Volume One Chapter 20 Emergency Notice

The Fat Fish continued to climb, and at this time a communication connection came in.

Demiken connected the communication, and Zyra's image emerged.

"I'm sorry." Although Demikan didn't know how Zyra found out so quickly, this was indeed his mood at this time.

Zyra's expression was solemn. She was startled when she heard Demiken's words, and then she reacted.

"Are your casualties serious?"

"Thirteen miners are back." Demikan replied.

Zyra was silent for a few seconds and said, "There is a problem with the water resources collection, and we need to temporarily recruit collectors."

"Very serious?" Demiken also felt something was wrong.

"It's very dangerous and serious, but there is no choice, so the superiors decided to force the recruitment. All the collected collectors who are recruited will enjoy three times the mission points bonus this time." Zyla replied seriously.

Demikan's expression moved slightly and he said, "I understand."

In the hangar, Jones patted Chitaki on the shoulder and said, "Let's go and rest. Don't think too much. Coming back alive is the best thing."

Chitaki nodded and just walked a few steps with Jones.

The announcement sounded.

"Urgent notice, due to changes in the water resources collection mission, the Fat Fish will change its voyage and go to support. All collectors will enter a rest standby state, and the mechanics will inspect all miners."

Jones stopped, with a shocked expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" Chitaki asked.

Jones glanced at Qiantaki and said, "I don't know whether you should be lucky or unlucky. This kind of thing can happen to you."

After hearing this, Chitaki probably understood, "There's nothing you can do if you hit me."

Standing aside, Aina's face didn't look good, and she seemed to understand what happened.

"Go back and rest and try to adjust to a good state."

Chitaki looked at the other collectors around, and their expressions were extremely ugly.

In the end, everyone dispersed silently. With no choice, they had no choice but to accept it.

The fat fish is high in the sky, flying towards the mission destination.

The temperature is getting lower and lower, and various prompts and electronic languages ​​​​are constantly ringing.

In the control room, Quark also had a headache looking at the information displayed on the screen. There was a bloody battle on the glacier. The Hibernian had reinforced more than 800 Guardians, 50 medium-sized frigates, and 100 light frigates.

The area over there was a meat grinder battlefield, and no one expected that a Zerg nest would appear there.

The reason why miners were recruited is also very simple. There was a problem with the collection of the last giant iceberg, and more than a dozen of the alloy chains originally fixed on the iceberg were cut off.

As a result, the three giant plundering ships lifted up the iceberg and tilted it.

The consequence of the tilt was that the three giant plundering ships were directly pulled down.

Fortunately, miners rushed in to stop him and stabilized the situation.

Although the situation is now stable, more and more bugs are emerging from the wormhole, and it will be a matter of time before the situation collapses.

There are only two methods now. The first is to abandon the iceberg.

The second is to ask the miners to go up and re-fix the alloy chains.

It is obvious that in the end the commander of the Hibernian chose the second method.

"How far are we from our destination?" Demikan walked over and asked hoarsely.

Quark raised his head and could clearly see the bloodshot eyes in Demiken's eyes. He must have not rested well.

"It is expected to enter the designated coordinates in three hours, and the rest is up to them."

"I see."

"Is this resource extraction really that important?" Quark asked hesitantly.

"Water resources are the most consumed of all resources. We need to replenish them. This replenishment is very important, otherwise we will be very passive in the future."

"Doesn't the Hippogriff have backup resources?"

"You won't use it unless you have to." Demiken explained.

"Well, I can only wish them good luck." Quark replied helplessly.

On the other side, the captain of the Mushroom has received the latest information, and plunder ships from other areas are about to arrive.

"Let their miners enter from the designated route, and there will be dedicated guards to protect their safety."

"Already told them, just..."

"Just what?"

"Come to support the miners. There are less than a hundred units left."

"what happened?"

"They all encountered various problems. If this trip was included, the final result would probably be even more ugly."

Cora replied seriously, "Even so, the mission must be completed this time."

Chitaki had already boarded his miner at this time, and the Fat Fish had entered the designated area and was suspended in the air. It was still a little far away from the battlefield, and it would be very dangerous to get close, so the Fat Fish did not continue to approach. This journey required a miner.

Go by yourself.

After all the fuel and other supplies on the miners were replenished, the miners separated from the Fat Fish one by one and headed towards the designated route given.

They didn't fly very far when they ran into fifteen Guardian mechas.

These are here to escort you there.

Seeing these guards, the collectors above the miners couldn't help but relax a little.

Huan gives a reminder,

"A large number of Zergs are found ahead, and the danger is extremely high."

"I know."

"Avoid recommended."

"Some things cannot be avoided." Chitaki explained.

"I don't quite understand." Huan gave a confused answer.

"You still need to grow up." Chitaki replied.

The guardian's communication connection came in.

"We are about to enter the destination battlefield. Please be sure to follow behind. Even if you encounter monsters, don't panic and run away. We will be responsible for your safety."

"Okay." Chitaki replied.

As they get closer to the battlefield, insects with thin wings and curved bodies begin to appear. They are soft flying insects with a body length of three meters and very hard tentacles that can secrete a high-acid solution. They are numerous in number.

"Form a cone-shaped formation with me as the center and charge in." The lead guardian mecha said.

"Yes, Captain."

“All miners stay in the middle and keep up, don’t fall behind.”

After saying that, the leading guard began to forcefully attack and rush in, and exploding projectiles were ejected one after another.

Rumble...

The bugs fell like rain.

Even so, the advance was still very hard.

At this time, Gen simulated a clear enemy holographic distribution map in Chitaki's mind, and Chitaki's scalp felt numb as he watched it.

"You need to pay attention to things that can pose a threat to you and make predictions, such as this." Huan gave a prompt.

Suddenly, a line of guidance pointed from a bug to a miner in my mind.

Just as Chitaki reacted, a commotion broke out outside.

"Help."

I saw a soft flying insect breaking through the defensive circle and crashing into a miner.

"No, save me!"

"Don't panic! Steady the fuselage."

The soft flying insects kept hitting the miners with their tentacles, and from time to time they would decompose liquid to dissolve the armor plate, making a crackling sound. In fact, the armor of the miners was very thick. After all, the stinging Hortan tail, which is not a metal tail cone, would not be that easy.

Break open.

But the collector inside made a fatal mistake.
