King of the Stars [Rebirth]

A planet is coming to an end.The antimatter annihilation bomb penetrates the mantle and detonates in the hot molten lava of the Earth's core.The nuclear explosion happened instantly.The gray-black third-class star began to vibrate and crack, and the deadly high temperature and ground fissures swallowed up all vital signs. The star emitted a dazzling white light, burning like a supernova explosion.

The strong light penetrated the distant starry sky, but the erupting halo lasted only a few minutes before it began to distort, forming a new gravitational lens in an instant.This is the sign of a black hole forming, and it is the end of everything.

Inside the bridge, there was deathly silence.Everyone opened their eyes wide, held their breath, and stared at the terrifying scene in front of them.No one could speak, language was too pale in the face of tragedy.They are all strong fighters who have spanned countless light years and fought in the universe.But at this moment, what is happening in front of us is definitely not a "war".

Suddenly, piercing sirens pierced the silence.As if waking up suddenly from a nightmare, the radar monitor said with difficulty: "Your Excellency, the main force of the Covenant fleet has been swallowed by the black hole formed by the explosion, and there are still 30 minutes before the black hole spreads. Request instructions..."

They were too close to the black hole to withdraw to a safe distance.

Of course, before this scene happened, no one thought that there would be a black hole.According to the original plan, they should go to the asteroid belt not far away, stop the enemy there, and launch a lure and annihilation battle.But now, nothing is necessary.

"The whole ship retreats." A voice echoed in the bridge, like the clouds before a storm, containing thunder and biting chill.

Everyone shivered involuntarily, avoiding their eyes, and numbly carried out the work at hand, as if they wanted to use this order to cover up the wavering in their hearts.No one raised an objection, and no one dared to refute.Fear is more powerful than all things.

The man in the chief seat didn't notice this, he stood up stiffly, and walked towards the captain's room.

Along the way, no one dared to stand in front of him.It only took a few minutes to get from the bridge to the captain's cabin.Before the automatic door closed, he said sharply: "Connect to the floating city!"

This is the border area, a few light-years away from the floating city in the core area of ​​the Federation, and most of the ultra-long-distance communications are useless.However, before he finished speaking, a figure appeared in the projector in the middle of the hall.Gray-haired, stooped shoulders, looks like he is about to die.That was an old man, an old man that not many people in Landa Starfield would dare to despise.The big steward of the Oswald family is also the most powerful person in the floating city after the "Oswalds".

It's just that for the person in front of him, his weight is obviously not enough.

As if guessing that there would be this call, Saran nodded politely like a competent housekeeper: "Your Excellency Marshal, Your Excellency is waiting for you in the Winter Hall."

The angle of view of the camera changed slightly, and another figure appeared in the virtual image.Just like the eternal glaciers and mountains behind him, the man sat peacefully at the end of the garden, his blond hair was shining brightly against the ice and snow, like a flowing golden crown, there was no emotion in his deep green eyes, only the calmness as always.

This calm fueled anger.

"Is it your order? Annihilation bomb! That is a third-class star! A mine star that has not transferred its population! How dare you?!" The anger could no longer be concealed, and the handsome face like a sculpture shattered, bursting out Blazing magma.

However, this anger did not reach the other side of the camera.On the contrary, the god-like man turned his head slightly and raised a smile: "Because this is the easiest way. Nisrock, someone must do what should be done."

"What should be done? That's millions of innocent lives!" His fists were clenched, and deep-seated hatred shone in the same green eyes.

This is no longer war, but massacre, a crime against humanity.He's a soldier, not a butcher!He never thought of winning in such a way!

Anger was thrown in vain, as if thrown on a mirror.The man replied flatly: "It has already happened."

This is the conclusion, a reality that cannot be changed.

The words pierced the chest like a sharp spear, and the blond marshal swayed before he stabilized his steps: "I can't accept it!"

"You've accepted, Nisrock. That's why you contacted me here, not on the bridge."

Like a brave fighter, he can scold the supreme ruler of the Federation, his father, in front of the entire ship.Use anger to denounce, use law to accuse, even like a moral benchmark, take off your epaulets, throw them on the ground, and leave this dirty lair.

But he didn't, he came to the captain's room.Alone.

At this moment, he has already made a choice.

Seeing his son shrouded in dead silence, Grand Duke Landasia smiled, and said with a chuckle: "Nisrock, you are the most like me, more like me than imagined. It has already happened, don't let these lives be sacrificed in vain .”

There was even some hypocritical compassion in the man's tone.A bone-chilling chill penetrated from the soles of his feet, piercing his heart.Perhaps when he chose to embark on this path, everything was doomed.He can't give up.After ten years of fighting, how many starships have fallen, how many lives have withered, and there are millions of innocent dead souls.

He couldn't let go at this moment and let everything fall back to square one.

His feet were already covered with bones, and his knees were flooded with blood.He has walked on this road leading to the abyss for too long, and he has long been unable to pull out his feet.

"Destroy the Star Alliance, find the last rough stone, and end the war." The voice paused, and added, "Looking forward to your return in victory, Marshal Oswald."

He didn't use "Nisrock" anymore, and this title was like an iron whip with barbs, slapping him hard.The unyielding figure trembled slightly, and lowered its golden head.

In front of him, the virtual image flickered slightly, disappearing like flying ash.The silvery white peaks, the magnificent halls, and the god-like images all disappeared.Only a cold solitude remained.

After an unknown amount of time, the voice sounded again.

"As per your order, my father."
