The amount of implication contained in this sentence was too large, everyone heard it but didn't understand it, they couldn't help but look at each other, puzzled. Only Joshua's face changed dramatically. He stood up and turned to leave, but the silent until now Osborne suddenly shattered the gravity rings on his wrists and ankles, then pounced on him with lightning speed, grabbing his fragile neck.
The soldiers pulled out their particle guns but didn't dare shoot, worried about injuring the Prince Consort.
Zhou Yun Sheng slowly shattered his gravity rings, walked up to Joshua, and lifted his chin to give him a careful once over. The sharp spirit of the Zerg Queen frantically attacked him like a needle, but he blocked all the attacks.
"Kill him." Zhou Yun Sheng lightly said.
Then, in full view of witnesses, Osborne shoved a fist through Joshua's chest, puncturing his heart. His bright eyes dimmed, and his limbs fell limp.
"No!" On the sidelines, Kyle issued a distressed roar. All the star citizens were intimidated by the demented behavior of the two men.
But it was not over yet, Cecil walked closer and split open Joshua's skull. They were simply not human, they were demons! They should be thrown into a black hole and twisted into pieces!
The netizens lashed out in anger, stood up and pounded their tables, then suddenly slumped back, their legs going soft. A translucent, spherical object that resembled a human brain drilled out of Joshua's cracked skull, flying into the face of an Alpha soldier.
It stretched out a sharp mouth, cut a hole in the soldier's forehead, and twisted its soft, boneless body into it, quickly occupying the soldier's skull.
The soldier, whose forehead had a bloody hole, began shooting at Osborne and Cecil without regard to the death of the prosecutors and judges behind them. Zhou Yun Sheng escaped the dense spray of bullets and quickly spun around to appear behind the soldier, neatly breaking his neck. Once again, he pried open the skull, forcing out the ball-like object, but this time he caged it with spiritual power.
Osborne immediately laid out his spiritual power around the cage, no matter how high the spiritual strength of the Zerg Queen, it couldn't break through the two 3S-level's imprisonments.
It lashed its spiritual force at the air, its mouth issuing a whining sound, its appearance was exactly like a human brain, but its skin was transparent, and it contained numerous yellow eggs. There was no doubt that it was a Zerg.
"Did you take a close look? The human army is commanded by such a monster, if it wants us to fail, we will fail, if it wants us to win, we will win. It controls four-fifths of the Empire's troops, the lives of all the soldiers are in the palm of its hands. You, however, waste precious time prosecuting two innocent people, so we won't ever plead guilty!" Zhou Yun Sheng sneered and opened.
Without waiting for him to finish, Kyle, who was standing in the gallery, suddenly leapt through the air, his body rapidly expanding, tearing open his magnificent attire, he fell in front of the two and turned into a ferocious looking Zerg. It sprayed venom, its tail sweeping at the two people, trying to save the Queen. The army commanders sitting around him also suddenly became high level Zerg and quickly attacked the two.
However, after years of training, the two's strength had already reached heights unimaginable by ordinary people, they just usually didn't show it, which had led to Joshua seriously underestimating them, thinking that the gravity rings would be enough to trap them.
Zhou Yun Sheng punched a hole through a Zerg's head, turned, then kicked an encroaching Zerg dozens of meters away, smashing it into residue on the wall. Next to him, Osborne had also brutally maimed a few Zerg, using the rags hanging on their bodies to wipe the palm of his hands clean.
Zhou Yun Sheng walked up to the pile of Zerg corpses and sneered, "The King, the Supreme Marshal of the Empire, the Third Army Marshal, the Fourth Army Marshal, the Fifth Army Marshal, the captain of the Royal Guards, and the mecha Generals, these are the best talents in the Empire, but they have long been turned into Zerg. Is this the Lennon Empire or the Zerg Empire?"
Everyone was still blanking out from the previous scene, they looked at him with dull eyes.
"I declare that, from now on, the Lennon Empire will enter a wartime state, and all those who have come into contact with Joshua Lennon have to undergo a comprehensive physical examination to confirm their human identity."
"If the Free Federation or the Ballou Republic try to probe into our empire at this time, then according to the intergalactic convention signed in 6789, we have the right to utilize our ultimate weapons on both countries." Zhou Yun Sheng slowly opened to the camera, then pointed to a soldier and ordered, "Find a transparent energy shield, then inform the Empire's Supreme Laboratory to prepare to receive the Zerg Queen as an experimental body."
The soldiers immediately returned to reality, saluted, and ran out. The remaining soldiers looked at the two men in awe.
Death was not the most terrible outcome, it was more terrible to live as the dead. The Zerg Queen apparently knew what awaited it in the laboratory, so it let out sharp hisses, violently striking out with its spiritual force, giving everyone on the scene a severe headache.
Zhou Yun Sheng and Osborne immediately released their spirits to suppress it, under such vast cosmic coercion, the Zerg Queen quieted down, shivering.
Things were moving too quickly, leaving everyone unable to respond, it wasn't until the two men led the soldiers to rectify the site did the audience on the Star Network take an awakening breath.
How did those Zerg get mixed up with human beings? They had control of the Lennon Empire, in order to exterminate humanity, they just needed to provoke the three forces into war. If Marshal Osborne and Cecil hadn't discovered their plot in time, humanity would've perished.
Terrible! As long as they thought of the human-disguised Zerg, they involuntarily shuddered. Those who hated Osborne and Cecil felt ashamed, saying that they would publish a letter of apology on the Star Network, and that they would now unconditionally support the two.
They knew that the Empire was now caught in a catastrophe, and only the two could quell the disaster.
The prestige of the royal family fell to the bottom, they were the first to accept the physical examinations, then the military people followed. Zhou Yun Sheng and Osborne took control of the military with the fastest speed, while killing a few Zerg who tried to take revenge for the Queen.
Zhou Yun Sheng had to lament the Queen's ambition. It could produce eggs in human bodies, allowing the larvae to slowly hatch and replace the host. It selected all the important players, controlling the Empire by controlling them, if they had continued down that course, humanity and the Zerg would be under its rule in just a few years.
Zhou Yun Sheng stood in front of the detector, watching the military people undergo inspection one by one. Zerg could cover their appearance in human skin and bones, but as long as they stood under an X-ray, their hidden body would be exposed. The soldiers who had passed the examination pointed guns at the men, mercilessly shooting down anyone discovered.
Of course, there were Zerg who tried to flee, but as long as a military personnel went unaccounted-for for more than four hours, they would be wanted by the whole galaxy. The Ballou Republic and the Free Federation were actively cooperating with the Lennon Empire, they were also afraid of the Zerg that could become human beings entering their territories.
Fortunately, the Queen was not interested in ordinary soldiers, which averted a greater disaster. Currently, the Generals of several armies had been killed, and the remainders naturally obeyed the orders of Marshal Osborne and Cecil.
The two men accepted an inspection under the detector to prove their identity as humans for the whole galaxy. When asked how they found the true identity of the Queen, they simply replied, "As long as your spiritual power is higher than the Queen's, you can sense it."
Everyone knew that the spiritual power of the Zerg Queen was ridiculously high, so high that human beings could never go beyond it, but now, that was already old history. The anxious citizens of the Empire calmed down, they highly respected the two Marshals. Then they vigorously attacked the royal family on the Star Network, because 50% of the royal family had turned out to be Zerg.
This was not their fault, but the image of the royal family had been irreversibly destroyed, their intention to pick a new king was rejected by the people, who proposed abolishing the monarchy and changing the regime to a democratic republic, a presidential system.
There was no doubt that the people wanted the first president to be elected between Osborne and Cecil.
"You don't want to be president?" Osborne hugged his lover from behind, feeling up his strong abdominal muscles with his palms.
"Don't want, too much work." Zhou Yun Sheng slowly tasted his wine, then asked, "Do you want to do it?"
"I want to be a Star Pirate, like we agreed earlier." Osborne pinched his lover's jaw, stressing his words.
"Well, we'll go be Star Pirates." Zhou Yun Sheng drank his glass of red wine and gave Osborne a peck on the lips.
Old Matthew and Old Bernard were furious to discover that the two brats had ran away from home, not even leaving a note. They had to announce the news to the outside world, and the public suddenly howled in misery, thinking that the previous trial had hurt the two people's hearts, making them run away, extremely disappointed in the Empire.
They'd paid everything for the Empire, but Empire had paid them back with the death penalty, no sane person could stand this kind of humiliation. Some people felt distressed for them, some people accused them of being irresponsible, but no matter what the outside world said, they didn't care.
Finally, the royal family managed to keep their noble status, but lost their authority. The Lennon Empire was changed from an absolute monarchy into a constitutional monarchy, and the rights were handed over to the people.
At the same time, a group of Star Pirates called 'DOOM' turned up, in just a few years, they became a powerful group equivalent to the Lennon Empire, the Ballou Republic, and the Freedom Federation.
[DOOM- 毀滅 – Huimie – to perish / to ruin / to destroy]
