006. World Collector
"Don't even think about it!"
Fiona chose to refuse without thinking about it: "You are the last hope of our Krypton, and the lives of all of us together are not as important as yours." ”
Glaring at the female adjutant's gaze without evacuation, Ron grimaced: "I have a way to escape safely after detonating the shield fortress, but this method can only be used by me alone." ”
"No kidding, you ......"
In the middle of her words, Fiona suddenly thought of something that General Zod had specially mentioned to her before the incident.
The other party is suspicious.
His immortal son is most likely the legendary 'last son of Krypton', and when the end comes, he is likely to be blessed by Rao and shoulder the heavy responsibility of rebuilding the Kryptonian civilization.
This is also the main reason why the other party does not hesitate to draw out the most elite forces under his command to escort the other party to evacuate Krypton.
Approaching Ron, Fiona crouched down and pressed his shoulders with both hands, and said solemnly, "Are you sure?" ”
"Am I going to joke with my life?" Ron rolled his eyes.
Judging by the body language, the other party is telling the truth, but Fiona finally rejects Ron's offer: "No! Barr, take Ron to the escape pod. ”
Even if the other party really had the ability to escape after detonating the shield fortress, as long as there was a 1 in 10,000 chance of endangering her life, she was unwilling to take this risk.
Slapping away the palm stretched out to his arm, Ron crossed his hands on his hips, frowned, and said in a milky voice with a frowning little face: "I don't want you to think, I want me to feel!"
Now I'm the supreme governor here. ”
Then, looking at several Kryptonian soldiers beside him, he ordered, "Take Adjutant Fiona to the escape pod, this is an order!" ”
This choice was not made on a whim by Ron, but was the result of careful consideration.
Fiona's Kryptonian version of the 'Trojan Horse' project has only two endings.
One is to successfully enter the enemy ship, detonate the shield fortress, and die with the enemy, so as to win a glimmer of life for them.
The second is that the enemy is uneasy and plays cards, choosing to kill her on the spot, and everyone finishes playing together.
In this way, not only will Fiona die a meaningless death, but he will also lose his ancestral shield fortress.
In other words, if he carried out this plan, even if the plan was discovered, he would be sure to successfully escape with the shield fortress.
If the plan succeeds, he will certainly lose the Shield Fortress, but he will be able to save Fiona and the others.
In contrast, no matter how you look at it, you can make a profit without losing money.
As for running away directly with the shield fortress, Ron didn't think about it.
However.
As a time-traveler of flower growers, Ron deeply understands a truth.
If people lose land, people and land will survive; If you lose your land, you will lose your land!
Such a lordosis posterior ...... Ahem, the capable and loyal subordinates are lost, but there is nowhere to look for them.
Hearing this, several soldiers looked at each other.
After some struggle, under the leadership of Barr, several people surrounded Fiona, who was so gloomy that she was about to drip water: "Sorry, adjutant. This is the order of the general. ”
Seeing this, Ron couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief silently.
is worthy of his henchmen specially selected by his cheap daddy, and his loyalty really has nothing to say.
Just now, he was really a little worried that this group of big-headed soldiers would not listen to him.
Ron smiled and stretched out his palm to the female lieutenant, "Sister Fiona, give me back the shield fortress, and teach me how to detonate this thing by the way." ”
Glancing at the few Kryptonian soldiers staring at her, Fiona finally resisted the urge to do it.
First, there is no need for meaningless internal friction at the moment of the great enemy, and second, there is no certainty of victory.
Taking a deep breath and looking directly into Ron's eyes, Fiona's tone was more solemn than ever, "Ron, can I trust you?" ”
"Of course."
Nodding vigorously, Ron put his right fist to his chest: "I swear by the honor of the Zodd family, after this separation, I will definitely return." ”
"Remember your promises."
With a cold face, Fiona took out the shield fortress and solemnly handed it back to Ron: "I have set the self-detonation program, and it will detonate three seconds after pressing the top button. ”
Taking the black pentagonal prism, Ron reminded the female lieutenant who was leading the team to leave the bridge, "The destination of the escape pod is set to the GV2-075 star system."
There, you can live without food and oxygen. ”
Although the escape pod is limited by its size and cannot be equipped with a hyperspace wormhole engine, it still has a warp engine, and it is not a problem to fly hundreds of light years.
As if suddenly remembering something, Ron added: "By the way, I will give you two more pieces of advice, don't provoke the Apocalypse, let alone the Earth, if there is a conflict as a last resort, give in for the time being, and wait until I return." ”
"Apocalypse, Earth, I know."
With a wave of her hand, Fiona walked towards the escape pod without looking back.
"Alert! Shield integrity reduced to 30%! ”
Drawn back to attention by the cold sound of mechanical sirens and sweeping over the various data of the spaceship on the screen, Ron frowned: "Full fire, cover Fiona's evacuation." ”
At the sound of an order, photon torpedoes, space collapse bombs, and full-range blocking quantum shock bombs ...... All sorts of weapons were unleashed from all over the ship as if they were not paying for money, and they all blasted into the steel monsters that were chasing after them.
In less than 30 seconds, the ammunition stored in the research ship was depleted, and the integrity of the shield was reduced to 20%.
Even then, it did not cause any damage to the enemy ship.
But this move was not without success, and the escape pods of Fiona and the others had successfully broken through the enemy's blockade during this time and entered a warp sailing state.
Thinking of the female adjutant's speculation, Ron said methodically: "Send a surrender signal to the other party." ”
After a few seconds, the giant battleship that received the surrender message stopped attacking, but the shield was still on, and it was rapidly approaching.
"Lift the shield and stop sailing."
As Fiona expected, when Ron's ship lifted the shield, a light blue towing beam shot out from the bottom of the giant battleship, landed on the ship, and dragged it towards the tarmac in the belly of the giant battleship.
'Bang! ''Bang! ’
No sooner had the ship come to a stop than the side hatches were violently broken down from the outside.
A green-skinned humanoid bald man over two meters tall, with his torso covered in silver armor and four metal tentacles behind his back, walked through the hatch with two mechanical guards.
"I thought you'd hold on a little longer."
After discovering that there was only one suspected abandoned child in the entire spaceship, the green-skinned man frowned slightly: "Is it to buy time for his companions to escape?" Useless struggles. ”
Ron looked cold: "Who are you?" Why are you chasing us? ”
"Freel Dax, however, the pigs of the universe prefer to call me the World Collector - Brainac."
Brainiac answered Ron's doubts without hesitation, as if everything was under control: "As for why I hunted you down, as a former cosmic overlord-level civilization, you Kryptonian relics are extremely collectible and can add a lot of color to my treasury. ”
"Collectible?"
Figuring out the other party's purpose, Ron suddenly couldn't stop crying and laughing.
Sure enough, to have power is to be able to do whatever you want.
"Brainack? I remember you. ”
As he spoke, Ron's hands hidden behind his back pressed the button at the top of the Shield Fortress: "Try my gift for you, art is an explosion!" ”
Before the words fell, Brainiac sensed that something was wrong, and the four metal tentacles behind him shot out like sharp arrows, ready to control the Kryptonian cub in front of the other party first.
Unexpectedly, it was a step too late, and all the metal tentacles captured was an afterimage.
The other party's true body had left in a way he couldn't understand, leaving only a black pentagonal prism in place.
‘Boom! ’
In the next moment, endless white light bloomed from inside the pentagonal prism, engulfing everything around it.
