CHAPTER 1002: CHAPTER 415: DIRECT CONFRONTATION (FIVE-IN-ONE) (PART 7)

"Sorry, it was my mistake."

Timi replied with great apology.

"Timi, you don’t have to blame yourself; it’s not your fault. The Dark Forest itself is easy to get lost in. What’s done is done. We’ll find a way to solve it."

Su Ming took a deep breath and spoke rationally to Timi.

"Yes, Commander Su Ming."

Timi was somewhat touched as he replied to Su Ming’s words.

"Boss, what do we do now?"

Rhein asked nervously.

Just as Su Ming was about to answer Rhein,

suddenly the Wind Moving’s scanning device blared with a piercing alarm.

A big red dot appeared, followed by a black prompt popping up.

"Warning: Mechanical Clan Vanguard Fortress·Black Stone detected."

"Oh no, we’ve run into Black Stone Fortress."

Li Menghan reported in shock.

"Quick, turn the ship around and escape. Everyone prepare for battle!"

Upon hearing the news, Su Ming was taken aback, stood up from the command chair, and immediately issued orders.

He wanted to attack the Black Stone Fortress before because he had no choice; that guy was lurking around the treasure area, and the treasure might have been excavated by it.

But the situation is different now; the things have been obtained.

Su Ming had no intention of fighting it; every death would be a loss. Moreover, if they found out that his ship had a large amount of Eternal Metal, he couldn’t imagine how many Mechanical Clan troops it would attract.

"Yes!"

Timi immediately executed Su Ming’s order, sounding the ear-piercing battle alarm.

Inside Black Stone Fortress at this time,

a virtual operation screen continuously popped up lines of analytical information.

"Warning: Federation Level 4 Battleship detected!"

"Conducting enemy force analysis!"

"Target identified as one Fake V Generation Mecha, nineteen Fourth Generation Mecha·Thunder Guards...."

"Unknown forces several...."

"Comparing military strength!"

"Warning: Chance of victory only 47%, less than 50%!"

"Generate plan, retreat!"

"Immediate emergency retreat!"

...

Sator, seeing the displayed analysis data and plan, immediately hoarsely issued an order.

"Retreat!"

...

In the starry sky,

Black Stone Fortress and the Wind Moving both turned and fled in opposite directions.

Inside the central control of the Wind Moving,

Su Ming and others rushed quickly onto the moving platform. Just as they were about to take the moving platform to the hangar,

Timi, seeing Black Stone Fortress suddenly turn around, exclaimed in surprise.

"Commander Su Ming, wait, you don’t need to go into battle."

"Why?"

Su Ming was also startled and then asked in confusion.

"The other side also turned around and fled."

Timi explained with a slight smile.

After listening to Timi, Su Ming and the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

At this time, Rhein coughed and said,

"Boss, are we overthinking it? The other side seems more panicked than we are."

"Better safe than sorry."

Su Ming replied somewhat awkwardly.

"Boss is right."

Rhein and the others replied quickly.

More than an hour later.

Timi glanced at the scanning device and reported to Su Ming.

"Commander Su Ming, we’ve completely lost the other side, but where do we fly next? If we continue aimlessly, I’m afraid we’ll get even more lost."

"No need to worry about that, I’ll have Little Grey lead the way!"

Su Ming pondered for a moment, stood up, and said.

"Right, we still have Little Grey."

Rhein and others said happily.

"Thanks for the help."

Timi nodded in agreement.

Su Ming then took Little Grey towards the moving platform.

Soon after, Su Ming controlled the Fake V Generation Mecha·Shadow Lord to leave the Wind Moving.

In the cockpit, he spoke to Little Grey.

"Little Grey, show me the direction to fly to find Red Rock."

"Squeak squeak!"

Little Grey immediately flew up, using its claws to point the way for Su Ming.

Su Ming piloted the mecha towards the direction indicated by Little Grey, and the Wind Moving immediately followed.
