Seeing that it was a human rather than a war beast that rushed to the rescue, the Federation soldiers did not hesitate and immediately climbed out of the chariot or mecha and surrendered. Compared to being eaten alive by war beasts, the loss of dignity from surrender is nothing.

After hiding in the cabin of the chariot, listening to the sound of war beasts gnawing on the armor plate outside, and silently calculating how long it can be supported, it is the greatest happiness to be alive.

Chu Jungui was worried that the beast tide might reappear at any time, so he quickly gathered the captives and asked them to carry food supplies to Base 2 on their own. The rest of the engineering vehicles only selected a few mechs with the least damage and dragged them back to the base, and the others were temporarily thrown in place.

Inside the base, engineers and scientists connected the power to the mobile base to Base 2 and restored the power supply. With power, there are still hundreds of turrets in good condition at the base, and there is the most basic security.

The captives were well aware of their situation and did not wait passively for redeployment, but threw themselves directly into the reconstruction of the base. Most of the current Base 2 has been destroyed, and basic fortifications must be repaired immediately to restore production capacity.

The final statistics also surprised Chu Jungui, this war captured a full 1,100 people, both lancers and pirate flags. The confluence of the two major armies of the Federation is the only way to have an offensive of this scale.

It's just that the little princess is gone.

There was no response to the call in the communication channel. Chu Jungui thought that something had happened to her at first, but it was not very likely when he thought about it. Hathaway's armor is extremely high-grade, with excellent defensive performance, and even if it is directly hit by a chariot cannon, it will not die. And everyone searched the battlefield, but they didn't find anything from her.

Chu Jungui asked around and found that no one had seen Hathaway since the war began. It's not just Hathaway who is missing, it's Middleton as well.

Both disappeared at the same time, and there was only one possibility, and that was to leave with the attacking federal forces.

Lin Xi and Rose both seemed to be in a low mood, and they didn't even hold regular meetings. Chu Jungui knew their feelings very well, after all, everyone had lived and fought together during this period of time, and they not only survived in the extremely harsh environment, but also gradually developed and grew. It is not an exaggeration to evaluate this period of life and death together.

Chu Jungui didn't know what to say, so he was busy silently and deliberately ignored this matter. Anyway, there are enough things now, such as broken chariots all over the battlefield, and the corpses of war beasts. These are resources that are fully recyclable. Especially for the war beast materials, the original inventory of Base 2 has been almost depleted.

Prisoners of war are also a factor of instability, and once so many people have weapons, the consequences are unimaginable. For now, they may be willing to cooperate in order to survive, but no one knows what will happen after a while.

Just in case, Chu Jungui demanded that all soldiers who surrendered must hand over the underlying control of the battle armor and personal terminals. With control in hand, once they want to rebel, Chu Jungui can kill the rebel fighters as long as they stop the operation of the battle armor's respiratory system.

As for the rest of the Pirate Flag warriors, the mood is also not high. Hathaway was gone, and Middleton quietly left, letting them know that they had been completely abandoned.

When he was busy, Chu Jungui suddenly received a message from Lin Xi, "I thought that she and I were already friends." ”

"It's a friend, and it will be. Chu Jun replied.

"How is that possible?"

"There's no way she's going to stay with us forever. ”

"Yes, she has a family, she is the heir to the throne, and she has her own responsibilities and things that must be done. ”

"Exactly. If one day, we leave Planet Four, she will go back to her family. ”

"Yes. ”

Lin Xi is more aware of the operating mechanism of the big family, and he also knows that sooner or later, the little prince will return to the family. Hathaway wasn't a person who couldn't do whatever she wanted. She's good enough, she's good enough, and more importantly, she's still young and has unlimited potential. Therefore, there are not many people around her and invested in her. If Hathaway doesn't grow, then these investors will suffer as well.

After a moment of silence, Lin Xi asked again: "She knew about this attack, did she?"

"At least, she didn't give us exactly where we we're going. If it weren't for this fog, we wouldn't have lost so much. ”

"If she had told us earlier, we would have at least been able to get out of here with the mobile base. ”

"She probably has her own struggles, and besides, federal forces may not have reached her. It's not like you don't know the communication environment here. ”

"Hmm. Lin Xi's voice seemed to be lighter, and it seemed that he had let go of his knot, at least pretending to be so.

Hathaway and Middleton's disappearance was forgotten, and no one continued to mention it. There are a lot of things to do to rebuild the No. 2 base, but fortunately, there are suddenly thousands of more people, and there is no worry that there will be no one to use for a while.

The beast tide may have suffered heavy losses, and did not reappear for the next 24 hours. With more than half of the federal forces suffering casualties, there is no way to recover from such heavy losses without a period of rest.

When the operation of the base was restored slightly, Chu Jungui came to the room where Kaitian was held. At this time, the large hole in the wall had naturally been filled, and a warrior sat in the room, watching the opening of the sky in the glass cover.

Kaitian unfolded himself into a thin layer of black gas, covered the food tray, and was eating quietly. If the microscopic mode is not used, the reduction in food is almost invisible. Kaitian eats hard, but it's really slow. However, although it eats little, it grows quickly.

Chu Jungui sat down at the table and let the guards leave the room. When only he was left, Chu Jungui said, "Tell me, why do you want to stay?"

"You're the one who kept me here. Kaitian only floated with one eye, revealing confusion.

Chu Jungui looked at it quietly.

Kaitian appeared a few more eyes, and instead of answering, he asked, "How do you know that I didn't run away?"

Chu Jungui pointed to the glass cover and said, "Originally, this thing was placed on the table, but when I saw you later, it was on the ground. ”

"When it exploded, it happened to hold me inside. ”

Chu Jungui smiled and said, "You can already open it, right?"

Kaitian was silent for a moment, and a dozen eyes floated in one breath, casting a faint light on the glass cover. The glass cover slowly floated into the air and then moved to the side.

"How did you learn to change the force field?" Chu Jungui's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Born. ”

"Well, then why not leave?"

"The outside world is so scary, there is food, shelter and protection here, why should I leave?"

The words made Chu Jungui speechless.
