Purple Wind landed from the universe. Following the coordinates given by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, it slowly landed on top of a cliff castle leaning on the coast. This castle looked like it had a different kind of exotic style, full of classical charm but with a strong sense of technology. The mix of several different styles did not look ugly, and it was incomparably harmonious with the surrounding natural environment.
Although the castle looks intact, the high bridge in front of the castle is already badly damaged. At least there are no man-made buildings visible in the large area visible to the eye. Only this castle stands alone on the cliff, giving it an indescribable sense of history and mystery.
After walking out of the landing cabin, twenty or thirty members of Landing Force quickly ran out from both sides of Xiao Ran. Carrying weapons, they quickly and thoroughly inspected the front of the castle. Then the four people left behind and the others entered the castle carefully.
In the sky, two teams of Variable Fighter were hovering over the castle. A team of MS quickly flew out of Purple Wind and landed around the castle. Together with the Purple Wind on top of the castle, the entire castle was surrounded from the inside out.
Xiao Ran advanced all the way, followed by Cruze, followed by Saki, Aiba Shinyo, Guang, Yan, and Yao who were divided into two rows. They slowly advanced step by step until they reached the depths of the castle.
Saki suddenly quickened his pace and walked to Xiao Ran: "Landing Force's people have discovered the people in the castle and have now controlled them all. The results of Purple Wind's inspection of the castle have also come out. The person who discovered the castle should be a spaceship. According to the surrounding environment, the spacecraft has stayed here for more than 10,000 years."
Xiao Ran nodded lightly, Cruze frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then said, "It has been parked here for ten thousand years, and the internal facilities are intact, not to mention that there is no damage on the outside. This is not something that ordinary technology can achieve. As for the appearance, it is not worth mentioning."
"Technology Department still has a lot of time to slowly study these things." Xiao Ran smiled and said, "The most important thing now is to collect all five lions. Anyway, since they are in our hands, there is no chance of them running away."
Cruze smiled hoarsely and shook his head slightly, "Yes, but there is nothing about this spaceship in the information you gave us."
Xiao Ran shrugged his shoulders. "As long as there are important things, it's fine. If you really want to go out alone to carry out the mission, it's enough to see Five Lions and know who will cause harm and what the ultimate goal is."
A few minutes later, Xiao Ran and his group entered a control room in the castle. Inside, seven people and a group of very special and cute little mice were surrounded by people from Landing Force. They all stood together back to back with their hands raised, and the expressions on their faces looked a little angry.
After Xiao Ran appeared, these people immediately turned their attention to Xiao Ran and others. Unlike those Landing Force members who were fully armed and could not even see their faces, Xiao Ran and the others were clearly dressed and looked like normal humans.
A young man with a relatively strong body, his right hand seemed to be a mechanical arm, and a tuft of white hair on his head looked at Xiao Ran with his eyes. "Who are you! Why do you do this to us?"
"Does it matter to you who we are?" Xiao Ran crossed the encirclement, stopped about two meters away from the surrounded people, and said, "But what is important to me is that from now on, this place is taken over by us, together with the lion who brought you here."
Having said this Xiao Ran smiled and said, "But you can rest assured that we have no ill intentions towards you, but I also hope that you can cooperate with us as much as possible and don't let us have any misunderstandings and do something that may hurt you."
Xiao Ran finished speaking, the white-haired man was silent for a moment, and asked hesitantly, "Human?"
"Your statement is not appropriate. The princess next to you also considers herself a human being in their perception, but the difference is where she is." Xiao Ran pointed out the white-haired man's mistake and said, "If you want to talk about humans on earth, my answer is that there is not much difference. It should be different from the earth you understand."
"Let me introduce myself. I am Xiao Ran, Legion Leader of the Burning Legion. These people surrounding you are my brave warriors."
The few people surrounded showed confusion. "Burning Legion?"
"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. You just need to know that we are very powerful. We are more powerful than the aliens who chased you before and the people who once wiped out the country on this planet. We are so powerful that we can wipe them out casually. At this time, my legion has more than 6,000 warships and countless troops that have tightly surrounded this planet. To put it simply, we have taken a fancy to this place and plan to use this place as our stronghold in this galaxy in the future."
"Of course if we do such a thing, you can treat us as bad guys. It doesn't matter and it won't affect us. But I need to remind you again not to make any moves that make us misunderstand. I will keep you and take care of your lives, not as prisoners but as guests of our legion. But your lives are nothing compared to the lives of my soldiers."
Xiao Ran raised his left hand and tapped lightly. "I'm calling some people over and bring them all back to the fortress. Don't forget these little mice as well."
Of course it is no problem for more than twenty people to escort seven people, but in this world, after all, these people in front of Xiao Ran are the protagonists, and there is no guarantee that there will be no problems with twenty people.
Cruze walked up to Xiao Ran, looked at those people and glanced at the princess, and said to Xiao Ran with a smile, "Leave these people to me."
"Don't mess around." Xiao Ran reminded him softly, but he also acquiesced in handing these people over to Cruze, and then said, "Find the remaining lions as soon as possible. If the enemy gets them, it will be a big deal." It will be a bit troublesome. Who knows what kind of power the robots assembled by Five Lions will burst out if they fall into the hands of those people. Send them all to the fortress together with this spaceship, and let Technology Department send people to study it. "
Cruze smiled lightly, "I know what to do."
Xiao Ran shook his head and said nothing. He walked back to Saki and the others and said to Aiba Shinyo, "Xinye, for the time being, you will act with Cruze."
"Yeah."
After leaving the castle, Xiao Ran did not return to Purple Wind immediately. Instead, he stood in the small square outside the castle and looked at the surrounding scenery. Saki stood next to Xiao Ran, and Hana and the other three stood behind Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran turned around and looked at the three girls Hana with a smile. He also noticed the different expressions and body movements on the faces of the three girls. Guang was originally looking at the surrounding scenery, but after noticing Xiao Ran turning around to look at them, he crossed his arms and turned his head away, making a look of disinterest.
Homura folded his hands in front of his chest. After seeing Xiao Ran, he lowered his head and smiled gently. The most generous one was Yao, a combination of Light and Homura's personalities, not lacking in gentleness but also in frankness. He smiled at Xiao Ran and nodded lightly.
Xiao Ran asked, "What do you think of this place?"
Guang tilted his head and said without looking back, "I've seen it too much, and this is what it looks like."
"Xiaoguang." Homura glanced reproachfully, and then said to Xiao Ran, "This place is very beautiful. It is a completely different kind of natural scenery from that of the ship group. It has an indescribable sense of history. I like it here very much."
Yaoya said, "Compared with the unchanging sea of clouds, any place with such natural scenery will make people feel very comfortable."
Xiao Ran turned to look at Saki: "Saki, what do you think?"
Saki smiled slightly, glanced at the three girls and said with a smile, "As long as you are here, this is the best place."
"Haha." Xiao Ran laughed loudly and said, "After the warship is removed, let the people from the engineering department build a castle on the spot. We will live here next. We don't know how long this mission will last. We must find a comfortable place to stay."
"Yeah." Saki smiled softly and nodded.
Returning to the universe, New Burning Legion returned from Purple Wind. Xiao Ran returned to the bridge and sat next to Mwu: "How long will it take to complete the investigation of this planet?"
"About three hours." Mwu looked at the time and replied, "But judging from the current investigation, this planet is a very livable planet. In terms of resources, it can only be said to be average. There are many edible plants, but what makes people feel strange is that there are only a few living things on the entire planet, both in terms of species and quantity. There are only a lot of fish, as if they have suffered from biological extinction before."
Xiao Ran said, "Meat can be cultivated on the earth. The biological resources of the two planets are enough to supply the normal consumption of the legion. There is no need to worry about similar mineral resources. They are everywhere in the entire universe. Let's use this as the main stronghold. On the earth, let Yuzes and Revil be responsible for using it as the second stronghold."
Mwu reminded, "The earth is already being targeted by the local forces of this world, and this planet is no exception. Don't you need to find a more secret place as a base?"
"We will wait until the outgoing battleships come back before arranging this matter, but it is definitely necessary." Xiao Ran said, "The problem now is that we don't know where the other party is, and they don't know where we are. It is also very dangerous to waste time aimlessly searching in the entire galaxy. How about we take the initiative to expose our position."
Xiao Ran said with the corner of his mouth raised, "Inform Jeffrey and Datie that after the investigation of this planet is completed, the entire fleet will land. You will also arrange for half of the force to be hidden. I am looking forward to giving our friends a special surprise and welcome ceremony."
"When they head to Earth and find this side, a fool will know which side to capture first after comparing the strength of the two sides. If they attack this side, it will be a lot of fun."
Mwu couldn't help but glared at Xiao Ran when he heard Xiao Ran's arrangement, but he still informed Xiao Ran as he said.
Suddenly, the communicator at Mwu's hand rang. Not long after picking it up, Mwu looked at Xiao Ran: "Cruze has determined the location of the two lions, the green and yellow lions, but if you want to obtain them in the normal way, you must bring the people you captured before."
"Also, the local force Glaive Empire in this world has just sent a warning to the people below, asking them to hand over the lion. According to calculations, Glaive Empire's power will arrive in three days."
Xiao Ran waved his hand. "There is no need to obtain it in any normal way. Those lions have the ability to activate Space Gate. Once those people sit in the cockpit, the result will be hard to say. Just dig it out and bring it back."
After groaning, Xiao Ran added, "There is no need to send too many troops. Just send five warships over with all A-level and above S-level teams. If there are intercepting enemies, put on a show if they are weak, and show off if they are strong. Let them control their own sense of proportion, but they must bring things back, but the possibility of encountering enemies should not be high. On the contrary, after three days, our friends may very well show up."
Mwu asked, "Do you think they will appear over Glaive Empire?"
Xiao Ran said, "The possibility is not small, but be prepared. If there are really people coming, it is estimated that there will not be too many people. It is very likely that it will only be one of the legions. We will eat them all with half of our fleet."
Guang pouted at the side. "Are you so sure?"
"It's not necessarily just a guess." Xiao Ran took a look and said, "Let me ask you another question. If you are a leader, of course it is not the size of our army. The number of battleships is probably not enough. Even if you have battleships, there are not many that can Space Jump type, what would you do if you encounter a battleship that is not very powerful but has the ability to jump? The inference based on this is that there are not many worlds involving Super Zone, and even fewer have the ability of Space Jump."
Guang replied without hesitation, "Of course I'll grab it."
"After snatching it, I found that the force to which this warship belongs actually has more warships, and has a huge territory, unlimited resources, countless warriors, and its combat effectiveness is much lower than yours. What will you do?"
Guang thought for a while and said, "Go over and grab more battleships? No, grab the entire force?"
Xiao Ran smiled, "The result is already obvious, isn't it? You will make such a choice, then the other party will definitely make such a choice, but there may be some differences in the means."
Wow, I'm so heavy-handed, I'm sorry, but I don't want to take the blame for this. It's probably a problem with the backend. After posting this chapter, I went to modify the previous chapter. I don't know if it was a network problem or a backend problem~~~~~I changed a few words in this chapter after posting it to the backend~~~~
