Chapter 138: One Minute Gambling

  How to deceive people most effectively?

  Just mix the most deadly lie with a lot of truth.

  Blisk believed Bai You, based on his judgment of Bai You's behavior.

  If Bai You's purpose was the same as the rebels, to destroy the Holy Ark, then there was no need to go to great lengths to get in touch with him.

  He only needed to install the bomb and then pull the fuse.

  But Bai You didn't do that. This person went to great lengths to deal with Sloan, gain control of Tianlongxing, and then negotiate with him based on this.

  This can only mean three things:

  This person doesn't want to die.

  He is very powerful, strong enough to take the Holy Ark single-handedly.

  He has a bit of brains and is not easy to fool.

  "This kind of person is very suitable to join us." Blisk decided to send Bai You an invitation letter after he reunited with Tianlongxing and ensured the safety of the Holy Ark.

  "But the current situation doesn't seem optimistic, and I should leave too."

  Blisk was originally waiting for the Energy Holy Ark to be transported to the location of the time-space folding weapon, but according to the current situation, it seems that he can no longer rest easy.

  "Hey, you IMC idiots, go down and pack your equipment and prepare to board the plane. We are going to pick up the Holy Ark."

  Blisk ordered the IMC officers beside him, asking them to prepare immediately and set off as quickly as possible.

  The officers on the side were full of anger, but they were told by their superiors that everything should be under Blisk's command. They could only dare not say anything and just do it obediently.

  About 10 minutes later, Blisk boarded the spacecraft and prepared to pick up Draco.

  ...

  After Blisk ordered to stop the Militia at all costs, few Militia fighters and missiles could hit Draco.

  An IMC spacecraft named Malta was equipped with a large number of artillery devices. Now it was fully fired, making it difficult for the Militia to advance for a while.

  "Everyone, the Holy Ark is right in front of us. For the hope of survival, we must break through the IMC blockade at all costs!"

  Seeing the enemy's fierce resistance, Commander Sarah was no less capable.

  Originally, she had the idea of ​​dying with the Holy Ark, and had no intention of returning alive. Now, she was leading the charge, driving a Titan to the front line.

  "Cover me, get rid of the Malta first, otherwise we can't get close to Draco!"

  "Commander Sarah, this is Blackbird, I can take you to the Malta."

  "Very good, Buck, cover us, we must get rid of the enemy as quickly as possible, no one knows if they have reinforcements!"

  Blackbird and Buck are both fighter pilots, both of them are highly skilled, and are the elite of the Rebel Predator Corps.

  However, the IMC side is not a pushover either. They have a tight defense, and Sarah and her team went through a lot of trouble to get close to the Malta.

  Bai You was in the cabin of Draco, watching the battle outside through the display screen. The two sides fought fiercely, but it was obvious that the Rebels were better.

  Compared with the IMC soldiers, most of the Rebels have a stronger will and determination to protect their homes.

  Therefore, the defeat of the IMC is foreseeable.

  "Go as fast as possible." Bai You instructed the captain, then sat down on the floor, leaning against the wall and closing his eyes to rest.

  Bai You had no choice but to recover his spirits first since he couldn't win in terms of physical strength. But it was foreseeable that it would be impossible for the rebels to raid Tianlongxing in a short period of time.

  Bai You estimated that the IMC could still hold out for about ten minutes.

  By then, the initial stage of the Sealed Box containing the Holy Ark would be over. Bai You only needed to store the Sealed Box in the storage space, then jump out of the plane and run away.

  Of course, there was a parachute this time.   

  The captain of the Tianlongxing was sweating profusely, and even his back was soaked.

  His task was very difficult. He had to try his best to dodge the stray bullets flying from behind, and at the same time, he had to maintain the rapid progress of the Tianlongxing.

  At the current speed, it was simply a fantasy to want to escape from the pursuers behind.

  However, Brisk and his men were on their way. As long as they could hold on until then, everything would be settled.

  The captain glanced at Bai You. This soldier who betrayed the rebels actually lay down to rest like this, and he didn't seem to care about the next situation at all.

  I don't know if he was just a simple nerve, or he was conceited that he could handle all the situations that followed.

  With five minutes left before the initial containment, Bai You stood up.

  His eyes regained some brilliance, and his lack of energy was slightly relieved.

  "What's the situation now?"

  "Not very good, the Malta is about to be destroyed by the rebels, and they will catch up soon!"

  "Is that so, I know."

  It seems that the rebels' momentum is very fierce, and they broke through the Malta faster than he expected.

  Bai You walked out of the cockpit of the Tianlongxing and came to the tail of the Tianlongxing, near the exit.

  The containment process of the Sealed Box was very slow. Logically, it was impossible for the Samsara Paradise to not have the means to instantly contain the Holy Ark.

  However, that means should not be allowed by the Void Tree, so in the end, this task still depends on Bai You himself.

  "Commander Sarah, this is Bai You, can you hear me?"

  Bai You called twice, and it took almost ten seconds before he got a response from Commander Sarah.

  "Bai You, how is your side, why haven't you destroyed the Holy Ark yet?"

  "I underestimated the technical means of the IMC. I tried blasting, chainsaws, and chemicals, but all ended in failure. I can't destroy this shell."

  "It doesn't matter, I will locate your position. If only one fighter can break through, we can quickly reach the attack position, and then we will directly use missiles to blow up the Holy Ark!"

  Sarah had just come down from the Malta and was driving a Titan standing on the fighter deck of the rebels.

  After the fall of the Malta, the resistance of the IMC weakened suddenly, and now there is finally a chance to implement the plan to blow up the Draco.

  However, it is impossible to let all the fighters catch up with the Draco. At most, only one fighter can break through the enemy blockade.

  "Commander Sarah, the Draco has flown far away. How long will it take for you to catch up?"

  "With the performance of the fighter, we can reach the designated location in three minutes at most! If you can control the pilot of the Draco, it can be even faster!"

  Bai You glanced at the seal countdown, and there were four minutes left before the end of the initial stage.

  What he had to do was to delay this minute.

  "I understand. All my explosives were used to break through the outer shell of the Holy Ark, and there is no way to open the door of the cab.

  I will transport the Holy Ark to the tail of the Draco, and you can aim at there and bomb directly!"

  "Got it, keep the communication open, and we will contact each other before the bombing."

  Bai You clenched his fist. Since only one fighter can catch up, it means that the rebels cannot bomb the entire Draco.

  Then, there is room for operation.
