Although he thought so, he could not say it out loud. Ding Meng looked at the map thoughtfully. "If that's the case, then the pirates who attacked here definitely did not come from Cypress Green Planet. It's unrealistic for them to fly such a long way here."
Fang Zhenghao nodded. "In fact, the scale of this Extreme Pirate Force is already very large. At least in the outer space of the Federation, its influence has penetrated all the major forces, and there is no lack of ability to deal with the various forces within the Federation."
Ding Meng hesitated. "What do you mean?"
Fang Zhenghao looked at him, and his expression became serious. "I can only say that in the argument with Zhuang Weiming just now, you analyzed many things well. I'm afraid that some things are man-made."
Ding Meng was silent and said, "It seems unrealistic to launch a large-scale counterattack now."
Fang Zhenghao was also silent. That was what he wanted to express. Besides, Green Arrow did not have the strength to launch a large-scale long-distance counterattack. "Of course, this incident will not be over just like that."
He closed the map and turned on his wristwatch. A mirror image of a person popped up on the light screen. This person was slightly plump and had a round face. Even if he did not smile, people could feel that there was a faint smile on his face. He was the kind of person who was harmless to humans and animals.
Of course, it would be wrong to think so. Fang Zhenghao took the initiative to explain. "This person is called Hu Li. His current identity is a fourth-class citizen of the Holy Grail Federation. But according to my investigation, in fact, he secretly serves the Extreme Pirate Force. This person has a brother called Hu Biao, who is the commander of the fourth regiment of the Extreme Pirate Force."
After all, he was the commander of a large regiment, so he was quite well-informed.
Sileman suddenly said, "I remember. That day outside the cave, I heard the pirate leader being called Brother Biao. Could it be this Hu Biao?"
Fang Zhenghao shook his head and said, "There is no information to prove that this was done by Hu Biao, but I already have information to prove that the Extreme Pirate Force wants to deal with Brother Ding. This business was secretly done by Hu Li."
Ding Meng now fully understood Sileman's train of thought. "Commander, are you saying that we should split into two groups?"
Fangzheng Hao said, "Hu Li is a citizen of the Federation. He's definitely in the Federation's territory. With everyone's status, it's impossible for him to enter the Federation. Therefore, I'll be the one running this line. At the very least, we need to know who commissioned him."
Ding Meng asked, "Then, where is this Hu Biao now?"
Fang Zhenghao said, "We received news that he was no longer in Paradise Galaxy's encampment a week ago. Now, Hu Biao is on his way back to Bogor Planet. If he was the one who led the team to ambush us, the timing matches perfectly."
This time, Sleman and Gulaga's hearts sank. If Hu Biao really returned to Cypress Grove, then the Green Arrow would not be able to do anything to him. Now, in the outer space forces, everyone knew that the Extreme Pirate had attacked the Green Arrow's sub-base. Perhaps the Extreme Pirate did not want to cause any more disputes, but if the Green Arrow's people could smoothly enter the Extreme Pirate's territory, then they should not even think about it.
"I'll go!"
Ding Meng's eyes flashed coldly. "Whether this Bogor Planet is a dragon's den, a tiger's den, a sea of fire or a mountain of knives, I have to go. I can't stay here for even a day."
Fangzheng Hao could understand his feelings. He was once young too. Which young man could endure such anger?
In fact, Fangzheng Hao's ideal candidate was also Ding Meng. The series of deaths on Planet KV303 were all caused by Ding Meng. Ding Meng was the main culprit, and many things could only be completely solved by relying on the main culprit.
Moreover, he also knew that in the battle of Meteor City, Ding Meng had killed Ren Zhan, a high-level warrior with a deep foundation. Fangzheng Hao certainly did not believe that Ding Meng was a War Lord, because it was not unusual for a low-level origin ability user to kill a high-level origin ability user. However, this proved one thing, and that was that Ding Meng was strong. At least the Green Arrow Corps could not send an expert of the same strength as Ding Meng.
However, Fangzheng Hao also had his own worries. "Brother Ding, I also hope that you can solve this matter, but now your identity has been exposed. Not to mention other things, the Extreme Pirate Troop is definitely watching you. The possibility of you going is too low."
Xueyan, who was on the side, suddenly said, "Commander Fangzheng, you don't have to worry about this. If Ding Meng can successfully reach Cypress Grove, we can guarantee that it will be difficult for others to discover his true identity."
Fangzheng Hao was a little surprised. "Oh?"
Mengyan smiled and said, "We have this confidence."
Looking at the two of them in high spirits, Ding Meng knew that they were not talking nonsense.
It was not easy for Ren Tianlan to break the topic. He rubbed his palms and said eagerly, "Little Brother Ding, let me accompany you. I haven't exercised my body for many years. This time, it's a good opportunity for me to practice. These bastards make me angry."
Ding Meng thought for a moment and sighed. "Senior Ren, it's better for you to stay on Planet KV303. Your people don't even have a fixed foothold now. This carrier ship will be returned to the raiding corps sooner or later. It just so happens that the Green Arrow Corps is rebuilding their base. If you, a War Lord, stay here, your safety will undoubtedly be more guaranteed."
He had considered it carefully. If Ren Tianlan went with him, once a battle broke out, he would definitely be a powerful existence. The problem was that Ren Tianlan and his group had stayed on the Poison Barrier Star for too many years. Their information and knowledge had been completely out of touch with the outside world. Ren Tianlan had not seen many new things at all. If he encountered armors such as Hercules' Predator again, he would probably be dumbfounded.
A battle was never a simple competition of force. It was more a game of experience, wisdom, strategy, momentum, luck, and many other complicated factors. Therefore, there were classics of the weak defeating the strong and the few fighting against the many.
Xueyan smiled and said, "Ding Meng is right. Old Ren, you'd better learn more before you go out."
"Is that so …" Ren Tianlan retreated resentfully.
As soon as he left, Sileman stepped forward and said, "Brother Ding, I'll go with you. We can take care of each other on the way."
Seeing him clench his fists, Ding Meng could not help but smile. Then, he said earnestly, "Captain, rebuilding the sub-base is the most important thing for the Green Arrow Corps now. And the people here really can't do without you. Little Yu and the other brothers have done their best. You really can't have any more accidents. Now, Aunt Xueyan and Senior Ren will stay here to help you. Isn't it better …"
Of course, Ding Meng could not say that with the strength of a primary warrior, not to mention Cypress Star, even if he went to Meteor City to face the mercenaries of the Celestial Wolf Corps, his own safety would be a problem.
Sileman obviously understood this, but he was still a little unwilling. He gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, if you really encounter those bastards, don't be soft-hearted. Kill as many as you can. Just treat it as killing for me."
Ding Meng laughed involuntarily and patted him on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I won't be soft-hearted."
At this time, Meng Yan straightened her back and stepped forward. She said seriously, "Mr. Ting, Cypress Star is a long way away. This is not something that can be done in a day or two. If people outside want to enter from the official route, they can only enter by taking the spaceship designated by the Celestial Wolf Corps. I'll go with you."
Ding Meng did not object this time. He nodded and said, "Sister Yan is good!"
Meng Yan was undoubtedly a suitable candidate. Her strength was not bad. The key was that she had rich experience and extensive knowledge in space for a long time. She could adapt to changes. The battle in Meteor City showed that Meng Yan's ability to adapt to changes was very strong. Moreover, she had learned a divine skill like the Phantom Fantasy Technique, which could provide a lot of invisible help to him.
Secret manuals were different from cultivation methods, but they were far more powerful than cultivation methods. They could be encountered but not sought. Just like armor for soldiers, they could not only improve their combat power but also had many wonderful uses.
Three days later, Ding Meng officially set off for Le Ji Galaxy.
A transport spaceship designated by the Celestial Wolf Corps was parked in outer space. Although the Celestial Wolf Corps welcomed people from all walks of life, it was not a place where any Tom, Dick, or Harry could enter. One had to buy a pass and board their designated Phantom Poison Ship before they were allowed to enter.
Fang Zhenghao had made ample preparations for Ding Meng. He had gotten his hands on the pass a long time ago. It was said that the pass was priced at 3,000 star coins on the dark net. If one did not have connections, they might not be able to buy it even if they had money.
Secondly, he definitely could not use Green Arrow's spaceship to go to Le Ji Galaxy. The transport spaceship of the Assault Corps was also not suitable to show up. Fang Zhenghao had gotten a tattered Blazing Shark spaceship from somewhere. The spaceship was piloted by Sileman, which was equivalent to personally sending Ding Meng there. In his own words, he had to do something for this matter.
In addition to Meng Yan, Four Eyes and Hairy were also traveling with Ding Meng. The two of them did not ask for this. On the contrary, the two of them were so afraid of death that they were completely forced by Meng Yan.
Meng Yan's explanation was that they had to verify their identities when boarding the spaceship. Four Eyes and Hairy used to be mercenaries of the Celestial Wolf Corps, so their identities were very suitable. The Celestial Wolf Corps would definitely think that everyone had defected from the mercenary corps and wanted to go to Cypress Planet to make a fortune.
After all, Ding Meng of the Green Arrow Corps had just turned Meteor City upside down. It was normal for some mercenaries to be discouraged and not want to work anymore.
In addition to these, Fang Zhenghao also equipped Ding Meng with a new wristwatch model called "Skylight Model VI". This Skylight Wristwatch was a new product of the Holy Grail Federation. It was specially designed for rich citizens who traveled to outer space. It was more powerful than ordinary wristwatches in that it had a very unique ion communication function. It consumed very little energy and could be recharged instantly. The transmission distance of the signal was long enough. If it was in a star field near the Federation, it could directly connect to the Federation's nearest space station.
The only small drawback was that this Skylight Wristwatch was anonymous. If it was worn by a certified citizen, it could use more functions.
Fang Zhenghao had deposited 300,000 Star Coins into the currency system in the wristwatch. Ding Meng had never cared much about money, but this was a small token of appreciation from Fang Zhenghao. The sub-base had suffered a huge disaster because of Ding Meng, but the Green Arrow Corps had also received a lot of assistance because of Ding Meng.
Now that Ding Meng was representing the Green Arrow Corps, the strength of a high-level warrior was worthy of this price.
