Counterattack [Interstellar]

For a long time, Allen thought that the incident on the Pearl was a premeditated and organized accident. Allen and Anthony had spent a lot of effort, but they couldn't find out who was behind the attack on the Pearl. There have been different opinions about the identity of the original attackers for many years, but there is one thing that everyone is sure of and has never doubted. It has been so sure for ten years...they came for Allen.

And just last night, this conclusion was overturned by the star thief himself.

The star thief's name is Benjamin. He admitted that he was also on the enemy ship at the time. At that time, they received the order: kill His Royal Highness Allen, and capture the accompanying officer Major General Pei Yao alive. If there is a conflict between the two, the latter will be given priority.

Allen had a lot of questions, but Benjamin couldn't answer anything else. Naturally, Allen would not believe what a star thief said. He tried everything last night and almost killed Benjamin several times, but Benjamin He only said these useful things over and over again, as for the others, he didn't know at all.

Benjamin was originally a mercenary. In an accident, he accidentally killed the boss who hired him. Benjamin fled in fear of crime. Since then, he has become a "wild mercenary". Most of the tasks received are not easy to see, and this situation is even worse after leaving the organization. Benjamin’s daily work is almost the same as that of a star thief, so when he heard about the deal to attack the Pearl, Benjamin thought I didn't want to, so I agreed.

Anyway, I usually rob houses, but this time I just made it bigger, and the boss gave me more money, so why not do it?These are the exact words of Benjamin.

According to Benjamin, there were more than 100 of them at the time, and nearly a hundred of them were the boss's private soldiers. They had advanced weapons and strong combat capabilities. They were not at the same level as Benjamin's foreign part-timers, and they rarely spoke. Occasionally, the communication is limited to their own people, so the starships are almost clear-cut. Everyone wears the same clothes, equips the same guns and eats the same food, but it can be seen at a glance where it is dialed.

It was at that time that Benjamin realized that something was wrong. In terms of combat arrangements, the boss separated them all. Naturally, the work with a high risk factor was assigned to these stragglers. There was no reply, but the broker who introduced him here assured him with a pat on the chest that there would be absolutely no problem. The boss was just protecting his weaknesses habitually, the tasks were carefully arranged, and the loss of personnel would not be too great.

The huge mercenary money allowed Benjamin to stay and participate in that operation, but everyone knew...killing Alan and capturing Pei Yao alive, they failed to do any of them.

"I was supposed to be the third group to board the Pearl, but the garrison at Victoria Harbor had already arrived, so we had no choice but to give up." Benjamin looked at Alan with red eyes and prayed humbly, "Although I didn't Board the ship, but I know the situation over there. Our people only hurt you, and didn't have much impact on you. As for your princess, Major General Pei Yao... we didn't even touch him, we didn't Success...please forgive me..."

Hearing this, Allen released a few tentacles of mental power, which repeatedly pierced into Benjamin's brain fiercely!

Allen's eyes were red, and he wished he could peel off Benjamin's skin. These idiots mistakenly took Pei Yao, who was holding his communication device, for himself, and almost killed him!

Benjamin screamed in despair, and it took a long time for Allen to restrain his anger and let him go.

"Who is your boss?" Allen said coldly, with dark eyes, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, we can continue."

"I said, I said!" There is no punishment that can destroy a person more than a mental attack. Benjamin's face was pale, and he quickly responded when he heard the words, but after he agreed, he was speechless and said in a daze, "I really don't know... I I have never seen him! The boss is not often on the ship, and only his own private soldiers occasionally appear, and he will never see us... Your Highness! What I said is true! I have never seen him!"

Benjamin was on the verge of collapse, and any stimulus might drive him crazy. Allen looked into his eyes firmly, and said coldly after making sure that he was not lying: "Continue to talk."

The following words are even less valuable. After that operation failed, they fled all the way, and only after a month did they completely get rid of the people of the empire. At that time, there were only seven mercenaries on the starship, and Benjamin was one of them. one.

At that time, Benjamin could feel the hostility of those private soldiers towards him all the time. Benjamin was sure that if they hadn’t shown some strength while fleeing, those private soldiers would probably kill them all. After defeating the people of the Empire, Benjamin sneaked into the belly of the starship, got into a space shuttle and escaped.

After wandering for a few years, Benjamin took refuge in Darren, the leader of the Star Bandits, and spent a few years of leisurely life. Who knew that Darren would also attack Alan in the future. Once Benjamin was bitten by a snake, he refused to stay here He got involved in the matter, but he never expected that Darren would also fall into Alan's hands. After Darren's death, the original organization collapsed, and life without a leader was difficult. During the operation, he was captured by Admiral Balck.

Benjamin thought he would spend the rest of his life in Bradman Prison, but by chance, he met Allen again.

"Your Highness... I really said it all. For you, it is..." Benjamin's voice trembled, "It's about the guide... I will never say it outside, please forgive me, please forgive me..."

Benjamin was the only person he knew who participated in the attack on the Pearl that year. His life was worth a fortune. Allen didn't kill him in the end, but let Balker take care of him.

The interrogation didn't last long, and Allen didn't come back until midnight, thinking over Benjamin's words in Bradman Prison.

The possibility of lying under his own intensity of interrogation is very low. Allen first defaulted that what Benjamin said was the truth, and then reversed the accident ten years ago.

The whereabouts of the "boss" in Benjamin's mouth are mysterious, and outsiders like Benjamin will not be able to see his face. Being able to have his own army, starship, and the most advanced ordnance shows that his identity is unusual. From this point of view, Allen didn't think that this person would hire star robbers due to lack of manpower. It's very possible...he just didn't want to lose his manpower, so he would rather pay ten times the price to let outsiders die.

A "boss" who cherishes his subordinates very much.

Of course, it’s also possible that he didn’t want the bodies of his own people to be left on the Pearl after the operation failed. According to what Benjamin said, his personal soldiers are very distinctive. Maybe someone will infer the identity of the boss from their bodies.

These are not what Alan cares about the most. The most important thing Benjamin told him is... the boss's order: kill Alan and capture Pei Yao. When you have to choose one of the two, give priority to the latter.

Alan felt a slight chill in his heart. Although it was unbelievable, he had an answer, ready to come out.
