Chapter 24: Escape from the Fortress (Part II)

The Nightmare Star Field, the core territory of the Gambino royal court.

In the center of the star field, around a huge purple-red star, more than 20 planets of different sizes orbit quietly.

This is an extremely prosperous star field, which can be seen from the large fleets that can be seen everywhere in the void. On the surface of the planet, there are countless magnificent cities, all kinds of strange shapes, with a strong foreign civilization style super buildings towering into the clouds, some even stretching all the way to outer space!

Dense swarms of small and medium-sized spacecraft like locusts are constantly coming and going in the atmosphere, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "covering the sky and the sun".

In the orbit closest to the giant star, there is a purple planet with a diameter of more than 5,000 kilometers, which is the station of the Supreme Council of Elders of the Royal Court and the core center of the Gambino Temple.

The entire surface of the planet is almost devoid of grass, and is covered by a strange crystal with a faint red light in a deep purple, which is an extremely rare shaped crystal "Siro mica", with a high energy storage index per unit volume, which can be listed in the top ten at least among all the energy crystals in the known Star Ocean Realm, and is one of the rare materials indispensable for building the energy core of advanced energy equipment. The selling price in the empire itself is not less than 100,000 energy points per 100 grams!

Such precious crystals can be found everywhere on this planet. And every certain distance, you will see a strange stone tower up to a kilometer high, all of which are made of a whole piece of Syro mica rock with a length of ten meters and a width of two meters! On the entire surface of the planet, there are thousands of such towers, and most of them are attached to a large number of temples of different styles.

The distance between the planet and the star is extremely close, less than 20 million kilometers, and the high-temperature flame currents, particle storms, and poisonous rays of all kinds and colors on the surface of the star are pouring out like a waterfall, tearing through the not too thick atmosphere, but they have been completely absorbed by those towers and spars, so that the temperature on the surface of the planet is less than 50 degrees Celsius, and even humans who have undergone primary genetic optimization can move freely on the surface, and for the strong Gambino people, this place is no different from heaven.

In the vicinity of the planet's polar regions, at the top of a magnificent giant tower with a radius of thousands of meters and a height of nearly 10,000 meters, it is a luxurious palace, with forty-five giant thrones placed on the central gorgeous spar platform, and the dome at the top of the main hall is inlaid with countless pure and immaculate gem crystals the size of human heads, and the noble and mysterious purple brilliance pours down, bathing the whole hall in the magnificent and dreamy world.

More than a dozen elderly Gambino people sat quietly on the high platform, not saying a word. The pressure of the vast abyssal sea emanated from their bodies, and even the hundreds of kilometers near the tower were calm, and the nearby stellar storm could not affect this place in any way.

They are the members of the Supreme Council of Elders of the royal court, at the top of the pyramid of Gambino civilization, who hold great power and can decide the life and death of hundreds of millions of people with a single thought!

At this time, in the very center of the high platform, in a half-meter-thick pillar of pale red light, a fist-sized milky white sphere was suspended, emitting a glowing halo. The eyes of all the elders fell on it, and their expressions were extremely complicated.

It was a letter for help sent back by the Grand Commander of Sagusnoch, who raided the Anthropocene realm, half a day ago. It is hoped that the royal court will be able to unite and send troops to repel the imperial legions that are in hot pursuit.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think ......" After a long silence, one of the elders finally tentatively asked:

"How should this be handled? Do you want to ......?"

"Do you want to send troops?" The other elder lifted the thick golden scepter in his hand, paused slightly, and said lightly:

"Signing an alliance with foreign races without our permission, betraying the interests of our own race, and sending troops to attack the Anthropocene realm without our permission, as a result, angered the Chinese Empire and caused such an unending situation, so I thought of begging us to take action and settle this mess for it, hum! It's calculating! ”

Another elder spoke: "Honorable Highness Timnart, you can't say that, after all, Sagusnoch is one of the most outstanding powerhouses among the new generation of tribal leaders of our race, and it carries the hope of rejuvenation of our race, if it falls into the hands of humans like this, it will be too big a blow to our race, so ......"

Timnart glanced at it coldly and said, "Honorable Highness Kirklar, the deity can understand your feelings, as an elder who is also from the Longiroyan tribe, naturally he can't bear to see his direct bloodline fall. ”

"But you must understand that the interests of the royal court must be higher than the interests of a certain tribe! As members of the Council of Elders, we should always look out for the overall interests of the Gambino family! ”

Kirklaal stopped a little embarrassed, looked at the elder sitting in the middle, and plucked up his courage and said, "Your Highness Ronktaunos, do you think so too?" ”

Ronktaunos did not reply, and one of the elders beside him spoke:

"The Grand Commander of Sagusnoch is indeed one of the rare geniuses of our clan in recent years, since the previous royal court was defeated by the imperial legions, the new clan king has not been able to appear for a long time, in the final analysis, because there is no strong enough tribal leader to convince all the tribal chiefs of the royal court."

"Originally, with its ability and prestige, it was a strong candidate to inherit the throne of the clan, and we also seriously discussed this possibility at the last royal meeting. If it doesn't make mistakes, it can go through a period of training and make more contributions to our people, and it may be done! ”

"But what it is doing now is to ignore the authority of the entire Council of Supreme Elders, and even the previous clan king has not been so bold and reckless, this is an act of disobedience that must not be tolerated!"

"Yes, ...... must not be tolerated"

"It has betrayed the Gambino ......"

"Punish ...... severely"

The elders echoed each other, and Kirklall sighed gloomily and said no more.

The Great Elder of the Royal Court, Long Ketaonos, looked around, and the eyes of the elders looked at it in unison, how to decide, just wait for it to make a decision.

After thinking for a moment, it slowly asked, "How many fleets did the Imperial side send this time?" ”

"The mobile forces of the entire Northwest Galactic Region have been transferred!" Timnarte replied, "The fleet is between fifteen and twenty legions, and the number of Adeptus legions is unknown!" ”

"So, is there anything unusual on the other side of the Northern Hell system?" The Grand Elder asked again.

Timnarte was a little surprised, but still replied: "According to the information obtained by our intelligence network, the Imperial Army and the legions of the Northern Hell Civilization are still in a stalemate, and there is no possibility of a major change in the coming period!" ”

"Okay, I see!" The Great Elder bowed slightly, looked around, and suddenly asked:

"What do you think is the possibility that the Huaxia Empire will continue to attack the royal court after exterminating the Sagusnoqi Department this time?"

"If they are determined to fight to the end, and there will be another incident at the royal court sixty years ago, how should we deal with it?"

……

"There are a lot of difficult guys coming, everyone pay attention to concealment!"

In the fortress, Xiao Junling led everyone to hide in a small material warehouse, vigilantly observing the surrounding movements.

Along the way, they hunted for several more teams of Gambino warriors, and finally managed to get enough levitating flywheels to move quickly inside the fortress.

Then, it's time for the most important task: to find equipment and ships and wait for the opportunity to leave the fortress.

However, the space inside the fortress is too large, and its layout structure is completely different from that of the Imperial Legion's fortress, even with the help of captured light brain equipment probing, it is not so easy to find a warehouse to store equipment suitable for human use. Xiao Junling had already led everyone to three places, and after many fierce battles, he didn't find what he was looking for.

The tremors from the feet grew louder and louder, and from the images displayed on the light brain, it was clear that many areas of the fortress had been severely damaged, and the entire fortress could disintegrate and collapse at any time.

"Don't panic, there will be hope!" Xiao Junling looked at the anxious looks on everyone's faces, and said calmly:

"Not far in front is another secret warehouse, it looks like the defense level is not low, let's go over and have a look!"

"Hopefully it won't disappoint us this time." Yang Hanqing said with a wry smile.

The spaceship take-off and landing base where the fortress communicates with the outside world is heavily guarded, and it is impossible for them to go there, so they can only look for it in a relatively safe place, and after getting enough equipment and aircraft, they can use the emergency exit to escape. to survive!

If they don't get anything out of it this time, I'm afraid they won't have a chance to leave.

……

"Lord Zochlar, the things have been obtained, shall we go see Lord Demuch now?"

In the distance, a team of levitating flywheels rushed over, and hundreds of Yanyin warriors surrounded Zochral and were hurrying away in panic.

Zochral on the flywheel touched the fine ruby box around his waist, hesitated, took it into his hand, and opened it.

Inside the box are several rings with exquisite workmanship, as well as two black and shiny jade bracelets, with delicate, smooth and silky ancient patterns on the ring, and a faint energy fluctuation emanating from it.

This is a large-capacity space equipment, this time it looted the entire Shayuan Star and its neighboring planets, and the best part of all the loot was hidden inside, and now it has all been brought out.

It thought for a moment, took out a bracelet and slipped it over its paw, then put the rest back on its waist and slung it back to its waist.

"Huh? Wrong! A Yanyin warrior next to him suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong?" Zochral immediately asked vigilantly, and the aura around his body suddenly released out, and then he also discovered the abnormality.

"It looks like there are human reptiles running out, and there are quite a few of them!" It said coldly, instructing the levitating flywheel to slow down.

Suddenly, not far ahead, a strange brilliance containing five-colored essence suddenly appeared, and the target was impressively aimed at it.

Followed by flame streams, ice spikes, magnetic explosions, and force field binding...... There are also countless light blades and light arrows, and all kinds of attacks are flying over!
