Chapter 164 Huo Xiu Ze
"What about the reconnaissance you did beforehand? The strange beasts have already come to our doorstep. The power of the royal family really opens my eyes!"
In the emergency command center, Liga was furious. Just now, a large number of strange beasts appeared near Sirius.
In order to protect the safety of the students, Si Mingyu activated the emergency system and opened the planetary barrier without authorization, which directly led to Sirius completely losing its signal.
Shortly thereafter, a large number of strange beasts broke out in many places on Sirius.
"Prince Lijia, your words are questioning the royal family." Si Mingyu reminded with a somewhat ugly expression.
After a moment, his expression softened and he continued, "I understand how you feel. The Royal Guards have already started searching for the participating students. I believe we will get news about Xiaoyan in no time."
Li Jia snorted coldly, his eyes sharp: "Humph, I dare not trouble the royal family. If anything happens to the students this time, the prince should think carefully about how to apologize to the entire galaxy!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, but when he reached the door, the guards stopped him.
"Get out of here!" Li Jia shouted loudly, and at the same time, he swung his spear and knocked the two men to the ground.
"Prince Liga, please wait." At this time, a gentle voice came from behind.
The man jogged over and it turned out to be Sang Mo.
Sang Mo's usually gentle face now showed a hint of anxiety: "Please let me go with you."
Li Jia narrowed his eyes and recognized him as the royal pharmacist. He immediately frowned and said coldly, "I'm afraid it will be inconvenient!"
He kept walking while speaking, and walked out of the emergency command center directly while Sang Mo was stunned.

At this time, in the military command hall.
"Except for the leading planet, other planets in the main galaxy have experienced attacks by alien beasts of varying scales."
"How's Sirius doing?"
"The royal family activated the planetary barrier, causing the signal to be blocked. The specific situation is still unclear, but a team has been dispatched to investigate."
"Has Hill not been contacted yet?"
"Yes, the major general's terminal has not responded."
Wen Yi was silent for a while. Now he couldn't get in touch with Huo Linyuan. To be precise, he had lost contact with Huo Linyuan a day ago.
"Dispatch an army directly from the nearest space base to Sirius." Wen Yi gave the order.
The adjutant was stunned: "But it will take two days for the nearest army to arrive."
Because this wave of alien beasts broke out very suddenly, and the outbreak locations were very scattered, almost near every planet, so the defense forces were dispersed.
Currently, the situation around the leading star and the secondary star is the most serious, and it is temporarily impossible to withdraw troops.
The large-scale appearance of the strange beasts this time was far beyond Wen Yi's expectations. In the past, the strange beasts had never broken through their defenses so silently as they did this time.
These strange beasts seemed to appear out of nowhere, which frightened Wen Yi and also made him feel a little cold.
"Gather all the reserve troops that can be mobilized, I will go there in person." After a moment, Wen Yi changed his plan, stood up and walked out.
The adjutant behind him was startled and said hurriedly: "General! We still need you to take command here, you can't..."
Wen Yi stopped and looked at him with a frown.
Under his gaze, the adjutant swallowed what he was about to say.
"Let me go." Just then, a man dressed in black and wearing a mask walked into the command room.
-
One day ago, Mortia, rebel warship.
"The Marshal is truly courageous enough to come to our territory with only one person." The bald man who greeted him at the door clapped his hands.
"Stop talking nonsense, where is your leader?" Ling Qing asked coldly.
"Don't be impatient, Lieutenant Ling. Our leader has been waiting for you for a long time. However, according to the rules of the underworld, please leave your weapons behind." The bald man pointed to the storage table next to him.
Ling Qing frowned. At this time, Huo Linyuan had already taken down the Obsidian and placed it on the storage table. Ling Qing gritted his teeth and put the weapons he was carrying on the table.
"Lead the way." Huo Linyuan's tone was intimidating without him being angry.
Seeing the two people's decisive actions, the bald man couldn't help but admire them. He bent down slightly and made an invitation gesture: "Please come this way, both of you."
The bald man brought the two men to a heavily guarded door. The door seemed to sense the arrival of the people and opened automatically the next moment.
Huo Linyuan walked straight in, but the guard at the door stopped Ling Qing.
"Adjutant Ling, please wait outside for a moment. Our leader wants to talk to the marshal alone." The bald man explained.
Huo Linyuan turned around and nodded slightly to Ling Qing: "Let's go check on General Lin's condition first."
Ling Qing was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant and nodded.
The door closed automatically and Huo Linyuan walked into the inner room. A tall man stood in front of the light screen with his back to him.
Hearing the voice, the man turned around and said, "Xiao Yuan, long time no see."
The man was handsome, with sword-like eyebrows slanting into his temples and a resolute face, but his eyes, which should have been sharp, looked cloudy and tired.
"Sit down." The man pointed to a chair beside him and walked behind the table and sat down.
"We haven't seen each other for... twenty years, right? Back then you were just as tall as my waist, and now you've grown so big." The man supported his chin with a kind expression, and his tone seemed to be filled with infinite nostalgia.
Huo Linyuan frowned and broke the current atmosphere directly: "Chief Huo asked me to come here, I'm afraid it's not just for reminiscing about the past."
His voice was cold. Huo Xiu Ze was stunned for a moment, then he laughed helplessly: "If I didn't use this method, I'm afraid you wouldn't come."
"Lin Ke, you can take him away, but I hope you can promise me one thing, don't interfere in my dispute with the royal family."
Huo Linyuan remained silent. At this time, Huo Xiuze continued, "I know that the military has always been at odds with the royal family. As long as you don't help the royal family, the entire galaxy will belong to our Huo family."
"Does it also include those strange beasts and infected people?" Huo Linyuan sneered.
Huo Xiu Ze was startled, then said seriously: "Those are just necessary tools to fight against the royal family. When the royal family is destroyed, everything will return to its original place. At that time, these things will naturally not pose a threat."
"I'm sorry, but I can't put the people of the entire galaxy into despair." Huo Linyuan stood up and prepared to leave.
At this time, Huo Xiu Ze raised his voice a little: "For the sake of world peace, necessary sacrifices are inevitable. They should feel honored to be the pioneers of a new era."
Huo Linyuan pretended not to hear and walked straight to the door. At this time, Huo Xiu Ze softened his tone:
"Xiao Yuan, I know you hate me, but everything I did was for your mother, you, and the entire Huo family."
Hearing this, Huo Linyuan stopped but did not turn back: "I just want to ask you one question, does grandpa's death have anything to do with you?"
Huo Xiu Ze's body froze. He moved his lips and after a long while he managed to squeeze out a few words with a lack of confidence: "Things are not what you think."
Huo Linyuan's eyes darkened: "I will investigate this matter thoroughly. If I find out that this matter is related to you...even if it is you, I will never let you go."
Finally, he added in a cold tone: "Chief Huo, please keep your promise."
After saying that, he left the room directly.
