Chapter 19: Loyalty to the Empress

No. 8 Steel Tan tried to smash open the bulkhead of the ship, but unfortunately it was not possible at all.

"Don't waste your efforts, brute force alone will not work without weapons." On Yan reminded.

Lethe looked in the direction of the guards' retreat and asked, "Where should I go?" ”

"The ship's hatch is at the front, but there are a lot of enemies there, and we have to go to the back."

"There's an exit in the back?"

"Nope."

Lechuan wondered, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Listen to me." On Yan Dao, "Although your steel tank is powerful, it can't even beat my Burning Shadow Number, let alone the special steel tank of those guards, don't be lucky." ”

Lechuan had no choice but to follow the meaning of the rock and drive the No. 8 steel tan deeper into the rear.

After a while, I came to a tall metal door. After Nonyan entered the command, the metal door opened, and inside was a large confined space.

Steel Tank 8 entered, and the metal door immediately shut.

Lethe looked around and saw a pitch-black steel tank standing in the corner next to him.

This pitch-black steel tank, which has defeated the No. 8 steel tank twice, is the Burning Shadow in the mouth of the rock.

"You're going to drive a steel tank?" Lethe asked tentatively.

"What's the use of driving a steel tan now? Your steel tan, with the Burning Shadow, still can't break through. ”

"And what are you doing here?"

"Take me over there." On Yan stretched out his hand and pointed, "Hurry up, or it will be too late." ”

Lethe hurriedly led Nonyan to a small door on the inside, and Nonyan entered the command to open the door, revealing a small cab inside.

"What the hell is this place?" Lethe said curiously.

On Yan limped into the cockpit and replied, "A large aerospace plane." ”

"So you have a back hand."

"Be prepared." On Yan sat down in the driver's seat and started the spaceplane.

With a violent jolt, the plane broke away from the ship and, along a secret track, escaped through a hidden hatch in the hull.

The battleship and the Weiyue army on the ground discovered the sudden flying sky plane, and when they wanted to pursue it, it was too late.

Steel Tan can't keep up with the flight speed of the aerospace plane, and the aircraft with enough speed will not have time to take off.

You can only use artillery fire to try to shoot down the aerospace aircraft, but this is not easy to say.

The plane crashed into the clouds unscathed, and disappeared without a trace.

Confirming that it was safe, Lethe left the No. 8 steel tank and entered the cockpit of the aerospace aircraft.

"Does it matter your legs?"

On Yan replied weakly, "If you can, bandage it for me, the medical kit is in the cabinet behind me." ”

Lethe turned around, opened the cabinet, and took out the medical kit.

stepped forward to bandage the wound of Nonyan, but found that this guy had passed out in a moment.

He had lost a lot of blood and his condition was not optimistic

Lethe hurriedly started the autopilot of the aerospace plane, and then raced against time to treat the wounds of Nonyan.

After doing all this, Lethe Chuan put the Yan lying on the passenger seat next to him, sat in the main pilot's seat, and took over the pilotship of the aerospace plane.

At this time, the space plane had almost flown out of the atmosphere of the Water Country Star, and it was unknown where the rock was going to go.

To be on the safe side, Lethe plans to go to the safe space of the universe first, and wait for the rock to wake up before making plans.

A few hours later, he woke up and saw the universe beyond.

He turned his head to the side and said to Lethe, "Where are we?" ”

"It's not far from the Water Country Star, and it will be difficult for the Weiyue Army to find us for a while and a half."

Ronyan relaxed, feeling that his body was very weak, and he barely had the strength to move.

"You saved my life."

Lechuan Zhengse said: "Between us, it's just a transaction. ”

On Yan smiled bitterly: "If I say, I lied to you, what will happen to you?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know who destroyed the headquarters of your Divine Hands."

Lethe was speechless for a moment.

On Yan continued, "I can only be sure that it was definitely not the Weiyue army. ”

"I expected this to be the case, and if you really knew the details, you couldn't have used it as a bargaining chip when we first talked."

On Yan was a little surprised: "Since you understand this, why did you promise to help me?" ”

Lethe Chuan shrugged: "If I don't cooperate with you, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape." Helping you is also helping myself, now we are clear. ”

"You're such a clever ghost."

"Tell me why they're dealing with you."

On Yan took a deep breath: "What do you think? ”

"You have a different heart, or you are a spy of the enemy."

"None of them are right."

Lechuan thought for a while and said, "Could it be that someone framed you, and you were wronged?" ”

"Not really."

"I remember you said before that someone betrayed you, so you are indeed doing something bad for Wei Yue."

On Yan shook his head slightly: "My loyalty to Wei Yue can be seen by the stars." Everything I do is for Wei Yue and Empress Suxing. ”

"Can you be more explicit?"

"I suspect that something is wrong inside Wei Yue, and the Suxing Empress is under threat. I must find a way to find out the truth and secretly build up my strength in case something happens. ”

Lethe thought and said, "In other words, you secretly supported the army and respected yourself, and then you were informed?" ”

"Almost."

"No wonder you're studying my steel tan, you want to get the technology from it to produce and strengthen it, right?"

"If I succeed, it will be a great help for me."

"You obviously have a more powerful steel tank in your hand, such as your Burning Shadow, why do you need to do more?"

"The Burning Shadow is not as powerful as you think, and it has many weaknesses that need to be improved. If you can't make it stronger, you won't be able to face possible threats, and maybe you don't know what a terrifying steel tank exists on Weiyue. ”

"You actually want to kill Weiyue?"

"Empress Suxing is on Weiyue, I have no second way to choose."

Lethe Chuan wondered, "How can you conclude that there is something wrong with Wei Yue?" ”

While recalling, Nonyan explained: "Since receiving Lord Shenmo, the empress's behavior has become incomprehensible, and it is even more unimaginable to send troops to Shuixiangxing. I think she must have been threatened to do this. ”

"I've heard about the reception of Lord Shenmo, I heard that Lord Shenmo and his party tried to assassinate the Empress?"

"I only got the news after the fact, and I don't know what happened at the time."

"Then have you ever thought about it, it may also be that the empress is provoked, and anger can easily make people lose their minds."

On Yan said helplessly: "You don't understand the empress, you look down on her." She is a person who has lived for thousands of years, what wind and waves have not been seen, how can she be easily provoked? Even if she was provoked, with her wisdom, she could not have done something stupid. ”

"That's ...... too"

"Although I have never met the Empress in person, since I was a child, her words and deeds have influenced us humans who guard the moon. She is so wise and powerful, if she has any weakness, it is that as a woman, it is that she is difficult to face unreasonable arrogance. ”

"She's got great guards around her, and that's not a problem."

On Yan said in a sullen voice: "What if even the guards turn against each other? ”

"That'...... Then she is just a weak woman who is powerless, and she is slaughtered. ”

"That's what worries me the most. I've always guessed that Lord Shenmo's audience was a conspiracy from beginning to end, a conspiracy that should be combined inside and outside. ”

Lechuan disagreed: "If it is a combination of inside and outside, why did Lord Shenmo and his party also suffer?" ”

"It's not difficult to explain, Lord Shenmo and his party were originally chess pieces, but after using them, they were discarded."

"The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook, and it's too good to do it."

"If you dare to attack the empress, you will naturally do anything."

"Then again, it's all just your guess, and maybe it's far from that."

"I also hope I'm wrong, otherwise the situation would be unimaginably serious."

"So what's next for you?"

On Yan was silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "I won't give up halfway, at least, I have to find out the whole thing." ”

"How do you check?"

"Go to Weiyue."

"I don't want to wade through the troubled waters with you, break into the enemy's base camp single-handedly, and die without knowing how to die."

"I'm not so stupid, if I want to go to Weiyue, I have to be well prepared first. Wei Yue's army attacked the Water Country Star, although it was the empress's order, but it was also opposed by many high-ranking people, some of whom have friendships with me, and I think they will help me when the time comes. ”

Lethe said indifferently, "I wish you success." ”

On Yan looked at Lethe: "What are your plans?" ”

"No matter what I plan, I won't die with you."

"By the way, you must want to go back to Yuexian Island and find your new wife."

"Or else?"

On Yan Zhengse said: "I advise you not to go back for the time being, otherwise you will harm others and yourself." Those people under my command know that your base camp is on Yuexian Island, and if you go back, you will be caught in the net. ”

"There are my wives, friends and colleagues on the island, and even if I fall into the net, then I have to go back."

"I don't think if you don't go back, they shouldn't do anything to Yuexian Island, after all, the chain group on the island should not be underestimated. Once you go back, they'll definitely come to your door at all costs. ”

Lechuan was surprised: "I'm so important to them? ”

"For them, you don't matter, it's me who matters." "Now they all know that you are with me. ”

"In their eyes, you're just a traitor, no matter how important you are, you won't do anything to do it, right?"

Yan Yan was secretive and said: "The top of the Weiyue army, of course, not. But there is one person who not only does, but has to do it. ”

"Who are you referring to?"

"My adjutant, stroke."

"Him?" Lethe Chuan blinked, "Could it be that he is the informer, and he betrayed you?" ”

On Yan sneered: "Except for him, no one can push me to this point, he is qualified, capable, and motivated." I've thought countless times that if I fail, then the problem must be with him. ”

Lethe Chuan was puzzled: "Then why don't you guard against him?" ”

"I've been guarding against it, and this aerospace plane is one of the means." On Yan sighed lightly, "I just didn't expect that his movements would be so fast and so decisive. He is very capable, and many things need him to get things done, so I didn't rush to deal with him. ”

"You're raising tigers."

"That's right, I've tasted the pain so far."
