Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 374

This battlefield scene was broadcast via satellite, perfectly capturing the two young people kissing amid the firelight.

Mi Rong sprang up as if startled.

“Nuan Nuan!”

Her face was pale, full of lingering fear and fury… So this was Sheng Nuan, who told her she was too scared and wanted to hide back in her room, yet ended up on the front lines of the battlefield.

This was what she meant by “scared”?

Mo Qingran was helping treat a wounded comrade when she heard a furious roar from somewhere, “Huo Ling, you piece of sh1t…”

Then she saw Sheng Siyang, who had been exuding a heroic aura just moments ago, swinging his arms, stumbling with uneven steps, and cursing as he ran forward.

Mo Qingran could not help but laugh… this war hero was so down-to-earth!

Su Shui’er, pale-faced, clutched a pillow and huddled with her family. Then, in disbelief, she saw Sheng Nuan… and next the camera shifted to Sheng Siyang beside the white mecha.

She saw Sheng Siyang step forward, and the mecha’s open cockpit stepped forward along with him…

Su Shui’er was shocked.

So the hero who made her parents applaud, who had ignited her bl00d with excitement and saved so many people, turned out to be Sheng Siyang?

At the spaceport, Qin Ji’s face was dark and grim.

The rebels were already this strong… And those gray fighter planes and new-style battle armor, were they theirs?

What was Sheng Nuan’s relationship with the rebels… and did the Sheng family have something to do with those mechas and fighter planes?

Then he saw in the broadcast that nearly a hundred new-model fighter planes landed in front of Sheng Nuan, quickly retracting their armor and giving her crooked salutes.

That scene looked a bit comical, but amid the flames of the battlefield, that seemingly ragtag group carried a distinctly lethal aura.

Only Sheng Nuan knew how this group had just been pretending to be dead, kneeling, and yet still forced to fight to the bitter end…

A deep unease welled up in Qin Ji’s heart, and he ordered an immediate return to the Blue Palace.

He wanted the Imperial Star and the Alliance to know that the Qin family had not left, had not abandoned the Imperial Star and fled… otherwise, this war might not have hurt the Imperial Star’s vitality, but it would destroy the Qin family’s foundation.

Qin Ji led his men back toward the Blue Palace at top speed in a hover car… but upon arrival, he found the area outside the Blue Palace completely surrounded by a countless crowd of civilians.

Because of the news that Alliance Monarch Qin Zhengde had fled the Imperial Star with his inner circle at the very start of the war, taking away a large portion of the elite forces, countless citizens had come to the Blue Palace to seek the truth. And from the start of the war until the rebels defeated the Zerg, the Blue Palace had remained deathly silent.

Qin Ji’s face turned a little ugly, and he dialed the Police Department Director Duan Long’s communicator.

“Hello, Minister Duan, it’s me… I want you to immediately have the Police Department drive away the civilians lingering outside the Blue Palace.”

Duan Long was silent for a moment, then asked, “Your Highness, may I ask on what grounds should I drive these civilians away?”

Qin Ji frowned slightly, then spoke coldly, “If you need someone to teach you how to do every little thing, then perhaps the position of Police Department Director should be given to someone else.”

But the next instant, Qin Ji heard Duan Long say, “Sure, be my guest.”

Qin Ji was immediately speechless, then clenched his teeth, “Duan Long, what do you mean? What exactly are you trying to do?”

Duan Long was silent for a moment, then said, “I’m not trying to do anything. I just think that anyone who abandoned the Imperial Star at the critical moment of war has no need to return after the war is over.”

Qin Ji instantly froze, his expression extremely ugly. Through clenched teeth, he hissed icily, “Duan Long! What is your intention?”

Just then, the satellite channel in the hover car flickered, switching to another scene…

Still a battlefield, but clearly not the Imperial Star.

Everyone was crying and screaming. Zerg fighter planes flew overhead. Amid the fleeing crowd, Zerg pursued from behind. A young man shoved away the girl in his arms, and almost simultaneously, his head was sent flying…

The surrounding shellfire instantly turned that spot into a wasteland. The girl protected by the man lay charred on the ground.

Accompanying this tragic scene was a voice as cold as death.

“Qingling Star? No, I want you to support Chihuo Star first… That gold mine cannot be lost. This is an order!”

Qin Ji’s expression froze instantly.

At the same time, everyone who saw this video recognized it as Qingling Star, destroyed by Zerg seven years ago… That once-scenic planet had turned into ruins overnight, with tens of millions of people reduced to fewer than two hundred thousand survivors.

The official response at the time was: The White Silver Army had rushed to the rescue, but arrived too late…

But now, outside of the scene, everyone recognized the voice as Alliance Monarch Qin Zhengde’s—the same voice that delivered a public New Year’s address on Alliance channels every year… And the Chihuo Star he mentioned was the planet housing Qin family’s private gold mine.

That planet had nothing but a gold mine and no permanent residents… Yet when both the gold mine and tens of millions of citizens were under Zerg attack, Qin Zhengde had ordered the army to retrieve the Qin family gold mine first.

The soldiers around Qin Ji instinctively looked at him. Qin Ji’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. “This is fake, synthesized. This communication is a fake!”

But then, on the audio, came the sound of knocking, followed by two people speaking.

“Father, should we not save the people first?” It was the puzzled voice of a youthful Qin Ji.

Then came Qin Zhengde’s cold, indifferent tone, “Child… there are many, many people in the Alliance, but our family has only that one gold mine. Without ample wealth to support you, it will be very hard for you to hold onto this position…”

As he spoke, faint electronic chimes could be heard… everyone recognized it as the central clock tower in Imperial Star’s main square.

It chimed nine times. Qingling Star was destroyed at 9:13 pm…

The video then cut to a desolate and ruined planet where many people crawled out from underground, crying, laughing, screaming, and hugging each other.

In front of their televisions, everyone was shocked. By that distinctive 99-story building, they recognized that this was Pisces Star!

Wasn’t it said that Pisces Star had been destroyed with no survivors?

That was what the Alliance military had announced… before abandoning Pisces Star. My God, then who were these people?

On camera, the survivors were emaciated, shaking their heads at the lens as if crying and laughing at the same time. “We waited so many years, so many years, but never waited for the Alliance to rescue us…”

“Our people kept dying every day, they were eaten alive by Zerg. We hereby declare that from this day forth, Pisces Star joins the rebels… Alliance, go to hell! Qin Zhengde, go to hell!”

This video was broadcast via satellite to the entire Alliance… followed immediately by footage from a few hours earlier in the Blue Palace conference room.

Qin Zhengde and the Defense Minister and others, under the banner of ‘preserving Alliance stability’, abandoned the Imperial Star and took away a large portion of elite forces.

The entire Alliance, especially the citizens of the Imperial Star, instantly fell into an uproar…
