402: Submarine attacked, Ellie died

Pan Han saw the enemy combat power analysis provided by the mech and couldn't help but curse.

After putting on the mech, the enemy's missiles couldn't do anything to him because they couldn't catch up.

As long as Pan Han didn't get hit directly by the enemy's autocannons within 200 meters, he could dodge them.

But the problem was, his own small missiles couldn't do much against the warships either.

At most, they could destroy the enemy's radar and targeting systems.

Only by getting close and fighting inside the warship would it work.

However, at this moment, Pan Han suddenly calmed down.

He had just killed four squads of soldiers and four pilots.

If he were alone, he wouldn't be afraid of angering the Americans.

But he was now the leader of the Knight Order, and half of this organization's industries were in the US.

If he went too far, would it cause a chain reaction?

Would the Knight Order decline because of this?

Was an organization that had lasted for hundreds of years going to be finished just over half a year after being handed to him?

What about the jobs of 100,000 people? What about those 100,000 families?

He still relied on the Knight Order's arms company to manufacture weapons for the apocalypse.

Should he stop now?

If he flew away now, the enemy would have only lost some soldiers and a few planes, and there would still be room for reconciliation.

If he didn't leave and attacked directly...

This was an entire fleet, with over 1,000 soldiers.

Would the Americans accept this loss?

Would their public opinion directly urge the government to start a war?

How did Sakura Country die back then?

Gradually, the anger in Pan Han's heart faded. He looked at Knight Island, then at the wreckage and severed limbs on the beach, and calmed down.

"This is not the time for an all-out war! I'll swallow this insult!"

Pan Han thought for a long time and finally decided to fly back to the Dragon Country or Myanmar Northern Region immediately.

He would find someone to repair Knight Island later.

"I hope Ellie and the others have already escaped far enough!"

"Mech, we're going back to Myanmar Northern Region."

"Understood, Master. Please rest well; leave the rest to me," the mech AI immediately replied.

A route appeared on the helmet screen, taking a total of two hours.

Just as the mech was preparing to increase its altitude, a white spot suddenly appeared on the sea, fifteen kilometers away.

Immediately after, a tall and thick water column erupted.

It was mixed with mud, sand, and some metal fragments.

The mech gave an immediate alert, and Pan Han hurriedly checked the screen to see what had happened.

"Damn it! No!" He shouted and flew over immediately.

It took him less than half a minute to cover this distance, but it felt like half a year had passed.

"No way! It can't be! Please, don't!"

When he landed on the beach and looked at the fragments, oil slicks, and some human remains in front of him.

What else could it be but a submarine??

"Impossible!" Pan Han opened his visor, covered his eyes with his hands, unable to believe the fact before him!

"Ellie!!"

Pan Han roared, immediately put on his visor, and had the mech start searching for signs of life.

One minute later, the mech reported: "Reporting, Master. No signs of life detected. I fear everyone has perished."

Pan Han flew around the center of the explosion like a headless fly.

He had to see a person if they were alive, or a corpse if they were dead!

Suddenly, a mutilated female corpse floated up from the sea.

Pan Han's heart tightened. Could it be Ellie?

At this moment, he was extremely nervous. He flew over slowly, his eyes opening and closing intermittently.

Finally, flying above the corpse, he opened his eyes and looked—it was actually Ayaka Kurai.

Was this good news or bad news?

Seeing her corpse meant the submarine had been destroyed.

But since he hadn't seen Ellie yet, it meant there was still a sliver of hope.

Pan Han looked at Ayaka Kurai's corpse; her left arm had been blown off, her hand was gone, and her lower legs were missing too.

Her abdomen was ripped open, her internal organs were dragging in the water, and her face was covered in blood, yet she was actually smiling.

It was as if she had been liberated.

Pan Han understood that the explosion had been too intense; the torpedo fired by the American nuclear submarine had tremendous power.

It was designed to deal with large destroyers, cruisers, or aircraft carriers.

For such a small submarine, having any remains left at all was fortunate.

Just then, something bumped into Pan Han's heel from behind, and he was suddenly startled.

As if destined by fate, Pan Han didn't dare to turn around, but he knew that what was behind him was Ellie!

At this moment, time seemed to have stopped.

Everything around him seemed to have been muted, and even the air had solidified.

Pan Han's mind went blank, and fragments of his time with Ellie flooded towards him like meteors.

"Hello, Boss!"

Ellie, wearing a tight-fitting combat suit, appeared in Pan Han's mind, waving both hands to greet him.

She was smiling, running, wanting to get close to Pan Han quickly.

"Boss, you're going to be a father!"

When she was very close to Pan Han, Ellie said this.

But as soon as she finished speaking, her body began to dissipate like sand, and a gust of wind blew, and Ellie was gone.

People say that tears are hot.

But Pan Han absolutely didn't believe it now, because a cold tear was hanging on his face.

A bone-chilling cold!

It was like a diamond at absolute zero, piercing his face and seeping into his marrow.

He didn't know how much time had passed before Pan Han finally turned his head.

Eye to eye, Ellie's head was floating at his feet.

Pan Han finally broke down!

He picked up Ellie's head, held it in his arms, and sat on the surface of the water, wailing.

A desperate Intermediate Evolver was wailing.

He couldn't even feel the heartache anymore; there was only a sense of desolation supporting him as he floated on the sea.

Pan Han fell into deep self-reproach.

If he hadn't made Ellie his personal secretary, this wouldn't have happened today.

If he hadn't let her go to Sakura Country the day before yesterday, this wouldn't have happened today.

If he hadn't insisted on meeting Ayaka Kurai, Ellie wouldn't have brought her to Knight Island.

If they hadn't come, Ellie wouldn't have died!

Even if he had just let Ellie stay by his side at the very last moment, she would have been fine!

But instead, all the cause and effect fell upon this young woman.

"Why at this time? I was clearly about to become a father!"

"And you left me, taking the child with you!"

...

The night was cold!

The water was cold!

She was cold!

He was also cold!

Pan Han no longer had any emotions; his mind was filled with only one thing: conviction.

The conviction to kill everyone!

"Tonight, everyone will be buried with you and our child!"

"Leave no one alive!"

Suddenly, Pan Han flew into the sky. With tears in his eyes, he kissed Ellie one last time.

Then, he put the head into his storage space and said to the mech again: "No matter how you do it, kill them for me! Even if I die, you must keep killing!"

"Master, I will absolutely execute your order. But you are in a very bad state right now, and the opponent is too powerful. I suggest..."

"Mech, execute the order!"

"Master, may I ask one more thing? Why do humans do so much for those who have died?"

"I don't care about human affairs. But if someone sacrifices their life for me, I will certainly sacrifice myself for them!"

"Understood, Master. I am willing to sacrifice myself with you!"
