Chapter 364: Where’s My Fleet?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The commotion at the holiday celebration quickly subsided, and the live broadcast drones continued to record the general manager’s speech as usual.

In the corner of the screen, one could vaguely see a famous wanted criminal being taken away by the law enforcers. However, this person kept shouting at the drone, “I’m the general manager, I’m the real one! The one on the stage is fake!”

Naturally, no one paid attention to such clown-like words. Except for a small number of people who knew the truth, most of the others scoffed at it and sighed that even the intelligence of wanted criminals was not very good these days.

Some of the frightened people did not want to participate in the celebration anymore and hurriedly returned to their residences after the evacuation. However, the workers who needed the celebration to earn money had no choice but to stay where they were, occasionally cheering for the general manager’s speech.

In the evacuated crowd, a group of law enforcers captured the guards and speakers who had caused the riot earlier and escorted them to this area.

On the transportation vehicle used by the law enforcers, the guards and speakers from the Sentry sat together and smiled bitterly at each other.

They knew that they would not be able to escape this time. This operation was planned by the speaker himself. He did not inform the higher-ups of the organization at all. He only discussed and planned this operation with a few good colleagues and people he felt he could trust.

He knew that he was radical and that this method might have little effect, but he felt that it was necessary to try to wake others in some more direct way.

However, it seemed that all of this was in vain.

While they were waiting for the verdict in silence, the law enforcer who was guarding them suddenly asked,

“1 remember that you’re the youngest son of the Carter family. Why did you do such an illegal thing? You should know that this matter is very serious. You can’t afford to be careless. Your omnipotent father won’t wipe your butt like this.”

This question was very strange. The speaker knew the various laws and regulations of the company. The escort personnel were strictly prohibited from communicating with the person being escorted. Violators would be treated as being on the same level as the person being escorted.

However, the person who escorted them did not seem to care about this at all. Even the equipment that monitored every move here did not send any warning, which puzzled the speaker.

Affected by this, the speaker, who originally did not want to communicate with these corporate minions, could not help but answer, “So what? I never expected that guy. I’m just a descendant of one of his countless generations of bodies, but will he still be bound by this fake kinship?”

“He won’t care about anything I do. All I’m grateful for is this identity he gave me. Without this identity, 1 wouldn’t have been able to see the back of the world, and 1 wouldn’t have been able to help the organization. Now that I’ve been captured, I only hate that 1 can’t make any more contributions.”

The speaker’s words stunned the guard who was also being escorted. He did not expect this ordinary and hot-blooded young man in the organization to be a member of that famous family.

That family was a force that could not be underestimated in the company. A certain director came from this family. Such a person was completely unreachable to the guards.

Sensing the speaker’s gaze on him, the guard subconsciously lowered his head. Although he was also a member of the Sentry, the class habits he had developed in the company still made him subconsciously not dare to look directly at the speaker, believing that the other party was much nobler than him.

Seeing this scene, the speaker, who was a member of the Carter family, could not help but sigh, and his eyes dimmed.

Even though they could entrust their lives to each other a few minutes ago, at this moment, there seemed to be a thick barrier between them.

However, the next moment, the speaker suddenly remembered something. His true identity was actually only known by the few people at the top of the organization. For this operation, he even specially operated on himself to make himself look completely different from before.

He had not discussed this operation with the higher-ups. Even if there was a traitor in the organization, the news should not have reached here so quickly.

Therefore, the way he looked at the escorts gradually changed. He seemed to have a feeling that these people in front of him only looked like people, but they were actually something else.

“Respectable spirit. There are very few people in history who dare to overthrow their class because this often means that they lose their privileges and share the resources they have with the next level they look down on for free.”

“This not only requires courage, but also a noble spirit. We thought that it was impossible for such a person to be born in this Corporate Empire, but now it seems that no matter how hopeless the place is, there will be some people worthy of being remembered.”

The escort’s words of praise didn’t make the speaker happy. Instead, he said with some lack of confidence,

“…This might just be a moment of impulse. Passion is always like this. Maybe I’m just trying to satisfy my vanity, or maybe it’s just to make my heart feel less uncomfortable.”

“After ten or twenty years, 1 might not always be the same, and I might also be corrupted like others. After all… the privileges brought by class are like sweet hallucinogens. Just a little bit of it will make people extremely fascinated.”

However, the transportation vehicle stopped at this moment. The sealed window could not see the outside world. Although he was a little puzzled that the prison did not seem to be so close, the speaker obediently accepted his end.

—to become a wanted criminal nailed to the pillar of shame.

However, at this moment, the escort said something that confused him.

“It’s good that there’s a little. Many great careers are born from a moment of passion. No one knows what the future holds, but at least for now, you’re working hard for more people’s careers.”

“There’s still a long way to go, but you have to understand one thing. Technology is the most important reason. If soft tactics don’t work where there’s no cure, we’ll use hard tactics.”

As they spoke, the transportation they took opened. The outside world was not a prison, but the top of a high-rise building.

“This is…” At first, the speaker and the guard looked around curiously, but they were quickly shocked by the huge thing in the sky.

It was a huge aircraft that stretched as far as the eye could see. One could only vaguely see the huge ring body that appeared in the sky through the bridge.

In the center of the ring was a giant cylindrical device that was perpendicular to the planet’s surface. Although it was called a device, it was more appropriately described as a cannon muzzle.

It floated above the planet, and its existence could be clearly seen with the naked eye. The cylindrical cannon muzzle was facing the ground, and dazzling blue-white light was gathering.

It had been a long time since they had seen interstellar warfare. The speakers and guards, who had only experienced some small fights between business spies in reality, were all shocked by this huge spaceship.

It was hard for them to imagine what had mobilized such a spaceship and why it had come here. Just the mass and volume of the fall alone were enough to wipe out 99% of the people on this planet.

Of course, this spaceship would not use such a primitive method, and it was not here to destroy. When the blue-white beam of light visually rushed towards the planet, the speaker and the guard came back to their senses and hurriedly tried to find a place to hide.

When the huge nano torrent hit the ground, there seemed to be a muffled sound. Even the buildings trembled for a moment. Many people nearby sensed the vibration and came out curiously to check the situation. However, they were enveloped by the nano torrent and suddenly disappeared.

The drones that were still filming the venue only had time to see a flash of white light before losing the signal.

This scene confused many people who were working in the news, but soon, someone shouted something in a hurry, as if looking for a place to hide.

However, the all-pervasive nanorobotic storm would not let go of any place. In just a short period of time, it swept through half the planet, causing this area to completely lose contact with the company.

A certain director who was still enjoying himself finally learned about the planet attack from a subordinate who risked his life. The scope of the disaster far exceeded his expectations.

“There’s such a thing?! When did those Sentry rats have such powerful energy?”

He quickly called out the emergency contact and gathered all the directors who could use virtual images to discuss how to solve this problem. 𝙛𝙧𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝒃𝒏𝓸𝒗𝓮𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝓶

However, although it was indeed terrifying to lose contact with half a planet in a short period of time, these directors did not panic.

After ruling the galaxy for so many years, they were not afraid even if dozens of planets were lost, let alone half a planet. The foundation of the megacorp far exceeded others’ imagination.

They were just wondering when the Sentry Organization, which had clearly done everything under their control, would be able to attract such a huge force.

Until now, they still believed that it was the Sentry’s doing. They had never considered that it was someone else who had come here.

“No matter what, let’s suppress the rebellion first. Where’s the nearest fleet? Hurry up and chase the chief of the combat department to his place.”

One of the directors said as he picked up his communicator and prepared to make a call.

It was also at this time that the people in charge of some special work in the spaceport received a call.

At first, they were still confirming the other party’s identity, but they gradually fell silent. There seemed to be a dim purple light flashing in their eyes.

Not long after, the staff working in the spaceport’s defense system saw a colleague push open the door and enter. Before he could say hello, he suddenly blacked out.

This colleague operated the spaceport’s defense system and ordered all the battleships in the port to attack.

Similar things happened in every spaceport. The directors who had been unable to communicate for a long time sensed that something was wrong. The other directors who had taken action also exclaimed because their direct connection with the corporate fleet had been inexplicably cut off..
