"Boss, youāre finally back."
...
Soon after.
The door to the central control room opened, and Su Ming walked in with a solemn expression.
"Boss."
Rhein and the others immediately approached.
"Hmm, everyone come over, letās have a strategy meeting."
Su Ming replied sternly.
"Alright!"
Rhein and the others responded immediately.
Su Ming and the others all walked to the small conference table in the corner of the central control room.
"Officer Su Ming, whatās the situation now?"
Timi asked gravely.
"The situation isnāt very optimistic. Iāve found the Mechanical Clanās stronghold here. They have quite a number of troops, and their main fortress is very strong! And the worst part, I found a suspicious area, the treasure might be inside, but that area is too close to the Mechanical Clanās fortress."
Su Ming said with great difficulty.
"What should we do then?"
Rhein and the others looked at Su Ming with great tension.
Su Mingās expression fluctuated for a moment, then he said to everyone.
"To explore that area, we must eliminate this Mechanical Clan force."
"Can we defeat them?"
"The opponent has quite a lot of troops, but we still have some nuclear bombs on hand that can clear the field; we should have a certain level of confidence in taking them out! Plus, thereās an advantage to this, if by any chance the treasure falls into the hands of the Mechanical Clan, we can snatch it back."
"What are we waiting for, letās get them!"
Rhein and the others answered fearlessly.
"Wait, currently my information is limited, I donāt know if there are any other Mechanical Clan forces nearby. Therefore, when we hit them, we have to act fast, or else things could easily go wrong."
"Understood."
"Then thereās no time to lose, immediately fill up my Mecha with nuclear bombs, weāll head out right away."
Su Ming ordered with a serious expression.
"Yes!"
Timi and the others responded immediately.
....
Hours later, Su Ming led Rhein and the others along with the Wind Moving, directly rushing into the starry sky where the Black Stone Fortress was entrenched.
The entire starry sky appeared empty at a glance, with nothing there.
"Boss, is this the place?"
"Why canāt we see even a Ghost Shadow?"
...
Rhein and the others asked curiously on the public communication channel.
"They must have fled!"
Su Ming pondered for a moment and said.
"Thatās great."
Rhein and the others said excitedly.
"Letās go, weād better dig up the treasure quickly, lest anything happens."
Su Ming immediately ordered Rhein and the others.
Although the Mechanical Clan retreated, thereās no telling when they might come back.
"Yes!"
Rhein and the others replied immediately.
Su Ming turned around and led everyone towards the nebula formed by the Black Dust.
Soon they passed through the thick nebula and arrived at a large Meteorite Zone.
Rhein and the others all piloted their mechas out.
"Spread out and search!"
Su Ming ordered.
"Yes!"
Rhein and the others replied immediately.
At that moment, Little Grey chirped at Su Ming, who then opened the cockpit and said.
"Go ahead, Little Grey."
Little Grey joyfully flew out.
Su Ming followed in his mecha.
Little Grey led Su Ming inside, and soon it flew to a drifting red stone and chirped excitedly.
Su Ming took a look; it was indeed Red Rock, confirming they were in the right place.
Suppressing his inner excitement, he signaled Little Grey to search for the planet.
Little Grey continued to fly forward.
Su Ming followed Little Grey through clusters of meteorites.
Hours later, a few barren and unremarkable planets appeared from the distant starry sky.
The surfaces of these planets were riddled with craters, looking like Swiss cheese.
Little Grey flew to the surface of one of the planets and made special calls at a protruding Red Rock.
Su Ming immediately opened the communication channel and informed everyone.
"Everyone, I found it. Come here now!"
"Really?!"
"On our way!"
.....
Rhein and the others responded excitedly.
Moments later, the Wind Moving and Rhein and the others all gathered there.
Everyone stared at the cratered planet, dumbfounded and puzzled.
"Why are these planets in such a state?"
"If Iām not mistaken, this should be the work of Prince Amis. But he hid things in places he once excavated to confuse others."
Su Ming glanced around, speaking in a deep voice.
This Prince Amis was indeed not a simple figure, his thinking was incredibly meticulous.
"I see!"
"Alright, enough talk. Everyone follow me and search, be careful while searching."
Su Ming said to the group.
"Understood!"
Rhein and the others said excitedly.
"Good, disperse!"
Su Ming waved his hand, and everyone flew out towards the planet in all directions.
