Ninth class citizen

Chapter 352 He has confidence in me
Major General Giroud saw that Nan Rong remained as steady as Mount Tai even at this critical moment, showing no intention of escaping whatsoever, and couldn't help but secretly laugh at her foolishness.

The self-destruction of the six CD-class warships released energy almost equivalent to the collapse of a small-mass star, and even several nearby star systems were affected by the shockwave. Unless the warp drive was activated, there was no chance of survival.

Of course, he himself would not escape this fate either, but being able to take Nan Rong with him to die was already the best outcome.

Major General Giroud naturally didn't offer any reminders, and instead chimed in, "Is there even a question? Of course, it's because His Majesty the President is just playing around with you; he has no real feelings for you whatsoever."

"Giroud!" Yuan Hong roared, "Is that something you should be saying?"

“That’s the truth, anyone with eyes can see it—what can’t be said?” Major General Giroud was happy to continue stalling for time.

"No wonder those people sent you to assassinate me." Nan Rong sneered, "With this kind of intelligence, if you weren't born into the Holmes family, how could you possibly become a legion commander?"

"Don't beat around the bush." ​​Major General Giroud crossed his arms, secretly calculating the time.

With twenty seconds left before each ship self-destructs, she probably won't be able to say more than a few words before being torn to shreds by the force of the explosions.
Nan Rong seemed to see through his thoughts and shook his head: "Naturally, it's because Tian Li has absolute confidence in my abilities."

Giroud was amused by her audacity. An eighteen-year-old girl, so young and fresh-faced, dared to talk about ability in front of him?

He's just a second-tier materials expert. He might be used to being praised on those ninth-rank stars, but in the capital star system, he's nothing.

"Your abilities?" He laughed until tears welled up in his eyes, whether from Nan Rong's words or from the impending end, it was hard to tell.

However, before he could finish laughing, he suddenly felt dizzy and unable to control himself. When everything finally calmed down, he found himself standing in front of Nan Rong.

Even his adjutant, whose usually sharp and calm eyes were now filled with barely suppressed horror.

On their opposite side stood Gu Chen.

He was no longer bound and was silently rubbing his wrists, a faint look of doubt flickering in his eyes.

Major General Giroud, being a man of great experience, had by now roughly guessed what had just happened.

This speculation itself is baffling.

"Are you a space-type superhuman?" He ignored the ring of energy gun barrels aimed at him, his hawk-like gaze fixed on Nan Rong:

"Is the ability to move people over long distances achieved through spatial traction?"

Spatial Traction is a fifth-order spatial system extraordinary technique.

Spatial ability users are already rare, and those who can reach the fifth level or above are even rarer. I never expected that the girl Tian Li chose would have such strength. No wonder she has always been so fearless.

“No!” He immediately raised his head again: “At the same time, pulling the target from two different directions, it might not be possible to do it at the fifth level.”

As Giroud continued to reason, his expression became increasingly complicated:
"Also, the spaceship was completely unharmed under the barrage of numerous energy cannons; could it have used that seventh-order phase?"

He wasn't a spatial ability user after all, and he only remembered a few words about this high-level spatial ability, so he couldn't explain it completely.

But the mere fact that it was a seventh-tier spatial extraordinary skill was enough to leave everyone on the ship speechless.

Nan Rong laughed: "Good eye. It is indeed a seventh-order phase shift."

Actually, there are still some minor discrepancies. A simple seventh-order phase shift can indeed transfer all energy attacks received at a designated location to an alternate dimension, but the coverage area may not be that large, and the duration of the effect may not be that long.

However, Nan Rong is not a true space-type superhuman; she only needs to apply the effect of the skill. As for the difference between them, probably few people can explain it clearly.

Because there are probably no more than a handful of space-type extraordinary beings of the seventh rank or above in the entire plane, and the most powerful among them is, of course, Tian Li himself. The same skill would only be more powerful when used by him, so it's impossible for him to deliberately expose Nan Rong.

Yuan Hong and Gu Chen had both participated in the inter-school league of Xiluoxing, and now, thinking back on it, they felt a little dazed.

At that time, Nan Rong was also very outstanding and exceptional, making her hard to ignore.

But that kind of excellence was tangible and visible, unlike the dazzling brilliance of today, which makes people look up to it, just like facing His Majesty Tianli.

Everyone on the C101 spaceship, as well as the officers on the five C-class warships, silently lowered their heads and bowed to Nan Rong.

Compared to simply being the president's fiancée, Nan Rong's own formidable strength is more likely to win their hearts and minds.

Identity and strength complement each other and are both indispensable.

In contrast to their barely suppressed excitement, Major General Giroud and his adjutant looked utterly ashen-faced.

This was not only because of Nan Rong's status as a seventh-order space-type superhuman, but also because time had passed and all the ships were still in good condition, showing no signs of self-destruction.

This indicates that there were skilled hackers on board the C101 spacecraft who managed to crack the command system and cancel the self-destruct program.

The plan has now completely failed. Not only can they not deal with Nan Rong, they can't even find a few more scapegoats.

Major General Giroud gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot as he looked up: "If you have such abilities, why didn't you say so earlier?"

If he had known beforehand, he would never have rashly gone to their door to ambush and kill them. He would have planned much more thoroughly and would never have been present in person.
She might even have a good talk with her mother and realize that she doesn't necessarily have to do this. Tiffany doesn't necessarily want to marry into the royal family. No one wants to create such a powerful enemy.

By the way, he wasn't actually at the end of his rope.

His mother, Ms. Tian Zhengzi, was Tian Li's aunt.

And Tianli is his own cousin!
Although my cousin seems aloof, he values ​​family ties; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone out of his way to promote me to command the Fourth Army.
Major General Giroud believed that he never intended to betray Tianli; he only wanted to get rid of women who were not suitable for him.

This kind of behavior should be understandable and forgivable.

Thinking of this, Major General Giroud straightened his back and calmly allowed the soldiers to put the restraints on him. He then said meaningfully to Nan Rong:

"I admit you're very strong, but you're still a long way from turning your fiancée into a real First Lady."

His thoughts could not be hidden from Nan Rong now.

She found it laughable, but was too lazy to argue, so she simply waved her hand, and someone took the person away.

"Little girl, don't think that strength is everything!" Giru shouted from afar, "You should leave yourself some leeway. Don't make things so ugly and put His Majesty Tianli in a difficult position!"

Nan Rong pretended not to hear and tossed a vial of gene repair fluid to Gu Chen.

Without hesitation, the latter used the medicine, and the previous superficial injuries visibly healed.

Major General Giroud's words did not affect Nam Yong, but the others were somewhat moved.

The spaceship set off again, and six warships from the First Division of the First Army volunteered to act as the escort fleet.

"Ms. Nan," Gu Chen hesitated for a moment before asking, "If I may be so bold as to ask, how do you plan to handle today's events?"
