Chapter 108 The Outbreak of War
The explosions in the sky became louder and louder, deafening.
"Kelly, go out immediately and see what's going on." General Edward ordered.
Kelly immediately ran out of the palace and returned quickly after a while.
"Oh no, the Holy Empire has launched a full-scale surprise attack on us, and a war has begun in space." Kelly said anxiously.
"What can I say? That old fox Feili took advantage of these stupid kids." Dean Soth said.
Everyone was at a loss for words. The change in the plot was too sudden, and it was not something that young people like us who were not familiar with the world could understand.
"Everyone returns to their fighting positions. Prince Doris, you are responsible for protecting the king, the duke and the councilors. As for these envoys, please take care of them for the time being." General Edward ordered.
Kelly glanced at Zhang Xingxing sadly, and hurriedly left to carry out the combat mission. General Edward and Captain Ahn'Qiraj also left immediately.
"Captain, Zangyue, you go to my palace, I can only temporarily aggrieve everyone." Prince Doris said apologetically.
"Understood, this happened too suddenly, and we need to rethink it," Zhang Xingxing replied.
About 20 guards came forward to escort us, and Doris took us to his palace.
Before leaving, Zhang Xingxing and Lao Du bowed to King Sidhu and Duke of Eton.
Everyone followed Prince Doris towards his palace.
"Wangyue, I will find time to let you go back. No matter what, I will never hand you over to the people of the Star Alliance." Prince Doris said to me secretly.
"Thank you brother, I'm not worried about this at all. I'm just a little disgusted and uncomfortable with the tactics of these politicians." I replied depressedly.
"You have to get used to it. These people's thoughts and ideas are too complicated, and I'm not used to them. But for the future of the empire, I can only force myself to learn." The prince continued to comfort me.
Soon, we were escorted to the prince's palace, which was located on one side of the main hall.
"Zangyue, Captain, please feel sorry for yourself here first. I have to rush to the combat command room to understand the situation." Prince Doris said hurriedly.
"Go quickly, we're fine." Zhang Xingxing replied.
The prince said this and left in a hurry.
"Cangyue, I saw that there are only 6 guards left outside. We have not unarmed ourselves. This is deliberately allowing us to escape." Zhang Baoer said immediately as soon as the prince left.
"How should we run now? Which side will we decide when we run out? Besides, we don't know how the battle is going to be." Lao Du said.
I walked to the window and looked up. I could only see the faint silhouette of the huge battleship changing positions in the sky, but the dazzling light produced by the powerful explosion in space was clearly visible from the ground.
"The battle should be very fierce." Master Jing standing next to me said.
"But we don't have a spaceship now, so we can't do anything." Duoduo analyzed.
"If possible, I hope to join the Alliance fleet and beat up the Eternal Stars." Titan said.
"The people in the Alliance are not good people either. They are all profit-seeking and unjust people." Daum added.
"That can't be generalized. General Edward and Kelly are both very good people." Zhang Xingxing said.
"Tais, what kind of medicine did the emperor sell in the gourd? He deceived us into sending an envoy and launched a surprise attack at the same time. Did he want to kill us?" Zhang Baoer asked, grabbing Tais's collar.
"I don't know, but I think there must be something inside that we don't know about." Tas replied.
"Paul, don't embarrass him. I feel like he doesn't know the details." I shouted to Zhang Paul.
"Cangyue, what should we do now? A fierce battle is going on above, and a group of us soldiers are locked up here waiting to be punished. What does this mean?" Zhang Baoer began to become anxious again.
"Captain, according to the current situation, I suggest that we need to find a way to escape first before making further plans." Lao Du suggested.
"How to escape? We don't have a spaceship at the moment." Zhang Xingxing said.
"It is impossible for such a big kingdom to be without spaceships and battleships. The guards at the door can knock them out and ask questions." Zhang Baoer said.
"No, no, no need to cause unnecessary trouble, I have an idea." I said.
"What plans do you have, tell me quickly." Zhang Baoer asked excitedly.
"Daom, your invisibility cloak is going to be used again. I'll use the jet device to take you and Dudi down to do some reconnaissance first. Everyone is waiting for me here." I said to everyone.
"If you don't, I want to go with you. Why do you have to be a hero all by yourself? If you don't take me with you, I will report you." Zhang Baoer acted like a child.
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this. How long has it been since someone had a childish temper?
"That's fine, you can take Zang Yue with you. I'll take care of him by the way. We'll cover you here," Zhang Xingxing said.
"Okay, as ordered." I replied.
The four of us immediately came to the window. Daum took out his invisibility cloak and handed one to me and Paul.
"Be prepared for invisible protection and prepare for action." I picked up Diudiu and said.
"Wait a minute, I won't cooperate with this fat man, he is not capable enough." Daum jumped up again.
"Well, carrying these two living treasures on a mission, I have troubles and nowhere to talk to." I thought to myself.
No longer arguing with anyone, I hugged Daum with all my strength. Daum put the invisibility cloak on his head, and the scene behind him was immediately reflected.
I turned on the energy of the jet device to the minimum, and slowly landed on the ground with Dom.
"Paul, are you following?" I asked through the communication system.
"I have landed successfully." Bao'er replied.
The battle in space was extremely fierce. I saw a bombed-out battleship, its shell falling into the atmosphere and burning with dazzling fire.
"There seems to be an exit from the palace on the wall ahead. Let's go and have a look." I ordered.
The two teams of invisible men immediately ran towards the exit of the palace.
I felt a very strange phenomenon. The battle was fierce in space, but the palace was silent and not a single person could be seen.
"Cangyue, it's so deserted in this palace, there's no one around," Zhang Baoer said.
"I feel strange too. Let's not worry about so much and find the aircraft first." I replied.
Soon, the four of us arrived at the exit of the wall. Since there were no guards, we all took off our invisibility cloaks.
Surprisingly, when we approached the exit, we found that the door here was firmly locked using a double-layer electromagnetic wave system.
We looked up and saw that the upper part of the wall was densely covered with electromagnetic wave jets, which ejected electromagnetic waves high into the sky to prevent outsiders from entering and could not see the edges, forming a solid wall system.
"My God, this is a first-class defense strength. I feel it is as good as the palace." Zhang Baoer exclaimed.
"No wonder we don't need guards here," I said.
"What's the point? Don't you have deformation protection? You can just go through it." Daum said.
"You dwarf, our system is for deformation protection. Look at the electromagnetic waves on this door. It's sealed tightly. How about some deformation method? Why don't you try it first?" Zhang Baoer yelled.
Daum, who did not understand the principle of transformation, suffered a secret loss and was so angry that he stopped chewing.
"Daom, I remember you said that the Gate of Time relies on the electromagnetic system on the planet of the Outcasts. With such a strong electromagnetic system here, can you directly use it?" I said to Daom.
"What kind of garbage electromagnetic wave is this? My teleportation is a very energy-consuming action. This energy is probably not enough, unless..." Daum said.
A more violent explosion sounded from the sky, and the frequent explosions made people feel anxious.
"Unless what." I asked a little impatiently.
"Well, this, this, add ten gold coins." Daum said hesitantly.
There was a slight "peng" sound, and Diudiu, who was secretly eating biscuits, dropped the whole bag of biscuits to the ground in shock.
"You short guy, gold coins and energy have nothing to do with each other. Why do you want money all the time?" Zhang Baoer was anxious.
"Gold coins are related to people's motivation. Isn't motivation not energy?" Daum quibbled.
"Deal, I'll give you ten gold coins." I said simply.
"No problem, take action immediately." Daum responded excitedly.
"I have been treated like a pig and killed all day long. From now on, I will also start working for a fee." Zhang Baoer said reluctantly.
I was in no mood to pay attention to Zhang Baoer, and the explosions in the sky became more and more intense.
Daum used the activation device to try to create a time gate. This guy wasn't lying. Unlike the electromagnetic systems on the Outcast Planet, it was indeed a bit difficult to create a time gate solely by relying on the electromagnetic energy on the fence system.
However, although this guy Daum is greedy for money, he still has two brushes. After a while, this guy actually successfully activated the energy bar, and a looming door of time appeared in front of us.
"Travel quickly, my energy won't last long." Daum shouted.
I was the first to take the lead in crossing over, followed closely by Paul and others.
Beyond the palace wall, there is a huge gray grassland open area. At the end of the open area, we actually saw a combat airport. The bird fighter jets of the Akaliut Kingdom army were rising and falling non-stop.
"Fortunately, we got out. There is an airport in the distance." Zhang Baoer said excitedly.
"Time is limited, act immediately, the target is to obtain a Bird fighter jet from the airport." I ordered.
The four people took action immediately, put on their invisibility cloaks and rushed to the airport.
The airport is about 3 kilometers away from us. We use the small jet boost system to quickly advance towards the airport.
Just when we were about to arrive at the airport, there was a huge roar in the sky. The four of us looked up and saw countless Holy Empire Galaxy-class battleships penetrating the atmosphere and heading towards the ground.
"No, the alliance army has been defeated, and the imperial army has broken through their defense line." Zhang Baoer shouted anxiously.
"It will probably be a big melee after the imperial army lands. We need to seize the fighter jets as soon as possible to ensure the safety of everyone in the exploration team." I shouted.
