Medics and mechanical engineers on the tracked vehicles are busy inaugurating injured teammates.

Looking at the captain who hung up the phone, the deputy team sitting in the driver's seat immediately asked, "What did the superior say?" ”

His name is Song Changfeng, and the familiar team members call him Lao Song. This old guy has been working in the Beacon Squad for a long time.

Zheng Hao was silent for a while and said, "The original mission has been canceled, and the containment planning team of the Investigation Department has asked us to stand by at the pursuit point, and if the other party moves, follow them, but don't act rashly and avoid firefights." Everyone's faces changed slightly. Old Song cautiously asked, "How close?" and "Let us decide for ourselves." ”

Hearing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Except for Lao Song.

Seeing that there was no follow-up to the captain, he continued to ask anxiously. "Where's the reinforcements?"

Zheng Hao looked at the reeds outside the window. "I didn't say it."

There was silence in the tracked car, and silence fell back on.

Although the superiors did not say it explicitly, it was clear that they had been abandoned, as well as those captured prisoners. As for the reason not to say, it means that with their authority, they do not need to know.

The medic silently bandaged the wounded on the stretcher, replacing the spare prosthesis, which he had seen too often.

Song Changfeng slammed his fist on the steering wheel. "!"

Jiang Xuezhou, who was sitting in the back row, slowly closed his eyes, lowered his head and said softly. "I said it...... We didn't have to exchange fire. Zheng Hao silently lit a cigarette and replied lightly. Do you think I have a choice?"

He was right to give the order to attack, but it was not his own dictatorship. It's just that he can't tell his teammates what the specific tasks given to him by his superiors are.

In the Academy, it is a serious disciplinary violation for senior personnel to disclose information that does not conform to the authority of "unauthorized" low-level personnel, regardless of whether it causes substantial impact.

All units only know what they need to know to ensure the efficient operation of the entire system. To avoid mistakes, senior personnel will even reduce communication with junior personnel. He didn't care if the rules were reasonable.

In the Academy, even the lowest-ranking G-level personnel and even newly accepted apprentices can live a prosperous life in the ivory tower built by the Academy with the standard of "academic preferential treatment".

For survivors born in the swamp, becoming an Explorer of the Academy is almost the only way out of ignorance, poverty, and barbarism. Although the science and technology committee led by the college gave them some advanced technology, it was not for free.

Although many survivor settlements have received relatively advanced production technology, the improved productivity has not enriched their material and spiritual lives.

To be honest, Zheng Hao is no longer as yearning for that ivory tower as he was when he was a child, and he has long passed the age of receiving higher education. If he can't pass the professional assessment and become a researcher, he will be the highest D level in his life.

But it is absolutely impossible for him to return to the original survivor settlement and live that kind of primitive life. Therefore, he could not make a mistake in any way.

It's not easy to get to this point, at least you have to keep your D-class status. He didn't like the road under his feet. But since you have chosen, you have to accept it.

Since the beta0.4 version update, Chu Guang saw that players had good feedback on the new feature of submitting tasks and receiving tasks on the official website, so he asked Xiaoqi to further update the function.

Players can now not only claim and submit tasks in the Quest Interface on the official website, but also update the quest status in real-time in the text dialog of the quest window.

This feature is not mandatory, and only provides more options for players in situations where the original mission is difficult or almost impossible to complete. After all, in the field where the alliance's signal is not covered, any contingency is possible.

Chu Guang knew very well that he was just an ordinary person, not an all-knowing and all-powerful god, and it was impossible to perfectly predict every possible situation. And his limited energy didn't allow him to do so.

Sometimes not to mention that the player is confused, Chu Guang himself will be stunned for two or three seconds, such as now.

Chu Guang was in a state of bewilderment.

He just sent someone to pick up a mother on the edge of Luoxia Province. Why did you provoke going to college?

Although it wasn't his plane that fell, the war in Luoxia Province was at a critical stage at the moment, and it was probably not a good idea to provoke the academy before the problem of the legion was solved.

Except for the sentence "well done", he really couldn't think of how to go back to the little player who went to the official website to "report on his work".

However, it was only half a minute after he was stunned, and soon Chu Guang thought about it and found that things might not be as bad as he imagined. A wanted D-class had been hanging with him for almost a year, and he hadn't seen a second wave of bounty hunters come and ask for his head.

It's just a few E-class personnel, but they still died on the scrap, and the college with a big career really doesn't really take it seriously. What really made Chu Guang care was another thing. "Are you here for Xiao Yu?"

Chu Guang pressed his eyebrows, thinking about countermeasures in his heart.

Xiao Yu is the key to solving the brood on the B6 floor, and it cannot be handed over under any circumstances, and it must be transferred from the academy's power projection range to a safe place as soon as possible before the academy's top management makes a decision.

The trouble now, however, is that companies don't want the pilots to have an accident, and they don't want to take the risk of rescue failure. They wanted the coalition to send airborne troops to bring people back.

However, Chu Guang really wanted to say, then why don't you send a few more transport planes over!

The airborne forces of the alliance can set off at any time, but it is always impossible to fly more than a thousand kilometers away on their own and then run back on two legs. It's too silly

At this moment, Xiao Qi, who was sitting on the desk, raised his head and said in a pleasant voice. "Master, the representative of the company has just arrived at the airport, and he wants to meet you." Chu Guang thought for a moment and spoke. "Let him come up." "Okay."

The Iron Heart lowered the elevator.

Yi Chuan, who had just gotten off the transport plane, soon came to the Heart of Steel.

Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from outside the door, Chu Guang grabbed Xiao Ran who was sitting on the desk and stuffed it into the drawer despite the latter's aggrieved voice.

Almost at the same time, there was a knock on the door. Chu Guang cleared his throat and said. "Please come in".

The door was pushed open, and Yi Chuan walked in in a hurry, without even saying a word of greeting, and said straight to the point, "Is there any news about our pilot?"

Chu Guang: "I assure you, both of you are fine. Yi Chuan immediately asked with fiery eyes. You can get in touch with them," Chu Guang looked away with a subtle expression.

"It's not quite accurate to be able to get in touch, but we do have an indirect way of communicating over long distances, which can convey some vague information, like your carrier pigeons, but you can't communicate face-to-face with those two pilots.

Chu Guang had a headache when explaining this question, to be honest, no one believed it, but he really couldn't make up any reliable reasons. The Burning Corps actually carried a radio with a huge power that could even break through the environmental restrictions of Luoxia Province. Joke...... He stuffed something into the company's plane, and the company itself could not know if he heard this vague statement, Yi Chuan frowned, but he did not continue to dwell on this issue. Everyone has their own secrets.

It is neither realistic nor polite to unilaterally make the other person confess. Taking a deep breath, he stared at Chu Guang and returned to the topic.

"The spokesman of the Supreme Council has promised the public before that we will not allow our non-combatants to be on the front lines, but in fact we have broken the line for you several times...... Including before at Camp 530, including before at Route 7, including ......"

Chu Guang coughed lightly.

"I'd rather call it flexibility than breaking the bottom line, and every time unexpected progress has been made, isn't it?" But not this time"

Yi Chuan continued with a stiff expression, "Two of our pilots fell on the edge of the swamp!" You promised me that those non-combatants would not be in danger."

Chu Guang explained: "Anything can happen on the battlefield, not to mention that it is outside the battlefield, the ghost knows that the people of the academy will suddenly attack your plane, at least our soldiers have saved your pilot." Yi Chuan's expression froze, "Academy," Chu Guang said softly unkindly.

Anyone else but the academy can knock your plane down without even noticing, and you can ask your pilots about that, when they get back. ”

In fact, he has more direct evidence that the academy shot down their plane, such as the four captives captured by the players, but he is not sure how the company will treat the academy.

The importance of the pilot's life does not conflict with the prudent diplomatic strategy of the enterprise, one is the consideration of interests, and the other is the consideration of risks. Individual feelings may be impressed by a three-second memory, but collective decision-making must be a consideration after weighing many factors.

So he planned to test the attitude of his allies first.

Yi Chuan was silent for a while, as if he didn't intend to talk about this issue more.

“…… Leaving the academy matters aside, in any case, you must ensure that the lives of our pilots are our first priority. ”

Seeing Yi Chuan's expression, Chu Guang raised his eyebrows slightly.

To his surprise, the representative of the company did not react much to this, and his expression was as if ...... Not even too surprised.

It seems that there should be a lot of friction between the academy and the enterprise.

But think about it, this world is so vast, and there is not only a place in Luoxia Province, maybe it is not impossible for colleges and enterprises to have entanglements in other regions that they don't know.

Realizing that the company probably didn't want to make a fuss about the academy, Chu Guang did not continue to arch the fire, but returned to the problem of rescuing the pilot.

Looking at Yi Chuan with a serious face, Chu Guangyi said righteously.

"Mr. Yi Chuan, do you mean that the safety of the lives of the residents of the alliance is not important? I must remind you that we are allies in the same trenches as you, not your employees. "I didn't mean that!"

Seeing that Chu Guang had misunderstood what he meant, Yi Chuan hurriedly explained with a smile, "Every life is important, and of course the residents of the alliance are ...... Without going around the bush, I'll put it bluntly, the council promised the residents of Ideal City that it would not put non-combatants in danger, but a reporter from the Ideal City Daily heard the news out of nowhere and insisted that we were taking risks outside of the employment contract for our employees. ”

Chu Guang asked impatiently, "What can they do if they know?"

The seats on the council were not voted for, and he wanted to complain about these forward-looking guys before.

"Negative news can affect our stock price, and the stock price is the support of the residents of Ideal City, which involves Cr...... That is, the essence of credits. ”

Yi Chuan smiled bitterly and continued, "In short, credit is a sensitive issue for us...... You don't want our aid to be affected by the amount of your aid."

Chu Guang took a deep breath and slowly calmed down his emotions.

"I also want them to come home soon, so please send two more at once...... No, four planes coming! I can immediately send a detachment of 100 from the front to the north."

Yi Chuan: "But the question is, what if it is shot down again"

"Then let it land in Oasis 8! The desert is our power projection!"

Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and swiped it in the air, pushing the holographic map prepared in advance in front of Yi Chuan, "I will ask my subordinates to send your pilot to the boarding point safely...... Of course, including ours. Looking at the punctuation location on the map, Yi Chuan's face was full of embarrassment.

However, it was clear that he couldn't think of a better alternative to Chu Guang's proposal, and finally chose to take a step back. "Okay, I'll go and convince our people over there that the boarding place is in Luoxia Province...... There should be no problem. ”

The Alliance has enough influence in Luoxia Province that even if the Golden Lizard Kingdom is a vassal of the Academy, it may not dare to do anything to their aircraft. And that kind of indigenous kingdom...... Presumably, they don't have the ability to shoot down their plane unknowingly like the Academy. Chu Guang nodded,

"Go ahead, our people are ready to go at any time."

Seeing Yi Chuan, who was leaving the captain's office, Chu Guang's brows relaxed slightly, and the back of his head rested on the back of the chair and muttered to himself.

"That should be fine."

For the sake of those cute little players, his plan to be both an NPC and a father is really heartbreaking. forced him from a salesman to a nanny.

At this moment, a crack opened in the drawer, revealing a pitiful face the size of a thumb. "Uh......h Master, is Xiao Ran so unsightly" This guy deliberately changed his voice in order to pretend to be pitiful. Chu Guang coughed.

"It's nothing, it's just...... I am the manager of the alliance, representing the image of the alliance, and it is not good to put a figure on the table when meeting foreign guests. "Forget it, the player.

He never cared about how those open-mouthed guys arranged themselves on the forum, as long as they didn't draw their own books.

But after all, the company is an outsider, and he doesn't want to hear any rumors that damage his prestige in the ideal city, adding unnecessary risks to the cooperation between the company and the alliance.

Xiao Qi, who was lying in the drawer, tilted his head.

But Xiao Ran thinks that they seem to be quite avant-garde when it comes to AI...... I don't think I care, do you?" Chu Guang said with a straight face: "I care." "Xiaoqi" woo. ”

Although he knew that the aggrieved appearance was a simulated program, Chu Guang still sighed, and stretched out his index finger to rub his little head in his heart.

"I'm sorry, I may have been a little rude just now, next time I'll have someone get you a special seat on the table with your back to the door."

"Hehe, no need, the owner is very happy to have this little heart! Xiao Ran is the master's assistant, Xiao Ran is very sensible, and he won't cause trouble to the owner. ”

The aggrieved expression suddenly swept away from the puppet's face, and the smile on the small and delicate face was like a rainbow after the rain and the sky was clear.

As Chu Guang guessed, this guy's expression was really pretended, after all, where did the "wastebasket" get so many expressions.

Chu Guang couldn't help but feel a little helpless, the world had already become like this, God knows why the original manager wanted to add a bunch of redundant and cost-effective functions to his Al assistant. Although he doesn't hate it.

Xiao Ran, who was holding his hands on the edge of the drawer, didn't know what the owner in front of him was thinking at the moment, so he put his chin on the back of his hand and blinked humanely.

"Master, can you grant a small request to Xiao Ran?" Go ahead. ”

Xiao Ran said a little worriedly.

"That...... Next time, don't stuff Xiaoqi into the black drawer, just put it in the ghost as usual, okay?"

I didn't have a light bulb in my pocket, and it was also pitch black. Although he was curious, Chu Guang didn't ask the bottom of it. Maybe AI has its own problems. It's not something that is hard for him to satisfy.

Stretching out his index finger and rubbing his little head, Chu Guang said with a gentle smile. "Well, I promise."

Wandering at the intersection of the swamp and the province of Luoxia.

Lao Bai, who had just returned to the line, gathered the players in the makeshift camp. "New Task"

"The command told us to take the pilots and the prisoners of the academy and move in the direction of the northern part of the province of Luoxia, and we will board the plane at Oasis 8, when reinforcements will join us.

"What about this plane", Yashi pointed to the two pilots who were wondering how to repair the plane not far away. Lao Bai shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression. "It looks like I can't count on it."

By the time that guy read the manual, the regular army of the academy might have surrounded him.

I heard that the academy also has its own armed forces, and there are many vassals attached to the academy in the swamp. In order to replace the expensive biomimetic prosthetics, many bounty hunters and mercenaries are happy to take on the work of the Academy. Although I am not afraid of those guys, but there are many of them, it is a trouble after all.

And compared to the straight-up legion, the academy's equipment is too bells and whistles to be guarded against. Looking at the transport plane, Ye Eleven said with a reluctant expression on his face. "It's a shame that such a good plane was blown up," Tempest glanced at him. "Why are you going to carry it back?"

Ye Shi looked at Luo Yu, who was also reluctant next to him.

Noticing Ye Shi's gaze, Luo Yu was stunned and said with a wry smile. "Look what I'm doing, I can't fix this." Night Ten said with a smile.

"It's not for you to cultivate, isn't your little feather able to give birth to children like other mothers? Just the kind of evolution we've seen in the center of Kiyosen...... See if you can make it come out in one piece.

"No !!" Luo Yu shook his head: "Xiao Yu is not the same as the brood in Qingquan City, it cannot be attached to mechanical parts. ”

Ye Shi was stunned and asked, "Then how did it fly the plane" Luo Yu thought about it and gave his opinion.

"The Dragonfly transporter...... Probably because it inherited part of my experience, the Eagle fighter may have assimilated the other pilot.

So in essence, its fruiting entity does not assimilate the machine into a part of the body, but through its own experience...... Driving a machine that's still working, am I right?" Tempest summed it up sharply.

Luo Yu immediately nodded, "Yes, that's what it means." The wind touched the bridge of his nose, and it was out of line.

To give a popular example, Xiao Yu's ability is to sit in the driver's seat and drive, and the brood in Qingquan City is to run directly on the shoulder. It's the same organism that drives the machine, but as long as you don't have to be blind, you can see the difference between the two.

The idea of swallowing the plane with slime molds seems to be unworkable, and it is even more unrealistic to let the force carry the plane. It is also nearly 200 kilometers away from Oasis 8.

Carrying such a large transport plane back, and hiking over mountains and mountains, it is not a force animal, and Gao Gao is also a Kryptonian."

However, Night Ten didn't give up there.

His eyes rolled, and his heart suddenly moved. Why don't you let that guy come up with a bad idea. The murderous dagger's eyes lit up. "I think 0K"

The good name made the dog take it and raised his hand excitedly. "+1, Elder Brother Fang must have a way!" This guy has been planning PY with the dog, and must know what ordinary people don't know about the inside story of the game.

Seeing that so many people supported him, Night Ten immediately took action and hid the VM of the quit buddy into the nearby bushes as a locator. This thing needs to verify the DNA information to unlock it, and there is no fear of being picked up. Besides, this thing is just a terminal, and it doesn't contain anything sensitive. Clapped his hands and stood up, Ye Shi looked at the stunned wind, and said with a smile, "It's done" After a while, I will go to the forum @ Fang Chang. Tempest calmed down and said earnestly. "I don't think there's a way for Fang Chang"

"If you don't try it, how do you know, if you don't try, forget it, it's a big deal to quit smoking and buy a VM." Ye Shi patted Tempest's shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's go, Qianhuo'er has gone." ”

After determining the new mission to be transferred, Lao Bai divided into two squads and went to the crash site of the Eagle fighter and the Dragonfly transport plane respectively.

Fruiting body samples were recovered. The group packed up their things and prepared to evacuate.

The captive, Wu Liangping, was seriously injured and unconscious, and was stuffed into a cryogenic sleep chamber, while the previous android was covered in a body bag and wrapped in a layer of tin foil with duct tape.

Seeing that these people were going to take him away, Zhao Xiao suddenly became nervous. "Where are you going to take us?"

"It's none of your business, just follow it honestly." Yashi poked him in the back with a pistol and said with a hippie smile. Zhao Xiao said nervously.

You'd better let us go, it's on the edge of the swamp--- you can't get out of here with us. This kind of painless and hard mouth is not so bad that it makes people angry.

Ye Shi, who was holding him, laughed and teased: "It's impossible, it's okay to go out, with all due respect, at your level just now, how many times you come back will be a gift."

Zhao Xiao's face turned red, and he said indignantly: "We are an exploration team, and we ...... And not a regular army! And...... I'm telling you, we're official prospectors, and we're E-class! There's no way the academy can leave us alone!" And it's also E-class, which is okay. Could it be that there are F and G below the E class? Looking at his expression, it seems to be true. I didn't take it to heart if I didn't stay overnight. Even if it is, so what

"Don't brag less, be cannon fodder and be confident," Ye Shi said lazily, "And if it's really according to what you say, it's even more impossible for us to let you go, or wait for your reinforcements to come, who will we use as cover" "You guy...."

Zhao Xiao was red-faced and wanted to say something, but Chen Yutong, who had not spoken all the time, finally couldn't hold back and stopped him. "Zhao Xiao... Enough talk, don't say it. ”

Besides, she was afraid that these people would change their minds and bury them on the spot.

The reminder from his teammates seemed to have done something, and finally the lad realized his position and shut his mouth and didn't speak. Night Ten didn't bother to pay attention to him

This guy always reminds him of when he was young and ignorant. He's not that big now, though.

After half a day of running, the group had left the range of the swamp and reached the edge of the mountains in the northern part of Luoxia Province.

There are many xenomorphs active here that no one has ever seen in the River Valley Province, but fortunately, there are not many of them, and there is no danger. It's too dangerous to drive at night in an area where there is xenomorph activity.

Lao Bai picked a place with a relatively good view and set up camp, some people stayed to watch the first half of the night, and some people went offline to eat. Official website forum

As soon as it was launched, Ye Shi couldn't wait to open a post, for fear of being preempted by his teammates. "The Great School of Journalism shot down the plane of the enterprise"

Although such a thing as "stealing a plane" can be said in a small group, it is not interesting to discuss it with everyone in a small group.

Ye Wei swears.

It's definitely not about showing off or pretending. Mainly for "brainstorming"

As he expected, almost at the same time that the post was sent, a refresh instantly received hundreds or thousands of clicks. Tail "Giao!" Siss: "Really, Fake"

Picking up garbage level 99 "I just went to the south, you opened the map of the north"

The quit smoking that had just dropped off the line and didn't take 24 hours also popped up, and the idea was as off the line as always. "Damn, this is going to war with the academy again"

1 second to remember:
