015, Hope Town

The plan of action for the rescue of the abandoned mine was developed before Ashlar completed his training. Qi Qingtian named it "Operation Earth Dragon", and he would personally lead the team, along with fifteen soldiers and Fang Shi. Seventeen members of the Earth Dragon Squad will enter the abandoned mine in disguise as hired armed personnel, and then secretly inquire about the whereabouts of the target person.

On the Holy Zhou Star, Fang Shi only stayed for six days before he said goodbye to his senior brother Su Feichen and left H5, along with him were sixteen members of the Earth Dragon Squad, and he became an ordinary soldier under the One-Eyed Dragon.

The Dilong team first took a butterfly-shaped aircraft to Wangdu Port, the nearest large military spaceport on the Holy Zhou Star, and then boarded a small military spacecraft that flew to a military station in H3. The military spacecraft was quite different from the civilian spacecraft he had ridden before, it was fusiform in shape, and its flight speed was much faster than that of civilian spacecraft, and it only took twenty hours to arrive at a military station in the southern hemisphere of Ziwu Star.

Fang Shi and the others rested at the military garrison for eight hours before leaving, and when they left, they took off their military uniforms, changed into ordinary clothes, and divided into four groups and went to Boda City.

Boda City, a medium-sized city in the southern hemisphere of Ziwuxing, is one of the two secret airports flying to the Abandoned Mine Star, according to Fang Shi's clues from the Longtai detectives, it was at the Boda Spaceport that An Su was sent to the Abandoned Mine Star.

Fang Shi was a wave of four, in addition to the one-eyed dragon Qi Qingtian, there was also Qin Seventeen, who had fought with him in the nameless bar, and a veteran named Wu Qiang. The group traveled all the way and finally arrived in Boda City in the evening of the next day.

At the agreed hotel, the seventeen members of the Earth Dragon Team converged. That same evening. The one-eyed dragon Qi Qingtian took the two of them to inquire about the trip to the abandoned mine star ship.

Two days later, the Earth Dragon Team embarked on a ship bound for K1, a planet that had been abandoned by the Empire for nearly a hundred years. Fang Shi and the others entered the spaceship as mercenary forces, and together with the other two mercenary forces, they escorted a group of "miscellaneous pieces" to the K1 mine star, and the other two mercenary teams consisted of thirty or forty people each.

Flying to the Abandoned Mine Star is an old-fashioned ship with a modified interior that is divided into three levels. The first floor is the crew area and the VIP area; the second floor is the rest area for hired armed personnel and the cargo area; The third floor is the "miscellaneous" area, which is equipped with dozens of iron cages of different sizes, the large iron cage can accommodate more than 100 people, and the small ones can only accommodate a few people. The smallest of them is a one-man cage. It is used to punish and punish those who are not honest.

The hired armed men were divided into three groups, each of more than twenty people, who took turns to monitor the miscellaneous area on the third floor. Seventeen members of the Earth Dragon Squad plus ten others formed the third group. More than a thousand "crumbs" were shipped to the K1 mine, ranging from eleven or twelve to fifty years old.

looked at the numb eyes of the people in the iron cage. Ashlar's complexion was slightly gloomy. In addition to sympathy. There was also a faint anger, this was the first time he had seen the dark industry under the empire, and the people trafficked in the iron cage had almost no dignity to speak of. It's like being raised as an animal. Thinking that his sister An Su also spent in such a harsh environment, his heart became more and more gloomy.

There was a "bang", and it was the roar of guns.

Then came a rattling laugh of another hired watchman, the second person to fall from his guns in five hours. The hired armed personnel have three places to kill and kill, and if they encounter dishonest "miscellaneous", they can directly shoot and shoot without taking any responsibility.

Fang Shi glanced at the man lying in a pool of blood, his heart sank slightly, in fact, he just showed a hateful look at the monitor, and this look happened to fall on the man's eyes, so his life was ruthlessly deprived.

"Quack, you are all honest, be careful that Lao Tzu's gun goes off again!" The watchman laughed wildly a few times, then said coldly.

The rest of the people in the iron cage immediately lowered their heads, not even daring to peek.

The surveillance officer showed some satisfaction, and then took out the voice intercom system at any time, and said: "I met another dishonest person, I was killed, hurry up and clean it up." ”

Moments later, four men in blue uniforms walked up quickly, dragged the shot man out of the cage, and wiped the red blood on the ground.

Fang Shi saw everything, his eyes seemed to be a little numb, such a thing has happened many times since he boarded the old spaceship, at first he planned to stop one or two, after all, it was a living life, but was stopped by the one-eyed dragon Qi Qingtian and reminded him sternly, he knew the stakes after a little thought, and he had to turn a blind eye.

There were people dying on the ship every day, and Fang Shi was getting numb day by day. He became accustomed to seeing too much blood, and when he heard the screams, he turned a deaf ear, and he felt as if he was moving towards coldness step by step.

The speed of the old spaceship is much slower than that of the current ordinary civilian small spaceship, and it takes five days to fly from Ziwu Star to K1 Mine Star, and the ordinary small spaceship may be able to reach it in less than three days. Fang Shi knew that this was related to the raw materials used in the spaceship, although the old spaceship had more time, the energy cost was estimated to be only one-fifth of that of the ordinary spaceship, which could save a lot of money.

Five days later, the old spacecraft finally arrived at K1. K1, also known as Bowangxing, was a pleasant and thriving planet thousands of years ago, but with the overexploitation of minerals and other resources and the heavy pollution of modern industry, it eventually became an abandoned planet.

The vintage spaceship lands in a place called Hope Town. Hope Town is not large, built around the spaceport, and is an important distribution center on Bowang Star, where trafficked people continue to pour into this abandoned mining star, and the minerals mined by the mine owners are continuously transported from Hope Town to the Empire.

Walking out of the old-fashioned spaceship, Fang Shi looked at the gray sky above his head, and there was a sense of déjà vu, the same gray and white sky as the K3 Mine Star, the sky where the sun could not be seen on one side, pale and gloomy, making people a little breathless.

When the old spacecraft landed, a team of nearly 100 armed men quickly came up, cooperated with Fang Shi and other armed personnel on the spacecraft, drove the more than 1,000 "miscellaneous pieces" sold from the spaceship, and forced them to walk quickly towards a certain exit of the spaceport with their heads in their hands.

After a hectic period of work, the Earth Dragon Team completed the final hiring assignment and earned a seemingly large commission from their employer.

Soon after, they disappeared into the Spaceport and submerged into Hope Town. (To be continued......)
