Xiao Jie felt a chill run down his spine for no reason, and he subconsciously shivered. He looked around, but didn't notice anything unusual.

At this moment, the indigenous people present shouted emotionally.

"Get out of here, quickly!"

"You are not welcome here."

......

Su Mo and the others bowed and left with heavy hearts.

Garn watched Su Mo and the others leave, his old face showing a trace of fatigue. He sighed and shook his head.

--------------------------------------------------

Inside the huge underground city factories.

The manufacturing machines suddenly started running at full power.

Giant molds descended,

A hissing sound could be heard inside. Then the molds began to slowly rise.

Rows of security guards were being printed out.

Immediately afterward, rows of security guards were pushed off the production line, and lasers scanned their entire bodies, automatically recording the system programs.

Then the security guards opened their eyes, all with red eyes, and ran out of the factory.

......

Soon after, Su Mo and the others were all driven out. They temporarily stopped in a relatively wide underground tunnel area.

The atmosphere of the entire team seemed particularly depressing.

"Everyone, I'm really sorry. This situation was caused by our mistake."

Xiao Jie looked very apologetic and apologized to everyone.

At this moment, Lin Ming, whose face was extremely gloomy, suddenly exploded and walked straight towards Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie subconsciously felt a little afraid and took a step back.

"Xiao Jie, and you guys, listen up. Don't think this is over. Because of your cowardly and stupid actions, not only did our team members sacrifice themselves, but also our allies suffered heavy casualties. I've noted this down."

"It's not like that, Brother Lin Ming, listen to our explanation, we really had no choice."

Ye Wuhen also panicked and said quickly.

"Don't call me brother, call me officer!"

Lin Ming was like an angry lion, his eyes were bloodshot and extremely frightening.

"Officer, under those circumstances, we really couldn't hold on. You also saw that there were too many enemies chasing us, and their firepower was so fierce."

Xiao Jie felt that something was wrong and quickly explained.

"Xiao Jie, I have clearly told you and issued orders that you are strictly prohibited from approaching us. You openly violated superior orders. To put it bluntly, you disobeyed military orders! If it weren't for the fact that we are all part of the Federation, I would have shot you long ago. You just wait and see, we'll meet in military court when we get back!"

Lin Ming directly issued a severe notice to Xiao Jie and others.

Qian Chengxue, Kalinsa, and Witke all watched this scene coldly, without any intention of persuasion.

Hearing Lin Ming's words, Xiao Jie and others were completely panicked.

"Officer, although we disobeyed orders, we are not deserters. At most, it was an emergency to avoid danger. It shouldn't warrant a military court, right?"

"Yes, we know we were wrong."

......

Unfortunately, Lin Ming remained unmoved. The actions of Xiao Jie and others had crossed his bottom line.

"There's no need to say anything, there's no room for discussion on this matter!"

As for Su Mo, it was even more impossible for him to help. He didn't have any good feelings for this group of guys in the first place. Because of their actions, not to mention how many people died on Garn's side, out of the one hundred elites who participated in the exploration, thirty-seven died and more than twenty were injured.

Seeing Lin Ming's firm attitude, and that no one present was willing to help, and that they all looked at him with very cold eyes, Xiao Jie felt even more uneasy.

Things couldn't continue like this, otherwise they might be abandoned. His mind raced, and suddenly an idea popped into his head.

So Xiao Jie said with a very repentant look, "Lin Ming, we were really wrong, but we wouldn't have done that if we had any other choice. We are also risking our lives for the Federal Government, please give us a chance. This time we discovered a very important strategic factory, which contains a large number of third-generation mechas, and they are the latest type powered by energy stones. It will definitely be of great use to the Federal Government. We also have our own difficulties. I will take you there immediately to show our loyalty!"

"You think I'll believe your words?"

Lin Ming didn't trust Xiao Jie and the others anymore.

Su Mo didn't believe Xiao Jie's nonsense at all. Given the character of this group of people, would they be so kind? He said coldly.

"No way I'm believing that! I'm not going!"

"Su Mo, don't go too far. You were just an employee of our Dawn Group. Who took you in? Who gave you food to eat? Who gave you a stage to show yourself? Now that your wings have hardened, you're turning against your own people?"

Ye Wei jumped out, gnashing her teeth, and accused Su Mo with a barrage of insults.

Before Su Mo could retort, Qian Chengxue looked at Ye Wei coldly, "Ye Wei, don't you know what you did before? No one owes you anything, and you are not qualified to accuse Su Mo. Don't forget what you just did?"

Ye Wei took a step back subconsciously. The shame in her heart made her very angry. But she didn't dare to get angry with Qian Chengxue like she used to.

Because Qian Chengxue's current status was different than before, even the older generation of the family needed to talk to her calmly.

Just then, the voice of Fabricator·Devourer sounded in Su Mo's mind.

"Go!"

Hearing the words of Fabricator·Devourer, ten thousand *cao ni ma* galloped through Su Mo's mind. Was this guy sick in the head? Why didn't he say it earlier?

Now that he spoke up, wasn't he just making himself look bad?

Now he could only hope that others would offer a different opinion.

The result was a very embarrassing scene. Witke sarcastically said, "Go get third-generation mechas? I'm afraid we'll go and never return. You'd be so kind as to tell us this information? We don't want to be used as pawns again. We don't want to go and never return."

Kalinsa also said with a skeptical attitude, "I think there's definitely something fishy about what you're saying."

Xiao Jie said with a brazen face and a wry smile, "Officers, you've misunderstood. We really want to atone for our sins and prove our innocence. Moreover, you can ask all of us about the third-generation mecha. If even one person says it's false, I'm willing to accept the punishment."

"That's right, we can all prove it."

Ye Wuhen and others spoke up one after another, responding with assurances.

Seeing that they were so sure, Lin Ming's tense expression also loosened a little. They didn't have any mechas now, and their situation was very dangerous. If they could get the third-generation mechas, they would have some ability to protect themselves.

Seeing that Lin Ming was a little shaken, Xiao Jie immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Brother Lin Ming, there are also a lot of high-level energy stones in that armory. At that time, we can fully charge the fourth-generation mechas and the ships outside, regain our own weapons, and escape from here."

After hearing Xiao Jie's words, Lin Ming was also very conflicted. If there really were third-generation mechas and energy blocks, then it would indeed be very important to them. So he turned to look at Su Mo and the others.

"What do you think?"
