Chapter 4: Ambush
Now, it was the turn of Li You Ralz to be stared at by countless eyes, and the scene was silent, and just as everyone was waiting for him to say something, the silence of the venue was broken by an abrupt word.
"Vena Edla, I remember that your father Gray has just died, why don't you pay your respects? At a young age, he was so disrespectful to his deceased father. Look at the beauty you were born in, but you are not married! It's not okay to have no father so early, no one to take care of you, if you don't think about marrying me, I will definitely love you well! Hahaha! Everyone followed the prestige, and it was a short fat man who spoke, with a ruddy face, and spoke with a strong smell of alcohol, and it was hard to imagine that he had drunk a lot of wine before the meeting on such a formal occasion of the alliance. This small fat man is the ruler of the Birac system, Edward I, the Birac system is a trade-oriented galaxy, inhabited by the dwarven race, the dwarves regard wealth as their life, and all the wars in the galaxy are launched for the glittering gold coins.
Hearing this, Auston on the side shouted, "Hugh is rude to our Queen Vena! He was about to go up and teach the Humpty Dumpty a lesson, but was stopped by Vina.
Humpty Dumpty Edward didn't give up, and continued: "Hey, the world is going down, I see that you people are all groundless! Why has my Birac system never been attacked by GY, I think you are all lying, asking me for supplies all day long, in the name of fighting the enemy together, I guess, you just co-authored a story to squeeze my money! β
As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly exploded, all the people were furious, and the forces of Humpty Dumpty's camp also joined the quarrel, Vena saw this scene, and took a deep look at Li You Rouerz, it was obvious that this Humpty Dumpty who suddenly jumped out to stir up the situation must be his cronies, and what Vina said just now was completely left behind by others, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Vina was about to speak again, but Auston behind her pulled her.
"Your Majesty, we have no evidence, and if it continues, I'm afraid the situation will be difficult to control."
Vena snorted, how could she not understand this truth, it was still difficult for Hanina to protect herself now, it was naturally not a wise move to go toe-to-toe with the high-ranking deputy speaker of the alliance in the parliament, and what she said just now was just an inference, and there was no actual evidence at all.
But...... She just can't swallow this breath!
The hall was getting more and more chaotic, and Edward, who had caused the commotion, leaned back in his chair with a comfortable face, as if the situation had nothing to do with him.
Li You Ralz had no intention of stopping this kind of scene at all, allowing the scene to gradually get out of control, Vina's eyes were always staring at him, it would be fine if he said something, but this kind of behavior made Vina inexplicably a little uneasy.
Just when the uneasiness in Vina's heart became more and more intense, a mutation protruded! A huge explosion came from outside the venue, and I don't know who shouted "There is an assassin", and the noisy venue suddenly screamed and was in chaos.
Auston reacted quickly, and the moment the explosion sounded, he took Vina in his arms and pulled her towards the wall. The venue was in chaos, the sound of gunfire mixed with screams was endless, and everyone rushed towards the gate in a panic, crowded and trampled on people, so there was still half the demeanor of the king of each galaxy?
The explosions were incessant, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer, and Auston saw the opportunity to knock over four or five people, covering Vina's rapid withdrawal from the gap in the crowd towards the outside of the venue.
Just as Vina was about to rush out of the hall, she turned back sharply in the middle of the panicked crowd, and saw Li You Ralz still sitting calmly on the chair of the round table of the conference, staring at herself with a gaze as cold as ice for eternity.
Out of the convention center, the square was already full of corpses, everywhere was scattered and fleeing crowds, the convoys of each galaxy were fighting separately, completely unorganized, but the attackers were obviously prepared, long-range strikes, melee assaults, heavy weapons support, all parts echoed each other from afar, and the scene was completely one-sided slaughter.
Auston escorted Vina to a hidden corner, and the fifty-man guard had received an order from Auston not to join the chaos at the beginning of the attack, and to retreat to the door of the council court to meet them.
The two sides converged, and the guards immediately formed a defensive formation to guard the two of them, and Auston said loudly: "Your Majesty, we have to quickly notify the carrier ship that is staying in orbit to meet us, this has become a battlefield!" With that, he opened the interstellar navigation panel and prepared to call for the evacuation of the spacecraft, only to find that no matter how he operated, the screen was only displayed.
βSignal Lostβ
Vena sighed and said, "There's no need, this is just a planned ambush, presumably all the battleships staying in orbit are now under control." I'm afraid this is not GY's attack, they have always attacked head-on, and they will not engage in such assassinations. β
Auston was silent, how could he, an imperial general who had been fighting for decades, not think of this, but he couldn't give up if he didn't try.
Vina turned her head to look at the council center, where gunfire erupted and flames erupted. The alliance has already existed in name only, and the next thing is up to them!
"The communication signal here has been cut off, and we are now completely isolated from the outside world by the enemy!" The captain of the guard said.
Vina looked around, how could a team of 50 people with only 50 people around her, except for Bill Auston, escape from Ascension in such a chaotic situation?
She pondered for a while, and then said to everyone: "Now is the moment of life and death, we have lost contact with the outside world now, but this signal interference is certainly not able to cover the entire planet, and the only way out is to fight a bloody way and escape to a place where we can call for help!" - General Auston! β
"Yes!" Auston taps lightly on the tactical communicator on his arm, and a star map appears out of thin air, and signal interference can block the communicator's two-way communication without affecting its own surface scanning function.
"Since the enemy is a premeditated ambush, this signal jamming center must be near this council, and we can only get out of the signal jamming area and get in touch with Havena's home planet if we continue to follow a route."
Vena took a closer look at the star map and said to everyone, "Okay, let's strike from the south!" There is a dense forest in the south, which is suitable for ships to land and is not easy to be detected by the enemy, soldiers, I cannot guarantee that you will all return alive, but I can guarantee that each of you will go down in history for your heroic battles, your efforts for peace, and your belief in protecting your homeland. β
"Life must fight! No regrets in dying! Fifty neat voices converged into a powerful force.
After the plan was agreed, Auston looked out the window, and the crowd was still fleeing in all directions, and people in black metal suits were slaughtering frantically on the battlefield, their faces wrapped in a black mask with a scarlet glow shining on their eyes.
Auston walked to the door and looked back to see the soldiers of the convoy in full gear, enclosing Vina in the center, forming a circular protective circle.
"Protect the Queen, evacuate to the south!" After Auston gave the order, he forcefully pulled the door open. Everyone rushed out in an instant, moving quickly.
The group that suddenly appeared immediately became a new target! More than a dozen laser beams hit them in an instant, and Auston burst into a roar, ripped off the thick metal gate, and threw it in the direction of the enemy! The beam struck the metal gate, instantly leaving behind black holes that emitted high temperatures.
"There is an enemy 500m to the southeast, move to the right front! Full fire! β
As soon as Auston gave the order, the two sides began to exchange fire violently, and in an instant three of the guards were shot and fell, but then the rest of the team filled their empty seats, and the team always maintained a standard circle, guarding Vina in the center.
The size of fifty men was a very obvious target in the chaotic square, and more and more enemies were coming towards them, and Auston could not help but urge the speed of the march, and most of the fire was concentrated on the enemy directly in front of him, while a large number of enemies were gathered behind and on both sides.
Auston was anxious, he was rushing for time, if he couldn't rush out in one go, once the enemy completed the encirclement, whether they were defending or barely breaking through, it would be a dead end.
Vina was in the center of the group, watching her team fall one by one, feeling more and more uncomfortable, she knew that this breakout formation was all about ensuring that she was 100% unattacked, and without this scruples, they could have avoided these unnecessary casualties.
Vina was unsettled, her feet slipped and she almost fell, the formation suddenly became a mess, and the battlefield was racing against time, and in this short moment, several black-armored soldiers had quickly approached from the right side.
Auston rolled over, protected Vina with his back, and instantly pulled out the particle pistol on his waist, his eyes swept away, and he instantly saw the location of the three black-armored soldiers, but the other party had already aimed the muzzle at him!
Auston fired three shots in a row, aiming at the opponent's eyebrows, but the opponent also aimed at him, and the muzzle of the gun erupted into a burst of intense blue light!
At this critical moment, Auston's right wrist armor holding the gun suddenly slowed down, and the laser beam flew past Auston's face, and the scorching air bent a strand of hair on his sideburns, and the three lasers were actually narrowly avoided by him!
The space-time anomaly lasted only a brief moment before returning to normal, and Auston missed a bullet and three enemies fell to the ground.
Drawing the gun, aiming, shooting, and dodging, this process only lasted less than two seconds in the eyes of others, but in Auston's perception it was a full ten seconds. Time freeze is Auston's stunt, and it takes Hanina's cutting-edge technology and his own talent to achieve this last-come, first-come, first-come, unexpected effect.
Auston resolved the crisis and quickly pulled Vena up behind him, and the team continued to maintain a circle formation and move forward rapidly.
"The taboo of the battlefield, you must devote yourself wholeheartedly to the battlefield, otherwise you will not only harm yourself! It will also cause the death of your comrades! Your Majesty, you must keep this in mind! β
Vina felt guilty that the soldiers around her fought bloodily to protect her, but she was distracted at a critical moment and almost killed everyone.
The further out the siege became, the enemy's strength was slowly decreasing, and the offensive was weakening, and it was now on the edge of the walls of the Alliance Council, and further on was the Allied Holy City district.
After passing through the once bustling streets, all that remained was broken walls, everyone was on high alert, the breeze blew, there was actually a trace of warmth, but this did not make people feel a trace of comfort, Alston counted the remaining people, and after this transfer, the escort of fifty people was still thirty-eight people.
The air was getting hotter and hotter, and Auston was always looking around, he had a bad premonition in his heart, and he didn't know why he always felt that something was wrong, and the particle pistol on his waist was ready to be drawn and shot at any time.
