That voice hesitated and asked, "...Are you... Xia Chujian?"
It sounded somewhat familiar.
Xia Chujian frowned, unwilling to admit it. "Who is Xia Chujian? Who are you?"
She spoke using an electronically synthesized voice, so of course she wouldn't admit who she was.
This was their base's public communication channel.
As long as they were close enough, their helmets could use this channel to talk.
At this moment, the other party said with a wry smile, "I am Hui Zhifeng, and I know you are Xia Chujian."
"Only Xia Chujian can use this method to solve my sniper rifle's targeting lock."
Xia Chujian immediately became tense.
It was actually Hui Zhifeng?! Could it be that Chu Qingchen and his group of five were hiding here?!
This was the North Pole, and it had a very advanced Global Laser Defense and Guidance System!
Xia Chujian was silent for a moment, then said, "Come out, and I'll believe you."
Her mechanical arm was still raised, and the Judicator No. 7 Sniper Rifle, the fully automatic Submachine Gun, and even the Punishment 0937 Electromagnetic Cannon on her back, were all aimed at the Flying Vehicle.
If the other party dared to make any unusual movements, she wouldn't be polite and would directly destroy it with the Electromagnetic Cannon.
Hui Zhifeng didn't hesitate, immediately opened the hatch, jumped out in his Mecha, and flew in front of Xia Chujian.
He said, "I'm sorry about just now, I thought you were a Haidagong, so I fired..."
He glanced at the cloak on Xia Chujian, and said, "This is a Haidagong cloak, and it's the kind worn by high-level Haidagong."
"Where did you pick it up?"
Xia Chujian didn't answer Hui Zhifeng's question at all, but instead asked, "You actually know about the Haidagong? What else do you know?"
As she spoke, she flew towards the coordinates Seven Lù had given her.
Of course, she had already locked onto Hui Zhifeng. If he dared to fire again, she would directly blow his head off.
Hui Zhifeng followed behind her, holding both hands high, indicating that he had no intention of attacking.
He said, "I know a lot, but now is not the time to talk. I came here to destroy the Laser Defense and Guidance Equipment here."
"The Haidagong's Floating Turrets rely heavily on the guidance of this equipment. If we don't destroy them, we won't be able to leave here."
Xia Chujian was even more surprised. "Hui Zhifeng, don't play tricks on me!"
"Since you know about this thing, then you go destroy it, and I'll watch you here!"
Hui Zhifeng continued to smile wryly. "I know that equipment is here, but I've been looking for it for several hours and still haven't found it..."
Xia Chujian: "..."
Was this guy trying to trick her? But now time was of the essence, even if he was tricking her, she couldn't care less.
As she flew quickly, she asked, "What about your companions?"
"I heard that your First Interstellar Fleet was completely wiped out. Are you the only one who survived?"
Hui Zhifeng's face darkened, and he pursed his lips before saying, "...Of course, I'm not the only one who survived... We are sorry for those Marine Corps."
"But I'm different from Chu Qingchen and the others. I don't have such a bad conscience."
Xia Chujian didn't comment.
She just wanted to find some topics to distract Hui Zhifeng and prevent him from causing trouble.
Three minutes later, Xia Chujian accurately arrived at the coordinates Seven Lù had given her.
It was within the ice and snow circle of the North Pole.
This place was different from the South Pole. There were no geothermal hot springs, nor were there any Marine Plant Forests.
Just as she rounded the ice peak, she was met by a blizzard.
She and Hui Zhifeng were both wearing mecha.
The current mecha are capable of withstanding nuclear radiation.
Its most basic function is to achieve a stable internal circulation.
Inside the mecha, not only is the temperature constant, but it can also produce oxygen.
So it's a world of its own.
Neither of them felt cold, but the heavy wind and snow affected their vision.
Xia Chujian activated the far-infrared vision system and continued to fly forward, quickly spotting a radar device in the snow below.
It was exactly the same as the one she saw on the small island in the South Pole.
Xia Chujian immediately confirmed that this was the laser equipment disguised as a radar device.
Everywhere here was a vast expanse of white, without any Marine Plant Forest, and the seawater was frozen into ice.
There was no accumulation on the water surface, everything seemed as before.
There had been no changes of the sea over the years, no surge in nuclear radiation, no major changes that killed all humans...
Xia Chujian sighed, and at the same time, an electromagnetic cannon shot out from her Punishment 0937 Electromagnetic Cannon system, accurately hitting the disguised radar system.
Boom! The ten-thousand-year-old ice was blasted with a hole by this electromagnetic cannon.
But the white "radar system" was completely unscathed.
Xia Chujian didn't believe it and fired another electromagnetic cannon.
The thing still didn't move, without any damage.
The corner of Xia Chujian's mouth twitched, feeling anxious, wondering what to do. Was the defense capability of this thing so strong?
At this time, Hui Zhifeng came to her side and said, "My Flying Vehicle has a Super Miniature Ion Beam Cannon, which can destroy this Laser Defense and Guidance Equipment."
Ion Beam Cannon was indeed much more high-end than her electromagnetic cannon, not even in the same league, there was no need to compare.
Of course, although the Super Miniature Ion Beam Cannon was powerful, its power was still not as good as a normal Space Ion Beam Cannon.
But for ground installations, the Super Miniature Ion Beam Cannon was already a dimensional strike.
Xia Chujian looked up at him, narrowed her eyes, and said, "Let me go to your Flying Vehicle, then I'll believe you."
Hui Zhifeng nodded without hesitation: "This is the remote control, you can open the hatch."
He was so straightforward that Xia Chujian was uncertain again.
Was this a trap?
Hui Zhifeng looked at her quietly and said, "Every second you delay here, the losses will increase elsewhere."
Xia Chujian immediately took the remote control and jumped onto the self-driving Flying Vehicle.
Using the remote control to open the hatch, Xia Chujian got in.
The Beichen Empire's Combat Aircraft were all standardized equipment.
Within the same level, everyone was the same.
Xia Chujian quickly found the control button for the Super Miniature Ion Beam Cannon and entered the coordinates.
Then she aimed at the radar system below and fired!
A blue-purple Energy Beam shot down from the Flying Vehicle, hitting the radar system directly.
With a loud bang! This Laser Defense and Guidance Equipment disguised as radar was finally torn apart and destroyed by Xia Chujian.
Sure enough, the Ion Beam Cannon was the king of war...
Xia Chujian sighed in her heart.
Hui Zhifeng still stood in mid-air, standing not too far, not too close, watching all this, without any intention of dodging.
Of course, he stood high enough that the shock wave from the Energy Beam explosion below did not affect where he was standing.
Xia Chujian drove Hui Zhifeng's Flying Vehicle to his side and said, "Get in, if you want to prove that you are different from Chu Qingchen and those people, then fight with us!"
Hui Zhifeng frowned, "We can't beat them, let's evacuate quickly..."
"This Global Laser Defense and Guidance System has been destroyed by you, and the laser beam in the atmosphere can't cover the entire planet."
Xia Chujian said, "We've fought several battles already. Even if we want to retreat, we have to beat them until they can't even raise their heads!"
Hui Zhifeng shook his head, "Listen to my advice, leave quickly, it will be too late..."
Xia Chujian thought for a moment, looked at him deeply, "I'll trust you this once, let's go together?"
Hui Zhifeng said with some pain, "I don't want to leave for now, you guys go."
"I sent a piece of my testimony to your Smart Bracelet account. You can use this to nail Chu Qingchen and the others."
Xia Chujian was a little annoyed at this time, and said, "What's the use of sending a video?! Are you a man? What's with all the whining?!"
"Isn't it better to be alive as a witness?! What exactly happened? What do you know, tell me quickly!"
As she spoke, she started the Flying Vehicle.
Seven Lù quietly connected to the Mechanical Intelligence of this Flying Vehicle and began to assist in the flight.
When Hui Zhifeng saw that his Flying Vehicle, which could only reach a speed of 200 miles per minute at most, was being flown by Xia Chujian at a speed of 500 miles per minute, he was completely stunned.
After a long while, he whispered, "Xia Chujian, I rarely admire anyone. You are the only exception."
Xia Chujian was not polite, "Thanks, but no thanks. Whatever it is you admire about me, I can change it immediately."
Hui Zhifeng closed his eyes and said, "...Jiang Yongbai wanted to kill you when he went to the Asteroid Belt."
Xia Chujian: "..."
She raised her eyebrows and deliberately said, "Hui Zhifeng, don't try to smear Jiang Yongbai just because he's missing..."
"Although I don't get along with Jiang Yongbai, it's not to the point of a life-and-death struggle, right?"
Hui Zhifeng smiled, "Believe it or not, that's the truth."
"Actually, not only Jiang Yongbai, but we all brought Super Miniature Ion Beam Cannons at that time. We agreed that whoever encountered you would not let you go..."
Xia Chujian already knew this, of course, Hui Zhifeng didn't know that Xia Chujian already knew, and he didn't know why she didn't expose it if she knew.
Therefore, Xia Chujian just smiled slightly and said, "What did I do to offend you Nobles? Why do you have to put me to death?"
Hui Zhifeng lowered his eyes and said lightly, "...You are a commoner, and it's none of the commoner's business when Nobles want to kill a commoner."
These words sounded extremely cruel, but they were the cruel reality.
Xia Chujian didn't speak for a long time, but she somewhat believed Hui Zhifeng's attitude.
She glanced at him and said, "Because of what you said, I'll give you another chance."
"But if you still want to kill me, don't blame me for fighting back. - You know, it's not like I can't do it."
Hui Zhifeng said, "If I still wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have told you this."
Xia Chujian was curious, "Why did you suddenly have a change of heart?"
There was some pain on Hui Zhifeng's face, and he said, "Whether you believe it or not, I always felt that this was not good... Until this time, I couldn't bear it anymore."
"Let's not talk about the Asteroid Belt incident. Everyone wanted to kill you, so I just followed the crowd."
"But this time, the information that Chu Qingchen knew was different from what the rest of us knew."
At this time, Xia Chujian's face darkened and said, "Only him? Aren't you five in a gang?"
Hui Zhifeng thought of his family telling him to follow Chu Qingchen before he set off, and shifted his gaze uncomfortably, saying, "It's not wrong to say that."
"But it's different to make a mistake knowing the truth and to be an unwitting accomplice without knowing the truth."
Xia Chujian said, "So you were an unwitting accomplice without knowing the truth?"
She did see something.
When she directly connected with the Starry Sky Marine of the First Interstellar Fleet and asked them to practice Mecha, Hui Zhifeng's attitude was indeed different from the other four.
Hui Zhifeng said calmly, "When I came here and found that the nuclear radiation here was extremely high, I was very surprised."
"But Chu Qingchen wasn't surprised at all."
"Later, when we were attacked by the Shang People and discovered they could use modern weapons, I was even more surprised. But Chu Qingchen wasn't surprised at all."
"I knew it, he knew more than we did. He should be very clear about the real purpose of our operation this time."
Come on, my dear friends, quickly cast your Moon Tickets! There will be three updates today! The Second Update is at 7:00 AM, and the Third Update is at 1:00 PM!
PS: The title of the previous chapter should have been "One Man's Heroism," but the annoying double pinyin auto-correct changed it to "Master." I didn't notice it at the time. (This is also a limitation of Mechanical Intelligence, presumptuously changing my text. [○｀Д○]). I can't change the title; I have to wait for the editor to come back to work and have them change it.
