Several hours later.
Using negotiations as a pretext, Waghlaf demanded that both sides meet in the ceasefire area.
Torso frowned immediately, remained silent for nearly twenty seconds, and said, "This matter is too big; I need to discuss it with the brothers."
“Sure!” Vagraf’s tone became sharp. “We can stall, but I’m afraid you can’t afford to. I’ll give you an hour to consider it. If you still can’t make up your mind by then, there’s no need for further negotiations.”
"No matter the outcome, I will let you know!" Torso's face was frosty.
He immediately disconnected from public communications and contacted Fei Qiujiu Shi, informing him of Wagraf's idea.
"Negotiations are possible! However, not in the ceasefire zone, but outside our forward positions!" The strategist squinted, a smirk playing on his lips. "If they dare to make any unusual moves, we'll capture them and use them as bargaining chips."
"They're not stupid. Why should they come to your territory to negotiate, and why can't they bring a large number of troops?" A captain glanced at the strategist.
Torso nodded, giving a wry smile. "Also, if the other side dares to suffer more than five times the casualties, what will we use to stop them?"
Fei Qiujiu smiled knowingly, "You don't need to worry about that. We have something they're wary of." She looked at Tuoersuo, "Just agree. Then... understand?"
"Don't worry, big brother, I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" Torso said excitedly.
Fifty minutes later, Wagraf received the 'agreement' message.
"Start preparing now, we absolutely cannot afford to make any mistakes!"
"Yes, General!"
The appointed time arrived quickly, and both sides dispatched a transport ship, unarmed.
Head towards the central area where there is a large meteorite.
When they were 200 meters away from the meteorite, the transport ship stopped moving forward, and the high-ranking officers from both sides, wearing interstellar protective suits, glided toward the meteorite area.
Three people went to Váglav's side.
Torso brought three people with him.
After they met, neither of them spoke, and they just looked at each other quietly.
Half a minute later, Bian Che spoke first: "If this is a negotiation, what's the point of talking if no one says anything?"
"You're just a follower, and the general hasn't even said a word. When did it become your place to babble?" The tall bear-headed man pointed at him angrily.
Both commanders glanced at them, and the two immediately shut up and stepped aside.
"We only have one request, but I'm afraid you can't make that decision!" Torso smiled, his eyes slightly narrowed.
"You haven't even said what your request is, how do you know I can't make the decision?" Vagraf rolled his eyes at him. "Speak up, what's your request!"
Thorso pointed to the encirclement, "Immediately withdraw the troops surrounding us and shut down the star system's electromagnetic interference!"
"Heh!" Vagraf squinted, a half-smile playing on his lips. "Why don't you just tell us to evacuate and recharge all your fighter jets' energy?"
The bear-headed man flew into a rage, "What the hell do you mean? We're here to negotiate and resolve this issue, not to listen to your sarcastic remarks."
"That's right!" The tiger-headed man crossed his arms, his whole body radiating murderous intent, like a fierce tiger poised to pounce on its prey at any moment.
Maoqiu snorted coldly, his gaze falling on the tiger-headed man's hair like a drawn blade.
Clang!
A clump of hair fluttered in the wind.
Torso frowned slightly, staring intently at the furball. "So you have such a master. No wonder you're so fearless." He turned around angrily. "Since you don't want to talk properly, there's no need for further discussion. I'll lay my cards on the table: we're going to war as soon as we get back."
Bian Che's fingers, which were behind his back, twitched.
Suddenly, golden light shone all around, enveloping the entire meteorite area and isolating it from the outside world.
"You?" Torso and the others were shocked.
A sharp sword beam swiftly pierced towards Torso's vital point.
The bear-headed man reacted quickly, knocking the sword aside, but was struck by the sword's edge, spitting out blood.
Bian Che and the others also made their moves at the same time, each fighting against an enemy.
Xiaoman's figure gradually became clearer as she launched a full-scale attack on Torso.
He was just a weakling with a Force level of three and a half; he couldn't even dodge, let alone fight back.
"Help me! Help me!"
The bear-headed man forced Bian Che back with all his might and charged straight at him.
Xiaoman's lips curled into a cold smile as she spun her Fish Intestine Sword, unleashing a terrifying sword beam.
The sword's edge was incredibly fast; if he didn't dodge, his head would be sliced off. But if he did dodge, he would create distance between himself and Torso.
A brief hesitation led to the missed opportunity for rescue.
Torso was swept away by the sword's edge, flying backward and crashing to the ground unconscious.
"Help! Help!"
The bear-headed man panicked completely, abandoning even his defenses, and used his body to meet the sword's edge head-on, trying to stop Xiaoman.
He underestimated the assassin's speed. In an instant, the assassin was beside Torso, grabbed him, and shouted, "If you don't want him to die, put down your weapons!"
The three were shocked and quickly forced their opponent back, glaring angrily at Xiaoman, "Release the Commander!"
"Why should I release it?" Xiaoman looked at them teasingly. "However, it's not impossible if you can come up with the corresponding exchange items."
"You?" The bear-headed man clutched his wound, furious.
The tiger-headed man nudged him and whispered, "Calm down, the commander-in-chief is in her hands."
The two men immediately calmed down and glared angrily at Vagolov.
"Don't look at me, the hostage isn't in my hands!" Vagolov spread his hands, a sly grin on his face.
The three of them were furious, but dared not retaliate, and their chests ached.
Suddenly, Xiaoman carried the tow rope forward, and the three dared not stop her, so they could only retreat.
As they retreated, they arrived at the edge of the area.
Two sharp sword beams enveloped the surroundings.
The bear-headed man was injured and cumbersome; he had barely made a dodging stance when the sword's edge pierced through his body.
The other two escaped unharmed, but one lost his left arm and the other his right calf.
Meanwhile, attacks from Bianche and Vagerov followed.
Boom! Wow!
The two were severely injured again, and their deaths were only a matter of time.
Maoqiu, not wanting to leave any future troubles, attacked with all its might, making the sword beams even denser.
ah......
Looking at the corpses cut into pieces by the sword's edge, Bian Che and Vagerov felt a chill run down their spines and broke out in a cold sweat.
Xiaoman pressed several acupoints on Tuoersuo and tossed him to Bian Che, saying, "Don't stand there, hurry back, lest something unexpected happens!"
"good!"
As soon as the isolation beam was withdrawn, the prison army responsible for providing backup rushed towards this area.
"Contact our people immediately, quickly!" Xiaoman said gravely.
Whoosh!
Two lasers landed near them, and the blast wave knocked several people over, but fortunately they were not injured.
Váglav roared into the communications system: "Full attack! Full attack!"
The stealth fighters collectively deactivated their stealth capabilities and unleashed a barrage of fire at the enemy ranks.
Boom!
Enemy planes continued to explode, and the meteorite cluster was temporarily safe.
Ten seconds later, a fighter jet hovered near the meteorite. Before the hatch could open, an anxious voice rang out: "Board the plane quickly!"
Maoqiu and Wagerov carried Torso, while Bianche covered Xiaoman.
Just as the three men climbed into the fighter jet, a beam of light struck, hitting the side of the jet and setting it on fire.
"Get out of here!" Bian Che pushed Xiaoman inside, immediately closed the hatch, and exuded a terrifying aura close to that of a fifth-level Force expert. "You bastards, come on, come and kill me!"
The Force was so dense that even beam weapons couldn't penetrate it.
"Hurry, hurry up!" Bian Che's mouth was bleeding, and he was sweating profusely, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.
Whoosh!
The fighter jet finally took off, and his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease. He withdrew his original force and staggered badly.
He smiled wryly and looked in the direction of home. "Your Highness, I'm afraid Bian Che will no longer be able to accompany you on the battlefield. Please take care of yourself!"
The beam of light was almost upon him; he slowly closed his eyes, welcoming death.
Suddenly, I felt an incredibly strong dragging force on my waist.
"What is this?" Bian Che opened his eyes and looked at his waist, where there was a bright green vine. "It's Her Highness the Princess!"
A beeping sound came through the communicator: "Don't speak, keep your balance!"
Bian Che quickly composed himself and used the remaining primal force to speed up his escape.
At the same time, more than a dozen Inferno Lion fighter jets rushed to escort them, and they were completely out of danger.
Bian Che let out a long breath. "With such a princess and prince, how can the kingdom not prosper, and how can the people not live in peace and contentment?"
No one could have predicted that today's actions would create an interstellar super-empire. (To be continued)
With no worries about their rear, the imperial army focused all its efforts on crushing the prison air force.
They had no proper commander and were completely disorganized. They lost half their men in less than three minutes.
The remaining men either fled or surrendered, leaving less than twenty fighter planes to put up a last-ditch resistance.
Xiaoman saw everything, and as she turned around, she thought to herself, "Maoqiu, come with me!"
The two rushed toward the tarmac.
Shortly afterward, a fighter jet with an unusual flight path appeared in the combat zone.
The Infernal Lion fighter jet squadron members recognized it at a glance and immediately provided escort on both flanks.
"Order: Ensure the safety of the prince and the princess at all costs." Vagraf said coldly, clenching his fists, looking very nervous.
If a group of fighter jets suddenly went to protect a single fighter jet, even a fool could guess that someone on board must be very important.
The leader of the resisting squad immediately rushed over.
Whoosh!
The prison formation activated its protective shields and charged straight at the fighter jet piloted by Xiaoman.
Meanwhile, the Infernal Lion fighter squadron also used the same method to protect the main fighter jet.
Neither side wanted to back down, and they both mustered their courage.
Xiaoman's eyes reddened with anxiety, and she shouted hoarsely, "Scatter! Scatter!"
Instead of scattering, the guardians clustered together.
"Retreat!" The furry ball made a bold decision, plummeting straight down before making a sharp turn. "We're out of the combat zone! Scatter immediately! Scatter immediately!"
The Infernal Lions formation then dispersed.
In just a few seconds, they lost three fighter jets, while the enemy lost five.
"You damn prison army, I'm going to slaughter you all!"
"Kill them! Use strangulation tactics!"
Once dispersed, the fighter jets were as ferocious as tigers among sheep, instantly destroying six prison fighter jets.
"Even if we die, we will wipe them out!" said the prison fighter captain.
The idea was good, but the strength was insufficient; his subordinates were quickly wiped out, leaving only him.
With a long sigh, it ramped up the power and crashed straight into the main ship's energy storage compartment.
"Intercept it! Intercept it now!"
Hundreds of fighter jets rushed out from all directions, but they could not stop them.
