Interstellar: The Devil Is Down - Chapter 63

“Pei…” Charles the Great sighed, “Well, I respect your decision.”

“Even if my brother’s legs are a bit imperfect now, they are much better than those with sound hands and feet.” Pei Zijia smiled, “Your Majesty, don’t worry.”

After a meal, Charles the Great left to take care of government affairs, and specifically told Pei to take a good rest when he left.

“Brother, how about I push you to go shopping? You haven’t come back for a long time, and I don’t know how many impressions you still have in the palace.” Pei Zijia suggested, and Pei Yi did not refuse. He did not have many impressions, but about this place. There is no impression at all.

Not surprisingly, this will be the place where he will live in the future, so it’s good to get familiar with the environment.

Xiaolu followed them. From time to time, Pei Zijia would say something about him and Pei Yi when they were young, but Pei Yi has no memory at all.

“Don’t you need to go to school?” Pei Yi asked.

With his current status, it is impossible to return to the First Military Academy. Besides, if it weren’t for Xuan Xiao to receive an orthodox education, he would not like to go to school.

“This school year has passed,” Pei Zijia said. “A practical course took up an academic year. The courses of the First Military Academy are really…many people almost couldn’t come back.”

“What about the rest?”

“Brother, don’t worry, our classmates have returned safely this time. But they all know your identity. If you want to see them, just summon them directly.”

“Unfortunately, many active soldiers died there. The woman who was talking in the communicator captured Colonel Ian. She was too cunning, and all the clone fighters she brought were like lunatics. The reinforcements rushed out. She came or she ran away. If I meet her again next time, I don’t care if she is a woman or not, I will beat her to death!” Pei Zijia said angrily.

“You don’t even know what she looks like, how can you beat her?”

“Uh…” Pei Zijia was choked, “Anyway, according to the usual style of’Blood Raiders’, they should appear again, and I will recognize her by then!”

“I want to meet Qianqin and the others. They probably haven’t returned to the sixth star field yet?” Pei Yi confirmed the movement of Qianqin and the others to Pei Zijia, and then ordered, “Xiaolu, you can arrange it. The time is set for tomorrow morning. Right. By the way, call Sotu too.”

When Pei Yi entered the meeting room early the next morning, Qianqin, Benson, and Sotu saluted him at the same time.

“Sit down.” Pei Yi nodded.

However, Suo Tu suddenly knelt on one knee and said loudly: “Your Highness, you punish me! I shouldn’t let him join my team when I knew you all rejected Tang Jing! I saw it clearly at the time, that is Tang Jing was the first to attack Xuan Xiao!”

“What are you talking about?!” Pei leaned forward suddenly, squeezing the armrest of the wheelchair tightly, “Are you sure?”

“On the Green Star Zone A, Tang Jing trains with me every day, and I will not admit the mistake of his mecha.” Sotu said.

Pei Yi sat back slowly, his eyes flashing, and after a long time, he said, “Get up, it’s not your fault, it’s my negligence. So what about Tang Jing now?”

“He…is missing.”

Pei Yi stretched out his hand and pressed his forehead. When he heard Sotu’s words, his mind suddenly opened up.

Gently exhaling a sigh of breath, he said: “There is a reason why Green Star A area will be attacked by’blood attackers’. Their goal is to kill me. And Tang Jing and them are not in the same group, his The purpose is to……”

It was to catch Xuan Xiao.

Pei Yi didn’t say the latter sentence, Xuan Xiao’s identity was still sensitive, and he would not easily expose it.

“His Royal Highness?” Qian Qin couldn’t help but whispered.

Others also showed surprised expressions.

“I’m afraid that even the last time our starship to the Central Star Region was hijacked, the’Blood Raiders’ didn’t go to Qianqin.” Pei Yi said slowly, “From beginning to end, they were all for killing. Come for me.”

“Brother–” Pei Zijia’s face became serious, he grabbed Pei Yi’s wheelchair, “Let’s report this to your majesty! The’blood attackers’ are too rampant, and your majesty will never spare them!”

“But do you have evidence?” Pei Yi shook his head, “Everything is just my guess. This matter does not need to be reported, because the threat posed to the empire by the’blood attacker’ even if there is no such incident , My… father, will not let them go on either.”

“Unexpectedly, Al Molin is obviously dead…” Qian Qin squeezed his fist, and suddenly his expression changed, “Your Highness, are they trying to avenge Al Molin when they chase you down?!”

“No one can be sure.” Pei Yi said.

As soon as his voice fell, the holographic screen standing on one side suddenly lit up in the spacious meeting room.

“Good morning, everyone–” A woman appeared on it.

At the moment when she saw her face, Pei Yi and the others here all changed their complexions.

“Su Tong?!”

“And Colonel Ian!”

Colonel Ian was held by two big men’s back-shearing arms, and the woman with the same face as Su Tong casually held the gun against Colonel Ian’s temple.

“This is Colonel Ian next to me. How about making a deal? Your Majesty Charles.” Although she called “Your Majesty” in her mouth, she didn’t have the slightest respect in her tone.

At the same time, the six star regions of the Empire, whether it was a billboard hanging outside the mall or a home holographic TV, all played the same video.

“How about using ten starships with the largest size, the best configuration and the strongest force in the empire at this stage, in exchange for Colonel Ian’s life?” ‘Edge exchange. Two months should be enough to get there, right?”

“The’Blood Raiders’ look forward to this transaction. If we don’t see the starship by then, not only Colonel Ian will be killed, but what we will do is definitely not what you want to see…”

The video ended here, and the various screens returned to normal, but the people of the empire were all in panic.

Charles the Great had a sullen face. It was time for the ministers to attend the court meeting. The holographic images of the chief executives of several other star regions were also sitting in the middle of the chamber, including General Lancer of the sixth star region.

Obviously, the other party chose this time deliberately so that all of them, the empire dignitaries, were present at the same time to see that scene.

There was a brief silence indoors.

“Dios!” Charles the Great whispered into the empty air, “Why didn’t you intercept this video?!”

A group of light and shadow appeared abruptly in the center of the spacious assembly hall, and a faint human form could be seen. It was a star network agent that controlled hundreds of galaxies in the six star regions of the entire empire.

“Why intercept it?” The agent named Dios had a lazy voice, but with a certain kind of ethereal spirit, as if from the distant horizon, “She didn’t hurt me.”

“Charles, you know, my time is too boring, I am looking forward to something interesting.”

It has existed for too long, even Charles the Great grew up being watched by Dios.

“But you can’t take the safety of the empire as a joke!”

“Charles…I believe you will solve it.” Dios left this sentence, and the body composed of the light group suddenly collapsed and disappeared without a trace.

“Dios is getting more and more willful.” I don’t know who said.

“Yeah, I’m really worried that it will really turn against one day…”

“Okay!” Charles the Great interrupted them, “what’s the use of talking about Dios’s problem now? We must solve the immediate matter first!”

“I am afraid that the entire empire has received that video. We can’t wait for the people to fall into panic frenzy. The request of the’Blood Raider’ must be agreed.”

“But ten starships, they are too big to speak.”

“What about ten ships? Do you want to tell the people that the Empire is not willing to send ten starships to rescue Colonel Ian?” Charles said, “Countless soldiers shed blood and sweat on the battlefield. This is how the Empire responded to them?”

“Your Majesty, calm down, I didn’t mean that…”

The Chamber discussed this matter, and Pei Yi and the others are also talking about this matter.

“She is not Su Tong at all!” Pei Zijia said immediately after watching the video, “Obviously it was a disguise, we were deceived by her for so long!”

“Exchange hostages with the’Blood Raiders’, I will go.” Pei Yi said.

“Brother!” Pei Zi fake shouted, “No! You can’t go! You just woke up!”

Although the others didn’t speak, the expressions in their eyes when they looked at Pei Yi clearly expressed disapproval.

“His Royal Highness! Please, don’t go!” Xiaolu looked like he was about to cry again.

Pei frowned, “Don’t persuade me anymore.”

…

Xuan Xiao opened his eyes, and a dazzling light on his head made him almost blind.

He immediately closed his eyes and tried to move but found that his body was tied up.

Xuan Xiao forcefully tore off the metal that was binding him.

The harsh alarm sounded suddenly.

“Experiment No. 1 escaped! Subject No. 1 escaped!”

Xuan Xiao frowned at the sharp noise. When he stood up, he found that he was naked and not wearing any clothes.

After finally adapting to the strong light, he could see where he was. It was a huge enclosed metal space. The surrounding walls were flashing with electric lights. He could see everything outside through the transparent gap. There are many complicated instruments.

Here is a cage.

The alarm continued to sound, and a man in a white coat rushed here with a team of heavily armed soldiers.

The door made by the power grid in front was opened, and they shot Xuanxiao without saying a word.

However, before all the bullets could reach Xuan Xiao, they were frozen into ice in mid-air.

The ice spread rapidly along the opposite path of the bullet, as if it had frozen the air, until it finally turned all the soldiers into ice sculptures.

“Activate A-level alert! Start indiscriminate attack!” The man in the white coat ran back in horror, while commanding loudly with a trembling voice.

He didn’t run a few steps, the ice spread from his feet up, and the inertia of running made him fall to the ground, falling into a piece of broken ice.

At this time, the room Xuan Xiao stayed in suddenly sent countless electromagnetic waves from all directions.

At the same time, some kind of gas began to spill from the ceiling.

Xuan Xiao controlled those electromagnetic waves with strong mental power and kept them from getting close to him.

However, when the gas gradually filled this space, Xuan Xiao gradually couldn’t support it.

When his mental power was exhausted, another group of armed men rushed in and buckled him with metal. This time, he even wore a strangely shaped helmet on his head to prevent him from releasing his mental power. .
