Chapter 812 Massacre ([-])

Dirudhib Kingdom, one of the members of the Xie Lechong Alliance, is located in the extreme east of the South Universe, in the remote area of ​​the Milky Way galaxy. The country's economic situation has not been very good, but its military strength is strong. In addition, there are several rare mineral deposits of good quality for export. The standard of living of the people in this country is not bad, at least much better than that of the neighboring sub-human tribes in the north.

Due to its strong military strength, the Dirudib Kingdom has put a lot of effort into border defense. The entire country is very safe. Except for a very small number of interstellar robbers who drive dilapidated small spaceships, there are no pirates at all. In this country Spaceships that sail within the interior do not need the protection of any warships, which can save a lot of costs.

Yepshenko was sitting in the command room of this old cargo spaceship, happily drinking high-quality black tea bought from the sub-human tribe.

Epshenko is 80 years old this year, even if he has a fifth-level martial arts practice, he is not too young.For half his life, he worked in spaceships on various air routes between Dirudib and the Asian tribes. Gradually, as his experience became more and more abundant, on his [-]th birthday, he finally saved enough money. With the money and a low-interest loan sponsored by the state, he successfully bought this second-hand medium-sized transport ship and completed the transformation from an employee to a boss.

Over the years, he has gained a good reputation by relying on the connections he made in the Asian tribes with various merchant fleets in the early years, and he has always been fair and never deceived the honest and simple Asians. His business is very prosperous. The loan has already been paid off, and a large sum of money has been saved.Epshenko has already made up his mind that he will sell the boat after working for a few more years, buy a new boat for his son, and go to the sub-human tribe to support himself.

Thinking of the demi-human girl she met in the demi-human tribe who had a pair of pointed ears and blushed when she saw him, Yepshenko couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement, and wanted to immediately turn around and return to the demi-human tribe.

However, even if you want to go back, you have to sell the special products of the Asian people on the ship, and then load the goods.

Epshenko will not do things that lose money.

"Captain, we will be at the border checkpoint soon."

shouted the boatman in charge of communications.

Yepshenko suddenly came to his senses: "Oh? We'll be here so soon. Well, if you guessed right, the stationmaster of the checkpoint during this time is Major Milojevich. Don't worry, he and I are old friends. My friend. Rhea, bring me the box in the second drawer of my cabinet, it's a gift I carefully prepared for Major Milojevich."

The speed of the old cargo spaceship gradually slowed down, and the hull trembled slightly, showing that its lifespan was coming to an end.

Seeing that he was about to enter the passage of the checkpoint, Yepshenko was a little puzzled. Usually, at this time, the communicator had already been ringing non-stop.But today, it seems that they are about to reach the entrance of the passage, but there is no communication yet.

"Reya, are you sure our communicator is working properly?"

A thin young man turned around and shouted: "Father Ye Pu, I just checked with an optical brain, and everything is normal."

"Strange thing..." Epshenko shook his head, got up and came to the optical brain screen, looking at the checkpoint in front of him.

The weapons installed on the checkpoint were quietly placed there, facing the depths of the universe, not aimed at the spaceship under inspection as before.The lights were on throughout the checkpoint, as usual, but Yepshenko always felt that something was wrong.

The channel is open.

"Is there still no response?" Epshenko asked.

"Father Ye Pu, no one responded. Tell me, are those people drunk?" Reya said with a smile: "I think, why don't we just go there and forget about it, and we can save a sum of money?" What about the customs fee?"

Epshenko hesitated for a while. He has always been more prudent in his work and would rather spend money than be caught.

"Wait a minute."

The wait is three hours. There are very few ships on this route, and usually no ship will pass by for five or six days, so they don't have to worry about the blockage of the channel.

Rhea yawned: "Father Ye Pu, do you think something will happen at the checkpoint?"

Yepshenko shook his body and frowned: "I don't know, I always feel a little uncomfortable. Forget it, we are going to set sail, let's go to Yemousse to rest and ask about it. Anyway, I think , it is not suitable to stay here for a long time."

"Okay!" Rhea giggled, and immediately tapped on the optical brain, the engine at the tail of the spaceship ejected blue flames and started slowly.

Five hours later, they arrived at Yemousse Star, which is the closest to the checkpoint.

Since this planet is the closest to the sub-human tribe, its foreign trade is very developed, and there is a lot of land suitable for farming on the planet. It is an important food production base for the Dirudhib Kingdom. There are nearly [-] million people on the planet. It can be regarded as the planet with the highest economic level in the kingdom.

In the space port, there are many spaceships moored, most of which are cargo spaceships, others are passenger ships, and a small part are private spaceships and military warships.

The old spaceship slowly sailed into the space port, but what worries Yepshenko is that until now, he has sent countless communications requesting to enter the port, but none of them has received a reply.The entire port was dead silent, and despite the bright lights, not a single ship was moving.Yepshenko had no choice but to control the spacecraft and directly enter the free berth in the port.Such an approach is tantamount to sneaking in. If they are discovered, they will be fined a large sum of money, and the whole ship will be imprisoned in severe cases.

"Old... Father..."

Rhea stammered in panic, and Yepshenko's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Did you receive feedback from the communication?"

"No, it's not... Dad, you... look quickly..."

Yepshenko was keenly aware of the fear in Rhea's voice. He came to the main screen of the optical brain and raised his eyes to look at the screen.

Upon seeing this, he was completely stunned.

There are people in the port, and there are many.

But... these people are all dead!At least thousands of people fell on the port, without the slightest movement... "This... this is..."

Yepshenko felt his teeth trembling violently, making a rattling sound.

Suddenly, he thought of a possibility, and immediately shouted: "Reya, turn on the life detector!"

Because sometimes, Yepshenko would also transport some local specialty pets and other things from the sub-human tribe, and would use life detectors, so he installed such things on the ship, but he did not expect that he would use them. It came to detect the star port.

The detection results were surprising. There was not even a single bit of life response in the entire port.

Yepshenko panicked.

Trembling, he walked to the cabinet on the side of the command room, took out a bottle of strong Volga, bit off the cap, poured it into his mouth, and downed at least half of the bottle in one go.

Two blushes floated on his old face, which calmed his mood down a bit.

Such a thing happened in the spaceport, what about the ground?
Life detectors can't sense such a long distance, but there is still a detection system, even if it is just an old cargo ship, this type of equipment will also be installed.Yepshenko tapped on the keyboard with both hands. Because of his agitated mood, he hit the wrong key several times.Finally, he finished adjusting the detection system and looked towards Yemousse Star's largest city.

One picture after another appeared on the screen.

After just one glance, Yepshenko's eyes were round and bulging, and his mouth could no longer be closed.

Dead people... Dead people are everywhere... These people seemed to have been killed suddenly, without the slightest resistance, but their faces were full of horror.On the head of every dead person, there is a small scorched black hole. If you guessed correctly, it should have been precisely hit on the head by a beam gun... The capital of the Dirudib Kingdom, the Ministry of Military Affairs.

"How is it? Is there still no news about the border checkpoint and Yemousse?" The admiral didn't have any dignity on his face at this time, only anxiety.

Several communication officers kept using various methods to try to establish communication with the target, but they were still unable to succeed.

An officer suddenly walked in and saluted the general: "General, the prime minister has sent another message, hoping that we can send a spaceship to Yemousse immediately."

A hint of displeasure appeared on the general's face, and he snorted coldly: "The military unit closest to Yemousse is the border checkpoint. Apart from them, the nearest one will take more than ten hours to reach Yemousse." ...Forget it, let the fifth base send a squadron there, and use the fastest speed for me. Remember, the communication is guaranteed to be smooth along the way, and the report will be made every 3 minutes."

"Yes! General." The officer saluted and walked out.

The general walked back and forth for a few steps, and suddenly sighed: "What happened to Yemousse Star and the border checkpoint? It has been almost ten hours. Even if the backup communication equipment fails, can the civilian equipment Can't it be used? Damn it... Could it be that the demi-human tribe took the opportunity to launch an invasion?"

Another general next to him shook his head and said: "It should be impossible. The Asian tribe belongs to the Xie Leichong Alliance with us at this time. If they dare to attack, the Alliance will not let them go!"

"So what if you don't let it go? New America and the Asian tribe have been fighting for so many years, and the hatred is as deep as the sea. The Asian tribe is still alive and well." The general shook his head and said: "Compared to the Asian tribe, I am more Would like to believe that an electromagnetic storm suddenly broke out over there, blocking all communications."

The general was puzzled: "But...the meteorological department didn't find the possibility of an electromagnetic storm over there?"

"That's why I'm also very strange..."

The two were chatting, when suddenly an officer hurried in, saluted and quickly said: "General, there is a message from a cargo spaceship that has just returned to China from the sub-human tribe, saying that it has very important information."

"Important information?" The general snorted, and was about to reprimand him, when he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said, "You mean they just returned from the sub-human tribe?"

"Yes, General."

The general walked quickly to his side: "So, they must have passed the border checkpoint and Yemousse Star?"

"Yes, General. We also considered this issue before reporting it to you."

The general was overjoyed and immediately said: "Quick, take over his communication immediately, and I will talk to him in person."

The communication network was quickly connected, and the general rearranged his military uniform and sat down in front of the communication optical computer.

An old man with a flustered expression appeared on the screen. Judging from the background, he should be in the command module of a cargo spaceship.

"I am the Minister of National Defense, you can call me General Romon."

The general's voice is very stable, giving people a very firm feeling.Hearing this voice, the old man calmed down a little.

He tremblingly said: "Luo... Hello, General Romon, the young one is the captain of this ship, named Yepushenko, who usually goes to the Asian tribe to do some small business, abides by laws and regulations, and never evades taxes. tax evasion..."

"Stop!" Admiral Romon interrupted him, at this moment he was extremely anxious to know what happened there.

"Mr. Epshenko, please tell me your location immediately!"

Yepshenko was naturally in a daze because of what he had seen and heard just now, and it was the first time he faced such a high-ranking official. If he was asked to explain, he might not be able to say one, two, three for a long time.But if you answer the question, it can still be done.

Epshenko immediately replied: "General, my current location is on Yemousse."

"Yemousse?" The admiral raised his voice, "Tell me, what happened to Yemousse?"

From the old man's expression, he already had an extremely ominous premonition.

"Dead people... all dead people..."

General Luo Meng was startled, and hurriedly said: "Speak clearly!"

Yepshenko swallowed hard, and said: "General, when we passed the checkpoint, there was no response, and then we arrived at the Yemousse star, and there was no response, and then... Then I found out, The entire spaceport, and the ground...not a single living person."

"What did you say?" Romon stood up abruptly and shouted loudly.

Yepshenko said in a panic, "General, I didn't lie to you. They are all dead people. The whole planet is full of dead people... No, you can take a look at these photos..."

When those photos appeared on the optical brain of the Military Affairs Department, seeing these people, including General Romon, everyone froze there.
