As soon as he returned to Chen Shihan's fleet, he saw Chen Shihan's pretty face that was not very good.

"What's wrong? Did something go wrong? Liu Nianfeng asked with a smile.

"Your rabbit is cute, can you give it to me?" Chen Shihan looked at the little milk rabbit in Liu Nianfeng's arms and said.

"I want you to buy one yourself, don't bother my idea!" Liu Nian Feng protected this little milk rabbit in his arms, Chen Shihan looked at this little rabbit that was tightly attached to Liu Nian Feng with some envy, and said with a long sigh, "We have a new task!" ”

"What task?" Liu Nianfeng asked curiously.

"Go and escort a group of criminals away!" Chen Shihan said.

"Escorting a group of criminals away?" Liu Nianfeng was stunned for a moment, and then learned the whole thing from Chen Shihan's mouth.

It turned out that two hours ago, Chen Shihan was called by Marshal Xiye, and Marshal Xiye gave Chen Shihan a sudden task.

I don't know if the person in charge of the evacuation accidentally forgot it, or someone deliberately forgot it, all in all, just a few family members suddenly rushed to Marshal Xiye, and Marshal Xiye's crying said that some of their relatives were still in the occupied area and had not been rescued, begging Marshal Xiye to save their relatives.

This also frightened Marshal Xiye, because the humans in the occupied area had either died in the hands of the star beasts, or had already retreated in an orderly manner, how could anyone stay in the occupied area and not retreat?

After some careful questioning by Marshal Dawn Night, it turned out that these people trapped in the occupied area were not ordinary humans, but a group of criminals, a group of extremely special criminals.

Before, Chen Shihan and Liu Nianfeng were worried that they would be locked up on the ore planet to mine...... This is not alarmist, in fact, almost every year, a large number of law-breaking criminals are sent to various ore planets to mine. In a large star area like the Yizhou Star Region, there are naturally many ore planets used to imprison criminals.

In order to ensure that criminals do not escape from these ore planets, the location of each ore planet is highly secret, and the person who is not specially managing this area absolutely does not know the location of the ore planet. Moreover, the transportation of these planets is also tightly sealed, and the stargates that connect these planets are different from other stargates.

The other interstellar gates are left open for a long time, and can be passed through as soon as they arrive.

However, the interstellar gates that connect these ore planets only open when the weekly transport warships that are responsible for transporting prisoners and supplies arrive, and the rest of the time they are closed.

This not only ensured that the prisoners could not escape from the ore planet, but also completely sealed off the ore planet, becoming one isolated island after another in the universe.

Although these humans staying on the ore planet are all criminals, since they will be locked up on this ore planet, they are not death row criminals, and they will be released after the sentence expires, and they also have certain human rights, and they need to protect the lives of these criminals.

In fact, it is true that in the past, when large-scale battles would affect these ore planets, the government would temporarily transport the criminals to a safe place to ensure the safety of these criminals' lives.

But this time, I don't know where there was a mistake, an ore planet was actually forgotten when it was evacuated, as many as more than 80,000 criminals and more than 5,000 guards, all of whom were left on that planet and have not been transferred.

And when the relatives of these guards found that they had cut off communication with them and had not been transferred out for a long time, they found Marshal Xiye and begged Marshal Xiye to send someone to rescue their relatives...... If their relatives are already dead, then it is better to tell them the news of death, and don't let them continue to wait so anxiously.

Marshal Xiye attached great importance to this, so he immediately ordered Chen Shihan to lead his fleet to that vast planet. If the ore planet has been destroyed in the hands of the Star Beast, then leave a detailed video and report it back.

If people are still alive, then bring them all back, which sounds like a very simple task.

But the problem is that now this ore planet is in the fallen area where star beasts are rampant, if one accidentally meets a star beast, it will not be fun, because Chen Shihan's fleet is going in alone, and there is no support for Chen Shihan, once he meets a star beast, even if it is the most rubbish star beast, Chen Shihan may die there.

Of course, if you don't encounter the Star Beast along the way, it's a fairly easy and safe mission, and you'll be rewarded with 2,000 Battle Exploits and 20,000 Battle Resource Points when you return.

According to past experience, it is estimated that the probability of Chen Shihan encountering the starry beast is about 10%.

"What do you think??" After the detailed description, Chen Shihan asked Liu Nianfeng?

"I think it's good!" Liu Nianfeng nodded, "The thing I'm most worried about now is that my identity is exposed, and if we stay by Marshal Xiye's side all the time, the danger of exposure will be too great, so it's better for us to carry out this mission." When you come back from completing this mission, your half-month battle rotation period will come to an end, and we can return to Heavenly Court. As soon as we return to Heavenly Court, we will be completely safe! ”

"Good! Then I'll go to the marshal and tell her that I'm willing to accept the task! After listening to Liu Nianfeng's words, Chen Shihan's heart finally calmed down a little, and he nodded and said.

————————————————

"Control the warning radius of the destroyer to a distance of 2 million kilometers, don't follow the warning radius of 10 million kilometers in the code, we must compress our existence to a minimum, so as to reduce the possibility of meeting with the star beast!" After getting out of the state of faster-than-light navigation, Liu Nianfeng instructed Chen Shihan.

At this time, the entire fleet was already in the fallen zone, and there might be star beasts around at any time, so Liu Nian Feng had to compress his existence to a minimum so as not to be discovered by the star beasts.

"Flowing Nian Feng! Look at the meteorite belt up ahead! I remember that the map says that there are no meteorite belts around here! When the fleet was halfway through, Chen Shihan suddenly pointed to a meteorite belt not far ahead with some surprise and said.

It is a circular meteorite belt, and the whole meteorite belt seems to be expanding outward, and it looks full of vitality, like ripples on the surface of the water.

"Nope! This is not some meteorite belt, this is the West Springs Star !! Liu Nianfeng's voice was a little low.

"What! You said this is the West Spring Star!! Chen Shihan was taken aback by Liu Nianfeng's words, looked at the three-dimensional map in front of him, and said in disbelief: "How can this be?" Isn't Westspring a good habitable planet? How did it come to be...... Obviously, when evacuating, Xiquan Star was still fine!! ”

At this moment, in a location marked by a red dot on the map, there is a sea-blue planet quietly suspended there, showing the appearance of this planet.

"It seems that this West Spring Star has been attacked by the Star Beast after we evacuated!" Liu Nian Feng sighed and said, "Don't forget, the Star Beast is an existence that feeds on the stars, most of these Xiquan Stars have entered the stomach of the Star Beast, these scattered meteorites are just another part of them, and the entire Xiquan Star is completely finished." ”

"......" Chen Shihan stopped talking, and it wasn't until this moment that she realized that the planet that seemed to be extremely solid was actually just an extremely fragile existence.

——————————————

"Alice, what's wrong with you? Do you look bad? After finishing the communication with Chen Shihan, Liu Nianfeng turned around and found that Alice's face beside him was a little pale.

"It's okay...... I just remembered something from the past......" Alice smiled reluctantly.

Liu Nianfeng didn't ask anything more, because Liunian Feng already understood what Alice remembered, when Alice was still extremely young, her planet also became a meteorite belt like today, and the tragic situation of Xiquan Star obviously reminded Alice of the unbearable memories of the year.

"Shihan, let's speed up, Xiquan Star is not far from the location of the Xiquan Interstellar Gate, if the Xiquan Star is destroyed, then the Xiquan Interstellar Gate may also be ......" Liu Nianfeng said to Chen Shihan with some concern.

"Got it! Let's get going! Chen Shihan nodded, and the fleet accelerated again, and after increasing the speed to the extreme, it began to quickly move towards the Xiquan Interstellar Gate.

"Admiral, I have a suggestion, we can first send the fastest destroyer in our team, the Xili, let her rush to the Xiquan Stargate one step ahead of time, and reconnoiter the situation there, if the Xiquan Stargate has been completely destroyed, let's turn around and leave immediately, and we can also save a lot of time, so as not to encounter unnecessary dangers!" Avria suggested to Liu Nianfeng.

"Very good advice! That's it! Liu Nianfeng nodded, the Xiquan Star Gate is still 130 million kilometers away from the Xiquan Star, and it will take about 12 hours to reach it at the current 24-knot fleet speed.

And if the Xili exerts its speed to the extreme, then it can have a speed of about 65 knots, and it will be able to reach the Xiquan Interstellar Gate in about five hours, and the distance between the two should be less than 100 million kilometers at that time, so that it is still within the contact range of the Ghost Loop, and Liu Nian Feng can know the situation of the Xiquan Interstellar Gate for the first time through the Ghost Loop.

After receiving the order of Liu Nian Feng, the Yuli directly broke away from the fleet and sailed forward quickly, and after more than five hours, the Xili came with the exact news.

It's just that I don't know if this news is good news or bad news.

The reason why this is good news is because the Xiquan Star Gate is still intact and has not been damaged by the Star Beast.

But this is bad news because the West Springs Stargate is closed at this time, and the entire Stargate is empty, not even a single staff member, and no one can control this Stargate.
