Chapter 1161: Facing Each Other

is wife and rushed to the hospital as well. His face was also grim, knowing that Feng Sisi had cheated and was even pregnant. If the other party used their son's condition as leverage to threaten Yong...Wu Tianxing was clearly taken aback by the news. He graduated two years earlier than He Lianyi, relying on his excellent grades and family support to become a detective team leader. But she had become a commander right after graduation, which was simply incomparable.

Ripple looked at the solidified expression on the other person's face, and the envy and jealousy in their eyes, she was certain that this person was still as annoying as ever.

"Captain Wu Tianxing, you said you brought back important news that can only be told to the commander. Can you tell me now"

The ripple emoji asked, expressionless.

I want to say it to your face.

Wu Tianxing insisted.

"Okay, but as you know, the return ship has inspection protocols. Because you brought important intel, I can only see you alone for now. You'll be able to move freely once your teammates have completed their quarantine."

The ripples brought the ugly words to the forefront.

“I understand, I will do as Commander He says.”

Wu Tianxing had no objection or doubt about this, after all, the first thing a returning deep-space vessel did was undergo quarantine checks to prevent the carrying back of unknown cosmic matter. This was regulation.

After the video call ended, Drew spoke with worry etched on his face:

"Headmaster He, while Wu Tianxing's request isn't unreasonable, it's overly cautious. And his insistence on meeting with you alone certainly suggests other reasons."

"I know, that's why I have to meet him. Only by meeting face-to-face can I know what he has up his sleeve."

Ripple gently stroked the head of Whirlwind, saying softly.

Then I'll make the arrangements.

"Captain Dell, no need to arrange anything special. I'll go to their quarantine zone."

"This is not in accordance with the regulations."

Drew vetoed.

“If Wu Tianxing brought back his consciousness, the first thing he would do after seeing me would be to have it invade my body and replace me. The value in me being replaced is that I am a commander, a figure of real power he can currently access.”

If he succeeds and I return to the command ship undetected, the consequences that follow will be far from what you expect.

Ripples always considers problems from the worst-case scenario.

De Ru listened to Lian Yi's words, and following Lian Yi's train of thought, his face immediately changed.

"If that were true, then you'd be in even more danger."

"Don't stop doing things just because they are dangerous. At the very least, we need to determine if this group has been invaded by consciousnesses before we can proceed with the next steps in our planning and deployment."

If they have already been replaced, then I can't go back to the command center even more. At least I need to keep these entities within a controllable range.

The ripples did not conceal their intentions.

"Would you like to try using your psychic power to find a consciousness entity"

Dru stared wide-eyed.

"Yes, before it was just theoretical. Now that we have experimental subjects, why not give it a try"

Ripples smiled and said.

"If you have such plans, I won't stop you, but I suggest communicating with Commander Thomas in advance, and notifying the military side as well. Your entire meeting is estimated to be monitored."

"Captain Drake is right, I need to coordinate with the military."

Ripple nodded, then connected with Thomas, telling him her plan. Thomas submitted it to the First Army Headquarters and told Ripple to await news.

The ripples received a positive reply the next day, and she entered the isolation chamber alone with the whirlwind.

Wu Tianxing, upon seeing the ripples, was apparently quite excited. He immediately saluted and greeted them respectfully, after all, he was only a lieutenant now.

"Hello, Colonel He. It's nice to meet you."

"Me too, Lieutenant Wu."

Ripple pursed her lips into a smile, gesturing for the other to take a seat. Then, she soothed the somewhat agitated whirlwind in her arms and directly asked:

"Lieutenant Wu, can you tell me the important information you've obtained now"

"Of course."

Wu Tianxing sat very straight, his expression also becoming serious.

Our three ships jumped through space and arrived at the rear of the Octervian warship, then we separated to scout.

My first reconnaissance vessel, after three days of travel, encountered a vast fleet of ships belonging to the Octovians. Fortunately, we had activated our cloaking device in advance and avoided detection.

This time, their fleet was quite diverse, mostly civilian spacecraft. Only a small number of warships and combat vessels followed, likely for escort purposes.

To figure out their destination, we followed them and then snuck onto an Ocotovian civilian spaceship.

Then I learned that they were ordinary people who had evacuated from the mother planet of Ocote. Their home planet was invaded, and they were unable to drive away the invaders. They could only activate a core detonation device after evacuating, destroying their entire home planet.

That's why they are so eager to invade the Federation, seize territory, or else they will become interstellar nomads, and this time these civilians will also be involved in the war of aggression against the Alliance.

Ripple nodded and continued,

"Regarding the invaders who occupied Octerius, have you found anything"

There is no concrete information yet, only that they are tall and dark, like black shadows. Every Oktevisian who has seen the invaders is dead.

Wu Tianxing said solemnly.

How did you escape

The ripples continued to ask.

“After obtaining useful intel, we quickly detached from the Oktovian forces and returned to the front lines at top speed via three consecutive spatial jumps, bringing back the latest information.”

"Thank you for your hard work. But, you can just tell your superiors about this news directly; there's no need to see the commander personally."

Ripples posed her own question.

Wu Tianxing's face remained unchanged, only growing heavier by two points, before he opened his mouth and said:

"What I've said so far are basic facts, along with some clues I've personally discovered, but..."

"What is it"

"It's just that I'm afraid no one will believe me."

"Then tell me, and I'll judge it."

I think those inhabitants of Oktevis are too excited, as if they were not fleeing for their lives but embarking on a new journey. Furthermore, the young Oktevsians seem distant from their families and resist their advances.

I think the intruder must have successfully infiltrated the Octarvian's evacuation force.

After Wu Tianxing finished speaking, he stared at Lianri, as if confirming whether the other party believed him.

"Well, the information you brought back is important and significant. At the very least, it confirms to the Federation that this group of escapees must be eradicated entirely and not allowed to enter the star systems controlled by the Federation."

Ripples said calmly.

Their entire meeting process was synchronized to the command center, army headquarters, and the Central Star's alien research department.

Look, after Headmaster He said that, the energy around her started to fluctuate, and the numbers are still increasing!t you for life!”Song Dachuan rarely spoke in such a long sentence."Well, as long as my parents don't mind me being an unmarried woman."Ripple smiled and wiped a tear from Zhang Huiniang's eye."You are...
