When he reached the door of the control room, Silin turned around and said to the others, "As the vice-captain, I'm handing over the control of this starship and the command of this operation to Eudy."
Although the hierarchy among the Hunters was not as strict as the military, they still had to follow the rules at critical times. Otherwise, it would be a mess. Therefore, when the situation was serious, everyone would consciously follow the orders of the "supreme commander".
But now, when they heard Silin say this, they were a little confused.
Handing over control at the last minute? Why?
Since Silin had handed over the command to Eudy, they would have to follow Eudy's orders for the rest of the operation. It was obvious that the starship behind them was not to be trifled with.
"But vice-captain …" Kari chased after him, ready to get to the bottom of it.
But Silin did not say anything. He pressed a button, and the door to the control room closed before Kari could reach it.
When Kari opened the door again, Silin had already taken the elevator to the spaceplane's parking lot.
Silin looked in the direction of the starship behind them. He could sense the person on that starship.
They would meet sooner or later, but Silin did not expect Oskulos to come so soon.
From the looks of it, the Fog or Wushe's people must have cooperated with Oskulos and attracted some of the military's attention. That was why Oskulos was able to shake off the military and come to Silin.
After picking a small spaceplane and taking a few energy stones with him, Silin quickly checked its weapons and equipment before flying out of the starship.
Although the firepower of a small spaceplane was not as fierce as that of a large spaceplane, it was more agile. Large spaceplanes required too much firepower and were not suitable for a single person to control.
On the starship behind them.
"That kid went out."
The person who spoke was the person Silin and Huimao had talked about not long ago. It was the person who had brushed past Silin in the passage of the prison. Beside him was the woman with the blue blade that Silin had met before.
Oskulow chuckled as he leisurely sipped on his recliner. He finished his drink, stood up, and walked out of the room.
Not long after, an aircraft left the starship and chased after Silin.
Inside the starship of the Sixth Division.
Everyone in the control room saw Silin fly away from the starship. Tico and Eudy looked worriedly at the flying craft that was getting further and further away from them and sighed.
"Sigh, I say, what is Silin thinking? Also, who are those people behind us? "Kari was almost going crazy.
"Now is not the time." Eudy turned to look at the main control panel in the control room. "Do not slow down or land on a nearby planet. Raise the energy shield and activate the thrusters to the maximum. Return to the base at full speed!"
Silin had told Eudy not to slow down or land on a nearby planet. It would be suicidal to stop and fight. That was why Eudy had ordered his team members to return at full speed. Otherwise, they would not be able to stop the people behind them.
Kari grabbed Eudy's collar and shouted, "Can't you f * cking tell us why?! Is it fun to keep everyone in the dark?! F * ck! "
Eudy looked at Kari expressionlessly and pushed Kari's hand away. "I'm just completing the mission given to me by the vice-captain and bringing everyone back to the base safely."
"What the f * ck are you talking about?!"
Kari angrily kicked the chair beside his feet. The chair hit the wall and shattered into pieces.
Bang bang bang!
The attacks from behind were still fierce. Although the starship had an energy shield to protect it, the impact of the energy shield still caused it to sway.
"F * ck, who are they? Do we have to keep running back to the base like this?! "
Kari was not the only one who thought this way. Many others were thinking the same thing. It was too useless to return to the base in such a sorry state. The people of Vanguard were beaten to this state, and they did not even fight back. How shameful would it be if word got out!
Seeing that everyone's emotions were gradually becoming unstable, there were signs that they wanted to fly out and fight or find a place to fight. Eudy finally relented. After all, it would be counterproductive to keep them in the dark too much.
"'Mist' or 'Wushe', which one do you think you can fight?" Eudy looked at Kari and the others.
As soon as Eudy said this, the control room fell silent.
'Mist' or 'Wushe', who could they fight?
Not even one of them!
It was not that they were afraid of death, but they were afraid that their death would not be worth it. Bravery did not mean that they would be sending themselves to death.
Eudy glanced at everyone and turned back. "Follow my orders just now. Return at full speed!"
This time, no one was angry. They consciously did their own things. Doing their own things was the greatest help to the team.
Cary took a few deep breaths and suppressed his emotions that were on the verge of bursting out. He asked, "Then Cillin, he …"
"He has his own plans." Eudy did not say anything else. He opened the star map and looked at it. From time to time, he would give instructions on the route of the starship.
Looking at the other party's flight, it was obvious that they had done some analysis of the area. Eudy did not expect to be able to get rid of the people behind them. He only wanted to return to the base safely. Silin had said that the other party knew about the existence of the base. The bio-human incident last time was also caused by the other party. This time, even if their team did not come out, those people would still attack the base. When they sent the mutant aircraft, they did not use biochemical bombs or other long-lasting bombs. Instead, they only used ordinary high-energy bombs. It was for the sake of the base.
When he answered Kari's question, there was one thing that Eudy did not say.
Star Hunter Oskulos. A person of that level would be too much of a blow to the morale of the military. Just the Mist and Wushe alone would put a lot of pressure on them. Adding Oskulos to the mix, Eudy suspected that some people would be more passive. Therefore, even though Eudy could see that some people had questions about the aircraft, he only changed the topic.
When Eudy first heard Silin's thoughts, he was shocked. No one knew why someone of Oskulos's level would keep an eye on Silin.
Silin piloted the aircraft and flew to a planet that he had already chosen. This planet was one of the two underdeveloped B-grade planets that the Sixth Division had discovered when they were searching for a foothold. According to Silin's analysis of the planet's environment and species, he had the highest chance of survival on that planet.
Silin had considered taking out Oskulos's aircraft in space, but Oskulos was a Star Hunter. Not only was he experienced, but he also had better materials and tools than Silin. Although Silin used the special energy ore that he had discovered before, which could increase the defense of his energy shield by several levels, Oskulos's energy shield had to be undamaged. Once he left Vanguard's territory, Silin's chances of turning the tables would be even slimmer. Therefore, when he was simulating the route, Silin decisively chose that planet.
As long as he could buy some time, Huimao and the others would come to his aid. By then, Silin's life would be spared. After all, Oskulos was still alone in this place.
As Silin calculated his next course of action, he dodged the attacks from Oskulos's aircraft.
That being said, the spaceplane's attack was nothing more than Oskulos's amusement. He wasn't counting on it to destroy Cillin's spaceplane, not to mention that he wasn't expecting it to.
Although he did not plan to kill Silin in space this way, Oskulos did not want Silin to run too far away. He did not have much patience.
Oskulos looked at Silin's aircraft and pressed a button on the side of his hand.
A series of rivet-like objects flew out. There were nine of them in total, and they were all aimed at Silin's aircraft. They were highly sensitive tracking devices. Silin managed to dodge eight of them, but he was still hit by one.
The rivet-like object could absorb energy and attach it to the energy shield, speeding up the loss of energy.
It seemed that Okuro could not wait any longer. After being chased by the military for so long, Oskulos was not in a good mood.
Cillin did some calculations as he stared at the energy display that was rapidly decreasing. Then, he piloted the spaceplane to avoid yet another round of energy absorption rivets.
Finally, he saw the planet. Silin was about to adjust the controls and land when there was a sudden boom. Two more rivets were attached to the aircraft.
At this rate of energy loss, there was no way Cillin could reach the desired landing spot.
Han Xiao landed the aircraft in a forest with great difficulty. He had no idea how many branches the aircraft had scraped off, but the tree branches shook the aircraft violently.
Before the aircraft came to a complete stop, Silin jumped out of the emergency hatch and ran into the forest.
Oskulos's aircraft landed on a high ground next to the forest.
The hatch opened, and Oskulos walked out of the aircraft. He was still in the same outfit that Silin had first seen him in. Looking at the forest and the aircraft that had just stopped, Oskulos jumped down. He was falling from a cliff that was more than five hundred meters high, but he did not seem to be falling freely.
Oskulos looked in the direction of the forest and waved his hand. His footsteps changed. His speed did not change, but his direction changed. He followed Oskulos's footsteps and landed in that direction.
Celine, who was running, felt a wave of telekinesis that was rushing towards him at high speed. Silin had only ever felt a wave of telekinesis like this from Gadar.
It was too fast. Silin had already pushed his speed to the limit, but the people behind him were quickly closing the distance between them.
No wonder Gadar had said that escaping from Oskulos would be difficult.
Sensing the rapidly closing distance, Silin pulled out his gun, but before he could turn the gun, the barrel was snapped in half.
Silin felt like he had been punched by a giant fist. He slammed into the stone wall behind him, and his whole body sunk into it.
Before Celine could react, he was grabbed by the neck and dragged out of the stone wall. His feet left the ground.
Oskulos grabbed Silin's neck and lifted him up. He looked at the bleeding head and body of Silin and said slowly, "I'm sorry to have kept you alive for so long."
Bang!
Silin was smashed again, but this time, he was not smashed into the stone wall. Instead, he was forced into the ground.
Cillin's physical fitness was pretty good. Many A-rank combatants could not compare to Cillin's physical strength. However, even with such a strong body, Oskulos had managed to shatter many of his bones with just one hit, and his muscles looked like they had been forcefully torn apart.
Oskulos was obviously very experienced. He knew which bones to break and which could incapacitate a person.
Gadar had also said that Oskulos was a person who liked to torture and kill.
Silin listened to the sound of his bones being crushed, but the immense pain did not stop Silin's train of thought. In fact, every time the chip was activated, the pain was no better than when his bones were crushed.
When Oskulos crushed someone's bones, he would make sure to preserve the nerves so that they could better transmit the sensation of pain.
"You don't seem to mind this level of pain," Oskulos said slowly.
Oskulow was very dissatisfied with the fact that Cillin did not scream or scream in pain. A thin knife about the width of a finger protruded from Oskulos's wrist.
"Actually, I really hate Gadar. He wants to replace me, but he never does it himself. He likes to use other people to deal with me. What I don't understand is that with the style of that old faker, Zada, he would waste his energy on you this time and let me be pestered by the military for so long. Tell me, how am I going to repay this debt? "
Oskulos spoke like he was meeting an old friend, but he was swinging his knife at Silin.
Inside the Sixth Division's base.
Huimao and Sigma were arguing about a design, and Xueqiu had joined in and pointed at them. Czedow didn't have the time to interrupt them at all.
However, Huimao suddenly froze. Every hair on his body stood on end, and his eyes became as deep as a whirlpool in the ocean.
Sigma, who was still explaining its reasons, suddenly stopped talking when it noticed Huimao's abnormality. Beside them, Xueqiu and the Miantuan backed away in unison. They felt like something was wrong with Huimao right now. It was as if he was about to start a massacre at any moment.
The instincts of animals were very sensitive. The small Lovaga Beasts that had been jumping around suddenly left the area and sought refuge with the big Lovaga Beasts.
It was at this moment Eudy's starship finally arrived at the base planet.
Alarms blared all over the base, and everyone quickly entered combat mode. This time, however, the Lovags didn't come out. Instead, they hid inside their nests. The little Lovags trembled uncontrollably and squeezed themselves against the big Lovags as if it gave them a sense of security.
Since they were prepared beforehand, they moved quickly and efficiently. Shotton ordered his men to cover Eudy's landing and attack the starship at the same time. They absolutely couldn't let them land here.
Fortunately, the starship didn't try to force its way in. It simply circled around the perimeter.
When Eudy's group finally landed safely, Kari immediately told Shotton about Silin's situation.
"Captain, hurry up and send reinforcements to Silin. Otherwise, he'll be in trouble if he's alone!" Kari volunteered to join the rescue team.
Shotton looked at Eudy. "What did Silin mean?"
Eudy took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "He meant that he should leave first, and then we'll send reinforcements."
Shotton clearly thought deeper than Kari. "Who's chasing Silin?"
"It's … Oskulos …"
"Who's Oskulos?" Kari was confused.
However, Shotton and the other members of the A Team almost jumped up.
"What?! Oskulos? Are you sure? It's … it's that guy? "Shawton pointed above his head. Everyone knew who Shawton was referring to by" that guy ".
Eudy nodded. "That's what Silin said."
"Why would Oskulos have his eyes on Silin? That shouldn't be the case. Oskulos has always had high standards … "someone from the A Team mumbled.
When Eudy heard this, he wanted to kick the person out of the team.
"Captain, now's not the time to talk about this. Hurry up and form a rescue team. I'm afraid Silin will be in trouble if we don't," Eudy urged.
"Hey, who is this Oskulos you're talking about?" Kari was still confused.
Another member of the A Team explained, "Oskulos is the most unique and twisted lone Hunter in the Six Stars of Hunt."
If it was a lone Hunter, then Kari definitely knew about the oddities among the Star Hunters. However, the name Oskulos did not appeal to Kari.
"What?!" Cary was taken aback for a moment before he grabbed Eudy and lifted him up. He roared, "Why the fuck didn't you tell me earlier? He's going to die! "
Kari and Eudy both volunteered to join the rescue team. Although the people from the A Team looked at them with disdain, the two of them ignored them. The problem was that a few old guys were still trying to figure out the cause of the incident.
Dammit, don't you think you deserve to be ignored just because you're from the A Team?! You're just taking advantage of your seniority! If you have the time to figure out the cause of the incident, why don't you just go and save him?!
Xiao Shang and the others from the Sixth Division also wanted to join the rescue team, but Shotton refused. Since they were going to face Oskulos, the most suitable people to join the rescue team were the A Team. Even if the B Team went, they wouldn't be of much help.
While Shawton was commanding the starships wandering outside the planet and setting up a rescue team, a large hole was broken open from the inside out of the base.
At first, Shotton thought that the base was under attack, but when he saw Huimao in his metal form, he told his men to put away their guns and not fire at him.
Huimao let out a loud roar after he jumped out of the hole, and the sound waves almost knocked out the people around him. Thankfully, the sound waves weren't directed at them. They would've died a long time ago if they were.
Huimao's roar was directed at the starship that was circling around the planet. After the roar, all the surveillance screens on the starship turned garbled. When they finally recovered, Huimao let out another roar. This time, however, a beam of white light shot out of Huimao's mouth and headed straight for the starship.
The energy shield that was originally protecting the starship was pierced by this beam of white light, and a large hole appeared in it!
However, it was clear that Huimao wasn't planning to waste time with them.
A pilotless spaceplane flew out of the base on its own.
A figure flashed by and landed next to the spaceplane in just a couple of jumps. No ordinary person possessed that kind of jumping ability.
After Czedow entered the spaceplane, Huimao jumped into it as well.
