Interstellar: Conquering Crazy Commanders with Food

Chapter 187 Desperate Speech

He had already guessed that she would not be able to follow him today, so he left the gun here on purpose.

He knew it a long time ago, but he didn't tell her the truth.

Claire picked up the pistol on the table, stared at it for a while, and silently hid it on her body.

Since this was the amulet that Cassius insisted on leaving her, she would hold it and wait for him to come back.

Not long after seeing her come out of the study, Martina stood nervously at the entrance, for fear that she would do something agitated.

"I won't go out, don't worry." Claire signaled her to relax, and walked into the kitchen calmly.

A row of gleaming table knives were inserted on the storage rack. She walked to the kitchen counter, pulled out a table knife from above, held it in her hand for a while, then turned and walked out holding the knife.

Going up to the bedroom on the third floor, Claire hasn't been here for a long time. She went straight into the bathroom, opened the drawer and took out an eyebrow razor blade.

Now that no one can protect her and Martina, she must be fully prepared to spend the day without Cassius.

After properly hiding all self-defense weapons on her body, Claire went down to clean the kitchen with Martina.

At this time, it was only an hour before Cassius left.

Unable to sit still, she got some water and went to the glass greenhouse to water the dying apple tree.

Outside the giant glass greenhouse that looks like a birdcage, a few passing figures can be vaguely seen, and a few ugly bugs stop outside, sticking their fist-sized compound eyes to the glass to observe the interior.

Claire inevitably stared at them, and the strange feeling came suddenly at this moment.

She suddenly froze the watering hand, and goosebumps popped out of the skin on her arm.

The kettle in her hand hit the ground with a bang, and she stared at the pair of compound eyes that were only five meters away from her, separated by a glass wall, with an indescribable sense of panic and loathing coming from the bottom of her heart.

What happened to that bug? ?She clearly sensed an inquiry that was watching her.

Claire stepped back vigilantly, hiding behind the trunk of the apple tree, and the gaze that made her feel uncomfortable slowly disappeared.

After standing behind the tree until there were no bugs outside, she returned to the living room to sit down and calm down.

Soon, because the worry about Cassius gained the upper hand, this episode was forgotten by her, and she was uncontrollably worried about his current situation.

Around one o'clock in the afternoon, the car carrying Cassius stopped at the large square in the center of Mainstream Star City.

Originally, this place was used to publicly execute the most vicious criminals, and the wooden shelf that once hung Doris is still placed here.

All the surviving orcs on the main star and a large number of human slaves working here gathered in the center of the square. Tens of thousands of eyes watched the tall men in ordinary plain clothes get off the bus with their military uniforms removed.

Under the scorching sun, the scars on his body that have not faded away are particularly hideous and conspicuous on the white and firm skin.

"You just need to follow the procedure, Cassius, and you can go back alive." Cyril walked to his side and whispered: "You still have to go back to see Claire, don't be impulsive in everything."

Cassius walked onto the stage with a calm expression, he raised his chin slightly, and the direct sunlight made him narrow his eyes slightly.

A halo of light reflected in his irises, and he stared quietly at the blue sky above his head.

No one knew what he was thinking at this moment, and the men who had retreated their private uniforms clenched their fists unconsciously.

"commander!"

"We will listen to what you say! We will always believe in you!"

"Commander, Commander!" the orcs below shouted.

Cassius withdrew his extremely far-sighted eyes, lowered his jaw slightly, put his hands behind his back, stood upright, and said in a cold and thin voice:

"On behalf of the Orc Empire and Atli Galaxy, I have accepted the "Colonization Clause" agreement proposed by the Zerg, surrendered unconditionally to the Zerg, and immediately handed over all planetary resources, military and non-military properties as requested by the emperor. Now I accept the control of the Zerg. All the residents and soldiers of the empire became captives and enslaved, and from today onwards, I officially resigned as the former commander of the empire, willing to accept the personal supervision of the Zerg."

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

After so many years, how proud and unyielding Cassius is, just look at his wonderful life and zero failure record.

The greatest commander of the empire is now standing on the podium and swearing that he is about to become a prisoner of the Zerg. This is a big blow to the loyal and patriotic beast people who want to stand up and resist. Look at that picture Zhang Xi's ugly face understood.

A middle-aged man was caught in the crowd and shouted in pain, "My son died in the battle! He said you would lead us back to glory! He said you would definitely repel the Zerg! Just give up now! He But lost a life in vain!?"

Before the words fell completely, a blood hole appeared in the middle of the man's forehead, and a slap the size of a palm pierced through the hole, splashing blood on the face of the orc behind him, causing quite a commotion in the surrounding area.

"Blatantly inciting war sentiments and violating the "Colonial Clause" for treason shall be punished with death." A guard Zerg put down his weapon blankly, and it was the one that fired the powerful shot just now.

The corpse was dragged in a long trail of blood on the ground, winding to disappear behind a house.

Cassius tightened his hands behind his back slightly, his eyes were filled with gloom, "Don't fight meaninglessly, follow me and choose to obey."

One person died, and the rioting crowd finally calmed down, and the matter was not over yet.

A row of ten people wearing anklets was pressed onto the platform.

Seeing them, a trace of surprise flashed in Cyril's eyes. He didn't know there was such a link, and he looked at Cassius with worry in his eyes.

Including Fei Ji, these people are all important technicians or combatants who followed Cassius to participate in the war.

"These ten people killed a total of one hundred and one Zerg soldiers and were sentenced to death under the terms of the colonization."

The Zerg who had just shot an orc came to Cassius with his toes off the ground and flapped his wings, and handed him a gun, "To express the highest respect to the Queen of the Zerg, you will personally shoot these orcs."

Feiji nodded at Cassius with a face of resignation. Of course, he knew the meaning of the Zerg bringing the commander and executing them. Not the slightest bit of rebellion.

Cassius held the gun, and the temperature of the ground rose even higher, as if his skin was covered with a layer of burning. Sweat dripped down his black temples, and a little bit of sweat floated on his forehead.

Everyone looked at him in despair, waiting for his decision.

He slowly raised his gun and pointed it at Feiji's forehead, his dark eyes narrowed slightly.

It's getting late, she must be terrified of waiting now, as long as he executes his loyal subordinates who have been with him for many years, he can go back safely and let her let go of her worries.
