Chapter 356: Acquaintance Agent (2nd Update)

Day 2.

"No. 2, No. 2, our ship has arrived at the designated position and can dive in at any time. ”

"Received, proceed as per the booking schedule. Again, the key to this operation is secrecy. If you can't find an opportunity, it doesn't matter if you retreat, don't let the place detect it. ”

"No. 2, No. 2, there is an exchange of fire in the target area of our ship, and the operation may need to be postponed. ”

"We are short on time and we cannot postpone the operation. I'll contact the command immediately and let the target area cease fighting, and your ship must enter the ...... within the scheduled time."

While responding to the call, Li Mu was congested.

Now that they are in the war zone, they cannot be called by their first names, even if they communicate in plain language, during the operation, and all members call each other by code names.

As is customary, the fleet commander will be the captain of a starship, which must be No. 1, and the other captains will be in the back row.

As a result, as soon as Li Mu began to rank, he attracted everyone's opposition.

Everyone's reasons are very convincing, other people's fleet commanders are all rear admirals, even if Li Mu is promoted to colonel, it is a grade worse.

When No. 1 is not qualified, No. 2 is a little bit better.

In fact, the real reason has nothing to do with this at all, and it is not that Li Mu's prestige is not enough, the main reason is that he didn't know how to chat before and stimulated a large group of single dogs, and everyone refused to count him as No. 1, but made a No. 2 to disgust him.

Li Mu strongly protested, and even put on a shelf as a commander, but unfortunately it was completely useless. The captains of the 2nd and 2nd shouted, and they called it down.

Of course, the reason why Li Mu chose to compromise was not that he was willing to give in, but that he didn't have so much time to argue about this kind of thing. Including the fact that someone is rushing to take the blame, he can't even think about it.

Now all of Li Mu's energy is focused on infiltrating the operation.

Sector 65 is currently a war zone, and the enemy's vigilance is much higher than before. If you want to pretend to be an interstellar pirate and swagger in, I'm afraid that you will have to be wrapped in dumplings in minutes.

Fortunately, Li Mu is no longer fighting alone, although a fleet looks like a big target, but under the unified coordination of the campaign headquarters, it is not impossible to infiltrate into the star field of the 65th star area.

But the fleet will definitely break up, and the starships will be used as units, under the cover of the main attack fleet, to infiltrate from different locations.

The entry area is all selected by Li Mu.

According to the information gathered, the production sites of the thorny vines in the 65 star area are all resource planets, and there are seven in total.

Li Mu selected six captains, plus himself, a total of seven people to form an action group. As for the remaining three, in addition to being responsible for receiving, they also serve as reserves. If there is a problem with any of the action groups, it will be on top of the reserves.

The plan went very smoothly, and even a few hiccups were quickly resolved. After confirming that everyone had infiltrated smoothly, Li Mu turned off the communication.

The communication signals on the periphery of the theater of operations are very chaotic, and there is a way to avoid interference or monitoring from the 65-star sector. But after going deep into the 65th star sector, you can no longer use long-range interstellar communication casually.

Reports can only be sent by encrypted means at the agreed special time, and plain language communication must be absolutely prohibited.

In addition, although it was infiltrated by an interstellar battleship, this was mainly due to mobility considerations. If you take concrete actions, you can't just drive the starships to those resource planets.

Because the mission goal is secretly poisoned, not destroyed with great fanfare. Otherwise, even if you can successfully burn all the thorn vines, it will not help the core of the plan.

After infiltrating, the starship immediately looks for a place to hide, whether it is a meteorite belt or a barren planet, in short, it can't act casually.

Once you've found the lurking location, send out a capable combat team on a small transport ship to carry out the real mission.

There are government or military agents in Sector 65, and those people will provide some assistance to the combat team.

Li Mu hid the starship on a barren asteroid, and then took Ma Xiao and a small team to take a frigate disguised as a civilian spaceship and slowly advanced towards the target planet.

"You got in touch with the agent?"

Li Mu turned his head and asked Ma Xiao.

"You don't need to make contact, the people are on the target planet you're going to. Ma Xiao replied: "After arriving nearby, as long as the connector code is transmitted, she will take the initiative to contact us." ”

Li Mu frowned and did not speak.

Of the seven resource planets, Li Mu himself claimed the largest one.

The thorn vines on this planet are not the main resource, and only occupy the area of one administrative district. But last night's raw materials, such a large area is already quite considerable. Roughly calculated, the production of thorn vines here accounts for more than one-third of the entire 65-star area.

What's more, the vines here belong to the fleet.

Even if everything else fails, as long as it can be successfully "refueled" here, the fleet of the 65th Star Sector will be enough to drink a pot.

In addition, it was a very coincidental fact that the agent Ma Xiao was looking for happened to be here.

The agent was the captain of a cargo ship specializing in the interstellar transportation of resources.

Because it doesn't take a long time to get in, the transportation category in charge is also relatively low-end.

And among all the resource categories, the thorn vine happens to be the kind that is relatively low-end and worthless.

Judging from these circumstances, that agent must be able to help a lot, and invisibly reduce the difficulty of Li Mu's task.

So when Ma Xiao mentioned such an agent, Li Mudang decided to start from this aspect.

They were led in by a transporter captain who would not suspect them.

Just vaguely, Li Mu always felt that Ma Xiao seemed to be hiding something from that agent.

As far as Li Mu's understanding of Ma Xiao is concerned, even if he really does something fanny, it will not affect the task itself. So although there were some doubts, I didn't delve into anything.

After getting closer to the target planet, Ma Xiao asked Li Mu to temporarily find a place to hide, and sent intermittent communication signals through the instrument.

The signal is disorganized, much like jammed information.

This jumble of signals is common, both in wartime and under normal circumstances. Some are shipwreckage machine reactions, some are a mixture of multiple signals, and even cosmic rays may derive special signals.

Li Mu knew that this was the usual way of camouflage used by the agents. Only someone with a unique password can decipher the relevant information.

Ma Xiao sent a signal for a short time, and soon got a response.

"I got in touch. Ma Xiao said: "We are lucky, the other party happens to have a transportation mission." We'll get to the route in advance, and we'll be able to smuggle on board the ship and head to the target planet. But to hurry, we only have two hours. ”

Ma Xiao was very professional in this regard, Li Mu did not intervene, and left him in charge.

Under the guidance of Ma Xiao, the spacecraft came to a coordinate location, hidden on the back of an asteroid.

After waiting for more than an hour, a transport ship came into view.

It is a large S-class transport ship, larger than an interstellar battleship, but not combat-capable. If there is a war, the small spaceship that Li Mu is in can pose a threat to the other party.

But Li Mu didn't come here to hijack the ship, but to smuggle it.

The captain is his own man, but the rest of the crew is not. And on this kind of transport ship, there must be armed personnel escorting.

Therefore, Li Mu and the others could not be discovered by the other party, and they had to use small thrusters to infiltrate the transport ship when it passed by.

The captain will cooperate to close the scan and open a hatch.

The process may seem dangerous, but with a group of well-trained soldiers, it is not difficult to complete the process.

When the transport ship flew over, Li Mu took dozens of people, wearing space protective suits, like meteors, shot out from the back of the asteroid and climbed on the transport ship. As a hatch opened, a group of merfolk entered.

After entering, the captain was waiting for them at the entrance.

And after Li Mu saw the captain, his first reaction was not to step forward and shake hands, but to have the urge to turn around and run away.

"Is that you?"

Looking at that majestic body, Li Mu was dumbfounded.

"It's me. ”

The big fist of the casserole was imprinted on Li Mu's face.
