The Legendary Mechanic (Transcendental Mechanic)

More than a dozen refugee transport ships are galloping in the star space, panicking, and a World Tree fleet is chasing after them, chasing and intercepting them.

The atmosphere in the cabin of the transport ship was tense, and a large number of refugees were in panic, especially the most damaged carrier ship Baishan. The refugees on board almost had the word "despair" written on their faces.

"The called reinforcements haven't arrived yet... If this continues, we will be overtaken."

The captain of Baishan was sweating profusely, staring closely at the ship inspection report on the virtual screen, and saw that on the three-dimensional virtual model of Baishan carrier ship, each functional module was in red, and the entire spaceship was on the verge of paralysis. A quarter of the eighteen propulsion engine groups were damaged, and the power of the energy core also dropped to 74%.

Since some areas were frequently invaded by World Tree and became dangerous areas, some refugee planets were no longer safe. The Interstellar United Army formed a transportation force to relocate refugees from these areas. This small fleet shouldered this task and transported some refugee.

However, in the middle of the trip, they happened to run into the World Tree Fleet lurking in the territory, and an encounter broke out. The smaller escort fleet was wiped out, most of the transport ships were blown up on the spot, and the remaining remaining fleet panicked. He fled, but was still hunted down by the World Tree fleet.

The Baishan carrier was the most severely damaged among the existing starships. The spacecraft modules failed in a chain, and the speed gradually declined, slowing down the entire fleet.

"At the most, hold on for another ten minutes at most, the engine will be shut down in a chain, and there is a numbered desolate planet ahead, should we make a forced landing?"

The trembling voice of the adjutant sounded, and the captain of the White Mountain clenched his fists, hesitating.

If they make an emergency landing, the people on the entire ship will have no way to escape. They can only let the guards on the ship lead the refugees to hide on the planet to procrastinate for time and wait for reinforcements.

Suggestions from other captains came from the communication channel.

"Baishan, make an emergency landing. Your ships are no longer able to keep up with the speed of the large troops. We can't slow down and wait for you."

"Sooner or later, you will be alone. Instead of being paralyzed in the starry sky, you might as well hide on the planet. At least there is still a glimmer of life."

"Leave the White Mountain, help us buy some time, and save more refugees."

Some people stand from the perspective of rational analysis, and some people make naked demands. What they say is to persuade Baishan to stay.

"I see……"

The captain of Baishan looked helpless and sad.

He understands the mentality of dead friends who are not dead and poor. From the command point of view, it is best for them to be dragged down by acting as abandoned sons, staying behind and procrastinating to buy time for more refugees from other ships.

But having said that, he feels very guilty. In the report, these refugees are just a line of cold numbers, but they are all real people at this time. It may be in line with the calculation of interests to use his own boat of refugees to help more refugees, but in Emotionally, he couldn't bear it. These refugees are not soldiers and have no sense of sacrifice, and it is impossible for him to make this decision after discussing with the refugees, otherwise it will probably cause mutiny. He can only lead the ship silently when others still have hope and trust the captain It made him uncomfortable to watch them leave behind and ruin their hope of escape.

Just when they were struggling, the barren planet jumped into the eyes of the transport fleet, and the eyes of many captains suddenly lit up, and they saw a small armed fleet without a mark docking on the surface of the planet, and the radar only detected the opponent's movement when they got close. exist.

"A fleet is ambushing here? It doesn't look like someone from World Tree."

"Are they our reinforcements? Forget it, no matter who they are, they are all members of the interstellar society."

"Quickly, contact the other party and send out a signal!"

For a while, many captains were overjoyed, thinking that reinforcements had arrived, and urgently sent out a message for help.

On the other side, Pan Ergon and others who were resting on this barren planet were stunned and started discussing.

"This seems to be a fleeing refugee army, followed by the World Tree fleet."

"They are asking us for help, what to do, do you want help?"

"Don't help, the life and death of the interstellar citizens under the rule of the three major civilizations has nothing to do with us, let's go, don't get involved."

Everyone quickly exchanged opinions and quickly reached a consensus.

This group of avengers is not on the side of the three major civilizations. Even if World Tree invades in an all-round way, it has nothing to do with them.

Pan Ergong was silent for a while, and said:

"In this case, then reject all their contact applications and leave here immediately."

The captains of the transport fleet were looking forward to the reply from this strange armed fleet, but all the communication requests came to nothing.

But in the next moment, their expressions changed, and they saw that this strange armed fleet lifted off on its own, ignored the signal for help, and sailed in another direction, obviously keeping away from them and not wanting to support them.

"They are gone, not our reinforcements."

"It seems that we can't count on this army..."

The hopes of many captains were in vain, and they suddenly withered.

Seeing that there was no turning point, the captain of Baishan gritted his teeth, finally made up his mind, and ordered in a deep voice:

"Attention all units, separate the midship carrier compartment, carry all the crew for an orbital forced landing, and set the procedure for turning back to meet the peeled outer hull, and cover the brother troops to leave."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions became serious, knowing that the Baishan chose to sacrifice.

Although they hoped so, when it actually happened, they were not very happy and had mixed feelings.

Soon, the two split up, and the large army continued to flee towards the distance, while the White Mountain slowed down and left the army, turned around and flew towards the barren planet, looking like a solitary streamer separated from a cluster of meteors.

In the outer space, the White Mountain quickly completed its transformation. The heavy armored shell was released from the locked state, and the mechanical components moved one by one, and they no longer occluded. The escape ship, which turned into an iron-gray body, shrunk a lot in size, with almost no weapon components, and made an emergency landing towards the planet.

As for the hull that remained in place, it was like a hollow armored shell, turning its own direction, and the shipboard turret fired violently towards the rear, trying to block the approaching World Tree fleet.

boom!

The escape ship landed heavily on the surface of the planet, creating a circular crater.

All the cabin doors were opened at the same time, and the refugees who were forced to replace the simple life-support devices rushed out of the cabin, looking up at the sky, with despair and panic flashing in their eyes.

I saw that the World Tree fleet had already arrived in outer space, and a round of focused fire destroyed the armor shell they left in outer space, slowly descending, and slowly zooming in on everyone's sight, like a coming shadow.

"Why stop?!"

"Why land here, you have us surrounded!"

The refugees continued to commotion, staring angrily and angrily at the guards around them. Without their knowledge, the captain commanded the spaceship to make an emergency landing, which instantly reduced their chances of escape to zero.

"Everyone listened to the order and scattered with the soldiers on board,"

The captain of the Baishan did not explain, and now is not the time to say more, he could only put on a straight face, hardened his heart and gave orders in a cold voice.

He knew that everyone's hope of survival after the forced landing was close to zero, but he still wanted to make a final effort to take the refugees into hiding.

But at the next moment, seeing the movement of the World Tree battleship clearly, he finally despaired. He saw the guns of the World Tree fleet aiming at the surface of the planet one after another. They were obviously planning to save time and wash the ground directly, which was unreasonable.

"Dead... But letting the World Tree fleet shoot a few rounds of volleys here wasted time, and my mission has been completed..."

The captain of Baishan clenched his fists tightly, his face changed rapidly, he was unwilling, but he also concealed a bit of relief.

But just when the crowd raised their heads and greeted the Star Destroyer Cannon that destroyed them with fearful eyes, a bright light suddenly shot from another direction in the starry sky, piercing through several World Tree battleships at once, blasting out a burst of fireworks .

Everyone looked in astonishment, only to see a meteor covered in strong arrogance approaching rapidly, and the majestic martial arts arrogance spurted out crazily, like heavy machine guns, bombarding the World Tree fleet one after another, and one battleship after another was blown into pieces. debris.

And behind Pan Ergon, it was the armed fleet that had just left. At this time, it shot back and crippled this not too large World Tree fleet in the blink of an eye.

The battle did not last long. Under the watchful eyes of the crew of the White Mountain, Pangon led the Avengers fleet and quickly swept away the enemy ships all over the sky. At this time, only the wreckage and parts of the huge World Tree fleet were floating in the outer space. .

This wave of narrow escapes made many refugees unable to control their emotions, and the crowd burst into ecstatic cheers.

The captain of Baishan woke up like a dream, and hurriedly asked someone to contact the armed fleet to express his gratitude, but the other party still refused to reply coldly after finishing the World Tree army, and had no intention of communicating, as if he was just doing a trivial favor , turned around and left without saying a word, and didn't even bother to clean the battlefield.

"This is obviously not a member of the Interstellar United Army. What kind of army is it..."

The captain of the White Mountain looked at the Avengers fleet in the distance, and muttered to himself in a daze.

At this time, Pan Gong returned to the main ship, and other companions surrounded him with subtle expressions.

"You are really good, you agreed not to get involved in the war, and suddenly let us turn around and kill you back."

"If we are targeted by World Tree because of this battle, it will be troublesome, and it will not be conducive to our accumulation of power."

"Which side are you on?"

The attitudes of the few people are quite a feeling of provoking a teacher.

Pan Ergong didn't take it seriously, and waved his hands blankly, "I've changed my mind. Although we don't take the initiative to participate in the war, if we encounter this kind of thing again in the future, we can save it. The target of our revenge is the three The regime of the great civilization, the ordinary interstellar people have no enmity with us."

"This is exposing our existence." A companion was dissatisfied.

"For Black Star, our existence is not a secret. If we have an adverse effect on the war, he may tell the three major civilizations about our information at any time. After all, he and we have never been the same." Pan Gong After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "Besides, most of the interstellar society has already guessed that World Tree's full-scale invasion is due to the traitor leaking information. Do you think Black Star will suspect us?"

Everyone was taken aback.

"In his view, we have sufficient motivation to do so. What if we don't express goodwill and make Black Star really think that we did it, so even if we don't participate in the war, we can't stay out of it completely." Pangong explained.

Hearing this, several people looked at each other in blank dismay, slightly shaken.

——Obviously you are just a martial artist, but why every time you fool us, we think what you say is so reasonable?

...

Secondary dimension world, somewhere.

A spatial rift opened, and Hailian flew out of it, her figure showing a translucent state.

With the blessing of special talent spells and Ye Yin's clothes, her state at this time is close to "jumping out of the three realms and not in the five elements", and she cannot be observed normally.

"The whereabouts of the pivot snake are mysterious. The mother tree only has a general direction and range, and there is no clear location. What should I do..."

Hailian was a little distressed.

After accepting the mission of the Ancestral Tree King, she has been sneaking and searching all the way for more than half a year, collecting information on the presence of pivot snakes, but she still can't find any chance to assassinate.

Moreover, Black Star seems to have been guarding the Pivot Snake all the time. For her, it is the most dangerous place in the universe. She adheres to the principle of not taking risks if she can, and never dares to get close.

After thinking about it, the only feasible assassination method Hailian can think of is to add the "snake killer" made by the mother tree to some secondary dimensions in the area where pivot snakes often appear, and then wait patiently. If the snake eats one of the secondary dimensions, it will be poisoned.

Although this method has a high degree of randomness, she has no better way for the time being. After all, she cannot control the food source of the pivot snake, so she can only cast a wide net to try her luck.

The only advantage of this method is that it is safer, and she does not have to risk exposure to approach Black Star, giving her a lot of opportunities for trial and error.

Hailian raised her palm, and a black-green liquid substance floated out, which was the "snake killer" given to him by the Ancestral Tree King.

With a flick of her finger, a small drop of black-green liquid separated out and merged into this sub-dimensional land, without any visible changes on the outside.

"Hopefully this method works..."

Hailian muttered to herself, feeling uncertain.
