Chapter 17: What Have You Saved?
"Help!"
"Help!"
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
"You are not qualified to decide our life and death, no!"
Three months later, the universe, the Centaur Cluster, the planet Kalmar. The peace and tranquility of this planet, which had been isolated for a long time, was forcibly shattered today by the army from Zetari.
The roar of artillery fire and the undaunted Swiss soldiers of Zeta crumbled Karma's planetary defenses. Under the order of The Other, the Zetarians, who did not have the option of retreating in their minds, used the endless crowd tactics to make the Karma people who should have a strong style feel a little afraid in their hearts.
"Be quiet for me, or you won't be able to survive even half of you!"
After assembling the troops that had stepped into Karma, The Other glared viciously at the group of Karma stars, who were generally more than two meters tall, and a bloody smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Some people are still whispering and scolding, others are sobbing with their eyes lowered, but no one stands up and chooses to surrender.
The war can be lost, but the backbone of Karma cannot be lost, this is the belief that has been deeply imprinted in the bones of every Kalmar star, and no one can shake it.
"Who the hell are you?"
A patriarch of the Kalmar Star Senate looked at the group of invaders in front of him whose average height was not as good as that of the young people of Karma Star, buried his hatred in his heart, and asked in a low voice.
They are still confused.
They were still thinking about how to ensure the recycling of certain resources on the planet in the future, and as a result, this group of hideous, skinny invaders surrounded their planet with a huge space fleet.
It's just inexplicable, could it be that they ran into the legendary interstellar pirate?
If it's really a space pirate, then it's really more troublesome.
Several elders of the Senate glanced at each other, and they were all a little helpless in their hearts. Who made them inferior to others?
The weaponry was completely incomparable to the previous group of invaders, and they had no way to deal with it by suppressing them with pure firepower, not to mention that the Zetarians didn't know what fear was, and the ability to self-detonate was enough to terrify the Karma people who had not experienced a space war for generations.
"We are the Zetarians from Zitari, belonging to the Sons of the Great Titans, Beckett."
Hearing this, The Other paced slowly and methodically in front of the Kalmar Star Patriarch who was at the decision-making level, and smiled and showed his incomparably penetrating teeth:
"Our mission is to save the planet within this universe."
"And you are the first to be saved by us."
"It's your pleasure."
"Hah, phew!"
As soon as he finished speaking, The Other had a mouthful of spit on his face.
The automatic cleaning system of the tech armor activated, sweeping away the dust from The Other's face, but it couldn't sweep away the anger and humiliation surging in his heart.
He is the dignified head of the Zetari army, when has he ever suffered such a grievance when he is so old.
"Do you see this currency clearly? Face up, you live; Tails up, you die. ”
The Other, who was carrying the currency with him, was just about to use his ability to cheat, but the sound of a battleship landing suddenly sounded above his head.
Looking up, the main ship belonging to Beckett was already close in front of him.
At the moment, The Other doesn't care about what odds to play.
Without saying a word, he knelt on one knee and leaned forward. His right hand rested on his left shoulder, his expression was extremely respectful, his mouth was full of words, and his voice was passionate:
"Descendant of the Great Titans, Lord of Zetari, Thanos and son of Thanos, Beckett, revered by all!"
"This crowded planet will be liberated and redeemed under your hands!"
Dressed in silver armor, Beckett stepped down from the autonomous ship, and slowly walked in front of all the Kalmar people in the square amid the very dog-legged congratulations of The Other.
The cold gaze made a chill inexplicably rise in the hearts of all the Karma stars who came into contact with his sight, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Beckett again, even for a second.
"Are they all under control?"
"It's completely under the control of our men, Your Highness Beckett." The Other, who stood up from the ground, respectfully reported his results to Beckett.
Thanks to the special body structure of the Zetarians who are half-machine, half-creatures, The Other only needs a single thought to know the status of all the ZetarSwiss soldiers on this planet.
And as far as the feedback is concerned, everything is as expected.
"Let's go."
Sweeping his gaze over the two groups of Kalmar stars in front of him, Beckett turned his back and waved his hand like his adoptive father Thanos did back then, and began the "Planet Redemption".
Anger and wailing, screaming and despair, instantly became the main theme of the huge square, lingering in the clear blue sky of Kalmar, and never dissipated.
"No !!!"
"Stop!!!"
"You executioners!!!
Anger beneath countless griefs. Mixed with universal insults sent into Beckett's ear sockets.
Beckett turned and faced the square, where only corpses remained. This is just the tip of the iceberg of Kalmar's tragic state. None of the Kalmars who were randomly placed on the side of death escaped death.
"That's what you're talking about salvation?!"
"What are you kidding!!"
After the mission was completed, the Kalmar people, who were no longer bound by the Zeta Swiss soldiers, held the corpses of their loved ones in their arms and glared angrily at Beckett on the steps.
What's more, driven by extreme anger, he completely got rid of the fear of Beckett's cold gaze and rushed straight in front of him!
"You executioners!!
An iron fist mixed with anger slammed into Beckett's grim face. The latter did not dodge or dodge, but just raised his right hand and raised his index finger, and the angry iron fist could no longer advance an inch!
"Look at the dead people on this planet! Look at the buildings on this planet that you've destroyed! ”
"Save, save, tell me, what the hell have you saved?!"
"Saved the future of your planet." Beckett's face was expressionless.
This kind of expression was seen a lot when he was still by Thanos' side. But in the end, these people will accept the pain, bury the past, and finally lead the planet on a new path of development.
"Future?"
"What if you kill the future of our planet?!"
"Who do you think it is?! A god on high?! No, you are nothing! You are just tyrannical butchers, just a bunch of self-righteous perpetrators! ”
"Our future should be in our own hands, not in the hands of the self-righteous butchers of you people!"
"You never, never can replace the rules - uh......"
The angry questioning came to an abrupt end, and the bright red tail pierced directly into the chest of the Kalmar star in front of Beckett's eyes.
"The wailing of the defeated dog, the verbosity."
The tail flung the corpse of the Kalmar directly to the bottom of the steps, and Beckett's cold gaze swept over the crowd that was instantly silent, and turned to leave.
He doesn't care if he saves or not, this is his adoptive father's ideal, and he is helping his adoptive father realize his ideal. After all, Beckett really can't see any hope of realizing his ideals.
