The news of Class A's disappearance was still very exciting to Linghu. He hoped that Heitian could take him away that night.
Qu Jianlei sent him into the crypt first. After thinking about it, he picked up the phone and called Youyou.
Youyou didn't know what she was busy with. She didn't get through for a long time, and Qu Jianlei didn't dare to keep calling.
After waiting for two hours, he even wondered if she was injured last night before Youyou responded.
She was not injured, but she was very busy now, mainly because the Star Thieves were dealing with the aftermath of yesterday's battle.
Youyou still belongs to the "unreliable" kind, so she is responsible for cleaning up the ruins and rescuing people in the ruins.
She didn't do it herself, but supervised the laborers' work, but she was also very busy.
Qu Jianlei told her frankly that Linghu was also at No. 13 Kaixuan Road - the secret of this place had been revealed.
Youyou doesn't think so. The relay tower has collapsed, and the empire's investigation team may be on the way. Should this secret be kept?
As for where Pan Yifu and Bald Zi were, she didn't know very well - after all, they were not very trusted.
She didn't even know if those two were captured, but what was certain was that a total of three A-levels were captured last night.
Qu Jianlei wanted to know the roots of the Supreme, but Youyou still didn't know.
Then Qu Jianlei said that he wanted to take Linghu and leave overnight - it was easy for him to leave alone, but it would be difficult to take another person with him.
Youyou was a little embarrassed, "I'm not trusted now, how about you stay there until the imperial fleet arrives?"
Qu Jianlei thought about it, called Linghu out of the crypt, and asked him if he wanted to stay here.
"What I mean is that you can rest here and recover... I will definitely not spend time here forever."
"No, I want to leave too," Linghu couldn't help but shake his head, "It's not that I can't trust you, but it would be too embarrassing if I fell into the hands of the star thief."
In fact, it's not just a matter of face. He comes from a wealthy family, and the Star Thieves also know very well that the ransom they extort will definitely be sky-high.
Youyou thought about it and then replied, "I can try to move a little bit, but I want two pardon quotas."
Regardless of whether she betrayed the empire or not, she is currently working for the Star Thieves. This is an indisputable fact.
"It's easy to say two indicators," Linghu replied simply, "but it's best not to have a bitter owner."
"If there is a suffering master, I hope the suffering master's family is not too powerful, otherwise he will at least have to work in the community."
Community service is the lightest punishment. His answer was not only sincere, but also quite domineering - no one is afraid of suffering!
"Okay," Youyou replied in a deep voice, "It shouldn't take too long to wait for my news."
But in fact, it took her quite a while. Two hours later, an off-road vehicle stopped at the door of No. 13.
Two people got out of the car, took the keys, opened the courtyard door and walked in.
Linghu already knew that Youyou was a female and had a B-level attribute, but when he saw another man, his face sank: Is it a trap?
His remaining left hand began to knead, "So it's you, how dare you come here alone?"
The man was none other than the Fourth Master of the Star Thieves, who was also of the same metallic A-level.
The Fourth Master glanced at him and said calmly, "I can't do anything to you with two hands, but can you do it with one hand?"
Seeing that he didn't yell loudly, Linghu breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still said very straightforwardly, "If the other target for pardon is you, I can't do anything. You are a military prisoner."
Youyou said calmly, "I am also a military target...is it difficult?"
"You are different," Linghu shook his head. He had already heard Heitian tell her about her situation.
Although he was curious about how Krishna could know such a person, he would not ask about insignificant things.
He made his position very clear, "Even now, you are still a prisoner of war and have not participated in any battles. It is very easy to protect you."
The Fourth Master waved his hand and spoke simply, "I don't need your protection. Black Sky, you rescued Hongyun yesterday...I didn't stop you."
Qu Jianlei nodded. This person was indeed present at that time, but he was really not sure whether he was discovered by this person when he rescued Hongyun.
At that time, his mind was basically focused on the Supreme Being, and he really couldn't distract himself from paying attention to others.
"You may not be able to stop it...Okay, what do you want to say?"
"Tell Hongyun," the fourth master replied solemnly, "I just hope he can send a message to the military."
"This is about the defeat of Kenan Nebula. The fault does not lie with the soldiers at the front."
Before Qu Jianlei could say anything, Linghu reacted first. He took a deep breath, "Kainan Nebula...are you involved in this matter?"
The Fourth Master looked at him and said coldly, "It's none of your business!"
"It's best if it's none of my business." Surprisingly, Linghu didn't care. He let out a deep breath, "I didn't hear anything today."
Qu Jianlei gave him a look of disdain, and that's all you took on.
But he also understood that even though he didn't know what Kenan Nebula was about, he probably wouldn't be able to handle that kind of trouble.
So he just nodded, "There's no problem with the message, but I can't guarantee Mr. Hongyun's attitude."
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Qu Jianlei felt that when he said the word "adult", the other person seemed to smile a little.
Could it be that Youyou told this guy that I am already an A-level cultivator?
Anyway, the fourth master didn't show any surprise at his words. He nodded, "Hongyun is quite reasonable."
"Otherwise, do you think that he, a water-type person, survived yesterday and was rescued by you in time... just lucky?"
Qu Jianlei's eyes lit up when he heard this, "By the way, how is Pan Yifu?"
"He was sent to the starship and imprisoned," the Fourth Master said casually. "He was injured by Tang Zhigao himself and couldn't escape."
Linghu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but interject, "Who is Tang Zhigao?"
The Fourth Master looked at him with a hint of disdain in his eyes, "Of course he is from the Star Thieves."
Qu Jianlei didn't know why these two were so unresponsive, but he had no intention of asking, "Who are the other two captured A-levels?"
"One is an old ghost and the other is a bald man," the fourth master replied casually, "Baiyi is dead."
Qu Jianlei asked again, "Where are they being held?"
"Then it's not convenient for me to ask," the fourth master replied calmly, "we all perform our duties."
"The Star Thieves are also in chaos right now, and the morale of the military is unstable. It's impossible for me to make random inquiries at this time."
Linghu couldn't help but say again, "You'd better find Pan Yifu, his energy is not inferior to Hongyun."
"What kind of energy can he have?" The Fourth Master snorted disdainfully, "A rank-A defense guard from a junk star."
"That's not what you said," Linghu said seriously, "Pan Yifu knows the secret of the black box."
"What's the secret of the black box?" The fourth master was shocked at first when he heard this, and then he came to his senses.
"Are you talking about what he did last night? Haha, guarding level A, if you know more about the secrets of guarding, it will be more powerful?"
He gave Bai Linghu another disdainful look, "Hongyun has participated in more military projects than you think. Who do you think is more powerful?"
Linghu finally shut up when he heard this. When it came to the military's tactics, he really had no say.
Qu Jianlei thought for a while and felt that there was nothing more to ask, "Then when can we set off?"
The Fourth Master hesitated for a moment, glanced at Youyou, and then coughed slightly, "Well... let's wait for an hour."
"Haha," Linghu couldn't help laughing when he saw this, "One hour, are you sure you can last that long?"
What was rare was that this time the Fourth Master did not attack him, but secretly glanced at Youyou.
The current light is not very good, but you can see that his face is slightly red.
"There must be some reason for us to come to this yard, right? In an hour, it will be my turn to inspect."
Youyou looked at ease.
Although she was a woman, she was still very young. It was impossible for her not to understand this kind of thing, but she pretended not to hear it.
An hour later, Youyou drove, and the Fourth Master himself sat in the passenger seat and sent the two of them out of the core area.
Once they arrived at the control area, the intensity of the Star Thieves' patrols was much lighter, but it was certainly more rigorous than before the night attack.
The off-road vehicle stopped next to a forest, and Qu Jianlei and Linghu got out of the vehicle.
The fourth master threw a backpack and said, "There is some medicine in it, but not much."
Qu Jianlei took the backpack and couldn't help but ask again, "When will the star thieves who besieged the pioneer group withdraw?"
The fourth master shook his head, "I can't say for sure. There are still differences. Many people advocate increasing the intensity of the attack."
"Isn't this self-deception?" Linghu couldn't help but speak again, "The relay towers are gone, who can we deceive?"
The fourth master replied lukewarmly, "In war, this method is very common. Active attack will make it easier to escape from the battlefield."
It can be heard that he is also inclined to support this suggestion.
But Linghu didn't agree with what he said, "Of course I know that progress is the way to retreat, but Star Thieves... Haha, I'm not optimistic about it."
The Fourth Master was silent for a long time before saying, "Even if they are just a mob, this is their home base."
Linghu's mouth moved, looking disapproving, but in the end he just said, "Let's go, thank you for your help."
He and Qu Jianlei took advantage of the night to leave. After walking a long way, they snorted, "Old nest? Haha, it won't be anymore soon."
Qu Jianlei asked curiously, "Lord Linghu, according to your estimate, how long will it take for the empire's fleet to arrive?"
"The longest is no more than three months," Linghu replied casually. "The shortest is, maybe ten days."
Qu Jianlei was stunned when he heard this, "How can the difference be so big?"
Linghu replied casually, "This is a bit interesting. First of all, we need to see how long it takes for the maintenance personnel to discover the fault."
"Secondly, we need to see how the empire plans to handle the affairs here."
"If the army is called in, the army's departure will definitely be a process, and it won't be too fast."
"If we recruit a few supreme commanders, it might be faster, but the timing of the supreme commanders is hard to grasp and we can't say for sure."
Qu Jianlei frowned slightly when he heard this: Is there still a Supreme Being coming?
