Chapter 219 Killing the Star Beast
Jiang Wangyue had no idea what Ethan was thinking. After dividing the chicken legs, she couldn't wait to lower her head and eat a mouthful of hot noodles. Her eyes lit up instantly.
"Wow! Dad, your cooking skills are amazing!"
Chen Yanzhou chuckled, "Your mother doesn't care about anything else, but she loves eating, especially the food I cook."
Hearing his words, Jiang Wangyue couldn't help but yelled, "Comrade Shen, what's wrong with you? You're bullying me because I can't show off to you now, right? Just wait until Lan Xue and the others arrive!"
"What are you going to do when we get there?"
"I--"
Before Jiang Wangyue could finish his words, a loud bang suddenly exploded outside the house.
Ethan quickly stood up and extended his mental strength without hesitation, protecting Jiang Wangyue behind him.
"It's a star beast! Run!!"
Screams rang out one after another, and Chen Yanzhou rushed out of the house in one step.
Jiang Wangyue grabbed Ethan's wrist and ran outside with him.
The panicked crowd fled in all directions. An orc cub was accidentally pushed to the ground and immediately burst into tears in fear.
The hideous and ugly star beast opened its bloody mouth, and sticky saliva dripped onto the cub's head.
Seeing that the star beast was about to swallow the cub in one gulp, Chen Yanzhou suddenly flew over, holding the cub and rolling several times in the snow, narrowly escaping from the star beast's mouth.
Two powerful mental forces appeared at the same time and attacked the star beast.
Ethan subconsciously glanced at Jiang Wangyue.
Her expression was extremely solemn.
Noticing Ethan's gaze on him, Jiang Wangyue paused, then pulled out a pulse gun from the space button and handed it to him.
This was lent to her by the female officer outside Carlos Manor last time. Later, Jiang Wangyue forgot to return it because she had too many things to do.
It comes in handy now.
"Kill it."
Jiang Wangyue had no doubt about Ethan's strength as an imperial admiral, especially since his spiritual sea had recovered.
It is the best option to deal with this star beast for him.
Without any hesitation, Ethan gripped the pulse gun tightly in his hand, turned around, spread his snow-white wings, and rushed straight towards the huge star beast.
Star beasts were born in the void. They have ugly faces and huge bodies. They have no human intelligence and fight only by instinct.
Ethan's military achievements were earned through real fighting on the battlefield. He had no idea how many Zerg and Star Beasts he had killed.
Facing this star beast that was obviously not in its prime, Ethan pulled the trigger and the pulse ray went straight to the star beast's vital point.
Chen Yanzhou placed the rescued cub aside, squinted his eyes and watched Ethan's movements in the air, a hint of admiration suddenly flashed in his eyes.
His movements were decisive and efficient without any delay, worthy of being the youngest admiral in the empire.
Although the huge star beast had thick skin and flesh, it was still no match for Ethan. It only lasted for a moment before falling to the ground.
It was only then that the planet's garrison troops finally arrived.
Jiang Wangyue glanced at them and couldn't help but frown.
Don't these people look too lazy?
The rescued cub clung tightly to the corner of Chen Yanzhou's clothes, and only burst into tears again when he saw his father crawling towards him.
The man held the child and thanked Chen Yanzhou repeatedly.
Ethan had already retracted his wings and turned over to the ground, quietly standing beside Jiang Wangyue, watching his surroundings vigilantly.
Chen Yanzhou chatted with the cub's father for a few words, then turned around with an expression that suddenly became extremely serious.
The three of them returned to the house. They could still hear faint cries outside, which was frightening.
Chen Yanzhou punched the wall, his face as cold as ice.
"This planet has been plagued by star beast attacks for years, but the planetary governor never reports them, let alone sends troops to protect the settlements outside the main city. They are left to fend for themselves. Every time a star beast is killed or leaves on its own, the troops from the main city arrive leisurely to clean up the mess."
Jiang Wangyue was about to speak when she saw the terminal on her wrist light up.
It’s a message from Lan Xue.
Jiang Wangyue quickly clicked it to check, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lan Xue said they have passed the last jump point. If they continue at full speed for the rest of the journey, they will arrive around seven o'clock tomorrow morning."
Chen Yanzhou nodded, "We'll talk about other things after they arrive."
"good."
As time passed, the noise and crying outside gradually faded away.
Ethan pushed open the door and took a look. Those people did not take any measures to deal with the situation. They just let the huge star beast fall silently in the snow.
Jiang Wangyue peeked out from behind him and couldn't help but let out a light exclamation.
"Is there someone coming over there again?"
Because the two of them were so close, as soon as Jiang Wangyue opened her mouth, her warm breath immediately sprayed on Ethan's neck.
He suddenly gripped the door handle, took a deep breath, and looked up into the distance with forced composure.
Someone is indeed coming.
A group of dozens of people, all dressed in black, looked at the dead star beast, exchanged a few words, and then began to act.
They had a clear division of labor. They cut up the huge star beast that was inconvenient to move as a whole and transported it away in batches. Finally, they cleaned up all the bloodstains on the ground.
It can be seen that this group of men in black often do this kind of thing and are very adept at it.
"It's someone from the black market."
Ethan whispered.
Jiang Wangyue turned to look at him and asked in surprise, "How did you know?"
"The clothes they wear are the same as those of the guards and patrol officers in the black market."
As soon as Ethan finished speaking, Jiang Wangyue received Yue Shu's communication request.
"Did you kill that star beast?"
Hearing Yue Shu's question, Jiang Wangyue immediately raised an eyebrow, "So those who dealt with the star beast corpses are really your people?"
"Yes, most of them grew up on this planet, so they handle things more conveniently and carefully."
"Yueyue."
Jiang Wangyue turned and looked at Chen Yanzhou when he heard the voice.
Chen Yanzhou looked calm and said in a deep voice, "Ask Yue Shu to send us the map of the planetary governor's residence."
"Dad, do you want to—"
Chen Yanzhou's eyes were filled with murderous intent. "I almost forgot. There's something I need to take care of before I leave. Since Phils is dead, there's no reason why the dog he left behind can still be alive."
I didn't take action earlier because I was worried that it would bring unnecessary trouble and put my daughter in danger, so I spared his life for the time being.
But now, the crisis has been resolved, and it is time for the dog to go to hell with his master.
Jiang Wangyue nodded slightly and conveyed Chen Yanzhou's request to Yue Shu on the communications side.
Yue Shu agreed without hesitation.
After the communication ended, Ethan suddenly said, “General Shen, why don’t you leave this matter to me.”
He is an Imperial, so it is more appropriate for him to take action than a former Federation general.
Otherwise, once the matter is exposed, Chen Yanzhou, who has already been falsely accused of treason, will be in an even more difficult situation in the Federation.
Chen Yanzhou glanced at Ethan sharply, "You are quite considerate, but there is no need."
