Under the family righteousness, no hunting group is willing to bear the infamy of deserters. Even the team of Lawley and Vader, they are from the surface, but currently they are still attached to the name of a family in name. If they escape, then it is on the record of this hunting group. It will leave an extremely disgraceful one, and it will be difficult to be hired by other families later.

So for Vader and his hired hunting group, unless the battle is fierce and the situation has reached the point of poverty, they will not choose to retreat unless they plan to disband the hunting group in the future.

Reyner choked all the team leaders in the room to death with a single sentence, trying to refute, but couldn't find a reason. His sentence to cross out all the heavy firepower areas did make the remaining defense zones have the same pressure, and there was no uneven distribution. So whether you can guard the defense zone you are responsible for depends on your own ability. For all hunting groups, it can be considered a compromise.

Ned checked his words and expressions and hurriedly stood up and said, "Mr. Reiner’s proposal is excellent. I didn’t think about it well before. I must apologize to you for this. So let’s do it, I will make the new defense zone map as soon as possible. Send it to your tactical brains. At that time, you only need to register the defense area you are responsible for with the adjutant. All defense tasks are unified into the fourth level of military merit in accordance with the regulations of the military department. After the battle, you can directly redeem it here. , Here, I wish you all the best of luck."

The meeting ended here, and the heads of the hunting regiments retired one after another, and... left. Reina was the last to come, and was the last to go. When he and Ned were left in the war room, he said solemnly: "Lieutenant Colonel, don't you think it's weird?"

"Why is it weird?" Ned asked casually as he was packing up his things.

Reina saw the map on the plasma panel: "No enemy scouts were found near the base beforehand. How did they locate the coordinates of our base? How long have we been operating on Rin Shuang, ten years? Twenty years? In general, we should have a geographical advantage. But now you see, other bases have been attacked by the enemy. How did they quickly locate our bases on a completely unfamiliar planet? "

Ned was picking up a tactical board, and when he heard this sentence, his action was stagnant, and he could hardly grasp the tactical board. He raised his head impressively: "You mean, someone leaked the coordinates of the base?"

"We have already had such a guess before, and you may not know it. Before the arrival of Rin Shuang, when the hunting group fleet was assembled and arranged, there was already an attack. Then when we entered Rin Shuang, we Received a second attack. The two attacks before and after were completely without warning. Didn't the Federal Intelligence Department even have a trace of the enemy's dynamics? In other words, someone should cooperate from the inside and outside, so that the enemy's two actions were not triggered. The federal intelligence network?"

Ned's forehead is already covered with sweat: "If this is the case, that would be terrible. But who would dare to do this, Mr. Reina, do you think this should be reported to the General Staff Headquarters?"

Reina shook his head: "Unless the staff headquarters are filled with wine sacs and rice barrels, they should be aware of clues. Moreover, this matter is very important, and it is definitely not an ordinary person who can do this. Starship assembly Which one is not a military secret of the time and place of the planet, the time of entering the planet, and the coordinates of the various bases? Being able to know such important information well, needless to say, it must be a big figure in the Federation. No matter which big figure it is, it is not. You and I can afford to provoke, so I think it's better to keep silent about this matter."

Ned breathed a sigh of relief when Renner said this. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat stains on his forehead: "That's right, it's not easy for a small person like me to sit in this position until now. If you want to intervene in this kind of thing, I'm afraid I can't do it. "

Reina nodded, said nothing, and left. The sky outside was deep, like a chaotic, completely uncertain prospect. Reina hated this feeling. He would rather have a real sword and a gun on the battlefield, rather than always guarding against the feeling of stabbing a dagger from behind. If the hand that covers the sky is not removed, whether it is the Federation, or the powerful who participated in the free hunting, or even the family's army, will hide in an extremely disadvantaged situation.

The man is a more terrifying enemy than the alien coalition forces. He hides in the dark, playing with the army and the strong like a marionette. Reina guessed that he could even use the enemy's hands to cut off targets that were enemies. For example, a certain family?

He shuddered at his thought.

This is another level of battle, and obviously, he can't participate in that level of war yet. Not only him, but the vast majority of people are ignorant, and more people can't even see such a profound and far-reaching side. The interstellar battlefield has become a mysterious sea, and most people are just a duckweed on the sea. Not to mention seeing through the undercurrents under the sea, not even controlling one's own destiny.

Under the general trend, personal power appears so small. Although Reina didn't want to admit it, he knew that there would always be only so few people who could influence the situation. The hateful thing is that he is not one of those people. So he could see some undercurrents under the sea, but he still couldn't change anything. He is like a fish in the ocean, seeing the world more and deeper than duckweed, but he is equally powerless to change anything.

The cold wind swept the snow powder desperately trying to get into Alan's nostrils. He took a deep breath of the cold air on the surface, and instead of freezing on his chest, a flame of joy rose up instead. After seven days and nights of travel, he finally saw the sky again. Now he and Catherine were standing on a high **** covered by snow and ice, and there was a silvery white world covered by snow and ice.

The undulating hills stretched towards the end of the horizon, and irregular patches of woods were scattered on this silver land like bluish-gray patches. Snow flutters between the sky and the earth, as if the snow on the Frost Star never stops for a moment, but it can go down to the end of the planet. At this moment, it was sunset, the sky in the distance was stained with a dark yellow, and the roar of wild beasts came from the woods in the distance. This is a vibrant world.

"This is not the Wintergreen Forest." Catherine frowned slightly. Whether it is the terrain or the environment, there is a big discrepancy between this place and the Wintergreen Forest, and I don't know where it is on the Frost Star.

They are underground, so naturally they can't tell their directions. The previous strong earthquake triggered by the Mother of the Earth changed the pattern of the cave maze. It's impossible to go back the same way, Allen and the two can only find another way out. After spending nearly a week, they don't know how far they have gone underground. I only remember passing through the nests where the three lurking monsters live, and there were several violent conflicts with the underground creatures. There were countless lurking monsters and other creatures that died in their hands, and the two almost smashed from the ground to the ground.

Don't talk about Catherine at this moment, even Alan is full of murderous aura.

"Wherever it is, we finally figured it out. If I can, I don't want to go underground anymore." Allen said casually.

Catherine snorted coldly: "Don't forget what you promised me. If you dare to break your promise, I will make you look good."

"I will keep my promise, don't worry." Allen shrugged and said: "So, what are your plans?"

"Of course it was back to the sunrise. I have been out for so long, General Roussen should be furious. In fact, I haven't seen him now, which is quite unexpected." Catherine scanned the landscape below the **** and said:" Only after sunrise, I can tell the direction, and then return to the starship to meet my people."

"You don't have a communicator or something?"

Catherine shook her head and smiled: "I was trampled on by myself."

Allen showed a "that's what it should be" expression. He rubbed his hands and said: "It seems we have to stay here for one night, and then tomorrow, we will part ways."

He is going back to Kaiyan Base, the route is probably a little different from Catherine. Catherine returned to the cave where they had drilled before: "You go find some branches or something, we have to make a fire, unless you want to spend the night coldly."

"Yes, my general." Allen jumped off the hillside and dived into a grove underneath it. Before long, he not only brought back enough firewood to be used as fuel, but also shot a wolf-like beast. This was their dinner.

The fire is shining in the small cave, and a bonfire is burning at the entrance of the cave, illuminating the surrounding hillsides. On this gloomy night, the puppet illuminated by the bonfire is like a small, independent world.

Only belongs to the small world of Alan and Catherine.

The barbecue made a light crackling on the fire. It was the sound of the fat in the meat dripping into the fire. Allen wrapped a few pieces of roasted animal meat in a leaf and placed it in front of Catherine: "Eat it, but be careful to burn it."

Catherine picked up the smallest piece of it and pushed the others to Ellen: "You eat some too, I'll just eat this piece."

Ellen watched as she tore the barbecue into strips and threw it into her mouth to chew. She ate very quietly, as if enjoying every scent of barbecue. The quiet Catherine is like a girl next door. Allen looked at her and said: "With your potential, you should be able to advance to the rank of dominator in a few years. At that time, life will usher in a huge transformation. The most important thing is It is the extension of the natural life span. At that time, it was not a problem for you to live one or two hundred years. So I can’t figure out why you are so obsessed with the pursuit of a long life, especially at your age. It seems..."

"It doesn't make sense, is it?" Catherine looked at him, her deep eyes illuminated by the fire light: "Yes. I have great potential, I am in a high position, and my life has just begun. I should be like your teacher, the wolf marshal. Just squander the time as much as you want. But I am not Windsor Bello, and you will not know what I have experienced. In short, I have my reasons."
