Chapter 81 Reunion
So, after chasing the two unlucky devils, would the Iron-Blooded Star Clan's mothership and its sub-ships still have the ability to turn back and catch up with the remaining four?
Everyone knew the answer in their hearts; it was mostly impossible.
Because the technological gap between the two sides wasn't that great, and this place was only a "mere" two million seven hundred thousand kilometers away from the Little Eagle base—which really wasn't much when it came to vast space flight—it was like a Porsche Cayenne would definitely beat a Jialing 125 motorcycle in a speed contest. But if you made the Cayenne drive a few kilometers in the opposite direction first, and then chase the Jialing 125 motorcycle, and also limit the chase distance to only ten kilometers, then obviously, the Cayenne would also be powerless. After all, the Jialing 125 wasn't a horse-drawn carriage; both were technological products of the same era.
Fang Senyan had long known this, but why did he propose seizing the Iron-Blooded Star Clan's spaceship at the time? That was because he had regarded the entire team as "his own people" when he made the suggestion.
What was the difference between Fang Senyan's plan and the "Wasp Probe returning on its own" plan?
The biggest difference was that Fang Senyan's proposal was the only possible way to ensure the safe return of everyone after gathering everyone's strength. However, the disadvantage of this proposal was that it could also lead to the complete annihilation of the entire team.
The latter proposal was full of the flavor of "when disaster strikes, everyone flies away on their own." Two unlucky guys would definitely die, but the rest would have a high chance of escaping.
After obtaining satisfaction, there was no doubt that everyone's thinking had changed. The strong team that was gradually taking shape instantly analyzed and collapsed, becoming a pile of loose sand. There were many such examples in history; otherwise, no one would lament the ease of sharing poverty and the difficulty of sharing wealth, and record it in history books.
Although Fang Senyan was good at planning and scheming, he could never completely understand the most complex thing in this world, which was the human heart. Fang Senyan didn't even make a final effort, because he had already found their final answer in the eyes of these guys.
So Fang Senyan didn't try to do anything useless. He said simply:
"Then let's return to Mushroom Rock."
Fang Senyan said this, but his mind naturally sank into the special Wasp aircraft in the team's shared space. A sneer appeared on the corner of his lips. The following thought flashed coldly in his mind:
"Gathered together, I am the leader, I am the core. If we fight separately, can't I survive?"
Obviously, Paul, who was good at controlling metal, was a little surprised by Fang Senyan's straightforwardness. He couldn't help but say:
"Sailor, didn't you propose to seize the Iron-Blooded Star Clan's spaceship?"
Fang Senyan smiled and said:
"For me to do this alone is tantamount to suicide."
But at this time, Aldaris said faintly:
"What about two people?"
Fang Senyan was about to reply, but Ronnie suddenly said stiffly:
"Three people."
Fang Senyan shrugged his shoulders and said:
"Whether it's seizing the ship or returning directly, many risks are almost the same. If we choose the Wasp Probe, then two people will definitely be caught up, and the mortality rate for each person is 33%. If three people go to seize the spaceship, the mortality rate exceeds 80%. So, there's no need to hesitate anymore, let's go."

The next thing didn't need to be elaborated on. According to Artificial Human No. 1's markings and route, the group accurately arrived at the migration path of the striped cattle, giant-hoofed sheep, and wildebeest.
These huge creatures, as long as they weren't attacked, were quite docile and didn't mind giving someone a ride, especially when these passengers could drive away and clean up those annoying blood-sucking insects for them. The horseflies, ticks, and other parasites here had also mutated to a very serious extent, so the trouble they caused these big guys was also particularly great.
Therefore, when the cattle stopped to drink water, the few striped cattle being ridden didn't feel like they were being taken advantage of at all. Instead, they looked at their own kind with vigilant eyes, fearing that they would come and snatch away the "prey" on their backs.
The striped cattle galloped very fast on the plains. Even though it was a cloudy day, in less than five hours, Fang Senyan and the others had already seen the abruptly rising, towering outline of the plateau. Even for professional mountaineers, those craggy and steep rock walls were an extremely difficult test, but for this team with Bokan, it was just a matter of Bokan flicking his fingers, and a climbable path would soar upwards.
In less than ten minutes, the familiar scenery of the Mushroom Rock plain appeared before their eyes again. Thinking of the confusion and panic when they had just arrived here a few days ago, everyone felt a sense of having been through a lifetime. Fang Senyan still said very seriously at this time:
"If I guessed correctly, this place has now become the territory of another type of powerful creature. We have to be extra careful now. After all, the previous areas were either marked as dangerous by the spaceship, or they were on the migration route of thousands of striped cattle. Even though our scent is covered up, let's still move forward in a low-key manner."
The crowd still listened to Fang Senyan's words and nodded one after another.
However, at this moment, an indescribable feeling spread throughout their bodies again. Immediately afterwards, they all groaned and covered their arms. It could be seen that blood was flowing out of their arms in a strange manner. Then, that mark, that talisman they relied on for protection—accurately speaking, the mark that indicated that they were the prey of the Iron-Blooded Star Clan—actually melted away slowly!!!!!!!
"We've been discovered." Compared to the panic of the others, Fang Senyan was the first to recover. He took a deep breath and then said seriously:
"Prepare for battle. The closest we are to the place where the aircraft is buried is more than ten kilometers, right? There's definitely not enough time. I believe that the Iron-Blooded Star Clan, who have been looking for us for a long time, are already very impatient and can't wait to see us!"
Fang Senyan's words were undoubtedly very reasonable, but he still noticed that Paul curled his lips with contempt. This emotion seemed to have just sprouted from his mind, or rather, it had been buried for a long time before erupting.
But because Fang Senyan's words were very reasonable, this already centrifugal team still carried out the final gathering. Fang Senyan stood in front as always, but after taking a cold look at the incomplete Iron Demon statue beside him, he suddenly turned to look at Paul:
"Do you want to die?"
Fang Senyan said these four words very calmly, but everyone felt an extremely terrifying aura emanating from his body, especially D'Artagnan, whose hands even trembled uncontrollably.
The muscles on Paul's face twitched, but his eyes were as unruly as a wolf's:
"What do you mean?"
Fang Senyan took a step forward:
"Do I have to say it more clearly? You're using this piece of junk to block in front, are you trying to make everyone die together? Then I'll fulfill you first?"
Paul sneered:
"But I don't have any other puppet statues. Do you know how much this thing costs?"
Fang Senyan pointed at him and said slowly:
"Then do you know how much money I spent doing both MT, output, auxiliary, and summoning?"
Paul was immediately speechless, but a fierce light appeared in his eyes. But at this time, he saw Aldaris start to move to his left, and Ronnie simply disappeared from his sight.
And his allies, Bokan and D'Artagnan, also seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied. So, the muscles on Paul's face also twitched. He took a deep breath and began to chant a spell to summon a new Iron Demon statue. This was Fang Senyan's strength. As long as he wanted, he could force anyone to bow their heads in front of him!
Less than two minutes after Paul completed his summoning spell, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the distant sky. Immediately afterwards, a spaceship that was difficult to describe flew over at high speed. It looked like it was appearing by crashing through the firmament.
This spaceship looked like a beetle with a large belly, but it also had tail fins, thrusters, and other auxiliary settings. After the spaceship saw Fang Senyan and the others, it quickly approached in a seemingly slow but actually fast manner. Then, it just rushed straight at them in an extremely bold manner!
The dirt in front of the Iron-Blooded Star Clan's spaceship was simply split open like the sea, with turbulent waves. The spaceship rushed straight forward, with an arrogance and indifference, until it stopped ten meters away from Fang Senyan and the others.
Immediately afterwards, white gas spurted out of the hatch next to it, and then slowly opened. A line of Iron-Blooded Warriors filed out. Fang Senyan noticed that these guys' masks were larger, and there were marks on them corroded by the acidic blood of the Aliens. They wore weapons similar to Japanese samurai swords at their waists. This thing was unique equipment for elite Iron-Blooded soldiers. Then, an Iron-Blooded wearing a gray cloak walked down the gangway step by step.
Gray Back Veron!
His patience had almost been exhausted, so he came to personally witness the deaths of these guys, because this was the only way to show his respect for these people.
Or rather, he didn't respect these people,
But the wisdom and strength they showed in the process of escaping!
"Your performance has surprised us." Gray Back Veron's voice was transmitted to everyone's ears through the translator: "Therefore, before you die, you have the right to leave your names behind. Your skulls will be collected by our warriors and treasured among the spoils. Your names will be engraved on the nameplates below, and become a part of our honor."
