Lost Starry Sky

When the gravity in the command module was restored, the knife in Van Owen's hand was already under Augustine's neck.

No one knew why this happened suddenly, and no one dared to take up arms again—except Hall.He snatched a gun the moment it hit the ground, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed in Van Owen's direction.

Van Owen seemed to take Hall's aim in disapproval.He pressed the blade firmly against Augustine's carotid artery and said to the snipers, "Get out."

The tone is still so foolish, but the cowardice when he first came in has completely disappeared.

Augustine struggled and nodded.Immediately the snipers opened the hatches and filed out; only Hall remained motionless.Holding the gun firmly in his hand, "Van Owen! Stop playing! Let go of your majesty! I warn you! No matter how fast your knife is, it will not be as fast as my gun!"

Van Owen was unmoved: "Close the door. I have something to tell him."

"Let go, Your Majesty!"

Augustine and Van Owen said in unison: "Close the door!"

Hall stepped back step by step, still facing Van Owen and Augustine, and closed the hatch with his hands behind his back.

"Your Majesty, I believe all this is just a misunderstanding—" He looked at Van Owen anxiously, "He is just a lunatic who collects garbage!"

After I finished speaking, I felt extremely ridiculous.

He never realized that Van Owen would become so important.At such a critical time, he was actually willing to explain to Van Owen.

Fan Owen blew his beard and smiled, "Well, I am a lunatic who collects garbage, and he is a lunatic who sits on the throne."

"Wellington!" Augustine's voice trembled with fear, "So what if you kill me? The whole empire knows you are a traitor! Do you think you can leave alive?"

Hall's voice turned into a roar, "Van Owen! Tell Your Majesty! You are not the Duke of Wellington! Let Your Majesty go! Otherwise, I will shoot!"

"Sorry, I am."

Hall: "..."

"Otherwise, how do you think I hacked into the gravity system of this battleship?"

"That thread..."

Hall suddenly remembered——

Van Owen asked if he could refuel from the Leslie, and he said yes.After jumping onto the Leslie, Van Owen plugged a wire into the external interface of the Leslie before getting up.

All this was planned by him? !

But since he was the Duke of Wellington, it was impossible for him not to know how dangerous it would be to come back—why did he dare to show up so swaggeringly?

Van Owen, however, does not seem to want to discuss the issue any further.He sighed, lowered his head and leaned into Augustine's ear and asked, "Augustine, have you seen his loyalty? Do you still think he has something wrong with you?"

The topic suddenly turned to Hall, and Hall couldn't turn the corner.

Augustine actually thought he was disloyal to the royal family?

He responded immediately: "You are talking nonsense! When did Your Majesty doubt me?"

Van Owen couldn't help but burst into a "poof" laugh.

Augustine's face was ashen, and he said nothing.Van Owen shook his head, "The needles implanted in the skulls of lieutenant generals and above are both trackers and murder weapons. If you lose contact with the base for more than 48 hours, it will emit lethal rays to kill your brain. This is to prevent high-level The general was captured alive by the enemy and revealed the secret. So now you know why the senior general never came back once he disappeared?"

Hall's hand trembled.

"There are still many things you don't know. For example, your battleship was not completely damaged - I analyzed the communication records of the battleship and found that there is a string of garbled codes in front of the false information sent to you, which represents the real information sent. Institution. Actually, it’s not garbled characters, read all the characters upside down and it’s ‘Black Butterfly’. What does ‘Black Butterfly’ refer to, don’t I need to tell you?”

Hall's lips trembled, and he murmured, "The highest security place."

A national security agency that reports directly to the emperor.

After holding the gun for a long time, he finally put it down slowly.

"Your Majesty, is it really you—wanted me to die on purpose?"

Augustine's fingers flicked across the monitor screen.The screen changed instantly, and Hall was startled.

"These are all the information you have collected in the past three years, and they are all related to the accident in Wellington. Do you dare to say that you are not suspicious of me?"

"I—never doubted His Majesty!"

Cold sweat broke out from Hall's back.Although he always believed that it was definitely not an accident, he never thought that Augustine would do it!

Augustine then went on angrily: "'I hope Your Majesty is half as decisive as the Duke of Wellington', 'It would be great if the Duke of Wellington was still alive'...Do you dare to say that you didn't say these words yourself? Do you dare to say Aren't you always looking at Wellington? Let me ask you, what would you do if you finally found out that I was the one who set out to get rid of Wellington? You said I was waiting for you to find out the truth and then take your department Come down to avenge Wellington, or strike first?"

Van Owen raised his eyebrows in shock: "No way, you want to kill him because you are jealous of me?"

Hall loosened his hand.The gun in his hand fell to the ground.

Something seemed to be shattering in my mind, and the whole world collapsed.

——If it’s just for him to die, why should those subordinates who have followed him for many years be buried with him?

Bloomberg can already be promoted to lieutenant colonel.Dominic is waiting to go home and marry his fiancée.All looking forward to the next vacation with family...  

The lives of hundreds of people, their beautiful lives, were buried in the cold and dark universe.

He thought of the explosion and the screams of the soldiers, and his headache was splitting.

What is the point of fighting all these years?What is the meaning of his existence?

So many people died because of him, but he survived by luck.

"what----"

He lay on his stomach and slammed his forehead to the ground.He felt sad, not because he was betrayed by Augustine, but because of those comrades who died innocently.

It was he who killed them.

"Hall, Hall, Hall!"

There was a layer of blood in front of his eyes.The pain woke him up.

He heard Van Owen calling him loudly, with concern in his voice.

He jumped up, picked up the gun that had been thrown aside, and aimed the aiming light at Augustine's head.

Van Owen sighed and said, "Calm down. This is not the time to go crazy."

Augustine put on an expression that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and said, "If you want to kill it, kill it. With you two buried with me, my death is not too bad."

Van Owen asked back: "When did I say I was going to kill you? Do you really think that everyone in the world is as boring and shameless as you?"

Hall suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Van Owen, looking up at him with teary eyes: "His Royal Highness, Duke of Wellington! Please take back what you deserve, and I will follow to the death!"

Fan Ouwen stared wide-eyed, "Hey, I didn't say to—"

Hall decisively interrupted him: "I want to avenge my brothers who died!"

"and many more!"

The moment the red dot aimed at Augustine's forehead, Augustine shouted, "The old man is still alive!"

"I know."

Van Owen kicked Hall's gun without hesitation.However, at the moment of his action, Augustine grabbed his wrist and twisted it hard, and the thin light blade stabbed his shoulder deeply.

Hall yelled, "Your Highness!"

Bright red blood spurted out.Hall's anger accumulated to the extreme, he picked up the laser gun, and the gun barrel hit Augustine hard on the back of the head.Augustine's whole body softened, and he slid slowly.

Hall rushed over, took off his clothes and wrapped them around Van Owen's wound.Even his lips turned white, and he said intermittently, trembling all over his body: "I...can hold...hold... hold him...back...back to the garbage ship..."
