17: Respectively
"Didn't you say you're no longer a Dragon's Tooth?" Zhang Fan asked.
"Yes." Xu Zhen said lightly.
"Anyway, it's not a clone, and now a lot of clones are following." Fei Buyuan said.
As the Dragon's Tooth's fleet approached, a voice came from the engine room:
"Captain, is that you?"
After a few seconds, Xu Zhen replied:
"It's me."
"Great, Captain, I've finally found you." The person who was talking over there was clearly excited.
"Let's get rid of the clones chasing me first." Xu Zhen said.
"Okay, Captain, all the members of the Dragon's Tooth are waiting for you to go back." Said over there.
Xu Zhen sighed and did not speak again.
There were about thirty warships from the Dragon's Tooth Task Force, heading out to intercept the clone pursuers behind.
They rendezvous with the transports and immediately formed three squadrons, each of which was divided into three squads, and each of the three battleships formed a squadron.
The three brigades were horns and covered each other, forming a firepower strangulation net against the fleet of clones rushing towards them.
The same tactics were followed by three squads in each squadron, up to three ships in the squadron.
The dazzling tactical coordination and skillful combat skills are worthy of the dragon's teeth, what kind of people can join the dragon's teeth? Zhang Fan couldn't help but feel excited.
It didn't take long for the battle to show a one-sided trend, and the transport ship did not slow down, and after Xu Zhen set it up, the transport ship rushed straight to the destination.
……
Orion number 84037, star name: Frontier 3.
This star is relatively close to the battlefield of the Matou Nebula, and it is the main position of human support nearby.
The surface environment of the planet is extremely harsh and unsuitable for human habitation, so humans have built a huge underground structure on Frontier 3.
After being identified by voice, Zhang Fan and the others were able to enter the defensive circle of the Frontier 3, otherwise their clone transport ship would have been shot down.
The transport ship slowly landed in a vertical cave, the cave was more than 300 meters underground, and after the transport ship stopped, the hatch slowly opened, and there was already a group of people waiting outside.
Zhang Fan glanced over and took a closer look at their armbands, these people were basically members of the Dragon's Tooth.
Xu Zhen was the first to walk out of the cabin, and immediately someone surrounded him, shook hands and hugged him, looking very enthusiastic and excited.
Zhang Fan and a few others also stepped out of the cabin, which was a landing platform with solid rocks on all sides.
Suddenly, someone in the crowd said, "Look at that woman...... She has wings. ”
The crowd all looked over this way, their eyes staring at the hibiscus.
Hibiscus looks very reserved, after all, she is a clone, and this is a human base.
Xu Zhen said loudly to everyone:
"These are my friends, don't stare at the little girl, scare people."
Everyone's eyes changed from surprise to friendliness in an instant.
A bald man trotted up to the little hibiscus, looked carefully at the wings of the little hibiscus, and asked curiously:
"Little girl, you ...... Can it fly? ”
Hibiscus nodded, indicating that it was okay.
"Okay, bald, don't scare other girls." Xu Zhen walked to Zhang Fan's side as he spoke, and said softly to Zhang Fan:
"You help Hibiscus cover up, save trouble."
Zhang Fan thought to himself, the wings of the little hibiscus were too ostentatious.
After that, Zhang Fan and his party followed Xu Zhen to a corridor leading to a deeper underground, there were many checkpoints in the corridor, and after passing through several explosion-proof doors, it suddenly dawned in front of them, it was actually an underground city.
The underground here is hollowed out in a large space, about a kilometer high, and about 10 kilometers in length and width.
Rows of houses sit neatly on the ground, and there are some large buildings in the distance.
Zhang Fan and the others were taken to a building, and it can be seen from the furnishings inside that this is used to live in people.
After settling down, Xu Zhen went out with the two soldiers, and Zhang Fan didn't feel inappropriate, after all, he was a big man.
Others sat on the couch in the middle of the room, discussing the future.
……
"Guys, what are you going to do now?" Zhang Fan asked.
"My old man is casual." Old man Jiang said.
"Then I'll follow Grandpa." Hibiscus said.
"What about you?" Zhang Fan asked.
"I followed you, and I rushed you to save the little hibiscus, which is worthy of my follow." Fei Buyuan said.
"What are you doing with me? I don't accept my younger brother. Didn't you go back to the original unit to report? Zhang Fan said speechlessly.
"What original troops, all of them have been wiped out, and all the numbers have been lost." Fei Buyuan said indifferently, but his eyes were full of sadness.
"That's okay," Zhang Fan patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Let's break it together in the future. Alan, what about you? ”
"I'm ......," Alan bowed his head.
"What am I, aren't you here as a tourist? Do you want to continue traveling? Zhang Fan said.
"No need, I want to follow Lao Jiang."
As soon as Alan said this, everyone expressed their surprise, how could such a stuffy gourd think about talking to Old Man Jiang.
"Why?" Zhang Fan asked.
Alan didn't speak, while Old Man Jiang laughed and said:
"Young people, you want to be free."
But Zhang Fan obviously saw that Alan subconsciously glanced at Xiao Hibiscus.
I see.
"So be it," Zhang Fan said.
"I'm going back to Biboxing, old man Jiang, you can also follow me to our hometown to have fun."
"What's there to do in your hometown?" Old man Jiang asked with a nose.
"Specialty clover, you know this." Zhang Fan said.
"What? Is the clover a specialty of yours? Old man Jiang asked in surprise.
"Well, authentic."
"Go, go, you have to go, let me tell you, I've drunk this clover wine before, but I bought it on other planets, it's expensive, go to your place, can I drink it cheaper?"
"Drink it for free." Zhang Fan said heartily.
Old man Jiang patted Zhang Fan's shoulder heavily and said:
"Interesting."
Zhang Fan thought to himself: If it weren't for the little hibiscus following you, you would think I was rare.
After finalizing the next step, Zhang Fan began to think about what would happen after returning to Bibo Star, the first thing was to find Kaizi and Xiaolei Xiaopang.
It's just that I couldn't find a clue for a while, and just thinking about it, Xu Zhen walked in from outside the house.
"Everybody's here."
He seemed to be in a good mood.
"Hmm."
After sitting down, Xu Zhen asked again:
"What's next?"
"Let's all go to Biboxing." Zhang Fan said.
"Well, that's fine, but I have a proposal here, you can consider it." Xu Zhen said.
"What proposal?" Zhang Fan asked.
"Join the Dragon's Tooth."
Fei Buyuan stood up with a sigh of relief, his face was extremely excited, and he was about to speak, but as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned his head to look at Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan knew what he meant, and said directly:
"It's okay, I know you really want to enter the dragon's teeth, the opportunity is rare, not only will I not stop you, but I will also persuade you to enter."
"What about you?" Fei Buyuan asked.
Zhang Fan didn't have a strong desire to enter the dragon's tooth in his heart, but he just felt that this was a good opportunity, and his purpose was the Youth Assault Brigade of Bibo Star.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Fan asked:
"Are there any restrictions on entering the Dragon's Teeth?"
Xu Zhen said: "Just one, obey." ”
"Can I keep the right to enter the dragon's teeth?" Zhang Fan said.
Xu Zhen smiled, nodded and said:
"As long as I'm in the Dragon's Tooth, it's naturally okay, but if you delay it for too long and the Dragon's Tooth changes, it's not necessarily."
"You...... Back to Dragon's Teeth? ”
Xu Zhen paused, his expression began to become a little indifferent, and he nodded lightly.
"That's okay," Zhang Fan said, "then keep it for now, I still have some things of my own, and I'll think about entering the dragon's tooth after I'm done first." ”
After speaking, Zhang Fan looked at Old Man Jiang, and Old Man Jiang said:
"Don't look at me, my bones are just thinking about drinking right now."
"What about you, Hibiscus?" Xu Zhen asked.
"I'm with my grandfather."
"Allen," Xu Zhen said again:
"Your quality is not enough to enter the dragon's teeth, even if I help you enter, you can't adapt to it."
Allen's face flushed, he smiled awkwardly, and didn't say anything.
"Okay, now that it's all decided, when do you plan to go back to Biboxing?" Xu Zhen asked.
"The sooner the better." Zhang Fan said.
"Then I'll make arrangements, and I'll leave after dinner."
"Xu Zhen, I have something else I want to ask you for help." Zhang Fan said.
"Say it."
"When I was at the Sabre Star Clone Base, I and a few other brothers were scattered, is there any way you can help me find their whereabouts?"
"Sabre Star? No problem, I'll arrange for someone to investigate, and I'll let you know when there's news. ”
"Well," Zhang Fan said, "and at the same time, I want to go to Saber Star again." ”
"I think you should go back to Bibo Star first and wait for my news, whether there is news or not, I will inform you, you rush to Sabre Star, it is hard to guarantee that it is not the same result as last time."
"Will it?"
Zhang Fan squeezed his fists, this was no longer the last pair of fists.
……
Xu Zhen arranged a frigate for Zhang Fan to use as a tool to go to Bibo Star.
On the platform, Xu Zhen saw off Zhang Fan and a few others.
He patted Zhang Fan on the shoulder and said:
"I'm going to separate, I wanted to keep you in the dragon's tooth, but everyone has their own ambitions, you have your own way to go, but I think we will meet again in the future."
"yes, it will." Zhang Fan said.
Xu Zhen said goodbye to the others, and after that, the frigate slowly lifted off the platform and flew away from the Frontier No. 3.
"Old Fei, it's too late to regret it now."
In the cockpit of the frigate, Zhang Fan asked Fei Buyuan next to him while manipulating.
"Regret what? Do you treat me like a brother? Fei Buyuan asked.
"Dang, definitely be." Zhang Fan replied.
"Then your brother is my brother, didn't you say you were going to Sabre Star? I'll go with you, rescue the brothers, and then talk about anything else. ”
Zhang Fan was moved, nodded and said thank you.
There is no direct gateway near Frontier 3, so you must first go to Betelgeuse Four, where there is the nearest strawivelarm gate to the M37 Nebula and then divert to the Blue Wave.
Fortunately, this cross-spiral arm stargate of the Betelgeuse Four-Star Alliance is currently under the control of humans, otherwise it would have to go far away.
Most of the journey was spent traveling from the planet to the stargate, which was actually quite fast.
It's a strange phenomenon that it takes a short time to get from one end of the galaxy to the other, and a short journey that is negligible relative to the galactic scale takes a lot of time.
After three days of tossing and turning, the frigate finally reached Bibo Star.
