Chapter 358 - 8.83 First Blue Star - I Shouldn't Have Awakened The Devil.
Once the earthquake had stopped, Major General Feng Yang, Lieutenant General Nova Seren, Lieutenant General Regulus Zenith, and Queen Regulus (Feng) Yue were rendered speechless in fear and shock. They stared at the stern cold faced man seated unmoved at the center. They were slightly trembling under his gaze especially after witnessing such inhuman capabilities. The cracks on the land under the feet are enough proof that the youngest marshal before them had the strength to destroy a star by himself.
Marshal Sirius said his tone is devoid of emotions and feelings unlike before, "Is this enough proof for you? Actually, I and Jing'er in the same place are already against the norms. This is also the reason why I am sending most of the soldiers and students away from the battlefield. Because with me and Jing'er here, there is no way this star would remain after the war. Sending them with you with a much safer target is better than here. Seat properly."
The three who fell from standing or off their seat followed the order and sat back properly on the chair. The meeting resumes as if nothing happens.
"Lieutenant Nova Revel will be here soon. I asked Lieutenant General Nova Seren to inform him about the plan once he got here. There are two parts to this mission. The first is to infiltrate the Zerg Planet with a smaller and elite group. The mission of this group is to secure the retreat route of the Alula Clan who works undercover in the enemy's camp for years. Save everyone in Alula Clan, they are all heroes who helped the Empire divert the danger all these years. The fleet led by the Old Marshal will cover you. Lieutenant General Nova Seren, can I leave this mission to you and your unit?" asked Marshal Sirius.
Nova Seren replied, "This mission I shall accept wholeheartedly."
"Good. As for the latter part, you should also know what to do next..." said the Marshal.
Feng Yang and King Regulus Zenith clenched their fists with excited smiles on their faces.
"I know! I agree with this mission! I've always wanted to destroy the planet where those stupid insects live!" exclaimed Feng Yang.
King Regulus Zenith silently accepted his mission as well. He nods his head quietly as he is nonchalantly receiving the task of obliteration that will be the end of the Zerg race. But his Queen beside him knew that her husband wanted to use this event to show his rage for losing their Imperial Mother. She could only comfortably hold her husband's hand showing her support to anything her lover had decided to do.
Seeing his wife giving her silent support to his decision, the fiery anger in his heart had subsided a bit. He clasps at that slender hand giving warmth to his heart and soul.
King Regulus Zenith's thoughts, 'That's right. I am not alone. I still have my wife and our future children.'
Marshal Sirius said, "For the latter half, Lieutenant General Nova Revel, Lieutenant General Regulus Zenith and Major General Feng Yang. Your mission is to massacre everything in the Planet Zerg and destroy the star afterward. Do you accept this mission?"
"We accept the mission, Marshal!"
"With this, the meeting is adjourned!" said the Marshal.
As soon as the meeting had ended, a soldier came running to report something to the marshal with a pale and terrified face.
"MARSHAL!!!" yelled the soldier who had forgotten all the decorum as a dignified soldier.
Feng Yang scolded the soldier for his rudeness. "What are you shouting for!? Do not disrespect your superiors!"
The soldier upon seeing the mad Major General, the soldier with lower status immediately saluted and stood straight as a rod. But his eyes were still looking at the marshal and everyone could see the extreme fear within the soldier's eyes.
The Marshal also noticed the fear within their eyes and asked, "What happened?"
[Lord God, it's the host he... he started a stage of execution for the Navi Clan in front of the eyes of everyone from the Oberion Empire no... the whole interstellar world.]
Marshal Sirius, "..."
"P-Please head to... The open area. Y-Young... Lord Feng Jing is... Had started killing...the captives from the Navi Clan," answered the soldier.
When they heard about this except for the Marshal the rest of his superiors were in disbelief.
Major General Feng Yang grabbed the soldier and said, "You! Tell us what happened. What really happened?"
The soldier who was suddenly grabbed almost chokes when Feng Yang grabs his collar.
Cough*"J-Just now... Major General Drake asked... Some people dragged the prisoners out and tied them up then placed all of them in an open area where Young Lord Jing was waiting. At first, we thought the marshal had ordered it as even Major General Navi was dragged out as well.
Then we noticed that Young Lord Feng Jing had somehow for unknown reason had some control of the Star Network and created a live stream showing this camp. We tried to stop him at the beginning when suddenly he brought out a signed document of power transfer from the Grand Marshal to him. We couldn't believe it and were shocked at first and then he started playing video recordings of each prisoner's hidden crimes that no one would have expected.
Those people from the Navi Clan are seriously disgusting! They kidnapped children with no special background experimented on them, used them for human trafficking, and more unbelievable things. Afterward... the young lord started announcing the Empire's rules. Most of the crimes shown were punishable by death and everyone in Star Network agrees to it. There was chaos all over the Star Network and in the open area.
T-This is because... the 18-year-old Young Lord Feng Jing started executing each of the captives on the spot. No one was able to stop him. He was covered in blood all over but his eyes remained cold yet entertained. He kills them while smiling..."
The soldier had told them every detail of the story from the beginning to the current. Feng Yang and Feng Yue were speechless after hearing this. That was their adorable younger brother.
Feng Yue mumbled, "Impossible. impossible! Jingjing is after all only 18!"
"Wife, calm down. Xiao Jing is a soldier, moreover, he is an awakened being. Isn't this normal? Plus he must be extremely angry with how things resulted. Lin Yven is his teammate and friend." said King Regulus Zenith as he tries to calm his wife.
The marshal looked at the nervous queen and said, "I suggest you both take a rest. I will go there myself."
King Zenith nodded his head and said, "Then we'll leave it to you."
Feng Yang grip his hands into a fist allowing the pain to wake him and said, "I... I want to go with you."
"Let's go!" said Marshal Sirius while hearing System Yue's explanation in his head.
[The host had started this a few hours ago before the meeting had ended. The letter of authorization was something the Old marshal had sent to him as we were told to. He must have taken over the Star Network since the beginning but... even I didn't notice that he has full control over it.
But the host is smart, he used the public... common people's opinion and had them side with him. The recordings of each crime he is showing are real as well. He levels called the victims family and the sounds of crying for justice can be heard.]
Marshal Sirius replied in his head, "But his vessel this time is only 18 years old, no one thought this is weird?"
[There is no problem. There's a precedent case with regards to this. The ancestor of the Phoenix Clan was said to be righteous and caring to his family but extremely ruthless and merciless towards his enemies. At the age of 19, he killed everyone who tried to harm his friend who became his partner in the end. It was a kidnapping case and this Feng Ancestor killed every kidnapper who tried to harm the students. This is what was dug up from the historical records and the people of the Oberion Empire and the Interstellar Federation accepted his action as something that is due to his special bloodline as Feng.]
"Take control of the network progression. Do not let anyone blacken my wife's reputation. Those guys hiding in the Empire but take this a chance to do so."
[As you ordered, Lord God!]
---
Planet Citlali, Outer Region's open area.
The students and soldiers surround the men kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs. They were all wearing pale and ghastly faces as they looked at the young yet beautiful young man at the center of the blood pool. Under his feet are numerous headless men. Just based on the cuts on their heads, it was either got cleanly cut off by something sharp or plucked off using an unbelievable strength.
The sight of human heads still connected to the spine bones, flesh, and limbs cut off like how a doll could do, beating hearts being dug out and a more gory scene was witnessed by everyone. There is even one head grip within his hand and not far from him is a small mountain of heads. The scariest of all, the culprit of all this bloody scene is none other than the young man who is famous for being trash before who in the end became the strongest genius in the history of the Empire, Feng Jing.
Feng Jing talks to himself while holding some bloody parts and head here and there. Dug her. Pull out there. Chop here. "This is a murderer who killed a small peaceful family for fun. This one rape underage girls and boys. Tsk! This one sold his illegitimate children for money... God~ you guys are worse than trash ha~"
The pure white fire slowly burns the corpses under him but almost half of his body is covered in crimson blood. Both his hands were soaked with the sticky, rust-scented thing making the whole scene frightening. Like a hell on earth and at the center of that nightmarish scene is a young man like Feng Jing.
The open area was as silent as it could get. The audience and even the sinners were as quiet as a mute. They would all unconsciously cover the area above their hearts as if afraid that their heartbeats might be heard by the little devil at the center of all this mess.
Because the scene is too scary some soldiers had prevented students from witnessing such a scene but some had already seen it and ran off somewhere to puke. This is the first time they had to see such a stomach-churning scene. Those who were just watching were already scared to death but how about those sinners who haven't received their punishment yet. Of course! they wanted to die as soon as they could lest that devil would torture them badly like how he did to their comrades.
'What the hell is this!?'
'Is he a devil? He just plucked a human's head like a flower in a garden!'
'He was even smiling when he did so!'
'Fuck! Am I dreaming? Is this a nightmare?! Someone, please wake me up!'
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! DEVIL!!! MONSTER!!!"
A collective scream from the captives was heard, they tried to stand up and escape from here. Running away from the devil who rips life nonchalantly with a smile.
'AHH! They are trying to escape!'
'Stop them!'
But unfortunately, as soon as they tried to take their lives, Feng Jing would control Ice to freeze their bodies, and instantly they wouldn't be able to move at all. The soldiers had nothing to do at all. Everything in this area is under the full control of the devil-like young man at the center of all this chaos.
"Where are you going ba~?"
Feng Jing with a playful smile at the corner of his lips looks at those men who were captured by ice only their eyes and nose were free from being frozen. They were all looking at the exquisite visage of the young man covered in blood not far from them. The pretty smile was like a nail hammering in their hearts and the coquettish echoing in the area was like a death call.
At this moment, the father and son, Navi Itri and Navi Naja couldn't help but stare at the beautiful young man walking towards them. Navi Naja was already covered in his own puke, tears, and pee. He tried to stand up and run away but his legs couldn't stop shaking at the bloody scene playing before him. If he was like a crazy person obsessing towards the marshal before? Right now, he had gone mad in fear towards Feng Jing. He started screaming sorry and started pleading for his life. He regrets every action he had taken against Feng Jing.
Navi Naja, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that... Please forgive me... I will never do it again... Wuwuwu~"
Major General Navi Itri feels the same way. At this moment, witnessing this kind of Feng Jing makes him remember that marshal who fought in war covered with the blood of his enemies. They were both cruel to their enemies and unforgiving.
"I shouldn't have awakened the devil~" murmured Major General Navi Itri while staring lifelessly at the approaching Feng Jing.
"Don't worry~ This lord hasn't done enough yet~" said Feng Jing with an evil smile on his face.
