Chapter 647:   duckweed

Under the family righteousness, no hunting group is willing to bear the infamy of deserters. Even the team of Lawley and Vader, they come from the surface, but currently they are still attached to a family in name. If they escape, then it is on the record of this hunting group. It will leave an extremely disgraceful one, and it will be difficult to be hired by other families later.

Therefore, for such an employment hunting group like Vader, unless the battle is fierce and the situation has reached the point of poverty, they will not choose to retreat unless they plan to disband the hunting group in the future.

Reina choked all the group leaders in the room to death with a single sentence. He wanted to refute, but couldn't find a reason. His sentence to cross out all the heavy firepower areas did make the remaining defense zones comparable, and there was no uneven distribution. So whether you can guard the defense zone you are responsible for is up to your own ability. This is for all hunters.

Ned checked his words and quickly stood up and said, "Mr. Reiner's proposal is excellent. I didn't think about it well before. I have to apologize to you for this. So let's go, I will send you the new defense zone map as soon as possible. You only need to register your defense area with the adjutant. All defense tasks are unified into the fourth level of military merit in accordance with the regulations of the military department. After the battle is over, you can directly exchange it with me, here , I wish you all good luck."

The meeting ended, and the heads of the hunting regiments retreated one after another. Reina was the last to come and was the last to go. When he and Ned were left in the war room, he said solemnly, "Lieutenant Colonel, don't you think it's weird?"

"What's weird?" Ned asked casually as he was packing up his things.

Reina saw the map on the plasma panel: "No enemy scouts were found near the base beforehand. How did they locate the coordinates of our base? How long have we been operating on Rin Shuang, ten years? Twenty years? In other words, we should have a geographical advantage. But now you see, other bases have been attacked by the enemy. How did they quickly locate our bases on a completely unfamiliar planet?"

Ned was picking up a tactical board, and when he heard these words, his action was stagnant, and he could hardly grasp the tactical board. He raised his head suddenly: "You mean, someone leaked the coordinates of the base?"

"We have already had such a guess before, maybe you don't know. Before the arrival of Rin Shuang, when the hunting group fleet was assembled and arranged, it had already encountered an attack. Then when entering Rin Shuang, we were second. Attacks. The two attacks before and after were completely without warning. Didn’t the intelligence department of the Federation even have a trace of the enemy’s dynamics? In other words, some people cooperated with each other to prevent the enemy’s two actions from triggering the Federation’s intelligence. The internet?"

Ned's forehead is already covered with sweat: "If this is the case, it would be terrible. But who would dare to do this, Mr. Reina, do you think this should be reported to the staff headquarters?"

Reina shook his head: "Unless the staff headquarters are filled with wine sacs and rice barrels, they should be aware of the clues. Moreover, this matter is of great importance, and it will never be an ordinary person who can do this. The time and time of the starship assembly The location, the time of entering the planet, and the coordinates of the various bases, which is not a military secret? Being able to know such important information well, needless to say, it must be a big man in the Federation. No matter which big man it is, it is neither you nor me. I can afford it, so I think it's better to keep silent about this matter."

Ned breathed a sigh of relief when Renner said this. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat stains on his forehead: "That's right, it's not easy for a small person like me to sit in this position until now. If you want to intervene in this kind of thing, I'm afraid it's too much. "

Reina nodded, said nothing, and left. The world outside was dark, like a chaotic, completely uncertain prospect. Reina hated this feeling. He would rather kill with real swords and guns on the battlefield than to always guard against the feeling of stabbing a dagger from behind. If the hand that covers the sky is not removed, whether it is the Federation, or the powerhouse participating in the free hunting, or even the family's army, will hide in an extremely disadvantaged situation.

That man is a more terrifying enemy than the alien coalition army. He hides in the dark, playing with the army and the strong like a marionette. Reina guessed that he could even use the enemy's hands to cut off targets that were enemies. For example, a certain family?

He shuddered at his thought.

This is another level of battle, and obviously, he cannot participate in that level of war yet. Not only him, but the vast majority of people are ignorant, and more people can't even see such a deep and far side. The interstellar battlefield has become a mysterious sea, and most people are just a duckweed on the sea. Not to mention seeing through the undercurrents under the sea, not even controlling one's own destiny.

Under the general trend, personal power appears so small. Although Reina didn't want to admit it, he knew that there would always be so few people who could influence the situation. The hateful thing is that he is not one of those people. So he can see some undercurrents under the sea, but still can't change anything. He is like a fish in the ocean, seeing the world more and deeper than duckweed, but he is equally powerless to change anything.

The cold wind swept the snow powder desperately trying to get into Alan's nostrils. He took a deep breath of the cold air on the surface. Instead of freezing on his chest, a flame of joy rose up instead. After seven days and nights of travel, he finally saw the sky again. Now he and Catherine are standing on a high **** covered by snow and ice, and here is a silver world covered by snow and ice.

The undulating hills stretched towards the end of the horizon, and irregular patches of woods were scattered on this silver land like blue-gray patches. Snow fluttered between the sky and the earth, as if the snow on the Frost Star never stopped for a moment, but it continued down to the end of the planet. At this moment, it was sunset, the sky in the distance was stained with a dark yellow, and the roar of beasts came from the woods in the distance. This is a vibrant world.

"This is not the Wintergreen Forest." Catherine frowned slightly, no matter the terrain or the environment, there is a big difference between this place and the Wintergreen Forest, and I don't know where it is on the Frost Star.

They are underground, so naturally they can't tell their position. The previous strong earthquake caused by the Mother of the Earth changed the pattern of the cave maze. It is impossible to go back the same way, Allen and the two can only find another way out. After spending nearly a week, they didn't know how far they had gone underground. I only remember passing through the nests where the three lurking monsters live, and there were several violent conflicts with the underground creatures. There were countless lurking monsters and other creatures that died in their hands, and the two almost smashed from the underground to the ground.

Don't talk about Catherine at the moment, even Ellen is full of murderous aura.

"Wherever it is, we finally figured it out. If I can, I don't want to go underground anymore." Allen said casually.

Catherine snorted coldly: "Don't forget what you promised me. If you dare to break your promise, I will make you look good."

"I will keep my promise, don't worry." Allen shrugged and said, "So, what are your plans?"

"Of course it is back to the sunrise. I have been out for so long. General Roussen should be furious. In fact, I haven't seen him now. It's quite unexpected." Catherine scanned the scenery below the **** and said: "Only the sunrise. Later, I can tell the direction, and then return to the starship to meet my people."

"You don't have a communicator or something?"

Catherine shook her head and smiled: "I stepped on it myself."

Allen showed an expression of "it should be so". He rubbed his hands and said: "It seems we have to stay here for one night, and then tomorrow, we will part ways."

He is going back to Kaiyan base, the route is probably somewhat different from Catherine. Catherine returned to the cave where they had drilled before: "You go find some branches or something, we have to make a fire, unless you want to spend the night coldly."

"Yes, my general." Allen jumped down the hill and dived into a small wood below it. Before long, he not only brought back enough firewood to be used as fuel, but also shot a wolf-like beast. This was their dinner.

The fire was shining in the small cave, and a bonfire was burning at the entrance of the cave, illuminating the surrounding hillsides. On this gloomy night, the puppet illuminated by the bonfire is like a small world left behind.

Only belongs to the little world of Alan and Catherine.

The barbecue made a light crackling on the fire It was the sound of the fat in the meat dripping into the fire. Allen wrapped a few slices of roasted meat in a leaf and placed it in front of Catherine: "Eat it, but be careful about it."

Catherine picked up the smallest piece of it and pushed the others to Allen: "You eat some too, I'll just eat this piece."

Allen watched as she tore the barbecue into strips and threw it into her mouth to chew. She ate very quietly, as if enjoying every scent of barbecue. The quiet Catherine is like a girl next door. Allen looked at her and said: "With your potential, you should be able to advance to the rank of dominator in a few years. At that time, life will usher in a huge transformation. The most important thing is It is the natural life extension. At that time, it was not a problem for you to live for one or two hundred years. So I can’t figure out why you are so obsessed with the pursuit of a long life, especially at your age. It seems..."

"It doesn't make sense, is it?" Catherine looked at him, her deep eyes illuminated by the firelight: "Yes. I have great potential, I am in a high position, and my life has just begun. I should spend as much as your teacher, Marshal Greed Wolf. Time is right. But I am not Windsor Bello, and you will never know what I have experienced. In short, I have my reasons."
