Chapter 178 The storm is coming
Several days have passed since the incident happened. Netizens who were originally discussing the matter hotly on Starnet suddenly discovered something: the incident at Su Wuyan's concert, which was originally very popular, was gradually not mentioned by many people. After that, even the topic about mermaids and Zerg was gradually disappearing.
At first everyone thought that the heat had slowly dropped because fewer people were discussing it. However, when someone discovered that the post they had sent out had disappeared silently the next day, they finally realized that it was not because of the drop in heat at all. It was obvious that someone was behind the scenes and directly started the Star Network cleanup mode.
People were very angry about this and launched protests on Starnet. However, they could not find out who was behind the protests. They could only leave messages on the major official blogs, hoping that the matter would be thoroughly investigated.
However, while everyone's attention was focused on StarNet, something big happened in reality.
The Zerg broke through the defense line of the capital planet from somewhere, and a Zerg team appeared on the capital planet and began to plunder and kill wantonly.
The First Legion, as the guard army, immediately launched a siege operation. However, during their pursuit and interception, the Zerg seemed to have suddenly disappeared, and no trace of them could be found.
Because this Zerg attack caused huge casualties, the people complained bitterly, and the general of the First Legion became the target of public criticism.
However, just when public opinion was raging and demanding that the general of the First Legion come out to give everyone an explanation, news came out that the general of the First Legion had been assassinated and his life was in danger.
Everyone was in an uproar.
[There is a conspiracy. I have a bad feeling. I always feel that there is a huge conspiracy hidden in this matter. ]
[Now even the general of the First Legion has run into trouble, and those missing Zerg have not been found. Just thinking about it makes people shudder.]
[Yeah, I’m afraid to go out now, for fear that I’ll run into those Zerg somewhere, and then I’ll be really doomed.]
[Why do I feel like something big is about to happen?]
[I agree. Ever since the Seventh Legion incident, the atmosphere on the Capital Planet seems to have changed.]
[Immediately book a ship to another galaxy. I want to go out and hide from the limelight.]
[What are you thinking? Even the capital planet is invaded by Zerg. Do you think you can be safe if you go to other planets?]
[Please, don't hit me, I'm really afraid of death...]
【…】
People were discussing the matter on Starnet. Some people with a keen sense of smell had already begun to prepare a way out for themselves, and some were secretly trying to gather information, but the results were not ideal.
While everyone's attention was drawn to the assassination and injury of the general of the First Legion, they were unaware that storms had already arrived within each legion.
In the military headquarters, in a spacious and technologically-inspired conference room, six of the seven legions were all present. In addition to Feng Chengyuan who had disappeared on the star field battlefield, even Lu Jin, the general of the First Legion who was rumored to have been assassinated and injured, also showed up.
"Today's meeting is held because of the Zerg that appeared on the capital planet. As the defenders of the capital planet, we failed to eliminate those Zerg and even let them disappear. This is simply a huge hidden danger for the capital planet. Doesn't General Lu have anything to say?"
At the beginning of the meeting, Mu De'an directly attacked Lu Jin. The other generals knew exactly what was going on and had no intention of getting involved immediately.
It was true that Lu Jin had been stabbed before, and it was also true that he had been injured. Although he had been admitted to the treatment cabin to treat his injuries, his complexion had not yet recovered.
Hearing Mu De'an's question, Lu Jin couldn't help but sneer and asked, "What does Admiral Mu mean by that? My First Legion took action as soon as the Zerg appeared, but I want to ask, how did the Third Legion's defense line outside the capital planet get breached by those Zerg?"
"The outer defense line is not limited to our Third Army. We should ask other admirals for their answers."
"The matter of the Zerg is the most important. Is it still useful to worry about it now? What we need to do now is to catch those Zerg first!"
"That's right. Now is not the time to blame each other."
"..."
Hearing that the two were going to target them, the generals of the other legions became restless and began to speak out.
After hundreds of years of development, the connections between the major legions have become somewhat awkward. In fact, everyone secretly wants to swallow up the other's power, but on the surface they all act as if they are very united. When something really happens, they try their best to throw all the responsibility away, for fear of being involved in any way.
Mu De'an raised the corners of his lips slightly, as if he had calculated this, and spoke slowly: "General Lu, the Zerg lurked in the capital planet and launched a large-scale massacre. You have an unshirkable responsibility. I even suspect that there is a loophole in your internal management that allowed the Zerg to take advantage of it... So, next I hope that your First Legion can accept the joint inspection of our other legions!"
"no!"
As soon as Mu De'an finished speaking, Lu Jin directly and sternly refused.
Such a request would never be granted no matter which legion it was made from. It was simply a slap in the face of the First Legion, especially when it was happening at the time of dividing interests among the Seventh Legion. It was obvious that they wanted to reduce the benefits they had gained.
Lu Jin looked at Mu De'an viciously, and even suspected in his heart whether this incident was caused by this old guy behind the scenes?
But on second thought, how could this old guy possibly control those Zergs?
"No? General Lu, what qualifications do you have to say these two words now?"
Mu De'an sneered.
Lu Jin's face darkened completely, and he angrily shouted, "Mu De'an, don't go too far!"
"Haha, this matter is not up to me. The purpose of holding this meeting is to solicit everyone's opinions. Let's vote now."
Mu De'an seemed to be deliberately provoking Lu Jin, with a half-smile on his face as if he was sure of success.
Others also had thoughts rolling in their minds, their eyes gleamed with light, and they began to secretly calculate.
Everyone knew that the First Legion's mistake this time was a good opportunity to stand up and condemn it. However, when various interests were involved, it was difficult for everyone to stand up and find fault with it. However, no one expected that the Third Legion would be so brave and dare to stand up and confront the First Legion directly.
Since some people have already reached the front, if they don’t do something, they will probably have to watch their vested interests being divided up by other legions.
“Agree to a joint review.”
"Seconded."
"Seconded……"
"..."
Everyone expressed their opinions, and no one stood on Lu Jin's side when it came to interests.
Lu Jin was so angry that his chest heaved. He didn't expect these people to be like hyenas, biting and not letting go once they got the chance. Especially Mu De'an, who underestimated him.
"You guys...are fine, very good!"
Lu Jin was extremely angry. He felt something growing in his chest and then rushing directly to his brain.
The next second, he heard a scream, and when he raised his eyes again, Lu Jin felt that his eyes were already blood red.
