564: Chapter 347: Heart of Sky Base (Five in One)_4 564: Chapter 347: Heart of Sky Base (Five in One)_4 At this time, logistics officer Zhang Xiang, came over with a dozen Iron Heads, respectfully speaking to Su Ming.
“Sir, please leave the handling of this monster’s corpse to us.”
“Hmm!”
Su Ming nodded.
“Take it away!”
Seeing Su Ming’s approval, Zhang Xiang waved his hand to signal his subordinates to start working.
Kaff and others dispersed as well.
Then, Rhein and others walked to Su Ming’s side and whispered.
“Boss, do you feel something’s not right?”
“What’s not right?”
Su Ming asked with a slight movement in his eyes.
“Aren’t we in the wrong position?
Is this the way back home?”
Rhein replied, puzzled.
Ankaga and others also chimed in,
“Yeah, it feels strange.”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
Su Ming coughed and told Rhein and the others.
“It’s not just nonsense, the people below are all discussing it.”
Rhein explained to Su Ming.
“Tell everyone there’s no need to discuss, just focus on preparing for battle.”
Su Ming pondered for a while before instructing Rhein.
“Okay!”
Seeing Su Ming say this, Rhein and the others nodded in agreement.
“Ha, dead tired!
I’m going back to rest first, those on duty stay on duty, those who need to rest go rest.”
Su Ming yawned, sounding tired.
Recently, he didn’t know why, but every time after a battle, he felt extremely tired, almost like he was overexerting.
“Okay!”
Rhein and others immediately agreed.
————————
The next day at noon.
Su Ming slowly opened his eyes, looked at the time on his wristband, and spoke with a helpless tone while touching his forehead.
“I overslept again.”
He immediately got up, washed up, left the Wind Moving, and headed towards the hangar.
Along the way, some soldiers gathered together, whispering.
When they saw Su Ming coming, they stopped talking and saluted,
“Sir!”
Su Ming slightly nodded, continuing towards the hangar.
Soon, Su Ming arrived at the hangar and from afar saw Rhein and others around his Mecha, then he walked over and curiously asked,
“Rhein, what are you guys doing?”
“Boss, you’re here!
Personnel from the honors department are here, they’re painting stars on your Mecha, and we’re just hanging around.”
Rhein explained to Su Ming.
“Oh.”
Su Ming glanced at it but didn’t join the crowd.
That’s when he saw Shu’en, Hejassi, and others standing not far away, clearly discussing something.
Su Ming pondered for a bit, then walked over.
“Su Ming, you’re here.”
Hejassi and the others greeted him when they saw him.
“Hmm, what are you talking about?”
Su Ming slightly nodded.
“Nothing much, just feeling something isn’t right, like we are going deeper into the Dark Forest Starry Sky.”
Shu’en said gravely.
“It’s not a feeling but a fact that we are going deeper into the Dark Forest Starry Sky; otherwise, we wouldn’t be encountering such strong monsters.”
Lieutenant Colonel Aragon said grimly.
“What the hell, are we really returning?”
Hejassi asked, puzzled.
“I’m not sure, it’s almost chaotic below; everyone’s discussing it.”
Chen Ying replied with a headache.
That’s when Timi calmly said,
“I feel this return trip is not that simple, General Vickers definitely has something he’s hiding from us.”
“I think so too.”
Shu’en agreed.
Hearing this, Su Ming said to everyone,
“Everyone, listen to me!”
“Su Ming, go ahead!”
Shu’en and the others quieted down.
“I think your analysis is not wrong, in fact, Kaff and I had noticed something odd earlier.
Although we are not sure whether we are on the return route or on a special mission route, one thing is certain.
Since General Vickers is not telling us the truth, it means it needs to be kept secret.
What we need to do now is not speculate but to calm everyone’s discussions!
I believe when the time is right, General Vickers will tell us the truth.”
Su Ming analyzed calmly.
“I think Su Ming is right, we should control our subordinates now.”
Shu’en agreed.
Just then, everyone’s wristbands suddenly vibrated, popping up a message.
Su Ming and others quickly said,
“Let’s go!”
Inside the Emperor’s War Room.
Su Ming and others sat quietly, waiting for Major General Vickers to arrive.
Each of them had a very solemn expression as they felt increasingly uneasy about receiving a meeting notice at this time.
That’s when Vickers Major General walked in with a steady pace.
“General!”
Su Ming and others stood up to greet him.
“Please, take your seats.”
Vickers Major General raised his hand to signal everyone to sit down, then walked up to the old celestial projection.
Su Ming and others sat down again, gazing intently at Vickers Major General.
Vickers looked at everyone and said gravely,
“I believe you must have heard some discussions from the people below.”
“Yes!”
Kaff and others didn’t deny it.
“I know you’re full of doubts and anxiety, really puzzled as to why we are entering the Dark Forest Starry Sky.”
Vickers Major General spoke to everyone.
“Yes, General, what’s going on?”
Hejassi directly asked.
“I will explain all of this to you, but before that, I must apologize to you all, I’m sorry!”
Vickers Major General apologized to everyone.
“General, you?”
Su Ming and others were also taken aback, looking puzzled at General Vickers.
“There’s no need to be nervous, I apologize because I’ve deceived you and hidden the truth.
In fact, you guessed right, we are not on our way back to the Federation, but are crossing the Dark Forest, heading toward the rear of the Dark Star Empire, carrying out a special military operation; and I didn’t tell you before to prevent information leaks.”
