Chapter 2078: Helicopter Ticket

"Of course I understand that saving lives is the most important thing."

Li Yi shrugged helplessly.

"It's just that the other party's reaction is a little too slow. We have been standing here for at least five minutes, but there is no movement at all. Could it be that this beautiful country has become so corrupt?"

There was a hint of dissatisfaction and doubt in his words. According to common sense, they had so openly and ostentatiously entered the territory of Planet No. 7, it was impossible for the other party to be unaware. Even if they could not send patrol ships or starships to resist in time, at least someone should call to inquire about the situation.

However, the reality was disappointing. Five minutes had passed since they arrived here, but Star No. 7 seemed to be completely unaware of their existence and did not react at all. This made Li Yi begin to doubt Star No. 7's management and response capabilities.

However, what Li Yi didn't know was that the interior of Planet No. 7 was already in chaos.

...........

"What!? The energy storage center was bombed?" The man's voice was deafening, as if the entire command center could hear his roar. His brows were tightly furrowed, his face full of disbelief.

"This isn't funny! Stolen!? How is that possible!"

"There are only seven starships that can take off? Or have they just returned from their missions outside?"

There was a hint of despair in his voice, and the already tense atmosphere became even more solemn.

"No matter what happens, I order you to take off and fight immediately! Immediately!"

In the command center of the No. 7 Starship, a man in a white uniform with a general star on his shoulder looked angry and frightened, making people worry for him.

At this moment, the enemy had already reached the gate of the high ground like a tide, and the situation was extremely critical. However, the news the man received shocked him greatly - let alone the artillery vehicles, there were only seven soldiers! Are you kidding?

What's worse is that it's an energy storage center! How could it be stolen? Various questions and concerns kept flashing through the man's mind.

Yes, the energy storage center was indeed blown up, but he was not panicked at all. Because he knew very well that ordinary explosions could not cause substantial damage to those energy beads and the warp core. Especially the warp core, which is the core power source of the entire starship, and its sturdiness is self-evident. Unless it is a star destroyer that can destroy the entire No. 7 star in one shot, it is impossible to destroy it.

As for the theft? That's simply nonsense! You know, this is the warp core of a large starship, and its radiation intensity is so strong that even star-level or even stellar-level cultivators can hardly bear it. Therefore, the transportation and installation of the warp core must be completed by a special tool vehicle in the starship berthing, which is one of the reasons why starship berthing is so important.

However, now they actually told him that the warp core was stolen? How is this possible!? But his men would never dare to joke about such a thing...

At that moment, Liu Shan suddenly appeared in his mind, and this was not the first time! The starship berthing security measures in this place were extremely strict, and it was impossible for ordinary people to get close, let alone enter. However, Liu Shan had landed directly in the berth with the experimental subjects more than once, which was an extremely risky behavior.

Although he had some complaints about this in his heart, he could not blame Liu Shan too much because of her special status. This also led to the two of them not liking each other in their daily interactions.

But who could have thought that this time Liu Shan would have such a big problem! The three experimental subjects actually escaped, and also leaked the existence of the starship docking. What's worse is that even the theft of the warp core is probably inextricably linked to the three escaped experimental subjects.

Thinking of this, he picked up the phone without hesitation and dialed Liu Shan's number. At this moment, Liu Shan was walking around the office anxiously, thinking hard about how to catch Ye Ye. Just when he was upset, the phone rang suddenly.

At this time, Li Wei had already personally gone to the underground berth and launched a search for Ye Ye. After a careful review, they found that Ye Ye was most likely hiding in that toilet. This discovery made Li Wei look a little ugly, which was a result of his poor performance.

However, this was not the time to pursue these details. Liu Shan was extremely anxious and had no time to take care of other things. He made a prompt decision and urged Li Wei to go to the underground to dock immediately.

Liu Shan stood there, frowning, thinking about how to deal with this sudden situation. Just when he was feeling overwhelmed, his light brain suddenly rang a rapid ring.

Liu Shan's heart tightened and he quickly answered the phone. However, the news he received from the other end of the phone was like a bolt from the blue. His face turned pale in an instant, and his face was full of disbelief.

"What? Ninety percent of the starships are grounded? The energy cores are damaged and stolen!!" Liu Shan's voice trembled with shock. "How is this possible?"

His eyes widened, staring at the photo displayed on the computer screen. It was a photo of the energy core that had lost its former luster and was completely useless. Based on various signs, the person who stole the energy core's energy was most likely Ye Ye, whom he had just brought back!

Liu Shan felt a chill running down his spine, and his legs collapsed to the ground limply as if all the strength had been drained from them.

"This is impossible... This is absolutely impossible!"

Liushan murmured to himself, as if he had lost his soul.

Just when Liu Shan was in a state of extreme shock and despair, Ye Ye, who was grimacing in pain while docked underground, suddenly heard the system's crisp and pleasant prompt sound in his mind: "Beep! Liu Shan was successfully 'shocked' by the host, and the reward is issued."

This sound was like the sound of nature, instantly relaxing Ye Ye's nerves that were originally tense due to the pain. His eyes suddenly lit up, and his brows that were originally tightly furrowed due to the severe pain also seemed to be blown by the spring breeze and instantly relaxed.

"Mission accomplished!!"

Ye Ye shouted excitedly in his heart.

He couldn't wait to open the system interface, and sure enough, he saw the reward he had been dreaming of - the Royal Helicopter Ticket!

After seeing the system options, Ye Ye did not hesitate to choose option 2. For him, the beast power was all illusory, and only this helicopter ticket was the real truth!

The system had given a promotion ticket in the multiple-choice questions before, but the conditions were too harsh, which discouraged Ye Ye. However, this time he felt that he had a chance to try and challenge the bottom line of the system.

It turned out that Ye Ye's judgment was correct! He successfully completed the system's task and obtained this precious imperial upgrade ticket!

However, all this comes at a price... and this price is extremely painful. At this moment, the underground berth has become unrecognizable and in a mess. The originally neat and orderly space was completely destroyed by a bouncing bomb. This is no small matter. You know, in such a closed environment, the explosive power of the bomb will be infinitely magnified, and the consequences are simply unimaginable.

What's worse is that the terrain here is extremely narrow and Ye Ye has nowhere to hide. When the soldiers surrounded him, he could only desperately put on the Jade Shield like crazy. Fortunately, this was just an ordinary version of the bouncing bomb. Even at such a close distance, Ye Ye barely withstood the impact of the explosion.

However, despite this, his injuries were still very serious. Except for those soldiers who were too far away to arrive in time, the explosion almost emptied half of the underground berth. Lu Yue and others hid behind a huge starship that was a thousand meters long. Although they were also affected, they were generally fine.

However, Ye Ye achieved his goal. The safety door was still intact, but a huge gap was blown open around it. Almost instantly, a strong radiation leaked, making Ye Ye's head dizzy and making the situation even worse. He almost choked.

However, the system's relay action instantly alleviated Ye Ye's predicament. Without caring about anything else, the system directly let Ye Ye rush into the energy storage center. In just one minute, the energy storage center that stored many warp cores and energy beads set off an energy vortex and then returned to calm.

Ye Ye knew very well that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time. Any delay might bring more trouble. So he made a prompt decision. While everyone was still not aware of his presence, he quickly found a gap in the crowd and slipped out as nimbly as a cunning rabbit.

He hurried his steps, not daring to stop for even a second, and ran all the way until he was far away from that place of trouble, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. However, the injuries on his body did not allow him to have a chance to breathe, and he had to treat them as soon as possible.

Five minutes after Ye Ye left the scene, a group of staff wearing tight radiation protection clothing slowly arrived. They had obviously received an alarm and came to check the situation.

However, when they witnessed the tragic scene with their own eyes, everyone stood still as if they were under a spell, with shock on their faces.

The energy bead that was supposed to shine brightly had lost its former glory and became gray and lifeless on the table. The vital warp core seemed to have been drained of all its energy and became listless, lying crookedly on the ground like a withered flower.

"This...what the hell is going on?"

A staff member muttered, his voice full of disbelief.

The others looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

At the same time, in an unknown ventilation duct, Ye Ye was holding a jellyfish on his head and drinking some unknown healing potion with relish. Suddenly, a "Drip! Drop! Drop!" sound came from his mind, followed by the satisfied cry of the system.

"Ding! I'm full! I'm full! I'm full!"

Hearing this voice, Ye Ye couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face.

"Ding! After the security escort system arrives at Morning Star, the system will enter the system upgrade again."

Then, the system spoke again. Ye Ye was stunned. Is the system so full? It can actually upgrade the system?

"it is good."

Ye Ye nodded. System upgrade is definitely a good thing. Every system upgrade will bring new functions.

However, just after the system had eaten and drunk enough, Ye Ye thought to himself that it was time for him to improve his own strength. After all, in this universe full of unknowns and dangers, strength is the foundation of survival.

However, Ye Ye was still a little unsure about being promoted to the emperor level. He didn't know how much commotion such a promotion would cause. If it caused unnecessary trouble, it would be troublesome. Therefore, after careful consideration, Ye Ye decided not to use this promotion opportunity for the time being and wait for a safer and more stable time to act.

Just as Ye Ye was hesitating, suddenly, a violent vibration came without warning. The vibration was so strong that the entire starship began to shake, as if it was about to be torn apart. At the same time, the roar of the engine suddenly sounded, like an enraged beast, instantly resounding throughout the entire starship docking.

Ye Ye looked up in astonishment, but he could not see anything. The people on the ground looked at the location where the starships were docked, and saw seven starships of different shapes rushing out from the slowly opened sky like arrows, rushing straight into the vast starry sky. These starships were obviously accelerating at full speed, and their speed was so fast that it was jaw-dropping.

Finally, the No. 7 star seemed to have some reaction. However, this reaction was far from enough to deal with such a huge crisis. After all, those seven starships were just a drop in the bucket compared to the No. 5 fleet of China. What's worse is that these seven starships were not specially prepared to deal with such a situation. They were all starships that had just completed their missions and returned to the port. There was even a small starship that brought Ye Ye and others to the No. 7 starship, and that starship belonged to Liu Shan.

Li Lingzhi and Li Yi also fell silent when they saw the seven starships slowly approaching them.

Are they the funny people hired by the monkey?

Or is the American commander out of his mind?

Is this humiliating them?

For a moment, the two of them were a little confused about what the other was trying to do.

"Hmm.....how about a shot first?"

Li Yi looked tentatively at Li Lingzhi beside him. Even though he had rich combat experience, he didn't know what to do when faced with this situation.

"Just watch..."

Li Lingzhi narrowed her eyes slightly, obviously not understanding what the other party was going to do and was very confused.

As for the possibility that only these seven starships were able to move on Planet No. 7, she had not thought about it....

Seeing this, Li Yi shrugged and gave the order to open fire.
