The current atmosphere in Kerna City is not quite right. Eru is sure of this.
Although he didn't know what was wrong, he still had this feeling, and it became more and more obvious. He always felt that the solid space fortress he was in seemed to have turned into a steamer that was being burned by a slow fire.
It's getting hotter, heavier, and more depressing, so depressing that I can't even breathe.
As an experienced psyker, he certainly knows that such intuition is by no means groundless and must be taken seriously, otherwise it will be too late to wait until the truth is cooked. Of course, as a person with very wide connections,
"Lawyer" also had the ability to execute and the channels to collect information, so he quickly took action.
Eru just grabbed a passing empire...well, the security officer of Kelna Fortress, chatted and laughed for a while, and the other party answered him in detail.
The Minlan man immediately stopped laughing. He abandoned the imperial officer who was still confused and walked quickly through the crowded streets. He soon found his seat on the corner of the intersection in the business district.
Flores Wanda observes the world.
This guy's condition is exactly the same as before, even his sitting posture has not changed, except that the ice cube in his hand has been replaced by iced sour plum juice.
Airu is from Minlan and has a keen sense of smell. The most unbearable thing is the sour smell. At that moment, she used her racial talent to seal her nasal cavity with a sullen face. Then she said in a deep voice: There is something I have to tell you. You must not do it.
Afraid."
Wanda looked at the other party calmly: "Fellow Daoist Airu, can't you see that I am calm and let nature take its course now, so of course I won't be afraid."
“…The people from Earth are really coming. Their fleet has already jumped into this galaxy.”
Wanda said "Oh", and her expression finally changed: "You guys in the community army are really brave and decisive. But what do you do to blow a pool of spring water?"
The last sentence seemed a bit awkward when translated into the common language of the alliance they were using. It took Airu nearly half a minute to react, and she almost lost her breath and sneered: "Didn't you say before that you didn't leak the star map?
So what's the explanation now? The star map coordinates of Kerna City are so secret. If the people on earth had known about it from other channels, they would have taken some action. There is no reason for people to suddenly come to the door at this time. After thinking about it,
, there is no other reason except that your house was confiscated and you were exposed!"
"... Fellow Daoist Airu, I have clearly explained it before. I really don't know much about the star map of the Far Coast Nebula, let alone the route to get here. Those who say they know me say that I am worried. I don't know.
What do I want from me... If my fellow Taoist insists on thinking this way, I really have nothing to say and can only accept it. Alas! Dependence, origination, and cessation are all natural!"
"Don't say this to me, but to the big bosses of the organization. You'd better think about your lines now. They are not as easy to talk to as me, and they won't be so patient to listen to your nonsense.
."
"You are wrong. Now that I think about it carefully, my predecessors are all magnanimous and open-minded people, and they will definitely understand my state of mind."
Seeing that the other party was completely enlightened, to put it bluntly, a dead pig is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. Airu couldn't even get angry this time, so she couldn't help but drag the other party up, and by the way kicked the can of iced plum juice away.
Garbage dump everywhere.
“Anyway, let’s go!”
Wanda looked at her plum soup with regret and shook her head: "Where are we going? If you are worried about the Community fleet, there is no need to worry about it. They can't break in, probably..."
At the end of the sentence, his tone suddenly became less natural.
Judging from common sense, it is of course impossible for the Earthling fleet to break into the city of Kerna. However, during this period, the former leader has been slapped in the face too many times by things that are beyond common sense, so naturally he dare not say it all.
"We can't take risks. The high-tech on the ship must not fall into the hands of the people on earth, let alone the hands of the empire. I have to go to the shipyard... If things change, we will grab the energy package and set off immediately!" Airu
road.
Wanda didn't object this time. Although she had a calm face, she still kept up with her steps decisively. However, when he had just walked a few steps away, he suddenly stopped again and was at a loss.
After a moment, he showed a thoughtful expression.
“What’s wrong?” Airu was really a little anxious. For the first time, he began to seriously consider the feasibility of killing this guy on the spot and escaping by himself.
“Nokelsa Envisabalt.” Wanda whispered.
"Clam?"
"Didn't I tell you before? That little friend Yu Lian heard this from me. It is said to be the voice of the giant Selami. I don't know why, but I seemed to hear this voice again just now...
Well, it is calm, dignified, majestic, and grand, just like the sonorous sound that breaks through the sky in the universe, and seems to contain the supreme truth of the laws of the universe. This is the guidance given to me by the spirit of the universe!" He let out a sigh of satisfaction.
.
Ai Ru thought to herself that I didn’t hear any sound that pierced the sky, let alone felt the truth of the laws of the universe, then she heard a “boom” that particularly shocked my hearing!
Wait! Boom?
At this moment, the two people's hearing was clearly dominated by the huge explosion coming from the direction of the dock. Immediately afterwards, the violent vibration of the metal floor was directly felt on the legs of the two people.
Eru and Wanda looked at each other, speechless for a moment, and then became extremely shocked.
At this time, the pirates who also heard the explosion were stunned for a moment, and then they exploded on the spot as if they were thrown into a swarm of rats from a firecracker.
"Warning! Warning! Warning! There is hull damage in areas B3, D8, and D9. Start emergency rescue procedures immediately. Warning! Warning! Warning! There is a commotion in the square area. Everyone please keep quiet, do not move around, and wait for rescue. No
Move around and wait for rescue." The sound of machinery resounded under the metal dome.
Several suspended security robots appeared from the narrow passage and flew over the heads of the crowd. They were very fast and flew low, causing everyone to howl.
The robot is performing preliminary suppression tasks according to the initial program. However, this is not a smart reaction.
You know, this group of outlaws on the street all have guns in their hands, and their mental structures are not stable. In the past, they still maintained a minimum level of security because this was a rare "safe zone" in the Far Shore Nebula.
Restraint, but once you understand that this safe zone is no longer safe, the chaos that sweeps through the entire space city will be unavoidable.
“We must go back to the ship!” Eru shouted.
Wanda nodded with a heavy face, finally no longer calm and relaxed.
At this moment, at the scene of the explosion, General Tadan and Marquis Odegaard looked at the burning pirate ship and could no longer remain calm.
Just now, the Dark Abomination, which had been renovated in the shipyard of this space city, suddenly turned into the source of a fatal explosion. Those hard hulls were like fragile paper shells, being ripped out from nowhere.
The force that emerged impacted from the inside out, and then began to expand, deform, and finally opened countless huge gaps.
Boiling flames, accompanied by deadly shock waves, slanted out from the shocking crack.
In just an instant, hundreds of elite stormtroopers were swallowed up on the spot by endless explosions. The burning hull fragments splashed around and hit the equipment, fell into the panicked crowd, and even knocked open the fragile cabin.
wall.
Fatal high temperatures accompanied by casualties brewed into panic and chaos at the No. 1 Dockyard.
The general and the Marquis almost lost the ability to think for a while. When they finally recovered from the previous shock, the scene had turned into a Shura field full of flames, explosions and corpses.
Fortunately, the two present have not completely lost their ability to command and make decisions.
Marquis Odegaard took advantage of his being a psyker and rushed to the scene first without even saying hello.
The old general became calmer and quickly connected to the on-site communication: "What happened? What is the current situation? Report it immediately! Colonel Sarris, Lieutenant Colonel Carter-El, who of you is still alive? Report the situation immediately!"
A long half minute passed, but there was still no answer. Lieutenant General Tadan put down the communicator, put on the air-tight protective suit sent by the soldiers, and quickly came to the scene.
At this time, Marquis Odegaard had completed the preliminary survey of the site.
"There is a proton torpedo hidden in the belly of the ship, and a considerable amount of explosive dust was poured into the warhead, so..." The Marquis said this, and there was another explosion behind him, and then only a "crash" was heard.
, but an oversized mechanical crane fell from the ceiling and crashed into a nearby berth. On the spot, it crushed an innocent pirate ship and was knocked unconscious.
It was smashed a lot lower.
“…The explosion dust is still flying, it’s too dangerous here.” Marquis Odegaard said, and then he couldn’t help but pick up the Angman Lieutenant General, turned around and walked towards the exit.
The lieutenant general made no resistance. He looked at the pirate ship that was still exploding, and his burnt-yellow hair seemed to be a little more haggard.
“...I was fooled!” He said to Marquis Odegaard with a wry smile.
"Have the people on earth seen through your plan?" After all, the Marquis had just arrived and knew that Lieutenant General Tadan had arranged some means, but his understanding was not too detailed.
“I just know that Moda took his men to face the Earthling fleet head-on. I knew that guy had little chance of winning, so I arranged for Lieutenant Aston Beel to save a hand.”
"Second Lieutenant Beel's father is an Imperial citizen, and he himself is also the informant I arranged in the Moda pirate group. I told him that if Moda's war situation is unfavorable, he can do things cheaply. Then he executed Moda and told the Earth
People are pretending to surrender. I guess that if the community wants to attack our city of Kerna, they can only use the method of sneaking in secretly and cooperating inside and outside, so that they can pull off the trick."
“So, you deliberately let Beel’s ship enter the harbor?”
"Yes, if they want to cooperate inside and outside, the Earthlings will definitely appoint the most elite assault force, led by the best psychics. At that time, I can kill them all without any effort... If the Earthling fleet loses
Without the psykers and elite assault troops, morale will inevitably collapse, and we can only retreat. If that doesn't work, I can also use the lives of those people to gain bargaining chips with the people on Earth." At this point, Beel sighed.
His mission is to build the fortress safely without causing any complications, and he is unwilling to start a full-scale war with the Earthling fleet.
This is probably why he arranged this little trick.
"That's right. Even if Lieutenant Beel is discovered, there will be no loss. We can indeed give it a try." Marquis Odegaard nodded.
Of course, whether the people on earth were deceived or found out, Beel would definitely not survive. However, he was already on the verge of death for Lieutenant General Tadan, so it would not be a pity for the tool man to die. At least, those present
Both big men took this for granted.
"However, they still saw through my plan, and they used it... But this is unreasonable! Wouldn't the Earth commandos and psykers on the ship not be able to survive an explosion of that scale? They are indeed on the ship,
That's indeed what Lieutenant Belial said in the signal he gave us." Lieutenant General Tadan was puzzled.
Marquis Odegar couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's hard for me to understand. However, it's impossible for people on earth to be crazy enough to use elite commandos and psykers as cannon fodder. Now we can only think that they use some means that we can't imagine.
The ship is here. Uh...then the question is, General, where are they now?"
The corners of the Angmang general's mouth twitched. Just as he was about to say something, he heard another explosion.
But this time, the direction of the explosion was far away, not at the port, but deep inside the city.
Those Earthlings began to destroy the city? As soon as this thought flashed through their minds, they received information from their subordinates.
“Your Excellency! The pirates in the city are rioting!”
