Chapter Twenty-Six: Something Happened

But it didn't wait for Lillian to make a second major build. This guy was appointed by Reuter to lead a team to escort the cargo ship that was trading with the Moon Roundabout. When I didn't go over, I brought Nagato and Mutsu with me. After all, cargo ships also have naval guns. Plus it's flying. There are basically no problems.

In addition, it is time to start preparing for the active deep-sea period in the autumn. However, Luke reckoned that there were a few of them here this time. There shouldn't be any major problems. Maybe you'll see a few of them in the south. Those deep seas will be scared and obedient.

Maybe it's a possibility. When the time comes, let those deep seas watch the excavation bases overseas for him. I'm not afraid that someone will go in and make trouble.

Unfortunately, this is just a thought. God knows how those deep seas will react when they see the south. Didn't Fuso say it before? At the beginning, Spring Rain and the others were fighting with another batch of deep seas.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for her to take advantage of it alone. Otherwise, you won't be able to pick up the expulsion of Qihime.

For another deep-sea invasion to come. Luke was relieved. After all, summer is the biggest this time. They've all made it through. This time, not only is there a large number of ship girls. And there are several more modified ship mothers. There is basically no need to worry too much about the attack of the deep sea.

Now he is most concerned about building the excavation base in the west of Star Island. There's a vein of rare metals over there. It was a resource he desperately needed. And it's also the closest to the base.

Other excavation bases. To be honest, Luke was already thinking about whether to hand over the excavation base directly to William and them to manage. It's far away from that. And he didn't have so many people to take care of so many excavation bases.

It just so happens that several veins over there are also some ordinary iron ore and the like. Nothing special. There was no problem handing it over to William. Anyway, digging the base is basically a fool's operation. Give them a manual and you're done.

Excavate the parts that have been prepared before. There were also some scattered materials that were all brought onto the ship. Luke was going to build a new excavation base on the Serena. But at this point. The phone in his pocket rang suddenly.

Take it out and take a look. But it was Lillian who called. Didn't she go to escort the delivery ship? What's wrong with the sudden call. Lillian has only been there for two days. According to the speed of transportation on the side of the lunar roundabout. It is estimated that I will not be able to come back in a week. This guy won't be idle and call him to chat.

"Hey. Lillian you ......"

Rumble. Luke just wanted to ask Lillian what she was going to do on the phone. As a result, the roar of naval guns was heard from the earpiece. It seems to be the naval guns of Nagato and Mutsu. Sounds like they're at war with someone.

I can still vaguely hear some screams. and some beast-like roars. Alienated people. The thought immediately popped into Luke's head. Those roars. It's definitely those alienated people.

Worst. Lilian and the others are probably being targeted by the aliens on the other side of Moon Ring Island. Come to think of it. Luke chuckled in his heart. It's fine if it's one or two alienated people. Nagato, the two of them will definitely be able to handle it.

But listen to the voice over there. It's not one or two that can be described at all. Except for the sound of cannons. Beyond the screams. It's the roar of those things.

Have those people created an army of aliens? That's what I was thinking. There was also an intermittent sound coming from inside the earpiece. Luke ...... Too...... Too much ......" just heard Lillian say a few words. There was a roar. Then the contact was interrupted.

It seems that something is blocking the communication of the phone. Luke hurriedly called up the real-time situation over there through the satellite. I saw a layer of rich black atmosphere. At this time, it has already permeated the southern part of the Moon Roundabout. At the same time, the rest of the Moon Ring Island also has this black atmosphere.

This is the breath of the deep sea. See this layer of black clouds. Luke immediately thought of the black aura of the deep sea. But then I realized that there seemed to be something different. In the midst of these black clouds. There was also a hint of bright red blood. The black fog is also constantly rolling. Is it composed of some terrifying patterns.

There is such a thick black aura barrier. It's impossible to see what's going on down through satellites. But the only thing that can be known is. I'm afraid that there will be a big problem on the Moon Roundabout Island this time.

Seeing that it has become this virtue over there. Where can Luke still sit still. "Ripple. Agano. From the clouds and Tianjin wind. A few of you prepare. We'll go to the Moon Roundabout now. Fuso. The home will be handed over to you. ”

William, that guy. It's really unreliable. No. The same cannot be said either. I can only say that he is a little too unlucky. I remember that this time he sent some permanent personnel over. But I'm afraid I experienced this incident. It is not certain whether the few people who were sent over are still alive.

"Okay." Fuso nodded. Seeing Luke's expression, she knew that this time it might not be so simple. But before he could suggest to Luke that he drive the Ettila over. Luke had already rushed towards the place where the aircraft was parked with the others.

The speed of the Attila was not slow, though. But compared to that small flying machine. The speed is still a little lacking. Large ships after all. It took at least nearly an hour to fly over the Attila.

But in the words of that flying machine. It will fly by in about a quarter of an hour. That's why Luke didn't choose to drive the Attila over.

I saw Luke leave with Lian and a few people. Ashigara was also a little worried, and glanced at Fuso. Let's hope there won't be any major problems this time. Hope.

……

"Luke. Cargo One is not far ahead of us. Congyun frowned. Cargo One was suddenly spotted on the radar. Let her always have a bad premonition.

"Hmm. Is it. Maybe Lillian and the others have escaped. "Although it says so. But Luke also had no bottom in his heart. If they had just escaped. At the speed of Cargo One. I don't think I'm here yet.

It is now directly above the deep-sea current. At the speed of Cargo One. They've been flying for at least fifteen minutes. Lillian's call had come ten minutes earlier. Something is clearly wrong.

And two days. The cargo on the cargo ship must not have been moved yet. The speed of Cargo One is going to be reduced even more. In other words, the cargo ship flew out about twenty minutes ago.

Think about it this way. Luke's heart sank. There must be something wrong with this cargo ship.

"Send a message to the other person. Let them open the hatch above. Let's go inside. "The cargo ship has a reserved hatch on it. The cargo can be hoisted in from above. You can also let the aircraft they are piloting now land.

If the cargo ship doesn't have a problem. Definitely going to let them in. Think so. Luke looked at Congyun next to him and waited for news from the other party. At the same time, he controlled the aircraft and flew above the cargo ship. As long as the hatch is open. He'll be able to land immediately.

"No, I can't. There was no response. "It didn't take a few seconds. Congyun frowned and shouted.

Hear this. Luke's face immediately turned black. I thought I would hand over the ship to William and them. There should be no problem. It turned out to be only a few days. Someone from William's side came over to learn to drive. But that's less than a week. It turns out that something is happening now. Luke didn't even know what to say.

"Then get ready. I'm going down. Luke said. Directly controlled the aircraft and landed on the top of the cargo ship. Directly opened the hatch of the aircraft and jumped down. Directly find the reserved working channel port. The one who opened the hatch jumped in.

He drew the entire ship's design. Naturally, he knew the interior of the ship inside and out. After running out of the work tunnel, I ran straight to the cab.

Inside the cargo ship, there is only a quarters for the driver to rest. It's a big living room-like room. He glanced at it as he passed by. There wasn't a single one in it. It's the same in the dormitory. The only place where there can be people is the cab. After all, cargo ships are in addition to these few places. It's the large cargo compartment in the rear.

Press the switch on the access control. Luke rushed in. It's a pity that there is only one driver inside. Lillian and Nagato weren't here. The people sent by William this time who were responsible for collecting news on the Moon Ring Island were no longer there. There was also a co-pilot of a cargo ship who was also missing.

"They're human. Why did you come back alone. "See this. Luke immediately dragged the driver out of his seat. Shouted at him.

"You. What are you doing. Let go. "Seeing Luke who suddenly appeared here. The driver was also panicked. Naturally, he knew Luke. It was Luke who was in charge of teaching them driving techniques that day. How could it not be recognized.

"I asked you where the rest were."

Boom. Luke waved his hand and threw the guy against the wall. The sharp pain made the guy panic. His face was also grinning in pain.

"It's none of my business. They were all dead. That's not something we can resist at all. The driver sat on the ground and struggled back towards his seat. It was as if the composite seat could provide him with some protection.

". Now drive the boat back for me. Luke cried out through gritted teeth. It doesn't matter if Lillian is alive or dead now. He's going to go back and see. If they're alive. I'm definitely going to bring them back. You can't sit on the plane. Then there is only this cargo ship.

"Nope. I'm not going back. I don't want to die. "Hear Luke say that. The driver suddenly shouted with horror on his face.

"If you don't sail, you'll get out of my boat. The coalition doesn't need a soft egg like you. ”

"You forced me." Luke was heard exclaiming. The driver's eyes were red. He drew a pistol from under his seat and pointed it at Luke's head.
