“Boss, Xia Zuo’s spaceship is here.
In an ordinary cargo spaceship, dozens of men dressed as laborers gathered together. They were watching the route displayed on the screen. Chen An's spaceship was on the way.
The pirate leader said in a deep voice, "Xia Zuo is at level four, but once he enters the trap, he will be restricted. We must seize the opportunity to attack and not give him time to counterattack. Move!"
The crowd dispersed and headed to the bottom cabin to drive the shuttle away.
Their shuttles carry special weapons and will cooperate with the spacecraft to launch the attack.
And there is more than one spaceship, there are several more lying in ambush on the opposite side.
Everyone held their breath and watched the target spacecraft fall into the trap and gradually lose power.
"attack!"
After the order was given, hundreds of shuttles poured fire on the spacecraft on the route.
It uses electromagnetic weapons, which not only destroy the power of the spacecraft but also pose a threat to the movement of the people inside.
However, the real trap is the limiter hidden near the waterway, which can perfectly limit the power of the extraordinary people in a short period of time.
Seeing the spaceship being torn into pieces by the concentrated fire and thick smoke rising, the pirate leader breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's a success. We'll split up and hide from each other. As long as we can survive the raid, we can leave."
However, he did not know that smoke does no harm.
Chen An was hanging in the shattered spaceship, unharmed.
"Are you using the same kind of limiter that the Ministry of Supervision uses?"
[Improved and upgraded version, with better results. But if you know in advance, you can be prepared.]
This type of limiter was originally an official secret product, but there is no wall that is impenetrable, and it has long been spread among the people and has become a powerful tool to restrict extraordinary people.
[Reminder to the master: the pirates are preparing to escape separately]
call out!
Chen An shot like a laser beam at the spaceship on the left side of the channel, because he knew that the other boss was there.
The pirates on the spaceship thought their ambush was successful and were imagining how to spend the large sum of money they got.
But suddenly, the spacecraft gave an attack warning.
Before the warning was over, an explosion was heard and the spacecraft began to shake violently.
Bang!
The spaceship cabin cracked open and Chen An appeared in front of everyone.
"Who ordered this?"
At this moment, the pirates were collectively shocked.
Under the multiple restrictions, a quadruple star crosser would be seriously injured even if he didn't die. There is no way he could be unscathed.
"He is Xia Zuo, come on!"
The pirate leader gave the order to attack, but he himself hid in the back, looking for a chance to escape.
The strongest in the entire pirate organization is only at the third level, otherwise they wouldn't have set up an ambush.
Chen An knew their background. He rushed over like a flash of lightning, kicked the pirate leader to the ground, and then stepped on him.
At this time, the Liuguang Group's spacecraft returned and the nearby patrol team also rushed over.
"Minister Xia, are you okay?"
Chen An used the communicator to convey the order: "There are several more spaceships, control them all."
Not only the Liuguang Group and the patrol team came to help, but even the garrison was alarmed by this matter.
Is it okay for Minister Xia to be attacked?
Several frigates carried out emergency missions, blocking all waterways and approaching the surface.
Chen An did not kill anyone and handed all the pirates over to the garrison.
Ten minutes later, the news of Minister Xia's assassination became a hot topic, spreading like a storm and causing a huge sensation.
Communications from all sides came in one after another.
Zhou Yao: "Are you okay? I've already ordered the blockade of all starports."
Chen An: "I'm fine. All the pirates have been captured."
Zhou Yao: "How could any pirate dare to come to Tianwu Continent? There must be someone instructing them. I will handle this matter. You go home and rest."
On the way back to the villa, even Jiang Li called.
"The garrison's preliminary investigation revealed that the limiter used was a military-strengthened model, and civilians couldn't possibly have that level of strength. Your survival was entirely due to luck. Don't worry, we'll get to the bottom of this matter."
Chen An expressed his gratitude but didn't really care.
[Through investigation of the Star Pirates account, the source can be traced back to a company called Baiyao]
Chen An smiled and said, "This is very obvious. Because of my fame in the past two years, Yu Hong can't sit still anymore. It doesn't matter. I also dislike the slow progress, so I'll take this opportunity to speed it up."
As they were talking, they returned to the villa. Fei Yi Qianqiu and other women surrounded him, wanting to give Chen An a full body check from the outside to the inside.
"Brother, are you sure you're okay?" Fei Yi asked worriedly.
Chen An rolled his eyes at her.
"Can I come back if something happens? Don't worry, with Fuyao here, no ambush can hide."
The key is the absolute protection of the train, which allows Chen An to confidently step into any dangerous situation.
"Okay, okay, it's okay, everything will be the same as before."
In the next few days, Chen An did not go to the Ministry of Science and Technology, but instead gave remote commands at home.
The Tianwu Continent is in chaos.
The garrison, the Supervisory Department, and the Ministry of Justice are investigating the matter together, starting from the space pirates and digging up to Baiyao Company, involving thousands of people.
But who is in control behind Baiyao has become the key to the game among multiple parties.
Chen An watched it for fun and found it quite interesting.
It was precisely because Chen An was assassinated that many contradictions between the two camps were gradually exposed.
Chen An didn't care about all this. After a good rest, he went back to work as usual and concentrated on researching the technology needed for the train.
Thanks to his position as minister, Chen An strictly summarized and classified the scientists in the entire Star Palace.
Fuyao knows exactly which ones are really needed and which ones are just rubbish.
"I've pretty much figured out the Ministry of Science and Technology. It would be great if I could switch departments."
Chen An was just thinking about it, because the situation became more and more complicated, even to the point where both sides were trying to assassinate each other.
Yu Hong sent someone to assassinate Chen An, which was a good start. Half a month later, Zhou Yao returned the favor by using the same method to assassinate the Deputy Minister of Energy.
Not everyone has the ability like Chen An. The deputy minister's sudden death on the street once again caused a sensation across the planet.
As a result, the leaders of both sides felt insecure and had to bring sufficient guards with them when traveling, and the communication between the two sides became less and less.
But the problem is, if there is a lack of communication between the major departments, it will inevitably lead to a decrease in the overall efficiency of Xinggong and more and more troubles.
Chen An saw all of this.
"Brother, why doesn't the Palace Master intervene?" Fei Yi asked.
Chen An said: "Jiang Li can't take care of it. He is busy taking care of himself."
Two days later, a notice spread, causing a sensation far greater than Chen An's assassination.
On September 18, 179th year of the Recovery Calendar, Jiang Li officially announced his physical condition and decided to step down after six months.
There are three candidates for the new palace master, namely Zhou Yao, Yu Hong and Xia Zuo.
Jiang Li will evaluate the three based on their performance.
Choosing the Palace Master is not just a matter of Jiang Li saying a word, but requires voting.
The governors and star lords of each department and each star region have the right to vote.
The palace master's authority is only to nominate candidates.
The turbulent situation continued to be chaotic, and many people were surprised as to why Jiang Li chose Xia Zuo.
However, before all kinds of contradictions could rush towards him.
Chen An issued a statement first, saying that he felt he was not qualified enough and withdrew from the candidacy for Palace Master.
