Chapter 519 Assassination
Previously, it was simply transferred to a neighboring planet with higher security, which was easy to handle.
It is easy to imagine how difficult it is to cross the sea of stars and bring everyone back safely this time.
When everything was arranged and they were about to set off, Meng Ke asked Lei Hu, "Is there something wrong with that planet?"
It’s easier to deal with it if you know it in advance.
But obviously not, if it were, the military would have told her in advance.
"This year's storms are probably stronger than usual. To be on the safe side, it's better to bring everyone back first."
"But other than the main ship, the other ships may not be able to withstand the pressure."
"With the 5S mechas leading the way, reaching the nearest habitable planet should be no problem."
"Why didn't you do this last time?"
"We need to take a detour to get to the inhabited planet. If the storm hadn't gotten stronger, the best option would have been to wait until the storm weakened and return directly."
"All right!"
It seems that this is a backup plan, and she plays a supporting role.
Just like last time, Lei Hu did not activate the 3S mecha, but took Meng Ke's 5S mecha instead.
After leaving the area around Qimingxing, Meng Ke frowned when he saw the data on the console: "The radiation storm has increased by half!"
No wonder the military made a temporary adjustment to the plan.
"How far is the planet where the fleet is located from the inhabited planet? Is there a location?"
"I send it to you."
Only Meng Ke can control the 5S mecha. After Lei Hu sent the location to Meng Ke, she synchronized it to the mecha database.
Fortunately, they arrived safely along the way.
The deputy commander was a little surprised when he saw Lei Hu and Meng Ke. There was a lot of energy left over from last time, and he was confident that he could hold on until the storm subsided.
The mecha landed directly inside the main ship, and the deputy commander and a team of men strode over to greet them. "Commander-in-Chief, so far, there have been no casualties, and no further damage to the warship."
"Yes! Send me the personnel status. Anyone with high radiation levels or injured should be transferred to the main ship immediately."
"Yes!"
"The damage rate on these warships is over 30 percent. Transfer all the people inside to other warships."
"Yes!"
The damage rate of more than half of the warships was higher than 30%. The deputy commander had already sensed that this was preparation for transfer, and he only had to obey orders.
But when he heard the commander-in-chief say that all the warships with a damage rate of more than 30% would be placed here and all the people would be taken away, he immediately applied to stay.
This is a military asset, more important than his life. How can he not leave someone to guard it?
Lei Hu frowned: "Follow orders! This is an instruction from the marshal himself."
"Yes!"
The deputy commander was somewhat moved. He was moved by the marshal's concern for the lives of his soldiers, and even more moved by the current strength of the alliance.
History has said that when humans first came to interstellar space, their technology was too backward, and backwardness meant being beaten. Once, a foreign race invaded, and our ancestors fought desperately to drive away the enemy. Knowing that the warships left behind by the enemy had a high probability of self-destructing, they still risked their lives to sneak in. As a result, the warships exploded, and a soldier used special means to save the main control console, but he was blown away and could never be found again.
The deputy commander clenched his fist and no longer mentioned staying, and issued orders one after another.
Even if there is no one guarding here, he will do his best to protect these warships.
While Lei Hu was arranging everything, Meng Ke took a look around the remaining warships. She didn't want to see these warships fall into the hands of criminals.
It would be great if no one had any intention of taking these warships. But if so, I'm sorry, we can only leave them here quietly forever.
As he raised his hand, countless spores invisible to the naked eye flew to every corner and were on the dozens of warships that remained.
After doing all this, Lei Hu sent an order: Get out!
Lei Hu will stay in the main ship, and Meng Ke will drive the 5S mecha alone to lead the way.
To be honest, this mecha looks no different from the 3S mecha from the inside, except that it is larger in size and has incredible firepower.
Let’s put it this way, if she turned around and fought Lei Hu and his team now, she would definitely win.
This is also the reason why her application has not been approved yet, but it should be soon.
Not to mention, carrying the 5S mecha with you wherever you go in the future is pretty cool just thinking about it.
Of course, this is just something we can only think about. We cannot let too many people know about this, otherwise the enthusiasm of various forces for the 5S mecha will be too much for Meng to bear.
Radiation storms are more terrifying than energy storms. After experiencing two peak areas, the soldiers' situation became very grim. They began to suffer from splitting headaches and even attacked their teammates.
Fortunately, Meng Ke brought a lot of high-quality fruits this time. When she felt uncomfortable, she ate the fruits as much as she could, and ate as much as she could as long as her stomach didn't burst.
It was the first time for the soldiers to eat high-quality fruits as a meal. They ate until they were full, which managed to prevent them from completely mutating.
An older soldier lamented, "I never thought that one day I would be able to eat high-quality fruits as a meal."
"Yes!"
His fellow villager and partner next to him sighed. He was ready for a complete mutation, but he didn't expect the captain to take out a mountain of high-quality fruits in the hall and let them sit around and eat them.
The situation in the warship quickly stabilized, but Meng Ke was busy around the fleet.
Now only her 5S mecha dares to travel in the starry sky. In order to prevent the warship from being damaged, she must clear the obstacles first.
Especially during the storm, huge rocks may fly in at any time. If they are not broken in advance, the warships will not be able to reach the habitable planet under such high-speed impact.
Lei Hu gathered the fleet as close as possible to reduce the protective circle, but Meng Ke was still sweating profusely from exhaustion.
In order to avoid accidents, we need to keep as much mental power as possible for emergencies. Meng Ke cooperates with Xiao Xingyun and occasionally manually controls the blasting of thermal weapons.
So when Meng Ke arrived at the residential planet, except for the soreness in his hands, his mental strength was still good.
"Are there any warriors who need urgent purification?"
The highest-level purifier in the fleet is only intermediate-level, and can't be of much use when encountering soldiers with high radiation values.
Lei Hu was communicating with the planetary guard captain who was waiting here. When he heard Meng Ke's words, he turned around and said, "No! You have a good rest. I will escort the main ship back to the base in half an hour."
"Yes!"
Lei Hu and Meng are of the same rank, but in this matter, Lei Hu is the commander-in-chief and Meng has to listen to him.
"Dream General!"
The captain of the Planet Guard obviously knew Meng Ke and gave her a standard military salute.
Dreams can be returned.
She didn't greet this person just now because she was in a hurry. She thought that if there were soldiers who needed purification, she had to act quickly.
Hearing Lei Hu say that everything was fine, he guessed that the fruits and vegetables he brought had worked, and he felt relieved.
After both parties exchanged greetings, Meng Ke prepared to leave without disturbing their conversation.
The captain of the Planet Guard stopped Meng Ke and said, "Lieutenant General, do you have the energy to help the people in the team?"
Meng Ke stopped and asked: "Is anyone in serious condition?"
If the situation is not serious, she will not be needed. Each residential planet is equipped with a purifier. Once they leave, they will not take away the purifiers in the team. Generally, these purifiers can solve the problem.
She has to escort the main ship back to the base later, so she has to leave some spare energy.
"The storm suddenly intensified, and many of the aliens and warriors who went to collect materials from nearby planets were severely exposed to radiation. The purification technicians were overwhelmed. Thirteen people have completely mutated, and five have lost their minds."
Meng Ke looked at Lei Hu. Lei Hu had the final say on how to arrange things.
Lei Hu returned the favor to Meng Ke: "Can you finish the purification today?"
"No problem, but get back to base."
"I used the planetary communication device to request to return to the base tomorrow."
Meng Ke nodded.
The residential planet has a planetary shield. Even though the radiation level on the planet soared due to the storm and the residents did not dare to go out, it did not affect the actions of Lei Hu and Meng Ke.
Meng Ke’s safety is above everything else. This planet is not safe. Lei Hu stays close to Meng Ke and accompanies her to the medical room.
Meng Ke turned around and asked, "Aren't you going to submit your application using the planetary communicator?"
"My adjutant has already taken care of it."
The two walked into the treatment room and saw four men lying on medical beds. Meng Ke frowned. Wasn't she asked to purify those who had completely mutated?
Lei Hu also noticed something was wrong. When he was alert and looking around, he saw the evil grinning face of the doctor who was leading the way in front of the smart door before it was completely closed.
"careful!"
Almost as they shouted this, the familiar scene reappeared, with countless dense crystal needles shooting towards them.
