MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 68
"Shang Ping, what should we do next?"
Lochte was sitting against the wall, his injured arm was simply bandaged and fastened to his chest. Shang Ping didn't dare to relax and pressed the sharp weapon in front of Giovanna's eyes. He was hit hard and hurt, and it was difficult for him to stand firm at this moment.
Biting his lower lip, he could hardly restrain the trembling of his hands, and cold sweat slid down Shang Ping's eyes, blurring his vision. Giovanna just stared blankly at Lochte, who was sitting across from him, as if there was no sharp weapon that could pierce the eyeball right in front of him.
"Maybe, I should re-evaluate you."
When Giovanna spoke suddenly, Shang Ping and Rochette were stunned. The next moment, Shang Ping's wrist was firmly grasped by a big cold hand. The terrifying force nearly crushed his wrist bones. The hand slowly moved the sharp weapon that Shang Ping was holding in front of him, and before Lochte jumped up, he threw Shang Ping to the ground, put one knee on Shang Ping's chest, bowed his body, and stared at him. The black-haired boy still didn't see a panicked face. Contrary to the expectations of the two boys, Giovanna put away his anger, but was meticulous and looked at Shang Ping as if exploring. His slender fingers brushed against Shang Ping's cheeks and across Shang Ping's eyebrows, and whispered, "Really, I really want to..."
While Giovanna whispered, Shang Ping silently put a small communication device into Giovanna's jacket pocket. These so-called nobles always like flashy things, such as this coat, but they can make Shang Ping achieve his goals.
The door of the cell opened suddenly, and the sound of neat footsteps sounded and subsided. The faces of the three people in the room changed at the same time. Shang Ping and Rochette could almost foresee their own death, but Giovanna let go of Shang Ping after seeing Soran Edrich's implicitly angry face standing in front of the door.
"Sir Giovanna, I don't need your explanation."
Soran Edrich's icy voice echoed in the room, even though the man's face was expressionless, even though his fair and almost transparent skin made people suspect that His Royal Highness, the prince from a distant galaxy, was probably made of ice and snow. In the depths of his ice-blue eyes, he saw something different. Perhaps it was his delusion, in short, His Royal Highness, the noble prince, seems to be very unhappy because of something.
Is it because of the wayward behavior of this noble man? Or because he once again offended the majesty of these imperial soldiers?
Although he prefers the former, Shang Ping still bends the corners of his mouth with some self-knowledge. Is he a little too self-indulgent?
Soran Edrich ignored Giovanna and did not give the nobleman a chance to explain. He strode to Shang Ping, who was barely sitting up from the ground, and his white military boots stopped in front of Shang Ping. When Shang Ping began to guess the one hundred and one death method, he bent down and clamped Shang Ping's chin with one hand. Shang Ping's face was raised.
Looking into those icy blue eyes unexpectedly, Shang Ping lost his senses for a moment, as if looking into a blue ocean. This reminded Shang Ping of a picture of an iceberg he once saw in the earth era. Only the white corner of the iceberg was exposed to the sea. The huge, terrifying part that seemed to bite people was quietly hidden in the beautiful and peaceful surface. Below, waiting for the lost ship to go to destruction without knowing it.
If the gods really exist, will they be as beautiful as the man in front of them? Perhaps, it should be said that it is a demon from the depths of the ice ocean?
The pain in the chin recalled Shang Ping's reason, and he was stunned by his own imagination, and he was also a little uncontrollable.
Soran Edrich was not angry at all because of Shang Ping's absence, and his white fingertips brushed the corners of Shang Ping's lips inexplicably, stained with a bright red, black-haired boy's blood.
Soran Edrich looked at the bright red on his fingertips, but Shang Ping suddenly had a very bad premonition. His sixth sense was always accurate. Sure enough, the next moment, His Royal Highness, the noble prince, He actually stuck out the tip of his tongue and slowly licked the bright red touch. In an instant, Shang Ping felt his breathing stagnate.
Who can tell him that he is dreaming? !
Soran Edrich was unaware of the impact his unpredictable behavior had brought to the crowd. It was no different from the tiny force of a particle cannon that exploded on the spot. Even Giovanna frowned in disbelief. He can understand the occasional curiosity of His Royal Highness, but this kind of behavior is really inappropriate.
"This is the blood of aliens..."

Khanom Fortress
The frontal encounter between the fortress border patrol ship and the Golden Empire patrol fleet has spread throughout the Kanon military fortress. Ailu, the commander who led the patrol fleet at the time, proudly showed off to his colleagues how he destroyed those guys' warships with live ammunition.
"At that time, at that time!" Ailu stood at the table and raised his glass, "Those self-righteous guys should really show you their expressions at that time!"
Ailu laughed loudly and drank the wine in the cup. Everyone present knew that it was impossible for Ailu to see whether those guys were sad or surprised, but he didn't want this blunt captain to be exposed for his lies. Outraged. This soldier, also from the Apollo family, the former commander of the Third Fleet, is smug about attacking again, imagining that the Golden Empire space fleet will be completely destroyed, so that the explosion of those black battleships will become a sacrificial ceremony for the heroic soul of Colonel Apollo floating in the universe. .
Austin Soth stood by the gate of the banquet hall, nodding with the guard, but withdrew his steps before entering the venue. Dark green eyes fell on Ailu, who was surrounded by everyone, and snorted mockingly. This useless man, what are these guys doing when Colonel Edgar devotes all his energy to conducting simulated operations, while preparing to reorganize the fleet, train troops, and develop weapons according to new tactics? They were mocking, sarcastic, mocking Colonel Edgar's whims! Now he should be proud of the one-knee he once laughed at?
Austin can't forgive, even because of the dead Colonels Apollo and Lord, and Colonel Edgar's close friend Colonel Hansen, can't forgive these guys who are raising their glasses, talking loudly, and expressing "great ideals" at the moment!
These incompetent people! At this moment, the black-haired boy who saved their lives and was called the inventor of the "God-given" weapon, is trapped in the enemy fleet whose life and death are unknown!
"Austin, why don't you go in?"
"Zuo Jia, are you going in?"
"No. I don't like Eru's group. He doesn't look like Colonel Apollo at all, although he is indeed his nephew."
"Yeah, Colonel Apollo was a great soldier, and he..."
Dark green eyes flashed mockery, and the corners of his mouth curved like those of Commander-in-Chief David South at certain moments. Zuo Jia, who was fortunate enough to meet David South with his father and brother, shivered involuntarily.
Sure enough, is it father and son?
"Since we don't plan to go in, then there is no need to continue wasting time here. Besides..."
"Besides?"
Austin turned around, with a handsome face still youthful, with a smile that sent chills down Zuo Jia's back: "This is a self-inflicted attack, obviously, they don't understand a very simple truth, we are soldiers , does not fit the term."
Zuo Jia was stunned, but Austin stepped on the teleportation bridge and left without looking back. If Shang Ping was here now, he would definitely understand what he was talking about.
Austin clenched the small memory device in his pocket, which was an electronic simulacrum of Shang Ping copied from Colonel Edgar when he was not paying attention. The teleportation bridge stopped at the entrance of the command cabin. Before Austin stepped off the teleportation bridge, he heard Marshal Terry's roar: "...Bring them to see me, immediately, immediately!"
