Chapter 219
"We are not ordinary criminals."
Her voice was blurred by the thermal insulation suit, but she could tell that she was an old woman.
"God's merciful angel, we are all the families of spaceport officials. We beg your help."
"She said they were family members of spaceport officials?"
Soshyang asked sol, his voice wrapped in surprise.
"She wants to be released."
Sol came out of the darkness and stripped off the thermal insulation clothes of the bodies on the ground. As a result, the soldiers found that they were aliens.
"It seems that what she said is true."
Sol turned to the man in the cage and asked:
"Do you know why they kidnapped you?"
"Yes, they want to threaten our husbands and children to betray the Empire."
"What kind of conspiracy?"
"We don't know. They just imprison us here and provide basic food every day."
"Who are you?"
Saul noticed that there was another man in the cell besides the old man, a boy.
He flinched back, his eyes wide open behind the dark observation window of his thermal suit.
"I'm Marita, the former head of the airport transfer station."
The woman said, putting one hand on the boy's shoulder.
"And this is my grandson, Nick. His father is the current webmaster."
The boy looked up and looked directly at the angel's dark eyepiece and indifferent eyes.
"Those monsters ran to the house at night and caught my grandmother and me in this hot place. The food was not delicious at all, and the water smelled very bad."
Then the boy began to complain a little clumsily.
"Grandma always said that the emperor would save us, uncle tin. Are you sent by the emperor?"
In the communication channel, I don't know who laughed. Soshyang guessed that it should be almin.
Sol did not respond, but walked away from the cage in silence.
They then had a brief discussion.
"This is unreasonable."
Sol took the lead in expressing his views.
"They can directly control these people with infection. There is no need to kidnap them to such a deep underground."
"Maybe there's another purpose?"
Soshyang tried to analyze.
"These are the families of airport officials. Maybe they are preparing for their own future, but... Indeed, it can be directly infected."
He glanced back at the prisoners.
"Will they have been infected?"
"Maybe."
Sol nodded slightly.
"The best solution is to let the legal department take over the inspection when the matter here is known."
"But if they are not infected, it is not..."
Suddenly, Amin's voice came in.
"Even so, we have no spare power to take them, but it's safer here."
Amin then became silent.
After making the decision, soshyang went to the prison and said in a deep voice:
"We are on an urgent mission and can't take you with us. You stay here first. Someone will come to save you after the task is completed."
"Angels! Don't abandon us!"
There were dozens of prisoners in the nearby cells, who began to shout and shout, as close to the power grid as possible as their courage allowed.
"I understand your difficulties..."
The old man pushed the child forward.
"At least Nick, he --"
"I'm sorry."
Before soshyang could finish, a burst of fragmentation came and the alarm stopped.
The silence lasted only a moment.
With a burst of rock bed collapse, part of the chamber wall fell down, lava rushed through the crack, and the hot and dazzling jet hit the bare ground and spread rapidly.
At this time, soshyang realized the real source of the burning heat.
The abnormity introduced magma into the vicinity, forming a self destruction system.
"Anti escape device."
Sol ran and said calmly.
"Someone triggered it."
"Go."
Soshyang gave orders through the team channel. He had no time to convince people.
The prisoner found himself abandoned and began to scream and wail, but the Star Warrior turned a deaf ear.
The magma here diffused rapidly, and more and more rock walls on both sides began to collapse into the shining high heat and lava flow.
When the lava flow arrived, the scream reached the peak, and even the thermal insulation clothes began to burn.
Soshyang walked at the end. He could hear the cries, prayers and curses clearly. Almin tried to connect private communication several times, but he refused.
Suddenly, he stopped, turned around and stepped through the hot current.
The current on the cage had been extinguished due to the short circuit. Soshyang tore open the net door with his bare hands and extended his hand to the boy crying in his grandmother's arms.
"I'm not going anywhere without grandma!"
The boy shrieked up, but the old man pushed him out.
"Thank you for your mercy."
Soshyang silently grabbed the boy with one hand, then turned and began to run.
The rest of the team had headed for the stairs. The prison soon turned into hell. Everything was burning, including the people in the cage, turned into screaming candles.
Soshyang didn't look back at the scene. He put the boy under his arm with one hand and began to climb with the other hand.
Soon they were out of this hell.
Sol didn't ask soshyang why he did it, and others didn't question it.
Almin was relieved. Now he is also responsible for protecting the boy until he returns to the ground.
The team is gradually rising. The dark tunnels it passes seem to have been abandoned. Then it climbs up narrow stairwells and passes through increasingly low and crowded tunnels and rail locomotive lines.
Then they returned to the familiar mining area and found that the target was close at hand.
The mine cave here is cold and humid, which is very consistent with the characteristics of underground rivers.
While soshyang was relieved to return to the main road, a violent explosion suddenly occurred in their tunnel.
A wave of earth and rock hit ten star soldiers, hitting their armor and smashing them into the wall on the other side.
Almin reacted in an instant. He grabbed Nick and pulled him to his left, protecting the boy with his body.
Fortunately, the explosion power was not particularly strong and did not cause substantial damage, but when soshyang stood firm, the ambush came.
Wearing breathing masks and miner costumes, they rushed to the Star Warrior with morbid enthusiasm. Their eyes were wide open after the goggles of the respirator.
Laser cutters, percussion drills and even crude one handed pickaxes were waved in their hands.
But what makes soshiyang care more is their battle roar.
"For the shadow! For the Lord of the crow!!"
Under the impact of the explosion, most ordinary opponents can only fall to the ground and wait to die, but they face star soldiers. Even if they are in the center of the explosion, they have not been deterred.
Soshiyang pulled out his Shengyan sword and said only one word.
"Kill."
