Chapter 57 Chapter 57 You want to kidnap this Great Crown Clan...

Amos assured that the spiritual swords he condensed with his spiritual power were still very powerful before Xiao Chuzao came into being.

later--

Amos was thinking about the spiritual swords that he had put away but had not completely integrated into the spiritual power of his crown - some of the hilts had been gnawed a few times, some had the tips gnawed off by the curious cubs, some had a few small tooth marks on the swords, and even the small tooth mark on the crown on his head had not disappeared.

At this moment, seeing little Chuzao, he had to use both hands to get out of the bed, so he held his spiritual sword in his mouth and ran over. He was obviously not awake yet, the small halo above his head was shining and shaking. He raised his two little hands, stood on tiptoe, and circled around the candy in Amos's hand.

Amos was used to it and his scalp no longer tingled. He just numbly withdrew his spiritual sword and gave him the cub's share for today.

“You can’t eat sweets before meals.”

Moreover, Amos felt that some training should be put on hold for the time being. The anti-fraud theory that Teacher Hull had previously instilled in the cubs seemed to have average effects.

Amos lowered his head and looked at the bright-eyed baby bird flapping its wings behind him, like a cheerful little white bird - did it seem a little too gullible?

Amos considered.

"Uh-huh."

Little Chuzao took the candy that Amos handed to him, yawned drowsily, and stuffed the candy into his pocket.

There was still a red mark on the cub's fair face from a nap he had just accidentally taken - it was a small star, a decoration on the cub's collar.

Because it was a secret trip, all elements related to Saint Cass were temporarily hidden, so the little guy wore very casual clothes.

The warm yellow sweatshirt has a hood on the back, and the inside is orange fluffy. Two star-decorated hat strings hang in front of the cub, which looks soft and makes the cub's face look a bit fluffy.

Amos rarely wore anything other than a military uniform. He wore a white lining and a long black windbreaker on the outside. Only the collar and cuffs were embellished with valuable gemstones. The black half-palm gloves diluted the sharpness of Amos's previous military uniform and highlighted his casual temperament.

Xiao Chuzao reached out and grabbed Amos' windbreaker.

He yawned sleepily again and looked out the window.

It was daybreak, and the just-turned-white skyline was not enough to illuminate the surroundings, so a small warm light was turned on at the head of the bed.

At this time in the past, Xiao Chuzao was actually still sleeping.

Although there is no ice or snow outside, the temperature is still very low. The warm bed is very tempting to people. It is no exaggeration to say that little Chuzao wants to grow in the bed!

Amos bent down and picked up little Chuzao.

"Let's go, we're ready to go."

In another room, not long ago, when the sky was still dark, Fei Man, who was lying quietly on the bed and sleeping soundly, suddenly opened her eyes and sat up. Her breathing was a little rapid. She stretched out her hand and slowly supported her forehead. She subconsciously glanced at the surrounding environment.

Then he slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.

Nightmare...

Another nightmare.

For Fei Man, the nightmare of the army's destruction and the disappearance of her loved ones has lasted for hundreds of years until today because of her recklessness when she was young.

Fei Man got up and put on her clothes. She bit the hairband, tied her black hair neatly, and looked up at the person in the mirror.

The Crown Clan women with high ponytails have cold and sharp eyes and look calm and steady, like a sharp blade ready to be unsheathed at any time, very reliable.

The Crown Clan's eyes, which had turned scarlet due to torture, hid a deep darkness, like an abyss of cold that was bottomless.

Her expression didn't change at all.

Nightmares... She was used to them.

That was the price she had to pay.

Fei Man turned and left the room, going downstairs first to wait for Amos and the cub.

Downstairs, Frey and Anya were already waiting.

This operation was a secret one.

There are not many members of the Crown Clan left, and there are indeed some Crown Clan members in the tribe that the cubs have not seen before, but the Crown Clan members that the cubs are familiar with basically all know about this action.

Melen and Kaman also arrived and were arguing with each other.

Hull sat silently beside them. Morlo was still receiving further treatment, and Job and Joshua were still under monitoring. The overall situation seemed to be slowly improving.

Brothers Job and Joshua are not the obedient members of the Crown Clan, but Hull has to admit that algae is really a powerful weapon for the Crown Clan - after all, they already have almost the strongest mental power in this galaxy. Although they can still be injured, except for pollution, other things can not cause any effective attack on them.

But the five-year-old Zao Zao did it equally - making every crown clan member who saw him take out Cupid's bow tremble.

"So I said, your problem is more serious. You are sick and need to recuperate in the royal court. But I am not. I am in good condition now. Why should I be treated the same as you? Xiao, Ka, Ka——"

Meilun supported his chin in dissatisfaction.

"After a round of rotation, it's time for me and Zao Zao to go out, right?"

Kaman rolled his eyes at Meilun: "Do you think we are going on a trip? You are sick. If you call me by this name again, I will shave your ugly white hair in the middle of the night."

"...Do you know how to appreciate it?"

Meilun opened his eyes wide, his defense was broken.

I don't know how old these old guys are, but they are still arguing over such a small matter.

Meilun pinched his white hair that was hammering on his shoulders.

"Didn't you see what Starnet said? Fashion! This is fashion."

"Are you sure you want to listen to what Starnet says?"

Kaman seemed to have heard the joke and looked at Melen again.

Without waiting for Meilun to refute, he spoke.

"Finny's beard can be called a personality and a rough guy."

Melen: ...Finny alone has lowered the reliability of the entire star network by several levels.

Oh no, he couldn't refute this.

"You're a little late today."

Frey leaned on the sofa, raised his hand and greeted Fei Man who was coming down.

Fei Man didn't say anything - in the hall, apart from the voices of Kaman and Meilun, there was basically no other voice.

This is the case for most of the crown family members of this generation.

When we are together in private, it is generally quiet.

Until Amos came down from upstairs holding the little cub.

The light warm yellow hue sets off the cub's skin tone very well, and the delicate and beautiful little halo on his head shines even brighter in this environment.

The cub hugged Amos' neck in a daze, looked down, and when he saw them, the halo above his head trembled slightly.

"Uncle, aunt, uncle, Grandpa Meilun, Grandpa Kaman, teacher, good morning——"

This morning, the young cub's tender little voice called out to all the crown tribesmen gathered here in one breath.

Hull just nodded without saying anything. Meilun suddenly laughed and waved at the cub.

"Good morning, Zao Zao," he elbowed Kaman, "Did you hear me? I called me first, earlier than you!"

Kaman: "...Is this your method of spiritual victory?"

Kaman, who had recovered a bit during this time, looked up at Xiao Chuzao, and his face, which had always been unfriendly, showed a slightly gentle smile: "Good morning, Zaozao."

Frey: Good morning.

Anya: "Ah... Come to think of it, today's work wasn't that great, but never mind - good morning, Zao Zao."

Fei Man stretched out her hand: "Good morning, do you want your aunt to hold you?"

The little cub's eyes widened and he clung to Amos' neck.

No, no, I decline.

"His Majesty."

It was Hull who spoke again.

He has been dissatisfied with Amos' decision since he learned about it yesterday.

"Although I have been advising you to let Zao Zao exercise more, he is a little crown clan member and not a flower under our control."

Although the Crown Clan protects their cubs, they are too strong individually, so they are not very good at raising them. The little Crown Clan will also get up after encountering setbacks, but Amos had completely underestimated how soft the little Chu Zao was, and there were many things that threatened the little cubs, so that they had to be carefully cared for for a long time during the following period. Now that Zao Zao is young, his living environment is different from before.

but--

"The Bo'er Alliance used to be the domain of the Lingtong Clan. We are both immortal species. As a force in the interstellar space to fight pollution and alien beasts, we rarely interfere in the affairs of the Bo'er Alliance. Our sphere of influence does not extend that far. I still think it is enough to let His Highness Feiman and His Highness Anya go."

As for Finny?

This guy is never reliable whenever he goes on a mission.

Everything was good only when he started out, and then he relied on his brute force to lead the third army of unlucky guys with similar temperaments to charge across the interstellar space, and there were always unexpected gains.

Hull didn't expect Feeney to play a big role here.

Now the Saint Cass forces on the former Bell Alliance side, mainly the army that set out before Finny, are conducting secret investigations, but the results are not good.

Hull, who had lost his lover and was in agony for several years, had an instinctive anxiety about this star field that he could not fully control.

"Teacher, don't worry."

Anya looked over.

"Second brother can protect Algae. Besides, there is the work of the Anthem organization over there. These guys are really like cockroaches, spreading all over the galaxy. When this organization began to appear, they were already everywhere."

Meilun took the opportunity to say: "You still like cockroaches so much."

Anya: ...

The little cub was actually still drowsy and the adults were talking in low voices. It took him a while to react before he looked at Amos.

Hull also knew that he was just wasting his time, and quickly changed his words: "Maybe I am worrying too much. It's time, Your Majesty, Your Highness Fei Man, Your Highness, get ready to go."

They walked down the corridor and came to the docking station of San Cass.

The sun hasn't risen yet.

They were halfway there when they sensed someone's presence in the distance.

Frey glanced to the side.

"It's Speaker Cheng Xuan. He came early in the morning to sort out the results of yesterday's agenda."

The Crown Clan were very secretive and did not make any sound.

However, with the passage of time, the influence of the previous emperor, His Majesty Clancy, has gradually disappeared within the Crown Clan, and the Crown Clan has undoubtedly regarded Amos as the irreplaceable center.

As the Crown Clan was gradually heading towards destruction, most of the Crown Clan basically still acquiesced to Clancy's original plan, that the Saint Cass Empire would cultivate new forces to cope with the desperate situation after leaving the Crown Clan.

But this did not prevent them from ignoring this old minister who was very loyal to His Majesty Clancys and was still carrying out His Majesty Clancys' orders.

"Sister Fei Man, I heard that you never went to the parliament after you came back, and you didn't say hello to Cheng Xuan?"

Anya raised his eyebrows and walked beside Fei Man.

Fei Man said without thinking: "Ah, I am socially anxious."

All the crown clan members paused for a moment.

What?

What do you say your company is?

Little Chuzao opened his eyes wide, leaning on Amos's shoulder and looking at the socially phobic 'kissing maniac'.

The tender little voice expressed the thoughts of all the crown clan members: "Ah?"

"You mean social phobia... is it about making others feel afraid when they are in the same society as you?"

Anya looked at Fei Man.

"Make up something more credible when telling lies."

As this was being said, in the early morning, the secret operation starship took off quickly.

*

at the same time.

At a research institute on a planet on the border of the former Bell Alliance.

“Hmm…”

Following a crisp sound of "crackling", the woman with a negative and decadent face let out a slight groan, frowned tightly, and big beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. She endured the severe pain and looked at her bent fingers.

"I saw the data you didn't have time to destroy. Are you from some research group at Saint Cass?"

The leader was a man who looked to be in his thirties. He was wearing an exoskeleton armor and carrying two energy guns on his back. Feeling very good about himself, he stepped on a stool with one foot and easily broke her fingers.

"Tell me, you've been hungry for several days. You don't have to count on anyone from Saint Cass to save you. Crown Clan? Oh, which side of the interstellar is the Crown Clan on? No matter how powerful they are, can they control us? They didn't dare to interfere in things here before. As for the group of guys who were wiped out by the Crown Clan, they were all sick. They knew how powerful the Crown Clan was, but they still had to come to the front to show off. I'm different."

The man raised his chin and asked her to look into the distance.

There were several people lying not far away. Some had been injected with unknown liquids and were unconscious. There were also people wearing Saint Cass military uniforms. They were the guards they had found before. No matter how high the quality of an individual soldier was, he could not defeat this group of guys who rushed over.

"In this lab, I have the final say. No matter how powerful Saint Cass is, he will not mobilize a large force just for a few of you little idiots. This is how the galaxy works. Can't you face reality and cooperate well? I've seen your name tag, Ms. Zhong, Ms. Zhong Zhiyi, right?"

Zhong Zhiyi finally raised her head slowly, her sweaty face was cold and gloomy, her lips were pale, and she only moved them coldly: "Get lost."

The man took two steps back.

He spat, and was really puzzled. What was going on with these Saint Cas people? He had received benefits from the Praise Group near the former Boer Alliance, and used the benefits to protect this laboratory. He had been the king and the boss here for many years, but he had never met such a stubborn person. Coercion, inducement, and hallucinogenic drugs could not make them speak.

And before that, they also discovered that Saint Cass's army had come to this vicinity. Saint Cass was so far away from the former Bell Alliance, but it didn't care at all, which made the originally comfortable environment a little tense.

It just so happens that the Zan Song Group can give them generous rewards, resources, territories, and even improve their mental power or obtain some special mental power drugs like the Immortal Seed.

The man waved his hand: "Go on."

He really didn't believe it.

"Boss Jiang Chao——"

The man turned around and the younger brother next to him came over.

"It's been very tense recently. I heard that many laboratories in distant star regions have been destroyed by unknown forces. Originally, the Boer Alliance was in chaos, and we were able to fish in troubled waters and find a lot of experimental subjects. Now it's not easy. A large number of them have been consumed, and it's difficult for the people of Saint Cass to kill them all at once. Do you think we should find a way to hijack a few more starships?"

Jiang Chao glanced at his men and responded with narrowed eyes.

"You are right."

"And those troops of Sancas have been searching everywhere. Should we reconsider these Sancas people...?"

"Why are you so scared?"

Jiang Chao glared at the men around him.

"There is still more than half a month before the National Day of Saint Cass. How can the Crown Clan have time to find trouble with us at this time? Impossible, the Crown Clan will not appear here! It is not easy to insert people into Saint Cass. Do you know the value of this research group? Let them go, it's impossible!"

Amidst these sounds, Zhong Zhiyi, who had been injected with a special drug and was about to pass out, closed his eyes in a daze, enduring the pain.

She thought about all this -

She has been wandering all her life.

She lost all her relatives at a young age and wandered on a wandering planet. An accident happened during her wandering and she was abducted and taken to an interstellar laboratory where she was tortured for many years. Some experiments were also done on her body. Misfortune surrounded her. The only lucky thing was that she was so lucky that she was still alive at this time.

Then the laboratory was destroyed by the army of Saint Cass, and she went to Saint Cass to make a living. As an outsider, she wanted to stay in Saint Cass, and her every word and action was monitored. She did not have as strong dependence on the Crown Clan as other Saint Cass people. She stumbled along the way and encountered all kinds of accidents. In the end, the only lucky thing was that she met her teacher when she was at a loss.

The teacher is in poor health and she is trying hard to learn everything.

But misfortune always accompanies her. At this moment, she came to the Boer Alliance to collect special samples, and the Boer Alliance completely collapsed. Not only was she brought here - the teacher might have heard about her. I wonder how the teacher is doing now...

There are probably people in the world as unfortunate as her, right? ... I have never known what it means to wait for the clouds to clear and see the moon.

*

The Crown Clan's starship, which said it had no time to deal with them due to preparations for the National Day ceremony, was moving secretly and quickly.

Some time had passed, and their starship landed on a planet on the edge of the former Boer Alliance.

This place is actually controlled by the army of the Saint Cass Empire.

On the way here, they got in touch with Finny.

Strangely enough, Finny seemed to have nothing to do with the main mission when he was on a mission, and he kept taking side quests. On his way forward, the Third Army's route deviated and they broke into an interstellar laboratory, which they quickly destroyed. When they were leaving, they encountered a strange starship, which had no attack capabilities, but was full of defense and speed. It provocatively fired a painless bombardment at them, and then quickly slipped away.

Finny followed him in keeping with the principle of not letting go - and hey, guess what?

He found one small stronghold after another that was developing, and in many of them he found the twisted symbol of the Anthem Organization. He even destroyed a member of the Anthem Organization, but he was probably just a small fry.

But as long as they can deal a blow to the Anthem Group, Finny's goal will be achieved. And if the disappearance of the civilian scientific research starship is related to the Anthem organization, maybe they can find new clues.

So he changed his mind temporarily and rushed forward.

The strange starship from before would occasionally appear, mysteriously taking them to a place, where they would destroy it, and then it would take them forward, as if marking target points one by one.

It doesn't seem like a provocation, but more like leading the way.

Finny was ordered by Amos to continue destroying those strongholds and looking for clues. Amos and Feynman had already arrived at the target star field with the cub.

At this moment, many people were busy on that special starship.

"Boss, how do I report?"

"How do you report?"

Shenghua leaned back in her chair, crossing her arms.

"Report truthfully!"

"ah?"

Wherever they go, they destroy the organization's stronghold. Is this reporting truthfully?

"You said so - we found that the Saint Cass army attacked us hard. We fought bravely, but we were still defeated and retreated step by step. However, we bravely fired at the Saint Cass army. Fortunately, our starships were fast and we escaped many times. However, the starships also suffered heavy damage and need more resources to repair them."

Shenghua supported her face and waved her hands.

"That's enough. Run faster. If you keep running, you'll be exposed. That fleet is too sharp. Find a chance to leave this place."

*

On the other side, Amos and Xiao Chuzao were boarding a civilian starship.

They received the latest relevant information. The route on the civilian starship had been searched back and forth, but nothing wrong was found around it.

However, I heard that it is normal for starships to disappear in this area.

In addition to the daily voyages and searches of warships, they also purchased many types of civilian starships commonly used by the former Bell Alliance, trying to fish, but to no avail.

Amos and Feyman boarded the starship separately, prepared to disguise themselves, and took a look around the area to see the situation.

Amos with the little cub.

Little Chuzao also disguised himself today. He was very small and was holding Amos' hand. He and Amos were wearing parent-child outfits today. They were both wearing dark brown windbreakers. The cub also wore a brown hat on his head. He looked up and smiled with his soft, round face, which was so adorable.

"Beep, beep—it's different, totally different—"

The layout of the civilian starships is completely different from that of Sancas’ military starships.

The dining area is at the front and seats are at the back. It is not as large as a warship, which is divided into rooms one by one.

The cub took Amos's hand, looked around curiously, and was finally held by Amos and brought to a seat by the window.

The starship they purchased was the most common one used by the former Bell Alliance. There were child seats and some toys to attract children's attention, which Xiao Chuzao had never seen before.

Amos briefly exchanged a few words with the people around him, and they sat down separately - all of them were soldiers from Saint Cass.

The starship set sail, and the cub was looking back and forth curiously with the toy in his hand.

This looks like a picture box. You can see the picture through the small hole in the middle, and you can adjust it continuously by pressing the button.

The cub held it high, tilted its head, and looked at it curiously.

Amos sat next to the little guy, looking outside and then back at the cub.

"Zao Zao, this may be a little dangerous."

"What danger?"

Amos looked at the little guy and was actually thinking. Although he could protect the cub, wasn't it a bit dangerous to take him to do these things at this age? Amos had never seen anyone else raising a Crown Clan cub, and his father had always let him do whatever he wanted. Amos was not sure about this standard.

"It's not dangerous, but it might be scary. Didn't Dad tell you before that someone abducted the starship?"

"Yeah, Zao Zao knows. If Zao Zao doesn't follow dad closely, they will kidnap Zao Zao!"

The cub tilted his little head back and talked to Amos.

It seems that he listened.

"Zao Zao will follow Baba closely!" Then Amos heard the little cub say, "Baba is the most powerful. Zao Zao believes in daddy. Daddy will not let Zao Zao be kidnapped!"

Amos paused, touched his little face, and responded.

The starship sailed for about a few hours with smooth sailing, and it seemed that it failed to find any clues this time.

But at this moment, a starship that arrived silently in the distance noticed this civilian starship.

Jiang Chao's men had been forced into a corner these days, and could only sneak around to find a suitable target after the Saint Cass army left.

He just said it, didn’t he find it? !

"Quick, get closer! Fire your naval guns!"

On the starship, the little cub had already looked through the photo boxes around him. The pictures inside were all different. Until he saw one, the little cub froze and remained stunned for a moment.

Amos realized something and looked down.

"What's wrong?"

The cub climbed up high holding the photo box, and mysteriously stretched out his little hands to cover Amos' eyes. Then he focused Amos's sight on the picture in the photo box and took his hands away - "Baba, look!"

Amos was caught off guard, and when he looked inside, the scarlet eyes stagnated slightly, and the pupils seemed to shrink for a moment, but on the surface he looked calm.

This is a tricky photo box, not a toy for children. After a few ordinary landscape paintings, a big face appears, which will suddenly scare people.

The cub had anger in his eyes and clenched his fists. He took off his shoes and stepped on the soft chair with his little feet in fluffy socks. He said softly, "Ba ba, Zao Zao is like this, he got scared!"

Amos: …………

So you want to scare dad too, right?

A filial son:)

Just as Amos was about to speak, he heard the alarm suddenly sounded. Amos was stunned for a moment, and someone in the front was shouting quickly.

"Your Majesty, there's a starship blocking our way, and they've fired their cannons! Signal us to turn on the connectivity settings!"

AMOS: ...Hmm?

Little Chuzao was still holding the prank photo box and stared at Amos blankly. He thought about it, then climbed down obediently to put on his shoes, and then put what he had learned into practice.

"Beep, beep, someone wants to kidnap Alpaca?"

Amos's voice was steady: "Yeah, and I have to kidnap my dad."
