Chapter 89
On the ground, Ze Ruo was horrified. He looked at the little girl in front of him and yelled, "You...how did you come here? Who told you to come here! Leave! Get out!"
But the girl paid no attention to his fear and anger, and grabbed the door of the mecha cockpit with her tender hands. She pulled hard, and the deformed door was torn open by her small hands like a cardboard box. She dragged Zeruo out, and the scanner hidden in her right eye scanned his body from head to toe. Then, her hands treated the wounds on Zeruo's body quickly and lightly, like attracting butterflies through flowers.
Because of the mechanical transformation, she would never be able to grow taller, would never cry or laugh, and would never be able to shed tears. Even in this situation, she showed a calmness that was completely different from that of ordinary girls. Facing those hideous and horrific wounds, her hands did not even tremble, and her movements were even more precise than some machines.
However, her expression, those subtle expressions on her pale face, always made Zeruo feel as if she was about to cry.
Zeruo exhaled a breath. Landia's medicine took effect very quickly, and the medicine in Jin Yingzi's hand seemed to be even more effective. In just a moment, he felt that his strength had recovered by half. When Jin Yingzi was about to go to see the situation of others, he quickly reached out and grabbed her hand, saying, "Listen to me, Jin Yingzi."
Golden cherry stopped, lowered her head and said nothing.
Zeruo couldn't stand up yet. He tried hard to prop up his upper body, looked into Jin Yingzi's eyes and said, "For us, death is death. We all had this awareness before we set out. But you are different. You are still young, and... there are many younger brothers and sisters outside who don't know anything at all. They need your protection." Seeing that Jin Yingzi was unmoved, he panted a few times, feeling a little anxious.
Although he didn't know how Jin Yingzi sneaked here, Zeruo thought that she must have followed them here hiding in a corner of their aircraft when no one was paying attention. Seeing the miserable situation of everyone at this moment, she couldn't help but run out to help.
But this would only give Princess Tanada another life.
Zeruo knew that he didn't have much time. The princess's people hadn't made any movement yet. Maybe she was somewhere happily watching their meaningless struggle. Maybe she really didn't notice the situation here... Even though this possibility was infinitely close to zero, Zeruo still held a faint hope.
But even if the princess and her men were really negligent, the gap they left would not be too long. Ze Ruo believed that he had to convince Jin Yingzi as soon as possible, even if it meant that she could escape alone.
He said quickly: "The empire's army has been defeated. Next... don't count on any reinforcements. Go quickly! You have to survive. At least someone should know what Princess Tanada did. Even if... even if one day... she becomes the controller of this empire..." Zeruo gritted his teeth, knowing that his next words might push the girl's second half of her life into the abyss, but now he could only say this: "... you have to avenge us!"
"No need!" Jin Yingzi finally spoke, and she shook her head stubbornly, "I don't want it, I want to be with you!"
"...You!" Ze Ruo was so angry that the wound that had just healed was torn open. He didn't understand why this girl who was usually the most sensible and considerate became so willful now.
"I brought him here!" Jin Yingzi suddenly said, "He promised me! The princess will die! All the bad guys will die! We all need to survive!"
"Him?" Zeruo frowned in confusion at first, then realized and asked, "You mean..."
Jin Yingzi ignored him and turned to dismantle other mechas. She still had complaints about Zeruo not bringing her with her. It was not a good feeling to be protected by everyone and watch others die. She would rather fight side by side with everyone and die on the battlefield.
Moreover, she was more sober than Zeruo. Zeruo still had a glimmer of hope that the princess might show mercy to the others, but Jin Yingzi would not think so. After this rebellion, if the princess was still alive, she would never trust any of them again. Therefore, they would either be secretly executed or played to death by the princess, which would not make much difference.
So, this is a war of life and death.
Even though they lost, but... he will definitely win!
With a kind of confidence that she couldn't even explain, Jin Yingzi's electronic eyes had already counted all of her surviving companions. The huge casualties and some faces that she would never see again made her inexplicably sad.
And Zeruo did not ask any more questions. He finally understood why the princess had never reacted to the sudden appearance of Jin Yingzi - because that person went to find her!
Ze Ruo, who was already exhausted, lay on the ground, looked at the blue sky and let out a long sigh.
He actually didn't think that the man named Rong Yuan could do anything to the princess. After all, even the powerful army of the empire was defeated in an instant, right? However, with the unexpected situation, that man might be able to severely injure the princess once, right?
Then, all of them would die.
Anyway, there has never been much fun in living!
The princess's expression changed color for a moment, and then she quickly returned to her smiling face.
It was wrong to say that she was completely unprepared for Rong Yuan's appearance. She was more concerned and vigilant than anyone else about Rong Yuan, who had repeatedly ruined her plans and destroyed her forces. When the princess heard that Rong Yuan was about to leave the Landia Empire, she was relieved and did not plan to send anyone to stop or kill him. It was not wise to provoke such a powerful enemy with unknown details without sufficient preparation.
Therefore, Princess Tanada only hoped that Rong Yuan could leave peacefully and never come back, or even let her send someone to escort him - she only needed three months at most to seize the royal power of Landia. After three months, even if Rong Yuan came back, Princess Tanada was confident that she could take him down.
Princess Tanada had already received news of Zeruo's rebellion and Leopold's attack. To her, the resistance of these people was no different from that of a clown. But since her identity as the mastermind behind the organization had been exposed, it was natural that Rong Yuan, who had already left the Imperial Capital, would appear here.
In order to prevent this, Princess Tanada set up seven interception lines on the periphery of the planet, and at the same time sent people to pay attention to the route of Rongyuan's spacecraft - she did not even pay so much attention to the military convoy led by Leopold.
So what surprised her was not Rong Yuan's appearance, but the fact that she had not received any news before his appearance. Neither the interception line in space nor the monitoring network on the ground found any trace of him.
How did he do it?
The princess couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it. From the moment Rongyuan spoke, her fingers flicked repeatedly, secretly sending out more than a dozen orders.
However, after more than ten minutes, the surroundings were still eerily quiet.
The princess could hardly laugh anymore.
The cyborgs around them were like real stone puppets, not even a hair moved;
As soon as the army secretly raised by the princess went out, they were pointed at vital points by a bunch of biochemical modified people with guns. If they dared to move, they would be warned once, and shot directly if they dared to move again;
In space, except for the cyborgs, the rest of the people in the princess's fleet disarmed, raised their hands, and were driven to the central hall by the cyborgs, the mechas that moved themselves, and many small cleaning robots. They sat down helplessly, not knowing what was going on;
Some powerful henchmen broke through the siege and rushed over, but were intercepted a few hundred meters away - this underground fortress had been heavily modified and was full of traps and various lethal weapons. These henchmen were trapped in some corridors, with guns pointed at them on both sides of the corridor. If they were not careful, they would be shot into sieves or cut into pieces of meat several inches in size by laser beams.
The princess didn't know what happened to her subordinates. During this period, she issued three more orders. The last time, the action was so big that she didn't care if Rong Yuan saw it, but each order still fell on deaf ears.
She took a deep breath and stopped trying. She looked at Rong Yuan and said with a smile, "Mr. Rong is really good at this. Why don't you tell me, a poor woman who is isolated and helpless, how did you make all my men betray you?"
Although she was still smiling, everyone could see that her expression was very ugly.
Rong Yuan sighed: "It's not me who did all this."
"Who is that?" the princess asked, raising her eyebrows.
"You don't know anyone, so most of the people around you are modified robots." Rong Yuan said: "But after their systems are compromised, they will only defect faster than humans whose loyalty is uncertain."
"Impossible!" The princess said decisively: "The systems here are all specially strengthened by the orchid grass. Even if it is this, it will not be able to break through in a short time! It is even more impossible to invade silently!"
"If one intelligent computer can't do it, then what if we add another one?" Rong Yuan said, "The effect that two intelligent computers can produce together is not as simple as one plus one equals two."
If it takes an hour for the Bluegrass to break into the firewall it had set up itself, then the Bluegrass combined with Alpha can shorten that time to 0.00001 seconds, which can be said to be an instant breakthrough, like destroying dry weeds and rotten wood with ease.
Princess Tanada frowned, and after a while she said doubtfully, "But I heard that your intelligent computer Noah was destroyed at the Pillar of Creation more than ninety years ago."
Alpha had always followed Rong Yuan's instructions in the form of invisible data streams until recently when it found itself a body and had always been disguised as an ordinary robot. The only people who knew that it was also an intelligent computer were Wandou, Amirida, and Lancao, who was also an intelligent computer. Even Selinda and Mu Xiaohu, who were close to Rong Yuan, only thought that Alpha was a robot with relatively powerful computing capabilities.
Therefore, even the intelligence network of Princess Itanada had not received any news that Alpha was an intelligent computer. But she only thought about it for a moment and thought of the ugly household robot in the rumors. She asked in a positive tone: "The robot called Alpha?"
Rong Yuan did not answer. He did not come here to chat with Princess Tanada.
Seeing his hand raised, the princess suddenly felt a great danger, and the murderous intent was like a knife approaching her neck. She took a few steps back and said hurriedly before Rong Yuan could do anything: "You can't kill me, otherwise, you will regret it!"
Rong Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, with a look of slight disapproval on his face.
Princess Tanada glanced at the last few people around her, bit her lip, and felt great hatred in her heart.
The cyborgs who had pressed Leopold down had been controlled at some point, and they turned to capture the maid beside her. The maid's martial arts were good, but compared to the cyborgs, her fancy moves were nothing. As for Dumont, he was caught off guard by Leopold who had escaped. The fake emperor and fake Serinda looked at her in panic and confusion. There was not even an enemy around them, but the two stood there stupidly, not knowing what to do.
In order to prevent the puppet who was helped to the throne from trying to escape control in the future, these two Kelong people only have the form of their original owners. In fact, they have been raised by Princess Tanada like pigs... No, maybe even worse than pigs. Domestic pigs may knock over the butcher and run away when facing the butcher's knife, but they will actively stretch their necks under the knife, just hoping that the butcher can chop faster.
A quarter of an hour ago, she was the master who controlled everyone's life and death, held powerful military force, and could easily manipulate everyone in the palm of her hand; a quarter of an hour later, she was isolated and helpless, trembling under the butcher's knife like a lamb to be slaughtered.
After years of planning, it all came to nothing. If it were someone else, they would probably go crazy or even commit suicide. But Princess Tanada calmed down in just a few breaths, gritted her teeth, showed an even more beautiful smile, and whispered to Rong Yuan: "As long as I die, Ice City will immediately disappear from this world. The attack is hundreds of thousands of light years away, and even you can't stop it... Even if you don't care about my daughter Serinda, don't you care about Amirida's family who are in Ice City right now?"
