When she met his gaze, Jian hurriedly waved her hand to show that she didn't care, then took out a piece of medical tape and tied her finger, looked at Chu Rong and said, "Thank you, Marshal, for taking care of my father. Prince An Ting has already contacted my father, and they will fully cooperate with your actions next."
Prince Antin?
Georgia was stunned and looked at Chu Rong in confusion.
Chu Rong noticed his gaze, raised his hand and rubbed his hair, then looked at Jian and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The room is ready. Rest first. We can talk tomorrow if there is anything."
Jane glanced at Georgia, nodded, and followed Fan south to her room.
It was indeed getting late. After Jane left, Chu Rong first sent Georgia back to his room to sleep, then went to the control room to reconfirm the route with Lin Zhen and others, and contacted Chu Huai by the way.
Georgia lay on the bed with her eyes closed for a long time but couldn't fall asleep, so she simply sat up and took out a baby toy that she hadn't finished making before, while waiting for Chu Rong to come back.
I don’t know how long it had been, but finally, I could vaguely hear a familiar sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door.
Georgia paused, put away the toys and lay back in the quilt.
As soon as Chu Rong entered the room, he found Georgia pretending to be asleep. Her poor skills of pretending to sleep, which had remained the same for the past few years, were too easy to see through.
He narrowed his eyes and didn't point it out. He went into the bathroom to wash up, then changed into pajamas and walked back to the bed. He lifted the quilt and lay down on it as usual.
A guy who was pretending to be asleep immediately moved over here naturally. He curled the corner of his mouth, stretched out his arms to hug the guy, and touched the guy's pajamas in an indecent way with his hands.
The subordinate's body visibly stiffened, and Georgia's ears, which had been pressed obediently, trembled, but his eyes remained closed, unwilling to remove the disguise of sleep.
So Chu Rong touched him even more excessively, and Georgia's face became redder and redder, and his body couldn't help shaking. Finally, when Chu Rong's fingers began to probe into some dangerous place, he couldn't help but opened his eyes, sat up and held down his hand, and stammered with a red face: "You, you..."
"What's wrong with me?" Chu Rong asked slowly, pulling him back into the quilt, retracting his hand to pinch his waist, and asked, "Why don't you sleep?"
Georgia was immediately distracted, and replied guiltily: "I, I slept, but I couldn't sleep... What about the situation with Prince Antin that Jane mentioned before? What arrangements have you made?"
Although he didn't really want to understand the twists and turns between these major forces, An Ting was at least someone he knew. When he heard Jian mention him today, he couldn't help but be a little concerned, and finally couldn't help asking.
Chu Rong didn't expect that he couldn't sleep because of this. He felt a little jealous, so he held him in his arms and touched his back. He suppressed his jealousy and replied, "An Ting came to see me before returning to the empire last year and asked me to protect him and his sister. I saw that he was very sincere, so I helped him and found a reason for the old king to send them to a planet outside the empire's main star to live, temporarily away from the power center of the empire. They hid themselves very well, and they didn't show up even when the old king died. Now Ans has revealed his fox tail, the whereabouts of the third prince are unknown, and the second and fourth princes are probably in danger after being demoted. The responsibility for punishing Ans must be legitimately stepped forward by a real royal family member, and An Ting is the best candidate."
Georgia frowned and asked worriedly, "Will he be in danger?"
"Don't worry, Jane's father will help him, and General Netasi will help him too." Chu Rong lowered his head and kissed his forehead soothingly, raised his hand to cover his eyes, and said, "Okay, the bedtime story is over, you should go to bed."
What kind of bedtime story is this? And it's obviously not finished.
Georgia rubbed down to try to avoid his hand and continued to ask: "What about General Netasi? You...well."
Chu Rong blocked his question with a light kiss, released her hand and brushed his bangs, and replied: "Netasi has long been suspicious of Ans. When the coalition army went on the expedition before, Ans tried every means to prevent Netasi from joining the army, which made Netasi truly certain of his suspicion. After the incident broke out, Netasi found a way to contact me, and I told him some things. Now he is considered an ally of the Chu family, so can we sleep together?" As she spoke, she touched him threateningly.
Georgia's ears froze, and she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She buried her head in his arms and closed her eyes.
Three days later, the flagship arrived at the federal border through a special channel. Georgia drew the traction magic circle again, but this time he learned his lesson and did not use such a brutal tool as a knife. Instead, he concentrated his magic power to break Jane's finger skin, let him drip enough blood on the formation, and then immediately used magic power to seal the wound and bandaged it carefully.
Jane was amused by his serious and nervous look and smiled. Her originally pale face looked much better because of this smile.
The formation started working again, and the direction it pointed to was indeed within the meteorite belt.
Chu Rong contacted Chu Huai again, arranged some things, and then ordered the flagship to sail into the meteorite belt.
It was the first time for Fan Xiangnan and the others to enter this huge meteorite belt. They were all carefully observing the surrounding environment and trying to draw a route map. Jian was full of curiosity and pulled Georgia to tell her the "adventure" story of being missing for two months.
With her good friend by her side, Georgia seemed much more lively. Chu Rong was relieved to see this, retracted his sight, and ordered Fan Xiangnan to speed up the voyage.
Their voyage this time was a secret one and could not be delayed for too long.
About a week later, during the fourth formation traction, the direction guided by the hair pointed back and slightly downward.
"Go back, go down."
Chu Rong ordered that the flagship's course should be changed immediately to the south.
After traveling for about half a day, they finally found the Imperial flagship in the ruins of a meteorite belt that was moving at a very fast speed, but the Imperial flagship was already rotten beyond recognition and lay there like a pile of scrap metal.
Probably because it had been crashing around in the meteorite belt for a long time, its outer shell was full of pits caused by meteorites, and some places were even damaged. The navigation lights and direction indicators were all broken, the white and gold color was covered with dust, and the imperial flag was torn into rags, making it look particularly miserable.
It has been almost a month since the end of the battle against the Insect Mother. The Third Prince is quite capable to have managed to turn the flagship into this state. You have to know that this is a flagship that can be used as a temporary base, not a warship or civilian ship.
There was no signal in the asteroid belt, and it was impossible to contact the people on the imperial flagship. Chu Rong didn't care about that and directly asked Fan to move southward toward the platinum flagship and forcefully established a channel for the two flagships to connect.
"Lin Zhen's team will stay in the control room, and the rest of you will follow me with your weapons."
Chu Rong gave the order and turned to walk out first. Georgia, who had been standing obediently on the side, immediately followed.
Chu Rong stopped and looked back at him.
Georgia moved his eyes back and forth, reached out and grabbed his hand, and took out his small hammer with his other hand, indicating that he was ready with his weapon and could fight at any time.
“…”
Fan Xiangnan and others who were following behind wanted to laugh when they saw this, but they managed to hold it back by turning their heads and coughing softly.
Chu Rong frowned, but finally held his hand and said, "Don't run around for a while, follow me closely. The situation on the imperial flagship is unclear, and we don't know whether the people inside will resist. Your own safety is the most important. Understand?"
Georgia nodded quickly and obediently took out a protective shield and put it on her wrist.
Chu Rong's brows relaxed, he raised his hand to touch him approvingly, and led him towards the opposite port.
The group approached the docking port cautiously, carefully opened the blocked hatch, played the military investigation video, and then blasted open the hatch of the opposite Imperial flagship, only to find that the situation inside the Imperial flagship was completely different from what they had imagined. There was no resistance, only the figures of Imperial soldiers wandering around the ground like zombies.
Their faces were pale and their cheeks were sunken, as if they had not eaten properly for a long time. Their eyes were dull and unfocused, and their movements were very slow and stiff, like corpses that were about to become rigid.
Georgia was so frightened by the weird and creepy scene that her ears became stiff and she unconsciously held Chu Rong's hand tightly.
Chu Rong quickly moved aside to block his view, glanced at the soldiers' expressions, and said, "Notify Zhuang Yu and ask her to bring the medical team over. These people must have been blinded by the Ning family's medicine."
Fan nodded to Nan, then turned his head and picked out a team member and asked him to return to the flagship to call Zhuang Yu.
The crowd walked around these seemingly unconscious imperial soldiers and continued to move forward. Chu Rong spread out his mental power, and Georgia followed suit by releasing his magic power.
The further they went in, the fewer soldiers there were. Considering the fact that the Empire's flagship had released a large number of soldiers before entering the black hole, the number of soldiers on the flagship was normal. When they reached the control room, they both stopped, looked at each other, and walked towards the lounge next to the control room in tacit understanding.
After arriving at the door of the lounge, Chu Rong first blocked Georgia behind him, then reached out and pushed open the half-open door of the lounge.
The warm yellow light spread out, finally adding a bit of warmth to this flagship that was as quiet and eerie as a tomb of the living dead.
A figure was curled up on the sofa in the lounge. After hearing the sound, the figure moved, then turned his head with a face with deep eye sockets and untidy beard, and his eyes moved blankly. After seeing Chu Rong's face at the door clearly, a terrible light suddenly burst out of his eyes. He rushed over and said hoarsely: "Save me, save me, take me out, I don't want to be trapped in these stones, take me out, I will be obedient, take me out, don't kill me, don't kill me..."
Although his voice was distorted and his appearance was disheveled, Chu Rong quickly recognized that this person was the new king of the empire, the third prince An Mu.
The once handsome new king turned into a skinny madman with a deranged look on his face. He only knew how to ask for help, his mental power was floating unsteadily, and there were signs of violence.
In other words, his mental strength may have gone too far.
Chu Rong stepped forward and knocked him unconscious, then bent down and threw him onto the bed, leaving the place for Fan Xiangnan and the others to clean up, then turned around and went to the control room with Georgia.
The situation in the control room was not much better. The captain and other senior personnel were lying on the ground, with injuries on their bodies and wooden expressions. There were signs of human damage on the flagship's operating panel, and several instrument screens were broken into pieces, as if someone had smashed them in a fit of rage.
No one knew what had happened, but everyone on the ship had lost their minds. If the flagship hadn't activated the emergency plan and regularly released nutrient sprays, all of them would have died long ago.
"Gather them together and keep them under guard, and search this flagship carefully." After Chu Rong arranged everything, he turned around and saw Georgia approaching the unconscious Third Prince, touching his chest. His face darkened, and he strode forward to hold his head, and asked coldly, "What are you doing?"
Georgia's body stiffened, and she tilted her head to rub his palm, then handed him something in her hand and said flatteringly, "This has strange energy fluctuations."
Chu Rong frowned when he heard that, glanced at the remote control-like thing in his hand, and used his mental power to sense it, but sensed nothing. Thinking of the peculiarity of Georgia's power, his heart sank, and he hurriedly took out an isolation cover to cover the thing.
"In fact, I have another device of this type that generates energy fluctuations." Georgia saw that he looked unhappy, so she quickly grabbed his hand and squeezed it. She confessed something that she had just remembered with a guilty conscience, saying in detail, "It was the time when I fought the insect mother. Didn't I go to the black hole? I took something out of it, but I slept for a long time afterwards and forgot about it when I woke up..."
During that time, his mind was full of the baby in Gu Yan'an's belly. Chu Rong was unwilling to let him get involved in investigation-related things because he was worried about the vine pattern on his wrist, so he didn't think about it until he detected a familiar fluctuation from the third prince just now.
Chu Rong's aura suddenly turned cold when he heard that. He put his hands over his ears and said with gritted teeth, "You actually took something out of the black hole? What if it was something dangerous or highly radioactive? Also, don't tell me you kept this strange thing with other power fluctuations in the storage ring bound to your body."
Georgia's eyes widened and she rubbed his palm even harder, looking extremely guilty.
He really had kept that thing in the storage ring, because when he just came out of the black hole, the space button of the mecha was affected by the black hole and could not be used temporarily. He was in a hurry and put the thing directly into the storage ring.
This reaction is simply an admission of guilt!
At this moment, Chu Rong thought of a lot of things. He remembered Georgia's persistent high fever when his power was violent, the vine pattern on Georgia's wrist, and the fact that Georgia always slept restlessly and had frequent dreams at night. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that all these messy negative situations were caused by that object with unknown energy fluctuations. He couldn't help but tighten his palms to hold his head, took a deep breath to suppress his violent temper, but in the end he couldn't help but pull his ear, then bent down to pick him up, and strode towards his flagship.
Georgia knew that he was really angry and did not dare to resist. She let him hold her obediently and buried her head in his shoulder to avoid the curious gazes of Fan Xiangnan and others. Her ears drooped because she felt guilty.
Chu Rong directly carried Georgia to the isolation room that had been repaired on the Chu family flagship. After he landed, he took out an isolation cover and signaled him to take the things out as soon as possible.
Georgia took a look at the isolation cover and whispered, "This is too small..." The strange thing he took out of the black hole was a little big.
Chu Rong's face darkened when he heard this. He estimated the size of his mecha, took out the largest isolation cover and placed it on the ground, motioning him to put the things in it.
Georgia hurriedly did as he was told. The next second, an oval device that was completely black and covered with strange red lines appeared in the isolation cover. Chu Rong felt that the color was not good when he saw it, and hurriedly reached out to close the isolation cover. With a dark face, he first surrounded Georgia with his mental power, then took out a yellow leaf wood potion and fed it into his mouth.
Afterwards, he felt unsafe, so he took out a few bottles of mental purification liquid and fed them all to Georgia. He didn't stop until Georgia's mouth was rosy.
After drinking a bellyful of pure energy, Georgia's face was slightly reddened by the warmth rising from the magic pool. She hurriedly held his hand in a soothing manner and said, "I'm fine, really. The power fluctuations of this thing are not as strong as the feeling brought to me by the mutated red tin ore."
These words completely stirred up another hornet's nest. Chu Rong narrowed his eyes and looked at him mysteriously, and the curve at the corner of his mouth looked a little dangerous.
Georgia's ears froze, and she felt that the days of her casual use of mutant tin ore might be coming to an end. She swallowed and tried to save the situation: "I haven't touched mutant tin ore for a long time. Really, it's always been Master Ren who directly gave me the processed secondary mutant tin ore. You know, secondary mutant tin ore has no radiation..."
This explanation was somewhat useful. Chu Rong calmed down and pulled his ear, not dwelling on it anymore. He turned his head to look at the strange device in the isolation cover, frowned and pondered for a while, then reached out and put it away himself.
While they were busy with this, the Empire's flagship had already been efficiently sorted out by Fan Xiangnan and others.
There were more than 200 surviving imperial soldiers, and more than a dozen died from various reasons. There were more than a dozen members of the Imperial Command Group in the control room who survived, and two died. The third prince was still in a coma, but his unstable mental condition had been brought under control.
Hundreds of useful confidential documents were found, as well as a dozen sealed safes, and many other scattered items that need to be further sorted out.
After hearing the report, Chu Rong ordered them to seal up all these things, and then sent people to transfer all the surviving imperial soldiers to the Chu family flagship for closed custody. The third prince and other high-ranking personnel were kept under separate custody. After that, he took back the imperial flagship and announced his return.
They have been away from the Federation for ten days since their secret voyage and can't delay any longer.
On the return journey, Chu Rong needed to provide the direction of blood location. Georgia was already very skilled in using magic to draw blood, but perhaps because he was afraid of hurting Chu Rong, his hand shook while moving and he accidentally cut his finger.
Chu Rong frowned, dripped his own blood into the formation, then immediately grabbed his hand and helped him stop the bleeding and bandage it.
Georgia felt that her performance in the past few days was really bad, so she lowered her head and let him take care of her, carefully comforting him without leaving any trace.
"What are you pretending to be?" Chu Rong brushed his bangs, thinking he was frightened, and said calmly, "Be careful next time. I don't mean to be mean to you."
Georgia hurriedly shook her head, but because there were others around, she only secretly squeezed his hand in response.
The formation started to work quickly, and after pointing out the direction, the hair turned into a red thread again and wrapped around Chu Rong's wrist.
Georgia suddenly felt the vine pattern on her wrist getting hot, but when she carefully sensed it, she found nothing. She thought it was an illusion and put the matter behind her.
Without having to find anyone, they were able to get out of the asteroid belt much faster. It only took them three and a half days to get out of the asteroid belt and return to the federal border.
Chu Rong immediately contacted Chu Huai. After learning that the situation in the Federation was relatively stable and that everyone had begun to arrange for a public trial, he felt relieved. He then contacted Netasi of the Empire and informed him to send someone to the border to pick up the third prince and carry out subsequent plans.
When Netasi got the news, he was very excited and said that he would send reliable people to pick them up.
At noon the next day, everyone met the man sent by Netasi, the National Master Feng, at the Chu family’s mining planet near the border.
Jane, who was standing behind everyone, was stunned at first, then immediately rushed over and shouted loudly: "Dad!"
Georgia was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that the person who came to pick him up would be the national teacher. He had complicated feelings towards the national teacher. Although he knew that the other party had no ill will towards him and was even very friendly, he instinctively couldn't get close to him.
Chu Rongze frowned, stepped forward and asked, "Why are you here?" According to the original plan, the imperial teacher should still be at the empire's headquarters.
"I escaped." The Imperial Master let go of Jane and nodded to Georgia as a greeting, then looked at Chu Rong and explained, "After the third prince disappeared, Ans behaved for a while and fooled the people with news of victory in the war. But as the imperial flagship never returned, the deception gradually lost its effect, and doubts began to emerge among the people."
What made the people of the empire uneasy was not only the fact that they could not wait for the new king to return, but also the blockade of domestic news. All the star stations that could once communicate with the Federation were unilaterally closed, and the news about the Federation disappeared overnight. Even the star network that could once freely break through the wall to communicate was forcibly isolated.
And contrary to the Federation which had lifted martial law long ago, the Empire's martial law became even more severe after the war.
The people could not get any information about the war from the Federation on their own, nor could they go out freely. All the information came from the upper echelons, which made them very uneasy. They even began to doubt whether the victory in the war was just a cover-up and that their new king might have been sacrificed.
At the same time, officials of the empire also began a secret purge. As if Ans was afraid that the situation would really get out of control, he suddenly strengthened his control over every aspect of the empire, eliminating dissidents and strictly using only his own people.
People like the national teacher, who were close confidants of the old king, were naturally the first to be purged.
Originally, Netasi would have been eliminated, but Netasi held military power and had a very high status in the hearts of the people of the empire. He was also always out inspecting the safety of the various planets in the empire and insisted on not returning to the headquarters, so Ans had no chance to take action.
"Now, to the outside world, I'm probably a traitor to the Empire." The Imperial Master said sarcastically. Seeing Jian's worried look, he patted him soothingly and continued, "I sent An Ting and An Lin to General Netasi. Before I left, Ans was ready to pick a puppet between the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince. In addition, I suspect Ans may want to go to war with the Federation and find a reason to push the disappearance of the Third Prince and the Imperial flagship onto the Federation. His internal purge this month is to prepare for war."
Another war, Georgia frowned.
The people are innocent. When two countries go to war, the soldiers and the people will suffer. Ans is really evil.
"He really doesn't know the situation on the battlefield. He has been able to keep his composure for a month." Chu Rong spoke coldly, thought for a while, and said: "I will accompany you to the empire. Ans is too cunning, and it is unclear how much he still has in his hands. You have too few chips, and it is too dangerous to act on your own."
The Imperial Master heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this and nodded gratefully at him.
This would naturally be the best. Antin is too small and he has lost too much of his own strength. Netasi can only take care of the people. Compared with Ans, their strength is indeed not enough. Chu Rong is willing to take the initiative to help. The possibility of success of this operation to attack Ans will be greatly increased.
Hearing this, Georgia turned her head to look at Chu Rong and held his hand tightly.
After confirming the next itinerary, Chu Rong contacted Chu Huai again to discuss the arrangements for subsequent matters, and then contacted Netasi and had a detailed discussion with the national teacher on how to attack Ans.
Georgia didn't quite understand what they were saying, and couldn't help, so he found Zhuang Yu and devoted himself to treating the imperial soldiers and the third prince. These people had been close to the center of the conspiracy, and they might know something.
With his help, Zhuang Yu felt much more relaxed. When the Chu family flagship quietly set sail again towards the empire, he finally managed to wake up the confused Third Prince. But as expected, the Third Prince turned into a taciturn person like Ning Tianxing.
Chu Rong's patience grew thinner as he learned more truths. Unwilling to waste time with the Third Prince, who was obviously a pawn, he directly performed a mental search on him, and unsurprisingly discovered that he also had a mental lock in his brain.
"It should be Ans who put the lock. It's easy to break, but his mind is empty. There is nothing in it. He is just a pure chess piece."
Chu Rong frowned and withdrew his hand, with disgust in his eyes.
Just now, during his search, he came across the memory of the Third Prince arranging for Chu Yan to enter the finals of the mecha driving competition. He was quite humane for not killing the Third Prince.
Afterwards, other senior personnel on the Imperial flagship also woke up one after another, but similarly, these people were all a bunch of idiots with empty brains.
Two days later, Chu Rong and Netasi met on a small planet on the border of the empire. All the people on the Chu family flagship were transferred to Netasi's warship. The warship then set sail and sent a message to Ans as planned, "The border Zerg have been wiped out and we are applying to return." Then it deviated from the route given by the message and took a detour from the other side to approach the headquarters of the empire.
Ans responded quickly. He first thanked Netasi politely for his efforts, and then said that he would give the triumphant soldiers a grand welcoming ceremony. Chu Rong, who had received the news, immediately took Master An Ting and others to secretly board a small warship customized by the Chu family, waved goodbye to General Netasi, and led the Chu family to speed towards the Empire's headquarters.
After another day of expedited sailing, the Empire's headquarters finally appeared before them.
"The patrols have been strengthened. These are all private soldiers raised by Ans. They are probably controlled by him using the Ning family's medicine." Imperial Master Feng looked at the strict security cordon shown on the star map and frowned, saying, "I didn't expect Ans to be so careful. It's too difficult for us to enter quietly."
Chu Rong also frowned. He certainly understood what the red marks on the star map meant.
"Are we trying to avoid these search devices?" George suddenly asked. After Chu Rong looked over, he stretched out a finger and condensed some magic power, saying, "Maybe I can try."
He is now a great magician with plenty of magic power reserves. It should not be too difficult for him to protect this small warship from being guarded and enter the Empire's headquarters.
Chu Rong's face darkened and he held his hand.
Imperial Master Feng Ze's eyes moved, and he carefully sensed the soothing power he had just released. He was vaguely puzzled, but could not hide his excitement - such a friendly power, Georgia was indeed a fellow tribesman.
"Let me try." Georgia looked at Chu Rong and assured him, "I'll be fine. You can stay by my side. You don't want Ans to continue messing around, right?"
Chu Rong tightened his grip, glanced at the other people in the control room, bent down with a stern face, picked him up, and took him to the lounge next door.
A quarter of an hour later, Chu Rong came back with an even uglier expression. Georgia smiled apologetically at everyone, sat down in the corner, drank a bottle of yellow leaf wood potion, then closed her eyes and silently released her strength.
Chu Rong sat next to him, with a dark face, and surrounded him with his mental power.
Seeing this, everyone tactfully stopped disturbing him and turned their attention to the star map.
The wood magic power slowly spread outwards, slowly enveloping the warship. At the same time, the icon representing the warship on the star map suddenly disappeared.
Fan Xiangnan and the others knew that it would be very exhausting for Qiao to do this, so they quickly suppressed their surprise and called the imperial teacher back to his senses. Following his instructions, they drove the warship towards a place where the imperial army's defense was weak.
After passing through several tight defenses without any danger, and then bypassing all secret checkpoints according to Georgia's occasional guidance, the warship finally landed smoothly in a remote valley somewhere on the Empire's headquarters.
After making sure there were no humans around, Georgia slowly withdrew her strength and then obediently nestled into Chu Rong's arms.
Chu Rong knew that his strength must be almost exhausted, so he quickly picked him up and walked into the lounge next door. He first took out a pile of jade for him to replenish his energy, then fed him a potion and put him to sleep.
It was almost dawn at this time. Fan Xiangnan contacted Netasi and after confirming that it would take him two more days to reach the main star, he announced that he would rest in place.
That night, after a good rest, everyone packed up their warships, took out their hovercrafts and drove towards the administrative center where the palace was located under the cover of darkness - they had to go to Ans's residence first to capture Old Man Ning, lest he hear of the news and run away the next day.
In this arrest operation, Chu Rong only brought Fan Xiangnan, Georgia and another team member who was good at disguise.
Although he didn't want Georgia to be in danger, his reason told him that Georgia had special powers and taking him with him was the right choice. Moreover, Georgia was not as weak as he looked and needed protection. On the contrary, he was strong and could protect others well.
Relying on Georgia's power and concealment, they successfully sneaked into Prince Ans's Palace and approached the villa where the Ning family lived.
Worried that the Ning family's special mental power would detect Georgia's strength, after roughly determining the Ning family's location, Chu Rong asked Fan Xiangnan to guard Georgia in a blind spot, and he took another team member who was good at disguise into the villa where Grandpa Ning was.
Georgia, who was doing this for the first time, seemed a little nervous. Fan Xiangnan thought he would make a mistake, but he didn't expect him to be unexpectedly calm and steady, and his speed of hiding his body was even faster than that of a trained person like him.
About half an hour later, Chu Rong came out carrying the unconscious Grandpa Ning. Another team member who was good at disguise did not follow him. He would stay behind to pretend to be Grandpa Ning to stabilize the situation.
Mission accomplished, everyone exited the Prince's Mansion along the same route and reunited at the safe base arranged by the Imperial Master.
In the Imperial Palace, Ans dismissed his subordinates and answered a call from a special channel.
"Still haven't found the puppet?" A strange and old voice came from the communicator, with some Zerg hissing and strange roars in the background, which seemed very eerie and terrifying.
Ans stood up straight immediately after hearing the voice. He knew that the other party couldn't see him, but he still showed a respectful look and replied: "Yes, according to my guess, the puppet should have been lost in the meteorite belt, but don't worry, the situation is still under control. I will find another puppet to serve you as soon as possible."
"Oh."
The old voice smiled in an ambiguous way, and after a long silence, he continued, "I gave you so many pets and created so many helpers for you, but you are still such a waste... The Ning family is like this, and so are you. Maybe I chose the wrong servant from the beginning."
Although he said this lightly, Ans's face showed a look of pain and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. However, he did not dare to reach out and touch his forehead. He just said with all his strength: "I'm sorry, please give me another chance."
There was silence for a while, and then the old voice suddenly softened and sighed, "That's all."
The pain on Ans's face immediately faded a lot.
"Over the years, I have watched you kids grow up, and I have developed some feelings for you... I need new food, send some over. And those people from the Ning family, kill them all, they are all useless, I will find other helpers for you."
The call was disconnected, and Ans fell into a chair. It took him a while to calm down the fear and pressure he felt when he was in contact with the old man. He raised his hand to support his forehead and rubbed it. When he stood up again, he had returned to his normal self. He found a number and dialed it, and ordered: "Clear the third batch of experimental subjects."
After arranging the old man's orders, he looked around the magnificent but extremely empty palace hall and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
After tomorrow, the last of the annoying people in the empire will disappear, and he will slowly catch and kill those escaped bugs. Then it will be those hypocritical idiots in the Federation. Everyone will have to pay the price for their contempt for him. He will be the only king of this blue galaxy.
At eight o'clock the next morning, the anxious people of the Empire finally learned the only certain good news in the past month on the morning news - General Netasi returned triumphantly, and he successfully wiped out all the Zerg in the Empire.
Once the empire is safe, martial law may be lifted. Although the new king has not returned yet, the situation is not too bad.
Of course, the Empire will not do any live broadcasts to appease the people like the Federation does. In a society where royal power is supreme, the words of the royal family are the best appeasement, and the people have no right to ask for anything else.
At the Imperial Military Port, Ans and his ministers, who had undergone a major change, sat in the port command room, waiting for Netasi to lead his troops to land.
At exactly nine o'clock, the shadow of the Netasi warship finally appeared in the air, but unexpectedly, Netasi did not try to concentrate the soldiers on the warship for landing as before, but instead formed a normal battle formation.
Ans immediately understood his little intention when he saw this, smiled sarcastically, waved his hand to the person standing behind him and said, "General Netasi, you have worked hard on the expedition, give me a salute to welcome you."
Upon hearing this, the newly appointed port manager immediately opened all the port's defensive artillery batteries and fired intensively at the warship hovering in the air.
Netasi, who was well prepared, immediately ordered the warships to take off to avoid the artillery fire. At the same time, the army, which had already formed a battle formation, immediately displayed its weapons towards the port and took a posture of resistance.
"Poor stubborn and stupid general." Ans sneered, picked up the external communication device, and said, "Traitor Netasi, you colluded with the Federation to murder the king first, and then fired at the king and his compatriots in the empire. Your crimes are really heinous. If you surrender, I can still give you a way out, but if you resist stubbornly, don't blame me for not remembering our friendship."
