Chapter 275: A Chance Encounter

In short, he didn't care so much about the woman who suddenly came out, and after Xuanwu took over, he temporarily put it behind him and focused on his current target, the ice-blue planet.

"The preliminary scan results are in, Commander. Not surprisingly, there are signs of biological activity on the surface. Xuanwu projected the images captured by the sensors onto the large screen on the bridge, and there were obvious heavy objects dragging on several screens, as well as traces of wheels and tracks being crushed. Since it is not covered in snow and ice, it must have been left recently.

"Send a few more scout teams and try to make sure the scans cover most of the planet. If UED really established a base here, there would definitely be a land-based starport to transfer personnel and supplies. ”

If it's just a simple scientific exploration, like the work that the Wind Seeker did before joining the fleet, then it really doesn't take a lot of effort to build a land-based starport, at most find a flat place to build a temporary landing area. But since it is necessary to establish a base here, it is still a base on a frost planet that has been purified and has now cooled down, and large engineering equipment, a large number of personnel, equipment and materials are definitely not something that can be dealt with by a random temporary landing area, and it cannot be dealt with at all without hoisting machinery.

Yang Yi was not worried that Xuanwu would attract UED's fleet. He now has Talis's death fleet in his hands, and even if he can't win the fight, it will be easy to escape. In a hurry, he directly asked Xuanwu to use the main cannon to fire at this planet, and it was not impossible to blow up the bastards of the earth. Anyway, the Xuanwu hull has enough space to install a large cross-galaxy communication base station, and now he can get in touch with Talis at any time, and he can be regarded as fearless.

But it didn't come to pass, the land-based starport has not been found, but Xuanwu has detected a number of unknown reflex signals. Soon, several warships were turning around Blacksis.

Not to mention other warships, one of the battleships, Yang Yi, is quite familiar: Jackson's Revenge, the famous Lone Ranger Battle Patrol in the Port of the Dead. It is said that this product will sometimes accept Renault's employment, but he has not seen it once.

This battleship is most famous for its hard life, since the debut of this battleship, there have been dozens of captains, but this old ship is still fighting firmly on the front line of mercenary pirates, and it can also make those unruly guys in the port of the dead give a thumbs up when they talk about it.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to find out here too, Captain Yang." When the communication came in, Yang Yi saw Hill with a smile on his face at a glance, and his face immediately darkened, "It's really a coincidence-"

"-Shut up, Ciel." Yang Yi was really not angry with this mercenary, and directly interrupted him very rudely, "You found some clues, right?" You seem to have brought all your wealth with you this time? ”

"I can't say everything, but it's always polite to welcome guests from afar, isn't it?"

"I only entrusted you with the investigation of that mysterious guy, could it be that your clues tell you that he is hiding here?"

"I've already passed the data to you, you can look at the specifics slowly, if you want, I'll let my people investigate with you, otherwise I'll close the team." As he spoke, Xuanwu silently uploaded several documents to the big screen next to him.

Yang Yi looked at those documents and thought for a moment, then directly agreed: "If you can, please stay and help, at present, we are still blind to how strong the other side is, naturally the more helpers, the better-besides, I have already spent so many credits, I should always let those credits have a little effect, right?" ”

Before he could finish speaking, Hill hung up the comms. Then, the battleships approached in the direction of Xuanwu. Xuanwu saw clearly from the sidelines, and did not make any reaction, but quietly strengthened the vigilance of some military bases facing the direction of those warships.

Ciel: They weren't idle during this time. After Yang Yi's commission, they have been searching for clues about the mysterious person. But if you want to say that this thing looks like an old agent, Hill's gang of mercenary informants have been searching for two or three weeks in the Port of the Dead and have not found any useful clues, this guy seems to have disappeared from the world.

Originally, when Hill was going to give up the search and was about to return the commission to Yang Yi, according to the document that Hill passed to him, an anonymous call gave them a clue - it was a mechanical synthesized voice that told Hill on the phone that the person they were looking for had recently appeared in Keha for a while, and he hung up on the other side without waiting for Hill to ask anything more, and followed the communication to find out that it was the phone number of a tavern in the Port of the Dead.

Now that he's got information from an unknown source, whether it's true or not, Hill at least has to check the situation. But Keha is so big, let alone under the nose of the old emperor, trying to find someone who is deliberately hidden is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. However, Renault immediately sent a clue - he found Hill after returning from Yumoyan and wanted him and his mercenaries to go to Char to help, but Hill was busy with Yang Yi's task, and Yang Yi had promised to take his fleet with him, so he told Renault that he was being commissioned by Yang Yi to investigate the mysterious man and couldn't get out. When Renault learned of this, he suggested that the other party might be related to Sirius Research, after all, he was also investigating the company in Yumoyan that might have something to do with UED.

With a clear goal, it will be easier for Hill to check, but with a clear goal, he will naturally and inevitably be discovered by the other party. Soon after he sent someone to find out the details of the Sirius Research Company, one of Hill's warships was ambushed and sunk, and Hill also received many threats, including threatening letters stuffed into his nest, threatening phone calls, etc., basically forcing him to give up the investigation - this is not surprising to Hill, and the more the other party intimidated, the more it shows that he is on the right path.

Sure enough, his people really found out some cats. Although the company was seized by the Empire shortly after the Battle of the Brood, many of the caravans raided by pirates still had containers bearing the company's logo, most of which were contraband, including arms, drugs, controlled resources, and more. Just three days before Hill got the information, a pirate group had found a container with Sirius Company logo while counting the loot, which contained a controlled resource called diazine, which made the pirate group make a small fortune.

Hill immediately sent someone to investigate who was responsible for signing for the goods every time, especially the containers with the Sirius logo. But the investigation is going hard, because it is clearly smuggling, and it is not easy to find a powerful person who dares to smuggle these controlled products under the nose of the old emperor.

In the end, it was Behemoth who delivered an assist - invading the Imperial security network.
