The main star Messiah.
Owen, a shareholder of Tree of Life, paced anxiously in front of a closed door.
"I told you that bug is unreliable! He's so jumpy! He's such a fool!"
Garnier's casual voice came from the other end of the terminal: "You are too nervous, Duke Owen."
"You have no idea what he did!"
Owen was furious.
"Just now, my men intercepted a video from the Starnet, which was broadcast from an IP address on White Sand Planet. A mecha appeared in the desert area and indiscriminately attacked the civilians! The image is blurry, but I saw it, it's that guy!"
"Pei Li has already contacted the Star Network to completely block the news. He must have noticed that idiot!"
"If he really gets caught, both me, who introduced him, and you, who primarily collaborated with him, will be held responsible!"
Garnier chuckled. "What does it have to do with me? I'm just an innocent person working with the merchant introduced by the lord."
"It's you."
Garnier changed the subject and his laughter became strange.
"Duke Owen, who introduced him, might have some connection."
"You!" Owen was so angry that he was shaking all over.
A mere baron from a remote planet actually dared to speak to him in such a tone. If they weren't on the same page...
His face, distorted by anger, twitched unnaturally, Owen's chest heaved, and he coughed violently twice unexpectedly.
"Are you all right, Duke Owen?"
Garnier asked casually.
"Don't get yourself into trouble because of a clown."
"Wait until Pei Li finds out about you before you say this!"
Owen took a deep breath, and a slight grinding sound came out from the corner of his mouth.
I have been feeling unwell recently. Not only am I often irritable, but my appetite has also decreased. It's time to call a private doctor to see me.
The thought flashed through his mind, and Owen calmed down.
We still don’t know what Lingyu has done, but we must protect ourselves no matter what.
The tightly closed door opened at this moment, and a man dressed as a butler came out and gestured to Owen to come in.
Owen stepped into the room.
There was a figure in a white military uniform sitting at the long table. When he saw Owen come in, he gracefully gestured for him to sit opposite him.
A holographic image of Garnier appeared in the other empty seat.
A tall silhouette appeared halfway on the suspended light screen facing the long table. The person in the light screen had his back to the room. After the door closed, he asked, "Didn't we inform you of the Lingyu operation?"
"He never informed us of his actions."
Garnier didn't care.
"Apart from orders from Eden, he acts almost entirely based on his own interests."
"I got something from Shen Que before, and the young lord has been chasing after him. Even business in the market is difficult to do."
"Don't trust any of the Zerg! These short-sighted and inferior creatures never know how to control their desires!" Owen said harshly.
"But he doesn't seem to have fallen into Pei Ji's hands yet." Ganil added.
The man in white uniform suddenly laughed: "He will definitely fall into Pei Ji's hands."
"Why do you say that?" Owen asked nervously.
The man looked at him, his deep eyes cold and dull.
"Do you think the nickname Zerg Slayer is for nothing?"
The person in the light curtain was silent for a while.
"No matter what Lingyu does, since you haven't been exposed yet, don't take any action yet."
His voice was gentle and powerful, without any deliberate disguise, and he exuded a noble and calm demeanor from the inside out.
"The matter on Baisha Star is almost complete. Once the mechas are manufactured, we will arrange for evacuation."
"I will communicate with the Zerg, but..."
The man paused.
"There's one thing I hope you can do for me."
He didn't mention anyone in particular, but Garnier tactfully said, "Go ahead."
The person behind the light curtain glanced sideways and uttered four words.
"Kill Shen Que."
The room fell silent for a moment.
After a few seconds, the figure in military uniform slowly spoke: "Isn't he already useless?"
Owen also said: "And he has left the Messiah."
"That's right." said the person on the screen.
He still remembers seeing Shen Que's despairing look through the ward glass.
His cold and noble face was thin and pale, and he looked withered, as if he would die at any time.
No, he was already dead at that time.
It should be an interesting story that a favored child of heaven falls from the altar and is humiliated and trampled upon like garbage.
But now, the story is wrong.
Words without a trace of warmth came over at an icy frequency.
"I originally thought that crippling him would be enough, but then I thought... no."
The man smiled slightly.
"It's better for him to be dead."
…
Baisha Star, the heart of the desert.
Lingyu hid deep in a secret abandoned mine, his mind tense and his fingertips white.
Why……
Why why why?!
Why can Pei Ji's mental power accurately capture him wherever he goes!
She had been distracting him and even summoned desert worms!
Lingyu kicked the wall.
He felt like a tiny insect trapped in a cage, and Pei Ji's mental power was the indestructible steel cage.
Fear and anger seethed in every cell simultaneously.
Suddenly, a chill crept over my heart.
Lingyu felt the air around him solidify again, and the uncontrollable horror made his heart beat faster.
The sound of military boots hitting the ground echoed in the empty tunnel.
