Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 289
Regarding Jackson's actions, Yang Yi didn't say much.

Although he was skeptical at first, after understanding Jackson's intentions, Yang Yi knew that this was an effective method.

However, Lin Feng didn't see it that way.

"Jackson, don't you think this is too hasty?"

Lin Feng was a little angry. Seeing that she was about to get angry, Yang Yi quickly gave her a look to tell her not to talk nonsense, after all, this is not a place to talk.

Jackson didn't bother, they had just left Ventola's residence.

Not long after, the three came to a secluded place.

"Jackson?"

"I did that on purpose."

"you……"

"Actually, I didn't realize until I saw him."

Lin Feng was taken aback for a moment, realizing that Jackson hadn't talked nonsense before, and deliberately leaked his identity to take advantage of Ventola, and that was the only way he could do it.

"Like you, I don't trust him." Jackson sighed and said, "More than 100 years ago, this space fortress didn't exist at all. Obviously, in the past 100 years, a lot of things have happened here, otherwise those pirates Not going to leave the planet and build this fortress. From what I know of Ventola, no matter what happens, if he feels threatened, he will run away."

"You mean..."

"Obviously, if there are not enough benefits, he won't stay here." Jackson forced a smile and said, "For him, the biggest benefit is the guarantee of safety. In fact, an intelligence broker like him values ​​the individual most Safety. No matter where he is, the first consideration is safety. In this ghost place, the only ones who can guarantee his safety are obviously the pirates who run the place."

Lin Feng nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Jackson meant.

"In other words, he is serving those pirates." Jackson shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Before, this was just my guess. After seeing him, especially after seeing where he lives, I knew I guessed right. He can continue to do this business, and live so comfortably, he must be protected by some people. In exchange, he has to serve these people unconditionally."

"So, you deliberately revealed your identity."

Jackson nodded, and said: "If he has the heart to investigate, he will soon know that I have defected to the federal army and is serving the army, and the warrior army I established has been disbanded long ago. More importantly, if the people here The pirates and the Hidden Elders secretly deal with each other, so they can find out that I followed you here. Obviously, if I lie to him that I am still an interstellar mercenary, it will only cause more trouble."

"The issue is……"

"Brother means that he is using Ventola to spread the news." Yang Yi sighed secretly, and said, "If my guess is correct and the pirates here are secretly dealing with the Hidden Spirits, then in Ventola After reporting the news, someone will come to trouble us."

"Isn't that exactly what we're trying to avoid happening?"

"It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a disaster that can't be avoided." Yang Yi shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "The point is, Ventola only knows that my brother is a federal soldier, and he doesn't know that he is with us. That is to say, even if The news leaked, the enemy who was dealing with us secretly only knew that the federal authorities sent people to protect us secretly, and came here, and knew that the 'Shadow' had an accident on the way to the Hidden Planet."

"This……"

"If this is the case, that enemy will not deal with us blatantly, but will only monitor us in secret. If it is really the Hidden Spirit Race, he will take immediate action. Even if he doesn't fight hard, he will dispatch warships. At that time, The situation will be completely out of control." Yang Yi paused for a moment, and then said, "If the situation becomes unfavorable to the Hidden Spirits, we can also be killed by destroying this base."

Lin Feng frowned, thinking seriously.

"Of course, the way to prove this is also very simple."

"That's right, just stare at Ventola and you'll know what's going on."

When Jackson said this, Lin Feng understood.

In fact, Jackson deliberately told Ventola that he was serving the federal military. He tried to test Ventola, but also wanted Ventola to find the master behind the scenes.Obviously, if Ventola left the residence, just follow him, knowing who he went to, you would know who to deal with next.

That's why Jackson didn't take Yang Yi and Lin Feng far.

Not long after, the three of them returned to the vicinity of Ventola's residence.

The timing was perfect and Ventola was just out the door.

The three of them did not approach, but kept a sufficient distance from Ventola.According to Jackson, Ventola possessed the strength of a tenth-level soldier more than 100 years ago.When he saw Ventola, Yang Yi could tell at a glance that although his strength hadn't improved substantially, it was definitely not bad.However, for the three of them, it was obviously not difficult to keep an eye on Ventola without being noticed by him.

In fact, after seeing Ventola and mastering the original energy fluctuations in Ventola, Yang Yi could perceive his existence from a long distance away.

Following Ventola, the three came to the inside of the fortress.

However, the three of them did not follow.

Quite simply, Ventola entered a guarded area, and at the entrance of the area stood a "No Entry for Idlers" sign.

Here is the control center of the fortress.

"He's inside and hasn't left." Yang Yi glanced at Jackson and said, "There are several people near him, and they are not weak. , similar to Lin Feng, should be the leader here."

Jackson frowned, and said: "This place is heavily guarded, if you try to break into it, you will definitely scare the enemy."

"Let's go, there's no need to stay here." Yang Yi sighed and said, "At least, we already know that Ventola has taken refuge with the pirates here. His rush to meet the boss is enough to prove that these guys have received The news may also be looking for us."

"If that's the case, we'd better get out of here." Lin Feng said.

Jackson sighed, then nodded slightly, expressing his support for Lin Feng's decision.

Both Jackson and Lin Feng thought that they should leave the fort, not because they were afraid of the pirates here, but because they didn't want to get into trouble at this time.The point is, all they are doing now is to convince the enemy who is dealing with them secretly that they are finished.Even if the pirates here don't know Yang Yi, and don't know that Jackson is Yang Yi's subordinate, as long as there is trouble, they can't be sure that nothing will go wrong.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Yi also nodded slightly.

Yang Yi is not afraid of things, but knows that there is no need to take risks.To put it bluntly, as long as the news spread that they were still alive, it would be tantamount to anger.

The three of them set off to return to the spaceport without further delay.

It's just that they were still a beat slow.

In the space port, the pier where the "Shadow" docked has been blocked, and several small spaceships that were previously docked here have also been transferred to other places.On the pier, a group of heavily armed pirates surrounded the "Shadow", but they didn't mess around, because Shen Chengwen and other officers and soldiers were ready for battle.

The two sides are facing off, but no one fired the first shot.

Fortunately, Justin and others stood guard outside the port and stopped Yang Yi and the others in time.

According to Justin, they also just returned, and after discovering that the "Shadow" was surrounded by pirates, they stayed outside the pier and did not return to the "Shadow".Before Yang Yi and the others came back, Justin had already contacted Shen Chengwen.Shen Chengwen asked them to stay outside and continue to try to get the spaceship.As for the pirates surrounding the "Shadow", Shen Chengwen will find a way to deal with it, and Yang Yi and the others don't need to worry about it.

It's just that Justin has no idea what to do next.

Thinking that with Shen Chengwen around, it is impossible for the pirates to occupy the "Shadow", Yang Yi did not delay, let Jackson lead the way, and left the space port.

Fortunately, there are pirates everywhere, so it's not difficult to sneak away.

The question is, where?

Although the space fortress is huge, Yang Yi and the others don't know much about it.What's more, the standoff on the pier cannot last forever.It won't be long before the pirates will find that it is not a pirate ship docked at the pier, but the missing "Shadow".

You must come up with a solution as soon as possible, or you will have to fight your way out.

Even if his whereabouts would be exposed because of this, it would be much better than staying here and waiting to die.

You must know that if the enemy who created the original energy black hole knows that they are here, even if the pirates here are forces cultivated by him, in order to prevent Yang Yi and the others from escaping again, they will use the most extreme means, that is, use destructive force , Directly destroy this space fortress, or even destroy the entire star system.If the star system collapsed into a black hole, even if the "Shadow" could travel at one-fifth the speed of light, it would be doomed.You know, even objects moving at the speed of light cannot escape from a black hole.Theoretically, when a black hole is formed, it is possible to escape only when it reaches the speed of light. To be precise, it is to leave the no-escape zone of the black hole.

Go now, or give it a shot?
Yang Yi was a little hesitant, because if he escaped now, even if he was safe, he would miss an opportunity, and no one could say for sure whether there would be similar opportunities in the future.

Of course, the most urgent task is not to consider the issue of leaving or staying, but to find a place to hide.

Even if you have to leave, you have to think about countermeasures.

Fortunately, Justin knew where to go.

When Yang Yi and the others went to the exchange, Justin found a hotel and wrote several rooms.According to Jackson's previous arrangement, they will stay here for a while, so they need a place to stay, so Justin is in charge of this matter.

The hotel is small and out of the way, and the environment inside is terrible.Those who live here are not so rich pirates from other places, and some small traders.It can be said that they are all of the same rank and low, but it is safe enough, at least no one will stare at this dilapidated small hotel.
