Chapter 434: Ah shit, here we go again!
Chapter 434: Ah shit, here we go again!
As Zhao Tian and Ning Xue were conversing sitting on the chair, Zhao Ying walked to them wearing a skinny t-shirt and thigh shorts.
"Tian'er..."
Hm? Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow and smiled at Zhao Ying "Ying'er..."
Zhao Ying sat on his lap and showed the screen on her mobile "Tian'er... look at this. Everyone is searching for you."
"Since you left the big ark with that woman, you suddenly disappeared. The people are still in panic as it's been some hours since you went into the ark of that mysterious woman."
Zhao Tian gazed at the live footage of the helicopters still circling around the two big arks above Russia.
"And seems like these people of Ebon Luohe have not left yet..."
Zhao Tian tilted his head "Oh, that's because I came straight here after speaking with Artorio. I should go and explain the situation to the world leaders."
With a nod, Zhao Ying replied "Yeah, they should be worried about you."
Zhao Tian took his mobile from his storage ring and glanced at the number of calls from Joshua Brown and from all the other world leaders.
Sighing in his heart, he stood up picking Zhao Ying in his arms.
He gently placed Zhao Ying on the chair and lazily stretched his arms "Now that I think of it, if I go out now.. I will be appearing back in the atmosphere of Earth because I came in right from there."
At this time, Zhao Ying stopped him "Wear some good clothes before going to meet the world leaders..." she spoke looking at his loose t-shirt, shirt, and flip-flops.
Zhao Tian shrugged casually "It's okay..."
Zhao Ying smiled dryly as Zhao Tian could be the only one audacious enough to wear casual clothes like this for meetings with world leaders.
"Bye Bye Tian'er..."
...
*swish* Zhao Tian appeared back in the atmosphere close to space and looked down at the beautiful planet. content source mvlempy r
A soft sigh escaped his lips and as he was about to dash towards the ark in Russia.
*beep* *beep*
Huh? Zhao Tian's gaze squinted hearing a beeping sound and retrieved a blue beacon from his storage ring.
However, the blue beacon is now beeping in red right now indicating danger.
'Shit...'
He turned his head and glanced over his shoulder to look at the source of danger—dozens of arks dashing towards the Earth.
Each ark is reddish-black coded with a skull symbol framed on it and the skull symbol has a single black eyepatch.
'Space pirates...'
...
About fifty sophisticated arks were hurling toward the blue green planet wanting to explore and plunder this newfound star.
On one of the lead arks, Keathe Romez, the pirate commander, lounged lazily in his control room.
His black hair was neatly slicked back, his sharp green eyes locked onto the view outside the window. He watched the distant planet grow larger as his fleet closed in, a smirk curling on his lips.
"So, this is where Caspian lost contact…" he murmured, tapping the holographic display on his lap.
"And seems like there is a whole new solar system in the place where it should be empty space."
"Interesting. Is it one of those rare ascended stars?"
"And someone killed Caspian before he could pass on the information?"
As they inched closer to the star, Keathe Romez lazily leaned back on his seat and spoke "Well, boys… let's send our welcoming message. Prepare the lasers, and let's give this planet a taste of what's to come."
The people in the control room quickly turned on the lasers in the ark and the remaining arks also took an offensive action to attack the planet.
"Boss... someone is in front of us."
Keathe didn't even bother to look up. "Shoot them down," he muttered, waving a hand dismissively.
...
The frown on Zhao Tian's face deepened looking at the number of arks 'I should just leave from here. Now that Zarek Talon is here... he will take care of things.'
As he was about to enter his artifact, *swish* Someone flew past him in the dark space and grasped his wrist, taking him away from there.
"That is really dangerous, Zhao...."
Zhao Tian raised his gaze to look at the short haired woman, her green eyes glinting with playfulness, a smirk dancing on her lips.
"Lyra."
*woosh* She pulled him closer to the moon, taking him away from the line of sight of the arks.
Once they reached the relative safety of the moon's surface, she released his hand and turned to face him, her smirk still firmly in place.
"What were you doing out here in space, dressed like that, Zhao?" she teased, glancing at his Earthly attire. "Not exactly battle-ready, are we?"
Zhao Tian smiled dryly and replied "Thanks a bunch, Lyra..."
Lyra Talon waved her hand, her playful smile unwavering "Don't mind it, Zhao..."
As she mumbled she turned her head to look at the arks in the distance "Hmm... my father should have already sensed the arrival of these space pirates."
"It's only a matter of time before boom, baam—a big fight breaks out."
*swish* A medium sized ark for two people appeared from her storage ring and she hopped in first.
"Come on Zhao...."
With a nod, Zhao Tian entered after her and at the same time, numerous arks dashed from the planet Earth after sensing the Space Pirates' arrival.
Among the smaller arks, there is also a gigantic ark.
Looking at the smaller arks, Zhao Tian's eyes narrowed 'These arks are stationed inside the big ark?'
Kaethe Romez also watched the arks emerging from the star and was quite confused "I thought it was a newly ascended star..."
"But they have already advanced to create arks?"
However at this time, a man in the control room rushed to him with a holographic tab and yelled "Commander Keathe, by the structure and color code of the ark, it is most likely from Ebon Luohe."
H-Huh? Kaethe Romez was taken aback to hear this.
He leaned back in his chair, deep in thought. 'The Ebon Luohe is not a force to be trifled with. If they've already staked their claim on this star, it complicates things.'
"Pass the information to headquarters immediately," Keathe ordered. "Tell them we've found an ascended star under Ebon Luohe's protection."
"And.. get ready for attack."
The pirate fleet began to shift into an attack formation, their weapons powering up once more. The battle for the newly ascended star was about to begin?
