Looking at the confusing and strange scene in front of them, everyone was at a loss.

Steve didn't let Helen stay on as a reserve, and everyone could understand it. Isn't there a familiar saying, "War makes women go away." "Women are weak and kind by nature, and they are not suitable to face a cruel and bloody battlefield. The danger is a war, and the ultimate war that will be won or destroyed. Can a woman take on such a heavy responsibility?

The most difficult thing for everyone to understand is the attitude of Captain Bruce. Mr. Captain, who has always been gentle and gentlemanly, should have strongly supported Steve's decision. But now, he personally ordered such a lovely girl to face danger, even death, how cruel! Everyone is puzzled by this.

And Chief of Staff John Higgins's approach complicates matters even more. He arranged for Lin Feng to protect Helen, perhaps out of concern for a weak woman, but anyone who was a little careful could see that this kind of care was special. Could it be that Helen is a relative of the Chief of Staff? But why did Bruce let the chief's family go on such a dangerous mission? Didn't you hear that there was a conflict between the two? On the contrary, since the two partnered, the cooperation is quite tacit, and they are as close as brothers.

So, how can all this be explained?

Putting aside everyone's doubts, the rescue at this time has entered a very critical moment.

When Helen and Steve had a fierce confrontation, the main force of the rescue operation, the "Dragon Thorn" troops, had also arrived. As a special unit in the central control room, the core area of the arch satellite ship, the "Dragon Thorn" has strict organization, discipline, and a spirit of sacrifice. On the way, they had already understood their mission in detail, understood the heavy responsibility on their shoulders, and were ready to die. According to the difficulty of the task and the strength of the team members, they made detailed arrangements for every detail, even down to who is responsible for each leakage, the order of the reserve team after defeat, and so on.

The arrival of the Dragon Thorn troops officially kicked off the rescue operation. The rescue operation entered a 60-minute countdown.

The first group of 44 team members entered the energy storage chamber in bloated protective suits. They will be divided into 22 groups and each of the 22 leaks will be plugged at the same time. (Prior to this, the damage management team had successfully closed a leak)

At this time, the fog vapor formed by the volatilization of liquid hydrogen in the energy storage cabin is quite thick, filling every space in the cabin, and at the same time greatly increasing the air pressure in the cabin. They can no longer use their eyes to discern the direction, and can only follow the guidance of the smart watch, under great pressure, and strive towards their respective goals.

The distribution of the 22 leaks is very chaotic and varies from place to place. There are 10 leaks closer to the inlet,

The distance is in the range of 40-80 meters, which is a relatively safe task for the team members with less physical exertion; The distance from No. 11 to No. 22 is more than 100 meters, and the farthest is one of the No. 12 storage tanks, that is, the No. 22 leak point, which is nearly 200 meters away from the entrance, which is the most difficult and dangerous rescue task.

As the team members went deeper and deeper, people's hearts outside the cabin were also highly tense.

Time seems to freeze at this time, and every second is a kind of torment for people.

One minute...... Two minutes...... Five minutes......

Seven minutes passed. Good news finally came from the cabin. Leak No. 1 was successfully plugged...... The No. 2 leak was successfully plugged...... No. 3 Success...... No. 4 and No. 5 were successful......

The good news kept coming. Ten minutes later, the 10 leaks that were close to each other were successfully sealed! The rate of pressure rise in the cabin has slowed down significantly. There was finally a hint of relief on everyone's faces.

However, with the withdrawal of the rescue team one after another, people's hearts became heavy again. Only eight of the ten groups of team members who completed the task were withdrawn in the end, and there were still 4 team members who did not come out, perhaps...... Maybe they won't be able to pull out again.

But people don't care to grieve for them. Because, the sword is still hanging over people's heads! The demon is still with its mouth wide open, ready to devour everything in front of it!

Fifteen minutes later, news came from the cabin that three more leaks had been successfully blocked! However, only one group of players is retreating!

Eighteen minutes later, 4 groups of team members asked to send a reserve team, because they were exhausted and could not reach the goal, and the mission failed! Moreover, there is no longer any possibility for them to withdraw!

Twenty-five minutes later, the team responsible for the last five leaks sent out a message almost simultaneously, asking the reserves to leave immediately. Their mission has also failed!

In just twenty-five minutes, there have been 11 groups of team members who have stayed in it forever! Moreover, now five reserves are needed, and there are only eight reserves of the "Dragon Thorn", four have already been sent just now, and there is still one left, what to do?

Bruce, as the top decision-maker, decisively ordered: the recruit reserve to move immediately. Each reserve is increased to three people, and if it does not succeed, it can only be - to meet death!

Four of the recruits in the reserve were quickly replenished to the "Dragon Thorn", and among the remaining four, Lin Feng, Helen, and Calvin formed a reserve.

In the process of preparation, Lin Feng made a request to Bruce that surprised him.

"Sir, I'm asking to be in charge of leak point 22!"

"Why? Don't you know that that's the most dangerous mission? ”

"Because I have this self-confidence and strength! What's more, I'm a military man! Please trust me, sir! ”

Higgins next to him was anxious: "Lin Feng, you ...... Have you forgotten what I told you? ”

Lin Feng looked at Higgins: "Sir, I will definitely be able to bring Helen out alive!" I swear by the glory of my soldiers! ”

Looking at Lin Feng's confident and determined look, Bruce nodded, "Okay, I promise you, I believe in your strength and will!" ”

At the moment of nodding, he seemed to feel his heart twitch violently, how similar this scene was to that scene more than ten years ago! Now, once again, he has sent his loved ones to death! Isn't it too cruel to yourself? What a misfortune to be my Bruce's grandchildren! God, have mercy on me, an old man who is about to die, and please don't take away my only relative!

The old man looked at the team members with a complicated expression, and among them, there was a back figure, which belonged to his beloved granddaughter.

Higgins glared at Bruce: "Old fellow, if something happens to Helen, I'm going to fight with you!" I watched her grow up, and she's not just your granddaughter, she's also mine!! Do you really want to cut off our two old brothers from their children and grandchildren? You...... You're really ...... Ay! ……”

Faced with a thunderous Higgins, Bruce was silent.
