Chapter 625 Threat
The chairman of the board next to Sota, Renn, quickly asked, "Pisa, why aren't you guarding the palace? What are you doing here?"
Pisa panicked and said, "Chairman, something terrible has happened! The palace is on fire!"
"The palace is on fire?" The chairman was slightly startled and quickly asked, "What happened?"
Pissa said in a panic, "I don't know what happened. Our soldiers and warplanes suddenly all disappeared, and then the palace caught fire."
Upon hearing this, Sota frowned and quickly changed the screen. Sure enough, he saw his palace engulfed in flames. He immediately shouted angrily, "Why is the palace like this?"
At that moment, a Force warrior rushed in, saying urgently, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! All the weapons and ammunition in the palace have disappeared, as have our newly built palace and treasury."
"what?"
Sota's expression changed drastically. He grabbed the Force warrior by the throat and roared, "What on earth is going on? What are Lao Shan and the others doing?"
At this moment, the chairman had already gotten a general idea through remote control and said, "Your Majesty, Lao Shan and the others are dead. Someone has infiltrated the palace and taken control of the main control system."
"Do you know who did it? Find him and kill him," Sota said angrily.
The chairman clicked rapidly on the holographic computer, and after a moment an X-wing fighter appeared on the screen. He said, "Your Majesty, this fighter is flying from Planet Kanar to Planet Vatu. Our people tried to track it, but it managed to shake us off by using stealth."
Upon hearing this, Sota flew into a rage: "You, Cohen! I will make the entire planet Canal disappear from the universe!"
This so-called Cohen is the king of the Canal Empire.
At this moment, Cohen was having a meeting with some of the Empire's elites in the conference room. Only about ten minutes had passed since the outbreak of the war, and through the footage, Cohen had already seen the vast disparity in strength between his side and the enemy. This was clearly a case of "injuring eight hundred enemies while destroying a thousand of our own!" So he quickly convened a meeting to discuss countermeasures.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in the center of the conference table, and Sota's image appeared in the middle of the table, startling Cohen and the others.
“Cohen,” Sota’s image said angrily, “you dared to send people to destroy my palace. I will make the entire planet Canal pay with your life.”
Upon hearing this, Cohen was startled again, then said coldly, "Sota, what are you up to now? When did I ever send anyone to destroy your palace?"
"Hmph, you know perfectly well whether it's true or not."
Cohen, after all, was the king of the Canal Empire. How could he be intimidated by Sota's few words? He was already furious that Sota had started the war, and now he dared to try to intimidate him into surrendering without a fight? How could he possibly accept that? So, not to be outdone, he coldly sneered, "Sota, you think you can make me surrender without a fight by intimidation? Dream on! Although our Canal is far inferior to your Origin Planet, if you want to destroy our Canal, you'll have to see if you have the ability. Besides, you'll have to ask the United Nations if they're willing."
"Fine, fine, Cohen, you're playing dumb with me, aren't you? I'll make sure you die knowing why."
As he spoke, an image of an X-wing fighter appeared next to Sota's image. He said angrily, "Cohen, open your eyes and look carefully. This fighter appeared over our Origin Star two hours ago, and it took off from here. Do you dare say that this fighter wasn't sent by you? How dare you destroy my palace? Even if the United Nations intervenes, I want to destroy your planet Kanar."
As he spoke, Sota's image flashed and then disappeared.
Cohen and the others were completely baffled. No one present knew what was going on. After a moment, Cohen said to the person sitting next to him, "Strategist, quickly investigate the origin of this fighter jet."
In no time, all the information about the fighter jet was found. The strategist said, "Your Majesty, the fighter jet did indeed take off from here, but it did not go to the Origin Planet. Instead, it stopped on a small planet called Vatu. The fighter jet is now taking off from Vatu and heading this way."
Upon hearing this, Cohen was slightly startled and said, "Quickly check if our military has this fighter jet."
“No need to investigate,” the strategist said. “This fighter jet doesn’t belong to any empire because it was developed and assembled by a man named Obi.”
"Who is Obi?" Cohen asked again.
“Obi was originally a slave in the Sota Royal Palace. He later escaped from the palace and, after wandering around for a while, finally settled on our planet Kanar.”
Cohen nodded and said, "Quickly lock onto this fighter jet and see if we can contact the people on board."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Just as Obi was piloting his fighter jet away from Planet Vatu, several red dots appeared on his radar. Obi said, "Boss, we're being followed."
Judging from the situation, Obi's fighter jet has been completely surrounded by the fighter jets sent by Sota.
As soon as he finished speaking, an unfamiliar voice came through the walkie-talkie: "The fighter jets ahead must stop immediately, or we'll open fire."
On the planet Canal, the strategist said, "Your Majesty, please look, this fighter jet has been surrounded by the enemy."
Cohen said, "Get in touch with Obi right away. We need to confirm whether what Sota said is true."
He needed to determine if this was a conspiracy by Sota. If Sota's palace was truly destroyed, it would be tremendous good news for Cohen, allowing him to launch a full-scale counterattack without hesitation. Since Sota would be without reserves and supplies, the tide of battle would turn in his favor. If it was a hoax, then it was a Sota conspiracy. Of course, he didn't believe that Obi alone could destroy Sota's palace. Therefore, he needed to ascertain the situation before making any further plans.
Considering Obi's future identity and status, Chao Bufan thought long and hard before saying, "Obi, let me show you your strength first."
Upon hearing this, Obi was a little confused and asked, puzzled, "Boss, what do you mean?"
Chao Bufan smiled faintly and said, "Of course we'll fight! We'll attack from behind the Sota army. If you can't hold them off, just let me know and I'll bombard them with cannons. But you'd better be careful not to destroy my fighter jet, or I'll deduct it from your share."
