Chapter 1066: Chapter 792: Eerie 2_6
Wang Ce helplessly asked Su Mo and the others.
“Don’t panic yet, I have a few questions to ask you. Do you know if this Freedom Fortress is a fixed planetary fortress or a movable type?”
Su Mo calmly asked.
Lin Yaotian listened and responded with a sowhat serious expression: “I ca here once before, and it wasn’t fully completed at the ti, but it seed like it was fixed. Moreover, strategic fortresses like this are located at strategic locations, so they can’t just move around casually.”
“But such a large fortress can’t just disappear without a trace. Even if it vanishes, it should leave so signs. Maybe there was a deviation sowhere. Shall we send out personnel to search the surrounding starry skies? We might have unexpected gains.”
Su Mo’s expression changed several tis before he finally spoke.
“Okay!”
Lin Yaotian and the others nodded in agreent after listening. Aside from this thod, they had no better options at the mont.
“But everyone needs to be extra careful. This area in the starry sky is extrely dangerous; going out to reconnoitre might be a life-risking endeavor. You need to be ntally prepared.”
Su Mo solemnly reminded everyone.
“We understand.”
Everyone replied with a solemn expression.
Then Su Mo disconnected the virtual image communication and stood up.
Sun Duoxiang saw Su Mo get up and quickly walked over saying, “Boss, are you planning to go personally to scout? Isn’t it too risky? I can have the subordinates do it.”
“No need, so things I have to see for myself. You all stay here at ease.”
After Su Mo finished explaining, he headed towards the hangar without turning back.
In the starry sky, nurous chas and interstellar fighters separated from the Blue Whale and Shadow.
Everyone exchanged glances and dispersed, flying towards the surrounding starry skies.
…..
Seven days later, Su Mo piloted the Pseudo V Generation Biological cha: Ghostly Deford cha, nervously hiding behind a teorite.
Ahead of him floated a grey Insect Nest the size of a planet, covered with densely packed crater-like holes, surrounded by countless flying insects.
With an Insect Nest of this scale, it’s not surprising for a few V-type insects to appear.
Suppressing his nervousness, Su Mo whispered to the Fake Owner – Swallower, “What’s going on? This isn’t a fortress; it’s an Insect Nest! Such a massive Insect Nest, and you scanned it wrong? How can that be? What’s really happening?”
“I never said there was a fortress here, I just told you there was a suspicious giant object.”
The Fake Owner – Swallower replied in a deep voice.
“No, no, sothing’s off with your state, what’s going on?”
Su Mo clearly sensed a problem. With the prowess of the Fake Owner – Swallower, not even an ant should escape its sight, yet this huge Insect Nest was judged incorrectly?
Unfortunately, despite how Su Mo questioned, the Fake Owner – Swallower had no intention of explaining.
“Forget it, let’s retreat!”
Seeing the Fake Owner – Swallower unwilling to speak, Su Mo didn’t continue to press for answers. Instead, he controlled the Ghostly Deford cha to turn into a streak of light and flee as fast as possible.
“Not continuing to search?”
The Fake Owner – Swallower asked in a deep tone.
“No, I’ve searched everywhere nearby, it’s ti to return and see if anyone else discovered anything.”
Su Mo sighed and replied.
…
Much later, Su Mo returned to the Shadow’s hangar.
Sun Duoxiang imdiately ca forward excitedly: “Boss, you’re finally back.”
“Have the other reconnaissance personnel returned?”
“Those who could return have returned, you were the last to co back.”
Sun Duoxiang hurriedly explained.
“Gather everyone in the eting room, let’s have a eting.”
Su Mo thought for a few seconds and said.
“Alright!”
Sun Duoxiang quickly responded.
After a while, Lin Yaotian, Wang Ce, Qian Chengxue, Zhang Xun, and others all gathered in the eting room.
Everyone’s faces were gloomy, devoid of any smiles.
Seeing this, Su Mo had a vague bad feeling looming in his mind.
He steadied his emotions and asked: “How did the reconnaissance go on your end? Did you find any traces of the Freedom Fortress?”
“No, we’ve thoroughly searched the area. We’ve even lost a lot of personnel in the process.”
Xiao Qijin replied, with brows furrowed tightly.
Zhang Xun also rubbed his forehead and said helplessly: “Sa situation on my side, many sacrifices but the sa lack of results. Mr. Su Mo, how about you?”
“No results either.”
Su Mo replied, his mood growing increasingly heavy.
Wang Ce stood up at this mont, sighed, and addressed everyone: “I have so very bad news.”
Su Mo and the others’ gazes all focused on Wang Ce.
“What news?”
“Wang Kui personally led a team and ventured to inspect the nearest Yanas Kingdom’s logistical supply Space Station – Kern. But Kern Space Station is gone too.”
Wang Ce said with a complex expression.
Upon hearing Wang Ce’s news, everyone’s face beca a bit grim.
The disappearance of the Freedom Fortress was already eerie enough, and now even an ally’s Space Station has disappeared. Coincidence? No one believed it.
At this mont, Lin Yaotian also spoke up, addressing everyone: “Not only did our ally’s Space Station disappear, but I specifically went to the area of Galmotos Empire’s Tusk Fortress to take a look, and that fortress is gone too.”
Listening to Lin Yaotian, everyone present took a deep breath, feeling a chill down their spines.
“This…..”
Su Mo felt uneasy hearing these two pieces of news; just what is happening in this area?
