What Lehman was thinking at this moment was not important to Brandon Naidingle. Brandon only knew that if the engine could not be activated, they would be eaten by hundreds of bugs in a short while, so Brandon's first reaction was to run wildly towards the cabin where the engine mechanism was located.

Before rushing out, Brandon did not forget to shout at the unlucky reporter Nie Zheng, who was sitting in the co-pilot:

"Don't go anywhere. Once I fix it, I will teach you how to start the engine remotely. OK?!"

After saying that, he left in the dust.

Nie Zheng sat there a little confused. It is logical that he would not be useful to keep up with such things, but I don’t know if it was because he was a journalist who had been paying attention to clues all year round. Nie Zheng vaguely felt that this was a bit inappropriate because he knew a principle [there are not so many accidents in the world]--vaguely, Nie Zheng felt that the engine failed at this time, and it was a little wrong.

This vague premonition made him want to go over and help Brandon as a backup plan, but after thinking about it, Nie Zheng still decided not to move. On the one hand, he was not a combatant or a technician. Think rationally, the most effective place might be to sit here and start the engine as soon as the engine is repaired. After all, it takes time to wait for the pilot to come over, and maybe that little time really becomes the key?

Thinking of this, Nie Zheng sat back, sat on the passenger seat, and watched Brandon's actions through the monitor inside the ship.

It was not only Nie Zheng who was paying attention to Brandon's operations. All the rescuers and Kerrigan's hearts were sank when they heard the engine failure--the ship could not fly, they all had to die here.

Dean Murmansk's heart was as cool as the bottom of the ice lake. He knew that all this was Minsk's arrangement, and that it was to use the Zerg to eliminate all the evidence here, and there was no residue left. He listened to Brandon's report from the communication circuit that he was rushing to the engine room for repair, and his heart skipped a beat. He knew that the driver would probably not succeed, because Minsk must have ambushed the backhand.

Dean, who had already decided that Brandon would not succeed in his heart, did not despair, but began to save himself - his logic of self-rescue was very simple, that was, to find out what attracted the insects, and then throw the thing away the farther away, the better. After all, after the final battle of Tasanis, the federal government had devices that attracted Zergs, which was already tacitly informed in the army, so Dean's first reaction was to find out the damn device.

Dean's idea was also right, because Carrigan's first reaction after feeling the psychic wave that made her uncomfortable was that the ship was equipped with the beacon that attracted insects, but Carrigan did not intend to directly tell the CRT team around him immediately--the reason was very simple, she knew that the person who wanted to harm her must be among them.

When she thought of someone trying to harm her, Kerrigan's eyes immediately became cold. She quickly looked at the members of the CRT team around her who seemed very anxious--she could quickly kill all these people and kill the traitor hidden in it. Perhaps it would be right to think of a way out after doing this; or could she lure him into showing up?

Carrigan's brain was spinning rapidly, but the fierce and cold eyes she showed at that moment were suddenly captured by Dean.

If it was someone else, a look would be let go, but Dean was an old agent. Carrigan's look instantly attracted Dean's attention. He had seen that look before - that was when he was still an agent. He captured a Keha radical who placed a bomb in the cathedral of a planet in the Federation. The guy placed the bomb in the church and shattered the church and eighty people together.

Dean remembered that guy's eyes were cold, firm, and filled with terrifying hostility.

Seeing this look, Dean knew that the Ghost Queen had murderous intent. If he could no longer find a way to communicate with the Ghost Queen, he would probably have to die at the hands of the Ghost Queen first with other unknown guys here.

However, Dean, the two-faced agent who wants to join forces with Carrigan, dare not and cannot directly find Carrigan to express his feelings. If he dares to say directly to Carrigan here, he will die in an instant. Moreover, with Mind-Shield, Carrigan cannot read his soul.

Just at Dean's critical moment, the moment before Carrigan had decided to take action, Brandon's voice suddenly came from everyone's communication channel:

"I have arrived at the engine room and are under emergency repair. Hell, a key pressure valve is broken!"

Hearing Brandon's voice, Carrigan's murderous intent stopped for a moment, and all other members of the CRT also cheered, and Dean's spirit suddenly relaxed. During this relaxation, Dean finally discovered something he had been overlooking when he was overly nervous just now--one person was missing!

The CRT team has a total of 16 people, so why can we only see 14 people now?!

Thinking of this, a thought flashed across Dean's head like lightning, and this lightning-like thought instantly turned into words and spurted out from his mouth:

“Where has Jester gone?!”

"Well, Jester volunteered to repair the engine as soon as he heard that the engine was broken. After all, he had experience." A CRT member replied.

As soon as these words were said, Dean's thoughts were verified. He suddenly turned around and nodded in a very concealed manner to Carrigan without any trace. Then he twisted his neck in the direction of the spacecraft engine, as if he was moving his stiff muscles.

When Kerrigan heard that someone was missing and the person was in the engine room, he immediately figured out who the insider was. It was also at this time that she saw the captain of the CRT nodding at her quite concealedly--at that moment, Kerrigan seemed to understand something and ran towards the spaceship.

"Where is she going?!" Someone saw Carrigan running towards the spaceship and cursed strangely.

"If you have time to worry about that, why don't you come here and help arrange temporary defense or find a way to restore communications. If the spacecraft cannot fly or rescue cannot come, we will all die here!" Dean yelled directly.

After pretending to roar, Dean looked at the direction of the spacecraft and prayed that everything would go smoothly. At this time, Brandon's intermittent cursing while repairing the engine in the communication channel suddenly stopped abruptly!

"Hey, please answer, please answer?!" Some members of the CRT team called several times, but found that no one answered.

Dean's heart suddenly tensed up again, and he knew that inside had taken action.

When this communication interference occurred, Brandon was desperately repairing the engine inside the engine room, or to be precise, repairing the entire ship's power supply system - the ship still relies on the principle of chemical propulsion and get rid of gravity. The engine needs a nuclear reactor to provide huge amount of electricity.

As an old pilot, Brandon has memorized the details of various key locations on the ship. The reason why the spacecraft cannot be activated is the damage of a small valve with a diameter of only a few centimeters. This is a butterfly-shaped valve that is specifically responsible for coordinating the power transmission strength of the reactor to the main engine. In order to achieve this goal, this valve made of titanium alloy must withstand high-speed rotation and strong electromagnetic fields.

So this kind of valve consumes very quickly, which also caused Brandon not to think too much at the beginning. He thought about why the new valve inspected before departure was damaged so quickly, but he only blamed the black-hearted contractor. When he completely removed the butterfly valve and was about to replace another new spare valve, he finally found something wrong.

On the valve, there are traces of human damage!

A cold thought suddenly surged in Brandon's mind. Just as he was trying to turn that idea into the next course of action, the sound of an electromagnetic rifle loading suddenly came in his ear. Brandon looked back and found that a CRT team member wearing power armor was aiming at him, and a cold sound came in his ear:

"I can't let you do this."

At that moment, Brandon fell into despair. He only had a pistol and a signal gun on him. He was not wearing power armor but a three-defense work uniform. He had no chance of winning at all. He hoped that the guy could start talking nonsense like he did in the movie, and talked to him about why he did this and was finally killed by the hero who rushed over.

But the other party obviously had no plans. Seeing that the other party's finger had already leaned against the trigger, Brandon planned to close his eyes and wait for death.

However, just before he accepted his fate, Nie Zheng, who was on standby in the cockpit, took action. When the assassin hidden in the CRT walked over with a gun, he had already started thinking about countermeasures. When the assassin decided to take action, the reporter had pressed a button according to the instructions written on the button.

The next moment, a large amount of fire extinguishing agent sprayed out from the ordinary atmospheric environment fire extinguishing device in the engine compartment. The mist formed by white powder instantly filled the entire room. The assassin installed in Minsk in the CRT lost Brandon's position in a very short moment, and Brandon launched a counterattack.

For the driver who carried the entire engine room structure down, it was not important whether his eyes could see it or not. He could even remove the engine with his eyes closed. With the help of this dust and smoke, Brandon rolled on the spot and rolled over from under a row of pipes. When the assassin activated the thermal imaging and aimed again, Brandon had already stood up from another pipe gap that could not be directly aimed, and raised the small pistol to aim.

A small pistol could not cause damage to himself--the assassin instantly assessed the situation, stepped to the right, ready to aim at Brandon again, but after he stepped, Brandon fired.

With a few crisp gunshots, several large holes were punched into a pipe above the assassin's head. When the assassin looked up, he only found liquid nitrogen in the cooling pipe gurgling down.

After a while, when Kerrigan arrived, the assassin had become a corpse.

"The problem was solved?" Kerrigan asked.

"No, no, the destroyer is dead, but our coolant is gone, and without coolant, the engine will burn soon."

"So we're still stuck here?"

"No, no," Brandon shook his head. "There are coolant in the Marines' armor. If we can sacrifice some power armor, I'm sure to let the ship fly, but that takes time and also power armor that can help us resist insects."

For a moment, the engine room and the restored communication channel fell into a brief silence.
