Chapter 257 Using one's own spear to attack one's own shield

"What's going on? Why was Liang He so impulsive, rushing straight in like that?!"

Goring never expected that he would let the Azure Falcon take Liang He into the sky without him noticing.

The energy cannons fired from warships are no joke!
"Oh no, oh no, how am I going to explain this to Huo An and the others?!"

Göring, his face ashen, wished he were the one to be bombarded, so he wouldn't have to deal with the mess that followed.

"Boom!"

Having finally managed to get out of the swaying cabin, Chairman Lucas, eager to find out what was going on, hadn't even stood up properly when he heard Goring shouting, "It's all over, it's all over."

Frustrated by his son's lack of ambition, he lightly slapped him on the forehead.

"What do you mean it's over?! I'm not dead yet!"

Having weathered many storms, Chairman Lucas never believed they would lose until everything was settled.

"Oh dear! President, what brings you here to join the fun? Go back right now!"

There was an escape submarine beneath the naval vessel. Goring had already decided that if they couldn't escape, he would have Chairman Lucas lead a group of people to escape in the submarine.

We'll save as many as we can.

"You were just telling Liang He so confidently that you weren't afraid of anything, so why are you acting like you're about to die now?"

Liang He had previously ordered Golin to lead his men to evacuate, but he refused. Now, the rebels and ferocious beasts have completely surrounded them, and it's too late for them to escape.

"President...sigh! I was just trying to persuade Liang He to leave first!"

As the acting district chief, he had his own responsibilities, but Liang He wasn't from Skalan Star; he was there to help on a voluntary basis.

Now that they are in danger, it is reasonable to let her evacuate.

"The rebels' target has always been Liang He. If she leaves, the two sides might not fight each other."

Well, Goring did have a bit of wishful thinking. On one hand, he wanted to ensure Liang He's safe evacuation, and on the other hand, he hoped that the rebels would abandon the attack because Liang He wasn't there.

Do you think all the rebels are fools?

President Lucas glanced at him speechlessly.

The rebels have mobilized a large force this time, and even if Liang He is not present, they will not let this go easily.

"Alright, stop dawdling here and hurry back to the control room to contact Laila and Oko!"

Compared to the situation on the sea, Chairman Lucas was more worried about the situation in the strange sea area.

The rebel army and the ferocious beasts' attack are both in the open, but the hidden dangers lurking in the strange sea are unknown to anyone.

"But Liang He..."

Hesitantly, Goring once again focused his gaze on the blue falcon soaring in the sky and Liang He.

They worked together very well, always able to anticipate the bombing direction of the warships and effectively avoid them.

"Can't you see? Liang He is taking advantage of Ace's desire for revenge, making them bombard the ferocious beasts on the sea with energy cannons."

Liang He has never been a reckless person. There must be a reason why she directly provoked Ace and even charged at the warship alone.

Amidst the panicked crowd, the only one who saw through her scheme was Chairman Lucas, who knew her relatively well and was also meticulous.

"Huh? It really is!"

Reminded by Chairman Lucas, Goring also noticed that the number of ferocious beasts gathering around them was decreasing.

So they were all killed by the rebels themselves?

"Then I'll go up and contact Leila and the others right away."

Upon learning that Liang He had not acted impulsively, Golin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when he was about to head to the control room, he started to dawdle again.

"President, are you sure you can manage alone? Why don't you go and find some peace and quiet? Where's Rick? I haven't seen him."

Rick, who used to be inseparable from Chairman Lucas, was nowhere to be found, which made Goring a little worried.

"Could he be following Liang He's example and going off to do something dangerous?"

“…Deputy District Chief Goring, you really think too highly of me.”

Rick, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, shrugged and shook his head helplessly.

"The situation was urgent just now, it's normal that you didn't notice me."

He'd been pacing back and forth between the deck and the cabin from the very beginning. "Is that so? Then please take good care of the chairman, and hide immediately if there's any danger! I'm off!"

After entrusting Chairman Lucas to Rick's care, Göring rushed back to the control room.

Minister Ace, who held the upper hand, was in a rather unpleasant mood at this moment.

"Damn it! How dare she play me?!"

Upon seeing the message from the personal terminal, Ace, who also realized that he had been deceived by Liang He, was so angry that he smashed his cup.

"Give the order to cease bombing!"

If the bombing continues like this, we don't know if Liang He will die, but the ferocious beasts are almost all wiped out.

"Go! Target the naval vessels!"

Since he can't kill Liang He, he'll deal with that bunch of good-for-nothings first!
He refused to believe that Liang He could let those good-for-nothings go unchecked!
"Yes!"

Upon receiving the order, the control room began to shift the bombing target to the naval vessel.

"Langton, it seems we've been discovered."

Liang He realized immediately that Ace had changed his target.

She gently pursed her lips, looking at the large number of ferocious beast corpses floating on the sea, and felt a little sad.

If possible, she also hopes to save their lives and rescue them once a cure for the ferocious beasts is successfully developed.

But the situation is pressing, and she is no saint; she must make sacrifices.

[Liang He! I advise you to surrender obediently, otherwise I'll first use the blood of these worthless trash to vent my hatred!]

Ace shouted at Liang He again.

It seems he's determined to kill them this time and won't let them go no matter what.

"Ace, how about we make a deal?"

Liang He, unhurried and unhurried, had Landon lead her to a position close to Ace.

She really didn't want to shout her answer to him; it would strain her voice. It would be better for the two of them to talk through the glass window.

As for why they didn't choose to return to the warship, it was naturally because they were afraid that Ace would capture them all.

"A deal? Ha! Liang He, you don't actually think I'd fall for your tricks again, do you?!"

Having learned his lesson the hard way and nearly lost his life last time, Ace is determined not to be a fool this time.

"You don't need to stall any longer. I've already tampered with the warships the Federation forces brought. Even if they come, they'll just be destroying themselves!"

Having decided to launch the attack, Ace certainly couldn't have done nothing but make plans.

He was hoping to use this battle to restore his reputation and standing within the rebel army.

"It seems you've really learned your lesson."

Faced with a formidable enemy, Liang He was in a dilemma for a moment.

Seeing her disappointed expression, Ace felt even better.

"Haha! Liang He, if you're willing to obediently accept your death, I might leave you with a complete corpse, how about it?"

Right now, Ace is like someone playing a cat-and-mouse game.

He was pleased to see Liang He, who was being manipulated, doing foolish things in her death throes, in order to please him.

"Tsk, it doesn't seem very good."

Liang He looked at Ace, who seemed confident of victory, and shook her head with feigned profundity.

"Ace, how can you be so sure I don't have a backup plan?"

"What do you mean?!"

Sensing something was wrong, Ace immediately looked around warily and repeatedly checked with the control room to confirm the surrounding activity.

Only after receiving a message that there were no abnormalities did he glare fiercely at Liang He again.

"Are you kidding me again?!"

Just when Ace thought Liang He was bluffing and trying to buy time...

Suddenly, he noticed a huge wave rising on the sea. In the azure ocean, it seemed as if a giant dragon from the abyss was staring at him with terrifying eyes.
