"Oops, the Lightning is falling, and its flotation device seems to have been damaged!"
Suddenly, a black-armored Yasan warrior shouted in horror.
Everyone in the food cabin realized that the situation was not good this time, and they immediately rushed towards the deck of the Lightning.
The Asan Empire's 'Lightning' was indeed falling, because the Sark people directly below it were attacking from all directions this time, instead of just firing in the direction of the 'Lightning''s food compartment.
Obviously, something happened among the Sark people, which caused them to open fire on the "Lightning" just to support Yi Chen at the beginning, and now they are now facing a head-on confrontation with the Asan Empire.
"Boom!"
Under the rifle fire of tens of thousands of Sak warriors, the wooden hull structure of the 'Lightning' could not withstand it at all, and cabins were constantly damaged. In one of the cabins at the center of the 'Lightning', a sudden explosion occurred. big Bang.
The huge hull of the 'Lightning' suddenly changed from a slow fall to a rapid fall.
At the same time, on the deck of the 'Lightning', Knight and the black-armored Asan warriors of the King's Guards just returned to the 'Manta Ray'. It was the turn of Slamu and everyone on the 'Lightning' to evacuate. To the 'Manta Ray'.
However, Knight suddenly ordered to cut off the long wooden bridge connecting the "Lightning" and the "Strayfish", and Slam and others were not allowed to retreat. He said with a cold face:
"Slamu, the aerostat of the 'Lightning' has exploded. Soon all the aerostats inside it will be burned, and the crash of the 'Lightning' is inevitable. Slamu, as the captain of the 'Lightning' , like other captains of the Asan Empire, have the consciousness to live and die with their own sky sail battleships. Slam, in the name of the king of the Asan Empire, I now order you to lead your men, As the 'Lightning' crashes into Zion City, go and kill those nasty purple-skinned beasts, there must be no mistakes!"
As soon as Knight finished speaking, the dozens of black-armored Yasan warriors on the deck of the Devil Fish who were preparing to deal with Yi Chen immediately raised their rifles and opened fire at the long wooden bridge. The long wooden bridge completely interrupted.
Most of the "Lightning"'s aerostat has been damaged, and it has lost most of its aerodynamic ability. It only maintains a certain stability by pulling on the long wooden bridge connected to the "Stella Ray". Now the long wooden bridge As soon as the bridge was broken, the 'Lightning' immediately became a free fall, crashing towards Zion City below from an altitude of nearly 100 meters.
At this falling speed, Slamu and everyone on board the Lightning would have to fall to death when they hit the ground. How could they have a chance to fight the Sacks!
Knight stood on the deck of the Manta Ray, looking down expressionlessly at the Lightning that was heading towards Zion City. Seeing the frightened Slamu and others, he murmured to himself:
"You are all loyal to the Asan Empire. This is a supreme honor. The empire will never forget you!"
At this moment, Saint Priest Jevich in white robes came to Knight's side. He heard everything and prayed devoutly for everyone on the Lightning.
This was not the first time that Saint Priest Jevich had done this. He couldn't even remember how many times he had done similar things during Knight's constant war.
Knight is conceited and arrogant. He does not allow himself to be stained. In order to maintain his image of being powerful, glorious, invincible, and omniscient, someone must always be the one to take the blame for his mistakes and failures.
There is no doubt that the operation led by Knight to hunt down Putuomel and capture Yichen alive failed. Slamu and everyone on board the Lightning were witnesses.
In order to make up stories in the future, in order to prevent today's truth from being leaked, and in order to find someone to take the blame for his failure, Knight naturally did not allow Slam and everyone on the Lightning to survive, so he simply used Yasang In the name of the empire's righteousness, let them fall to death together with the 'Lightning'!
The reason why Holy Priest Jevich is still alive after knowing many of Knight's secrets is because Jevich is the link between the Asan Empire and the Sun God, and Knight does not dare to kill Jevich.
The black-armored Asan warriors of the King's Guards aboard the Manta Ray are all Knight's close confidants. They are loyal and reliable. They will not betray Knight until death, and Knight does not need to guard against them.
Knight was unwilling to take the time to save everyone on board the Lightning. In fact, there was another important reason, that is, he wanted to crash the huge Lightning as quickly as possible so as to win precious gold for the Stingray's retreat. time.
Just now, the Manta Ray was about the same height as the Lightning. The reason why it was not attacked by the Sacks was because it was hiding behind the Lightning. If the 'Manta Ray' keeps dragging the 'Lightning' with the long wooden bridge, then the 'Manta Ray' itself will not be able to increase its altitude to dodge the Sacks' bullets. When the hull of the 'Lightning' was beaten to pieces, the 'Manta Ray' also ushered in its end.
As a heroic king, Knight was outstanding in commanding battles and power struggles. He thought of the optimal countermeasures within a short time of retreating from the Lightning to the Manta Ray.
The saddest thing in this matter is Slam.
Slam is usually the most calculating and careful with his life, and he is also good at pleasing his superiors. Therefore, after Gildas died unexpectedly, he naturally became the new captain of the Lightning. He thought he would be able to rise to the top from now on, but he never imagined that he would be discarded by Knight without hesitation like a rag after being the captain for less than a day.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, that's probably it. No matter how scheming you are, you can't compare to one of the king's thoughts.
Things turned out just as Knight expected. When the huge hull of the Lightning hit the ground in Zion City, it almost obscured the entire sky from the sight of the Sac warriors who were shooting. In order not to be hit by the "Lightning", tens of thousands of Sak warriors had no choice but to flee in all directions. How could they think of shooting again?
The 'Manta Ray' took this opportunity to quickly rise into the sky and did not stop until an altitude of 500 meters. At this altitude, the rifle had no way to defeat the sky sail battleship.
"Boom!"
The huge hull of the "Lightning" hit several high-rise buildings in Zion City. The buildings and the hull broke at the same time, making loud noises. Some Sak soldiers who could not escape were hit by heavy objects such as flying bricks, huge trees, and naval guns, and died on the spot.
Fortunately, only a small number of Sak soldiers died, and most of them only suffered some flesh wounds.
When the smoke and dust dispersed, they saw the dilapidated huge hull of the "Lightning" resting on a building and falling on the street. It made a "squeaking" sound from time to time because its wooden keel was bent too much. Because of ruthlessness.
The few surviving black-armored Yasan warriors scrambled out of the cabin, fearing that the Lightning's keel would break and the hull collapse, killing them.
As soon as they left the 'Lightning', they were caught by some Sac warriors who arrived immediately.
Soon, these Sak warriors escorted several black-armored Asan warriors to Chief Takas.
Chief Takas had some burns on his body and an angry look on his face. He spoke sternly in the common language of alien worlds that he was not very fluent in:
"Your 'Lightning' crashed. Where is the guy who fired the light blue beam? Was he killed?"
Several black-armored Asan warriors looked at each other in confusion at first, and then understood what Chief Takas meant. They were all chess pieces abandoned by Knight, and naturally they would not hide it for Knight. One of the black-armored Asan warriors said:
"The light blue beam is the 'Thunder Storm' launched by Knight, the king of the Asan Empire. When the 'Lightning' crashed, Knight escaped on the 'Manta Ray'!"
This black-armored Asan warrior was very attentive. As he answered, he raised his hand and pointed at a black shadow the size of a millstone in the sky.
Chief Takas looked up in the direction of the black-armored Asan warrior's finger and found that the height of the 'Strayfish' exceeded the range of the rifle. Then he lowered his head and said with regret:
"Datu Austin, I'm sorry for letting Nate run away. But don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation!"
As Chief Takas spoke, he glanced sadly at a strong corpse beside him.
There was a big hole as thick as a wrist on the chest of the corpse, which went from the front to the back. Blood is still seeping out of the big hole. There was a shocked expression on the corpse's face. You can imagine that at the moment before he died, he couldn't believe that he would end up like this.
The corpse was none other than Dato Austin.
At that time, Knight wanted to use 'Thunder Storm' to kill Yi Chen, but Yi Chen was thrown towards the window lattice of the building due to the pull of the chain, and he luckily escaped. Every drink and every peck was fate, and Yi Chen survived. However, Dato Austin, who brought Yi Chen to the Sak tribe, was accidentally hit by the "Thunder Storm" and died on the spot.
Dato Austin is the left arm of Chief Takas, and Guzman is the right arm of Chief Takas. Both of them are important figures in the Sac tribe. Datuk Austin was suddenly killed, and he couldn't let go of the situation either emotionally or rationally.
Chief Takas was furious and retaliated on the spot with the usual violent method of the Sac people. He ordered all the Sac warriors to open fire on the 'Lightning' and must shoot it down.
Only then did the Sacks launch a second, more violent attack on the 'Lightning' without any restrictions.
Dato Austin glanced at the black-armored Asan warrior who just spoke, and found that he was gentle and gentle, and said:
"Please tell me what your positions are in the Yasan Empire."
The black-armored Yasan warrior said flatteringly:
"My name is Slam, the captain of the Lightning. I have rich experience in commanding warships. I am willing to surrender to your tribe and serve your tribe wholeheartedly from now on!"
Dato Austin's eyes lit up. He didn't expect to catch a big fish from the Yasan Empire. Then he pointed to several other black-armored Yasan warriors and asked:
"Where are they?"
Slam thought that Chief Takas agreed to his surrender and explained enthusiastically:
"They are all my subordinates and are willing to surrender to your tribe with me!"
Upon hearing this, Chief Takas nodded with satisfaction:
"very good!"
Then Chief Takas changed the topic and ordered the surrounding Sac warriors:
"Immediately arrest this Slamu and the other black-armored Yasan warriors, execute them on the spot, and let them be buried with Dato Austin!"
