Chapter 163: Quelling the Rebellion



Elaine brought her three children to the square outside the palace. Miguel was waiting impatiently for them to get on the spaceship. At this time, Martha and her guards suddenly surrounded them and blocked the way of Elaine and others.

"Martha, what do you mean?" Elaine asked puzzledly.

"Queen, where are you and the children going with your luggage and packages?" Martha asked, pretending to be ignorant.

"Aunt Martha, Miguel's father wants to take us to North Town to stay for a while, and they will be back soon." Roy hurriedly came up to smooth things over.

"Stop lying to me. I'm afraid the North Town has been captured by Luo Tian. Otherwise, Lord Mig wouldn't have condescended to come to my West Town!" Martha exposed Roy's lie.

Seeing that Martha already knew something, Roger said directly, "Mother Martha, Luo Tian wants to kill us. Now his army is about to attack us. If we don't run away, we will be dead if he catches us."

"Oh, so you wanted to run away. Why didn't you tell me in advance? If I hadn't seen you bringing people here, I'm afraid you would have run away long ago? What's even more ridiculous is that your family packed your luggage quickly, but you didn't plan to take my daughter Mana with you, right?" Martha questioned.

"The escape journey was too difficult. I was afraid Mana wouldn't be able to adapt, so I didn't tell her. Wouldn't it be nice to let her live with you? We can take care of each other." Roger argued.

"Roger, Roger, I really misjudged you. I, Martha, have been very kind to you. Not to mention that you have embezzled financial funds to recruit soldiers for yourself over the years, and I turned a blind eye to it. Later, when Luo Tian succeeded to the throne, you asked me, Xizhen, to support you in declaring war on Luo Tian, and I came to help you without hesitation, despite the crime of treason and death. Now that you see that the situation is hopeless, you throw this mess to me and want to escape by yourself. You even don't want your wife anymore. Are you still a human being?" Martha was completely disappointed with Roger.

"Mother Martha...I'm not that kind of person..." Roger really couldn't refute.

"Martha, don't make yourself sound so noble. You supported Roger's rebellion, wasn't it also so that you could become the emperor's mother in the future and reach the pinnacle of power? Besides, don't I know how much money you have embezzled from the treasury over the years? If Roger and I hadn't protected you, Robert would have killed you long ago. Let me tell you, we don't owe you anything!" Elaine refuted.

"Hahaha, I just see clearly that you are a bunch of ungrateful wolves. I have let a wolf into the house. I have gambled the century-old foundation of the Maren family. Now think about it, I was really crazy. Since you are so unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. I won't let you go. If Luo Tian breaks through West Town and you all run away, leaving our Maren family behind, it will be a capital crime of extermination of the entire clan!" Martha said.

"Mother Martha, why don't you take Mana and Mary with us? We can still be a family," Roger suggested.

Miguel said, "Prince, this won't work. The space on the spacecraft is limited. My son and daughter are both inside. We can only provide four seats. If Martha brings her two daughters on board, the spacecraft will not be able to accommodate them."

Martha smiled and said, "Roger, there are only so many seats now. Do you want your mother and your brothers and sisters to live, or do you want your wife and her family to live?"

This question was simply unanswerable for Roger, and his inner balance was definitely leaning towards his mother and his younger brothers and sisters, but he didn't dare say it out loud.

"Son, stop talking nonsense with her. I'm going to force my way in. Do you think she dares to stop me?" Elaine walked towards the spaceship with her luggage, but she didn't expect that two tall and strong guards blocked her way without giving her any face.

Elaine had never been wronged like this before, and she shouted, "Martha, you dare to stop the queen, this is a capital crime."

Martha chuckled and said, "Rebellion is a capital crime anyway. Now Luo Tian's army is about to break through the palace gate. If you run away, I will be dead, so I don't care about adding another capital crime. Elaine, I have to remind you that you are no longer the queen."

Elaine roared in anger: "Miguel, what are you waiting for? Kill Martha quickly, otherwise none of us can leave!"

Miguel felt that Elaine's words made sense, so he said, "Martha, if you know what's best for you, get out of the way. This is a Saturn City spaceship. If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being rude."

Of course Martha didn't want to fight with Miguel. She just wanted to delay a little while and wait for Luo Tian to come.

At this time, Luo Tian and his guards had approached the target location. He ordered everyone to load their weapons and be ready to fight the enemy at any time.

Miguel was already on the spaceship. He activated the attack system, aimed at Martha's guards, and warned them, "Martha, I'll give you one last chance. Will you let them go?"

"No, just come over here!" Martha said this, but actually she quietly retreated to the back, worried that the spaceship would really hurt her.

Seeing that Martha refused to give in, Miguel aimed the sight at the guards and pressed the fire button. Soon several lasers were shot out, and several guards fell to the ground instantly.

Martha was terrified by the power of the spaceship. She knew that even though she had more people, it was like hitting a rock with an egg against a rock. It seemed that she had no choice but to let them go.

At this critical moment, Luo Tian arrived with his troops. They drove a flying car and landed between MiG and Roger, guarding the dividing line tightly.

The soldiers, each holding weapons and shields and wearing armor, confronted the MiG spacecraft. Luo Tian pulled Martha into the car and retreated to the back to protect her safety.

MiG did not dare to delay and pressed the launch button again, and the laser shot towards the soldiers. Because the laser was very fast, there was no time to dodge, and it hit the armor and protective shield directly.
