Chapter 1539 The Skeleton Squad boards the ship!
"Are you the rescue team sent by the fleet?!"
Shirley looked around at Ozma and the other three, with dissatisfaction evident between her brows.
"How could it be someone from a private armed company? What about the New Unified Army? Can't they send people to rescue?"
Shirley Lu gradually frowned, but seeing Grace and Lin Mingmei watching nearby, she didn't want to blame Ozma and the other three.
After all, they came to rescue them.
However, Shirley was very dissatisfied as to why only people from private armed companies were sent.
Obviously, there were people from the New Integration to carry out the mission, but they actually let civilian pilots carry out the mission.
"Shirley, don't blame them. The reason why they sent SMS to rescue was probably because the fleet was caught in a space disaster, so they had no choice but to choose SMS."
After the previous "test" was completed, He Ming discussed the current situation of the fleet with Ozma and the other four.
As a result, just as He Ming guessed, the fleet did suffer a space disaster caused by some reason and was transferred to this solar system.
Although the damage was not serious, the New Unified Army still needed to be on guard against the surrounding space, and it might not be able to allocate more manpower to come to the rescue for the time being.
Plus...
He Ming did not reveal the deeper reasons.
After all, there is a possibility of hurting other people's self-esteem.
"Ahem. General He. Everyone on the Goblin has boarded the battleship. What's next?"
When Ozma saw He Ming pleading for them, he thought for a moment and asked.
After He Ming revealed his identity, they also learned that the Fairy had been rescued and everyone had been transferred to the King Kong. In addition, they also learned the breaking news that the Galaxy Songstress Lin Mingmei was also on the ship.
Maybe the other members of the Skeleton Squad don't know yet.
But as the captain of the Skeleton Squad, the backbone of SMS, Ozma still knows something about the thoughts of his immediate superior.
During the First Interstellar War, his immediate superior was also a participant in that war, and he also witnessed the entire process of the galactic singer Lin Mingmei ending the war with her singing.
There is no doubt that after that, SMS's big boss Richard Birla was the most loyal fan of the Galaxy Diva Lin Mingmei.
In addition to this fact, there are some rumors about why the big boss formed SMS and set out with the 25th fleet, Frontier Fleet. It is said that the reason why Richard Billa followed the fleet was to find Lin Mingmei, who had lost contact again after many years.
Although, these are just rumors among SMS employees.
But when he saw Lin Mingmei standing in front of him, Ozma suddenly felt that these rumors seemed to have a bit of credibility.
He Ming glanced at Ozma and felt that this man seemed to have a lot on his mind, but he didn't care.
"Well, next, we will head to the fleet and reunite with it. After all, this ship is a space battleship and is not suitable for non-military personnel to stay here for a long time."
He Ming was halfway through his speech when he looked at Luca.
"Luca Angelo. Why don't you contact the fleet and disclose our identities to them?"
"Yes! General!"
Luca responded, standing at attention.
A trace of solemnity flashed across Ozma's eyes.
This legendary general in front of him would take such an attitude to make his presence known. Perhaps he wants to carry out some plans on the fleet?
After thinking about it, Ozma pulled the corner of his mouth and put aside these unnecessary thoughts. No matter what, he was just a mercenary who was paid to do things!
Why do you think so much?
Following He Ming's instructions, Luca Angelo quickly edited the message and sent it back.
However, Luca Angelo did not receive a reply from the fleet, but instead received an order from the fleet.
"General, Captain, the fleet just sent an urgent order. We are required to return to defend immediately! The fleet was attacked by an unknown enemy!! The defense line formed by the new unified army is in danger!"
When Luca Angelo, with a look of surprise on his face, returned with the emergency order he had just received, He Ming, who heard the voice, also stopped leaving the hangar.
"The fleet was attacked? During the time we were away? How is that possible? Didn't the New Unified Army already push the defense line a long distance away?"
He Ming had just helped Ozma and the others get away with it by saying that the New Unified Army needed to guard the defense line and could not take care of the Fairy, so they could only send out the SMS.
Unexpectedly, when they turned around, the fleet issued an urgent order, asking them to return to defend! ?
This reversal left Ozma speechless for a moment.
"Don't think about it. Just return to your machines and wait for the attack! We will let this battleship jump over directly!"
He Ming gave the order decisively.
Without thinking, He Ming could guess who the murderer who attacked the fleet was.
However, they could also take advantage of this opportunity to allow him, Lin Mingmei and the Kongo to appear in front of the fleet as rescuers.
This way of appearance is far more practical than asking Luca Angelo to send a text message back, and it will leave some people speechless and unable to refute.
"Short-distance jump? Got it! Then, General, the Skull Squad is now under your command!"
At Ozma's command, the four members of the Skeleton Squad saluted and acknowledged He Ming's command authority.
"Well then, take your positions! I will attack with you!"
After He Ming returned the gift, he looked at Luca Angelo.
"Luca Angelo, please give the coordinates of the space where the fleet is located to the Kongo! We need a clear coordinate!"
"Yes! General."
In a blink of an eye, a tense atmosphere swept across the entire King Kong.
Before the people on the Fairy in Living Area No. 2 could react to the good news brought by the Skeleton Squad, they heard the news that the fleet was attacked, and for a moment there were many panicked voices.
"The fleet was attacked? Then, is there no way for us to return to the fleet?"
"Weren't those reinforcements sent by the fleet just now? How come the fleet was attacked in the blink of an eye?"
"···"
Seeing this, Lin Mingmei and Grace stepped forward together and tried their best to comfort everyone, asking them to wait without worry and assuring them that the fleet would be fine.
Shirley looked around and followed the two without hesitation, joining in.
Although Shirley was very curious whether He Ming was as brave and invincible as she had heard from those young Earth New Integrated Pilots during the performance, the most important thing for now was for everyone to calm down.
As for other things, let’s talk about it after the fleet crisis is over!
"Attention everyone! The Kongo is about to enter a short-distance jump! After the jump, the ship will start a battle. Please be prepared to resist the impact!"
As King Kong's voice came from the radio, the super-flag-class sea fog battleship King Kong, which had completed preparations for a short-distance jump, disappeared in the dazzling flowers of light in the blink of an eye.
