Chapter 1963: You Are Under Arrest
Even if Shaye thought about it with her toes, she never expected the Decree Troops to get involved!
Yagang didn't want to stop casting either, or else his twelve eyes would have been wasted for nothing!
At this moment, Jiangnan was still hacking at that Mechanical Race member, hacking with great gusto!
The only ones still fighting on the field were Jiangnan and Wenge, the Deaf and Blind Duo!
Just then, Yagang struggled and said:
꒰ঌ҉̛(¬益¬‧̣̥̇)໒҉̛꒱ "My Angel Race is the Tenth Sequence! And the Angel Tribunal has the authority to arrest and punish offenders!"
"This proposal was also passed; everyone in the Starry Sky knows it!"
"My Angel Tribunal is handling our own affairs, with no illegal actions. What does it have to do with the Sacred Law Council? Why are you meddling?"
At that, the Mechanical Race member spoke in a cold voice:
(〃☼_☼) "Silicon-based Mechanical Race, Class-B authority holder, Tao! Now, in the capacity of the Seventh Detachment Captain of the Decree Troops, I am informing you all!"
"You have violated Article 17649 of the Starry Sky Laws! Planet Destroyer-level beings are not allowed to deploy Domain on Wanxiang Star!"
"If you must fight, you must avoid the main buildings on Wanxiang Star and submit an application to the Sacred Law Star Palace in advance for approval. Only after approval do you have the right to fight!"
"May I ask! Has the Angel Tribunal submitted a report? If so! Please show the Wanxiang Star Combat Permit!"
Shaye almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Goddamn Combat Permit—who has that thing?
Once the Starry Sky Laws were brought out, how could they withstand an investigation?
She could only argue:
꒰ঌ(˶･ˇ皿ˇ･)໒꒱ "But my Angel Tribunal has law enforcement authority and has passed a resolution by the Council. How can you..."
However, Tao didn't give Shaye a chance to finish!
(〃⊚_⊚) "Then let me ask! Is your Celestial Kingdom law greater, or the Starry Sky law greater? This is Wanxiang Star! Is this your Celestial Kingdom?"
"Who will bear the consequences of a Planet Destroyer's reckless fighting?"
"I'll give you three seconds to stop casting, or else you'll be charged with provoking a disturbance. Depending on the severity of the situation, penalties such as detention and imprisonment will be imposed!"
At this point, Yagang couldn't stay tough anymore. How could they possibly apply to the Sacred Law Star Palace for something like this?
By the time the Combat Permit was approved, it would be too late!
Then, the Insect Race member of the Decree Troops whistled:
(๑מּൠמּ) "What's the matter? Do you want to go sit in Ming He Death Prison for a few years? The heavy criminals in there are all bored out of their minds!"
"They love little angels like you, all white and tender. I hear it's really exciting~!"
At those words, Shaye's face turned pale. She covered her chest and staggered back two steps!
Yagang even swallowed his saliva while covering his rear, feeling a gust of sinister wind approaching!
The few angels exchanged glances and finally sighed!
Even if the Celestial Kingdom had the hardest head, it didn't dare to clash head-on with the Sacred Law Council. It was the absolute authority in the Starry Sky!
Even though the Angel Race was one of the member races of the Sacred Law Council, it still didn't work!
Yagang gritted his teeth:
꒰ঌ҉̛(￢益￢˶)໒҉̛꒱ "I'll stop! I'll stop right now!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the pupil projections above Jiangnan and Wenge's heads all disappeared!
Damn it! So his twelve eyes really were wasted for nothing!
As Yagang interrupted the spell, all the senses that had been stripped from Jiangnan and Wenge were fully restored!
Jiangnan was still hacking away over there!
٩(ꐦ▼口▼ꐦ)۶ "Ah bah ah... die! All of you die! Who can subdue me? Aiyah... eh..."
Just as he was hacking with gusto, Jiangnan suddenly froze. His senses had returned?
He looked around himself. More than a dozen angel eggs were scattered about, and quite a few angels were covered in blood, sitting on the ground in terror!
As for the over a thousand Decree Troops, they had surrounded him tightly, all with red light flashing in their eyes!
Standing in front of him was Tao. Had he just been hacking at it?
Not an angel?
Cold sweat beaded on Jiangnan's forehead. He instantly recognized the emblem of the Decree Troops!
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
He looked down. At this moment, he was still firmly gripping Olivia's wrist!
Olivia was sitting on the ground, having already reverted to her Apocalypse Race form!
But her hair was a mess. Her body was bruised and purple in patches, her face swollen!
Her clothes were tattered like rags, and she was missing two front teeth!
At this moment, she was sitting on the ground, wiping her tears and sobbing!
(#)ᵒ̴̶̷̥́﹏ก̀(#) "Wuu..."
Jiangnan swallowed his saliva:
∑(°口°◕) "Hiss! What's going on? What happened? Why do you look like you've been violated?"
"Who did it? Tell me! Your Nan Ge will avenge you!"
Olivia: (#)༎ຶ凸༎ຶ(#) "Waaah!"
Who did it? It was you who did it!
Using me for several minutes to chop the Strong Interaction Force Shield!
What's the difference between that and smashing a stone with an egg?
[From Olivia's Resentment Value +1008!]
[From Olivia...]
Jiangnan's expression turned serious:
(ಠĹ̯ಠ◕) "Tell me! Don't be afraid! We can't suffer in silence. What exactly happened?"
Olivia slowly healed her injuries:
(#)ᵒ̴̶̷̥́凸ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀(#) "No shorrow, fank you for your gare, everyfing went shmoothly—uuh~"
She couldn't exactly tell Nan Shen that he had grabbed her chest and run wildly, using her as a big knife to chop angels, could she?
She had her face to think about!
Some truths were better left unknown!
However, Jiangnan was even more puzzled. He remembered holding a knife, didn't he?
How did it turn into Olivia?
Had he misjudged?
On the other side, Wenge, having recovered his senses and stopped self-destructing, saw that it was the Decree Troops. He immediately squatted down with his hands on his head!
His movements were extremely swift!
The Insect Race member who came to put shackles on Wenge was surprised:
(๑מּൠמּ) "Hey, buddy? You're pretty experienced, huh?"
Wenge squeezed out a dry smile:
୧(⌒ㅂ⌒٥)୨ "Ahaha. I've eaten prison food for a few years. Don't laugh at me!"
As Jiangnan watched the Decree Troops start arresting people, he glanced at Tao in front of him and swallowed his saliva again.
"You guys are..."
Before Jiangnan could finish, Tao said coldly:
(〃‾́ー‾́) "For inciting a disturbance on Wanxiang Star, engaging in a brawl, and disrupting the peace of the Starry Sky."
"I am now informing you: you are under arrest!"
Jiangnan: ???
He immediately panicked! Huh? Arresting me?
Was the guy who got beaten up also going to be caught?
Olivia quickly said:
(๑ŏ﹏ŏ) "Nan Shen! Don't resist! Or else you'll really be taken to prison!"
Jiangnan laughed awkwardly:
(•︠ㅂ•︡٥) "Ahaha. This must be a misunderstanding. Listen to my excuse—I..."
Tao: (≖_≖〃)...
"It's already an excuse. Why should I listen?"
Then he took out shackles and walked toward Jiangnan!
Jiangnan: !!!
੧੧(´-﹏-`◕) "No! Not an excuse! It's an explanation! This has nothing to do with me, Jiangnan. We were just passing by, and then..."
Tao said indifferently: "The details will be clear after interrogation. If you are not the main culprit, you will be released without charge."
"Please cooperate with our law enforcement! Otherwise, don't blame us for rough methods!"
Jiangnan's eyes flickered. They really wanted to catch him? This wasn't good!
(●ớ₃ờ) "Then... fine! But before that, I have a not-too-excessive request!"
Tao: "Speak!"
Jiangnan scratched his head and smiled shyly:
୧(◕⁼̴ꇴ⁼̴) "Well... I have a lot of eggs that fell on the ground. Can I pick them up? Otherwise, I'm afraid bad guys will take them!"
Tao said flatly: "Since they are your personal property, go ahead and take care of them properly."
Jiangnan was thrilled and immediately ran off to pick up the eggs!
Olivia was spitting blood. Even at a time like this, he was still picking up eggs?
At this moment, the angels were all shackled and being escorted onto the ship!
But Shaye was frantic:
꒰ঌ(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅)໒꒱ "What do you mean, his property? Those are reincarnated angels! You can't give them to him! How can you let him pick up the eggs?"
Saying this, she charged toward Jiangnan. But the Mechanical Race member escorting Shaye deformed his arm and extended a high-voltage electric baton!
He directly jabbed it into Shaye's kidney, making her twitch and roll her eyes!
(〃⊡皿⊡) "Shut up! Behave! You can speak, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court!"
Shaye was furious, but under these circumstances, she couldn't resist the Decree Troops!
She could only watch helplessly as Jiangnan collected all the angel eggs!
After picking up the eggs, Jiangnan didn't run away. Instead, he obediently came to Tao and held out his hands!
He let Tao cuff him!
However, Jiangnan was surprised to find that even though he was cuffed, his abilities were not restricted at all!
But looking at Olivia and the angels, who were cuffed and obviously unable to use their abilities, why was he...
Jiangnan glanced suspiciously at Tao, but Tao only glanced at him without speaking and escorted him onto the ship!
There was no emotional fluctuation visible in his mechanical eyes!
Jiangnan's eyes flickered. So things weren't that simple, huh?
Thus, everyone on the scene was arrested, including Wenge's underlings, and even the Gamma Body was restrained!
In the star ship corridor, the Decree Troops escorted the crowd, distributing them to different interrogation rooms for detention!
Shaye and a few angels glared hatefully at Jiangnan!
Just you wait, this isn't over!
Jiangnan was completely unafraid and even flipped Shaye off!
(ꐦ°᷄.̫°᷅)凸
Even Olivia didn't escape arrest. She looked at Jiangnan pitifully!
(๑ᵒ̴̶̷̥́﹏ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀)
Going out with Nan Shen was too dangerous. Not only did she have to suffer heart-wrenching pain, but she was also used as a big knife!
And now she even had to go to jail?
Wenge kept winking at Jiangnan:
(#◔↼◔ิ#) "It's okay! Don't panic! I've got people inside the Decree Troops!"
"Really solid connections! Soon, someone will let us out, and their attitude will become respectful too. Just you wait and see! Aiyah~!"
Before he finished speaking, a Mechanical Race member jabbed him with an electric baton, making him jerk!
"Shut up! Behave! Get in there and wait for interrogation!"
Jiangnan clicked his tongue. The authority of the Sacred Law Council was terrifying. Even big shots like Planet Destroyers had to obediently cooperate when facing the Decree Troops?
Everyone was taken into custody. But Tao didn't speak. He kept escorting Jiangnan deeper into the star ship!
Only when there was no one left in the corridor did he enter the deepest interrogation room!
He locked Jiangnan to the table and separated them with an energy light prison!
Then, Tao sat on the opposite side of the interrogation table. With a wave of his mechanical hand!
A service robot directly brought a cup of steaming fragrant tea and placed it on the table!
Jiangnan was stunned. Damn? The treatment was this good? They even gave him tea?
Was he really invited for tea?
Tao's mechanical eyes flickered, and Jiangnan's handcuffs automatically unlocked!
(〃¤_¤) "Cloud Pine Tea. I recall that you humans from Lan Xing love to drink tea, and you use tea to entertain guests, right?"
Jiangnan's gaze sharpened. So it was as he expected...
