Chapter 16: Retreat and Pursuit (I)

Bright red tail flames erupted from the thruster vent of the saucer-shaped fighter, propelling the fighter body to a rapid rise.

Looking at the rapidly fading clouds outside the porthole, Xiao Junling shrugged his shoulders helplessly and closed his eyes silently. The three of them were all in a metal cage two meters high and five meters long and five meters wide at this time, and the black-gray nickel alloy railing that was thicker than the arms of a child was almost an unbreakable trap for low-level abilities, not to mention that there was also an elite Yanyin warrior staring at them, completely eliminating any of their thoughts.

All the weapons have been taken away, so now they are equal to toothless tigers,

I was lucky to be reborn and regain consciousness, I thought that there was still something to be done, but I didn't expect that within a few days, I actually fell into the clutches of the Gambino people again! Is it destined to be food for this group of aliens?

The pale-faced Yu Xin'er curled up and leaned close to him, Fu Jianfeng was still asleep. Fortunately, he still has two battlefield first-aid healing potions on his body, and after obtaining the permission of the general Zochilaer, Yu Xin'er injected him, and now his injury is basically stable.

"Will we be eaten by these monsters?" She asked as she tugged at his arm, trembling.

Xiao Junling shook his head: "Not yet!" Being able to allow us to heal our companions means that they still want us alive, so we won't be turned into food right away. ”

It's just that these words didn't play a half reassuring effect, and the girl couldn't help but sobbed quietly because of excessive fear.

The speed of the saucer fighter was extremely fast, and it only took a few minutes to leave the atmosphere and fly towards the fortress group in synchronous orbit.

At this time, from the porthole, you can see that thousands of large and small saucer-shaped aircraft are rushing from all over the surface of the planet, pouring into several interstellar fortresses in front of you like a tide.

Looking at this momentum, it seems to ...... Damn, they're not planning to retreat, are they? Xiao Junling thought about it for a while, and faintly came to this conclusion that made him happy and worried.

I am glad that the army of the empire has finally come back, but I am worried that I don't know how far this war will go, and whether I still have a chance to get out of trouble.

The saucer seemed to have received special permission and was not hindered along the way, speeding all the way into the largest interstellar fortress.

Under the loud scolding of the two Yanyin warriors, a group of low-ranking Gambino warriors stepped forward and carried the large cage out of the hatch.

A hovering flywheel with a radius of twenty meters was already waiting on the side, and under the watchful eyes of more than ten Yanyin warriors, the cage was put on the flywheel, and then it took off into the air, escorted by the Lord Zochral, and galloped towards the center of the fortress!

A moment later, the levitating flywheel landed in front of a more heavily guarded temple, where the usual miscellaneous soldiers were long gone, and all they could see were groups of tall and imposing Yanyin warriors. They were wrapped in thick blood-colored armor and had large battle axes around their waists. The surface of the armor is patterned with black lines with fine and intricate unknown patterns, the axe handle is inlaid with large blood-colored gemstones, and on the snow-bright axe surface the size of a grinding disc, the thick blood groove with cold lines exudes bursts of cold air!

At the entrance of the hall, the Yanyin warriors were divided into two columns on the left and right, with their chests and bellies protruding, and their thick tails coiled at their feet, standing motionless like two rows of statues.

This is the supreme commander of the Shayuanxing occupation army, the personal elite guard of Lord Dimuqi.

Zochral took a few steps forward and negotiated with the captain-like guy at the head, who waved his paw and motioned for several of his subordinates to carry the cage inside.

The space in the hall is huge, the smooth floor is paved with unknown purple-red spars, the purple walls are full of strange murals full of alien civilization styles, and fist-sized purple balls of light are circling and flying lightly around the pillars that the two people are hugging, turning the entire palace space into a magnificent and evil purple world.

The cage was gently lowered, and the fellows retreated deferentially and cautiously.

After a moment's effort, the sincerely frightened Zochilar led an imposing Gambino powerhouse over.

That guy's body was obviously larger than Zochilar, and his huge belly was inlaid with several pale golden crystals the size of a palm, and his warm and comfortable breath and extremely soft energy fluctuations stimulated Xiao Junling's face to change slightly.

The top-grade Sasa cloud crystal contains rich life energy, and it has unimaginable benefits for the cultivation of the supernatural, as long as a piece the size of a thumb, it can be sold for tens of thousands of energy points in the empire at a sky-high price, such a large number of treasures, it was actually hung on the body of this guy in a grand manner?

The guy stood outside the cage and squinted at them for a moment before nodding and slowly speaking, "Young human, you make me feel a little strange!" ”

"Are you talking about me?" Xiao Junling asked in a little surprise.

This powerful Yanyin warrior spoke not his own language, but the imperial Chinese with a round tone. This means that even among the aristocratic class such as the Yanyin Warriors, its status is extremely special, and there is still great room for growth in the future.

The Gambino royal court has been dealing with the Chinese Empire for decades, and the top of the royal court still attaches great importance to this powerful civilization that can make them suffer repeatedly. Many people of insight began to take the initiative to learn all aspects of Chinese civilization, and a considerable number of royal nobles were proud to be able to speak fluent Chinese.

Di Muqi nodded, and a smile on the long horse's face that was definitely not pleasing to the eye, frightened Yu Xin'er desperately shrank behind him.

"Can you tell me your name? Human," it gently said,

"Being able to kill so many warriors of our clan, you are indeed a worthy opponent to be respected, and you are qualified to make me remember your name!"

"Xiao Junling." He straightened his face and asked:

"It doesn't look like you're going to kill us for food right away, can I tell what this is for?"

A low laugh rang out from its mouth: "Because you are not like those ordinary human beings, you are the Aliens, the elite of the Anthropocene realm, so you have the right to receive some preferential treatment that others do not have. ”

"I know that our meat tastes better!" Xiao Junling sneered,

"Maybe with your status, you can't enjoy it as you please? We must be dedicated to the more noble people, right? ”

Di Muqi was not angry because of his disrespectful words, but said calmly: "Your true strength is at best comparable to the second-order Blazing Flame Warriors of our clan, and the weapons you use are not advanced, but you can kill the powerful Yanyin Warriors many times, which is obviously unreasonable!" ”

"That's because they're so stupid," Xiao Junling teased,

"Enemies with no power and no brains are not terrible at all, they deserve to die in my hands!"

"Yes, wisdom is in many cases better than strength to solve problems," said Demuci approvingly, and then changed his words:

But in your case, that's not the whole truth. Although the IQ of my fellow race is really not flattering! ”

"I can feel a strange aura in your body, it makes me feel very uneasy, although I have no way of knowing what kind of existence it is, but one thing is certain, your strength is different from ordinary people, it should have something to do with it!"

Xiao Junling's expression was grim, and he felt a little jealous of this shrewd guy in his heart.

Compared to his overly muscular counterparts, this guy was obviously much more difficult to deal with, and he was able to see the suspicions in him so quickly.

"Sorry, I don't understand what you're talking about!" His expression remained unchanged, and he responded in a flat tone.

Di Muqi smiled meaningfully: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, anyway, you are now our captive!" We'll soon be bringing you back to the royal court for the Great Elders to study thoroughly, so you should be glad that you and your companions will be able to escape the fate of being food until the secrets of your body are revealed! ”

"What if the truth isn't what you think it is?" Xiao Junling asked coldly.

It cracked open and laughed, "Well, I'll have another delightful meal for dinner!" A young human with a human ability like you will taste great after special cooking, especially your brain, and I will be very happy to drink it dry in one gulp! ”

"Really? Hope you get your wish! Xiao Junling looked at it expressionlessly.

Di Muqi asked with some surprise: "You are now a captive of our people, do you still think that you have a chance to get out of trouble?" ”

"Huh! Is there a chance to say that it is not good for the time being, but ......" He stared into the other party's eyes and suddenly said:

"If you want to return to the royal court safely, I'm afraid it won't be that easy, right? The Empire's legions are not so easy to deal with! ”

"......" Di Muqi's pupils shrank, and his voice was full of surprise:

"You...... Actually guessed it all? ”

"Of course, if it weren't for the imminent counterattack of the Empire, would you have retreated in such a hurry?" Xiao Junling sneered,

"I hope your master's strength is strong enough to block the pursuit of the Imperial Legion!"

Demuqi was silent for a while, and said stiffly: "You will see!" The legions of the Empire are strong, but don't think that the great Gambino court is weak and can be bullied! Who wins and who loses, no one can say until the last moment. ”

After speaking, it led his subordinates out of the main hall without looking back, all the way away.

Half an hour later, the anti-gravity engines of the six starfortresses started at the same time, and together with tens of thousands of warships and a much larger transport fleet around them, they all left the planet's synchronous orbit and withdrew towards the wormhole at the edge of the star system.

They will join up with the camp of the Grand Commander and then withdraw to the royal court together.
