Chapter 242 I Believe in Him
Ethan's pupils shrank suddenly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face: "Half of the Zerg frontline troops have withdrawn?!"
The blond male orc nodded quickly. "Yes! We were worried that something might have happened in the imperial capital, so we rushed back to check it out. We didn't expect... something really happened."
"No... the problem is far more serious than this!"
Ethan said in a deep voice, and quickly opened the terminal to contact Jiang Wangyue.
However, before the communication request was sent, a red warning sign flashed on the terminal screen.
Seeing that something was wrong, the others quickly opened their own terminals, only to see the same situation.
Ethan's heart sank to the bottom.
The terminal signal was actually blocked.
After a moment of silence, someone whispered, "Admiral, what should we do?"
Ethan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then suddenly opened them and gave a decisive order: "Divide the troops into two groups! One team will be responsible for investigating the movements in the palace, and the other team will be responsible for finding the signal blocking device and destroying it! Remember! Act quickly!"
After Ethan finished speaking, he turned to look at the young man and asked about his beast form.
After learning that the boy's animal form was a white-throated needletail swift, Ethan immediately took off the terminal in his hand and handed it to him.
"Go to the chaotic neighborhood on Planet Three and find a male named Felix!"
The boy looked at Ethan in disbelief, "Why do you trust me so much?"
Ethan didn't explain anything, just asked him to leave now.
"Complete the mission, then come back to see me alive, and I will tell you the reason."
The young man gritted his teeth, clenched the terminal in his hand, looked at Ethan deeply, and immediately spread his wings and left the area without hesitation.
The blond orc looked at the gradually darkening night sky and the young man disappearing into the night. He couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Admiral, do you really believe that child?"
Ethan hummed, put his hands in his pockets, and nodded lightly.
Originally, there was only five points of trust, but after learning about the child's beast form, it became ten points.
Ethan lowered his eyes to glance at his empty wrist, then slowly clenched his fist.
Jiang Wangyue...
"Admiral! Everything is ready!"
Ethan withdrew his thoughts and responded coldly: "Action!"
This was Jiang Wangyue's fifth failed attempt to contact Ethan.
Someone couldn't help but raise a questioning voice: "He is an orc of the Empire after all. There is no way he is really on the same side as us."
Jiang Wangyue looked up at him, her eyes calm and cold. "I believe him. This situation only means that the empire and the imperial capital are facing more serious troubles. It also indirectly confirms that the news he just sent is all true."
"The Empire has been completely controlled by the Zerg."
The command room suddenly fell into deathly silence.
After a while, a sound was heard.
"How is this... possible?"
Jiang Wangyue looked down at her fingertips, then slowly clenched them.
But before she could say anything, a hand pressed hard on her shoulder.
Ling Yue's gaze swept calmly over everyone present, and in his eyes was the madness that they were familiar with.
His voice was not loud, but it made everyone feel afraid.
"The most impossible thing has happened. You may not believe it, but from now on, anyone who disobeys orders will be shot on the spot."
"Believe me, I can do anything."
"Those belonging to the Fourth Legion, return to your positions and await further orders."
After a brief silence, many high-ranking officers of the Fourth Legion immediately responded in a deep voice.
Ling Yue turned around and ruffled Jiang Wangyue's hair. Seeing that she was still staring at him in a daze, he chuckled.
"What do you want to ask?"
Jiang Wangyue came back to his senses and slowly shook his head.
Ling Yue flicked her forehead with his finger and said, "I'll leave the contact with the Empire to you."
"good."
After Jiang Wangyue left the command room, he went straight to find Nora.
When the latter learned that she wanted Felix's contact information, he gave it to her without saying a word.
Jiang Wangyue first sent a message tentatively, and only made the call after receiving a reply.
"Hello, Miss Jiang."
"Your Highness Felix, first of all, thank you for your prompt notification at that time."
The other party didn't expect Jiang Wangyue to mention this. He was stunned at first, and then said in a hoarse voice, "You're welcome."
After a pause, Felix added, "Sister said you were her good friend, and I don't want to make her sad because of my inaction."
Jiang Wangyue turned on the sharing mode when she dialed the call, so Nora also heard what Felix said.
Her eyes suddenly lit up.
He is indeed her good brother!
Jiang Wangyue looked at her helplessly, his expression relaxed a little, and he asked in a low voice about the current situation of Ethan and the empire.
"I'm not in the imperial capital right now, but judging by the news I've received, my father... might have been replaced by the Zerg a long time ago."
Felix's tone and mood were complicated. That was his father, but he had never noticed anything unusual about him.
Nora, who knew her brother very well, took over the conversation, "This has nothing to do with you. You only see him a few times a year. Be good, let's talk about business."
Felix responded softly and talked about other things.
"Ethan is still in the Imperial Capital, but he's currently out of contact. I suspect the Zerg have activated a signal blocking device. Otherwise, given his personality, there wouldn't have been any news from him for so long."
Ethan is confirmed to be missing...
Jiang Wangyue raised his hand and pressed his throbbing solar plexus, then continued, "Do the other people in the empire know what's going on?"
"I don't know yet, so I plan to start from this aspect. Since we are going to make chaos, then let's make everything chaotic."
When Jiang Wangyue heard what Felix said, a hint of surprise suddenly flashed across his eyes.
Nora, on the other hand, was eager to watch the fun and encouraged her brother to write a letter to all the people in the empire. However, before she could finish her words, she was kicked aside by Jiang Wangyue.
"Don't listen to your sister's nonsense. Follow the plan you and Ethan made."
"I--"
Felix had just begun to speak when he was interrupted by the sound of hurried footsteps.
Immediately afterwards, the subordinate's surprised voice sounded in his ears and Jiang Wangyue's ears on the communication side at the same time.
"Your Highness! A little swift has brought the latest news about Admiral Ethan!"
Jiang Wangyue stood up suddenly and subconsciously clenched his fists.
Ethan...
Felix looked over with surprise, "Where is he?!"
The disheveled boy shook off the raindrops from his hair, then carefully handed the well-protected terminal in his arms to Felix.
His voice was very hoarse and weak.
"Admiral... the admiral didn't say anything, just asked me to hand this over to you..."
Felix rushed over and supported the staggering boy.
