Chapter 1565 The Return of the Legend
Such a large fleet cannot belong to the Alliance, otherwise there would be a notification, and it can only belong to the Evil Empire.
However, the main force of the Empire was at the entrance of the passage, and no such large fleet had ever entered the Alliance.
Then the only possibility is the fleet led by that mysterious team.
Soon after, the monitor also sent back a signal, which was the mighty Alliance fleet, mixed with several Imperial warships.
This is the standard configuration of Digital Phantom. What happened on the planet Kochi a year ago shocked the entire alliance.
The patrol ship evacuated without thinking, turning on the afterburner to maximum and sounding the highest level of alarm.
It is said that the Digital Phantoms are quite ferocious, and once their Allied warships are seen, there is no way they can escape.
Unexpectedly, the other party didn't bother to pay attention to him and drove straight towards the entrance.
After sailing for half a day, the fleet encountered the alien forest again.
Seeing that there were only seven or eight hundred trees, the advance fleet in front almost rushed forward.
There is no way. We have become accustomed to beating up foreign races over the past six months. Such a small ethnic group cannot withstand a beating at all!
But in the end, the advance fleet held back and asked the rear whether to start a war.
Qu Jianlei first asked Xiaohu whether the other party had discovered the wind forgotten that was caught under their regimental-level ship.
Xiao Hu said it was impossible to discover it because the fleet was too large and the surrounding starships had cleared all the monitors.
"Let's go around," Qu Jianlei gave instructions.
"We are not afraid of fighting, but if we attract the hatred of the alien races and turn to attack the entrance of the empire, it will affect the military's arrangements."
When Hua Xiezi relayed these words, he did not add any exaggeration, but the imperial soldiers always felt a little uncomfortable when they heard them.
Not long ago, we were killing everyone in the occupied areas. It was so exciting and we had some snacks every day.
Now that we're at the doorstep, we're being hesitant.
In fact, the soldiers were all very clear about the empire's strategy - to guard the entrance to the passage and never take the initiative to cause trouble.
This decision cannot be said to be wrong. Fundamentally speaking, it is more in line with the interests of the empire.
But...why do I feel so aggrieved?
With so much anger in their hearts, the fleet arrived near the entrance of the passage.
When the Imperial military discovered the massive fleet approaching, they were severely shocked at first.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief only after they figured out that the leading vanguard ship came from the Empire and that its sequence followed the Digital Phantom.
During the wars over the years, the Empire had also lost warships to the Alliance, but the fleet before them could not be an imposter.
Let's just say Digital Phantom... has it ever failed? And they won't abandon their allies.
The news of Qing Hu's single-handed rescue of friendly forces had spread throughout the entire front command center and won the hearts of the generals.
The military had a headache for a while, thinking that this was bordering on personality cult, but... now they also need to boost morale!
The key is that Digital Phantom has always refused to have in-depth contact with the military. This is certainly unpleasant, but it also shows that they have no intention of military power.
However, even if they thought the fleet was not an imposter, its scale was so large that the patrolling warships dared not let down their guard.
As they asked, they observed carefully and suddenly shouted, "Fuck... Alien trees!"
There was no way. Feng Wangxi's body was too huge. It was much longer than the regimental-level ship that was holding it.
From a distance, it appears to be obscured by the fleet that blocks out the sun, but when you get closer, it's hard not to spot it.
The patrol ship sounded the alarm without saying a word - being on the front line, one can never be too vigilant.
But then they got the first-hand news, and were extremely shocked.
"Took a foreign tree captive...alive?"
"This...maybe not a prisoner," the returning soldier didn't know how to explain.
He knew the details, but he was not qualified to reveal this secret. "We are here anyway, don't worry!"
"We have killed many of these people, so they are not that scary."
The patrol ships didn't dare to believe this - even if they wanted to believe it, military orders had to be strictly enforced.
"Well, you can't explain it clearly. We can't let you get any closer."
"We don't have enough face, but Digital Phantom has enough face, right?" The soldier was furious.
I came here to show off, but I ran into such a disappointing person. "With them watching, what's there to be afraid of?"
"Sorry," the patrol ship didn't give any face at all, this is the front line!
If he were to be negligent, losing his own life would be a minor matter, but if he betrayed his comrades and the entire defensive force, that would be a death sentence.
He apologized, "Brother, you really don't have enough face. Please take the digital phantom."
The next moment, the voice of Zhenshanbao came, "We are back, what procedures do we need?"
If it weren't for the alien tree, the patrol ship would have dared to believe that this was the fleet led by the Digital Phantom.
However, the appearance of Feng Wangxi forced the patrol ship to ask the Digital Phantom warship to approach alone.
The fourth in command knew the seriousness of the situation and had no intention of making things difficult for the soldier, so he drove the division-level ship directly to the front.
Soon, the military's division-level ships came over, "So it really is the Digital Phantom, welcome back the legends!"
In the past welcome ceremonies, the names were either “warriors” or “heroes”, but this time the military’s title was actually “legends”!
But digital phantom really deserves the term.
It is almost legendary that the small fleet responsible for harassing behind enemy lines dared to openly attack the alliance's important military town, Kochi.
Not to mention, not only did everyone escape unscathed, but they also cleared out the alliance’s war reserve.
This battle directly destroyed a lot of the morale of the alliance - while they were still fighting hard at the front, the base camp in the rear had been ransacked.
The Alliance propaganda was that Digital Phantom used Alliance fighters as meat shields.
However, the Empire reported that Digital Phantom took action and rescued more than 40,000 ordinary people of the Alliance from the aliens.
Anyway, it's a propaganda war, and there's nothing wrong with different focuses - everyone will choose to say what's beneficial to them.
However, the only ones who could come into contact between the two sides were the soldiers fighting desperately at the front, and the news could not be hidden from them.
There are even rumors that later the Digital Phantom led a large number of Alliance warships to fight against the alien race.
The Imperial Military did not really think that it was necessary for the Digital Phantom to rescue the people of the Alliance.
To be honest, it feels... a bit off-topic.
But this does not hinder the empire's propaganda, as this is the best propaganda subject.
For the grassroots fighters of the alliance, being used as human shields by the enemy is understandable - we are all soldiers, don't be so pretentious.
It's actually the enemy army rescuing their own civilians. This situation... is really a bit unbelievable.
But we are all adults and have a basic understanding of human nature - the following behavior is really admirable.
The morale of the alliance army has been greatly reduced. Digital Phantom really deserves the title of "legend".
However, the fourth leader still said in a lukewarm tone, "I don't deserve to be called a legend. We have been fighting for more than a year and we are back to rest."
"You're most welcome," said the head of the forward command aboard the military's division-level ship.
His appearance itself represents the attitude of the military.
But he still wanted to ask, "Although you are very tired, I have a duty to fulfill. Is this alien...alive?"
This is not a question of life or death at all. Although I am straightforward, I still have some skills.
The fourth boss was more straightforward than him. "It provided us with a lot of useful intelligence and was willing to surrender."
"Surrender...surrender?" The top leader had never expected such an unexpected event. He subconsciously asked, "Not a prisoner?"
"No," the fourth leader answered frankly, "it hopes to abandon the dark and join the light."
"Abandon darkness and join the light..." The top leader felt that he might not have had a good rest last night. Are you talking about the surrender from aliens?
He was able to become the head of the front-line command center and had seen too many strange things in his life.
But he couldn't even dream of such a thing. This was completely contrary to his cognition, okay?
He calmed himself down before speaking simply and directly, "Are you sure it's credible?"
This is the good thing about dealing with soldiers. Although there are some shady things happening, most of the communication is straightforward.
The fourth boss also spoke in this style, "It is still in the investigation period, but we have the means to control it."
You have the means... That's good! The leader felt relieved after hearing this.
If someone else said this, he might not believe it, but if it was Digital Phantom... he should have this ability.
However, he still said bluntly, "You want to accept it... I am worried that the public will have emotions."
"We thought of it," the fourth master sighed helplessly, "but... it gave too much."
"Give a lot?" The leader's eyes lit up when he heard this. He loved to hear this.
Normally speaking, although the Digital Phantom is quite unique, if there is any gain, some will slip out from between your fingers.
But he still asked cautiously, "Can you guarantee that there won't be any accidents?"
The Fourth Master hesitated for a rare moment before answering, "I can't guarantee it absolutely... but the ban should be effective."
He understood the nature of the soldiers on the front line too well, especially how boring and depressing space was.
Knowing that he has a captive of a foreign race and has nothing to do, he must bully him from time to time and have some fun, right?
He basically understood Feng Wangzi's character. At least on the surface, he seemed to be a man who knew how to deal with things - it was hard to say in more detail.
But this kind of people obviously only respect the strong. If they are provoked by the weak, something might really happen.
He felt the same as the boss. That guy might not be trustworthy, but at least he was worth testing for a while.
So he will not make all his promises and at the same time avoid certain misjudgments from the military.
"Restrictions..." The leader pondered again. He remembered that the restrictions on the locusts were also invented by Digital Phantom.
"Like alien locusts?"
"No," the fourth master replied calmly, "We can restrain it through the rules of heaven and earth. If it dares to cause trouble, we will die if we don't take action."
"It's just that we can't be sure how much chaos it can cause before it dies."
The top leader suddenly stopped talking.
