350: Killing you was his boss's order.
Crack—
As the ruby in No. 66666's hand shattered, his entire figure instantly appeared inside the interstellar battleship.
Standing before him was Fuji.
The moment the latter saw No. 66666, he was startled.
After observing him carefully, a look of deep confusion appeared on Fuji's face.
"You... are that No. 66666? How did you end up looking like this?"
When Liu Yan was teaching the Soldiers, Fuji had been present.
No. 66666's performance had been exceptionally outstanding, which left a deep impression on Fuji.
After being recognized by Fuji, No. 66666's expression shifted slightly.
For him, Fuji was only a passing acquaintance.
Yet, the other party was still able to recognize him even after he had changed into this state...
"Never mind that for now."
"Do you still have the ten thousand gold tear crown? Help me get out quickly; I can't move right now."
"We have to be fast. Jacob can also control the devices inside this battleship."
"If you get caught like me, it's all over!"
Fuji struggled in his chair and shouted, his tone extremely anxious.
Although he didn't know what was happening outside, he knew he had to get out and pilot the storm red immediately.
Even if he couldn't attack those corpses, he could at least help alleviate some of the pressure.
Bang, bang, bang—!!
Just as Fuji finished speaking, several gunshots rang out behind No. 66666.
No. 66666 instantly turned his body to the side, and two bullets grazed his shoulder.
At the same time, No. 66666 raised his right hand, placing the F57 against his left rib.
Without looking back or aiming, No. 66666 fired a bullet behind him.
Thud—!
Puchi—
Puchi—
This single bullet accurately struck the main pilot between the eyebrows.
Meanwhile, the opponent's third bullet successfully hit No. 66666's shoulder as well.
Seeing this, Fuji on the seat opened his mouth wide in astonishment.
Everything that just happened, in Fuji's eyes, took only an instant.
At the same time the main pilot fired, No. 66666 had already sidestepped, and while sidestepping, he had perfectly cleared the position for his right hand to raise the gun.
Although he knew No. 66666 was strong, Fuji had never imagined that he would be strong to such an extent.
Watching No. 66666, who had escaped danger, Fuji had just breathed a sigh of relief when his heart jumped back into his throat.
After taking out the main pilot, No. 66666 pointed the muzzle of the F57 at him.
At the same time, several laser emitters extended from the walls of the battleship's cockpit.
"Behind you and above you!"
Fuji immediately shouted to warn No. 66666.
At the same time, Fuji looked back in confusion.
Logically, the main pilot was already dead by now, and the other pilots had long since fallen into a deep sleep.
There shouldn't be anyone behind him.
Why was No. 66666 aiming his gun in his direction?
Surely he couldn't be trying to kill him, right?
Sss—!!!
In an instant, several lasers shot toward No. 66666 from various strange and tricky angles.
The latter leaped up instantly, performing a horizontal flip in mid-air, skillfully dodging all the lasers.
At the same time, No. 66666, in mid-air, pulled the trigger of the F57 in his hand, aiming at Fuji.
Thud—
In that instant, Fuji felt like he was dreaming.
A person who looked like a hundred-year-old man, whose palms were even shriveled beyond recognition, was actually able to perform such high-difficulty maneuvers, dodging laser fire of that density.
And a person like this was his brother's Soldier.
His brother had only just graduated a few years ago.
Furthermore, his brother was also his father's brother, whom he should call Uncle.
And it didn't end there; now this Soldier's muzzle seemed to really be preparing to shoot him...
It was too absurd.
Fuji's brain was in a mess, all sorts of chaotic thoughts washing over him.
Snap—!!
Just as the bullet was about to touch Fuji's face, a pale blue protective shield lit up around him.
The bullet fired at him was blocked by the shield.
Only at this moment did Fuji fully react, subconsciously closing his eyes.
After feeling that he wasn't dead, Fuji opened his eyes in disbelief.
He saw that No. 66666 was looking at the pale blue protective shield with a stunned expression.
Sss—
A second wave of lasers struck. No. 66666 performed a side roll and pulled the trigger at Fuji again.
Thud, thud, thud—!!
The bullets were still blocked by the protective shield.
Seeing this, No. 66666 decisively changed weapons.
But no matter what gun he switched to, he could not break through this protective shield.
At the same time, Jacob's cold voice came through.
"Don't waste your effort."
"I don't care what Liu Yan told you."
"But Fuji is my partner."
"You can't kill him."
As soon as Jacob said this, shock appeared on the faces of both No. 66666 and Fuji.
No. 66666 looked at Fuji in disbelief.
At the same time, Fuji also looked at No. 66666 in disbelief.
Fuji swallowed hard and asked uncertainly:
"Is it Liu Yan... who sent you to kill me?"
No. 66666 did not answer, but instead quickly pulled out a smoothbore gun.
He could clearly feel his life slipping away; there was no time to waste.
Before he died, he had to kill as many people as possible whom Liu Yan deemed important.
Just as No. 66666 was fiddling with the smoothbore gun, a cold AI voice rang out at this moment.
"Replying to Mr. Cai Fuji, his goal is to kill you."
"But Hafke will provide you with the safest protection in the world."
"Now, cough, cough—shoot Cai Fuji!!"
As No. 66666's voice fell, the smoothbore gun instantly erupted with a red light, and then the gun body vanished.
Bang—!!
Immediately afterward, a red light lit up above Fuji's head.
Bang—!!
Then came the collision between the red light and the pale blue protective shield.
No. 66666 saw that the pale blue protective shield, which had originally surrounded Cai Fuji with no dead angles, transferred all the energy from the other parts to the top the moment it contacted the bullet from the smoothbore gun.
The protective shield at the very top also changed from pale blue to Deep Blue.
As the red light faded, the protective shield immediately returned to its original all-encompassing protection.
Initially, Fuji did not believe what the AI had just said.
After all, No. 66666 was Liu Yan's Soldier.
But No. 66666's actions just now had already provided the answer.
"Why... do you want to kill me?"
Fuji's voice trembled slightly.
In fact, that was not the question he wanted to ask.
Soon, the AI's voice rang out again.
"Replying to Mr. Cai Fuji."
"Killing you was the order given by his boss."
At the same time, Jacob's voice rang out again:
"Fuji, here, you can always trust its words."
"Brainwaves do not lie."
"For instance, what you just wanted to ask was why Liu Yan told him to kill you."
"Right?"
Hearing this, Fuji's mind was in total chaos.
No matter how much he refused to believe it, the facts were now laid out before him.
Seeming to fear that Fuji still didn't believe it, Jacob's voice became slightly sympathetic.
"I didn't want to show you this."
"But I think, out of respect, there are some things you need to know."
"Even if it will make you feel pain..."
As his voice fell, a holographic screen appeared out of thin air in front of Fuji.
And what was playing on it was exactly what had just happened: the scene of No. 66666 killing Cai Ning.
