Chapter 32: The Imperial Guard
The leaves are rustling, and the fine sunlight shines through the layers of leaves, mottled on the bluestone road. On both sides, a magnolia-shaped combination lamp exudes a shallow glow.
Da Da, the roots of the shoes knocked on the ground, and there was an unusually crisp sound of footsteps, Xu Wanling, who was walking on the boulevard, put her fingers together, and was still muttering quietly:
"It's so annoying, it feels like it's prepared, are you a philosopher, you have to talk so deeply, I'm actually... I involuntarily fell into it......"
The tone was full of resentment and grievance, and as for who she was muttering, it was obviously self-evident.
Crackling, a small pebble was kicked away unconsciously, Xu Wanling suddenly stopped her steps, swept behind her nervously, and after noticing that there was no one around, she raised her fist with "teeth and claws........
"I'm looking for a chance to see with my own eyes how you do in class, huh, really, deliberately embarrassing me. It's been so cold since we met on the starship, like a rock, nasty! β
For creatures like women, it seems that grudges are innate, and regardless of the cause, they will automatically transfer their resentment, which has nothing to do with kindness.
The warm wind blows on the face, cool, with a little sunshine and the fragrance of leaves. On the bluestone-paved path, the gentle shadow gradually faded away, and the light footsteps slowly drifted into the shade of the trees......

(Ponton's System β Western White Planet)
Located on the border of the Xingluo Empire and the Federation, a native planet (in 2837 AD, the interstellar explorer Jankos marked this planet and divided the surface into five source areas, namely forest, gold, sea, glacier, and barren, and the source terrain is a tropical rainforest in its original form, except for the sea source area, the exploration spacecraft has not found any signs of the existence of intelligent organisms), the so-called native planet is an undeveloped natural state, without artificial nuclear energy and electrical pollution. However, due to the lack of star orbit and signal base stations, even Tianxun cannot be used here.
In the center of the West White Star Senyuan, a seriously injured man was struggling to shuttle through the jungle, the dead leaves that had accumulated over the years were knee-deep, and the man could only step forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the simple bandaged wounds had to leak blood from time to time, and many places on his coat had already been soaked with blood.
His right hand clutched his lower abdomen as he traveled, and when the ship crashed, the shredded hatch accidentally opened his lower abdomen, nearly cutting him in half. It's an absolute miracle that we've survived such a severe injury and have been able to hold on until now.
Poof~ A red dot the size of a grain of rice was imprinted on the man's back, and with the faint sound of gunshots, a blood flower suddenly bloomed. The kinetic energy carried by the bullet brutally knocked the man to the ground, half of his body buried in the dead leaves.
Snort-snort, the sound of large soles crushing dead leaves approached, and a few seconds later, seven "men in black" wearing coarse cloth cloaks approached the man, all but one of whom was holding a long black sniper, the other six were carrying double knives.
"-uh-uh..."
The man who had already taken in more air and less breath trembled slightly, his bloodshot eyes were full of unwillingness and despair, and the man in black led by him lifted his hood, revealing a dark black metal face armor, delicate and hideous.
The black-clothed man at the head stretched out his hand, grabbed the back of the man's neck and lifted him up, perhaps because of the serious blood loss, the man couldn't even subconsciously struggle.
"At this level of injury, there is no possibility of treatment, while the cell activity is still there, compare the DNA data first."
With a hoarse and mocking voice, as piercing as a broken fan, another man in black stepped forward respectfully, took out a palm-sized metal instrument, and used a sharp blade to cut the artery of the man's hand.
"Seventeen percent match, not the goal, Lord Scorpion, we missed."
"Bad luck, after so many days of chasing in vain, the falcon really picked up ready-made there."
The subordinates were all a little depressed, except for the man who was called the scorpion, who didn't have much mood swings.
"The high-ranking agents of the Federation are not so easy to catch, such a miscellaneous fish, heh.... Inform Her Highness that Target Six has been cleared. β
"Yes!"
Poof, the scorpion threw it casually, and the man's body fell into the distance like a broken sack, and from beginning to end, no one looked at the man's painful face.
Accompanied by a gloomy laughter, such a "demon" who was even stained with evil intentions on his back returned the same way.
Overhead, the line of sight passed through the countless wide canopies, and the swarthy shuttle ships sprayed particles through the sky.......
The Red Dragon Star of the Xingluo Empire - Forbidden Palace - Wang Palace -
Under the dragon seat, a man and a woman are separated on both sides, and the lord of the country, Su Hong, has not been in charge for ten years, and all state affairs are in the hands of the prince and the princess.
The crown prince Su Yi is in charge of the imperial dragon guard and 70% of the army, and the princess Su Yin controls the imperial secret guard and 60% of the finances.
It seems that the power of the princess is not comparable to that of the prince, but in fact, the princess's methods are more ruthless than the prince, and the deterrent power spreads throughout the country. Moreover, there are three first-class dukes standing behind the princess, all of whom are powerful figures.
In the empty hall, two guards in armor suddenly entered, each holding a confidential document and presenting it to his lord.
"Yo yo, the scorpion still missed, third sister, it seems that your luck is not good."
The crown prince Su Yi, who was dressed in a python suit, hurriedly swept the words, and then looked at his sister gloatingly.
"The Blood Eagle will settle everything, and even if it is killed in the federal territory, it will definitely take back the secrets."
The princess, who was in good shape and wearing a thin veil, did not have any change in her expression, and she did not even blink her eyes in the face of the prince's sarcasm.
"Third sister, I need to remind you that the empire and the federation have just ceased war, and for at least five years, both sides must maintain a peaceful situation. Otherwise, those lowly people and barbarians will have crooked minds. β
Su Yi's eyebrows revealed a hint of warning, the princess's methods were occasionally a little extreme, although it was his own sister, he hated to kill the other party.
Similarly, I believe that in the heart of the princess, she also wants to kill herself in every possible way.
"You don't know how expensive it is to decipher the technology of relics! I can't tolerate those confidential materials being stolen by a few rats of the Federation, tell Blood Eagle that you can't get the information back, come and see you! β
The princess's right hand squeezed fiercely, and the top-secret document suddenly burst into flames. glared at the prince coldly, and the princess walked directly out of the hall.
Prince Su Yi yawned casually, and a trace of coldness flashed in his seemingly lazy eyes. He had a two-inch piece of paper in his finger, and that was what worried him the most at the moment compared to the theft of information:
- The Lord...... Uncharted ...... I don't know ...... life and deathββ
"Alas, there is a lack of courage and wisdom, which is simply a common problem of women! Bad old man, do you have a letter in the end, the wind and clouds are gathering, and many people can't hold it anymore......"
Su Yi took a deep breath and bowed his head slightly, and his originally scattered gaze gradually condensed. Half an hour later, when he raised his head, his black and white eyes were as deep as stars.
