Such a formation was not only unheard of, but also shocking to the world.
After receiving this intelligence, Huo Yushen, along with the highest-ranking officials from the Military, the Cabinet, the Senate, and His Majesty the Emperor, held an emergency meeting.
In the end, they decided to have him personally take a trip to the East Tianyuan City-State.
Rescuing and receiving Meng Guanghui was secondary; the main thing was to investigate the true situation there.
If Wenren Zhao really had some kind of "adventure," it must be the work of that "god" behind her.
Huo Yushen didn't believe in any gods. He only worried whether those indescribable things related to the Remnant Species had appeared again.
Like that "Tayam"...
Huo Yushen checked the time and said, "I have to go. You handle the handover with Kang Shanxing yourself."
"You can tell him everything related to the Star Pirates."
"If you don't want to say something, then don't. It's not a big deal."
Star Pirates were not a matter that Huo Yushen needed to deal with personally.
No matter how much trouble Xia Chujian caused, he could clean it up for her.
Huo Yushen's avatar disappeared from the virtual display screen.
Before Xia Chujian could recover, she saw Kang Shanxing's avatar appear on the virtual display screen.
"Chujian, Marshal Huo and Meng Guanghui are both busy. I'm in charge now."
Kang Shanxing looked very refined, and he was now wearing a pair of black-rimmed crystal glasses, making him look harmless.
Xia Chujian hadn't had much contact with him, but she knew that he wasn't a straight shooter like Meng Guanghui, so she spoke more cautiously.
"Colonel Kang, hello. Marshal Huo just told me that I will cooperate well with Colonel Kang..."
Before Xia Chujian could finish speaking, she heard the urgent voice of Sun Jiahao, the captain of Team 1, coming from the communicator in her captain's room.
"Captain! Something happened in the Fifth Floor Warplane Warehouse!"
"The three instructors on an Interstellar Airship at the Flying Base are all dead!"
Xia Chujian: "!!!"
They hadn't even arrived yet, and the traitor had already started the Slaughter?! Xia Chujian's expression visibly tightened.
Kang Shanxing's call with Xia Chujian was using the Cruiser's encrypted system, so he could only hear Xia Chujian's voice and not any other sounds from her side.
However, he could see the change in Xia Chujian's face.
He immediately asked, "Something happened on your end?"
Xia Chujian said concisely, "I told Marshal Huo before that there were Star Pirate spies among the people at the base this time, which is why he asked you to handle the handover."
"As a result, I just received news that three instructors on one of the base's ten instructor Airships were just found dead!"
As she spoke, Xia Chujian slammed the table in anger. "These spies are really cunning! They saw they couldn't escape, so they committed suicide out of fear of punishment!"
Kang Shanxing immediately said, "The dead may not necessarily be the spies. It's also possible that someone framed them, trying to deceive everyone."
As he spoke, he looked at the coordinates of Xia Chujian's Starry Sky Cruiser and said, "You're almost at the edge of the Asteroid Belt."
"Once you reach the edge of the Asteroid Belt, stop there and don't come out. I'll leave immediately!"
"Marshal Huo specifically asked me to use his Bat-style Fighter Jet. It's very fast!"
Xia Chujian breathed a sigh of relief and said sullenly, "Colonel Kang, hurry up. I'm not very good at solving cases. Oh, right, we also have an instructor here who has been unconscious for a long time. Can you bring a doctor over?"
Kang Shanxing was amused by her tone and said, "I didn't expect you to solve the case anyway... It's okay, I'll be there soon. Give me twenty minutes. The Bat-style Fighter Jet has everything, and I can bring a field hospital over."
Xia Chujian was surprised. "You have Marshal Huo's Bat-style Fighter Jet, and you still need twenty minutes?!"
She remembered that Huo Yushen's Bat-style Fighter Jet could perform space jumps. Wouldn't that be a matter of minutes?
Kang Shanxing sighed and said, "Space jumps require a stable magnetic field. The magnetic field in the Asteroid Belt is notoriously chaotic. How is a space jump possible?"
"—If you jump twice, you might end up in the Beichen Galaxy."
Xia Chujian: "..."
...
Kang Shanxing still needed twenty minutes to arrive at the scene, but Xia Chujian couldn't cower in the Captain's office waiting for those twenty minutes.
She steeled herself, straightened the military uniform she was wearing over the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha, then put on the fully enclosed helmet and mask, and began to communicate with Seven Lù.
"Seven Lù, do you know what's going on on the fifth floor?"
Seven Lù had previously taken over the control of those warplanes and airships, and she didn't know how things were now.
Seven Lù's childish voice rang in her fully enclosed helmet: "Master, the control was cancelled at that time."
"Seven Lù can't see their monitoring. Only on the public communication channel, I saw someone say that three instructors were found dead in an airship."
Xia Chujian had a headache.
She knew she shouldn't have given back control so early.
Or even if she relinquished control, she should have let Seven Lù secretly control their monitoring equipment?
But after thinking about it carefully, she decided against it...
She didn't want Seven Lù to leave too many traces.
Last time there were no problems, but last time there were only four warplanes.
This time there are one hundred and ninety-one warplanes! And ten Interstellar Airships piloted by instructors...
In case there was some particularly powerful program in there that would allow people to discover Seven Lù's traces, she would suffer a great loss.
Of course, the main thing was that Xia Chujian didn't expect that the Star Pirates' spy would dare to come out and jump around at this time! What should she do at this time? In any case, let's go and see first.
She was the Captain, and of course she should go and see if there was a murder on her Cruiser.
Xia Chujian thought for a while, pulled down the helmet and goggles to use as a neck brace, so that people would not notice that she was still wearing the Shao Siming Mecha inside her military uniform.
Then she went to one of the Confinement Rooms where the pilots were being held and released the four pilots, including Gu Zhongjin.
"Major Gu, we are about to return to our destination."
"But there's a problem on the ship."
"Now, I authorize you to lead the pilot team and be responsible for piloting these four portholes."
"When we reach the edge of the Asteroid Belt, stop at the coordinates I specify."
"Until the problem is clarified, we will not leave the Asteroid Belt, and we will not enter the Starry Sky Terminal of Cangge Star."
Seeing Xia Chujian's serious expression, Gu Zhongjin didn't dare to ask what was going on, and immediately stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, Captain Xia!"
He and the three pilots beside him went to the four portholes respectively.
Without Xia Chujian saying anything, Seven Lù had quietly withdrawn from the porthole control system here.
As usual, it erased all traces. If others investigated, they could only find that the Cruiser's own Mechanical Intelligence was driving automatically.
Gu Zhongjin and the other three looked at the driving records in the system and were convinced of this.
They had been cooperating with the Mechanical Intelligence on this Cruiser for many years, and they could tell the truth from the false at a glance, so they had no doubts.
After Xia Chujian arranged the pilots, she used the communicator in the Captain's office to speak to the entire Cruiser.
Especially the Fifth Floor Warplane Warehouse.
"Attention everyone, this is the Fourth Interstellar Fleet, Falcon D1 Star Cruiser Captain Xia Chujian."
"In view of the sudden murder on the Cruiser, I now announce that everyone should stay in their positions and do not take any action."
"The Mechanical Intelligence on the Cruiser is now monitoring everyone's actions. Anyone who disobeys orders will be arrested immediately."
Xia Chujian deliberately didn't say that the Special Security Bureau would take over, just to let the spy relax his vigilance.
She put on an appearance of wanting to "thoroughly investigate" so that the spy could focus his attention on her.
She felt that the other party dared to mess around on her ship because they looked down on her.
If she didn't investigate, the other party would think it was abnormal.
The other party might just want her to investigate.
Because only when she moved, would the other party have an opportunity to exploit.
Xia Chujian led the three hundred Starry Sky Marines stationed on the third floor to the fifth floor warplane warehouse hall.
Two hundred Starry Sky Marines guarded the entrance here, the elite teams 1 and 3 that went out with her to annihilate the Star Pirates organization "Bodhi Leaf".
Xia Chujian also brought down the three hundred Starry Sky Marines guarding the third floor, so the troops she could mobilize reached five hundred.
There were only one hundred and ninety-one trainees and thirty instructors in the warplane warehouse.
However, there were only twenty-seven instructors now.
Three instructors died on an Interstellar Airship.
Xia Chujian came to the fifth floor with a grim face.
Surrounded by a group of tall Mecha warriors wearing six-meter-high Mechas, although she was only one meter seventy-five in height, her aura was a full six meters.
Comparable to those Mecha warriors.
Arriving at the fifth floor warplane warehouse, she did not enter through the main entrance, but stood directly on a protruding balcony in the middle of the fifth floor in mid-air.
There was also a large screen here, where the senior officers on the ship gave instructions to the Starry Sky Marines.
Standing here, Xia Chujian could see the entire hall at a glance.
At this time, there were one hundred and ninety-one Starry Sky Fighter Jets and ten Interstellar Airships parked in the hall.
The Starry Sky Fighter Jets were the smallest, each capable of seating one person, two at most, no more than that.
And an Interstellar Airship could carry twenty Starry Sky Fighter Jets.
But her Star Cruiser could load all one hundred and ninety-one Starry Sky Fighter Jets and ten Interstellar Airships into her hold, and it only occupied a quarter of the fifth floor.
It can be seen how huge the scale of the entire Star Cruiser was.
Standing here, looking at the dense warplanes in the hall, and the ten even larger Interstellar Airships, Xia Chujian took a deep breath.
Before Kang Shanxing arrived, what could she do to prevent the mastermind behind the scenes from continuing to do evil?
Xia Chujian glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Since such a murder occurred on my Cruiser, then I'm sorry, everyone present is a suspect."
"Now, please once again relinquish control of the warplanes and Airships."
"It's not for fighting, because there are no more munitions in your warplanes and Airships, it's just for monitoring."
"From now on, the Mechanical Intelligence of my Falcon-class Star Cruiser will conduct real-time monitoring of everyone."
"Those who do not relinquish control will be directly treated as murderers. No rebuttals accepted."
After hearing this, Lü Luyu directly exploded: "Xia Chujian! Do you have to be so dictatorial every time?!"
"What do you mean no rebuttals accepted?! What a big airs! Even the Chief Instructor of the Flying Base doesn't have such big airs as you!"
Xia Chujian didn't need to pay attention to Lü Luyu, but Lü Luyu brought up Pei Zijing, so Xia Chujian retorted her.
"Yes, the Chief Instructor doesn't have airs, so he was harmed and is still unconscious."
"You also want me to be harmed and become unconscious? - Lü Luyu, don't have wishful thinking if you're ugly!"
Lü Luyu became even more angry: "Who are you calling ugly?! You're the ugly one! Ugly freak!"
"You think you're great just because you can fight?! Seeing the birthmark on your face makes me want to vomit!"
"Do you scare your enemies to death every time with the birthmark on your face?!"
