The survivors of the base shared some food with them, some of the plants and animals that were local to Ciel, and while it was unclear if there was any long-term harm to these things, they had no choice at the moment, and there was no toxicity that would cause problems in the short term. At least, the survivors of the base have survived on these things for so long.

Of course, this can't last long, so they also hope to take this opportunity to escape from the dead planet.

Finally having a place to rest for a while, Lar and Nelson directly found a remote corner, sat down against the mountain wall, and watched the people coming and going in the base.

"**, how can anything bad happen to us?" Nelson cursed angrily, intending to spit on him, but he thought that he could not open his mask or he would suffocate, so he could only viciously restrain the impulse.

“…… I'm more concerned about what to do now. The assembly point was captured by Tadarin, and communication with the top was severed. Ral's face turned a little pale, "What else can we do to get back to the ship?" ”

"On the bright side, maybe the people up there are already aware of the situation on the ground and are trying to figure it out, and there are still those insects ......," Nelson said, his own voice quieter.

Even if you know the above, what can you do? The Astral Spirit's ground defense system was there, and it was impossible for them to risk being shot down to lower the battleship to the atmosphere for search and rescue, and the previous rally point had made it clear that they were not capable of taking another staging area on the ground. As for the insects...... If the bugs were still alive, the staging area would have been in the main nest of the bugs, and they should have been able to see the ground defenses destroyed and the cruisers descend to atmospheric altitudes, or at least, the purple blanket at the door of the Mobius base.

Just as they were frustrated, there was a commotion at the entrance to the valley, and another group of survivors arrived in the valley. During this time, survivors have been taken back to the base by the outgoing team. But it was obvious that this time it was different, and the excited voice of the four eyes sounded in the communicator of the two, so startled that the two almost jumped up from the ground: "Platoon commander! Platoon leader! The captain of the Black Rose is here! ”

The captain of the "Black Rose" capital ship has many identities, but one of the most important identities is Yang Yi's ship. She was spotted by a patrol team that was chasing down a Tadarin force in the wilderness of Ciel, who had fought her and defeated the Tadarin's force before taking them back to the base.

Her presence meant only one thing, and that was that they had once again hope of making contact with the Fleet Command—though it seemed to have been said similarly before.

She was soon taken to the base's headquarters and took over the command of the entire base. Almost everyone in the fleet knows that several captains of the fleet have a mysterious ability to communicate freely over long distances. No one knew how, but considering that they were all powerful psionic warriors, it wasn't surprising that anyone involved in psionic energy would do anything about it, so they were just excited about being free.

As for those from the Mobius expedition? No one cared about their opinions, anyway, the majority of the base was now dominated by the fleet's biochemical soldiers......

Back at the beginning of the operation, everything went as expected. Tadarin's air force and space defense forces are as vulnerable as ever. Yang Yi even felt many times that if the Star Spirit had divided part of his energy from cultivating spiritual energy to develop an orbital defense system, El would not have fallen.

After clearing Tadarin's space defenses, according to the predetermined plan, A1, Black Rose, Hyperion, and Behemoth arrived at the predetermined position and dropped the landing force from high altitude in orbit to the ground. But it became clear that the problem soon arose.

Before it landed, the Alien Insect landing force was attacked by extremely fierce anti-aircraft artillery fire and ground defense forces, and after landing, it was quickly surrounded and intercepted by an extremely powerful Tadarin force, resulting in the almost complete loss of the landing force.

After learning of this change through the mind of the main nest, Behemoth informed Yang Yi of the situation. Although Yang Yi was helpless, this did play a role in attracting Tadarin's attention. Now that Tadarin's main forces are dealing with the swarm, then they will be able to buy some time for the other landing forces.

But they did not wait for a report from the ground forces, not to mention any telegrams that had been subjected to heavy attacks, or even to confirm the situation at a regular time every 12 hours, which was called for every 12 hours. Not only the A1 troops, but also the Black Rose's troops and Renault's rangers had the same problem.

Twenty-four hours after the scheduled landing time, Yang Yi asked for a second batch of airdrops, but Renault flatly refused. Renault said that in the current situation on the surface is not clear, rashly throwing a second group of troops on the surface is just to add fuel. Images taken by A1 from high altitude are not clear, but it is clear that there are traces of troop movement and firefighting in the various landing zones that were originally planned.

They had no choice but to wait. However, Renault said that if they wait another 24 hours and there is still no news, they can move on to the next step. As for why he waited another day, Yang Yi didn't know, probably because Renault still thought that his brother could hold out for a while.

But Yang Yi didn't intend to sit back and wait, he asked Behemoth to replenish his swarm troops as soon as possible. He doesn't plan to go to the next group of troops anymore, and if he can't contact the ground units at the moment, either they will be destroyed as soon as they land, or there will be communication problems. The only thing that can be contacted is the swarm, and in that case, let the swarm be the main landing force, not just once, but every once in a while, until the ground forces have established a landing zone.

He had planned to rely on tactics, but now that Tadarin didn't give him a chance to show off his little tricks, he had no choice but to use a killer weapon.

Soon, however, approximately 32 hours after the scheduled landing time, they received a muffled radio communication from the ground. A1 quickly tried to filter out some of the noise, but the sound was still very indistinct, but to the effect that they were suffering from radio interference and were unable to connect to Fleet Command and needed support. But the coordinates of the request for support were not audible at all.

According to the analysis, this radio was one of the landing forces from the Black Rose, and it seemed that they had managed to strengthen their radio signal so that Tadarin's interference could not completely distort the communication, or they had found another way, but in any case, they were not blind to the situation on the ground.
