Chapter 1268: Turning point (first update to celebrate the cute master fox)

Speaking of energy blocks, an embarrassing question came up. Daolang Qiqi Ai Ai said, "I really didn't bring so many when I came this time."

They came here to seek justice. Although they did not intend to fight, they could not come with a large number of energy blocks.

However, Tao Lang also knows very well that there is no need to mention banknotes or anything like that. In today's black area, it is insulting to mention it.

"Can we redeem some members first?"

"No," Qu Jianlei replied simply, "We can only package the deal."

Normally, it was normal to redeem prisoners in installments, but he didn't want to waste unnecessary time.

If you can trade with some people the first time, you will naturally be able to trade with some people the second time...problems may easily arise over time.

Also, the premiums for these captives are too high, so if they were to be split, it would really be a stretch.

Moreover, these prisoners know a lot about our own side. If we release some of them back, the other side will be able to make targeted arrangements after understanding the situation.

Qu Jianlei really didn't want to cause trouble, so he was very determined.

But Tao Lang is also a bit embarrassed. With so many starships and troops mobilized to come here, can he just go back like this?

He secretly discussed with Laoshu, "Senior, can you ask that senior to be a guarantee?"

Laoshu replied helplessly, "Let her guarantee... You don't know how troublesome this person is. I don't want to deal with her at all."

Tao Lang hesitated and asked, "But I feel like she is a little afraid of the digital phantom."

This is the biggest headache! The old tree sighed softly, "You can see it too?"

"It may not be because of how powerful the opponent is, maybe it's because she wants something from him... I've never really understood Duo Gan."

Tao Lang was speechless after hearing this, and after a while he muttered, "At her level, would she still ask for help from others?"

The old tree sighed softly, "The unknown is the most troublesome. It's better to go back."

As they left, the accompanying phenomenon did not continue to occur - everyone was waiting for the reaction of the thorns and flowers blooming.

However, Tao Lang did not announce what happened, and even issued a hush order to his own people.

——Others can plot against thorns and flowers bloom, so naturally he can plot against others.

But obviously, no one is a fool. If Dao Lang didn't react, that would be the biggest reaction.

However, some teams continued to contact Jingjihuakai and asked if they needed help.

Help me with a hammer! Daolang is very resentful - do you want to continue to test us?

So the answer he gave was: We are a little tired of the internal fighting in the empire. If we have time, we might as well continue to explore the black area.

Beyond that, he gave no further explanation.

However, other teams also understood this statement.

Even the Thorns and Flowers have accepted defeat, and the behavior of coercing the digital phantom obviously cannot continue.

Six days later, the two sides completed the exchange of prisoners and energy blocks, and everyone continued to search the black area in their own way.

Two days later, another secret camp of the alliance was discovered. The starship in question belonged to the "Struggle" team.

The name of this team sounds inspiring, but in fact, the more people lack something, the more they care about it.

The core composition of the struggle team is said to be the armed forces of several major consortiums. In addition to finding magic weapons, they also need to explore black areas.

They discovered the secret camp by accident. With random attacks, they finally won the prize at a certain moment.

But unfortunately, there were people in this secret camp, and they launched a counterattack immediately.

Two of the three starships were destroyed, and then the people in the secret camp packed up the warehouse and left quickly.

Finally, the discoverer sent the message in time, and a large number of starships from the struggle team came to help.

The battle lasted for two days, and in the end the fighting team eliminated most of the enemies.

Still, two small attack ships took advantage of the chaos and escaped.

In the black zone, the survival rate of small ships is very low, but the opponent has quite strong combat effectiveness, so the survivability may not be bad.

The losses suffered by the struggling team were also very heavy. It is said that the related gains were far from being able to offset the costs!

As for the speaking device, the struggle team said angrily: We have never seen it!

However, it doesn't mean that others will believe it if they say they have never seen it.

In the following days, starships from other teams appeared one after another, just to know the whereabouts of the magic weapon.

This time, they also enjoyed treatment similar to digital phantoms.

Even Qu Jianlei arrived in 1314, and Mrs. Jia used unscrupulous coercion - I'm happy with your harvest.

What especially surprised the struggle team was that Dogan also arrived with a starship and released pressure to use his mental power to investigate.

They wanted to get angry, but they really didn't have the courage, so they only dared to curse secretly in their hearts: Is this our fucking opportunity?

At the same time, some people also thought about something: Dogan didn't seem to have explored the gains of the Digital Phantom last time?

In fact, the experience of the digital phantom was much better than that of the struggling team - no team went to explore the gains of the digital phantom.

It's quite interesting to talk about this matter. It's not that the digital phantom is so powerful that everyone dare not touch it.

The key is that Qu Jianlei and the others fought so beautifully that by the time others noticed, they had already left.

The performance of the struggle team was so outstanding that one battle lasted more than two days!

All those starships are here to watch, how could they not investigate it carefully?

Of course, the mystery of the Digital Phantom does make everyone afraid to act rashly, but the origins of the struggle team cannot be hidden from anyone.

The unknown will always make people fearful, but the familiar ones are easy to say - are just a few major consortiums powerful?

Qu Jianlei and his party investigated for a day and believed that there was a high possibility that the other party had not harvested the magic weapon.

Then they left, but in the process of leaving, they discovered another malicious observation.

——Can you check the struggle team, but can't you feel the digital phantom?

Realizing this, after Ship 1314 returned, he directly summoned all the starships in the team to assemble.

After the starship assembly was completed, Qu Jianlei announced that this time the black area inspection mission was over!

In fact, a few days ago, they completed the third inspection of the black area and could declare it over.

But at that time, the team had just experienced a confrontation with Thorns and Flowers.

Although the ransom was obtained, the attitude of other teams was a mystery, and Qu Jianlei needed to observe before making a decision.

At that time, it was not appropriate to disband the team - ship 1314 could withstand malicious covetousness, but other starships might not be able to.

Although most of the starships were forcibly requisitioned, everyone also contributed during the search and inspection process.

And if it was disbanded regardless of the situation at that time, other starships might have some resentment in their hearts - no one is a fool.

With the situation developing now, while others are focusing on the struggle team, he can finally announce the disbandment.

The other starships were not surprised to receive this news - they could have been disbanded a few days ago.

It's just that the 1314 ship has accumulated so much prestige that it doesn't even have the courage to retaliate, so naturally no one dares to take the initiative.

Even those who want to leave the most are waiting to see which starship loses its composure. They will first make a request and then see the reaction of 1314.

Now that the boss has taken the initiative to express his intention to disband, many starships secretly let out a sigh of relief.

——The suffering for such a long time is finally coming to an end.

However, some people are eager to disband, while others are reluctant to disband.

The young master took the initiative to ask the question, "Boss, we don't want to stay in this dark area anymore. Can you take us out together?"

"Of course there's no problem with that," Qu Jianlei replied without hesitation.

Disbandment also needs to be organized. First, take back the equipment that was sent out, and at the same time return the looted materials one by one.

After completing this step, fake rewards will also be distributed.

Then there are the rebels and Alliance prisoners.

Qu Jianlei didn't want to keep any of them, so he sold them on a per-person basis to get some health back.

After more than four months of inspection in the black area, the fleet has spent more than 4 billion - the energy blocks alone have consumed more than 2 billion.

The ransom and the seized materials alone are far from enough to restore health.

The main reason is that the battalion-class ship was not retained - in fact, even if it was retained, it would not be easy to sell it.

Considering that the Alliance members were more popular than the rebels, Qu Jianlei decided to bundle the sales.

One alliance member plus three to four rebels is a sales unit, priced in groups.

However, it is very regrettable that the sales turned out to be lukewarm.

Qu Jianlei was a little confused and couldn't help but complain to Nutrient, "Does my credit seem so bad?"

But then, the big-headed butterfly began to spin in his mind.
To be continued...
