Chapter 17: Astoro
At this time, the enemy boss is in the tent.
Tilmatt: [Astoro, how long have we not seen each other?] It's been almost two years. I didn't think you would become a prince, no, you would be a prince again. ]
Thomas: [Prince?] What nonsense are you talking about?! ]
Tilmat: [You don't know.] Astoro is the real prince, and Bakir is nothing more than a substitute for nothingness. ]
Astoro: [What?!] ]
At this time, Ling and them, who were quickly disturbing the enemy outside, were preparing to retreat.
Ling: [The effect of the surprise attack is almost fine, don't go too deep, prepare to retreat.] ]
Kenichi: [Understood!] ]
Haruka: [Wait!] From the beginning of now, there was no way to get in touch with Astoro! What to do?! ]
Ling: [The others retreat first, so let's let the three of us continue to go deeper.] Fanker, Filina, Tyko, prepare to bombard and support the rest of the retreat, and when they retreat, you retreat too! ]
Fanker: [What about you guys?!] ]
Ling: [Let's go find Astoro.] ]
Filina: [but only your words.........]
Tyco: [It's too dangerous, let's go too!] ]
Kenichi: [No, a few of us are enough, if there are too many people, it will be difficult for me to use the Mystery to escape!] ]
Fanker: [Alright, good luck!] ]
Now, except for Ling, Jianyi, and Yao, the rest of the soldiers and spies have begun to retreat. The xenomorph seemed to sense the problem and began to fight back, but was suppressed by the sudden artillery fire.
Kenichi: [Let's gather first.] ]
Haruka: [Let's get to Kenichi.] ]
Kenichi: [Do you know where I am?!] ]
Ling: [Just see where the most exaggerated fight is!] ]
Now, the other side.
Timmatt: [It's an exaggeration outside!] I didn't expect you to have so many troops, although it was a sneak attack, but it also played a certain role.
However, I did take this into account. The current star capital can only gather 1,000-2,000 people at most, most of whom are ordinary people who are untrained. It's just the hundreds of remaining elites in the kingdom who are making trouble. But what! I've got thousands of soldiers on my side!
In order to prevent you from engaging in sneak attacks, I prepared my own elite troops at the beginning. There are about 8,000 of them. If you do a sneak attack and I don't give any orders, they'll automatically be on guard around me. So, no matter what, if you are dealt with now, and then you start attacking tomorrow, you will still lose completely. ]
Thomas: [Leave that aside, but now tell me what Astoro's background is?!] Why is Astro the real prince! ]
Astoro: [Mr. Tilmatt.........]
Tilmatt: [Really, why are you so excited!] Well, I'll tell you. The reason why I want to be the king and leader is to change the planet. This planet, since the beginning of time, humans have despised xenomorphs. Although humans do not say it, they express it in their behavior.
So, when I was still young, I made up my mind to change the planet. So, my first step is to become the king's leader. If it can be done, then at least near the kingdom's capital, there should be a change.
Unfortunately, even when I was in charge, that didn't change. People are always denigrating aliens behind their backs.
Yes, it is true that some of the shapes are not good, but it does not mean that all of them are like this.
Just one day, Astor was born. I was thinking when I looked at the baby with an innocent smile on his face. If the child is born in the emperor's family, then he will inevitably embark on the road of discrimination against aliens in the future.
In order to prevent this, I made a Kronn out of the prince's hair and swapped it with Astoro.
However, I didn't expect that 10 years later, I met Astro again near the star capital. ]
Astoro: [At that time, I was grateful to you.] Because you taught me how to survive, and you made me feel at home for the first time. ]
Tilmat: [However, the reality is cruel. I don't know how you became a prince, but maybe it's fate. I'm sorry, but I had to kill you, Astoro. Can you do anything to me?! ]
Astoro: [...... I...]
Thomas: [I see, I'll just say Astoro, you're the real prince.] Hearing this, at least I felt a little comforted. After all, how could a real prince be like Bakir! So, if you can't make a move, then leave it to me next, you go and join Ling and them, and then retreat. ]
Thomas drew his knife and walked over to Astoro.
[Let's go!] ]
Tilmatt: [It wasn't intended, but the King's Tool is a must, no matter what, Astoro, I can't let you go.] ]
Thomas: [Then you'll get past me first!] ]
Thomas moved in front of Tilmatt in an instant, and swung it away.
However, it was blocked by a large black hand.
Timmatt: [Just let me see how much you've improved, Thomas!] ]
At this moment, outside, there are a lot of special-shaped groups guarding the tents, and Ling 3 people are on the periphery of this garrison circle.
Ling: [No matter how you look at it, it's almost 10,000.] ]
Haruka: [It's too much of a waste of energy to defeat them all, is there any quick way to solve it?] ]
Kenichi: [If I use my ultimate mystery, I should be able to destroy it all at once!] ]
Ling: [Let me ask, the ultimate meaning is a range technique!] ]
Kenichi: [That's right!] ]
Ling: [Will Astoro and the others be involved?!] ]
Kenichi: [Very likely.] Because I haven't fully mastered this trick yet, and I don't know exactly where they are. ]
Haruka: [Then don't use it!] ]
However, at this time, something unusual suddenly appeared in this encirclement.
In the center, a large black hand is raised high in the air, and it is Astoro who is holding it in his hand!
Ling: [Astoro?!] What's going on?! ]
Haruka: [Kenichi!] Open a way for us to pass! ]
[The Romance?] Air duct]
Kenichi cast the wind tunnel again, and then a road surrounded by a strong wind appeared, and the three of them immediately used this road to quickly run in the direction of Astro and launched a rescue.
On Astoro's side, Thomas had already been knocked to the ground and seriously injured, and a normal person would have been unable to move.
Thomas, however, picked up his knife and reluctantly stood up.
Timat: [Oh?!] I still have the strength to fight! Although your combat level has improved, it is useless to face me. Because I taught you all the knife skills! ]
Thomas: [Ah!] I know. However, I have no intention of defeating you, because I know I can't. All my goal now is to wake up that idiot! ]
So, will Thomas be able to save Astro?! And will Astro really make a move on his benefactor, Tilmat?!
