Chapter 196 Hope
Because of the previous response of "Get lost" from the Angry Eagle Fleet, it was relatively faster to directly connect to the communication channel.
The buzzing sound of electricity echoed in the dark room. The technicians were anxiously adjusting the settings in front of the operating table. Ilian, the Chief Inspector of the Eye of Oversight, came in person as the war was approaching, which showed that this request for assistance was of vital importance.
After a while, a rough voice sounded in the room through the communication channel, "Get out."
"This is Hope Township, there is an emergency military situation."
"roll."
Ilian's expression remained unchanged. He said in front of the channel: "I am the leader of the First Chamber of the Eye of Supervision, the Star Order Group, Inspector General Ilian."
There was an irritating low laugh from the other side, "You are Illian, and I am still Mansfield."
Ilian's voice remained unwavering. He calmly recited a codeword that was used only in emergency situations within the Eye of Supervision. Only the communication technical officers and supervisors of a certain level within the Eye of Supervision could know it. He said, "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Tell Wolf to come and talk to me right away."
"You, are you really..."
"Let Wolfe come here immediately!"
The other party's voice was cut off. The room fell into silence. Xiao Zhen couldn't help but feel a little excited. This ancient transmitter could actually break through the layers of communication interference fog laid by the Izel aliens and contact the Eagle Fortress. Hope Township might really be able to wait for real reinforcements. Although, this is just a drop in the bucket.
After a moment, the communication was connected again. Another arrogant voice pierced the air, "The communication officer said it was you, Lord Illian, it can't be you."
"It's me, Wolf." Illian said, "There is an urgent military situation in Hope Township right now. A large number of Izel alien fleets are about to break through Hope Township's orbital defenses. I request..."
"Wait, you said the Izel alien? That can't be true. The intelligence we received is that the Izel alien is lurking around Wangbeixing."
"I'm in the Land of Hope." Inspector General Illian emphasized his tone, "I witnessed a large-scale Izel alien fleet with my own eyes. I am responsible for the authenticity of this intelligence. I request the Angry Eagle Fleet to come to the rescue immediately through the teleportation vortex."
Wolfe replied, "This is not something I can decide alone. Wait a moment." Then more noises were heard in the communication channel, and another person's voice appeared in the communication channel, "Your statement does not prove anything. We will set out to Wangbeixing according to the order of the Eye of Supervision Council."
"The council was fooled! Wang Beixing was a feint attack by the Izel aliens. Because the Eye of Supervision Council did not receive the distress signal from Hope Town at all! As long as someone witnessed the scale of the alien fleet, they would know which side was in real danger and should be rescued. And I witnessed it all." Ilian stated.
"So why didn't Hope Township send a distress signal to the Council?"
"Because the Izel alien fleet has blocked all long-distance communications around Hope Township."
The rude voice snickered and said, "You are contradicting yourself. Since all long-distance communications have been blocked, how can Lord Illian send a message to contact us?"
"This is using ancient local equipment that can break through the interference field and transmit messages within a certain range. So far, only the Angry Eagle Fleet has responded to us."
"Ancient equipment?" The other party sneered. "Can you come up with a better excuse?"
"Watch your tone, Holank. I know it's you." Illian's voice became icy cold. "Give the communication to Wulf."
"What if I say no?" Holank mocked on the other end of the communication, "You are not my superior and have no right to command our Angry Eagle Fleet."
"This is a life-and-death situation for Hope Township. They need help. My rank is higher than yours. According to the regulations of the Eye of Oversight, when a large-scale war occurs that affects the star region, I, as the Inspector General, have the right to mobilize fleets from other courts."
"Can your few words alone prove that there will be a large-scale war?" Holank's tone became more rude. "Without the order of the Council Chamber, no one can mobilize the Angry Eagle Fleet."
Ilian's face was filled with anger. "Holrank!! Your actions are destroying the lives of billions of people in Hope Town!!"
"Lord Illian, Lord Mansfield is not here. The First Court is no longer the same as before." A third voice rang out, "Don't try to threaten us, the Angry Eagles. When it comes to whether to send troops, we will only obey the orders of the Council Chamber."
"Don't you understand that this is an extremely urgent military situation?" Ilian lowered his voice, "Coward!"
"Lord Ilian, is this your attitude ?" An impolite laugh came from the communication channel.
Ilian clenched his fists, his anger was burning in his blood, but his reason was telling him that for now he had to just endure it, or even humble himself and beg.
After a burst of unbridled laughter, a frantic scream suddenly came from the communication channel, followed by a sound similar to the collision of furniture, followed by a few short and painful cries. Then the communication channel fell into silence.
Ilian and his adjutant Miao Wen looked at each other.
what happened?
"Holrank? What happened over there?" Ilian shouted anxiously, "Holrank!! Holrank!! Wolf??"
The communication channel remained dead silent, and then a strange and frivolous laugh was heard.
"Who?? Who is it and where is it?"
A familiar, slightly hoarse voice sounded, "Ilian, your panicked tone just now was really interesting."
In an instant, Ilian, the adjutant Miao Wen and Captain Ban all widened their eyes. They were very familiar with this voice. This person had been living with them day and night not long ago. This was... Shark Fang's voice.
"Shark teeth?" Ilian asked in disbelief.
"It's me. What a pity." He chuckled, "If I had waited a little longer, I might have seen you begging for mercy."
"Shaya, why are you on the communication channel of the Angry Eagle Fleet?" Ilian glanced at Xiaozhen, "Where are you? What did you do?"
Bang!
A holographic image appeared in the air, and Sharktooth's figure appeared like a ghost. He activated the holographic image communication.
"you there?"
"Can't you see?" Shark Tooth spread his hands, "The communications room of the Eagle Fortress."
"Why are you here?" Ilian looked at Xiaozhen and said, "Aren't you imprisoned..."
"Roken M89 released me after the Zekin left Shanles. Of course, it was a conditional temporary freedom. So, I drove a light speedboat here."
"What did you do?"
"Well, those two barking pieces of trash are now quiet forever." Shark Tooth fiddled with his metal claws, which were gleaming with blood. Xiao Zhen saw two bodies lying behind him.
“Are you crazy!!”
"Don't worry, Wolf is still here." Shark Tooth brought Wolf over from the side. "I thought he was still able to communicate, so I didn't hit him in the neck."
"You killed them just because they didn't agree? You're crazy!!"
Sharkfang grinned at them and said, "This way, the Angry Eagle Fleet can be dispatched." He pressed his claws on Wolf's neck. "What do you think, Wolf?"
"You're courting disaster, Sharktooth," Wolfe whispered.
"There is no one who objects now, useless commander." Shark Tooth kicked the corpse on the ground, "Wolf, hurry up, I know you want to respond to Illian's request for help."
Wolfe's face was pale and sweaty. He turned to look at Illian, " Is it true that there is a large-scale Izel alien fleet in Hope Township? Mr. Inspector General Illian, please answer me."
Ilian had regained his composure by this time. He said solemnly, "Star Spirit, what I just said is true."
Wulf stared at Illian, and in an instant his eyes ignited with a determined light, "Then under the coercion of Shark Fang, I will lead the Angry Eagle Fleet to rescue."
Wolfe left the communication channel.
Ilian looked at Shark Fang in the holographic image. He opened his mouth but didn't know where to start.
Thanks.
Shark Fang gave a mocking smile as before and closed the channel.
Xiao Zhen came to the village next to the launch pad and was greeted by an elderly Leoite man.
After Xiaozhen mentioned the characteristics of the Impeccable, the old man told him that not long ago, there was indeed a ship matching his description that had made an emergency landing and crashed in the mountains.
"Are there any survivors?"
"Yes." The old man told him that the villagers rescued about hundreds of surviving passengers from the wreckage.
"Are there any Homo sapiens ?" Xiao Zhen asked excitedly.
The old man frowned and said that they rescued too many passengers and the impact on the specific passengers was not deep. There were indeed many Homo sapiens survivors on the ship, but he couldn't remember if there were any young Homo sapiens as old as Xiaozhen.
Xiao Zhen remembered that the Russian man said that his nephew was acting with Liu Xingquan, so he asked if anyone had seen a young Russian man.
"Yes." The old man remembered it very clearly now. He said that there was only one Russian among the survivors, and he was indeed very young.
"So where is he now?"
"All the survivors have been sent to Muli City," the old man replied. "They should all be in the shelter now."
Muli City, which means Liu Xingquan may have arrived at the shelter in Muli City now.
Xiao Zhen bowed his head and thanked the old man. At this time, the sky was flashing and thunder was rumbling. There was still a fierce battle above the orbit of Hope Township. He asked the old man if he wanted to take the residents to find a place for shelter.
Old man Lelit refused, saying that they were the guardians of Lothal's legacy, and they would guard here for generations regardless of whether the Izel alien would come or not.
Xiaozhen and his group left this place. They walked out of the Tita Mountains and re-entered the airship to fly into the sky.
Ten minutes after flying on the airship, Ilian received a communication.
The Izel alien fleet has broken through the space orbit and is landing.
General Tang was killed in the orbital defense battle.
Muli is about to turn into a sea of fire.
Lothar gazed at the Fountain of Stars in the night sky, and he knew that what followed would be a hopeless battle.
He saw the worry and anxiety on his companions' faces. How many companions had they lost? This liberation movement might be a foolish act that wasted lives.
He recalled the sarcastic advice to surrender from Marriott's supervisor. If you come and surrender in person, perhaps that gentleman will show mercy to Mulley's men, and may even release Tita.
Master Diesel thinks you're funny, and Director Marriott says that what he wants most is fun toys. Be sensible, and maybe some of your friends will live longer.
From the beginning, Diesel treated their rebellion as a harmless entertainment.
Can my sacrifice really save my companions? Lothar thought.
Or is this just a bunch of beautiful lies, waiting for me to fall into their trap, and then my partners will continue to struggle in endless hell. The company's sweet talk has always been poisonous honey.
Tita, Muli, Lianna, and other companions...
The bottle beside him swayed slightly, and the letter inside the bottle shone brightly in the starlight.
Losa picked up the bottle and pulled out the new letter.
After a moment, he stood up and walked towards the camp, saying to his comrades: "I have received guidance from the Star Spring."
His comrades gathered around and gazed at him with respect.
"It's hope," said Lothar.
He held the letter tightly in his hand, and the ink on the letter was clearly visible.
【I saw your victory a thousand years later. 】
【——Liu Xingquan】
