Chapter 269: The Tragic Hero

After the celebration ended, Tang Xiao immediately arranged the spaceship again and went to Planet Kalee in person. This time, he took several transport ships to form a fleet and filled them with food and medicine.

He sent a message to Grievous, the first time Grievous hung up directly, and the second time, he still told Tang Xiao where he was now.

Tang Xiao led the fleet to Planet Kalee, and then arranged for people to secretly unload the delivered supplies, and then drove the shuttle to Grievous alone.

The shuttle flew over the Jenuva Sea, the largest sea area on the Planet Kalee, and then came to a remote island far away from the mainland, Abesmi Island.

When I came to the island, there were several wooden houses, some fields and a simple Fighter behind them.

Inside, there was a large group of Kaleesh children, some of them were working in the fields, some were playing in front of the houses, and some were practicing martial arts.

In addition, several Kaleesh women can also be seen busy with their own work.

After Tang Xiao walked over, one of the Kaleesh women came over, bowed to him, and said politely: "Are you Malthael? My husband told me about your coming yesterday. Please forgive us for not being able to show It's such a good thing to entertain you, there are some fresh Cannu fish at home, please wait a moment, I will cook a pot of fish soup for you."

"No need, I'll go find him directly. Everyone here is..." Tang Xiao looked around.

"That's right, this is Sheelal's home. His ten wives and thirty children are all here. He brought us all here, fearing that Huck would frame us." The Kaleesh woman pointed to the front "Sheelal has been praying to the water god over there for the past few days."

"Praying for what?" Tang Xiao asked.

"Pray that the water god will send the body of his true love, Kummar, out of the deep sea so that she can return to her hometown." The woman's tone was a bit complicated, she bowed to Tang Xiao again and then returned to the house.

Tang Xiao stepped towards the direction of the sea cliff, and sure enough, he saw a tall and straight figure sitting on the edge of the cliff. The sea breeze was blowing his tattered cloak, but he remained motionless, like an immortal monument.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Grievous did not turn back, but said in a very vicissitudes of life: "What are you doing back? There is nothing left on the Planet Kalee now. Not only that, but we also have 10 million credits on our backs, and Huck's shadow of death that may return at any time."

"The Kaleesh people shouldn't get such a result." Tang Xiao said.

"But it's already happened," Grievous said flatly.

"Then what are you going to do now?"

"Saving my planet."

"Do you need my help?"

Grievous took a deep breath, looked at the gloomy sea in the distance, and said irrelevantly: "When I was 22 years old, I once had a dream, dreaming that I held two knives and was killed in the jungle of Kumbal. A powerful Muuwu died. I thought it was a revelation from the gods, so I put on a witch-hunting mask and went to the Kumbal jungle alone. I didn't know how to use a knife at the time, so I took this Cherka sniper rifle."

"After I entered the jungle, I saw a woman. She held two knives and moved swiftly. Although the Muuwu beast was extremely strong, it couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes. In the end, she killed the Muuwu beast. That's when I realized that it wasn't me in my dream, but her, Kummar."

"The elder told us that our existence corresponds to the ancient Kaleesh prophecy, a prophecy about the 'Dreammaker' and the 'Dreamed'. The prophecy does not guide us on what we should do, but we are very clear... the Huck."

"So in the next ten years, we fought side by side and killed countless Huck. More and more people gathered around us, so we led these people to continue to resist Huck's invasion. I don't know how to use a knife, so she has been teaching me how to fight with two knives, she can't use a gun, so whenever I have free time, I take her hunting with this Cherka Rifle."

"I don't want to get anything, I just want to save the Kaleesh people. Since Huck enslaved us and slaughtered us, so I led everyone to rebel, that's all. Later, some people called us demigods. Although I don't think I deserve it but, I think they needed someone to lead them and give them direction, so I didn't say anything."

"However, as we killed more and more enemies, Huck also paid more and more attention to us. Finally, one time, Huck gathered more than 20,000 people to launch an assault, and Kummar and I were separated during the battle. After I finally brought After the team defeated Huck's attack, I couldn't find her anywhere. After searching for a long time, I finally found a mountain of Huck's corpses and the remains of Kaleesh warriors on a beach. I'm pretty sure she was surrounded by Huck here, and fought to the end..."

Speaking of this, Grievous's voice became icy, "But I couldn't find her body at all, because when they fought, it happened to be when the tide fell, and after the high tide, many of the bodies were taken away by the ocean current... ...I want to see her, even just to see her, I want to see her... I prayed countless times and came to this island because depending on the direction of the current, she might be washed over... But there is nothing... "

"When I raise my Rifle, no one covers my flanks. When I make a battle plan, no one snaps a map and says your plan is stupid like a Muuwu. When I launch an attack At that time, no one would tear open the enemy's line of defense for me." Grievous turned his head and stared at Tang Xiao with lifeless eyes, "I lost half of my life, and I can never get it back."

Tang Xiao didn't speak, he was just immersed in Grievous's extremely sad mood.

Grievous then turned back to the topic and said: "It was my last offensive that gave the Republic an excuse to impose an embargo and fine on Planet Kaleesh. Planet Kaleesh has been devastated by constant wars. We used to rob Huck's supplies to replenish, but now, those fields that are shrouded in gunpowder smoke will not grow crops for a long time. No one will sell food to us, because we have no money and have to bear a fine of 10 million credits. "

He stood up and untied the rifle from his back. "A lot of people will starve to death... I was told that if I could work for him, he would pay the fine for Planet Kaleesh. But the food problem, Still unresolved."

"I can help you with some of the food through black market channels, but transportation is still very difficult. Therefore, I plan to set up a security company and hire a group of Kaleesh veterans so that they can earn money to support themselves. As for the people, the Huck you call, I will teach them a lesson when the time is right," Tang Xiao said.

Grievous put the rifle in his hand into the ground beside him with a click, and said to Tang Xiao, "I will remember you, Malthael."
