the Wang family's stability, we deliberately kept the news under wraps.""I understand, I'll figure out a way to arrange it properly."Why don't you go see your grandfather"I will visit you again when...Sean said with a grim face:

"Do you mean this place is also ambushed by pirates"

"I'm not sure, maybe we should try contacting the command center here first"

There are three speculations now, but none of them are good news, so she didn't say much about it.

Sean nodded, trying to send a distress signal and request a video connection, but the SFWL planetary base remained unreachable. After half an hour, everyone's spirits had sunk.

If the SFWL planet doesn't respond, they can't force their way in. They have to retreat to the next satellite star, which will take at least three days, making it a total of six days.

If everything goes smoothly, plus please mobilize support to go to the ZJWL planet, it will also take six days. In this way, it will be twelve days in total, which is the maximum time the outpost can hold out.

"No, we must enter the SFWL planet and investigate no matter what."

Sean frowned and said they couldn't waste any more time, the people at the base were waiting for their report.

"Captain Sean, let me go!"

Ripples volunteered to speak up.

"No, this time letting you come with us was already a big risk. I can't let anything happen to you."

Shawn disagreed, and his teammates agreed. There were at least three thousand soldiers stationed there, not the thirty or fifty rogue pirates they had dealt with before. These were regular troops, their combat strength no less than Shawn's own.

"Because I am underage, they will lower their guard. I need to figure out what is going on at the base before I can determine our next move."

Ripple patiently explained.

If you don't understand the situation and are still detained, what if they kill you

Sean asked directly.

“If things really go wrong here, I’ll do my best to save myself and wait for you to come rescue me. Give me one night. If I don’t get back to you, it means the SFWL planet has a problem. You need to quickly go to the next satellite planet for help—that's your only chance. Otherwise, the ZJWL planet will be lost for good.”

Sean knew that the Horizon wasn't exaggerating, but he still felt stifled. It was frustrating to have a minor at the forefront. They felt like they were falling short.

"Captain Sean, these things are just child's play. You're going to be on the battlefield fighting, and those space pirates are waiting for you to eliminate them. Don't waste your time with this."

Ripple saw through Sean's thoughts and immediately comforted him.

"Maybe I'd be safer staying on the SFWL planet."

Ultimately, Sean had to compromise. He used the escape pods inside the spaceship to send Ripple to the SFWL satellite, and then he hid, waiting quietly.

As the silver escape pod carrying Ripples descended, the garrison on SFWL planet detected it immediately. A squad of soldiers driving mechs left the protective shield and brought the escape pod back to base.

When the mech warriors found her, Ripple's divine consciousness probed out of the escape pod, discovering that those controlling the mechs were indeed regular soldiers. She wasn't sure what the situation was like inside the base, so she pretended to be unconscious and didn't wake up.

As she entered the base through the defense shield, her divine sense transformed into countless fine threads, reaching out to encompass the entire base. The situation within the base was laid bare before her eyes. The entire base had entered a state of combat readiness, but against whom they were preparing to defend remained unknown.

With a metallic *click*, his escape pod was opened from the outside. She quickly regained her composure, then slowly opened her eyes, looking at the guards surrounding her. She sat up and stepped out of the escape pod.

The surrounding soldiers watched the handsome young man before them. He was tall and strong, with short, auburn hair that was cut sharply. His eyes were cold and clear, and after looking around for a moment, he slowly spoke:

"I wish to see your station's Brigadier General. I have urgent intelligence to deliver."

Two soldiers glanced at each other before speaking.

"Who are you, to see our young general You must state your name!"

"It was my oversight. My name is Du Hongtu, and Du Zixian is my uncle."

Now, a look of astonishment flashed across the faces of the two young soldiers. Who didn't know Du Zixian's name He was the commander of the Third Army.

"Just a moment, I'll report this right away."

"Thank you! If your general doesn't believe me, tell him that I was called Wu Lianyi before I changed my name, and Wu Yishan is my biological father."

To be on the safe side, she added another sentence.

What is common knowledge on planet Blue Star may not be so here.

Two small soldiers were a little confused, not knowing whether this young boy was surnamed Du or Wu. However, they still sent a message to their superior officer.

Half an hour later, a military officer personally took Ripples to the base's command center and then had him wait in a small reception room.

Another half hour passed, just as ripples frowned, the door of the small living room opened, and a tall young man with golden hair and blue eyes walked in. He glanced at Ripples before speaking:

"I am Quinn, the station commander. What is your purpose for entering SFWL planet in an escape pod"

"Major Quen, I escaped from ZJWL planet and came here seeking your help. We sent out a distress signal, but you didn't respond. Our video requests were also rejected."

In an emergency, I was sent into the escape pod as the youngest and ended up at their base.

Queen looked doubtful, still with a cold expression, and asked:

"How do you prove your identity"

"My brain can prove my identity."

A Mind Brain is not only a personal terminal, but also an identity proof that exists from birth.

"We are sorry, but our external communication is down, so we cannot verify your identity through the Sentient Network."

Liàn yī listened to this, her brow furrowed in thought, then asked uncertainly:

"Before, you also received a distress message. After rescuing the person, they sabotaged your external communication network and attacked facilities within the base"

How do you know

Queen's face darkened as she asked.

"Because that's the purpose of the pirates, we can't get support in a short time. The entire ZJWL space station was breached, all garrison soldiers will become cannon fodder, my classmates will become hostages in the hands of the pirates, and there's even the president's son inside."

Liàn Yī's face was calm as he spoke.

Quinn's pupils shrank after hearing this. The amount of information contained within was too great. Even though he suspected the young boy's identity, he was considering sending someone to investigate the situation.

"I hope Major Quinn can send mech troops to support. Major Nays is holding on very hard, they can hold out for another twelve days at most. It took us five days to break through and get here."

Quinn pondered for a moment before asking:

"Why not seek help from the nearest QSWL planet and instead choose our outpost"

“Because there was an ambush set up by the pirates, they figured that if we managed to break out, we would definitely seek help from the QSWL planet. With our limited manpower, we could only avoid the traps and come here for help, but we didn't expect them to be so thorough, they had already laid a trap here in advance.”mbing the mountain during the day and practically fell asleep as soon as they lay down on their pillows.Cherry, who was sleeping on a small bed in the ripple house, soon fell asleep as well."Master, I...
