Chapter 1410: Daikong Star Alliance Coup (2)
On the streets of Olivia's capital city, the residents are fleeing.
A Daikong man pulls his wife's hand, running toward the outskirts of the city.
Gunshots ring out from behind, getting closer and closer.
"Hurry!"
The man shouts.
The wife falls, and the man pulls her up.
"Don't look back, run."
A rebel soldier rushes out from an alley, blocking them.
"Stop! Where are you going?"
The man says.
"Out of the city, to find a safe place."
The rebel soldier looks at them, pointing backward with the gun in his hand.
"Go back, stay inside, do not go out."
The man says.
"But there is a war in the city..."
The rebel soldier raises his Laser Gun.
"Go back, this is an order."
The man pulls his wife, turns around, and runs back into the building.
The rebels have occupied the city's main intersections and set up roadblocks.
Anyone attempting to leave is told to "stay where you are, do not go out."
The residents are trapped in the city, listening to the gunfire and explosions outside, not knowing who is fighting whom, not knowing who will win.
Kewake's vehicle is driving on the street; the road ahead is blocked by rebels, and the driver slows down.
"Commissioner, we cannot get through."
Kewake looks out the window.
"Turn around, take another route."
The driver turns around; siren sounds come from behind, rebel vehicles catch up, and the Guard raises their weapons.
"Commissioner, they are catching up."
"Accelerate."
The vehicle accelerates, the rebel vehicles follow closely, gunshots ring out and hit the car body, and Kewake ducks his head.
Serafen stands before the window of the military command headquarters, watching the fire rising in the city, and the Adjutant walks in.
"General, the perimeter of the Spaceport has been controlled, the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance fleet is locked in their berths, but once our men get close to there, they are attacked; the Communications Center has been occupied. The Diplomatic Committee building is under attack. Kewake has escaped, and we are in pursuit."
Serafen nods.
"Continue, do not let them run."
The Adjutant says.
"General, the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance fleet has no movement; they are guarding their camp and have not sortied."
Serafen frowns.
"They aren't moving?"
The Adjutant says.
"Not moving; their camp defenses are very tight, and our men dare not act rashly."
Serafen remains in Silence for a moment.
"Ignore them, capture Kewake first and control the regime. The Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance fleet does not have an invitation from the Daikong Star Alliance and dare not act casually."
The Adjutant nods.
"Yes."
Serafen turns around, looking at the fire outside the window.
"Daikong Star Alliance, from today on, will no longer bow its head."
On the other side, Kewake's vehicle is speeding on the street, the pursuers behind following closely.
Bullets hit the car body, making dull sounds.
Kewake ducks his head, his hands gripping the edge of the seat.
"Commissioner, ahead is the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance camp."
The driver says.
Kewake looks up; ahead appear the defensive fortifications of the Cadian Shock Troops.
The vehicle rushes to the camp entrance, and the Cadian soldiers raise their Laser Guns.
"Stop! This is a Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance military restricted zone."
The driver slams on the brakes, and Kewake pushes open the car door and raises his hands.
"I am Daikong Star Alliance Diplomatic Commissioner Kewake; I want to see your Commander."
The soldier looks at Kewake, then looks at the rebel vehicles chasing from behind.
"Let them in."
The soldier waves his hand.
Kewake's vehicle drives into the camp, and the rebel vehicles stop in the distance, not daring to get close.
Seeing the Cadian soldiers' gun turrets turn toward them, the rebels turn around and leave.
Kewake stepped out of the vehicle, his clothes somewhat disheveled, with a scrape on his forehead; a Guard followed behind him.
A Cadian officer walked over.
"Follow me. Lord Kailuosi Jin is inside."
Inside the ship's cabin, Yingxin sat on a sofa, holding a Data Pad in her hand.
Kailuosi Jin crouched beside her, pointing at a pattern on the screen.
"What is this?"
Yingxin asked.
"A Mars-class Battlecruiser."
"And this one?"
"This is..."
At this moment, the door was knocked on lightly; Kailuosi Jin stood up and walked over to open the door.
The Cadian officer stood at the doorway and saluted.
"My Lord, Commissioner Kewake of the Daikong Star Alliance requests an audience."
Kailuosi Jin's brows furrowed slightly.
"Why has he come here?"
The officer said.
"Rebels are pursuing him. He requests to see you."
Kailuosi Jin turned his head to glance at Yingxin.
"Lady Yingxin, I am going to handle a matter."
Yingxin nodded.
"Very well."
Kailuosi Jin walked out of the cabin and closed the door.
He followed the officer toward the ship's Meeting Room.
Kewake stood at the entrance of the Meeting Room, his Guard standing behind him.
Kailuosi Jin walked over and looked at him.
"Commissioner Kewake, there is a war going on outside. Why have you come here?"
"Lord Kailuosi Jin, Serafen has launched a coup. He has seized the perimeter of the Spaceport, occupied the Communications Center, and is attacking the Diplomatic Committee building; he wants to capture me."
Kailuosi Jin opened the door to the Meeting Room.
"Come inside to talk."
The two walked in, and Kailuosi Jin closed the door.
"Sit."
Kewake sat down.
"Lord Kailuosi Jin, the Daikong Star Alliance needs the help of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance."
Kailuosi Jin looked at him.
"It is not convenient for the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance to intervene in the internal affairs of the Daikong Star Alliance."
Kewake said.
"Serafen has gone mad; he wants to overthrow the legitimate government and establish a military dictatorship. He will destroy the Daikong Star Alliance."
"That is your affair."
Kewake stood up.
"Lord Kailuosi Jin, Serafen's target is not just me; he also wants to expel the fleet of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance. He says the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance are invaders and that having ship cannons aimed at the Capital Star is a threat. Once he controls the government, he will move against you."
"Do you think we would be defeated by them?"
"No, but he has gone mad, and he is capable of anything."
Kailuosi Jin leaned back against the chair.
"You mean to ask me to help you suppress the rebellion?"
"Yes, if the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance helps the Daikong Star Alliance suppress the rebellion and restore the legitimate government, I am willing to pay any price."
