154: Chapter 154 Sneak Attack from Behind, a Disregard for Martial Morality

Emily came from a poor family. Through diligent study and redoubled efforts, she finally managed to be admitted into Prince Luancheng's Mansion recently. She had thought she would be set for life, never having to worry about food or clothing again, but she never expected to be sent out on an assignment as soon as she entered the mansion.

Moreover, Prince Luancheng's tyrannical temper was simply terrifying!

Prince Luancheng narrowed his eyes, looking at Emily with a gaze full of perverted desire.

“Just entered the mansion?”

Emily replied tremblingly, “Ye... yes.”

“Very good, come with me!” Prince Luancheng licked his blood-red tongue and walked toward the adjacent room.

“Wh... why am I going to the room with you?” Emily was paralyzed with fear.

She wasn't stupid. After entering the mansion, she had vaguely learned some things. Prince Luancheng's Mansion was not at all like its glamorous exterior; the internal filth was simply appalling!

But once you entered the doors of Prince Luancheng's Mansion, it wasn't so easy to leave!

“N... no! I don't want to go!” Emily tried to struggle.

Belon gave a sinister smile, stepped forward to hoist Emily up, and then followed Prince Luancheng into the room.

Once Prince Luancheng was finished, he might even get some leftovers!

That door, which countless ordinary people spent their lives striving and fighting to enter, might not be so beautiful once inside.

Unarmed, without power or influence, one could only scrape by and flatter others within those gates. The sorrow of the common person has remained the same in every era.

Born with the bones of a beauty, only to be sold to the imperial house.

A fair face often meets a tragic fate; the crime lies in being born into a humble family!

...

The kongming mothership continued its jumps toward the Lava Planet, while Su Fan and the other two discussed their strategy against the enemy in the captain's quarters.

“Master, we have arrived at an area two light-years away from the Lava Planet,” the Red Queen prompted.

Su Fan nodded; this was the result of their consultation.

After their previous encounter, Su Fan felt they had been a bit too reckless.

Stopping the ship two light-years away this time was for the purpose of using the enhanced sensors to probe the situation near the Lava Planet first. If there were no other ships, they would then jump over.

“Red Queen, scan the vicinity of the Lava Planet and see if there are any other ships,” Su Fan ordered.

“Yes! Master!”

“Scanning...”

“A spaceship has been discovered at the edge of the Three-Body Star System!”

Su Fan was startled; he hadn't expected there to actually be enemies there!

“What class is the enemy ship?”

“By detecting the engine's energy fluctuations, it is inferred to be a class-c spaceship from a Level 4 civilization,” the Red Queen explained.

“Have they discovered us?” Xia Feifei interjected.

“The opponent has not discovered us yet,” the Red Queen replied.

A smile appeared on Su Fan's face. The influence points spent on upgrading the ship weren't wasted; a detection range twice that of a standard class-c spaceship was truly impressive.

“Great Elder, should we launch a sneak attack and take them out directly?” The corners of Su Fan's mouth curled up slightly.

“Absolutely! We must seize such a good opportunity.” The Great Elder smiled. “However, we should adjust our angle to strive for a one-hit kill!”

“I suggest the kongming spaceship adjust its angle slightly, circle around to the exact rear of the enemy ship, and then attack from behind,” Xia Feifei said, having a sudden inspiration.

“Red Queen, at such a distance, can you determine the front and back of the enemy ship?” Su Fan asked.

At a distance of two light-years, the sensors couldn't detect the physical shape of the enemy ship, only energy fluctuations.

“It can be determined. The target has been moving slowly in one direction, and the energy fluctuations at the rear are higher,” the Red Queen explained.

“Excellent! Adjust the angle immediately. I want to blast its rear right now!” Su Fan chuckled.

“Su Fan, there is a lady present, please use civilized language!” Xia Feifei rolled her eyes.

Next, the Red Queen controlled the ship to adjust its angle, made a short jump, and arrived directly behind the enemy ship.

“Master! The angle has been adjusted. Shall I attack?”

“Charge the C900 Planet-Destroying Cannon!” Su Fan ordered.

“Charging!” the Red Queen replied.

In the thickest barrel of the kongming, a terrifying energy began to brew!

“Don't forget to activate the Energy-Boosting Accumulator Ring,” Su Fan reminded.

“Already activated!”

“Charging complete. Shall I fire?”

Su Fan's lips curled up as he waved his hand.

“Fire!”

...

At this moment, in a huge room on Prince Luancheng's ship, Emily was suffering through inhumane torture!

Various appalling implements were being used on Emily's petite body; it was monstrous!

At first, Emily was still screaming, but as time passed, she had been tortured to the point where she could only let out low whimpers.

Compared to Emily's miserable state, Prince Luancheng's face wore a crazed smile.

“Jie jie jie jie jie!”

“Jie jie jie jie jie!”

The entire room was filled with an aura of despair!

Just as Prince Luancheng felt he was about to reach a climax, the ship suddenly shook violently.

Before he could even react—

BOOM—

The ship exploded!

Exploding along with the ship were Prince Luancheng and the tens of thousands of staff members on board.

Why did Prince Luancheng die?

Because Prince Luancheng had a preference: he didn't like using Androids!

Therefore, the Prince Luancheng on the ship was the real person!

Just like that, Prince Luancheng was dead!

A fitting end!

...

Su Fan was unaware of what had happened inside Prince Luancheng's ship. The moment the enemy ship was hit by the C900 Planet-Destroying Cannon, Su Fan held his breath.

Under normal circumstances, as long as a class-c spaceship activated its energy defense shield, a ship of the same level couldn't achieve a one-hit kill.

However, energy defense shields were extremely energy-consuming, and this energy had to be provided by dark energy crystals.

dark energy crystals were very precious; no one would be so extravagant as to keep the energy shield on at all times.

“Master, the enemy ship has been destroyed!”

It wasn't until the Red Queen's notification reached Su Fan's ears that he breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

“Comrades! We did it!”

“Victory in our first battle! We successfully destroyed a ship of the same level!” Su Fan said excitedly.

The Great Elder and Xia Feifei were also very happy.

“Red Queen, scan a few more times to confirm if the opponent is truly destroyed,” Su Fan reminded; he felt it was better to be cautious.

“Scanning...”

“Confirmed that the enemy ship has been destroyed; no life signs can be detected,” the Red Queen replied.

“Very good! Well done!”

“Red Queen, jump there immediately. Let's go collect the loot!” Su Fan said with a smile.

The kongming mothership soon jumped to the vicinity of the enemy ship's wreckage.

Looking at the ship that had already shattered into countless pieces of debris before him, Su Fan wanted to cry but had no tears.

“This... what loot is left? It's all been blown to bits!”

“The C900 Planet-Destroying Cannon is too powerful. The opponent was unprepared and didn't have their energy shield open, so all the energy poured into the hull. It would be strange if it didn't explode,” Xia Feifei analyzed.

“Red Queen, turn on the scanners to sweep the area and see if there are any useful items left,” Su Fan could only order helplessly.

“Feifei, see? Destroying the enemy ship wasn't very useful. We wasted the energy of the cannon shells and gained almost nothing.”

“If it weren't for the fact that they happened to be near the Lava Planet and I was worried they might discover the Lava Stones on it, I wouldn't have even bothered to attack them.”

“It's a loss!”

“Aren't there still some large pieces of wreckage? We can collect them and melt them down for recycling,” Xia Feifei suggested.

“Yeah, let's collect as much as we can,” Su Fan nodded.
