Ashes's expression changed. He scanned the expressions of all the Silvers, and the fear in their eyes did not seem to be fake. They really did not know the secret signal.
He almost had a mental breakdown. Luckily, he guessed another possibility in time.
"Do you have other companions?"
The Silvers did not dare not answer. They said in fear, "We — we originally had seventeen people, but two of us were thrown into space during the escort and are dead."
The carrier had kicked the bucket and was thrown into the universe?
The people from DarkStar were dumbfounded. What should they do now? At this time, the mummy of the delivery man had already floated to god knows where. They could not even find him.
Ashes was also stunned. Suddenly, he thought about it. The slave trader must have searched the carrier's clothes. If the carrier did not hide the Secret Message Bead well, it might have been taken away by the slave trader. There was still a chance.
However, this meant that the Silvers saved him for nothing, and he was targeted by Floating Dragon because of this … Ashes' face stiffened, and he felt extremely sad.
If he had known this would happen, he would have gone to the slave trader first, but he did not know that the carrier was in an accident. Saving the carrier first was his usual priority. The carrier belonged to the organization he was cooperating with. After receiving the Secret Message Bead, he would save the carrier if possible. If not, he would kill the carrier. Now, this step was skipped. That damn slave trader completed their job, but the bead was missing. Furthermore, Ashes originally only wanted to steal the carrier secretly. It was all because of this accident that caused such a huge commotion.
In summary, it could be said that he was extremely unlucky!
Ashes was extremely frustrated. He waved his hand, and countless black dust spewed out from the ground, turning into a veil-like curtain that gently covered the pursuing aircraft. There was a shield attached to it, blocking the sight of the aircraft. This layer of dense black dust was all graphite, and the image of the observation device suddenly became distorted and blurred. The aircraft became blind, stumbling and hurriedly decelerating.
"I'll chase. Herlous, don't follow. He can kill you easily." Han Xiao stopped Herlous from jumping off the ship. He did not want this officer that he had spent so much effort to kidnap to fly away.
After breaking through the graphite barrier, Han Xiao took a closer look and was momentarily stunned.
Ashes and the others had used their abilities to escape and disappeared without a trace. Only the Silvers were huddled together, shivering. They were no longer of any use to Ashes, so they were left aside. This would make it easier for him to escape and lower the Dragon Guards' soaring blood pressure.
Only then did the graphite barrier dissipate and fall to the ground. This meant that Ashes had gone far away, and the aircraft was out of the range of his ability.
"He ran so fast. He was gone in an instant." Herlous was surprised. Just as he was about to give the order to continue the chase, Han Xiao suddenly raised his hand and stopped him. "Don't chase. There's no need."
"Why? Is it okay to let them escape?"
"I told you we wouldn't be able to catch up to them." Han Xiao's eyes flashed. "Didn't you notice? These thugs helped us a lot!"
Everyone was stunned. They followed Han Xiao's finger and looked at the Silvers on the ground. They were all surprised.
That's right! Our hiring mission is to save the Silvers!
After so many twists and turns, the Silvers were saved in an unexpected way, and they even fell into his hands. Han Xiao would not let go of this opportunity. The most difficult part of rescuing the Silvers was Horlaide, and this problem that had troubled Han Xiao for a long time was solved in such a way. He even felt like thanking DarkStar. When the sandpiper and the clam fought, the fisherman benefited.
Han Xiao's words were more effective than Wilsander's. Everyone listened to his order and stopped chasing. Very soon, the other players' aircraft arrived and protected the Silvers again.
Wilsander requested for communication and said, "The other thugs have been captured. Only the ones you were chasing are left. What's the situation?"
Han Xiao shook his head. "They escaped. One of them is very strong."
"Why are you the only ones with problems? If this spreads out, those outsiders will question the authority of our guards, and more and more people will challenge us. It will threaten the security of the floating island and destroy the stability of the residents. The long-lasting balance will be broken, and the world will be in chaos. Sigh, the consequences are unimaginable. When Her Excellency Ames comes back, my position in her heart will collapse," Wilsander complained.
Han Xiao's mouth twitched. Don't you have any idea? Your image in Ames' heart is already collapsing …
He did not have the heart to break Wilsander's fantasy. Then, they would not be able to play with each other anymore. In fact, lifeforms at their level were like paramecia in Ames' eyes, and subordinates were paramecia raised by her … It seemed like he was also looking down on himself.
Han Xiao interrupted Wilsander's complaints and said, "It's okay. I know who they are."
At this moment, a new idea popped up in his mind. The reason why Ember was so fearless was because he had done a very good job of keeping his identity a secret. However, he did not know that his identity had already been known by Han Xiao. When his identity was exposed, he would definitely be confused and would not be able to figure out which part of the plan had gone wrong.
Since he was the only one who knew this information, he could do something in secret and reveal Dark-star's identity to Floating Dragon Island. Coincidentally, Ames was not in a good mood recently. If a super strong person targeted them, Han Xiao felt bad for Dark-star just thinking about it.
Dark-star did not want to get into trouble? That's okay. Let me help them get into trouble. After all, we are men who have worn the red scarf before, and the purpose of service is to help others.
Because of the Mutation Disaster, Dark-star was definitely his enemy, so he was very happy.
Furthermore, Han Xiao made a new discovery. Even Ashes was sent out. These Silvers must have a big secret. Dark-star is preparing to make a big news!
He asked the Silvers who were still in shock, listened to the whole story, and grasped a few key points. First, Dark-star did not want to save all the Silvers but a specific person. Second, this person must have contacted Dark-star in advance, or else he would not have given the secret signal. He must be a secret worker, and his companions did not know his identity. Third, one of the two Silvers who died early was Dark-star's target. Ashes retreating at the last minute did not mean that he had given up. There must be a next step. Fourth, this should not be the first time something like this had happened.
Connecting these points, Han Xiao sharply smelled the scent of a conspiracy. Since Dark-star was so serious and secretive, this matter must be very important to Dark-star. He suddenly had an idea. If he could secretly destroy Dark-star's plan, not only would he be able to annoy Dark-star, he might even be able to get something out of it.
Furthermore, the enemy was in the light, and he was in the dark. This was his biggest advantage. It should be fine to help him in his heart.
The only problem was that he did not know what Dark-star wanted to do. He lacked too much information. He started to plan in his heart.
…
The guards cleaned up the ruins of the slave market, and the unconscious people were carried to the side. Horlaide's eyelids trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes. He finally woke up.
Horlaide raised his head and looked around blankly. Then, he stared straight at the ruins in front of him and slowly recognized the familiar silhouette. His mouth gradually widened, and his expression gradually became horrified.
Then, a scream that almost pierced the eardrums of the people around him soared into the sky!
"Ah —"
The guards next to him hurriedly covered their ears and clicked their tongues in wonder.
"Oh, this high pitched voice is comparable to Soul Blast."
After screaming, Horlaide collapsed on the ground. His heart ached and he twitched, and he almost suffocated.
He still remembered the last scene before he fainted. He was sitting on his luxurious chair, drinking a drink, and feeling excited about the huge sum of money that he was bound to get. However, when he closed his eyes and opened them again, his home was gone. He suddenly became a pauper and fell from heaven to hell in an instant.
His mentality collapsed into pieces!
"What exactly happened? How did my home become like this?! " Horlaide's gorgeous clothes were covered in dust. He hurriedly grabbed the guard next to him and questioned with a trembling voice.
The guard explained everything. Knowing that the enemy was captured, Horlaide's eyes lit up. He hurriedly asked, "What about my slaves? Where are they? Give them back to me! "
At this time, a righteous voice sounded from the side.
"Horlaide, don't worry, I will definitely capture all the slaves for you and minimize your losses!"
Horlaide immediately looked over and was pleasantly surprised.
The one who spoke just now was Han Xiao. He strode over, and all the players followed beside him. Behind them, all the slaves, including the Silvers, followed closely.
These slaves were all rescued by the guards. Han Xiao had just discussed with Wilsander and obtained the authority to gather all the slaves.
"These are all my slaves." Horlaide was overjoyed.
Han Xiao's face was full of righteousness. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, if I find a slave, I'll return him to you immediately. After all, we're colleagues that won't be exchanged for money."
"Do you still need to find them? You brought the slaves here. Give them back to me." Horlaide was shocked.
Han Xiao widened his eyes, looked around, and ignored him. "Where are the slaves? Just tell me, I will definitely capture them for you. "
"Don't play dumb, they are right behind you!" Horlaide was anxious.
"Behind me?" Han Xiao looked back with a confused face, shook his head, and said, "The ones wearing shackles and collars are the slaves. I only see a group of free people. Where are the slaves you mentioned?"
Horlaide finally understood Han Xiao's intention. His face changed, and he almost exploded in anger.
