Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 689 - 367 Escape (5-in-1)_3

"Now you want to leave, dream on!"

The Shadow Demon Mecha suddenly burst forward, its speed skyrocketed as it caught up.

Su Ming saw the Shadow Demon Mecha approaching, his expression became increasingly grave, and he felt a bit anxious inside, but he wisely suppressed the negative emotions.

Suddenly, Horton’s voice rang out in Su Ming’s communication channel.

"Move aside!"

Su Ming was shocked and immediately looked up.

He saw Horton controlling the Executioner to return, suddenly opening the abdominal launch port, and two ultrafast Nuclear Bomb Missiles shot straight at the Shadow Demon.

Su Ming’s eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he quickly activated the Energy Barrier to hasten his escape.

The Shadow Demon Mecha did not have time to react, as two Nuclear Bomb Missiles instantly attacked.

Boom!

A blazing sun rose instantaneously, completely engulfing it.

"Damn, let’s see if you survive."

Horton shouted excitedly.

At this moment, Su Ming piloted the Slaughter Blade appearing next to Horton, grabbed his arm, and shouted.

"No time for that, hurry up and go!"

Horton snapped back to reality upon hearing Su Ming and rushed forward with him towards the Escape Ship.

"Quick, get on the ship!"

Su Yuan was flying at the entrance of the Escape Ship, constantly shouting at Su Ming and Horton.

Su Ming and Horton sped up desperately.

Su Yuan saw them about to reach the entrance and quickly controlled the mecha to rush inside.

The next second.

Su Ming and Horton also rushed inside.

At that moment, the level 3 Escape Ship, Wind Shuttle, sealed the entrance, and the entire ship vanished. It simultaneously maximized its power output, desperately fleeing.

Meanwhile, the Shadow Demon Mecha emerged embarrassingly from the explosion, staring angrily at the vanished Escape Ship, and roared furiously in the public channel.

"Damn!"

....

Inside the hangar.

Su Ming and Horton piloted their mechas and rushed in through the entrance.

Then the two mechas quickly braked.

Screech!

The mecha legs kept rubbing against the metal floor, throwing sparks everywhere.

Finally, Su Ming and Horton came to a halt.

"Phew~"

Su Ming exhaled a sigh of relief, at last, they had escaped back to the ship.

Yet none of those present dismounted their mechas, everyone’s nerves were still tense.

Horton angrily questioned Shadler.

"What the hell are you doing, we came to capture the Star Spirit, and got ambushed instead."

"Yeah! Shadler? What’s going on here."

Bain also asked angrily.

"I don’t know, I feel so confused and panicked."

Shadler replied anxiously and uneasily.

"Brother, what are you up to! You nearly got us killed."

Su Yuan also chimed in.

"I truly apologize to everyone, but I really have no idea what happened."

Shadler didn’t know how to explain.

Su Ming spoke up in a deep voice, questioning.

"Shadler, be honest, who gave you the intelligence? There’s clearly a problem, from the ambush, this was a trap."

"The intelligence shouldn’t be wrong."

Shadler insisted it was accurate.

"Who gave it to you then?"

"It’s...."

"Damn, at this point, and you’re still hemming and hawing."

"My father-in-law gave me this intelligence."

Shadler replied through clenched teeth.

Su Ming and the others were stunned by Shadler’s words, each exchanging glances.

Su Yuan hesitated before asking.

"Could your father-in-law be setting you up?"

"Impossible, my relationship with my wife is exceptionally good. Besides, my father-in-law and their family rely on my father, if I die, their entire clan would be doomed."

Shadler shook his head and replied.

Su Yuan and others didn’t know what to say when they heard this.

Su Ming pondered and said.

"Shadler, though this intelligence was provided by your father-in-law and corresponds with the situation at the Star Sea, it doesn’t mean there aren’t issues. It’s possible your father-in-law’s family has a problem, someone leaked the secret!"

"Exactly!"

Horton and others agreed.

"Ah? I’m not sure about that."

Shadler replied, feeling chaotic.

"The events have unfolded, saying anything won’t help, the priority now is survival and escape."

Su Ming advised everyone.

"Whatever, we’re all brothers here, nothing to say."

Horton and others, hearing Su Ming, didn’t continue to pursue the matter.

But Su Ming did not let it go, he began rationally analyzing the ambush issue.

The matter is far from simple, not only the intelligence is suspect. Most importantly, the ship’s backup power also malfunctioned, clearly someone sabotaged it.

Su Ming sensed an internal ghost among them.

Thinking of this, Su Ming sent Su Yuan encrypted communications.

Su Yuan received the encrypted communications and spoke awkwardly.

"Su Ming."

"Su Yuan, this time you’ve really gotten us killed."

"Sorry, I didn’t expect things to turn out this way. I just wanted us to hunt Star Spirits together for a big profit."

"Things are not that simple, we’ve clearly been drawn into the Shabask Kingdom’s royal conflict."

"Ah, I didn’t mean to get involved, I’m only close to Shadler, helping him as a brother."

"The problem is we’re involved now, but not all is bad. Such royal disputes can be very profitable, but failing can be deadly, mainly we’re not qualified to meddle!"

"What should we do now?"

"What else can be done, we have to survive first. But once this is over, we return alive, you’d better cut ties with him."

Su Ming said to Su Yuan with resignation.

"Alright."

Su Yuan replied quickly.

"Let’s not discuss this now, I have a serious suspicion."
