rapid, "Is it!?" "
Raphael uttered the words he was about to utter, "Second military base!" "
Tawasi quickly called up the electronic map, and the pursuit party of the entire air thief group was also quickly analyzing, "The Second Military Region has thousands of kilometers more than they have to travel to reach the First Military Region, which is extremely risky for them!" "
"It's such a risky plan that can be deceived at a critical moment! Because none of us believed that they would dare to travel thousands of kilometers more than the near and far! "
"So what do we do now? We are already in the direction of the First Military Region, if we turn back, it is difficult to say that we can still catch them? "
Raphael smiled coldly, "Don't forget, Reddil's willingness to stop us despite the danger is exposing their weakness. If their large forces really have the strength to get rid of us, how could Reddill risk his life, he knows that once I catch him, he will be better off dead. This guy values his gang of air thieves very much, which I really admire, he actually left only two mechs to stop us, delaying us to deliberately steer us in the other direction, must be because the speed of their large army is very problematic. The information we have squeezed out of the remnants of the Workers' Party can confirm that it must have been Xia Ying and his party in their hands, which is why they have been so dragged down and finally forced to carry out such a plan! "
The surrounding air thieves listened to Raphael's analysis, and couldn't help but concentrate slightly, those subordinates of Tawasi, only then put away a lot of contempt, Raphael's air thieves gang can dominate with them for many years in this airspace, and become a figure on the same level as their leader Tavasi, it is not in vain, but this analysis can make people have a deep and cunning sense of scheming towards him.
"We have no other choice," Raphael turned around as he manipulated the mech, "we have to make a bet with them, bet that we can all go full speed ahead now and be able to rush and intercept their large forces!" According to our rumors, Reddil's elite is exhausted, but there are only a pitiful dozens of mechas, facing us, that is, a one-sided slaughter! They are lambs, and we are wolf hunters, all turn around and head in the direction of the Second Military Region of the Great Eagle Empire, chase me! "
In the no-man's land of Xinnanxing, it seems that there is another storm, and hundreds of mecha are the main body of this storm, dragging countless cigarette tails and killing in the direction of the second military base!
...
Six hundred kilometers away from the headquarters of the Second Military Region, there was an old oasis, and at this time, Shattrath, Jimmy, Warren and others had arrived at this agreed meeting point, but on the horizon, the trace of the two mechs that went to block it was still far away.
The farther away it is, the more the gap between the hearts of the two sides gradually becomes anxious as time passes.
For example, Warren and Jimmy, although they are out of danger, but at this moment, they are still very anxious in their hearts, on the one hand, they are worried about Xia Ying's safety, and on the other hand, they also have a sense of disobedience to these air thieves around them.
Jimmy and Shattrath's voices came from outside, "Why can't you let us go to the military district station first, you want to know who Xia Ying is?" She has tens of millions of fans behind her! I don't know how many people in this empire are worried about her safety, once we arrive at the second military region station, we can immediately call for assistance, and when the time comes, we don't have to worry about any air thieves like Raphael and Tavasi, naturally there will be an army to deal with them! I can guarantee that they will do their best to save Xia Ying! "
Shattrath's voice also came coldly, "Then we're done too!" Who can guarantee that you will not betray us? Oh, will we only consider releasing you until our leader returns? "
"What does it mean to think about releasing us? Do you still want to detain us, this is our agreement beforehand, and we know that the air thief is not reliable! Jimmy's angry voice was heard.
Warren, who was then in the carriage, saw Jimmy escorted back to the carriage by several heavily armed air thieves with firearms.
"Our Reddier Air Pirate Regiment has always been very trustworthy, we agreed to turn here, but your people haven't come yet, but they are going to go to the military region station, can I think that you will play tricks again, don't play tricks with me, don't force me to shoot you personally." Shatassen's cold voice came.
Jimmy was escorted back to Warren and sat down next to him, Warren looked up at Shatrath, held back a trace of anger, and mocked, "They are two mechs after the break, but they are facing a group of air thieves who are much stronger than you, if there is any mistake because of your hesitation, and the rescue time is missed, not only your leader Redil is finished, if Xia Ying can't come back, you just wait to bear the wrath of the empire." "
To say that Jimmy and Warren are most dissatisfied with this exile, is that in the face of Shattrath, the second person in the air thief gang, Shattrath, he always shows such a cold and cold attitude, which makes people always feel that his innate cynical attitude towards everything, from his eyes, tone, and even any small action overflows, making people really want to punch him twice in the face. Of course, now they are controlled by the air thieves, and in the face of the other party's arrogance, the so-called other people's eaves bow their heads, although they are not angry in their hearts, they still can't resist.
The warehouse is full of tobacco with the scent of dry tea, and in the pillar of light shining through the ventilation window, there is a static beauty. These things that emerge in the halo have an inexplicable charm that has been inexplicable since ancient times, it holds the heads of the powerful, stimulates the inspiration of the calculators, invigorates the hearts of the radicals, and is the catalyst for the copulation of the powerful, and in the eyes of those people, this charm is difficult to completely erase no matter how forbidden the imperial society is.
Tobacco is a luxury, and it is also a luxury with a kind of mystery and the taste of forbidden fruits, in the eyes of those powerful people, it is a rare forbidden, maybe it is the trace of tobacco addiction, or that trace of rare and expensive hunting and collection hearts, it is destined to them even if it costs ten times the price, but also to grab the mentality.
So these tobacco, things that can be exchanged back, where is it just pure money?
And Lin Hai in front of him just said this, and he easily rejected Reddil, who was reluctant to say the transfer.
Xia Ying knew Lin Hai's identity, an earl's illegitimate son, his identity and status were there, and the name illegitimate son was not good to say. Although in her eyes, a riverside star nobleman was not enough to make her feel weighty, and these tobaccos could not make any material waves in her well-informed heart, and perhaps Lin Hai might not be able to reach the level she was at in her lifetime. But deep down, she wants to see Lin Hai go further and stand taller. The value of these things, for a noble illegitimate son, has a self-evident confidence, at least to make his status compared to the past heaven and earth.
So hearing Lin Hai's words, Xia Ying was stunned. Then she kind of understood. For the illegitimate son of a minor nobleman, sometimes these things may even be a source of disaster, after all, tobacco is contraband in the Empire.
Reddirle was surprised at first, then laughed, "Don't be kidding. "
"No kidding." Lin Hai looked at him and said.
"And what are you trying to do?" Reddir's face was slightly solemn, and the shock and surprise just now were replaced by a sudden hesitation, "Let's say okay first, I'm Aurora Reddir, and I won't die for anyone." "
"Not really," Lin Hai shook his head and said, "Along with this great change, the Empire's elimination of the New South Star Sky Thieves will soon be, even if you can safely evacuate under the pursuit of Tavasi and Raphael, but the Imperial fleet that follows is a catastrophe, and with the value of such a batch of tobacco, it will definitely help you tide over the difficulties." "
Reddir's expression shook slightly, and after a moment, he said, "Why are you helping me so much?" Escape is our business, speaking of which, aren't we air thieves just surviving from countless escapes, don't underestimate me, the fleet commander of the New South Star Station Airport didn't seriously want to take my head to ask for credit, but which time can touch half of my hair? Even if the empire really sent a fleet to arrive, those starship generals who were extremely unfamiliar with the terrain of this celestial domain could really take down my Reddir? If you sympathize with me, then you have miscalculated, I, Reddil, have never needed sympathy and pity, and think that this is a shame, anyone who underestimates me, I will use my own strength to make him suffer. "
"But what about your companions? If you are in danger, it means that those who follow you are also in danger. "
Reddil's face flashed with a hint of hesitation, and he said in a deep voice for a moment, "The brothers who follow me Reddil know very well that they don't mind making sacrifices when they need to. In the line of short thieves, fear of death is the basic code of conduct, but it does not represent their character. "
"It's true that they are not afraid of death, but the key is whether it is worthwhile to die." Lin Hai said lightly, "I'm not afraid of sacrifice, but is it worth sending to death?" This is something you can't avoid and have to consider. You have so many brothers who are willing to die for your words... And are you willing to let them die one by one in order to fight against the Imperial army? "
"If you are really willing to let them die just for the sake of your own simple stubbornness that you don't want to bow your head, then I will be disappointed, you are actually just selfish." Lin Hai turned his head and walked towards his mech, each step of his boots on the ground would bring up some light dust that lingered and flew up and down under the pillar of light. In the light from the ventilation windows, it looks like they are gilded.
After a long silence.
Reddil's voice sounded from behind him, "I just said that I, Aurora Reddil, will not die for anyone... But for the sake of some of the people I recognize, I was stabbed a few times... Still no problem. "
Xia Ying pursed her lips at the meaning of Reddil's words.
Lin Hai turned around in astonishment, looked at Reddier who was standing in the light and shadow, and gradually narrowed his eyes.
The tattoo of the scorpion on his forehead, the muscles of his arms were condensed, and the tall man standing in the shadows with his military boots spoke again in a low and slightly hoarse voice at this moment, "You are the son of the speaker of the Earl of the Riverside Star, although you are not a descendant, but the eldest son of an orthodox nobleman... As a nobleman, how can there be no power around him. What if I said that I, Reddir, will follow you from today... I wonder if you will look down on my origins? "
Redil walked in the light, a pair of calm and resolute eyes like a flat lake, locked on Lin Hai.
"Oh, but let's say it first, this kind of cooperative relationship between the two of us is only limited to this batch of tobacco, I am a very principled person, this batch of tobacco should have been yours, but since you gave it to me, then I should pay the corresponding price. When this batch of tobacco has exerted all its value, maybe then my Reddier will have full wings, and you will have a rich family, then we will no longer have to have a hard time, that is, when our cooperation ends, the stars are vast, and I, Redier, will take this as a voyage and part ways with you! "
Xia Ying's eyes trembled as she looked at Reddir, who said this, and then looked at Lin Hai opposite him, and her mood involuntarily fluctuated like a tide. Although she didn't know a certain commitment between men, it didn't prevent her from trembling in her heart at this moment.
She seemed to paradoxically think of the men with conspicuous military ranks who always stood next to her father on major festivals, and those men would also go to the soup and fire as long as their father said a word, they would cross the line through the stars, and even dare to use their own bodies to drive fighter planes to crash into enemy starships. They are like a whole, an invincible and oppressive whole.
Although the two men in front of her were not at all comparable to the soldiers beside her Imperial Minister of Defense's father, in a sense, there was a striking resemblance.
Seeing Lin Hai's eyes flickering in the light. Redier took a step forward, the whole person was bathed in light and shadow, staring at him, his eyes were deep and sharp, and continued, "That duel between us, maybe you don't understand what it means, in the tradition of air thieves, if someone within the air thief wants to fight for power and profit, and wants to seize the position of the leader, there are only two ways, the first is that the original leader is dead, and he will inherit the throne. The second is to propose a duel, where the winning side becomes the leader, and the losing side is exiled permanently! This is the law of the jungle in the air thief world. "
"In our duel, you overcame me despite your strange moves, even though you caught me off guard. From this point of view, none of my rabbit cubs will disagree with you. On the other hand, although they don't say it, I can see that they are moved and changed by you from the bottom of their hearts! and a kind of respect for the strong. "
Lin Hai looked at Reddirle and smiled slightly, "That's all?" "
Reddill nodded vigorously, "That's all!" There is still a little ambition, and I don't want to stay in this place for the rest of my life, to be an air thief who will never dare to show his head under the pursuit of the Imperial starship... I want to go out, I want to go out one day, and I want to get back all the humiliation I have suffered... So if one day I say goodbye to you, it's time for me Redil to sail away for revenge. Until then, I don't mind being your temporary follower for a batch of tobacco. "
Single-handedly fighting against them Reddil's entire air pirate group, and risking his life to snipe and scout mecha in Rafael Tavasi's air thief group, reborn and kill a bloody way to break out, others don't know, how can Reddier not know Lin Hai's strength and courage.
Under Reddier's gaze, Lin Hai's gaze, which seemed to have no ripples, trembled slightly at this moment, and then he turned around and walked over, and stretched out his hand in front of Reddil.
Hold your hands together and clench them.
History will remember many moments of handshakes, the handshake between the representatives after the war, the handshake agreed upon by tens of millions of people, the handshake of the interstellar magnates for the common good, the tacit handshake between power and power...
At this moment, there is no written record of these two hands shaking each other. However, an illegitimate son and a lawless empty thief leader use this empty picture to show some kind of legend that is waiting to be broken out.
A temporary assembly camp agreed with the air thieves.
In the face of Warren's ridicule and warning, Shattrath frowned, in fact, Warren's warning of missing all the rescue time was really the most worrying place for him, the surrounding air thief members were all looking forward to Reddil, almost a cult of personality, no one doubted Reddil's strength, to be honest, it was exactly like this, in the universe of the New South Star, these people all thought that they were Reddil's soldiers, and there were various reasons for them to become air thieves, Some of them used to be professional soldiers, but they were all cornered, and they were finally taken in by Reddil, who gave them comprehensive support regardless of their previous suspicions. So much so that all the air thief members have a blind pursuit of Reddil.
I always feel that their leader, even if he single-handedly picks up the entire Raphael Tawasi air thief force, can definitely kill the bloody road.
Air thieves are the most knowledgeable group in the universe, but the real air thieves are incomparably affectionate and righteous, and some people even recognize a leader and will not change for life, even if they are martyred, it is not uncommon. Perhaps it is precisely because these are a group of desperate people with no way back that they will give a kind of reliance and follower to a leader who takes them in and leads them. It's like a person who has nothing, and only the air thief group, the place where they are contained, will do their best to maintain it.
But Shattrath knows very well that the "Aurora" Reddir, the so-called "unbeatable" Reddir, and the so-called "Riding the Dust" Reddir, these are just nicknames for some good deeds to build momentum and create fame, the real Reddir, in addition to him, will also be confused, and there will be times when he is vulnerable. Of course, Reddill's role in these loyal air thieves is an all-powerful leader. But in front of him Shatrath, sometimes he will be helpless and hesitant, he will also regret one thing, and he will also worry about whether he will wake up tomorrow, whether he will still be able to see the bright stellar light like peach blossoms, whether he can still enter the happy place, and experience the madness of ecstasy.
He's just a man.
It is a fantasy for one person to fight against hundreds of mechs with another mech, and this is also a dilemma that the Reddier air thief gang has never encountered.
But his appearance could not be revealed, and it was certainly not possible for Warren and Jimmy to enter the Second Military Base for help, as there was no doubt that their Reddil gang of air thieves would be completely destroyed, so he had to wait for Reddil's return, and although there was little hope, he could only wait.
Shattrath faced the mocking Warren, still with that mean look of pursing his mouth, and said indifferently, "Don't be kidding, if that Reddirle guy gets into any trouble, it's definitely your people who are dragging their feet!" "
After waiting for so long, everyone in the surrounding gang of air thieves was also panicked in their hearts. They also came up with the result that they didn't dare to think about, and now Shattrath's words made them think it was true, and they all cast a deep dislike for Jimmy and Warren, because they really worship Reddil like that and are loyal to Reddil, if something really happens to Reddil, then the only thing that can be blamed is that Lin Hai, who went with him, dragged their leader back!
Jimmy's face turned blue at Shattrath's caustic tone, and Warren responded coldly after a brief period of anger, "It's ridiculous, you have seen Lin Hai's mecha piloting skills, and it can only be your Reddir's good or not...
Warren said proudly with some sarcasm, "Who is it that with just one mecha, he played the entire elite of your air thief group, and before that, he also unloaded your squad from the cockpit?" Such a character, my Warren, is rare in my life, and if you want to talk about holding back, your leader Reddirle is not worthy of lifting his shoes! "
Warren went from his initial contempt and disgust for Lin Hai to the experience of the Workers' Party incident, and he seemed to have changed his views all of a sudden, in the past, he might not have been able to say such a thing, but in the face of the hateful Shatrath, he suddenly let go of all his prejudices against Lin Hai, and when he said this, he still had a slight feeling of blood flowing.
In the carriage, there were Jason's team and others, who were indeed "unloaded" from the cockpit by Lin Hai, and they knew that these words were true, so they were all red-faced and extremely ashamed. The other air thieves didn't think much of it, but when they heard his words insult their inviolable leader, Redil, they all showed the hideous faces of the air thieves, and if they could, they would like to shoot this fat pig with one shot!
Shattrath's face did not change, and the corners of his lips, which looked a little delicate but mean, were raised lightly at this time, and said coldly, "What a stupid guy, don't you see that when Redier and the Lin Hai you admire fought, they deliberately showed mercy to their subordinates and deliberately lost, the purpose of course was to focus on the overall situation and unite to escape from the encirclement of the two air thieves!" As for the Lin Hai you are proud of, I'm sorry, I've been an air thief for so many years, and there are many people with a higher level of skill and control than him, and most of the people who oppose us like this have died in the starry sky, hehe, if it weren't for our leader Redier considering his possible usefulness, you think he might have survived until now? If it weren't for the idea of letting Miss Xia Ying be a hostage with him, in this interception battle, Redier would be enough alone, why would he pull a drag? That person's name is Lin Hai, right... It's really a kid who doesn't know the height of the sky, thinking that he knows a little bit of control and makes some messy movements, so he is complacent? In this New South Starry Sky Thief Realm, seriously speaking, there are more people who are stronger than him! He just wants to join our air thief group, and Lao Tzu will be the first to kick him out! If you don't rush anything, it's the name Lin Hai, it's awkward to say, it's hard to remember! "
Jimmy and Warren rubbed together, and all they could do was curse angrily, "... Fuck you! "
Encumber? There are many people who are stronger than Lin Hai's operation? If that's the case, then Jason's team was all unloaded from the cockpit? If you really want to use your own strength, a mecha against your entire elite? When he still couldn't suppress the other party, Reddil chose to duel. And on top of the duel, with the power of two chainsaws, he cleaved the tide and defeated Redil! These abilities and technologies, put in Shattrath's mouth, are just messy and trivial paths? Is it Redil releasing water?
Warren and Jimmy are both engaged in journalism, the first principle is the truth, at this time he was already trembling with anger, he may not have any attitude to defend Lin Hai, but this worthless guy in front of him who opened his eyes and said nonsense to devalue Lin Hai, he couldn't wait to hit him with two punches in the eye socket.
However, the surrounding air thieves themselves still have some mental obstacles about this duel, just listening to Shattrath say this, immediately untie the knot and have an epiphany!
Why did Reddier have to duel him, and why did Reddill lose? It's all a great strategy for Reddell's sake to take care of the big picture! If it weren't for Reddill's plan, they would have been killed by the two major air thief forces that had caught up in Congo Town! It's not that you don't fight with Lin Hai, but there is no need to fight senselessly!
The surrounding air thieves suddenly burst into a coax, one by one aimed at Jimmy and Warren, and the cynicism at Lin Hai was endless, in short, there was no good word, especially the air thief pilot who was sniped by Lin Hai in the end, causing the gyroscope to malfunction, and the mecha could not stand, and he spared no effort, in his opinion, how could an elite like him be hit by the other party, this is completely that kid's shit luck is too good! It's not really capable at all! This kid went with their leader Reddil, that is, a follower, maybe it was still a drag, if the leader couldn't come back, he would definitely be burdened by the other party! There's nothing good to say at the moment.
Only the Jason team, an air thief pilot who really fought with Lin Hai and understood Lin Hai's combat effectiveness, was silently in the corner, silent, silent, and his face was very red.
Hearing the air thief's characteristic cynicism beckoning to him, Jimmy Warren was born in the news, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, his forehead was bruised, and he trembled lightly with anger.
Shattrath coldly clasped his hands, it was enough to achieve the goal of striking the two of them, and he had successfully used words to reverse the inner doubts of these air thief elites who followed him, and establish Reddil's prestige, but his worries were still undiminished. He actually has some illusions about Reddil, for so many years, as he fled all the way, under the siege and interception of the enemy's big forces, he came to this Great Eagle Empire's New South Star, it is impossible to say that he has no luck in his heart. But more of this comes down to trust in Reddil, which naturally translates into belief in Reddil, and even some deification.
Before becoming an air thief, Shattrath was Susa's greatest young military academy technical officer, to tell the truth, the entire research team behind Reddil was under his leadership and guidance, he was arrogant, and never bowed his head to anyone, but Reddill was an exception, when their entire research team would bear the blame for a persecution, Reddill did not hesitate to pull him who was stubborn to commit suicide at that time to board the escape spaceship, so far to the ends of the earth, all the way. From the initial resistance, to the final acceptance of the fact of becoming an air thief. A smart man like Shattrath has always done his job dutifully. And he thinks that all these new lives of himself are brought about by the man Reddier!
This man may well really be the kind of person who is favored by the Creator.
If something really happens... He immediately appeared in the figure of Lin Hai. Shattrath gritted his silver teeth fiercely, if Redil really died in battle, Lin Hai came back alone... So no matter what the real situation looks like, he must let that guy named Lin Hai accompany Raidier to bury him together!
