Chapter 34: A Game Within a Game

In the sky above Linglan Star, the terrifying darkness was like a broken bubble, quickly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the golden sunlight finally slowly shone on the earth. The scorching sun, which once made countless lives desperate, is now like a gentle hand, gently soothing every inch of Linglan's land, every life, and the furious sandstorm has gradually subsided due to the dissipation of the dark sea and the heat wave brought by the sun.

Catherine in Prisoner of War Camp No. 26 naturally noticed the sunlight thrown into the porthole, she smiled elegantly, and walked towards Wim, whose lower body was melted by the black substance, and in her hand, she held a special pistol, although the appearance was no different from the ordinary Earth pistol, but it could fire a bullet tempered with a dark spell, no matter where it hit, it could be devoured, but due to technical limitations, the volume that a bullet could devour was limited.

"Wim, my Commander of the Light Pole." She crouched down slowly, and this time, the muzzle of the gun was pressed against the core of the star that Wim had already exposed, and the core of the star that was supposed to emit a dazzling light was overshadowed this time, because most of the core was stained with a terrifying black substance.

"You ......" Wim was already speechless in pain, as a creature made of light, he would not feel pain unless he encountered a black hole, was torn apart or devoured, but he felt that the power contained in this bullet seemed to have nothing to do with the black hole.

"You want to be comfortable in this little box," she said, gesturing to the iron box held by her subordinates, the metal used in the iron box has also been tempered by dark spells, for the Ibiaz, or for each star core, it would be extremely painful to be locked inside, a small amount of dark spells will slowly corrode the core of the star from all sides, and the core of the nuclear light consciousness, that is, the self-consciousness of the Ibiaz people, will feel severe pain. Under the high level of suffering, the consciousness of the Ibiaz will completely lose the ability to control the metal molecules, that is, they will lose the ability to acquire powerful metal entities, and can only remain a caged pain core.

Seeing that Wim didn't react, Catherine put the muzzle of her gun against his stellar core, "Still hope to satisfy my curiosity and let me see how many shots your core can take?" ”

If it was the former Wem, he would have been angry and ashamed, such a lowly creature would dare to treat him as a plaything!

But after all this, he realized that he really should be able to bend and stretch like Sally. If it weren't for Sally pretending to beg to join him, if it weren't for Sally swearing that she would get the Zero Armament for him, how could she lead her subordinates into the tiger's mouth! Directly ambushed by the commander of the expeditionary force! Think about the situation in the torture room at that time, if he was Sally, after being tortured like that, he would definitely scold at the last moment of his life, so that the other party could taste his strength, but after doing so, he would inevitably be killed, and there would definitely not be such a reversal as now.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Feed into the box. He lowered his head and said bitterly in a deep voice.

"A wise choice." Ekaterina shook her fingers, and the subordinate behind her immediately fastened the iron box to Wim's core, which made Wim suddenly feel a burst of pain, and the facial expression that should have been affected by the core and became a little sluggish quickly distorted into a painful look, but before he could wail, the subordinate had already sealed the iron box.

"The last stellar core, recovered." The subordinate piled Wim's box with those of the other Ibazians.

"Not the last one." The corners of Catherine's mouth were almost always hooked, "Ibaz hasn't been captured yet." However, we are not in a hurry, those expeditionary forces, I deliberately sent them to death. Without these weapons that I developed, how could I have taken down Ibiaz? ”

"Commander wise! In this way, the president will have no one to use at that time, those B-level and C-level expeditionary forces, as well as the last few crooked melons and cracked dates of the A-level, are not our opponents at all! One of the subordinates seized the opportunity to flatter.

This time, Catherine did not reject the flattery, she looked proudly at the illuminated desert outside the porthole, "The darkness of Olixus has obtained the light of Ibiaz for me, and the clear water of the silver lake can make Olixus himself ashes." We hold these three powerful things in our hands, and why is there no reason why this world should not be ours? ”

"Your 'Black Chess Plan' is amazing! Let Olixer lose his own interests! Also used by us! Hahaha, it's an idiot! ”

"With the Stellar Core, the energy problem is completely solved! It's no problem to hit wherever you want in the future! It's a great honor to have you at our disposal! ”

"There is also the missile of 'Silver Lake Sanctions', which has even been subdued by the Dark Sea! In the past, when I collected those 'black pieces', don't mention the trouble! Or the commander of your plan wisely! ”

The commander of the expeditionary force, the top three of the A-rank, methodically flattered Catherine, and she laughed more and more.

"Commander!" Suddenly, an eyeless creep barged in.

"You're blind!" The commander of the A1 expeditionary force was furious, because he was about to praise the commander a few more times, but it was his turn, but he was interrupted, and he was really angry.

"Division, Commander, Sally has been detected, and she's still alive! Currently in free fall, do you need to deal with it? ”

"What?" Ekaterina walked up to the creep, "Are you sure you're still alive?" Ekaterina seemed a little disappointed that Sally hadn't died.

"Sure!"

"Tsk......" her brow furrowed immediately. I remember last time, after the Bianofi civilization was erased, Sally was first recovered by the people sent by the president, and then there was no news, she thought that the power of the dark spell was exhausted and the person would automatically die, and she also studied it for a while, and it was also during that time that she heard that there was a lake called "Silver Lake" on the earth, and the lake in it would annihilate each other after contact with the dark spell, although I don't know what the principle is, but maybe this is the way to eliminate Oliks.

It's a pity that the "Silver Lake" series of weapons developed later did not find a suitable experimental object, after all, all the "black chess" personnel in the "Black Chess Project" have been transported and extracted into dark spell condensation. It wasn't until Sally appeared that she finally had the opportunity to experiment with the last person who had been "blessed" by the president and possessed a dark spell.

"I came to Linglan in person just to see her death." Ekaterina glanced indifferently at the porthole, "The backup plan is beginning to be implemented!" ”

"Yes!"

The military order was like a mountain, and the flattering trio just now immediately threw themselves into the work, trotting to prepare the next plan.

At the same time, Shao Yanghui and Di Longa had been buried with only one head exposed, looking like they were playing whack-a-mole, and they had been delusional about breaking the door of the spaceship with their bare hands, which now seemed to be too naΓ―ve.

"Didn't I tell you to chase the ship you borrowed?" Shao Yanghui, who was bare-headed, looked at the big sun shining in front of him, his eyes were a little open, the spaceship he was talking about was the one that Dirunga borrowed from the prisoner of war camp, but because it was suspended in the air, he didn't take any braking measures - just like the earthlings stopped and didn't pull the handbrake, the spaceship had just been blown away like a plastic bag.

"It's blowing too far, and fortunately we're leeward here, otherwise we would have flown together." Dirunga's paws were still digging under the sand, although it felt nice to be buried in the sand in the sun like this, but there was still a task on his body, and he was not in the mood to enjoy it, "When I'm done with this, I'm going to strongly ask for a promotion, and then ......"

Suddenly, its mouth was closed together by Shao Yanghui's arms that were finally stretched out, and it couldn't open at all, "Hurry up and find your spaceship." I saw Shao Yanghui's face full of expressions of waiting, this guy is really turning his face faster than turning a book, is the people in the Intelligence Bureau love this, or is it Dilonga lonely and unheard?

In the sky behind Dilunga, in addition to Sally who was falling, there was also a light cyan spaceship that appeared at some point, and the faint color almost merged with the sky that had just emerged.

"It's finally here." Shao Yanghui looked nervously at the spaceship, trying to pull himself out of the sand.

At the same time, the light cyan spaceship has slowly opened the shell on the top of the ship, as if to catch Sally directly, the empty ship is trying to fall in sync with Sally, after all, only by catching Sally first can it be possible to slow down slowly and avoid Sally falling into a meatloaf.

Soon after, in a trance, Sally, who was so illuminated by the light that she couldn't open her eyes, faintly felt that her back was under some pressure, and the pressure was still increasing, as if she wanted to squeeze out her internal organs before stopping. Just when she felt that her life was in danger and wanted to quickly recover her numb limbs, a familiar face appeared.

"Ye Ka......" The eyes that were originally slightly open suddenly widened, and she gritted her teeth and called out the other party's name.

However, Ekaterina only showed a faint smile, she waved her hand slightly, and a small robot with a metal cup came to Sally's side.

"Ye ......" Sally wanted to reach out and touch Ekaterina, but the other party took a light step back, stretched out her slender index finger, and shook it from side to side, signaling Sally not to touch her.

At the same time, the little robot has unscrewed the two lids of the metal cup, the lid of the cup is thrown on the ground at random, and the mechanical arm holding the cup body is slowly twisting the angle, and the water inside is getting closer and closer to the mouth of the cup.

Sally thought it was just going to get her collar wet, but it was a lot more serious than she thought. The moment the water touched her skin, the intense pain made her scream uncontrollably, and her body immediately curled up together, and black smoke "sizzled" out of the skin that was touched by the water.

"It seems that it was a success." Ekaterina walked happily and approached Sally again, but this time, Sally no longer had the strength to reach out and touch her.

"I know you value our friendship," Yaka fiddled with the rings in his hand, "but have you ever thought that I, in fact, just need you to help me find some secrets?" ”

"Uh-huh......" Sally clutched her neck, she didn't understand why she was made like that by the water, or maybe the metal cup wasn't water?

"By the way, there's one thing I've been hiding from you, and that'sβ€”" She sat down lightly on the ground and looked at Sally, "I'm indeed Oliks' daughter, but an adopted daughter. With that, she waved her fingers and motioned for the little robot to pour out some more water.

The water immediately hit Sally's face, and despite her mental preparation, the unbearable pain made her breath tremble violently, and the black smoke choked her trachea.

"It adopted me, just like I asked it to give you 'blessings', and they were just using each other." Catherine sighed, "The only difference is that it failed, and I succeeded." I didn't become its puppet, but you obediently became my pawn. ”

Sally felt like she was dreaming, memories of training, eating, and playing together...... Was it all a scam from the beginning?

"What the hell are you ...... What do you want me to do? She asked in a cold voice,

"I've found a way to kill Oliks, and soon, Blue Python, it's mine." Catherine leaned on Sally's ear and whispered, "I really can't imagine that Linglan Xing's thing has actually helped me so much." I thought I would never have a chance after missing the Bianofi incident. ”

With that, she stood up lightly and waved her hand at the robot.

But just as the cup was about to be rotated at a certain angle, a bullet hit the robot's chest, and the huge impact caused the robot to immediately fall backwards, and the cup smashed straight to the floor, making a huge metal collision sound, and all the liquid inside was spilled, but it only stuck to Sally's clothes.

Seeing this, Catherine just stood still, looking at the metal cup on the ground, allowing another bullet to pass through her head, and her body immediately fell uncontrollably to the ground.

Not far away, Shao Yanghui, who was standing in front of the porthole of the spaceship, hesitantly put down the sniper rifle and gently pressed the headset with his hand, "President, something is wrong." ”

Sally looked at Catherine who fell to the ground, and felt an indescribable weirdness in her heart, and just when she wanted to climb over to find out, the spaceship system said something terrifying-

"The self-destruct program has been initiated, countdown: 10,9 ......"

"Tsk." She had to get up with difficulty, covering her neck and half of her face, and staggered to the console, only to find that these systems were all set up, and the only one who had permission to change them was Catherine.

"Sally, you're arrested." Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out.

"Dironga?"

I saw Dironga grab her arm and jump out from the top of the spaceship, and Shao Yanghui, who was still holding a sniper rifle just now, quickly flew towards the two of them, and then, Sally and Dironga just fell into Shao Yanghui's spaceship that was almost scrapped, and at the same moment, the light cyan spaceship immediately burned with fierce flames, and Catherine, who was lying on the ground, opened her eyes, showed a satisfied smile, exploded a few electric sparks, and made a few noises of signal cut-off, "she" disappeared.

At the same time, Sally, who was half-dragged and half-dragged by Dironga to another spaceship, wanted to break free from its restraints, but was instead handcuffed by Dironga with handcuffs and backhands, normally speaking, Dironga may not be her opponent, but now her body is still very numb, and her arms and legs are not very obedient, so she has to be at the mercy of others.

"Why did you arrest me?" Fortunately, the mouth has regained consciousness slightly.

"What do you say? What you said in the negotiation arena was a bit excessive. Dironga just found a random reason to prevaricate Sally, until Shao Yanghui's spaceship landed side by side with her spaceship in the desert.

Sally was pushed off the boat by Dironga's arm, and at the same time, Shao Yanghui stepped out of his ship, holding a small piece of cloth in his hand to wipe the sniper rifle.

"It seems to have something to do with the deacon." Sally sighed, "Did the president ask you to dispose of me?" ”

"Half right and half wrong." Shao Yanghui put the gun back on the spaceship, "Let's go, go to the prisoner of war camp, I have to perform some minor surgery on you." ”

"Huh?" Di Longa was stunned for a moment, "So fast? ”

"That's right, 'Blessing' Separation. You stole some of the president's power, and now they want to get it back. After speaking, Shao Yanghui and Di Longa walked forward one by one, holding Sally's arm, and only then did Sally notice that in front of her was the No. 26 prisoner of war camp.

"Wait!" She stopped the two of them, "Wim is still inside, I told them to teleport here for shelter." ”

"Huh?" Dirunga's eyes widened, and Shao Yanghui had already taken out the communicator and was ready to contact the nearby Armed Zero, if they hadn't been wiped out by Sally.

"Originally, I wanted to activate the ability to eliminate the Armed Zero and then eliminate the Ibiaz in the prisoner of war camp. That's why I left Hamili and Chen Linhao in ......" Speaking of this, she was suddenly stunned, when her ability was out of control, what happened in the real world, she didn't remember it at all, and in her last memory, there was only Ekaterina's light cyan spaceship, and ...... A missile that hit her.

"It looks like a sad story." Shao Yanghui put the communicator in his jacket pocket, "What's even sadder is that the people I shake have been killed by you." I'll see Wim in a while, please ask you to act, don't let me both die here. ”

Sally had no choice but to nod, after all, she didn't really want to submit to Weim, and keeping the two forces of Shao Yanghui and Dirunga would make the situation more balanced, and she would have more opportunities to plan her next step.

But at that moment, Wim's body was thrown from the watchtower, smashed into the hull of the prisoner of war camp, and then bounced into the sand and in front of Sally.

This is only the upper half of Wim's body, the metal that originally wrapped him has long been distorted and deformed, and he can only vaguely see where is the head, where is the arms and body, and the light inside has long since disappeared, and now it seems to be just an empty shell of a black hole. As for his lower body, he is missing, and perhaps something happened to him as well.

Immediately after, only a "click" was heard, and the gate of the prisoner of war camp in front of them slowly opened.

"Welcome to Prisoner of War Camp 26, prisoners." It is a familiar sound.

"Catherine!" Even though the door was only open with a small crack and no one was in sight, Sally immediately called out her name, for the voice was etched in her memory.

"Member of the Deacon's House, Bixalas; Member of the Purging Bureau, Dirunga; And, our little traitor, the prisoner of war camp guard, Sally. When the hatch opened completely, Catherine, dressed in a black military uniform, stepped down gracefully from her white suspension chair and approached Sally step by step, while several expeditionary forces had surrounded Sally and the others. In fact, Catherine's soldiers were always nearby, but with the hidden function on the armor turned on, they could not be detected by the naked eye unless they were detected with special equipment.

Then, Catherine stretched out her right hand with white gloves, palm up, and moved her fingers gracefully a few times, and a metal cup with an open lid was brought to her hand by the attendant behind her, "Someone bothered us just now, but it doesn't matter. What should be verified, I will verify sooner or later, this is just lake water, enough to manage. ”

"What exactly are you trying to verify?" Sally stepped forward, and at the same time, Dironga secretly opened Sally's handcuffs, the silver bracelet hung loosely on her wrist, and Shao Yanghui was ready to pull out a pistol.

"Do you think it's really because I have a good relationship with you that I asked Olikser to give you 'blessings'?" The corners of Catherine's mouth raised slightly, "Do you think that the 'Black Chess Plan' was proposed by the president at the beginning?" ”

Sally was stunned, in her memory, she couldn't remember how she was "blessed" at all, she only remembered that she woke up one day with a few more monster scratches on her shoulder, and since then she always felt a force surging in her body. Because this force always frightened her, she did not tell anyone, not even Catherine, about it, until the events of Bianofi appeared.

At this moment, Shao Yanghui also took a step forward and blocked in front of Sally, "Divide the power of the president, and then break it one by one, and at the same time find a way to completely eliminate its power." Is that so? Commander. ”

Ekaterina just smiled quietly, and after a moment, she burst out laughing.

"It seems...... It was known to me that I was careful. ”

"The Blue Python system has achieved comprehensive coverage, as long as on our spaceship, everything you say and do, the president knows, it just doesn't want to interfere with you, see what you can do. Surrender now and it will forgive you. ”

"Oh?" Catherine tried her best to hide her surprised look, Shao Yanghui just now, said something very calmly?

Shao Yanghui understood Ekaterina's flashing eyes, "Don't be surprised. In fact, the president was relieved and said, 'I knew that Little Yaka was a genius!' And say surrender now and it will forgive you. ”

"Heh......" Catherine smiled awkwardly as if she had heard a cold joke, "Forgive? You tell it, let it look good. She grabbed Shao Yanghui's collar, "I've got the blueprint for the Wim bomb, and if I can't sit in its place, I'll ruin everything about it!" ”

Shao Yanghui was waiting for the right time, he pretended to reach out to grab Ekaterina and pull his hand, but in fact, he quickly pulled out the poisonous needle in the collar.

In the flash of lightning, the poisonous needle was about to pierce Catherine's wrist, but suddenly someone grabbed Shao Yanghui's wrist.

That man was Sally.

"You ......" Shao Yanghui's eyes widened, but he saw Sally snatch the poison needle and stick it in his neck, and with a gentle push, Shao Yanghui fell to the ground.

Di Longa was also speechless in shock, what is the situation now! Why did Sally do it! Obviously there was a chance to kill Ekaterina just now!

"Ekaterina," Sally said, looking at her old friend who had been reunited after a long absence, "I shouldn't be seeing a 3D projection now, right?" She said as she picked up the metal cup held up in the palm of her hand.

"No matter what you think, in my eyes you will always be my friend." With that, she brought the metal cup to her lips, "If you need me to help you achieve your ideals, just let me know." That's the difference between a friend and a pawn. ”

With that, she drank the water from the metal cup, and although the pain finally spread down her esophagus and countless black liquids came out of her mouth, she tried her best to smile and then collapsed on the sand.

Now it's not just Dirunga, even Catherine is stupid.

"Sa... Sally? To her surprise, Catherine felt something rolling in her eyes, "You will always be just a pawn, why don't you understand?" ”

With that, she turned around and walked towards the prisoner of war camp, "Don't leave a mouth alive. After dealing with it, he put all his energy into bomb making. ”
