Chapter 273: Fury (Bonus Chapter for Book Friend Kongyu) (Third Update)

“Damn it! Those bastards.”

Mia’s face immediately darkened, and she cursed angrily.

“Teacher, what do we do now? How can we save so many people?”

“This is completely different from the previous intelligence. Didn’t it say that not many people survived?”

Rhine and the others immediately became anxious.

They had originally thought that a few hundred survivors at one shelter would be a lot, but it turned out there were so many survivors hiding there.

Su Ming sighed slightly, not knowing what to say.

“Stop talking, I’ll report the situation to Captain Wang Sheng first.”

Mia replied irritably.

Rhine and the others immediately shut their mouths. At this moment, Mia opened the team communication and said, suppressing her anger,

“Captain Wang Sheng, this is Teacher Mia. We have arrived at Safety Shelter No. 17. We found over ten thousand survivors here. What should we do next?”

“Over ten thousand? Mia, are you sure?”

In the communication channel, Captain Wang Sheng’s surprised voice immediately rang out.

“Confirmed!”

Mia replied with great certainty.

“How could there be so many survivors?”

Opham and the other teachers were also stunned.

However, just then, Teacher Tang Xuan’s voice also rang out, and she spoke with great anger.

“This is Tang Xuan. I have arrived at Safety Shelter No. 18. We found over ten thousand survivors here. Who issued this mission? They actually concealed such important information! I will definitely file a complaint with the Military Tribunal!”

“It’s over. How many survivors are there, exactly?”

Teacher Lu Ye of Class 19 said, his head throbbing.

“Please calm down, teachers. Now is not the time to pursue these responsibilities. The top priority now is to rescue the survivors. These are all citizens of our Federation!”

Captain Wang Sheng said, suppressing his surging emotions.

“How do we save them? With just this many of us?”

Mia asked coldly.

“Request assistance from Commander Xiao Ye, have the mothership dispatch small rescue ships, and at the same time, have all the students waiting outside come in to help.”

Captain Wang Sheng said, biting the bullet, offering his suggestion.

“Then let’s do that. Besides this, there’s no other good way.”

Opham, Tang Xuan, and the other teachers replied in agreement.

“Alright!”

Captain Wang Sheng let out a long sigh of relief and replied.

Inside the Red Fang’s command room.

Commander Xiao Ye sat quietly in the command chair, his expression very cold.

Vice Principal Fuleike, with his hands behind his back, paced back and forth in the command room like an ant on a hot pan, muttering incessantly.

“They’ve been in there for so long, why is there no news yet? Nothing bad happened, right? No, don’t jinx it, no news is the best news. If there was really a problem, they should have asked for help already.”

Just then, a distress signal popped up on the mothership’s operation screen.

Lieutenant An Jie immediately reported to Commander Xiao Ye.

“Commander, we received a distress signal from Captain Wang Sheng!”

“Quick, see what happened.”

Vice Principal Fuleike immediately rushed over and said.

Colonel Xiao Ye expressionlessly reached out and opened the distress signal. As he looked at the contents, his eyes immediately turned cold.

Fleck’s entire old face flushed with anger, and he said furiously,

“Bastards! These guys definitely deliberately concealed the information.”

“Lord Fleck, now is not the time to talk about this. The important thing is whether to save them or not. If we are to save them, we need to dispatch a large number of rescue ships and have all the students waiting outside enter to help.”

Colonel Xiao Ye replied in a deep voice.

“Isn’t that a rhetorical question? Can we not save them?”

Fleck snapped angrily. If they hadn’t taken on this mission, they could have chosen to ignore it. But now that they had taken on this mission and knew there were so many survivors, they had to rescue them to the end.

“I understand. My order: release the rescue ships, and command the external mechs to assist the rescue ships.”

Commander Xiao Ye gave the order coldly.

“Yes!”

Lieutenant An Jie immediately carried out Commander Xiao Ye’s order.

In the starry sky, the Level 4 mothership opened its ship exits one by one.

Small rescue ships, very small in size and shaped like plump fish, flew out one by one.

These small rescue ships were 10 meters high, 9 meters wide, and 100 meters long. They were standardly designed to rescue 1,000 people, but if forced, they could fit 1,500-2,000 people. They could only be used for short-distance rescues.

When these small rescue ships flew to the nautilus, at the H1 zone entry passage.

Students, one by one, piloted Iron Guards to escort the small rescue ships into the nautilus.

These Iron Guards flew in front of the rescue ships, using their hands to clear away some larger floating obstructions, clearing the path for the small rescue ships.

Soon, these small rescue ships, under the escort of the mechs, successfully entered the nautilus’s huge living area.

At this moment, voices began to ring out in Su Ming and their public communication channel.

“This is Rescue Ship No. 1. I have entered the living area. Please provide the rescue location.”

“Thank you very much. Please proceed immediately to Safety Shelter No. 17 and Safety Shelter No. 18 for preliminary rescue. The specific coordinates have already been sent to you.”

Captain Wang Sheng said hurriedly.

“Yes, Commander.”

One by one, the rescue ships flew towards Su Ming and Tang Xuan’s locations.

At this point, Wang Sheng, Captain said to the other teachers,

“Please, everyone, hurry and check the other safety shelters to see how many more survivors there are.”

“Understood!”

Steady voices responded one by one.

At this time, Su Ming and the others stood quietly outside the safety shelter, waiting.

Not long after, the first rescue ship, escorted by four Iron Guards, arrived here.

At this point, the small rescue ship began to adjust its angle, facing its side towards the entrance of the safety shelter’s passage. Then, a tube extended out, directly attaching to the emergency life-saving port on the safety door.

Click!

The emergency life-saving port immediately opened inward automatically.

“Quick, get into the rescue ship.”

Seeing the docking completed, Su Ming and the others piloted their mechs and shouted loudly to the people inside the shelter.

One by one, the surviving civilians joyfully swam directly through the pipe to board the ship.

Not long after, the first rescue ship, full of people, flew away, and the second rescue ship immediately took its place.

Inside the nautilus’s command room.

The tumor-like Kirami crashed around like lightning.

One Iron Guard after another frantically dodged, but its speed was too fast. Another Iron Guard was hit and exploded into pieces.

Aruike angrily lowered his beam cannon and fired a shot at Kirami.

Unfortunately, it was easily dodged by the opponent!

Boom!

The beam hit the wall and exploded.

“Bastard!”

Aruike went full power, his back thrusters spewing hot flames, attacking this Kirami.

“Be careful!”

Teacher Cheng Ke immediately issued a warning.

At this moment, that Kirami, like a bouncing ball, collided with the metal wall, then bounced back to attack Captain Aruike. The moment it got close, it once again grew countless sharp, tumor-like spikes.

Captain Aruike’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately activated his energy barrier.

Bang!

The energy barrier was instantly shattered.
