Chapter 78: Change of Guard (Cold, Good Condition)

Wu Tian handed over the temporary resettlement of the migrants to Yum Group for implementation. Wu Tian, who was bleeding heavily because of the hiring of Yum Group, and whose liquidity was tight, rushed to the front line with a group of elite mercenaries led by Crewe's son, as well as a group of high-level clone guards led by Chen Xiaoxiao.

The Milky Way is big and empty, and it seems like an endless void in any direction. It seems that if you just find a random direction, you can easily escape from the encirclement full of loopholes. However, in the galaxy, the "difference is a thousand miles" characteristic makes the interstellar route the only passage that must be followed. Once out of the interstellar branch line that can enter the curvature navigation state, in the complex space like a swamp that does not know where there is a quagmire and deep pit, once the limited energy of the ship is exhausted, or the supply in the ship is exhausted, the fleet that is difficult to get supplies may become an alloy coffin that serves as a sleeping place! As for the fleet that encounters a breakdown or a natural disaster on the way, the chances of survival are even slimmer.

Wandering Star, let's use this name to describe this wandering planet in the cold galaxy for the time being.

The wandering star with a diameter of about 100 kilometers is like an orphan abandoned by the stellar mother, wandering aimlessly in the cold void until the sky is old.

If it weren't for the Thunderstorm Mercenary Regiment's fleet as a sheltered fortress, this wandering planet, which was only recently named, would probably never have a name. Hiding behind the wandering star, the fleet of the Thunderstorm Mercenary Regiment waited helplessly and desperately for rescue from afar. It's a pity that what they are waiting for is not rescue, but reinforcements from the enemy.

If it weren't for the fact that Lan Rui's armed fleet would have to return to Earth and Far Star in the near future, the two forces would have the ability to destroy this entrenched fleet if they were gathered in one place. It's just that what Wu Tian needs is not the wreckage of interstellar warships and spaceships, but complete battleships and spaceships. Therefore, even if he had the ability to attack, Wu Tian would not do so.

"Son of Crewe, your next task is to change shifts with the previous fleet, keep an eye on this escort fleet, and prevent them from escaping." In the frigate, Wu Tian said to the strange-looking son of Krew.

"Why don't you storm it, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat it with our strength, right?" Crewe's son asked.

"No, my main purpose is not to plunder wealth." Since the son of Kru has accepted Wu Tian's employment, he should obey Wu Tian's command. Mercenaries are not policemen, but they do not represent justice. As long as the opponent's strength is not too strong, as long as his identity is not exposed, it is not unacceptable to do even a robbery occasionally.

"If you don't need to fight, but just defend, then what's the difficulty of this mission?" The Son of Crewe asked, confused. In Crewe's son's opinion, Wu Tianhua spent a lot of money to hire Yum Group, and it definitely shouldn't be just for such a simple task. Therefore, the Son of Crewe is eager to know how difficult this task is, so that it is convenient to plan in advance.

"This mission is not easy, as we are currently nominally an interstellar pirate." Wu Tian's words surprised the son of Crewe. After daring to encounter the invasion of the distant star, the coalition forces are trying to clear out the interstellar pirates at a critical moment to commit crimes against the wind, and once exposed, the risk will be very great!

"Why do you have to pretend to be an interstellar pirate, can't you fight as a hostile force?" Crewe's son asked.

"Only by disguising an interstellar pirate, the other party will not dare to come to the rescue." Wu Tian replied.

After understanding Wu Tian's intentions, the son of Kru grasped the key to this operation. So, before taking over the first fleet, the crew painted the battleship with the insignia of an intervalous pirate during the intervals between voyages.

According to the agreement, the armed fleet under Lan Rui's command was replaced, and the fleet of the Yum Mercenary Regiment completed the change of defense without knowing it.

"Surrender and don't kill, there is only one way to die if you resist stubbornly!" Another round of persuasion began.

"Mr. Foreseeer, when are we going to get to Earth's Farstar?" Chen Xiaoxiao asked very urgently.

"Ms. Chen Xiaoxiao, the pioneer group has now set its sights on the earth. The Church of the Holy Spirit and the Church of the Holy Sword also set their sights on the distant stars. For your safety, I don't think it's appropriate to travel to Earth Farstar for the time being. When the opportunity comes, we will transfer Dr. Chen and other researchers and related instruments and equipment to a relatively safe planet. Wu Tian said with regret.

"Is my dad in danger right now?" Chen Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked.

"Not yet." Wu Tian replied.

After arranging the work of changing guards, Wu Tian took Chen Xiaoxiao and a group of clone guards to take an armed spaceship through the twisted interstellar branch line and go to the nearest desolate and uninhabited planetary system.

In this desolate and uninhabited planetary system, on an unnamed planet with an environment like Mars, there is a hidden underground base. This interstellar branch line is a passage that a team of interstellar adventurers struggled to carve out hundreds of years ago after they got lost in a cosmic storm. After the interstellar adventurers finally struggled out of the Jedi step by step, after spending several years, this interstellar branch was sold to interstellar smugglers, and became the secret interstellar branch in the hands of interstellar smugglers. It's just that so far, because the Earth Far Star has not yet become a popular planet, the interstellar smugglers who have mastered this interstellar branch line have not realized the importance of this interstellar branch line. And because the trade volume between the Earth Far Star and the Dawn Star is really limited, this secret and twisted interstellar branch line has been in a state of abandonment for most of the time.

The remote planets along the way that Wu Tian took Chen Xiaoxiao to rush to were temporary bases opened up by the original group of interstellar adventurers.

"Ms. Chen Xiaoxiao, if you agree, how about this planet being named 'Xiaoxiao'?" Wu Tian asked, pointing to the rapidly approaching earthy yellow desolate planet that was coming back from the spaceship's exoscope.

Chen Xiaoxiao did not object, because Wu Tian sent Dr. Chen's recent video to Chen Xiaoxiao when they met before. This is this recent video, which makes Chen Xiaoxiao very obedient.

"In the near future, we will be sending some equipment to Xiaoxiao step by step. It will no longer be desolate, but lively. Before parting, Wu Tian promised.

Temporarily placed Chen Xiaoxiao and the others in Xiaoxiaoxing, which was quite prosperous in his previous life, Wu Tian returned to Diyuanxing in an armed spaceship left by Lan Rui's fleet.

At this time, the Earth Far Star has entered a state of combat readiness, and all forces are carefully guarding against possible invading interstellar pirates. Even with the eight interstellar frigates of the Holy Sword Church and the Holy Spirit Church coming to help, the situation in the Earth Far Star is still very tense.

However, Lan Rui, who is the initiator, does not have the ease and indifference to control everything at all. The construction of the clone production and R&D base has attracted attention within the Deep Blue Consortium, as well as a suitor who has specially rushed to Earth Farstar in order to pursue Lan Rui.

"Help me take out this pesky fly, and I'll give you 10 million credits!"
