The help the lieutenant colonel was talking about was the three prisoners.
The three of them are all hunters, and have a certain degree of popularity and influence in the gray area of the alliance.
After getting out of trouble this time, they cautiously asked, can we do something to redeem ourselves?
Because this semi-occupied area is so terrifying, they really don't want to go through this place and reach the entrance of the passage.
However, the lieutenant colonel did not coddle them and said that this was impossible!
But at the same time, he also hinted that if you have the ability, use it now to ensure that you will not be treated as prisoners of war in the future.
His military rank is not high enough, so the promise may not be effective, but there is a digital phantom over there... Well, you know!
But after Qu Jianlei heard about it, he couldn't think of anything he needed help with.
After thinking about it, he said, "Are there any desolate planets in this semi-occupied area that are not occupied by aliens?"
He still didn't want to go back because the experiment wasn't over yet.
The three hunters really couldn't answer this question. They just said that they had not stayed in the semi-occupied area for long.
The lieutenant colonel and battalion commander quit now, "You guys are doing your own thing. The opportunity has been given to you. If you can't seize it, you can't blame us."
The three people discussed it and said, "Wait a moment, let's get together and discuss it."
The lieutenant colonel and battalion commander also knew that these three people were not loyal people, so he sent two people to look after them, and then came to discuss with Qu Jianlei.
He said that he borrowed the starship mainly because he wanted to contact the other two battalions of his regiment.
It is not appropriate to return until they finally meet together, otherwise their battalion will be separated from the battle independently, which would be wrong in nature.
They are currently experiencing this situation, and other battalions may not be much stronger, and ammunition and living supplies cannot be guaranteed.
Qu Jianlei thought about this and gave them another battalion-level ship and two company-level ships.
Some of the relevant ammunition was also allocated to them.
As for daily necessities... that's not necessary. The army really doesn't lack these. They can survive just by taking nutritional supplements.
After these things were done, the discussion between the three people came to fruition. They made a list of things that could help.
Qu Jianlei took a look and unexpectedly discovered that many of the relationships between these three people were actually on the Taiqing planet.
In this case, he was not polite and said simply: I am interested in your intelligence network in Taiqing.
The lieutenant colonel and battalion commander was not surprised. With his rank, he had no access to the secrets of the relationship between Digital Phantom and Tai Qingxing.
After receiving the information, Qu Jianlei drove a company-class ship and disappeared into the distance.
The lieutenant colonel and battalion commander gathered all the prisoners he received into a cabin.
And he told the soldiers guarding him that if any abnormalities were discovered, these prisoners would be killed directly.
The deputy major hesitated and made a suggestion.
"These were all captured by digital phantoms. Should we interrogate them to see what they have experienced?"
The lieutenant colonel and battalion commander actually wanted to do this, but he was actually murmuring in his heart, so he frowned and answered.
"They should know some secrets, and only those from Digital Phantom will repeatedly emphasize that they are optimistic about these people."
Should we inquire about the secrets of that team?
The major thought about it and put forward his own opinion: If this is really the case, we should interrogate him.
In this way, no matter what accident happens in the future, we will have insiders who can find ways to report it to the war zone.
There's no way around it, the Digital Phantom is so mysterious that the military has to go to great lengths to find out more about it.
However, it didn't take long for them to get unexpected information, "Spatial fluctuations and space distortion caused by time?"
This is big news, "According to their observations, it should not be a natural phenomenon... What is the Digital Phantom doing?"
"It's better not to think about it," the lieutenant colonel and battalion commander said with a frown, "go back quickly!"
Two months later, Qu Jianlei finally perfected the time differential, and the next step was to blend the two together.
But this will take quite some time.
Qu Jianlei first returned to the Future Star, found Qianhe, and first inquired about the recent movements of the Digital Phantom.
Qian He was quite surprised by this, "Aren't you from Digital Phantom? Do you still want me to inquire?"
Qu Jianlei said that he was doing a more dangerous experiment and did not want to affect the team and it was not convenient to go back.
Qian He was a little doubtful about this reason. He even doubted whether this person was a fake.
But he didn't dare to refuse. After two days of inquiring, he came back to report that there had been no movement in the Digital Phantom recently.
Then Qu Jianlei asked the other party to provide a larger place with better concealment effect.
Because he installed the computing unit and ran the experimental data.
This is the last step in building the Black Horse Tower.
Qian He really had some doubts in his heart as to whether this person's origin was that, but the problem was...he couldn't afford to offend him!
He could only ask cautiously, "Sir, have you heard that the Digital Phantom is strictly investigating impostors?"
"The Mining Management Department was tortured to death by them."
Qu Jianlei replied disapprovingly, "When I ask you to do things, you have to spend money, right? Are you also paying for your hard work?"
When Qian He heard this, he lost his temper - even if he was pretending, he didn't do anything else, right?
However, it is really difficult to find a relatively private place in Future Star.
This is the technological center of the empire. Not only is it heavily guarded, but various surveillance methods are emerging in endlessly.
Fortunately, the influence of the Qianhe family is indeed not small. It took him five days to find such a manor.
It was a manor located in the middle of the mountain, covering an area of more than 50,000 square meters and surrounded by lush woods.
This is a well-known wealthy area in the future. Although it is not the top wealthy area, those who can live here are either rich or noble.
Qian He said that this was a villa belonging to a partner of the family, and he bought it.
Not only is this place relatively secretive, but the key is that it can tolerate large energy fluctuations - it is normal for rich people's homes to consume a lot of energy.
This is specifically considered for the computing unit, because the area is not too large and energy fluctuations are difficult to cover.
Qu Jianlei had to admit that the place this guy chose was pretty good.
Qian He wanted to waive the bill for him, but Qu Jianlei refused without hesitation, "I won't take advantage of you."
On the day he installed the computing unit, Qianhe heard new news.
"A while ago, the digital phantom appeared in the alliance again, and rescued the soldiers of the empire from the alien encirclement."
His information is a bit lagging behind, but it is already quite remarkable. It is impossible for ordinary people to get similar information.
Qu Jianlei nodded calmly, "Okay, I'll ask you to purchase some supplies."
Five days later in the evening, Qian He came to the manor alone and brought corresponding supplies.
After Qu Jianlei saw him, he ignored him and just sighed behind him, "Why are you...why?"
Qian He felt the sweat all over his body stand on end, and turned around suddenly to look back.
More than twenty meters behind him, a figure appeared.
Seeing the palace dress style that was popular in the empire, his mouth opened in astonishment, "Is it...the goddess?"
Jing Yuexin didn't look at him at all, but looked at Qu Jianlei faintly, "Why?"
"Experiments are very dangerous," Qu Jianlei replied calmly, "If you are not careful, someone will die."
Qian He was surprised to find that the famous Goddess Jing actually looked a little resentful.
"Danger...is the reason?"
"I don't even dare to stay in the empire," Qu Jianlei replied bravely, "You should also know that I was in the alliance a while ago."
Qian He opened his mouth in astonishment - the person in front of him was the one who rescued people from the alien encirclement?
"Well," Jing Yuexin nodded. After hearing this, the coldness on her face retreated slightly, "Space... and time?"
"Yes," Qu Jianlei nodded again, "You know... how dangerous it is."
Jing Yuexin thought for a moment and looked at Qian He, "This person knows... a bit too much."
Qian He was so frightened that he begged for mercy, "Goddess, you don't dare to reveal your secret even if you kill me."
"As long as you know the consequences," Jing Yuexin nodded slightly, "Okay, you can leave."
Qian He put down the holding talisman and stepped back towards the courtyard gate, "Then I'll come back later."
"Here's the money!" Qu Jianlei sent a stack of banknotes in the air, "Don't say no."
Qian He caught the bank note, turned around and ran away.
Qu Jianlei looked into the void again and sighed, "Senior Xizhao, your concealment skills are getting better and better."
A ruler appeared, "Oh, I can't help it. You've been missing for so long, and we almost went to the Alliance to look for you!"
Ever since Qu Jianlei disappeared, Jing Yuexin and others have been looking for him.
The longer the time goes on, the more intense their search becomes.
When the military went to Dawn Base and asked what kind of tests Digital Phantom was doing in the Alliance, Jing Yuexin almost went to the Alliance immediately.
In the end, Dogan stopped her and said that we couldn't find the boss in the empire, so going to the alliance...does it make sense?
At this moment, Qian He inquired about some information about the digital phantoms and was targeted by them.
In fact, there are many people inquiring about the Digital Phantom, but after all, his identity is quite special and deserves attention.
Then they learned that this guy had purchased some rare materials half a year ago.
This really looks like the boss's handiwork. The key is the date of purchase, which was shortly after the boss disappeared.
Qian He was immediately listed as a key suspect, and then... Qu Jianlei was exposed.
All this sounds easy to say, but considering that the empire has a population of nearly 100 billion, you can see how hard they worked.
The most important thing is that they can't let the outside world know that their boss is missing!
Xizhao said with some resentment, "If I can't find you again, I will be demolished by Xiao Jing."
Qu Jianlei coughed dryly, "Well, that's what happened... Let me tell you about my experiments over the past six months."
Jing Yuexin was stunned for a moment, and then she said something incomprehensible, "I won't care about your divination from now on."
