The reason why Baron was able to borrow this fleet has something to do with his identity as Department of Anomalous Affairs.

But the main reason is because he has a bad temper and a surly personality. No one wants to offend such a mentally ill person.

Also, the nature of the Hongjingtian team is in line with the fleet's combat goals, and they are all in Asteroid Belt.

The combination of these three allowed him to borrow this fleet in his own name.

But even so, he couldn't afford the consequences of the fleet's destruction - even if it was a tragic victory, he would have enough room for maneuver.

It was precisely because of this that in the end he didn't want to live anymore and insisted on fighting Qu Jianlei in a duel.

Of course, with this guy's arrogant character, he probably wouldn't be able to accept such a disastrous defeat calmly.

So it's not surprising that he would go all out to save face.

In addition, Qu Jianlei also deliberately learned about the origins of the two Armed Merchant Ship.

The two starships are indeed related to Flying Eagle Group, and they are temporarily employed.

However, these resources were also brought together by Baron.

Flying Eagle knew that he had offended Hongjingtian Team and was about to face retaliation. He wanted to compensate honestly, but he was a little unwilling to do so.

At this time, Baron sent someone to send a message, saying that he can recommend two Armed Merchant Ship to participate, and you can just pay a nominal fee.

Flying Eagle naturally didn't have the guts to offend him - compared to Hongjingtian Team, Baron seemed to be stronger.

Anyway, they are struggling in their hearts, so it is normal to take this opportunity to participate.

So Flying Eagle Group half-heartedly agreed, and when 8384 Ship arrived, they cooperated and compensated.

In fact, this is the nature of a businessman. There is usually a lot of robbery, but when you encounter someone you can't afford, it's not uncommon to bet on both sides.

However, the asking price of Qu Jianlei was still a bit beyond their expectations.

So Flying Eagle secretly delayed it for a while to facilitate Baron's layout.

This is the general situation of the entire incident, and there is no need to go into more details.

After Qu Jianlei understood what had happened, he handed over the fate of these prisoners to Paranoid and Hua Xiezhi.

He knew very well how ruthless these two people were, but he didn't feel the slightest regret in his heart.

After this battle, the entire team suffered heavy losses. Someone has to pay the price, right?

Paranoid gladly accepted the arrangement, "Department of Anomalous Affairs people are doing things... haha, they are more inhumane than you think."

Four days later, the three starships completed the jump and headed straight for Tianfeng Star.

But this time, Qu Jianlei can no longer take out the military's special pass.

When Unlucky Starship was still half a day away from Tianfeng Star, it was intercepted by an armed starship.

However, although it is said to be an armed starship, it is actually related to the military at a glance.

It can be seen from the appearance that this starship is more than 90% similar to a warship.

Even the painting is so careless, just apply it in a pretentious manner and it's done.

However, it is actually understandable for the military to do this. The current situation at Skyhook Star Region is really a bit chaotic.

The military must show cooperation everywhere, but it really doesn't have the energy to send warships to inspect.

The key is that once a warship is dispatched, people who don't know the truth are likely to misinterpret it - or over-interpret it.

So it is better to outsource the inspection tasks and save yourself the worry.

However, when it comes to "outsourcing", everyone knows that there is no way that the truly in-demand jobs will be lost to outsiders! The attitude of the armed starship was very blunt, and he said very simply, "Stop the ship and accept inspection!"

As for what qualifications it has to inspect foreign starships, there is no explanation at all, as if it is a matter of course.

Qu Jianlei also changed from his usual attitude and did not raise any questions.

The other party's attitude was quite blunt, but it was okay anyway. Unlucky Starship had the pass of Hope Star Region.

This pass is not valid for Skyhook Star Region, but it is better than nothing, and Qu Jianlei also conveniently showed it.

The documents can at least prove that this starship has some credibility within a certain area!

After checking the documents, the other party asked, "Why are you here?"

Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "There is Celestial Hook Mystic Mansion here, come and take a look."

This answer was actually quite vague. He did not explain what he planned to see, let alone why he came to the Mystic Mansion.

Is there a junior in the family who wants to intern, or someone is planning to break out of the situation and want to find an opportunity.

However, this kind of ambiguity is the normal reaction of people in society - I have given the answer, but if you ask in detail, it will be a taboo.

The person on the other side really didn't pursue the matter further, and just snorted disdainfully, "Mystic Mansion... How much do you know?"

Then the voice became cold and stern again, "Okay, open the hatch, we have to check."

Qu Jianlei After so long of interstellar voyages, no one has ever inspected her starship. This is the first time a big girl has boarded a sedan.

This feeling was very bad, but he also knew that this was unavoidable in ordinary people's interstellar voyages.

And with his current status, when encountering something like this, it is a normal reaction to cooperate obediently.

Anyway, it was just this once, it didn't matter, so he opened the hatch.

The bridge docked, and five people walked up from the opposite side. The leader was Rank B Awakened One.

Don't underestimate Rank B. In this situation, having a Rank B is already amazing. Usually a C-level one is enough.

This also means that the situation here is probably a bit tense recently, otherwise this configuration would not appear.

The five people came in and were stunned, "Is it so empty?"

Unlucky Starship is a merchant ship with reinforced armor. The space is slightly smaller, but the cabin can easily accommodate twenty or thirty crew members.

Generally speaking, this kind of Armed Merchant Ship should be equipped with at least a dozen crew members. Manpower shortage will lead to shortage of personnel.

Theoretically, one person can operate a starship, but this is simply impossible.

The inspectors were quite surprised to see that there were only three crew members in the huge starship.

This configuration can barely meet the minimum configuration for interstellar navigation, but... what if a battle breaks out? Hua Xiezhi frowned when he heard this, "Since you are here for inspection, then stop talking nonsense!"

Her Rank A aura can't be concealed from others, and she is considered to have the highest level of cultivation among the three.

Qu Jianlei disguises itself as Rank B Water Attribute, Paranoid is even more extreme, there is no Awakened One breath at all, it feels like Modified Warrior.

Rank B, who is leading the team, is not worried about an accident. As things have developed so far, everything is normal.

He checked a lot of people, and it's not like he had never seen Rank A. Most of the time, no one would make trouble at this time.

However, it is best not to completely ignore what Rank A said.

He stopped asking about the crew and waved his hand, "Okay, open Cargo Hold!"

Naturally, there was nothing abnormal in the inspection, even though they were angry and deliberately checked carefully.

The items in Cargo Hold are Buduo, which is Energy Block, ammunition, daily necessities and some industrial materials.

When they asked why they loaded them, Qu Jianlei lazily replied, "We use them ourselves."

There's nothing wrong with that. Even though it's Armed Merchant Ship, it doesn't mean it has to be loaded with cargo - people like space travel, right?

The key is that without any prohibited items, there is no chance to make a fuss.

And the person who answered was also Rank B. The three crew members were a little short, but with Rank A and Rank B, the strength was really not bad.

Someone was careful and noticed that the weapon system was a little strange, so he asked in a deep voice, "Have you fired recently?"

The three crew members didn't say anything, they just looked at him coldly, the meaning was obvious - whether we fired too much is none of your business! In fact, this anomaly is worth catching and investigating carefully.

But it's obvious that these three are really not good friends, and this merchant ship... just from the armor, you can tell that they are not short of money.

So Rank B waved his hand and left with the others.

However, there is still a trace of resentment in some people's eyes, and they don't know if they will arrange someone to take revenge at the Star Port.

After closing the hatch, Hua Xiezhi sighed deeply, "I still miss the military pass a little bit."

The difference between those with documents and those without documents was really obvious. Qu Jianlei could only smile helplessly when he heard this.

He didn't want to give up a peaceful life, but unfortunately, the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind didn't stop, so Baron had to climb up the pole to find trouble.

After this encounter, there was no other trouble, and we arrived above Tianfeng Star smoothly.

Tianfeng Star There are several more warships outside, suspended in space, adding a bit of a solemn atmosphere to the entire planet.

According to the procedure, if Unlucky Starship wants to land, he must submit a landing application and undergo inspection again.

But Qu Jianlei didn't do that. He secretly ordered Xiao Hu, "Search for news on the planet."

The starship is now 70,000 to 80,000 kilometers away from the planet, and is already in a state of smooth communication.

Before Qu Jianlei left, he left two Pioneers for Old Lady and the others. Apart from anything else, long-distance communication is no problem.

Big Head Butterfly turned a few times and then replied, "They left a message and have left Tianfeng."

A Pioneer was hidden in an abandoned house and connected to a battery, working with minimal energy consumption.

That abandoned house was two hundred kilometers away from the yard where they rented, so one can imagine that they left quite calmly.

"Went to Transit Star with a false identity?" Qu Jianlei frowned, "Let's see what news there is about us."

This time, Xiao Hu took Buduo five minutes to answer this question.

"There is no clear news, but there is a secret message. All kinds of special passes must be strictly checked and reported in a timely manner."

"Oh, by the way, this request appeared five days ago... This is more consistent with the time of our battle."

"There's no need to guess," Paranoid said in time, "The information must have been sent back!"

"It's just that the military is not sure about the results of the war, and they don't want to be laughed at for the certificate they issued... They will not be very cooperative Department of Anomalous Affairs."

He is quite familiar with the relationship between the military and Department of Anomalous Affairs.

"It spread really fast," Qu Jianlei muttered softly.

But now he has no intention of thinking about how this news came, "Since they have left, we won't land anymore!"
