"That guy slipped away just like that?
Why do I feel like my eyes are playing tricks on me again? "The only person who could say something like that was Four Eyes.
"Yeah, he summoned so many people, bragged for a while, and then slipped away?
Hey, hey, that's not right. "The only person who could answer Four Eyes' question was a Russian.
"Slipped away?" Big Handsome was confused. "It'd be weird if he could run away. This is my starship."
Then, he limped forward, only to be stopped by Ding Meng. "Don't go. The control hall has been tampered with."
Ding Meng had said so much to Bai Yue because he wanted to buy time for Little Rascal and Little Ai. The two of them had been trying their best to hack into the starship's main system.
However, Little Rascal and Little Ai were not Xin Jie. They did not have the kind of professional hacking skills that Xin Jie possessed, so the feedback they received was not good news.
Big Handsome, however, did not know this. He still did not believe it. "Tampered with?
What could that bastard know about tampering? "
Ding Meng sighed. "Even if it's your starship, it's the same. That's the truth."
As soon as he said that, the entire rescue port suddenly lit up with a red light, and the system's voice rang out. "All crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, all crew members, please evacuate immediately. I repeat, all crew members, all crew members, please evacuate immediately …"
"F * ck." Big Handsome's eyes widened.
The so-called dangerous state meant that the starship's main system had been set to be in great danger and was about to disintegrate. The purpose of this was to let the crew escape as quickly as possible and minimize losses.
If it was set to self-destruct, even if the crew could escape, they might not be able to avoid the aftermath of the explosion. The Sirius spaceship that was chasing after them would also be buried. It seemed that Bai Yue was still afraid of Yan Fengwei and did not dare to go too far.
As for the lock-on mode, it was even easier to understand. Once it was set, it could not be changed. At least, with Ding Meng's group's skill level, it could not be changed. If Xin Jie had been there, there might have been a chance.
"That bastard."
King of Nightmares cursed angrily. He understood Bai Yue's sinister intentions. Once the transport ship disintegrated, the spaceships chasing after it would form a huge search net, and no one would be able to escape. In the end, if they fell into the hands of the Sky Wolf Army, they would most likely die.
Putting everything else aside, Ding Meng had killed Ren Zhan, killed so many mercenaries, and destroyed so many facilities. The chances of Yan Fengwei letting them go were close to zero.
"Let's go back!" Ding Meng made a prompt decision. He let go of Dai Yi and walked towards the Blazing Shark spaceship.
Nightmare hesitated, "Then what about this woman?
Take them away together? "
He was referring to Yan Jie. Yan Jie was still unconscious, supported by Four-eyed and Hairy.
Ding Meng's heart hardened again. "Their target is her. Put her into the escape pod and launch her in the opposite direction. That way, we can buy some time. Let's go!"
Hearing this, Four-eyed could only pout helplessly. If the goddess was launched into space, there was a chance that the Sky Wolf Army would not be able to rescue her. However, there was no other way.
The Blazing Shark spaceship quickly started up and flew out of the rescue port of the transport ship.
Looking from space, the transport ship had stopped flying long ago. Furthermore, the two stabilizers emitted two red rings of light, flashing in space. This was a warning to the spaceships behind that this starship was about to be in danger.
The main control panel restarted, and the interstellar map was brought up again.
King of Nightmares' expression was serious. "I wonder if the Sky Wolf Army's spaceships will stop when they see this warning signal?"
The commander was obviously not satisfied. He reached out his left hand to fiddle with the map. "Which route did Bai Yue take?"
King of Nightmares shook his head. "It's useless."
The commander asked, "Why?"
King of Nightmares sighed. "The Swordfish spaceship's speed is much faster than mine. We can't catch up."
The commander wanted to ask more questions, but Ding Meng said, "Don't think about that bag. If he can set up this trap, he must have set it up carefully. The Swordfish spaceship might not be the last thing he left behind. There might be another ship nearby to receive him."
King of Nightmares agreed. "Mr Ting is right. The most important thing now is to think of a way to protect ourselves. My ship doesn't have much energy left. We need to find a place to recharge."
The commander could not help but ask, "What do you mean?"
King of Nightmares zoomed in on the map. The map showed that the transport ship had just floated out of the Zoysia system. The green dot representing the Blazing Shark spaceship was facing two different routes, one up and the other down.
Up was the direction of Nebula KV3545, and down was a flashing purple galaxy. King of Nightmares explained, "If we fly in the direction of Nebula KV3545, we should be able to contact the Green Arrow Corps' base. If Mr Ting asks for help, it shouldn't be a problem. After all, you and Miss Dai were hired by the Green Arrow Corps."
Ding Meng also looked at the map and saw that the red dots were slowly closing in on the transport ship. "If I ask for help, how long will it take for us to meet up with the Green Arrow Corps' spaceship?"
King of Nightmares said, "At our current speed, it'll take us at least 40 hours, but if Yan Feng insists on chasing us to the end, he'll be able to catch up to us within 36 hours at the slowest."
Ding Meng's expression did not look too good. "What about the other route?"
King of Nightmares continued to fiddle with the map. The purple galaxy was quickly zoomed in, and it could be seen that this was a much more complicated galaxy than the Zoysia system. The entire galaxy was a strange red, and this red seemed to come from the center of the galaxy. Only the edges were purple, and the planet at the edge was the darkest purplish-black color.
The commander's face paled. "This is Pandora Virus IV of the E system's Nebula?"
King of Nightmares' expression was complicated. "Yes, Pandora IV. It's a poisonous planet. Our spaceship can land there, but Yan Feng and the others won't be able to get there."
Ding Meng sighed helplessly. "To be safe, let's go there."
King of Nightmares did not say anything else. He turned around and bowed deeply to Ding Meng.
Ding Meng was stunned. "What are you doing?"
King of Nightmares took a deep breath. "I live on that planet."
The commander was also stunned. "You … you're so good at poisoning. So, you were born on the Poisonous Planet?"
He seemed to have figured out a lot of things at once. "No wonder you've been active in the nearby nebulas for so long. So, you've been hiding there, and that's why no one could find you."
King of Nightmares turned around, and his expression changed again. It became dark and scary. "You shouldn't know this secret. So, you must die."
The commander took two steps back in shock. He was so nervous that he could not speak. "You … You … You …"
King of Nightmares suddenly turned around. "Mr. Ting, I told you that I was going to save someone, and you promised me at the time. As long as we leave Flying Star City, you'll slowly figure out a way with me."
Ding Meng pondered and said, "That's right. That promise still stands. I'll always keep my promise. Whether that place is the Poisonous Planet or not, I'll go with you."
Dai Yi looked at Ding Meng with admiration in her eyes. She hurried over and said, "Ding Meng, I'll go with you, too."
King of Nightmares said, "Then, it's up to you whether Commander Hu will die or not. I'll listen to your opinion, Mr. Ting."
The commander was nervous again. Even he didn't believe that Ding Meng did not want to kill him.
Ding Meng sighed. It was hard to tell the grudge between him and the commander now. If the commander had not listened to his arrangement and contacted the carrier in Flying Star City, it would have been hard to say whether or not the commander could have escaped alive.
Ding Meng looked at the commander and said, "Forget it. I hope you can keep the secret of King of Nightmares. If it's leaked out, then I'm sorry. No matter where you go, I'll still come to find you."
The commander felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly raised his hand and said, "Ding Meng, no, Ding … Brother Ding, thank you for not killing me. I've survived until now. If you hadn't reminded me in Flying Star City, I would have been sold out by Bai Yue and the others. If I still dare to cause trouble for no reason, you don't need to look for me. I'll come to you with my life. If you have any orders in the future, I won't refuse …"
When he saw that the commander was obedient in front of Ding Meng, the four-eyed man also ran over to surrender. "Oh, Brother Ding, we won't talk nonsense. Don't worry. If I, the four-eyed man, talk nonsense, I'll be blinded for the rest of my life …"
Before he could finish his words, he was kicked away by the Russian. "Brother Ding, don't listen to the four-eyed man's bragging. I'm the most honest. I'll hit wherever you point. I'm not a mischievous person. Give me a cigarette, and I can give you peace for a week …"
The four-eyed man got up from the ground and slapped him. "Motherf * cker, you said that the old red plum was for me. In the end, you didn't even give me a f * cking cigarette butt. You're so quiet, motherf * cker …"
"Motherf * cker, you hit my eyes again." The Russian did not show any signs of weakness and quickly wrestled with the four-eyed man.
The two's martial arts were simple and straightforward — kicking each other's butts!
Ding Meng ignored the quarrel between the two. Instead, he lowered his head and asked, "What planet are we going to Pandora now?"
Little Rascal's eyes drooped. "It's Pandora Virus4, which means Virus Planet. It can also be called the Poison Barrier Planet."
Xiao Ai said, "According to the database, Planet V4 was originally a planet with a high mineral content, but the radiation was very high. Over time, it caused the metals and plants to mutate, resulting in a high level of toxins. Ordinary creatures have a hard time surviving there, and almost no one visits that place. As for how the mutation happened, there are no detailed records in the database. Furthermore, there is no detailed information on the specific situation of Planet V4. That's all we know, but ACT5570, you won't have any problems going there. The K virus is basically immune to most viruses, especially biological toxins and man-made chemicals."
Ding Meng said, "Alright, then we'll talk about it when we get there."
