Surprise!

Just a few minutes ago, the status of the Steel Bone was still "88%"!

　　In a short period of time, the status dropped significantly.

　　This is not something that can be acted out. Some kind of accident did happen on the Cyborg.

　　At the same time, at the stern of the Cyborg, the engine compartment was dazzling red!

　　This shows that the change of the Cyborg was caused by serious damage to the engine.

　　But the Cyborg did not sink directly, but began to gradually improve.

　　This is the Cyborg consuming the source point and carrying out emergency repairs.

　　Through the source point, the situation is temporarily controlled, at least to ensure that it does not continue to deteriorate, and then the damage control operation will be used to take over. This is a common practice of the Fire warship on the battlefield. The source point is not only a necessity for the reinforcement of the Fire warship, but also an important resource for saving lives.

　　Chen Shayi's reaction was a little slower than Wang Dong.

　　After a little weighing, Chen Shayi said: "No matter what happened to the Cyborg, whether it is a real problem or a fake problem. Our goal remains unchanged, and it is still the wormhole."

　　Wang Dong knew the true situation of the Steel Bone, but at this time, he couldn't speak.

　　Chen Shayi's words are undoubtedly correct. The life and death of the Cyborg has nothing to do with them. As long as they can return to the Baron's territory smoothly, it will be a victory for them.

　　In fact, the Skylark can continue to move forward and keep a sufficient distance, allowing the assault fleet to beat the fallen dog. The Cyborg will be difficult to recover in a short time. The remaining eight assault ships of the Cybone Star Pirates will definitely not be the opponent of the escort fleet.

　　This is a good opportunity to annihilate the Cybone Star Pirates in one fell swoop.

　　But again, whether the Cybone Star Pirates are eliminated is irrelevant to the Black Stone Baron's territory.

　　It is not worth wasting time.

　　What if the opponent's follow-up reinforcements arrive again?

　　So Chen Shayi did not make this choice, and Wang Dong could understand it.

　　Although it is a pity to miss this opportunity.

　　At this time, several lifeboats were launched from the Cyborg one after another.

　　From one of the lifeboats, a clear code communication was sent to the Skylark.

　　"This is Ma Da, Wang Dong's friend. I just blew up the engine of the Cyborg. Afterwards, I pretended to be panicked and escaped in a lifeboat. But Cyborg will soon find out the truth. Please rescue me as soon as possible!"

　　After receiving this communication, the communicator did not hesitate to forward it to Chen Shayi and Wang Dong.

　　"Ma Da?"

　　Wang Dong was slightly stunned, and immediately reacted.

　　This is Sima Zhongda's alias!

　　It seems that after Sima Zhongda left the mining planet, he tried to join the Cybone Star Pirates.

　　Indeed, Sima Zhongda is also from the Plantagenet Federation, and is a fellow villager of the Cybone Star Pirates. Some of the channels are also normal.

　　If it was Sima Zhongda, then Wang Dong was not surprised at all when he said that he was the one who damaged the engine of the Cyborg.

　　As for the motive, it only takes a little thought to understand that this was to save Wang Dong's life.

　　With Sima Zhongda's usual caution, if it was not a sudden impulse, he would not be so embarrassed that he needed to ask for help immediately.

　　Wang Dong speculated that Sima Zhongda took temporary action to destroy the engine of the Cyborg after discovering that the Cyborg's target was Wang Dong and that he was likely to succeed.

　　Because of the haste of the incident, he left behind many clues and his identity would soon be exposed. He had to temporarily delay in the form of a lifeboat.

Wang Dong was somewhat surprised that Sima Zhongda was willing to risk his life to do this.

According to his impression in the previous life, Sima Zhongda was a man of meticulous thinking, calm and rational, and he did not seem like someone who would do such a selfless thing.

　　But no matter what, since Sima Zhongda had done it, Wang Dong would not stand idly by.

　　This was a favor.

　　It was not a life-saving favor, because Wang Dong had a backup plan.

　　But it could actually prevent the exposure of the Pond and the Mirage system, and Wang Dong had to acknowledge this favor.

　　"Ma Da is my friend, a life-long friendship! Sir Knight Shayi, please support me and order a full rescue!"

　　Wang Dong bowed slightly to Chen Shayi and asked solemnly.

　　Chen Shayi was the commander of this fleet, and Wang Dong could not make any decision without him.

　　Of course, the Pond had already silently moved closer to the lifeboat where Sima Zhongda was.

　　If Chen Shayi refused, Wang Dong would choose to save Sima Zhongda at the risk of exposing the Pond.

　　The disappearance of a lifeboat was not a level of abnormality compared to the sudden appearance of a bunch of space mines.

　　Even if he would be exposed, there were some things Wang Dong still had to do.

　　Regardless of other things, the bottom line principle could not be absent.

　　No matter how low it was.

　　"Sir Wang Dong, do you understand that this could be a trap?

　　Even if it is not a trap, the Cybone Star Pirates are not easy to chew. If we delay too long, there may be subsequent troubles."

　　Chen Shayi did not refuse immediately, but frowned and said in a deep voice.

　　Wang Dong nodded heavily and said solemnly: "First of all, according to the original trend, the Cyborg is fully capable of catching up with us, so there is no need to set such a trap. It is highly likely that some kind of accident had occur on the ship.

Secondly, Ma Da is my close friend, and few people know about this. The probability of the other party setting a trap is very low.

Third, considering the situation before and after, I believe that the accident on the Cyborg was caused by Ma Da. This is equivalent to Ma Da's life-saving grace to me, and I have to repay him. It is impossible for me to abandon Ma Da and leave alone!

Fourth, since the Cybone Star Pirates have accepted the commission, given Cyborg's habits, even if this time it fails, there will still be a next time. This is a hidden danger. If we can use this accident to wipe out the Cybone Star Pirates in one fell swoop, it will also be a good thing.

Finally, the mastermind behind this attack has successively invited the White Fang Star Pirates and the Cybone Star Pirates in a short period of time. I don't think they have the ability to continue recruiting helpers. As long as the reconnaissance ship expands the alert range, even if it delays some time, it doesn't matter."

　　Chen Shayi pondered for a while again, and saw that Wang Dong's face showed a little anxiety.

　　He nodded and said, "You are right. It is the Baron's consistent style to repay a favor. If it was indeed Ma Da that caused the accident on the Cyborg, causing the pursuit to fail. Then we did not rescue him, which will be ungrateful. Because of the fear of a trap with a small probability, this kind of ungrateful thing is not what a qualified heir should do. Sir Wang Dong, I am very pleased that you made the right choice."

　　Patting Wang Dong's shoulder gently, Chen Shayi laughed and said, "This ship turns and targets the Cyborg. Assault fleet, fire salvos, target the assault ships of the Cybone Star Pirates!

　　Brothers, let us crush the Cybone Star Pirates and spread the reputation of the Black Stone Baron again!"

　　Cheers rang out in the communication channel.

　　The next moment, the Skylark drew a beautiful curve, and without losing speed, it changed its course with the minimum radius and rushed directly to the Cyborg, which had lost power. The twenty assault ships in the escort fleet adjusted their course at the same time, targeting the eight assault ships of the Cybone Pirates!
