Chapter 306
Your brother Sam is right there!
After receiving the order, Firefly inquired with her fellow cavalrymen and learned the details.
During the time she led her team on a mission.
Grammer... was engulfed in civil war.
Although the civil war ended in victory for Her Majesty the Queen.
But after receiving the Empress's order to disband the cavalry.
For some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling.
After leading her team to quickly eliminate the mission objectives, she then led her team back to the capital planet.
However, the moment she ran out of the cabin and saw what was in front of her...
Her expression froze instantly.
There was no welcoming party for her return as she had imagined.
There was no man who would gently stroke her head and say, "Welcome back."
only……
An endless, burning ruin.
The scorched earth, collapsed buildings, and billowing black smoke...
The whole world seemed to have been thrown into purgatory, turned into scorched earth.
"This...this is..."
Liu Ying stood there blankly, the color draining from her face in an instant.
"What...is going on?"
She stared blankly at the hellish scene before her, her mind a complete void.
Is this... Grammer?
Is that her home?
No... impossible...
When she left, this place was still thriving...
"Brother Sam...?"
She called out tentatively, her voice trembling uncontrollably.
However, all that answered her was the desolate ruins and the howling cold wind.
That ominous premonition, like a cold, venomous snake, instantly gripped her heart once more.
"No...no way..."
Firefly shook her head blankly, unable to accept the cruel reality before her.
He didn't even have time to pay attention to his equally shocked teammates beside him.
She started running, stumbling and staggering, deeper into the ruins.
"Brother Sam! Where are you?!"
"Captain Isolde! Everyone!"
"I'm back! Where are you all?!"
Her cries echoed through the deathly silent ruins, sounding so hollow and powerless.
She came to the streets she used to know, but now only ruins remained.
She saw the laboratory that had once given her knowledge and warmth, now completely collapsed into a pile of twisted steel.
She saw the military base, which had long since been razed to the ground.
along the way.
She saw countless mech wrecks and countless Zerg corpses.
I also saw... countless cold corpses belonging to my compatriots.
Her heart sank little by little, and deep despair overwhelmed her.
"Brother Sam... answer me..."
She cried out, like a lost child helplessly searching for her only support in this apocalyptic ruin.
Suddenly, she remembered something.
"Yes... Your Majesty the Empress!"
Her Majesty the Queen trusts Brother Sam so much, she must know where he is.
And Sam might be with Her Majesty the Queen right now!
Thinking of this, Liu Ying hurriedly ran towards the palace.
however.
When they arrived at the palace square, Liuying's heart sank again.
The once magnificent plaza of the capital planet was now a scene of utter devastation.
The ground was littered with shattered mechs and corpses, as if a brutal war had just taken place.
the most important is……
"Where is the palace...?"
Liu Ying stared blankly at the place where Her Majesty the Empress should be.
What should have been the most magnificent palace in the capital has now been reduced to ruins, with only walls and pillars remaining.
The ruins were littered with corpses.
Before the ruined palace, the massive gate that symbolized Grammer's supreme power remained tightly shut.
The entire palace was covered with a barrier of the Empress's spiritual power, exuding a cold aura that kept strangers away.
"The palace... has been sealed away?"
Firefly stared blankly at the door, and the last glimmer of hope in her heart began to waver.
And what about Her Majesty the Empress?
Where is Sam?
Are they... inside?
She grasped at the last straw and ran frantically toward the door.
However, due to the Queen's mental barrier, they were unable to even enter the palace.
"Brother Sam! Are you in there?!"
"Please, answer me!"
She pounded on the mental barrier blocking her way, crying and pleading.
However, the door did not respond.
While she was crying out in despair, she didn't notice anything amiss.
Less than three meters to her right.
Beneath a massive stone pillar... a person leans quietly.
It was a young man with black hair.
He still had a gentle smile on his face, as if he were just asleep.
The audience outside the canopy had their hearts pounding when they saw this!
【Aaaaaaah! He's right next to you! Firefly! He's right next to you!!!】
Turn around! Please, just turn around and look at me!!!
It's Sam! That's your brother Sam!!!
No... please don't let this opportunity slip by...
All the spectators were screaming and praying wildly in their hearts.
next moment.
As if hearing the shouts of the audience, Liu Ying looked around.
Then... he looked at the man who was leaning against a stone pillar with his eyes closed not far away.
All the spectators outside the canopy held their breath at that moment, their hearts pounding in their throats.
She saw it! She's about to see it!
[Quick! Firefly! Look over there! Your brother Sam is right there!]
Please, please, just one look, please!
However, the audience forgot one thing.
That is……
But her gaze lingered on his face for less than half a second.
Then... it was moved away.
Her eyes held only sorrow and anxiety, devoid of even a trace of... discernment.
The audience was stunned by what they saw.
Then they remembered.
Fireflies...don't know Sam.
Because Sam... no.
It should be said that Lu Li never took off his mask in front of her.
Therefore, Firefly... didn't recognize this face at all.
In her two years of memories, "Brother Sam" was always that mature man wearing a white lab coat and a white mask.
And in front of them was a young man with black hair who looked very young, wearing a black combat suit...
She subconsciously mistook him for some unknown guard who had unfortunately died in battle.
Although she was filled with grief over the loss of her companion.
But at this moment, she had no time to stop mourning for each of her fallen compatriots.
All she wants now is to find her brother Sam.
"Brother Sam..." Liu Ying murmured, looking at the palace shrouded in seals.
Just then, the members of the Firefly Squad finally caught up.
"Captain! I just asked the Iron Cavalry sisters who stayed in the city."
"They said that Her Majesty the Queen apparently only brought the remaining members of her personal guard into the palace to sleep, and Dr. Sam wasn't there!"
