Chapter 233 Boom!

"Dammit!" Captain Zorl swore and took off his helmet. "What are you doing? Have you gone crazy?" Why the hell was she encouraging him to blow himself up with the hostages?

Even captain Vangar was looking at her similarly and thinking the same thing to himself probably.

Scarlet folded her arms and looked at captain Zorl, she was so relaxed and confident as if none of the events occurring were of special concern to her.

"I am not crazy, I have already set measures in place to ensure that they all come out alive, including Anton. I hope that when it's time for his own execution, they will kill him the same way he killed his victims."

Tion was not far from Scarlet and when the count down entered into the last minute, he attempted to drag her away but for some reason unexplainable to him, he could not move her. She was as heavy as ten thousand large rocks.

"We have to go." he said desperately.

"No, we can all stay, nothing will happen." she answered.

There was a lot going on at the moment for example, Adler and Beord were pulling the female mecha warrior out of the wreckage or what remained of her spaceship.

The female officer had passed out when her ship fell down to the ground with a large force in the midst of the chaos while officers were moving backwards.?She was unconscious and unresponsive, there was a large cut on her forehead and the bones in her arm were broken, One of her legs was bent backwards, all that could be detected from the health bracelet on her wrist was a faint pulse.

"Hey, Amara!" Adler shouted her name and slapped her cheek.?"Wake up."

"Just take her back to the castle." Beord shouted at Adler and he took off rushing in the direction of his sister that had yet to evacuate the danger zone.

As he run, he shouted, "Get my sister out of there, get her out of there right now."

Most officers were confused as well, was the evacuation real or not? If it was real, why was the governor sitting comfortably as if she was here to spectate an ordinary football match.

They also wondered why Tion, a large man was having such a difficult time lifting such a small woman out of there.

This did not skip the reporters as well as they commented on it.

"There is a lot of confusion at the scene of the crime because the governor is not leaving and from what we hear, the space pirates mecha is about to explode. Information reaching us is that the space pirate was identified by RGB officers as Anton or the back breaker as he likes to be called.

The company which manufactured the mecha has sent in the predictive value of the kind of damage the explosion could do. They say that half of the hospital is likely to be destroyed and everyone within?walking distance has been advised to stay as far away from the crime scene as possible."

Only Scarlet, Tion and the two captains were left within the distance of possible danger. Whether they stayed because of Scarlet's absolute confidence or simply because they could not leave her behind, not while the entire empire was watching anyway.

"Three, two one," Scarlet counted down.

"Boom!!" the loud sound of an explosion was heard from many miles away. The earth vibrated a bit causing the snow to fall down from terraces or buildings especially in the areas closest to the hospital.

Many people took cover, squatting down or holding on to trees and nearby sturdy things to remain stable.

It took about thirty seconds for everyone to settle down when it was done. And yet, now they realized that despite the loud sound of an explosion and the vibrating of the earth, the hospital building stood steady in place. Nothing had collapsed and with the exception of cracks in a few windows, everything was still standing.

"Get in there, now." Captain Zorl regained his senses and shouted at his men. f𝗿e𝗲𝘄𝗲bn𝐨𝚟𝚎l.com

Many people on the blue star who heard the explosion were worried, in the governor's castle, Mega closed her eyes and started to snivel.

Esong clenched his fist and pushed his face closer to the screen, as if he could somehow enter inside of it and get to the scene.

"What happened, Tion come in, where is my wife?"

"She is next to me general." he answered in a tense voice, "She is crazy, the governor is crazy." he let out his true thoughts accidentally.

The officers, followed by mecha warriors were not hesitant at all to enter the hospital building , after all, with an explosion of that size, the criminal had to be dead.

"Be careful, it could be a diversion." Captain Vangar reminded the men as they invaded the building bravely.

If nothing had exploded, this could be a trick by Anton to get his hands on more hostages.

Both captains were handed small tabs from which they watched the footage of the men going inside, some leaped in from the side windows and others broke in through the front door.

They found the hostages huddled together in a corner, the women who were trembling, held on to each other as if for dear life. They were crying, when the mecha warriors rescued them because they believed that they were destined to die when the timer on the explosive device went off.

"The hostages are safe and alive." Captain Zorl?and everyone else on the mission heard, "All three are alive, one is injured and unconscious but her life is in no danger."

"And the criminal?" Captain Vangar asked.

"Uhm, this is weird, I am not sure how to explain the situation." a mecha warrior answered. "We are uhm, dragging, or floating him outside."

"Dead or alive?" Captain Vangar asked.

"I am not sure, he blinked or moved his eyes, captain you are going to have to see this for yourself. None of has has encountered anything like it before."

The families of the hostages were escorted into the hospital to meet their families and receive assurance that they were alive and safe.

Captain Zorl allowed reporters to follow them because after the tension, fears and tears, it should be a heartwarming scene to watch them reunite with their loved ones, especially the little green eyed girl and her mother.

Mecha warriors came out of the building and above them was a round transparent big thick sphere. Inside of the sphere was Anton, the space pirate, in his birthday suit. He was trapped in what looked like jelly, very sticky hard jelly and the only part of his body which was moving were his eyes.

Nobody had ever seen anything like that and they all stared, some even taking out their phones or using their terminals to take pictures.

"What is that?"

"What happened to him?"

"Why is he naked?"

"Where is his mecha suit?"

Many different questions were asked but only the two captains at the scene looked at Scarlet and asked for an explanation with their eyes.

She was on her terminal sending a voice message to her husband who had sent ten messages and called her three times ever since she arrived at the crime scene.

She even took a selfie and added it to one of the texts.

The mecha warriors, meanwhile were confused, "How do we get him out of this thing?"
