Chapter 1400: My two sons are not yet adults, weak, helpless, and pitiful

Before the words had even faded, the windshield shattered.

A hand reached in through the gap in the broken glass, moving too fast to be caught.

Before Kelawi could even see the appearance of the person who had come, a tiny wound had already appeared on his throat.

Blood seeped out from the wound.

He clutched his throat, wanting to speak, but his trachea had already been severed.

The car door was pulled open.

A woman stood outside the car, wearing a dark gray tight-fitting combat suit.

When attacking Kelawi, she hadn't even used a weapon.

By the time Kelawi collapsed, she was already dealing with the Aliens in the back row.

In the space of a few breaths, the three Aliens were finished off.

Alpharius opened his eyes.

The tape on his mouth had already been torn off, and the restraints had also been cut by another assassin.

He flexed his wrists and looked outside the car.

Two Kalidusi assassins were also standing by the car behind them.

Omegon had already exited the car and walked over.

"Finished acting?"

"Roughly?"

Omegon asked.

"What did Father say?"

"Said to make us act like it."

Alpharius said.

"How was the acting?"

"Not bad."

Alpharius looked at the corpse of the Alien on the ground.

"He seemed to have figured it out right before he died."

Omegon nodded.

"Too late."

Kelawi lay in a pool of blood, his consciousness fading rapidly.

He had heard the conversation between Alpharius and Omegon.

Those youths were not panicked, not afraid, and didn't even have a hint of nervousness.

Kelawi suddenly understood.

From climbing the wall to the evacuation, every step had been too smooth.

Those youths had known they would come all along; they were just cooperating to perform the play of being "kidnapped."

And they, these so-called Aliens, had been acting under the other party's noses from beginning to end; it was truly laughable.

Kelawi wanted to say something, but blood foam blocked his throat.

He would never understand until his death why the Emperor had gone to such great lengths.

A squad of soldiers could have wiped them out easily; why let them succeed in the kidnapping, and why intercept and kill them here?

Alpharius and Omegon were escorted by several Kalidusi assassins into a black hovercar.

The assassins dragged the corpses into the shadows of the berth, and the three hijacked vehicles were moved to a predetermined location to be destroyed.

The berth returned to calm, as if nothing had ever happened.

An assassin walked up to Alpharius.

"My lord, do you and Lord Omegon need some props prepared? For example, scrape marks, torn clothes, messy hair? That way it would look more like you were frightened and be more convincing."

Alpharius thought for a moment.

"No need, just maintain Silence, and others will naturally fill in the blanks."

The assassin nodded.

"Understood, the Emperor is waiting for you at the banquet hall."

Alpharius looked at Omegon.

Omegon smiled.

"Let's go, back to receive the condolences."

The hovercar rose into the air and headed toward the direction of the banquet hall.

Xiuluosheng Banquet Hall.

After Alpharius and Omegon got out of the car, two patrol soldiers from the banquet hall walked over, while those Kalidusi assassins had already left, hiding in the darkness.

"My two lords, please follow us to the banquet hall."

A soldier stood at attention and saluted.

Alpharius nodded.

"Let's go."

The two soldiers walked in front, with Alpharius and Omegon following behind.

Omegon said in a low voice.

"Speak less after we go in."

"I know."

The doors of the banquet hall opened before them.

The lights were brilliant, and the voices of the crowd were noisy.

Everyone's gaze turned toward the entrance.

Alpharius and Omegon walked in, their expressions calm.

But the creases in their clothes and their slightly disheveled hair still caught the attention of some.

Yingzhou looked at his two sons, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Come here."

Alpharius and Omegon walked before Yingzhou.

"Father."

Yingzhou turned his head to look at the two soldiers who had escorted them.

"Where did you find them?"

The soldiers stood at attention.

"His Majesty, the two young masters were discovered on the perimeter of the Spaceport. They had been abducted by Aliens and were in the process of being transported to the Spaceport. When our squad arrived, the abductors had already been killed; the two young masters were uninjured, but they were frightened."

Low murmurs of discussion arose in the banquet hall.

Zeke'er's pupils contracted slightly.

Yingzhou's tone was very calm.

"Abducted? Who abducted them?"

The soldier said.

"Identities have been confirmed. Sargon Free Territory, Zelar Commercial Alliance, Viridian United Kingdom."

Yingzhou turned his head to look at Alpharius and Omegon.

"Are you injured?"

Alpharius shook his head.

"No. We were just tied up for a while, there are some marks on our wrists."

Yingzhou looked at his two sons, his volume increasing.

"Damn Aliens, my two sons have not yet come of age, they are weak, helpless, and pitiful. On the land of the Xiuluo Holy Star, at the third-anniversary celebration of the founding of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance, they were abducted by Aliens. They were frightened, they must be very scared. They are so young, they have never experienced such a thing."

Alpharius lowered his head, his shoulders trembling slightly.

Omegon also lowered his head, one hand gripping Alpharius's sleeve.

Father's acting is so exaggerated.

Holding back laughter is harder than acting.

The banquet hall fell silent. The expressions of some Alien representatives became subtle.

Yingzhou patted Alpharius on the shoulder.

"Go down and rest, have someone take you to the medical room for a check-up. Go back and get a good sleep, don't think too much."

Alpharius and Omegon nodded.

"Yes, Father."

The two turned and followed the soldiers out of the banquet hall.

Yingzhou faced everyone in the banquet hall.

His gaze swept over every Alien representative.

"My two sons, they were abducted on the Xiuluo Holy Star. On my territory, right under my nose."

No one in the banquet hall spoke.

Yingzhou continued.

"The third anniversary of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance; I invited you here to celebrate, to show goodwill. You came, and I welcomed you. I arranged your accommodations, prepared your feasts, and provided your security. I am responsible for your safety, but who is responsible for the safety of my sons?

"Sargon Free Territory. Zelar Commercial Alliance. Viridian United Kingdom. Three factions, kidnapping my sons; did they think they could take the hostages back? Did they think they could use my sons to trade for benefits?

"The twelve assassin corpses have already been disposed of, but this matter is not over.

I will not let those factions go. Abducting my sons requires paying a price.

Sargon Free Territory, Zelar Commercial Alliance, Viridian United Kingdom. These three factions, from today on, are enemies of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance."
