Lian Du paced restlessly on the military aircraft, unable to sit still.
The longer time dragged on, the more agitated he became.
"Is Song Xiao'an on that vehicle?"
His subordinate lowered his head and whispered, "Yes, Young Master. You threw a massive tantrum when you found out. A private jet is already on its way."
Lian Du stopped in his tracks, asking with surprise, "Song Xiao'an left the base?"
"...Yes."
Ever since Song Xiaoping's incident, he hadn't stepped outside the base, fearing something might go wrong.
Yet, for this brat Ming Letong, he was breaking his usual rule and leaving the base?
Whether Song Xiao'an liked men or women had nothing to do with him. It was just that Ming Letong's parents had switched to the Guangming Base within a year.
If Song Xiao'an hadn't protected him, he would have died long ago.
Indeed, whether it was love between men and women, or between men, it could make a normally calm mind impulsive.
"Young Master! Our base has been bombed!"
Lian Du's expression changed drastically, and he quickly opened the control panel on his tablet.
The screen was entirely black, indicating everything had been destroyed.
A violent aura erupted from the man.
With a loud "crack,"
The tablet was smashed into pieces.
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to utter a word.
Lian Du was the second-in-command of the experimental base and also bore the responsibility of guarding it.
Now that the B City base was bombed, all blame fell on him.
A sinister smile touched Lian Du's lips, and chilling energy surged around him.
"Give me the impact cannon."
His subordinate trembled but dared not retrieve it.
"Young Master Lian, there are many of our people below."
"Give it to me."
His eyes were blood red, and he clearly didn't care about human lives.
The subordinate's legs felt weak from fear. If he didn't comply, Young Master Lian might just kill him on the spot.
He walked to the inner cabin and instructed two men to carry out a cannon as tall as a person.
The impact cannon, with one shot, could leave no survivors within 10 meters. If it were truly used, their own people would likely perish along with the enemy.
The two men set up the impact cannon and silently retreated to the side.
The subordinate couldn't help but interject, "Young Master Lian, I heard from Young Master Song that all the important data from the base has been evacuated. Our losses aren't significant."
Lian Du lowered his gaze, hiding the murderous intent in his eyes.
Suddenly, he drew the pistol from his waist.
With a "bang," a gunshot rang out.
Blood splattered onto the man's handsome face, yet his expression remained unmoved.
The subordinate slowly fell to the ground, a large amount of blood gushing from the back of his head.
His eyes widened, seemingly surprised that his words had cost him his life.
Lian Du didn't even blink. He re-holstered his pistol.
"Come here!"
"Yes, yes, yes."
Without hesitation, everyone on both sides supported the impact cannon.
Such a large cannon was rarely used, and when it was, it required at least three people, especially on an aircraft.
"Fly steady."
"Yes."
A cruel smile curled on Lian Du's lips. He narrowed his dark eyes, staring intently at the black RV speeding below.
"Die."
He pulled the trigger, and the immense recoil shook the entire aircraft.
A massive ball of fire shot towards the RV like a rocket.
[Ding ding ding, Danger Alert! Please enter your space immediately to take cover! Please enter your space immediately to take cover!]
Suddenly, an orange-red light enveloped everyone.
Xu Qian had no time to question. She covered the entire vehicle with her mental power and willed it into her space.
The entire vehicle was retracted into her space.
With a deafening "boom,"
Sparks flew and thick smoke billowed from the ground.
Countless lives were lost at this spot.
The man's entire face was illuminated a scarlet red by the flames.
Suddenly, he let out a cold, sneering laugh.
"Proceed to the L Province experimental base."
"Yes."
