I rely on myself

Chapter 533 Jumping off the ship
“…This is truly a profound lesson!”

Ming Lai sighed with a serious expression, but he also knew that this was not the time to sigh, so he quickly suppressed those unnecessary emotions, resumed his calm thinking, and after thinking for a while, he quickly spoke.

"How badly has the ship's armor been damaged? Can it hold up long enough for us to force our way out of this smoke?"

The operator did not give an immediate answer. Instead, he operated the computer in front of him for a while, looked at the inferred data and said hesitantly: "...According to the computer's inference, there should be no problem, but this is only based on the number of mines dropped by the enemy not exceeding a certain number."

Unlike the operator's hesitation, Ming Lai smiled again when he heard the answer and said, "That's enough. It's more dangerous to stay in the smoke anyway. We might as well give it a try. Everyone is ready to break out."

After hearing Ming Lai's words, the other people in the bridge were stunned for a moment, and then everyone showed trust on their faces. They stopped saying anything more, and began to follow Ming Lai's orders and began to prepare for a breakout.

"Each engine has begun to warm up and can be started at any time."

"All impact preparations have been completed."

........................

Unlike the others who were busy, there was only one person in the bridge who seemed out of place, and that was Maruba. At this moment, he had a look of horror on his face. If possible, he would like to say something about whether there was a safer way, but it was obvious that this was not his ship, and the fear in his heart made him unable to speak at all.

At this moment, he could only pray desperately in his heart, praying that the next breakout would be safe and sound.

Soon, as all preparations for the breakout were completed and reported, Ming Lai did not hesitate and directly ordered a breakout.

In an instant, the thrust ports of the Warhammer were ignited at the same time. With the embellishment of these multiple flames, the ship started at an extremely fast speed, and it kept getting faster and faster, soon reaching the maximum speed of the ship and sailing quickly in the smoke.

As the ship sailed longer in the smoke, the solemn expressions on Ming Lai and others' faces gradually turned into confusion, because it was different from what they had expected, that they would occasionally touch some mines and cause explosions, or encounter other obstacles.

They didn't encounter anything or encounter any obstacles along the way.

"what happened?"

Ming Lai would naturally not let his guard down because of this. After all, he had underestimated Olga and the others, which led to them being trapped in the smoke. This led to this breakout that they thought was very difficult. He would naturally not forget this in such a short time.

But no matter how vigilant Ming Lai was, the actual situation of the breakout was very calm. They did not encounter any obstacles, and their ships flew out of the smoke range smoothly.

As the vision around them became clearer, Ming Lai and the others knew that they had successfully broken through. Although they were puzzled by this, they still had to continue doing what they were supposed to do.

"Immediately investigate the surrounding situation and find the location of the enemy ship as quickly as possible and display it on the display screen."

As soon as he came out of the smoke, Ming Lai immediately gave an order. Influenced by this, other people in the bridge ignored all other strange things and threw themselves into their work, but soon new doubts arose.

"We have detected the enemy ship's Yahapu waves, but... we haven't found any trace of the enemy ship."

"what?"

Ming Lai couldn't understand such an answer. Since he had detected the Yahapu wave of the enemy ship, he should be able to find the enemy ship easily. But now he couldn't find any trace of it. This undoubtedly made him very confused.

The operator seemed to know that this was hard to understand, so he projected the image based on the location of the detected Yahapu wave onto the big screen and explained, "This is the image based on the location of the detected Yahapu wave. As I said before, the enemy ship cannot be found at all."

The others in the bridge looked at the image on the big screen. Just as the operator had said, the image showed nothing but the vast space, let alone a huge ship.

It's not that no one suspected that the operator made a mistake and thus got the Yahapu wave's location wrong, but even if they confirmed the data again and again, they had to admit that the location where the Yahapu wave was detected was exactly where the image showed.

So what is going on here?
Just when Ming Lai was wondering about this, a weak vibration suddenly came.

Although it was very weak, Ming Lai didn't dare to ignore it at this time. After all, it might be an important clue, so he asked quickly.

"what happened?"

The operator at the side also hurriedly began to check and soon got the result: "A leak was detected at the rear of the ship, probably at the warehouse. The corresponding surveillance is now being retrieved."

Soon the surveillance footage was retrieved and displayed on the big screen. When everyone looked, they saw that several mobile engineers suddenly appeared in the originally empty warehouse. Ming Lai was very sure that these were not theirs. After all, they did not bring any mobile engineers this time.

And since it is not theirs, then the answer is very simple. The only question is——————

"Mobile Engineers?! How did they get into the ship?"

Ming Lai was very surprised that Olga and the others were able to invade the ship, but he was even more puzzled as to how they got in. At this moment, the alarm suddenly sounded, and the operator immediately reported.

"A Yahapu wave reaction has appeared in the rear, and it is rapidly expanding. And this reaction is... the Tekkadan!"

As if to prove this fact, a ship emerged from the smoke at the rear, breaking through the fog like a giant whale leaping out of the sea, and appeared in the eyes of everyone in Tabins. It was the fishing fire of the Tekkadan ship.

After the fishing fire jumped out of the fog, it showed no intention of slowing down and moved forward at full speed, biting the rear end of Tabins's ship's hammer tightly. At the same time, all the gun muzzles looked as if they were ready to fire at any time, which Tabins naturally saw.

"All the gun barrels of the enemy ships are locked on us. We can't get rid of them. Once we open fire, there is a high possibility that our ship will be directly shot down."

"!!!"

Upon hearing this terrible news, everyone on the bridge couldn't help but look panicked, except Ming Lai, who even had an admiring smile on his face.

"Remarkable! Since you have made it this far, it seems that I underestimated you... Don't worry, they won't open fire. Check the surveillance inside the ship to see where the invaders are."

"Ah... yes!"

The operator was a little slow to react when she heard the command at first, but soon she didn't think much about it and started to search according to Ming Lai's instructions. She soon found the so-called intruders and released the surveillance footage.

Several figures wearing space suits and holding machine guns appeared on the screen, and the leader was none other than Olga Itsuka, the representative of the so-called Tekkadan who had negotiated with them before.
